edit Welcome
Hello OBED ! Welcome to AboutUs.
Feel free to continue exploring the wonderful world of wiki here at AboutUs.org where everyone may collaborate to build the commons and community through their edits and participation. I went ahead and re-directed User:Obed Suhail to Obed Suhail. Welcome to the AboutUs community - it's great to have you!
Have a most wonderful day!
KristinaWeis | **talk**
Thanks!
Welcome to AboutUs Obed, I look forward to learning wiki with you :-) Best, MarkDilley
Hi!
You're doing a wonderful job welcoming new users! Thankk you. Remember to put this: [[ around the name of the website that way it makes a wiki link. Also, I created a page AboutUsStaffLahore and one for Portland too, there is a link on the top of the page. best, Kasey
edit Template:LASIK:GoBack
Nathan and I just created a new template to put a link on each doctor's page, back to the LASIK page for their city. Here's an example: Jacqueline D. Griffiths, M.D. I would recommend putting this on each doctor's page. Also, I used Template:TOCright. Do you like the way that looks, with the Table on Contents on the right? If so, feel free to change the other pages, or just use that for the new pages you're creating. peace, TedErnst 11:42, 15 May 2007 (PDT)
edit Portal Talk:LASIK
I made a new page for anyone working on the LASIK portal to be able to talk about new ideas and on-going work. It would be great if you could write there about the comments already there, and also about your ongoing LASIK portal work. TedErnst
edit TOCright
I really like how TOCright works with the photos on the doctor's pages. Would it be worth putting TOCright into the GoBack template so it's automated and doesn't have to be individually added to each doctor? TedErnst
- Glad you like it! TedErnst
edit changing page names
Hi Obed, do you know about the move feature that's used to rename pages? When you copy wikitext from one page and put it in another (new) page, you lose the edit history. You know about "history", right? Anyway, you lose the history when you do a cut and paste. The "move" feature, on the other hand takes the history with it. Does this make sense? I'd recommend "move" when pages need to change to show the doctor's whole name, or any other reason. peace, TedErnst
edit LASIKPlus.com
Yes, having a page for each of their offices makes sense. I would leave the main page at LASIKPlus.com, and have the individual city pages links from there, with those city pages having links to the doctors in that city, etc. Is this what you were thinking? Great! TedErnst
edit skype call
Obed, I would like to have a skype call with you for 15 minutes Friday morning at 9am your time, okay? I'm scheduling the others for previous & subsequent days. If this doesn't work, we can reschedule. Thanks! TedErnst
edit thanks for catching my errors in the template
! :-) TedErnst
edit ConsensusPolling.org
Hi Obed, I was mostly asking the question. I think that there is a recursive nature to wiki that I am trying to talk about. ConsensusPolling.org is the canonical place for the idea. It seems that the portal should be on that page... MarkDilley
- Obed, this was just pondering, not a directive :-) I am available for a Skype call most anytime. I am up at the beginning of your day usually. Let me know when. Best, MarkDilley
Hey Obed Happy Birthday! ...hope you had a wonderful day. Kasey 12:08, 18 June 2007 (PDT)
edit great work on consensus polling roles!
Fantastic! Way to go! Love them. :-) Did you see the tour I started at WikiAnatomy. Feel free to scrap it and start over if you like, of add to it or whatever. peace, TedErnst
edit Storyteller's Bazaar
Hello Obed,
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
edit LASIK
Obed-
- Left a brief message for you/Tanwir/Ted on the Projects:Lasik:FirstDoneCity ConsensusPoll page.
edit email from provider
I would recommend either making a decision yourself about the way to go, and then doing that, with a discussion afterwards on the project page or the portal talk page, so others can also weigh in, or, if you feel you cannot make a decision first, start the discussion first and see what everyone has to say. I'd really like us to get to teh point where we're not only all feeling like we can make decisions, but that we can work together on reviewing and/or making decisions as well. Let me know how this strikes you? TedErnst

