Hello,
==Removal of template acknowledging source of imported material==
Please see ]. I see that a dozen or more pages had that acknowledgment removed "per Danny". A violation of license, on the face of it. ] 18 Feb 2007


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 ''''''.
== Master Nan ==


You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.
I assume you are the one who deleted the article on Master Nan. I can't understand why you did that as the sources were cited and corrections were made to avoid copyright infringement. Moreover, at the time the only tag on the article was for the article to be cleaned up. All I did was try to reiterate some facts on a famous buddhist scholar and all the work put into it has been deleted in a flash and without warning. I cannot claim to be tech savvy enough to know whether you are directly responsible, but if so, it makes unfamiliar and new contributors like myself have a strong sense of distaste that there is not even the chance for correction. What's the point of trying to establish an article if it keeps on getting deleted before it's done. If you could please give specific reasons why it was deleted as the article was rewritten to avoid copyright infringement.


The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its ] and view its ] .

Hello,
I have reason to believe that Jason has been hiring Wikipedians for his Mahalo venture. There has been a wave of advertising targeted at Misplaced Pages over the last few days. This is more than just random noise. I am thinking about bringing this to ] and ]. Do you have any information on this?


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 ].
I see you added Mahalo to Calacanis' page with a reference. That's proper, and now that it's sourced, I would even support adding a disambiguation comment to ]. However, I have a big problem with this being done by people on Mahalo payroll, and I have an even bigger problem with them deleting other stuff from the ] page in an attempt to ] it.


Take the survey ''''''.
I am going to point ] to this and ask for her comments aswell. ] <sup>]</sup> 22:27, 3 June 2007 (UTC)


Kind Regards,
:: I have not hired any Wikipedians to work on Mahalo.com nor have I asked anyone from our staff to edit our page. In fact, I requested our page be completed via the Misplaced Pages channels. Also, if I did hire some Wikipedians to work at Mahalo would that be a bad thing? Hasn't Jimmy Wales hired a bunch of Wikipedians to work at Wikia? JasonCalacanis 22:32, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

::: I am glad to hear that you are following ]. You're welcome to hire anybody you like, including Wikipedians, as long as they follow that policy.

:::: OK, so when are you starting!?!? :-) Seriously, I think that there are many Wikipedians who would do a great job at Mahalo.com.

Tawker: Only now do I see that you blocked me on 19 May 07 . I was not online at that time so it did not come to my notice until now (4 June 07) so your action is totally lost on me because you should have let me know what was steaming you off and to see if I may have had something to say in my defense. I am not under any probation for anything. You should have advised me on my talk page ''before'' pushing your buttons. I have no idea why you acted against me then without giving me some warning. Can you explain yourself please so that I do not need to take further action against you. ] 02:21, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

Hi again: In fact, because I want to learn from the past, I went back and reviewed my editing history for the 17th and 18th May , leading up to your weird block, and I can find absolutely NO instance of "(talk page spamming / POV pushing / incivility)" during that time. Can you please explain yourself! ] 02:40, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

===Request===

<s>Tawker: Since you have failed to provide me with ''any'' proof or verifiable reasons (see ] and ]) why you instituted the block against me, and the best you can do is tell me (in violation of ]) on my talk page that: "Someone had brought it up on #wikipedia and had presented a fair number of diffs IIRC (this was over a week ago). I'm pretty sure I did post those diffs - not sure exactly why it didn't show up (maybe there was a loss of session and I didn't see it) In any case, what's past is past, you can edit now so all seems well to me." And I will repeat here what I sated to you in response:
<!-- Message sent by User:Cyberpower678@enwiki using the list at https://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Misplaced Pages:Arbitration_Committee_Elections_December_2024/Coordination/MM/01&oldid=1258243333 -->

:Where, what? Who posted what diffs? I need to know ''exactly'' so that I can at least understand what was happening and see if there is any explanation. What the heck is "#wikipedia" -- do you think I am a moron? I do not appreciate your condescending comment here of "what's past is past" as you are thereby violating ], and I certainly do not need your permission to edit anything AFAIK. I never heard of you or met you before. What do you know or have to do with Judaism articles where I mostly tend to edit?

And I have still not heard anything from you. '''I hereby request that you permanantly erase and remove and edit out (whatever the correct technical term is) from my Misplaced Pages your false and misleading "block"''' that you admit has no record and which you instituted against me without a single warning or indication of wrongdoing beyond generalized accusations ''<u>in the/your edit summary of that block ONLY</u>''. Kindly see to it that this is done ASAP and I also expect you to apologize for your gross misconduct and misuse of admin "powers". ] 04:33, 4 June 2007 (UTC)</s>

===Mistake===
Hi Tawker, I have struck my above comments, after I received the following message: "He blocked you , over a year ago. ]<!-- Was HighInBC --> 05:50, 4 June 2007 (UTC)"

However, even so, I have no memory of ''you'' contacting me then either or why you did what you did without warning. Do you have any memory of your actions as I would still like to clarify why you blocked me? ] 06:01, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

BAG membership

Hello. You are listed as a member of the Bot Approvals Group but it appears you may not be actively helping in this area anymore. Do you intend to return to BAG-related activity on Misplaced Pages, or are you happy to be removed from this list? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 12:57, 14 December 2023 (UTC)

Administrative permissions and inactivity reminder

Information iconThis is a reminder that established policy provides for removal of the administrative permissions of users who have made fewer than 100 edits over a 60-month period. You are receiving this annual reminder since you have averaged less than 50 edits per year over the last 5 years.

Inactive administrators are encouraged to reengage with the project in earnest rather than to make token edits to avoid loss of administrative permissions. Resources and support for reengaging with the project are available at Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Editor Retention/administrators. If you do not intend to be engaged with the project in the foreseeable future, please consider voluntarily resigning your administrative permissions by making a request at the bureaucrats' noticeboard.

Thank you for your past contributions to the project. — JJMC89 bot 00:35, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

Thanks - yes I have had significant time constraints - I will look to re-engage where I can. -- Tawker (talk) 22:18, 2 October 2024 (UTC)
