Feel free to continue exploring the wonderful world of wiki and be sure to let us/me know if you have any questions (you can talk to me via the message link below). I wonder if you might want to add a little information about yourself on your user page? (You can see an example of this by clicking my name below.) Please don't hesitate to let me know if you'd like some assistance in accomplishing your goals on AboutUs and if you want some help or new ideas I've found this to be a nice resource. Welcome to the AboutUs community - it's great to have you!

Have a most wonderful day!

thanks for the reviews

Hello and thank you for the reviews you have added to wiki pages. If you are adding text that is a review of a company or website, please add it to the Community Review section below: Additional Information, just click edit and add the review, you might need to add the section as well. best, Kasey 12:11, 9 April 2007 (PDT)

Hi again! to make a header just bracket the words Community Reviews by ==, thanks for all the good work! Kasey 14:20, 12 April 2007 (PDT)

Hello

It's great that you are contributing reviews to AboutUs.org and helping to build the commons, but I did notice a change you made to Undzwach.com in which you changed the words and thus meaning of the description section to make it a review of sorts, but a misleading description section. Reviews need to be kept to the "community reviews" section - reviews elsewhere will be reverted. Keep up the good work and have a great day!

Hi, I added a category to your PersonalPage. Please revert if you would like. Nice work, btw! Best, MarkDilley

Hello

Hey Miyuki, Thanks for all your great reviews- ran across this one today and was curious why you deleted it: [1] Please let me know if you ever need any help, and thanks again for being such a great contributor. Isabel 13:05, 9 May 2007 (PDT)

Great- I figured you did it on purpose but just wanted to check. Thanks again for all your great work! Isabel

Just a reminder to follow CommunityReviewsFormatting. Thanks.

KristinaWeis | **talk** 17:59, 4 June 2007 (PDT)

Sorry: I entered the sonyjobjapan.com information first thing in the morning and forgot to put in the "Community Review" formatting. Also, I have been a bit upset about a friend's death from leukemia over the weekend. I have since entered the "Community Review" formatting. I noticed that etouf.com and mvkm.com are also on the list for needing "Community Review" formatting; but when I checked the respective pages, the "Community Review" sections were there. Miyuki

I am so sorry to hear that. I'm glad I noticed the message you left me, I wasn't alerted since the message is on your talk page and not mine. No, that's fine... I just wanted to remind you in case you forgot. It's not big deal, you're certainly making constructive edits here. Have a great day - I hope you feel better.

Signature

I think I neglected to tell you this, but you can sign your username (that also links to your PersonalPage) with a timestamp by leaving four tildas (~). Do you think you could use this feature to sign your community reviews? KristinaWeis 03:53, 5 July 2007 (PDT) (talk 17:59, 29 September 2007 (PDT)

I believe I flag almost everything I view as "possbile adult content," although, being a mere human being, I may sometimes forget. If you are referring to some specific case in which I have forgotten, please specify it.

Actually I don't like the euphemistic term "possible adult content." To me、Tolstoy and James Joyce, for example, are "adult content." I would prefer to call pornography or smut by their real names, but I have as much as possible been following wikipedia's directions about this matter. Miyuki 18:09, 29 September 2007 (PDT)

I don't have any specifics in front of me. I came across a couple that had {{PossibleAdultContent}} on them. Not a big deal, it's just easier to use the flag function, in my opinion. Your reviews and marking of pages definitely makes this place better, no question. I'm not meaning to say anything other than an easier way.

And as for euphemisms, not sure what to say about that one, in a wiki environment. The community has to have a way to decide about these things, and the AdultContentPolicy is what we have now. If you'd like to propose changes to it, let's talk about that, okay? TedErnst | talk 18:20, 29 September 2007 (PDT)

Ted, I was only stating my own personal taste about the euphemistic (to me) "possible adult content." I realize that issue has been settled by consensus by the wiki staff, and I have no bones with that. Miyuki 18:28, 29 September 2007 (PDT)

It wasn't only the staff that came to consensus on the policy, it was also the community. In fact, we had more community members involved than staff. And it's a wiki, so if things need to change, they can change. Or we can drop it. Either way is okay with me. I just wanted you to know that it is possible to change things, if need be. TedErnst | talk 18:34, 29 September 2007 (PDT)

Ted, That was my simple misunderstanding whether it was a staff or community decision. I really don't have a big issue with the majority's desire to flag things as "possible adult content," even though my own inclination would be to call pornography or smut by what they really are. The reason I started posting here in the first place, despite my very busy schedule, is because I felt the mostly smutty Japanese spam-veritized sites with an aboutus page (which I discovered on samspade.org when trying to trace the origin of spam) ought to be exposed for what they really are. I'm not a prude, but most of the Japanese spam is so disgusting. Miyuki 19:22, 29 September 2007 (PDT)

I thnk it's great what your'e doing with the spam sites. peace, TedErnst | talk 16:02, 30 September 2007 (PDT)

I agree with your latest suggestion to me. Miyuki 16:40, 30 September 2007 (PDT)

Thank you.

Thank you. TedErnst | talk 17:08, 30 September 2007 (PDT)

You're very welcome. Miyuki 18:09, 30 September 2007 (PDT)

WikiLink

Hey Miyuki, do you think it makes sense to WikiLink in your community reviews? I am a bit of a WikiLink] fanatic, so I am not sure with these sites. Here is an example, please revert if you want. [2] Best, MarkDilley

Frankly, I am not quite sure what you mean. These sites are all linked, because several of them have sent me the exact same message, or else many of them use the exact same "unsubscribe" address (). Also, several of them are either registered at the same phony address or with the same telephone number. This is all part of Japan's leading "deai-kei" spam/one-click fraud group, awg/youngjo le. Best wishes for the new year, Miyuki

Nice work on flaging the malware porn site

Please keep it up. Igorberger 06:58, 26 December 2007 (PST)
