Cursive font
Hmmm, good question! I can't say I remember many... User:RyRy5's signature used to be cursive, but he's changed it now. I suggest going through List of typefaces, or the previews that are sometimes shown in Microsoft Word, and selecting one you like. I'll keep my eye out and let you know if I see any!

Adoption Question
What does FA and GA staus mean? I don't know how I don't know that, but I don't. Can you help?--LAAFan 04:29, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
What is the difference between a reference and external link? Please reply as soon as possible.--LAAFan 00:43, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
RE: Sig
Go ahead. Thank you for asking, though. I took it from User:Travellingcari. Just make sure that it isn't exactly alike. Cheers, Basketball110 My story/Tell me yours 01:07, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
Your Welcome
Regarding the welcome you gave here could you insure that the contributions made by the editor are not vandalism like here, thanks. BigDuncTalk 09:47, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
Hi there, I've been doing some work on this article, could you take another look at it and the AfD discussion? Thanks. Tim Vickers (talk) 17:44, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
Rollback
Well, assuming you've read Wikipedia:Rollback feature, if you are still interested, you can apply at WP:RFR. -MBK004 19:32, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
Re:Signature
I really don't know. I tried myself but it seems that it is in Times New Roman. Sorry. Also, about LAA. I would advise you to tell him not to edit his user page to often like I've been seeing him. It's good to have a nice user page but if you over due it, it could mean that you are not helping wikipedia articles. Try telling him nicely to edit more articles more often. An incident happened like what I am telling you to User:Nothing444 who is indefinently blocked right now and has been blocked I'd say 4ish times. His first was due to him editing way to much on his userpage. Please tell him. Thanks. -- RyRy5 (talk ♠ Review) 00:12, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
Help
Yep, it's Category:Wikipedians looking for help. The shortcut I use is CAT:HELP but you can get there by just putting CAT:HM as well. Best, PeterSymonds (talk) 23:55, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
Re:Editors
Well, I would suggest participating in WP:XFD and writing/improving articles that you are most interested in. Use your knowledge and it can get you somewhere. Hope this helps. Anything else? -- RyRy5 (talk ♠ Review) 00:09, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

The Original Barnstar | |
For helping the cause and whipping up a userbox AND and picture for The Wikipedia Welcome Squad, I award you with this Original Barnstar.--LAAFan 22:25, 19 May 2008 (UTC) |
P.S. The picture is great! The only thing I need to know is how do you align it to the right? Otherwise, thanks for the help! You will also be getting another barnstar soon enough for your welcoming —Preceding unsigned comment added by Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim Fan (talk • contribs) 22:31, 19 May 2008 (UTC) Yes, OK. You can check out the picture at the site. I was actually putting it on when I received your last message, so sorry for the delayed response.--LAAFan 22:48, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
- Nah. I'm waiting until the 23rd, so I can add a service badge userbox, as my first edit was on April 23rd. I will add it then. I shall also go on a welcoming spree, too. Your barnstar is coming, I'm just a little lazy........--LAAFan 00:03, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
Re:Autographs
Yes, feel totally free to copy them... ♠TomasBat 00:13, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
Deletion
Yeah, I read and responded. I find it odd that nobody knew about this project until it was nominated for deletion. --LAAFan 00:47, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
Reply
Always here to talk. :) And your idea could be good, but I we should let others decide in my opinion. Also, about my RFA you mentioned. I'm not really planning one until a good amount of time, which can take months.--RyRy5 (talk ♠ wikify) 01:02, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
On formatting
Regarding my comment to User:Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim Fan, dictating a nonstandard format to other users is well outside community norms. Additionally, I would hope that someone taking an adoptive position would seek to clarify such concerns directly rather than with oblique third-person comments. To be fair, though, "it's rather irritating" was phrased more strongly than necessary, though I don't consider it all that abrasive in an objective sense. I wanted to convey to LAAAF that I disapprove of an all-bold page without straying into "You need to change this now" territory. Do you have any further concerns with my comment? — Lomn 02:48, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

Thank you! Well I sometimes browse the links on user pages, and accidentally pressed the link to the page :) EliAS 11:05, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
Secret Page Barnstar
Thanks for placing it on my talk page Juthani1 tcs 23:41, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
It works now. I don't know what was going on yesterday. Thanks though Juthani1 tcs 23:44, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
Your Signature
I think I know why your sig shows in Times New Roman. It's probably because you use a different browser than others. For example, when I use Internet Explorer my old sig shows up in Edwardian Script, which looks cursive like. When I use Safari, the cursive sig looks normal instead. Understand?--RyRy5 (talk ♠ wikify) 23:53, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
- That's good. My laptop uses safari so the Edwardian Script/cursive won't show. My PC shows though. So, how's the adoption going? --RyRy5 (talk ♠ wikify) 23:58, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
- I have a suggestion. He was just granted rollback right? Well, I think you should let him experience with rollback for about a week or two. If he reverts without any problems, you can consider him installing Twinkle. This is just to be safe. When you think he's ready, please tell so I can check and see if he's ready without any problems. Remember, misuse of Twinkle can result in a block.--RyRy5 (talk ♠ wikify) 00:08, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
Hi, there
I left a msg at one of your secret pages. Hope you have noticed them -- TinuCherian (Wanna Talk?) - 07:17, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
