:Yeah, I've been doing less admin stuff and more janitorial stuff. Specifically, I've been doing alot of work on ]'s projects, especially the categorizing good articles project. As for NLP, it's goin'. We have a threatening revert war. *sigh* But we're trying to nip that in the bud. If anything else, the references look much better. --]<sup>]</sup> 04:06, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

== Messhermit's RFA ==
Hello there!


--] via ] (]) 00:06, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
I’m writing regarding a RFA against my person, Messhermit. I have been absent from editing from Misplaced Pages for some time, due to Finals in College and for personal reasons (I needed to take a break, I don’t like lengthy discussions).

== Invitation to participate in a research ==
However, I found with the surprise that apparently the committee has reached a conclusion without giving me the opportunity to portray my side of the story. I tried to reach another of the parties involved in the arbitration, receiving a positive answer assuring me that the case and its outcome can wait until I finish my finals .


Hello,
I now humble ask a chance to expose my case and not being judged with only one side of the conflict portrayed. I believe that Misplaced Pages is a fair place to work and that all this can be settle without reaching extremes. Please, I’ll be waiting for an answer. ]


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 ''''''.
P.D. As a side note, I have my evidence on Notepad. I will be posting it in a couple of days.


You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.
== Implementation notes ==


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

:The probation has, the proposed topical ban has not. I put a commented out note that you may have missed: "<nowiki><!--2.5 and 2.7 undecided as of yet--></nowiki>". I plan to update it with the final result when all the votes are in. ]·] 07:01, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
:: From what I understand remedy #2 and #5 should be listed as undecided as well since there are five active ArbCom members who haven't voted yet. --] 07:23, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
:::Only needed five supports to pass, but the point is moot in any case now, as there have been new voters while I was sleeping. ]·] 17:32, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

:Thanks for your note. Of course, I'm a bit disappointed - as for the late timing, let me point out that I submitted something much along the same lines (only less formally) much earlier, on the ], immediately after the first proposals had been made. Should I have put it on Workshop from the start? It's of course quite unfortunate that whatever proposals or requests any of us has submitted anywhere on these pages has been immediately submerged by a heap of drivel from various sides :-( One problem (I think for all of the parties) in this case has been that we never got much overt feedback from the committee about which of our arguments were actually reaching their destination, so people felt compelled to go on and on and on arguing and submitting evidence in defense of this or that.

:::Yes, I understand that, and that's exactly why I didn't press my proposals earlier. But now I'm left with the slightly bitter feeling that the smokescreen bickering tactics of the other side has actually succeeded in preventing the committee from taking note of some things that I still find were clear and compelling. For instance, I still find it difficult to understand why Aucaman is censured for incivility when Kash is not, or why Zereshk gets off Scot-free with his involvement in the "Iranian noticeboard" (which, to me, is still the heart of the matter, much more than any particular edit war). ] <small><sup>]|]</sup></small> 18:22, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

The user has a history of personal attacks, (such as and ), he my user page once, and I've caught him using open proxies, such as {{user|59.144.164.185}} to disguise himself.
