User talk:Dan the Man 1983

From Wikianswers

I am a Manager here. Feel free to message me for any help, and put new messages at the bottom.

Hi Dan. As you edited here last August, I wanted to let you know that Wikianswers has relaunched. Let me know what you think of the new site! Angela (talk) 12:24, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

Hi. It's good to see you back editing! If you need any help, you can find it here. Angela

Thanks for volunteering to be an admin. As well as the usual admin functions, there is also Special:RemoveAvatar - be careful with this one as there is no undelete. Here is a useful trick if you're answering questions about ages. If you use the template {{age|year of birth|month of birth|day of birth}}, then the age will always be correct, even after their next birthday! Angela

[edit] Unacceptable

Dan the Man 1983 (Talk | contribs) blocked 98.71.33.31 (Talk) with an expiry time of 1 week (anonymous users only, account creation disabled, cannot edit own talk page) (Moving a question to unacceptable question and then adding an unacceptable answer) -- but you leave the question and answer up? Why? --◄mendel► 12:36, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

Cause I ended up in conversation with someone on Live Messenger, so by that time I forgot about reverting the redirect. Thanks for pointing it out. Dan the Man 1983 13:24, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

Hehe. :) --◄mendel► 19:46, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

That's cool, just happy to help out. Dan the Man 1983 19:20, 1 August 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Opinion questions?

As I was looking through questions, I came across this: [1], which lead me to this forum post: [2]. Perhaps this should be continued or just closed to avoid confusion? Generally I've been redirecting opinion questions, as I always thought this site was for questions with true answers and not just different opinions. RobJ1981 21:51, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

I answered a question about the "best movie" by referring to the top 3 on the imdb ranking; maybe something similar can be done here? --◄mendel► 00:23, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

Good idea mendel. I think opinion questions should be answered with references. Dan the Man 1983 01:28, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Consider a Block

122.57.88.26

http://answers.wikia.com/index.php?title=How_big_is_the_area_of_land_in_australia_affected_by_salinity&action=history

This question comes up every few days. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Whiteguru (talk • contribs) .

Hmmmmm I won't put a block on yet since the question has been repeated by the IP twice. But if you spot this question being repeated again by the same IP, let me know. Dan the Man 1983 06:28, September 20, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] New groups on Wikianswers

Hi Dan the Man 1983. Administrators are now called Supervisors. Supervisors can rollback and delete but can not block users. There's also a new group called Managers that can block, protect, and make users into supervisors. Would you also like to be in this new managers group or would you prefer to be a supervisor only? Please let me know here Angela (talk) 08:40, October 21, 2009 (UTC)
