Hi
[edit]Can u please remove the message bar..Its disturbing--E Renault Talk + 11:10, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
- BE, FYI, see my talk page -- Tinu Cherian - 11:18, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
- Hey Edge! I think that the message bars are not allowed if they are exact visual copies of the normal message bar....I have no idea where it says that, but I remember seeing something about it somewhere.... I, personally, don't think that it is that big of a deal though. :) Cheers! —Ed 17 for President Vote for Ed 16:52, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for stepping in Tinu, your point about lots of others using it, is indeed very much true. I copied from another user (whose name I forget), and have seen plenty others use it too. Whether it be cheeky links to signature pages or whatever. You say that it disrupts navigation, well I can hardly see what the problem is if all you have to do is click Back to resume normal browsing. Blooded Edge (T•C•A) 19:03, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
- Sorry, pal... Why don't you link the parenthesis so it's not exactly the same? ;D —Ed 17 for President Vote for Ed 19:05, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
- Erm, come again? I'm not familiar with the term 'parenthesis' =| Blooded Edge (T•C•A) 19:06, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
- Parenthesis = these things: ( ) :D —Ed 17 for President Vote for Ed 19:07, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
- Actually, there is already a slight difference. Notice how the second bracket is boldened in the real message alert, but not so on my fake. Is that not enough? :( Blooded Edge (T•C•A) 19:11, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
- Lol probably. :) —Ed 17 for President Vote for Ed 19:13, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
- I actually only noticed that when I was thinking of a way to change it per your request XD. Blooded Edge (T•C•A) 19:14, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

False New Message Bar
[edit]I have removed your false new message bar. This is because our guideline on simulated interface messages in userpages states that this is generally found to be disruptive, and cases of their use should be removed except when they are used in testing. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me, however please do not re-add the bar. Mine was removed also. ṜέđṃάяķvюĨїήīṣŢ Drop me a line 15:19, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
- I re-added it for the moment, as he can remove it himself, or change it to how he wants it. Cheers, —Ed 17 for President Vote for Ed 15:21, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
- See WP:SMI, Edge. :) —Ed 17 for President Vote for Ed 15:25, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
- Mine was deleted also, not by me. It is not up to him to remove it. Unless he his changing it to the message above, it should be removed. ṜέđṃάяķvюĨїήīṣŢ Drop me a line 18:05, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
- My goodness. Let him at least get on to the internet before you go and remove it... He'll remove it, but he's perfectly capable of doing that on his own, and a couple of hours won't hurt anyone. Cheers, —Ed 17 for President Vote for Ed 18:15, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
- I agree with Ed. He's usually on the wiki later, at about 2200 UTC or around there, so wait a while. —La Pianista (T•C•S) 19:12, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
- Sorry that I have been unable to contact you guys, reasons are given below. For the time being, I have removed the fake message bar as it has just caused too much hassle for my liking. Thanks to those who defended it anyway, it really means a lot to me :). Blooded Edge (T•C•A) 15:18, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

