Unified Login

Helloe EVula! Sorry for disturbing you...I was seeing you're an outstanding colaborator to the wiki project, I don't want to bother you with that but....who am I going to ask? I was not sucessful in merging my wiki account following the Help:Unified login available...I was wondering wether someone has an step by step screenshot on what exactly I need to do since once I logged into the Special:MergeAccount nothing happen than saying my password is incorrect (which was not true). Could you help me or direct who could? Thank u in advance! --Alvarossjunior (talk) 01:20, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

I don't know about using that system specifically, but personally, all I did to unify my login was... once I was logged into Misplaced Pages, I just went to each of the sister projects and logged in like normal, the unification was all done automatically. I don't remember doing anything special. Have you checked to make sure that your username isn't already used by someone else on the other project? - Adolphus79 (talk) 02:50, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

I'm probably a bad person to ask for this, actually; by the time SUL finally rolled around, I already had 300+ Wikimedia accounts, so it was quite a while before I came across a Wikimedia site where I didn't already have an account.

If I had to guess, I'd say that maybe commons:User:Alvarossjunior is causing problems, since that's the only other account when looking at the SUL utility. I'm just an admin on Commons, though, and am not sure what their renaming policies are; I'd recommend contacting Lar, a local bureaucrat (and all-around cool guy).

Meetup?

EVula - you've previously expressed interest in a Chicago wiki-meet. If you're interested in coming to another one, take a look at Misplaced Pages:Meetup/Chicago 3 and let us know your thoughts. best — Dan | talk 18:43, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads up. EVula // talk // ☯ // 19:15, 2 August 2008 (UTC)

Huh.

I've known you this whole time and never put two and two together that you're from evula.com (I've been an EV fan since waaay back in the original days). ⇒SWATJester 13:05, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

Good to see another one, I'm sure there's more EV fans on here than we realise. :) ~ mazca 16:45, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

Nine times out of ten, if you see an "evula" somewhere, it's me. It's my username damn near everywhere... EVula // talk // ☯ // 22:55, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

E-mail

I've sent you another note regarding the ongoing issues. As you haven't replied to the other ones this is just a note in case they're being stopped by your SPAM filter. Pedro :  Chat  23:01, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

Er, odd, the last email I see as coming from you was back in May, and my spam filters aren't set to delete stuff without my approval... I've even added you to my address book just to make sure that Mail knows you're not some random spammer. Try sending it through Misplaced Pages, I guess? :\ EVula // talk // ☯ // 00:31, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

Mailed via WP, but I think the issue may be fixing itself anyway. Cheers! Pedro :  Chat  12:58, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

Got the email and responded to it. Didn't get this "you have messages" notice until I came on to drop you a line saying I'd responded. :) EVula // talk // ☯ // 13:12, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

Restoration of Image:NBS_120_Set.jpg

Thanks. Can you check out the information I provided and provide suggestions on presentation? Thanks. John (talk) 04:57, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

I think the way you did it is fine. Might want to track down OrphanBot's edit to History of radio and restore the image there, though. EVula // talk // ☯ // 05:10, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

Done. Thanks. John (talk) 01:39, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

Awesome. Pleasure doing business with you. ;) EVula // talk // ☯ // 02:49, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

Yo

Sock account of an established editor and admin. I could tell you who, but that would take all the fun out of it... plus it's sort of obvious. >_> Roger Took is notable. Not only for his criminal activity, but also for his book, which was award winning and acclaimed, but also because of his company. Furthermore, it was all sourced to reliable sources, and there was a plan to expand the rest of the article, that being about his career. Unfortunately, I only had the hours I spent writing what I did this morning/afternoon before I had to go to work. As I don't want to wheel war, I would appreciate it if you would drop a line back on my talk page... oops. Spilled the beans. Magdalena. (talk) 03:02, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

Responded on... jeez, someone's talk page. Too many friggin' names... EVula // talk // ☯ // 05:04, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

I took the liberty of restoring the page to User:Magdalena./Roger_Took. I also left a note to that effect on someone's talk page. ;) -- Flyguy649 05:22, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

Well, I trust she-of-too-many-bloody-names, so I've unprotected and restored Roger Took (and its talk page), and deleted the userfied version (since it wasn't necessary). EVula // talk // ☯ // 05:49, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

Sounds good! -- Flyguy649 05:51, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

Thanks, guys. And dude.. Okay, so... okay. I just have the two names, k? It's my sock. Don't even consider it as being me. Cause that's the whole point. Don't want the orange banner. I just don't want my shit deleted because I'm a newb. :D Jennavecia 06:26, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

Pfft, it's far more fun to give you shit. :P EVula // talk // ☯ // 06:46, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

SUL account Times

Hello EVula, I try to switch my current user name into User:Times to complete my global SUL account. I placed a request here but nobody has answered, yet. Are there any restrictions or problems? Thank you for answering. --Times.uk (talk) 19:38, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Can't vouch for the other admins, but I just haven't had the time to look into it properly (I handled several other renames earlier today, but that's because I had a spare moment at work). I'll try to get to it tonight if someone doesn't beat me to it, but as per the wikibreak notice above, my spare time is sadly short right now... EVula // talk // ☯ // 19:40, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

It doesn't matter. Thanks for the trouble! --Times.uk (talk) 19:45, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

WP:BREAK notice

Thanks for taking care of business. hmwithτ 21:06, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Not a problem. I'll keep watching it and jump on any issues that arise. EVula // talk // ☯ // 04:12, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

Usurpation request

Greetings. Here you marked by usurpation request as having been withdrawn. I think if you re-read what I wrote it's clear that I did not withdraw the request. How may I proceed? Thanks. - House of Scandal (talk) 17:49, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

Er, so, just to clarify, you do still want the username Boston here on en.wp, and don't care about having SUL fully active on those projects, correct?

I did just re-read your statement and yeah, there are a couple of ways to read it: the right way, and the wrong way. I think we know which one I chose. ;) EVula // talk // ☯ // 18:06, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

My RfA

EVula, thanks very much for closing out my RfA, and for the helpful links on my talk page. I might get back to at some point regarding some advice about Category:Misplaced Pages administrators open to recall. Best, Paul Erik 19:14, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

An excellent idea; that's a rather contentious, but still important, category. Definitely not something you want to do haphazardly. :) EVula // talk // ☯ // 20:57, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

Thoughts

The first sentence is so true. Jonathan How's the weather? - talk about me behind my back 01:36, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

Amen to that... EVula // talk // ☯ // 03:23, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

Changing username

Could you look over my request at WP:CUN? Cheers, --Meldshal42? 20:39, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

Already taken care of since you asked me about it. EVula // talk // ☯ // 05:29, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

Interesting

Interesting conversation you had on IRC last night eh? Don't worry, I have all the logs. Some of the things that came from you regarding me are far from what I would expect from a bureaucrat. Ryan Postlethwaite 21:47, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
