== Uh, am I retarded? ==

I seriously thought you were already an admin. Man, I'm losing my mind in my old age. Oh, and my accent isn't getting any better either ;). Good luck on the Rfa, and you ''obviously'' have a support from this guy here. ]]] 22:18, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

Metodija Andonov - Čento

Ummm, why did you remove the only source the article had? I left the unreferenced tag as it still needs a loto of work to get properly referenced, but still why? The user that removed it first is surely the same that removes the deletion tag from Slušam kaj šumat šumite and threatens to beat me up in the edit summaries and are most probably socks of User:Amacos who is currently blocked. --Laveol 10:54, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

I'm awarding you this RickK Anti-Vandalism Barnstar for your great contributions to protecting and reverting attacks of vandalism on Misplaced Pages. Wikidudeman 11:35, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

Your RfA

It's done! :-) Now take your time answering to the standard questions. Acalamari should drop by to write his nom as well. Don't forget to change the ending time before transcluding your RfA to WP:RFA. Good luck! :-) Best regards, Húsönd 15:02, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

Hi Giggy! I´ve just returned from vacations and I saw your message; and I noticed this new thread! So, best of luck in your RfA! :) TomasBat 15:13, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
Is it live yet? I want to beat the noms :-) --Boricuaeddie 02:12, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
That's okay. I'll wait. I hope you didn't mind the questions! :-) --Boricuaeddie 02:18, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Revert question:

Giggy, could you please tell why you reverted my changes to the ICMI page. The information I put is bona fide. I am involved with the organization of ICME-11, the web site I included is the official ICME-11 web site. The chair of ICMI, Michele Artigue, is a member of the international program committee (IPC) organizing ICME-11. The chair of the IPC is Marcela Santillan (IPCChair@icme11.org). I see no reason for the information I put not to be included in the ICMI page. If there is something you need, please let me know. Best regards, Echoedgar 22:36, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

Moving on up

Hey Giggy!

Thanks, I hadn't noticed! ;) Best wishes and happy editing, Firsfron of Ronchester 20:52, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

RfC on reverting edit of ICMI page

Giggy:

Did you get my previous message? I would like to know what led you to revert my edit of the ICMI page. ICMI carries on certain activities that include ICME, regional meetings and special studies. The information I added is OK and useful. I was not experimenting. There is no reason I can think of for reverting the edit, but I suppose you have your reasons. I have now signed in so that you may identify me as a registered user. One more question, did you do this on your own initiative or are you a special user invested with authority by Misplaced Pages to do it? Is there some Misplaced Pages policy I disregarded? Of course, I have avoided editing it once again before we can discuss it. Please respond. Cheers, Echoedgar 22:21, 27 July 2007 (UTC) Sorry, I didn't get the hang of this until now so you got this message twice plus my previous one , two without a title. Echoedgar 22:29, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
Just one more comment: I found this on the help section
Do not revert good faith edits. In other words, try to consider the editor "on the other end." If what one is attempting is a positive contribution to Misplaced Pages, a revert of those contributions is inappropriate unless, and only unless, you as an editor possess firm, substantive, and objective proof to the contrary. Mere disagreement is not such proof. See also Misplaced Pages:Assume_good_faith.
Did you adhere to this? What proof, or even hint, of vandalism do you have? Sorry, but I am annoyed.

The RfA

About my RfA, it could not pass, or it can pass. But I won't care as long as people see it. If I have to work on Misplaced Pages for longer, then I will, or whatever the rules are.

PS. Why is there a template saying that you've been indef-blocked? There's nothing in your block log.--Willy, your mate 01:56, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Fine then. As you say, I will withdrawl and apply later again in the year.Willy, your mate 01:59, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Your RfA

Aren't you going to transclude it? You've accepted it now. :) Acalamari 02:19, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Ah, I see. Unfortunately, he hasn't been online for several hours, so I'm not sure when he'll see the nomination. Plus, his two recent edits were to place vacation templates on his user and talk pages. Acalamari 02:25, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
I beat them :-) --Boricuaeddie 02:35, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
My pleasure :-) Ducks are too slow; coquís are as fast as Speedy Gonzales :-) --Boricuaeddie 02:41, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
Hah! Mischievous little mice are no match for the (deceivingly) tranquile ducks which, unlike popular belief, prey on rodents. Húsönd 02:50, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
I managed to catch it going through the Willy RFA discussion, I was waiting for you to transclude it so I could be first(hell I remembered the old RFA and thought you already were sysopped) but alas had to handle some lobby traffic and was conflicted... Dureo 02:49, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
omg trumped by Husond...well at least there are time stamps :) Dureo 02:53, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
Heh, sorry. :-) I just wanted to reply directly below the Speedy Gonzales comment. Húsönd 02:57, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
Excuse me guys, but only I may use this page for such important matters. Discuss Husond's (lack of) speed elsewhere :P Giggy UP 03:11, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
Ha! You're only jealous that we're both faster than you :P --Boricuaeddie 03:16, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
Yeah, I could still co-nom, but I have a thing against post-transclusion noms. You'll pass either way though. Wizardman 03:15, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
Good luck Horhey! Dfrg.msc 07:10, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Hey Dood