edit Projects:Lasik
Hey Obed,
Did you see Chris's edit on Dallas? All that's left is images into galleries. I did a bunch of them today. Possible for you and Asad to fix up the rest? peace, TedErnst
edit WelcomingPeople
Ah, it's great to see you WelcomingPeople. I think it's something really vital to building community and shaping new users into better editors, but that's just me. Also, it's really great to have you welcoming because of the time difference and the fact that no one can be welcoming while they sleep ;)
May I suggest you point people towards the WikiAnatomy tours? We're just finishing up this project here in Portland and I think it can be very useful (have you seen/taken these tours yet?). If you have any thoughts on welcoming feel free to add it to the top of the page, WelcomingPeople or just see how other people are welcoming. Best wishes!
KristinaWeis | **talk** 00:37, 12 July 2007 (PDT)
edit Projects:AboutUsLogo
Hey Obed, I told you I'd invite some people for this. I put two links to people I've invited on the project page itself. I spent the bulk of today working on the OurWork page and the WikiAnatomy page. Tomorrow I plan the pairing on the CP tour with someone, not sure who yet. Let me know if you're able to do some more inviting to the logo poll. TedErnst
edit Earle Martin
Hi Obed, I was really excited this morning to see your note to Earl about the UWEB and then his comments to a couple of the NotYet's. Awesome! Now you and I need to talk about how to mentor those that are learning to facilitate. I have some thoughts about the comments/questions Earl left and would love to talk over with you how we might now share those thoughts with Earl. peace, TedErnst
edit Logo
Thanks for asking me to participate with the logo. However, I am not sure which box I am sapposed to add my name to and I don't know what a boilerplate is. Help?! --Evenplayn 11:10, 13 July 2007 (PDT)
- Obed, I talked with several people in the Portland office about your idea of making people inactive. They all pretty much liked the idea. We need to make it more clear what the rules are in advance, next time. For now, check out AboutUsLogo to see what I did. TedErnst
edit LASIK Dallas
I updated the Projects:LASIK page today to reflect that it is now in the hands of the AboutUs business office. Content/community won't work on it again (another city, I presume) until it gets prioritized in the planning game, and that doesn't seem to make sense until the calls for Dallas are on their way to completion. Let me know if I've got any of this wrong, from your point of view. peace, TedErnst
edit Controlling the edit on my page
Hello,
You have a great profile. Thanks for your refreshing belief in diversity!
I got an email from you after I updated my page. The question is have is this. Can anyone edit my page, or can I keep others from editing it? I am not sure how the edit works, and I don't want anyone editing my page. Thanks for your time.

edit talking re: facilitation and the tour
Hi Obed,
This week is pretty tough for me to skype. Could we try talk page notes in the meantime, and hopefully I can get on at a time when we can skype?
I like your edits on the tour. It changed a lot, as you saw, after my talk wtih Julia. Do you have any questions / problems with the changes? We now need to do quite a bit of further cleanup, including making sure introductino and conclusion really work.
As for facilitation, did you see Earle Martin took you up on your inviation to facilitate? His questions seemed very "challenging" rather than supportive, and I wonder how we can help him become a bit softer, so we can move towards consensus, rather than push people into solidifying their positions? Thoughts? TedErnst
edit A chat about work
Hello Obed, I am wanting to talk to folks about coordinating work on a weekly basis, to try and make things go smoother. When could we talk? Best, MarkDilley

hey obed, vinh made us a cool new template - check it out: ConsensusPolling:The Document is Alive TedErnst
edit AboutUsLogo Sander Snel
Hi Obed, I haven't heard back from any of the folks I contacted with respect to the AboutUsLogo ... I think it's time to move them to an "unreachable" status.
Update: It looks like you've already done a great job of moving folks to the "inactive" status. Also, I definitely don't think that Sander belongs in that category. See for example this logo he created
. Perhaps it makes sense to begin to engage him in the WhoWeAre process about why this particular logo is meaningful to him?
edit LASIK next cities
Obed,
I wanted to finally get in touch with you and Tanwir directly since our LASIK efforts are truly coming together in this next phase. The work both of you have done on the project has been so great and helpful to AboutUs and , furthermore, to me personally as I'm making the sales effort. So thank you so much for the good work (and remind Tanwir I said this too, for I think I forgot to thank him directly on his talk page!)!
As far as next steps for LASIK, I'd like to have a larger list of potential calls to come from so I can operate more efficiently. Often times it takes several calls and a couple of conversations with different people to even get to the sales pitch, so I'd like to be able to push on many fronts at once. We'll be bringing this up for official prioritization in our content and community meeting next week, so I'd like to get a list of 5 cities or so together by then. I'm thinking that Portland and Manhattan should be on this list, but I'm open to whatever suggestions you all have.
So, I'll create a space on the project page where this list can exist. Let's all throw our two cents in on where to put our work next.
Looking forward to our continued correspondence and your response, ChrisBabson

edit re: planning game
Obed, I think you should include whatever you feel the priorities are. We still have about a day of work to do before the planning game happens, so my recommendation is to knuckle down to see how much we can get done, and then prioritize remaining work accordingly. TedErnst
Hi Obed,
Thanks for your welcome message and hints in it.
I'm learning about how to edit the pqb.fr page I just created.