RfA
[edit]Hi Blooded Edge! Thank you very much for your questions and support in my RfA, which passed yesterday. I hope not to let you and the others down and use the tools for the benefit of the project. Cheers, Ynhockey (Talk) 21:00, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
- No problems, I hope you use your new powers responsibly :). Blooded Edge (T•C•A) 14:55, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
Hello?
[edit]Are you still around, Blooded Edge? You haven't edited since 24th October, so I'm beginning to worry if you've suddenly decided to leave (I have seen enough good editors leaving this month). Or are you on a break? Chamal talk 12:36, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
- I second what you've got in parenthesis there Chamal. LAAFan was a very good and person... =/ —Ed 17 for President Vote for Ed 13:40, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
- True... Not only LAAFan, I've seen two more editors (though not as notable as him) retiring from Wikipedia this month. If that's not enough, several experienced editors seem to be slowing down their contributions, almost semi-active :( Chamal talk 14:08, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
- This beats them all: Just saw that Possum (RyanLupin) is also gone. Gaaaarhhhhh! What is happening??? Chamal talk 15:05, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
- Zomg.... -_- Watch, SandyGeorgia will be next... —Ed 17 for President Vote for Ed 15:12, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
- First of all, I would like to apologise for my sudden vanishing. I was on a World War One battlefields tour through France and Belgium, visiting forts, memorials and the lot, so yeah.
- Secondly, I hate the timing of this, but I am placing myself on an indefinite wiki-break. I just have so much work to do at the moment, and so many things to deal with that Wikipedia has almost no time left for my participation in. Please note I am not doing this for attention or pity, but for my own good. There are thousands of other editors out there who can easily cover for me, though I will pop in and out over the coming 6 months or so. Thanks to everyone who has shown me so much support so far, people like Chamal, Pianista, Ed, Spittlespat, Tinu Cherian and Xenocidic have my ultimate respect. Sheesh, this sounds as if I'm saying adios for goot (which I'm not). Chances are I'll be back up to full steam when I get the exams done and dusted with :). Blooded Edge (T•C•A) 15:16, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
See you later then...
[edit]It's sad to hear that you are leaving, even temporarily. Wikipedia has 8,180,000+ registered users, but good ones are very few and you are among them. I really hope you will come back. Good luck with your exams :) BTW, you deserve the barnstar more than me.

This is awarded to Blooded Edge, for being a great editor and friend. You were (and will be, I hope) active in many areas of Wikipedia, and did well in all those areas. We joined Wikipedia around the same time, but the difference between our edits and how much we've learned in that time is obvious. You are the better man, without any doubt. Chamal talk 15:43, 31 October 2008 (UTC) |
- This is very touching Chamal, Wikipedia really is lucky to have users such as yourself aboard, the project really does have a future. No matter what you say, you deserved yours just as much man, thanks for your support :). Blooded Edge (T•C•A) 15:46, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

Article of the month - 2008 Belgian Grand Prix, current Good Article Candidate
![]() The 2008 Belgian Grand Prix (formally the LXIV ING Belgian Grand Prix) was a Formula One motor race held on September 7, 2008, at the Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps, Spa, Belgium. It was the 13th race of the 2008 Formula One season. The race, contested over 44 laps, was won by Felipe Massa for the Ferrari team, after the initial winner, McLaren driver Lewis Hamilton, was penalised for cutting a chicane and gaining an advantage over Ferrari's Kimi Räikkönen. Hamilton started from pole position alongside title rival Massa. Hamilton's McLaren team-mate Heikki Kovalainen started from third next to the 2007 winner Kimi Räikkönen. Following a spin by Hamilton on the second lap, Räikkönen led the race, until rain fell on lap 41 and Hamilton performed the penalised pass. Räikkönen crashed in the following lap as rain started raining heavily. Massa finished second on the road after Hamilton, followed by Nick Heidfeld of BMW Sauber. Hamilton received a drive-through penalty, which demoted him to third place and advanced Massa and Heidfeld to first and second positions. McLaren appealed the decision at the FIA International Court of Appeal. Their case, however, was judged inadmissible, with the Court ruling that drive-through penalties cannot be challenged. The penalty created a large amount of criticism from the global press, mainly from the United Kingdom and Italy, with several former drivers questioning the decision. Massa's retrospective win, with Hamilton demoted to third, narrowed the gap in the Championship from six points to just two.

