Hiya Wesley, backup Welcomer and Show format cleaner-upper MitchO welcoming you to the JoCopedia! We're just starting out everything, including our rules and help section, but feel free to poke around and add any suggestions and knowledge you have. Thanks for signing up. :D --MitchO 14:18, 26 April 2008 (EDT)

Thanks for working on the songs that don't have full info yet, Wesley ... do us a favor and check out a song like Shop Vac to see the standard format we use. --MitchO 14:28, 26 April 2008 (EDT)

I know it seems that I'm just spamming up your user talk page Wesley, but I just wanted to drop a note to say that I'm *loving* your formatting and information updates. You've already proven to be a great editor for us, and given me plenty of positive work to make the JoCopedia a great place. Thank you. --MitchO 11:33, 28 April 2008 (EDT)

Thanks for the compliment! I'm a big fan of JoCo, and I love this wiki, so it only makes sense for me to help out where I can :) Wesley 17:16, 28 April 2008 (EDT)

Hey Wesley, the new SongDetails looks good, and you can go ahead and replace the existing one if you like. Thanks for the improvement :) --Lex (talk - contribs) 07:47, 30 April 2008 (EDT)

WesBot has been bot'd now. That should definitely eliminate the Captcha for him, among a couple other bot permissions I don't know about for sure. --Lex (talk - contribs) 09:28, 5 May 2008 (EDT)

Bots have deletion rights now, so you should be able to delete all those Template:DATE pages now. :) (yes, I managed to do it at work, though not having my regular php editor makes things much worse) --Lex (talk - contribs) 07:24, 8 May 2008 (EDT)

Begging for someone smarter than me to help

And that someone is you, Wes. :) Do me a big favor, check out User:MitchO/Main Page and help me find where I'm missing the damn closings. I can't get my boxes to go where I want them to ... this is what happens when you cannibalize code instead of, you know ... knowing what you're doing. --MitchO 22:58, 4 May 2008 (EDT)

I knew there was a Bam! missing somewhere simple. I will fiddle with either what Bry or you added. Thank you both, I was going cross eyed over that one. --MitchO 08:51, 5 May 2008 (EDT)
No problem, and good luck! I look forward to what you and Bry cook up over there :) — Wesley | 08:55, 5 May 2008 (EDT)

I'm glad Mitch started a section with this title so I'd know where to post this. :) How's your PHP, Wesley? Could you modify the Inputbox extension to have it take two parameters (city and date) for the sake of show creation? (And for the record, I was in favor of titling these pages by date only, e.g. 2008-05-03, rather than Chicago, IL: 2008-05-03. That would've simplified things now; oh, well...) I think this may be the only situation in which it'd be useful to modify this code -- most of the other pages to be created are straightforwarder, I believe. --Bry 23:08, 7 May 2008 (EDT)

Unfortunately, I'm not good with PHP, and I have no idea how extensions work. I'm afraid I won't be able to modify Inputbox at all. However, it's possible to make something like this:

When you click Create show page, it actually includes a reminder about the song title at the top (where, admittedly, nobody reads). However, at least there's a sample page name for people to imitate. — Wesley | 23:29, 7 May 2008 (EDT)

Formatting on your user page

The page at User:Wesley's gone all wonky for me. Any idea what's up? --Bry 04:01, 5 May 2008 (EDT)

Oh shoot. Thanks for the heads-up. I think I got a little too fancy in putting in that fancy e in Pokemon. Man, that's an ugly-looking page right now though :P
Nope, turns out I forgot to make the curly quotation marks the right way. I thiiink it's safe to use curly quotation marks by typing &rsquo;, but I actually have to make sure I'm doing that :P Again, thanks for letting me know about the broken page!


A banana for you!

Really, all I do is use one person's code on another person's spot, but nonetheless this is to thank you and to test me modifying Percephene's code:

Thank you!

    MitchO wants to offer you a thank you banana!!!    

You're such a helpful
code monkey!