I've been patrolling RC tonight and coming across several of your welcome messages. I think I might just borrow the great way you word "wondering if you might be interested in contributing to the ____ page on AboutUs." That's great, and it comes up so much that people work on their PersonalPage and don't know to do so to their DomainPage. Yay! Have a great day, and goodnight. KristinaWeis

edit Greatings
Hi Obed, thank you for the welcome. I was very surprised to find my web page here. But I am grateful that AboutUs exists. So new horizons open for me. I hope I can find the time to learn more about AboutUS. You see, I needed three days to answer you. I have just moved to Jamaica to build a new existence with sportfishing for me and my wife. So I'm very busy the whole day, the whole week, the whole month.....
One question - what does the red flag mean in the upper right corner?

edit talk?
Hey Obed,
Hope the visit with Brandon and Ray is going well. I haven't yet caught up on a week away from the wiki so don't know where we are with WhoWeAre and would love to catch up with you by skype this week. When would work for you?
peace, TedErnst
edit Thanks
Thanks for the comment. Kaufmanweb.com is my friend's company and I figured I'd help him out by putting it on Aboutus.org.
I do have a quick question, though. How do I get a thumbnail of the website to appear on the aboutus.org page? I think I figured out that some external website has to do it, whois.com. Is this right? Otherwise, is there an internal way to upload an image on this website and post it?
Thanks, Shotgun method.

- WhoWeAre stage 1 consensus poll went live just a few minutes ago.
- If you have little time (one minute?), I invite you to take a look at your status page in the WhoWeAre stage 1 consensus poll and set an appropriate status message.
- If you have more time, I invite you to look more closely at WhoWeAre and then at Projects:WhoWeAre to see what needs to be done, or add to the list of what needs to be done.
- Thanks much! TedErnst

edit trouble in the user namespace :-)
Hi Obed, This moves the page, but not the account. Because there is not an account, there are no user contributions or contact by email links. Does that make sense? Either have her re-sign in or move the page back, at least the talk page? Best, MarkDilley

Hi Obed. I'll only be in for a short time tomorrow, from about 11-1, as I've got some important errands to run. Hope that suits you for the chat you wanted with the three of us? FatimaRaja 02:44, 20 August 2007 (PDT)
edit Under 3000
Hi Obed, I saw your work on creating a strategy for keeping RC under 3000, such an important task. Do you think maybe an alert of some sort (staff email?) when RC hits a certain number 2700 or something would be helpful or maybe just lost in the email sea? Just a thought...Kasey 14:36, 24 August 2007 (PDT)

Hello Obed,
I went to http://www.aboutus.org/AboutUsStaff today and this page is redirected to a category page which contains only one staff member. I am concerned about this. If you look to the left & click on the link that says "what links here" you will notice that many many pages link to this page. AboutUsStaff needs to be a good page that will provide meaningful information about the company and the people who make it work so well. What were you thinking about this page & what it should be?

edit nitpicky wording comment
Hi Obed, this is personal preference and a bit ranty, so take it for what it's worth. I strongly prefer to say "100% agreement", rather that "100% consensus". This is because for many people consensus is by definition 100%. So if we were at 95% yes, we confuse people by saying 95% consensus. 95% agreement is accurate however. 100% consensus seems redundant and strange, which 100% agreement seems natural to me. Hope you're having a great day! TedErnst | talk 08:27, 3 October 2007 (PDT)
edit Unsolved question
Hi Obed, by googling my own website I found an entry on myself here and so started to explore this interesting site by modifying my own entry. One thing that I just couldn't find in the Help section was how to edit that very first word underneath the "edit" arrow. I don't want to sound pedantic, But "Annegret" is actually my first name, and I hate to see it spelled with a capital E smack in the middle. I there any way I can change this? There must be...only I can't find it...thanks a lot in advance, Annegret with two lower-case E's :-)

edit More Questions
How long have you been here?
Do you edit any other wikis?
Is this site indexed by Google? I should probably pick up on the clue from the message two above this, but I cannot recall seeing any search results leading me here, which is odd considering your size. I guess it could be me not straying far from the first page of results, or maybe I have my search techniques down right (I don't tickle or nothin' - Jules, Pulp Fiction).
Woof. BuddyJan07 13:38, 9 October 2007 (PDT)
edit Category:Welcome to AboutUs!
Kasey came up with a great idea that I'm in love with for tracking new people that are welcomed as opposed to the old Welcoming People Log page. Essentially by month every new user welcome gets a category like Category:2007-10 Welcome to AboutUs! so they can easily be tracked and sorted by year/month on Category:Welcome to AboutUs!. So you can see that I just added this to my deal-y at User:KristinaWeis/Welcome3 and if you could do the same to whatever you use and hopefully remember to change it on the first of the month. And if you would like to add a category like this to your talk page with the month you joined/were welcomed, it can double as a badge of honor of when everyone joined.

