User talk:John Gerzetic

Hello John and welcome to AboutUs. Couple of comments about your edits, first great job!! :-) Second, for this page Trim.max-rx.com - we don't have automatic support for third level domains, so you will need to follow the steps on the AddSubdomain page. Third, I wanted to see if you wanted to help make MiracleBurn.com a better wiki page. Whew, that is about it! :-) Best, MarkDilley

Hey Mark, It's nice to meet you. thank you for your feed back. I will try to make the necessary changes for Trim.max-rx.com but I might mess up so please review my changes. I would be more than happy to help out with the miracleburn wiki page. I will add what I think is revelant and I guess you can review that also. Best, John

Hi John! Great work :-) Are you the author of SkinnyOnDiets.com? If you leave a response for me on User_talk:Brandon_CS_Sanders I'll see it more easily (adds the yellow box to the top of my window). Keep on rockin' and let me know how things are going :-) Warm Regards Brandon

Hi John, great work here! I wanted to know if you knew how to FixNames? Like NuTrophy.com to Nutrophy.com ?  :-) Best, Mark

hey Mark, i hope you had a nice weekend. I actually read something about that on the community section on the homepage but i'm not sure how to do that, if you can drop me a quick line on how to do it i can start making those adjustments when updating the reviews. thanks! =) John

i just realized the FIXNAME was a link, i'll check it out ASAP. thanks again Mark, have a great day =)

Cool John! I added a couple categories to your user page, fyi... also do you IRC? Many of us sit on the freenode room #AboutUs. Best, MarkDilley

Hey Mark, thank you for adding those to my userpage. I do not use IRC any longer, haven't used it since my college days.

I'll let you know if i get back on. thanks! John

Hi John, two things... could you please FixName of the pages that you add reveiws to. Also if you could work in a WikiLink to your site off the reveiws as well, maybe something like:

For the complete review please go to the SkinnyOnDiets.com review

I think it would look less "spammy" - Let me know what you think. Best, MarkDilley

hey Mark, yes i will try to fix the names on the websites but I'm not sure how each of them should look. most of them that i have been going back look right now. I would love to work in the wikilink but the review links i have been posting are specific for the website. So when a reader clicks through it doesn't just go to the main website but it directs them to the specific review. i hope this makes sense. thanks, John

Hi John, in my example above, I have the link directly to the review. Maybe it could be :

For the complete review please go to the review from SkinnyOnDiets.com

Do you see what I am trying to get at? Creating WikiLinks as well as external links.

Also, the last couple reveiws have been anonymous... is that on purpose or accidental? Best, MarkDilley

hey mark, i will also add the wikilink of skinnyondiets as well as the specific link. I saw that my past reviews went to anonymous and then was updated with the link to my user page, so i assumed this was going to happen again automatically. I will put my user page on it moving forward.

Cool John! I hope I am not coming across as "You must do this" - just trying to figure out what works :-) Thanks for the dialouge. Best, MarkDilley

also the internal WikiLink is best represented as SkinnyOnDiets.com - skinnyondiets.com. agree?

oh yeah, def agree. i will make the adjustments. thanks again Mark =)

hey mark, not at all, and i'm very sorry if you thought i took it that way. Your help has been and is greatly appreciated. Feed back is very important to me and I think you make very good points and I want to make these look as best as they can and i know you are trying to help. Please do not hesitate to send me your suggestions, they are always welcomed. Thank again, John =) (I actually wrote this before my last reply but it didn't post for some reason.)

FixName

Hi John,

re: Thermazan.com - you know you can just do the name fix yourself, right? Just click the "Move" button at the top of the page in question and put in the new name, with FixName as the edit summary. Thanks! TedErnst

great! thanks! TedErnst

Rollback

Hi John, I reverted the changes you made to the 50megs.com page as the information you posted there wasn't relevant to 50megs.com. Feel free to create a page specifically for your website, but the 50megs.com page is not the proper place to put that information. Scott

Hey John, I see that Scott didn't see exactly what you were doing. You could create a subdomain for NewYouDiet.50megs.com and add the review in there. Best, MarkDilley

Page Capitalization

Hi John, since you're editing so many different pages you seem to know about I was wondering if I could convince you to check the capitalization of all the different pages you edit, and change anything incorrect. You can do it pretty quickly by clicking the 'move' tab at the top of the page. It would really help a lot. Scott

Help!

Hey John, I would love it if you would come to the AdultContentPolicy page and participate in defining the direction for our wiki site, after all ItsYourWiki. If you would like to participate, go here and add your name like {{NotYet|need to look at this more}}. Please let me know if you have any questions... I am really interested in what you think about this, the issue and the way we are deciding it. :-) Best, MarkDilley

Help with Big Decision ... AboutUsLogo!

Hello John, there is a movement afoot to create a new version of the AboutUsLogo. I'd love it if you would come to AboutUsLogo and participate in creating this important decision about the look/feel for our site, after all ItsYourWiki! Warm Regards, Brandon CS Sanders

Storyteller's Bazaar

Hello John,

Have you paid a visit to TheStorytellersBazaar yet? If not, please do. It's jam packed with all sorts of writing activities. Read some of the contributions and hopefully they will inspire you to contribute too. The more you contribute the better the site will become. Come and have a look and enjoy. Tanwir Shah

WhoWeAre

Hi,

I would just like to tell you about the WhoWeAre consensus poll. This is a unique opportunity for all community members to discuss and decide what AboutUs is and more importantly what role we, the community, plays.

The discussion is still in its initial stages and there are a handful of people involved in this discussion. But it's not enough. Every one of us has a stake in this process. We all need to air our views. Our opinions will make a difference. We cannot and must not let a handful of people define us. We must speak out and contribute because we are being defined and I for one would like to have a say in how I am being defined.

Please contribute to this really important project. Without you it cannot successfully create a good definition of who we are. Tanwir Shah

AnnualCommunityReview

Hi John, would like to invite you to participate in some conference calls we are having. I think it would be great if you would like to participate, especially in relations about how AboutUs is interacting with your own work. Best, MarkDilley

NewSkin Beta Preview

Hello John!

We've noticed your contributions and are glad to be on the AboutUs team with you! As an ActiveMember your energy and ideas determine our future direction. One way that ActiveMembers stay "in the loop" is to participate in the beta previews of large new changes to the site before they are generally released.

Today we're starting a limited beta preview of an earthy NewSkin intended to reflect the alive and growing AboutUs community. The NewSkin is designed to feel wholesome and connected with the real world. This choice was made to reassure the many folks who feel that the internet is a "scary place" where mean people hide behind fake identities and shout insults at each other. We hope that the NewSkin evokes our values in a way that helps visitors and members alike feel grounded in true community.

We'd love your help putting the NewSkin through its paces! To give it a whirl you'll need to be logged in. Once you are logged in, go to "my preferences" | "skin" and select "design". Don't forget to then click the "save" button! You can always go back to the current skin by selecting "aboutus" via the same steps.

Your feedback on the new look for aboutus will help ensure that it has a maximally positive impact when we roll it out. Thanks for being a valuable member of the community, we look forward to your feedback on the NewSkin page!

Warm Regards,
the DevelopmentTeam
