Could you help with my userpage? When I moved it to being a design proposal, it just became some sort of redirect. How do I uncouple them into separate pages? Heath 00:48, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

I made a User:Vincecate/big wave videos but then decided it was better as a regular page and not just a user page. But now I don't know how to remove this page. Can I do it or do you need to? Vincecate 16:02, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

Hi Vince, I guess you need to be a sysop for that. I've removed the page. Joep 18:44, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

Is there some automatic way to get a page with a link to each user page? So like one for User:joep and one for User:Vincecate, etc? If not I think we should make one manually. Then the main page should link to this page. Vincecate 16:55, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

Hi Vince, is this what you mean? Joep 15:30, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
Yes, that is what I wanted. I have put a link to that on the main page. Thanks! Vincecate 23:30, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
Thanks, and you're welcome! Joep 18:49, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

Thanks

Joep,

Thanks! I hope to make a number of further edits too. --Daniel 23:12, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

Spam to wiki

There are many more anonymous spam edits than good anonymous edits. Most real contributions are by people who login. Sometimes I forget to login and so my IP shows up. I think we would be much better off to not allow anonymous edits. Can we do that? Or can I at least set all the User:Vincecate pages to not allow anonymous edits? If I set my pages as "protected" could people still post to the talk pages? Vincecate 19:21, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

Hi Vince, I hope it works, but anonymous edits should be disallowed now. Let's see what happens. Joep 19:39, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
Ya! I logged out and the edit option went away. So it is changed. I bet it really cuts down on the spam. Thanks! Vincecate 22:32, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
It has vanished completely :) Joep 23:13, 17 February 2009 (UTC)
The spammers are back and outnumber the good edits by a wide margin. Vincecate 07:46, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