edit whoweare inactives
Obed,
Here's my thinking on how we proceed with whoweare. Kasey and I send the staff email today. You, Asad, Kasey and I do tutorials with the staff Weds & Thurs to get them signed up. We answer questions, etc. Friday we do talk page messages for everyone on the "haven't seen it yet" list to invite them to take a look. We include the inactive notice with those messages (including Umair and Blake who are no longer with the staff). We wait, and listen. While we're doing that, we need to add the stage 3 consensus poll thresholds and such.
What do you think?

Hi Obed When I checked the link and exited from it, there appears to be a few adult content pop ups, that was my cause for concern, if these have now stopped then I have no issue with the flagging being removed, perhaps if we wait 14 days and then it is rechecked, if the pop up's are still not around then we lift the content block. --Atrades 02:00, 27 November 2007 (PST)

Bro Obed,
Thanks for posting your comments on my talk page. It's been couple of days since i joined Aboutus.org and i still cant figure out what this portal is all about... if they're making another wikipedia?
And another interesting thing about me is that, i am from Lahore too :D ...

edit Welcoming
Hi, I was about to use my personal welcome template for User:Khawar-king, when I noticed that the contributions in the diff I was viewing were in an arabic or persian script. Perhaps they speak Urdu? If so, I thought I'd give someone more likely to be familiar with the language the opportunity to welcome them. Thanks, and happy editing, Steven | talk 16:24, 8 December 2007 (PST)

Thanks for your most kind comments. It's really great to get a reaction. I find that getting, what I believe is a good contribution, accepted, etc, is a slow task but worthwhile. The Dublin metro is now at an advanced stage of planning and hopefully by getting ideas out there benefits to all will accrue.
Many thanks again,
Cormac
edit SIR!
Obed Tiger! Boy kya haal hain? How's AboutUs going? (Felt like linking that; aakhir kuch to seekha hai na! :D ) And how's my chess partner/smoking partner-in-crime? I'm pretty sure you guys are still there, but thought I'd ask anyway. Saliha told me Ray's hired a lot of new people. What's the scene like now?
Acha, really quickly, what's the name of the site that tells you whether or not a website is safe? I remember I used it on patrol but can't remember it now! Hit me back and take care. Umair Tamim

edit AutoAnything page
Hi Obed,
Our AutoAnything page looks great. I look forward to directing more traffic to it. When do you think it might start showing up in Google search results?
edit Related domains
Hi Obed Unfortunately I linked to my page from related domains before reading the guidelines. I might have overdone it and it now looks as if all of these have been removed. Is this because this has been interpreted as spam or because the page owners themselves have removed them? If the former, if I start again and stick to the guidelines will they stay in situ.
Thanks
- It does look like you overdid it a bit :-) Check out the InternalLinkingGuide - but if you legitimately consider those related domains, please feel free to revert the removal. I can show you easily how to do it if you would like! Check out a new idea for that section that gives better context at SnapNames.com - Best,

Hi Obed, Thank you for looking at my site, WilmingtonHomesPro I am a new and wannabe techy. I am currently working on the site. I hope to add a lot more content. I am still organizing, developing, and learning about web design. Right now I am working on SEO. I also have another site by a web designer LeadingYouHomeNC He does not know that I am testing his skills against my template site. Please continue to visit and check out my other site as well. I would love feed back and tips. Please forward it to others you know. Perhaps I can link to them and vice versa. Best wishes, Heather

My wife's Wiki Page - you left this message various features of the website.

