So you actually want to do the adoption thing? I can get it set up really quick, just give me a yes or a no if your in.Mirror Freak 19:56, 12 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Might as well try it InfernusIsHiding 19:58, 12 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I've made the page here. Mirror Freak 20:03, 12 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Are you going to answer the questions?Mirror Freak 20:18, 12 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, just finishing something really quick. InfernusIsHiding 20:26, 12 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You have been trouted minnowed for: allowing editing of your userpage below a certain point. I saw that and decided to add a {{troutme}} template but then decided to have mercy and just minnow you. ;) Welcome to Wikipedia! Hope you stay! Cheers, Thanks, L235-Talk Ping when replying 01:23, 13 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@Lixxx235:I accept this "invintation" if that's what you call it. InfernusIsHiding 20:04, 15 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I find this... hilarious, and I have to say, I'd rather like seeing a list of trouts or minnows from people. InfernusIsHiding 18:27, 15 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for answering the questions. (Believe me, It will help).

So now lets move onto the next task which is basic editing. I know that you probably know most of the lesson, but you should do it anyway so you can refresh some of the info. Happy editing!Mirror Freak 12:17, 15 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

What's this? InfernusIsHiding 18:38, 15 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You don't know what a barnstar is? Mirror Freak 18:39, 15 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Seen them, not really heard of them. InfernusIsHiding 18:40, 15 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Well, whenever you do something really well, or your just being a awesome dude, sometimes people will give you a barnstar. I gave you this one because you signed my guestbook. You can give others barnstars by clicking the pink heart next to the edit tab. I have new lesson for you btw. After this one, what do you want the next lesson to be?Mirror Freak 18:42, 15 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe, working with things you might find while looking over pages? InfernusIsHiding 18:47, 15 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

What do you mean? Do you mean vandalism?Mirror Freak 18:50, 15 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I have no idea, just anything really; vandalism, grammar, helpful fixes. InfernusIsHiding 18:52, 15 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Or maybe, just how to do things like adding pages, those drop down boxes in the assignment page, and more organization things in this page.

Okay I'll type up the lesson real quick.Mirror Freak 18:56, 15 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The lesson is readyMirror Freak 19:04, 15 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! Sorry if I accidentally implied I was offering something, it was just a freindly joke.

• I am willing, though, to be a "mentor" or something. MirrorFreak will still be your "adopter", I'll just be another resource you can call on.
• Pings only work if the signature is added in the same sentence that the ping was added in. Just something to keep in mind.

Happy editing! Cheers! Cheers, Thanks, L235-Talk Ping when replying 22:05, 15 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Infernus, I have the vandalism lesson ready to go. I also noticed that your signature doesn't have a link to your talk page (Signatures are required to). Do you not know how to format that?Mirror Freak 15:37, 16 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Not really.

Also, what are we doing next? I think i fixed the talk thing. InfernusIsHiding-Talk 18:00, 16 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

We're going to do editing. Whenever you have any questions, ask them hereMirror Freak 18:01, 16 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Mirror Freak 17:24, 16 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You are invited to join the discussion at User:MirrorFreak/Infernus 780 adoption. Bro, you got 3/6 or 1/2 of the answers correct. Go back over them. Thanks. Mirror Freak 17:38, 16 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Infernus, I'm taking a wikibreak for a week so I can do better in school and destroy math. I'll be back on September 25th. While I'm gone, I want you to ask Lixxx for help on copyediting and whatever you need. I'm sure he/she (sorry not sure by the user name) wont mind. I thought it'd be a good idea to let you know whenever I take a break. See you in a week!Mirror Freak 19:23, 18 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Did you like my new userbox? (If you're still here) InfernusIsHiding-Talk 19:34, 18 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The edit summary appears in:

• User contributions

• Related changes
• New pages list and
• Article editing history

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. Thanks! Mirror Freak 17:38, 19 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, I saw your edit here. Please don't feed the trolls by saying things like that. It lets the trolls know that they are getting your attention. It can also be a deciding factor in whether you are able to get rollback rights or reviewer rights.Mirror Freak 14:47, 25 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Dangit, I forgot about that thing. InfernusIsHiding-Talk 15:27, 25 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

No worries. It happens. I just wanted to let you know now so that you don't make the same mistakes I did.Mirror Freak 15:29, 25 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You said there's not much to do anymore, so why not try the teahouse adventure? You could also make your own guestbook.Mirror Freak My Guestbook 20:17, 25 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Well you could put a report up on the user reports if you want. Wgolf (talk) 18:40, 2 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

SharkTecDefence (talk) 19:20, 3 October 2014 (UTC)( Please can you be more specific and highlight areas of promotion on the SharkTec wiki page. Also, I have contested against deletion, there is a fine line for promotion and information about the company and what it does. Please look and the SharkTec Talk contested page. I also ask to remove the speedy delation until there is more information given about why it should be deleted.) SharkTecDefence (talk) 19:20, 3 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page stalker) @SharkTecDefence: Businesses have to meet the notability requirements for organizations and companies to be considered worthy of inclusion; Wikipedia is not a business directory. You should not be writing about it because you represent the company, and this is a conflict of interest. Your account name violates Wikipedia's username policy, which forbids account names that are names of businesses. Finally, you also copied text directly from your website, which is a copyright violation. --Drm310 (talk) 19:54, 3 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Once a page like Opendorse has been tagged for speedy deletion, administrators will make the decision as to whether it will be deleted or not. Please don't remove the speedy deletion tags before then. If you can make a case for why it shouldn't be deleted, do so on the talk page. Thanks. --Drm310 (talk) 20:29, 3 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I'm new to this thing. InfernusIsHiding-Talk 15:36, 6 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page stalker) I'm up for adopting again if you want.Mirror Freak My Guestbook 15:38, 6 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, lets do it. This time though, lets try to do more practice before you send me on an article though :P InfernusIsHiding-Talk 15:58, 6 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page stalker) @MirrorFreak: Okay, so does User Talk:Amanda Smalls/Infernus 780 adoption#Moving_On_Suggestion apply or not? Mirror Freak, if you want to continue adopting Infernus 780, I'm fine. Infernus 780, I have your adoption page ready, but if you want Mirror Freak to be your adopter, I'm perfectly fine. (And this time, sign your post. If you don't sign, I don't receive notifications) Cheers,  ΤheQ Editor  16:18, 19 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@TheQ Editor: Well since I'm going through adoption now with Yunshui, Infernus is all yours.Amanda Smalls 12:44, 20 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I've created it here. You don't need to do it if you don't have time. Life is always more important than Wikipedia. Cheers,  ΤheQ Editor  23:53, 30 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Whack! You've been whacked with a wet trout. Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know that you did something silly.

You have been trouted for: Not trouting yourself sooner.

A couple things about record-keeping; complete instructions are here, with a link to our FAQ page:

• S&P Dow Jones Indices is your first article; the first line shouldn't be blank.
• To avoid "tying up" articles (and ensure a good job on each one), only use the {{Working}} tag on one article at a time.

Thanks for your help and all the best, Miniapolis 18:04, 7 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Heh, sorry about that. Been a bit busy reading another article that has a ridiculous length. I felt like you all were doing well with the short ones, so I grabbed some long ones. The thing is though, I marked a few "working" because I read too fast for most people and end up running out of things to do. InfernusIsHiding-Talk 18:22, 7 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You're still "booking" articles, and have three articles marked {{Working}} in your drive section. Please see Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Backlog elimination drives/FAQ#General, question two, and work on one article at a time. Miniapolis 23:59, 14 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Jamesjpk. I wanted to let you know that I removed the "seeking adoption" userbox from your user page, because you haven't been active for at least a month. When you come back to Wikipedia, feel free to add the userbox back with the code {{Adopt me}}. If you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks!