GCSE's
[edit]Hi. How many GCSE's are you taking? I did 10 and a half. My advice: Work hard now, get 10 A*'s later! Ollie Fury Contribs 22:52, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
- Hmm, let me check my timetable. I guess I'll be taking 10, no half.
- Biology
- Chemistry
- Maths
- Geography
- Philosophy and Ethics
- French
- History
- Physics
- English (standard and literature)
- I'm trying my best to work as hard as possible, but please don't put additional pressure XD. I don't have the greatest of attention spans, so it is somewhat an uphill struggle :(. Blooded Edge Contact 22:56, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

Like if I logged on at 10am here, I would then remember that it's 5am where you are- and that you would probably not be on a computer! Ollie Fury Contribs 23:57, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
- I know, I was kidding. :) I normally get on at about 9am my time (2pm yours) Monday–Thursday if you have to catch me, but that is probably the earliest (unless, for some weird reason I am on at 3am one weekend) you'll find me on. Just an FYI! :) —Ed 17 (Talk / Contribs) 00:12, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

Hi there
[edit]How are you dude, my adoptee ? I guess you are doing well. -- Tinu Cherian - 09:48, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
- Not too badly, I don't have as much homework as I expected. Only major thing that is coming up in the near future is my school scholarship application in history tomorrow. 90 minutes test and an interview as well, so I've got my work cut-out XD. Blooded Edge Contact 18:48, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
Hey!
[edit]Hi, B.E.! How are ya? You've been missed. Sorry for the late message, I always assumed you were only preparing to retire permanently. This would have come sooner had I known you only semi-retired. :) —La Pianista (T•C•S) 00:29, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
- Permenant retiremant? Not a chance! I'm touched that people do miss me, but it can't really be helped :(. Anywho, I'm fine at the moment, how have you been doing? Blooded Edge Contact 21:49, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
- As well as can be expected with Ed as a comrade...any reader of my talk page can tell you how hard it is to be hit on every six hours. (jk)
- Marvelous. :) Just passed a major piano audition - and my family and I are prepping for Thanksgiving. I think we only celebrate it in the US and Canada, but I may be wrong. —La Pianista (T•C•S) 00:11, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
- Lol. Anyway, about your auditions, what did you apply for? A concert? Band? Or something else? As for thanksgiving, I think American immigrants in other countries may celebrate it as well :). Blooded Edge Contact 19:37, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
- Audition for a trophy. *embarrassed* It's actually a pretty ugly trophy, but you get to play at an honors recital with all the faculty and parents watching - which can either be a curse or blessing depending on how you look at it.
- Ah. I think so - we have an Indian family friend in Toronto, and he still celebrates American holidays (though albeit with the occasional, habitual "eh?" every once in a while). Happy holidays, and even if they are not the same holidays as we celebrate, may they be equally blessed. :) —La Pianista (T•C•S) 01:04, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

Article of the month - Damon Hill, kept at Featured Article status after review.
![]() Damon Graham Devereux Hill OBE (born 17 September 1960) is a retired British racing driver from England. In 1996 Hill won the Formula One World Championship; as the son of the late Graham Hill, he is the only son of a world champion to win the title. His father died in a plane crash when Hill was 15, leaving the family in reduced circumstances and Hill came to professional motorsports at the relatively late age of 23 by racing motorcycles. After some minor success, he moved on to single-seater racing cars, and progressed steadily up the ranks to the International Formula 3000 championship by 1989, where although often competitive he never won a race. Hill became a test driver for the Formula One title-winning Williams team in 1992. He was unexpectedly promoted to the Williams race team the following year after 1992 champion Nigel Mansell's departure and took the first of his 22 victories at the 1993 Hungarian Grand Prix. During the mid 1990s, Hill was Michael Schumacher's main rival for the Formula One Driver's Championship. The two clashed on and off the track; their collision at the 1994 Australian Grand Prix gave Schumacher his first title by a single point. Hill won the 1996 World Drivers' Championship, but was dropped by Williams for the following season. He went on to drive for the less competitive Arrows and Jordan teams, and in 1998 gave Jordan its first win. Hill retired from racing after the 1999 season. He has since launched several businesses as well as making appearances playing the guitar with celebrity bands. In 2006, he became president of the British Racing Drivers' Club, succeeding Jackie Stewart.

