Hello,


The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Misplaced Pages, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this ''''''.
==A request for assistance==
Would you support the concept of moving the Earhart "myths" to a separate page or article? The reason for my suggesting this is that the main article should be an accurate and scholarly work while the speculation and conspiracy theories surrounding the disappearance of Amelia Earhart are interesting, they belong in a unique section. Most researchers, as you know, discount the many theories and speculation that has arisen in the years following her last flight. Go onto the Earhart discussion page and register your vote/comments...and a Happy New Year to you as well. ] 05:02 3 January 2007 (UTC).


You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.
== My Request for Adminship ==

Hi! Out of enthusiasm about your AntiVandalBot, I made a logo for it. I posted it in AntiVandalBot's user talk page. Could you take a look? Thanks. If you want, you could modify it in any ways you like & maybe take out the "AntiVandalBot" phrase so that it could be applied to all bots in Misplaced Pages. (] 01:59, 10 January 2007 (UTC))

== re: escalating warnings left by AntiVandalBot ==


Hello,
Good evening. Thanks for the quick response. On the second issue, I'm more than happy to stick with the standard Test1-4 series. That's all I normally use regardless. My question is more one of theoretical possibility. Most of the warning templates have a standardized hidden reference to the template they came from - always in the format <tt><nowiki><!-- Template:Test1 (first level warning) --></nowiki></tt>. I don't know whether it's possible for the bot to read the page's source code to look for that pattern or not. I wouldn't even consider trying to do that myself but I've seen you code things that I would have said were impossible so I figured that it couldn't hurt to ask.


I recently invited you to take a survey about administration on Misplaced Pages. If you haven’t yet had a chance, there is still time to participate– we’d truly appreciate your feedback. The survey is anonymous and should take about 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its ] and view its ].
Is there some other way that we could add a standardized tag to the most common warning templates so that the bot could recognize them and recommend escalation? Could we switch the template reference from a commented-out line to a line printed in the same color as the background or something? Or, thinking about it more, for this scenario we don't really care about the source template - maybe we only white-text the (first level warning) and ask the bot to search for that specific text in the last 5 lines of the user's page before appending the warning...


Take the survey ''''''.
Again, this would be useful but is not essential. The tool is doing a lot of good work already. I'm just feeling greedy... Balance my greed against the evils of feature-creep. Thanks again. ] <small>]</small> 00:29, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

AntiVandalBot reverted my edit to ] () as vandalism, and left me a message to that effect. In actuality, I was attempting to redirect the page per the result of its AfD discussion, but accidentally left out the hash mark. When I went to fix it a few seconds after the initial edit, I hit an edit conflict with AntiVandalBot, which was reverting my edit. Perhaps you could consider adding a slight time delay, maybe 30-45 seconds, to avoid these sorts of situations. Thanks, — ] <sup>''] ]''</sup> 02:15, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Having deleted this yet again myself, and recieving threats of banning and legal action as a result, I restored it and sent it to AfD in the hope that the creator/subject would accept consensus rather than repeating his threats on the talk page of every administrator involved.
