Does it need to be "moved" or what? Knorderval 23:31, 6 December 2005 (UTC)knorderval Yes, there are two entries for Monique Buzzarté: Monique_Buzzarté and Buzzarte. How can they be consolidated into one entry? Knorderval 16:54, 10 December 2005 (UTC) Thank you very much for your welcome 'Violin Girl'. I also play(ed) the violin coincidentally, for ten years, but that is another story. But again, thank you and good luck with your studies.

Today is your 1-month Wikipedia birthday! I gave you a surprise. LifeMega 20:32, 4 December 2005 (UTC) == Many happy returns of the day == Thank you for the friendly welcome, ViolinGirl, and for showing me, by example, how to make my own sandbox. --CKA3KA (Skazka) 21:13, 5 December 2005 (UTC) == Special characters == Hi, ViolinGirl, and thanks for the question. :) The question marks you see are not vandalism. Due to technical limitations, some Web_browsers may not display certain special characters. Such characters may be rendered as boxes, question marks (as in your case), or other nonsense symbols, depending on your browser, operating system, and installed fonts. Even if you have ensured that your browser is interpreting the text as UTF-8 encoded and you have installed a font that supports a wide range of Unicode (such as ''Code2000'', ''Arial_Unicode_MS'', ''Lucida_Sans_Unicode'' or one of the Free_software_Unicode_fonts), you may still need to use a different browser, as browser capabilities in this regard tend to vary. (Note: Much of this text was taken from Template:SpecialChars ;-) Regards, Sango123 (talk) 21:46, 5 December 2005 (UTC) :You're very welcome; please let me know if you need anything else. Oh, and thanks for switching to Firefox! :D Sango123 (talk) 00:29, 6 December 2005 (UTC) == Hello!!! == I appreciate you have accepted me at Wikipedia.

I'm glad to help to Wikipedia community. --DieHard2K5 == Edit summaries == When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labelled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this: :Edit summary text box The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See M:Help:Edit_summary for full information on this feature. When you leave the edit summary blank, some of your edits could be mistaken for vandalism and may be reverted, so please always briefly summarize your edits, especially when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you. --Ryan Delaney talk 13:49, 7 December 2005 (UTC) Hey. I'm doing Wikipedia:RC_patrol and I noticed you were welcoming a lot of people. Thanks a lot for doing that! It's a great help. But it would be even better if you could put something in the edit summary so RC patrollers would know what posts they can ignore. It would be a big help to us. Thanks again! --Ryan Delaney talk 13:52, 7 December 2005 (UTC) == Thanks for the suggestion == Thank you for suggesting that I look at Sango123's talk page. I liked it so much, in fact, that I lifted it for myself. I wasn't completely shameless, however. I left a message on Sango123's talk page and got ''ex post facto'' approval. Thanks, again, for all your help. --CKA3KA (Skazka) 23:30, 7 December 2005 (UTC) == Question re:blocking == Hi, I saw that you blocked the new user Jakeremingtonandtherattlesnakes. If you haven't done so already, do you think the new user Weloverhodrimarsdenmostly is the same person? It looks to be the same style. I'm too unsure to block him myself.--ViolinGirl 14:14, 8 December 2005 (UTC) :It is possible, but I am not sure enough to block. Anyway, Jakeremingtonandtherattlesnakes was a relatively impotent vandal, if he starts again with a new account we can just block him again.

You play classical music?!?!? Bravo! So do I. I've actually played the piano for 13 years. What's you're all time favorite piece? As common as it is, I think mine might have to be Clair de Lune. Probably because my dad loves it so much. Mickeyrudi 00:01, 9 December 2005 (UTC) :I mostly listen to bands like Jars_of_Clay, or Hillsong_United. But as far as classical music, I absolutely love straight piano, but I also go for orchestra stuff, too. My latest favorite song is "Linus and Lucy With The Band" by Vince_Guaraldi. Its' just an absolutely awesome combination of piano, brass, and rhythym. I'm not all that knowledgeable about classical piano...I just love to play anything classical when I run across it. Sorry, but I don't think I can help with your Variations. Mickeyrudi 17:54, 9 December 2005 (UTC) I listened to the Morning Mood song you told me about and actually, I have a CD of the whole Peer Gynt suite! That's one of my dad's favorites also, but I think he likes "In The Hall of the Mountain King" better. (That comes later in the suite.) If you want, you can hear the version of "Morning Mood" that I have by clicking here. I don't know if you already have this but, oh well! Nice getting to "know" you too! - Mickeyrudi 14:28, 13 December 2005 (UTC) == User:Bunchograpes == Thank you very, very much for pointing him out. I owe you one. —Bunchofgrapes (talk) 00:02, 11 December 2005 (UTC) == Thank you for your kind welcome == I was also kind eneogh to back up your page.

Thanks to NSLE, the page linked was deleted. == Not a problem == Not a problem, glad to help. :) NSLE (T+C+CVU) 01:09, 11 December 2005 (UTC) == Thanks! == Thanks for the joke. No, I've never heard it before, and I confess I don't really get it. Not all pieces have measure numbers... But an eye for an eye, I say, so here's one for you. :An elderly man is walking along the shore, when he spots a beat-up looking bottle on the ground. He picks it up, and notices it is corked. Being a man of great intelligence and inquisitiveness, he opens it , and lo and behold, out comes a genie! :"Thank you, oh thank you," says the genie, "I've been trapped in this bottle for a thousand years, and you, my friend, have saved me. For that, I shall grant you three wishes." :"Well," the old man says, "I know my first wish right away. I want my children, as they grow up, always to have enough money. Not too much, for I want them to work at what they love, which is naturally music, as I am the conductor of the Israeli Philharmonic Orchestra, and I have given them the gift of music. But I also want them not too have little, so they can be comfortable, and educate their own children." :"Done." responds the genie. "What else do you desire?" :"Well, I have lived in this country for sixty-five years, and always is it wracked with violence." :"Violence, you say? I must have been gone for quite a long while. Are the Israeli people still fighting with the pharaoh of Egypt?" :"Oh no," answers the conductor, "that was a very long time ago, in our ancient history. Here, let me show you a map." So the conductor gets out a world map, and explains for a very long time the whole history of the Israeli-Palestinian_conflict. After a very long consideration of the matter, the genie comes out with his answer. :"I am so very sorry, but I'm afraid I cannot do this. It is just...well, I cannot fix this international conflict. It is truly beyond my powers." The genie sighs. :"Oh, that's too bad, too bad. Can I have another wish?" the conductor asks imploringly. :"Oh, yes, of course." :"Then if you could, I have just this little problem in my orchestra. All my life I cannot fix this, and I am sure you can help. In my orchestra, no matter how hard I implore or have them rehearse, I cannot get the violists to play together. During our symphonies, it is just chaos. Utter chaos. I beg of you, please help!" :The genie stops, thinks for a moment, and says, "Um, could I have another look at that map?" So there you have it, a long joke. Hope you enjoyed it, and feel free to shoot me another note anytime! Cheers, Bratschetalk | Esperanza 03:29, 11 December 2005 (UTC) == Thanks == Thanks for the cookies! :D Chooserr == Thanks for fixing my lack of cookies... == Thank you (!!!)
I was lost without those cookies.

Have a nice day!