[edit]Hey, just dropping you a line about my reverting your edit to Asafa Powell citing Speedylook.com as a source. Speedylook.com is a really bad source, as all of its articles are pure machine translations of the French wikipedia. This means that it's subject to the inaccuracies of a wiki less maintained than this one, as well as additional errors from translation etc. Just wanted to let you know, so that you know I'm not just being a dicke!

Asafa Powell editing.
[edit]Hello,
I am curious why information on the death of the two Powell brothers is deemed to be irrelevant to Asafa Powell, especially when it is noted that both events occurred in the week of the Jamaica National trials, and of further note is that Asafa received the news of the death of one brother when actually on his way to the Stadium.
Surely such information on his siblings is relevant to the man himself?
Toyracerx (talk) 16:28, 1 February 2009 (UTC)
- Of course they are significant events in Asafa's life, but there is reason to my madness. The yearly sub-headings are there to summarise Asafa's performances on the TRACK during that time period. If his performance in a race was significantly hindered due to the news of family death(s), then by all means add the evidence and a few quotes. If I remember rightly, your version of the article at the time did not say that Asafa was under-performing as a result of the deaths. In that sense, it really doesn't fit in the context of that sub-section. However, feel free to start a new section labelled 'Personal life', and document the passing away of his brothers in that, along with other informational snippets about Asafa's life off the track. I hope you see what I mean. Blooded Edge Contact 17:09, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Article of the month - List of Formula One Grand Prix winners, new Featured List
![]() Formula One, abbreviated to F1, is the highest class of open-wheeled auto racing defined by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA), motorsport's world governing body. The "formula" in the name refers to a set of rules to which all participants and cars must conform. The F1 world championship season consists of a series of races, known as Grands Prix, held usually on purpose-built circuits, and in a few cases on closed city streets. The most famous Grand Prix is the Monaco Grand Prix in Monte Carlo. The results of each race are combined to determine two annual Championships, one for drivers and one for constructors. Michael Schumacher holds the record for the most Grand Prix victories, having won 91 times. Alain Prost, is second with 51 wins, and Ayrton Senna is third, with 41 wins. Michael Schumacher holds the distinction of having the longest time between his first win and his last. He won his first Grand Prix in 1992 at the Belgian Grand Prix, and his last in 2006 at the Chinese Grand Prix, a gap that spans 14 years, 1 month and 1 day. The youngest winner of a Grand Prix is Sebastian Vettel, who was 21 years, 73 days old when he won the 2008 Italian Grand Prix. Luigi Fagioli is the oldest winner of a Formula One Grand Prix; he was 53 years and 22 days old when he won the 1951 French Grand Prix.

Article of the month - 2008 Chinese Grand Prix, new Good Article
![]() The 2008 Chinese Grand Prix (formally the V Sinopec Chinese Grand Prix) was a Formula One motor race held on October 19, 2008 at the Shanghai International Circuit, Shanghai, China. It was the 17th and penultimate race of the 2008 Formula One season. The race, contested over 56 laps, was won by Lewis Hamilton for the McLaren team after starting from pole position. Ferrari driver Felipe Massa finished second, and Kimi Räikkönen was third in the other Ferrari. Hamilton, the eventual Drivers' Champion, led the Championship going into the race, and started from pole position alongside Räikkönen. Second in the Drivers' Championship, Massa began from third, next to Fernando Alonso of Renault. The first three drivers retained their positions into the first corner, but Alonso was passed by Hamilton's McLaren teammate Heikki Kovalainen. However, Alonso was able to regain the place midway through the first lap. Over the course of the race, Hamilton extended a considerable lead over the two Ferraris. Massa passed Räikkönen with seven laps remaining, to improve his chances of surpassing Hamilton's points tally at the final race in Brazil. The result extended Ferrari's lead over McLaren in the Constructors' Championship from seven to 11 points. Third-placed in the Drivers' Championship, Robert Kubica's sixth place at the Grand Prix eliminated his hopes of winning the Championship, and reduced his lead over fourth-placed Räikkönen to six points.