What does this mean
Dave
- Hi Dave, the domain page mywakeuptomakeup.com was nominated to be featured on June 5, 2007, and Umair left a few suggestions on the page to improve it further. However, I moved it to the last chance section, as no work had been done on this page since September 2007. If you are willing to work further on this page, it can be moved out of the Last Chance list and will again have a chance to get featured on the front page. Feel free to write to me if you have any questions. Best, Obed Suhail 04:57, 28 January 2008 (PST)
edit Template Changes
Hello... I have been trying to edit a site on about.com, but every few weeks the template layout changes. First, they added "Take the Wiki tour" and "Watch an intro video" buttons; now, more recently, "Influence Us" buttons were added.
This is all being done on the right side of the text description of the Web sites. In turn, the formatting of the Web site text changes and gets scrambled up, so everything needs to be reformatted again!
Couldn't these people - whoever dream up these changes - possibly add all these features on another area, so that the Web site formatting doesn't get affected? Just a thought... Thanks, Nauplia
- If you are formatting a page based on what the domain box looks like on your screen, in your operating system, and in your browser, it's more than likely "broken" for most other people anyway. Effective webdesign doesn't depend on something like the domain box. Notice what happens when someone increases the text size because they're eyes aren't as good as yours, for example. Does the design still work? peace, TedErnst (talk)
Hi - I agree about proper Web design, however the editing tools available on the AboutUs pages don't allow for any work-arounds. For instance, the problem in question could be solved with simply line breaks, which however are ignored by the program, which forces the text to continue to the end of a page. So next time there is a template change, all the text, along with any pics gets rearranged all over the place. This forces one to add alt-0160 dummy spaces to fool the editor - which doesn't make sense. If line breaks were possible, then one could anticipate the changing size of the Info Box as more content is added, and one wouldn't have to reformat the text with every change. It's not that difficult to design a Web page that looks decent on most common browers and most common settings, however one still needs some basic tools. Regards, Nauplia
- I'm not at all sure what you mean. Two carriage returns puts in a blank line. WikiText is very simple, and very powerful. TedErnst (talk) 08:41, 28 February 2008 (PST)
Ok, I just figured out that the HTML code for line breaks works in WIKI editors as well. Problem solved. Thanks for your feedback, Nauplia

Hi Obed! Love our Wiki page, thank you so much for this, it looks great!
question for you: do our featured listings automatically reflect any changes through our website, or does it have to be edited regularly?
thanks

edit SouthBucksBridgeCentre.co.uk
Obed,
I'm confused as to why you took the SouthBucksBridgeCentre.co.uk off the SpotlightArticles/InProgress list. Is it because they don't want to be listed as promoted? Or because you are done with the page (at which point I need to move them to "Spotlighted" and they still would keep the category on their page)?
In either case, can you ping John and I on these rather than editing the various SpotlightArticles lists? Right now we are trying to hold it all together ourselves to make sure the clients have been taken care of until the CRM system can be set up to help with the tracking and then we'll be training everyone on the proper steps for the nuances we've been doing.
-- TakKendrick | talk
15:11, 29 February 2008 (PST)
- Alright, John and I figured out what was happening. So, if I'm understanding correctly: 1) We'll consider this done; 2) We won't spotlight it because the customer hasn't responded. We've marked this in our records. Let me know if this is not the case. Thanks. TakKendrick | talk

edit Influence Us Link
I'd like to use my AboutUs page as the place were my customer's go to leave reviews. So I'd like to have a link from my site (estampeinc.com) to my AboutUs page for Estampe Auto Dealer Supplies. I see in the Help section were you offer 'AboutUs' link badges/buttons I can add to my site ... which is fine and would work. But do you offer a 'Influence Us' badge/button that would link directly to the form on my company wiki page? Or is that not an efficient approach

Hi Obed, Thanks for your nice comment. I have been an active [Wikipedia editor] since 2005 and just recently discovered the possibilities of Aboutus.com. I am loving it and wish to remain associated with Aboutus.com as an active editor for a very long time. I am from Kolkata. It's great to know that there is a wonderful team of Aboutus.com based in Lahore. I am still learning things here, but I am picking up fast because it is pretty much like editing Wikipedia.--pinakighosh 05:48, 4 June 2008 (PDT)

edit About Category
Hi Obed, right now I'm working to optimize the categorization of FeaturedPages and HighlightedPages. So first of all I think subpages such as
etc. should not be categorized in to Category:AboutUsSpotlighted. What do you think?
- Oh, I figured it out, it was auto-included with the template, so now I made the inclusion optional. If it's a subpage, then use {{PromoteMeUnderConstruction|cat=no}}. The parameter "cat" actually takes anything, so even if you type "cat=yes" still it will turn on the code that I added to the {{PromoteMeUnderConstruction}} and thereby didn't include the Category:AboutUsSpotlighted.
- See also RedirectCategory that I devised. Hopefully it could help the categorization better. – (-_-)V cats the web bennylin (talk • cont) 18:22, 11 July 2008 (PDT)

Hi Obed,
I helped a user called "Databuild.com.au" today, because someone had left a bad comment next to their name and so I removed the bad comment by adding a "-" in it's place.
Anyway, I saw that you were on their page helping them also by rolling back the bad comments all together - thanks for that.
I was wondering if you could help me? How do I make it so that people can search for Octal8 on AboutUs.org and find us. I've added a page - but when I search for us no search results come up?
Cheers,