I see you have made explicit remarks concerning your regret about supporting my RfA. That is a giant mistake. I have protected your RfA page: only established users with less than 3 edits may contribute. Have fun getting that consensus. Muahahahaha. the_undertow 03:33, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Thank you

Thank you
Thank you for your opposition of my recent unsuccsessful rfa, which concluded today with a final tally of 22/15/3. The comments and suggestions from this rfa, combined with the comments left during my first rfa, have given me a good idea of where I need improvement.

RfA

I strongly opposed your RFA, because you are a terrible candidate ;) Sebi  10:23, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Adoption & Mentoring

Hey Giggy,

I'm planning to update the Adoption pages to an extent- including dealing with that ancient proposed merge of mentoring and adoption. Seeing as you're one of the few active editors there, I thought I'd let you know. I plan to merge adoption and mentoring into one page- and differentiate between mentoring/adoption and the disciplinary variant. I'll also create a separate page for the disciplinary variant and notify the ArbCom. If you have any objections to my proposals, please do drop me a note.

Have a nice day,

The Rhymesmith 10:27, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Surprise!

Dick Van Dyke has visited you! Dick "somehow" promotes WikiLove and wants you to be happy today, and hopefully he has managed to make your day better. Spread the WikiLove by giving something friendly to someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Come on now, go and make someone happy today, or Dick will hug you till you choke, dear Giggy! :) Happy editing! - Phaedriel - 11:50, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Please respond to my revert question

Giggy:
Sorry to insist, but I would like an answer. I made a serious attempt to improve the ICMI page as an IP user and you reverted my edit using an anti-vandalism tool and directing me to experiment in the sandbox. I believe you acted in good faith, but did not adhere to wikipedia rules. I would like understand what led you you to do this so I can attempt once again to edit the ICMI page. Best regards, Echoedgar 15:43, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Thank you

Thank you for your support at my recent Misplaced Pages:Requests for adminship/Angus Lepper RfA, which failed, with no consensus to promote me. However, I appreciate the concerns raised during the course of the discussion (most notably, a lack of experience, particularly in admin-heavy areas such as XfDs and policy discussions) and will attempt to address these before possibly standing again in several months time. Angus Lepper 15:58, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks!

My RFA
User:TenPoundHammer and his romp of Misplaced Pages-editing otters thank you for participating in Hammer's failed request for adminship, and for the helpful tips given to Hammer for his and his otters' next run at gaining the key. Also, Hammer has talked to the otters, and from now on they promise not to leave fish guts and clamshells on the Articles for Deletion pages anymore. Ten Pound Hammer16:45, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Re: Your comment

Hi Giggy - you wrote Yay for Grutness! :) Thank you! It's nice to know my work here's appreciated! Grutness...wha? 01:15, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

GAC help

Giggy, you seem to know alot about GAC – do you mind explaining how it works to me, and show me the ropes? Really confused. Thanks, Sebi  08:12, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

Can you do me a favor?

Can you look over Shambo and give me your opinion on whether the article violates NPOV? I can't really tell honestly... it sort of seems like it does, but also seems like it doesn't. Thanks. --HAL2008talk 14:09, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

Voyager ep AfD

Hi, Giggy. I noticed that you !voted delete in this AfD, saying that the article failed WP:V. A number of reliable sources have been added to the article in question since your comment. Would you be willing to take another look at the page and consider whether your verifiability concerns have been addressed? Thanks. —Josiah Rowe (talkcontribs) 19:43, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

Uh, am I retarded?

I seriously thought you were already an admin. Man, I'm losing my mind in my old age. Oh, and my accent isn't getting any better either ;). Good luck on the Rfa, and you obviously have a support from this guy here. Jmlk17 22:18, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