Re your comment on my comment on Tiffin School
[edit]OK, perhaps "stupid" was a little strong but "silly" certainly seems justified as a) it was a minor point that hardly warrants citation and b) the citation easily came from the school's own website.
But, that minor disagreement apart, you can see that I have made minor updates to many pages on topics that I know about, such as the place I live in and the bands I follow, and I will continue to do so. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Reesmf (talk • contribs) 14:37, 18 March 2009 (UTC)

[edit]Wow.... Your new name certainly stands out, edge. Or should that be "prost"? :P p.s. will the lionfish still be patrolling? Queenie 13:31, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
- Heh, yeah. All down to my unconditional love for F1. by the way, what do you mean by lionfish? =/ AyrtonProst Sign Here/Contact 13:34, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
*facepalm* sorry, I got you mixed up with SimonKSK, he has a lionfish on his editnotice [a bit like Pianista's Kittehmaster]. So /facepalms, and sorry again! oh, and no more tb's, please, I'm watching your page. :) Queenie 13:40, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
- Ohhhhh, lol, no worries. Anyway, how're you doing at the moment? AyrtonProst Sign Here/Contact 13:54, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

- @Chamal - ha ha, well to be fair, this is going to be the last one - EVER. I've only changed it to keep consistent with my usernames on various F1-related forums on the net, since my interest is growing once more after the dullness of winter testing. So, how are you [Chamal] doing as well? AyrtonProst Sign Here/Contact 14:50, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
- I'm doing ok... exams coming up in a month and I'm almost ready. I've also been watching your page for some time now, no need for the talkbacks :) Chamal talk 14:59, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
- oh, ok. So, you have exams too? Are they GCSEs, like what I have coming up? AyrtonProst Sign Here/Contact 15:05, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
- Advanced Levels. I don't know if they are the same though. Chamal talk 15:12, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
- Aaah, A-Levels, so I guess you're a year or two above me at this stage. And no, they are not the same as GCSEs, they're the next 'step' down the qualifications line. You taking AS or A2? AyrtonProst Sign Here/Contact 15:15, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
- Both at the same time. So, GCSEs are what we call O levels? Chamal talk 15:20, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
- Well, since GCSEs replaced them, I guess one could say that. If I may ask, what subjects are you going to sit? AyrtonProst Sign Here/Contact 15:24, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
- Physics, Mathematics, Computing. All nightmares :D What are you doing? Chamal talk 15:28, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
- Eugh - English, Maths, Chemistry, Biology, Physics, Geography, History, Philosophy & Ethics, French and English Literature. Man, the whole affair blows. AyrtonProst Sign Here/Contact 20:56, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

RE: Thanks alot
[edit]Hi there,
That certainly wasn't a problem! I just thought that I'd let you know - you might want to update the links in your navigation bar so that they point directly to your new username, instead of your old one. Also the "Contact" part of your signature is currently broken, it points to mainspace instead of this page (User talk:) space.
Hope this helps,
The Helpful One 21:41, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
- Yeah, I realised that the link was broken right after I posted, fixed it immediatly. I'll get down to re-formatting the nav-bar links tommorow, as I'm totally out for now. Once again, I say thanks in the light of your help. AyrtonProst Sign Here/Contact 21:44, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
Need some help
[edit]Hi
I wonder if you can help me. I made some values on Israeli Wiki and want to translate (that is not a problem) and transfer photos from that value to English Wiki
How should I do this?
Here are the links.
All photos and Docs are from my late father Estate
Thx

- Eh heh, I'm sorry but when it comes to coding and trans-wiki operations, I'm a complete amateur. So instead of depending on me (because I'm bound to screw up something in this), might I direct your attention to the Wikipedia:Help desk and/or Wikipedia:New contributors' help page? You'd be much safer asking for assitance in one of those two topics. Sorry I can't do much, but I hope you'll be able to get through all this soon with a real professional at your side.
