DMOZ

DMOZ links are acceptable, in fact, they are one of the ways of preventing linkfarms in articles. As far as worrying about the article inaccessable to those behind content filters... That's not our concern. –xeno (talk) 13:26, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

Milton cooper was a criminal

Why you defending him, he attempted to murder a sheriff, wether you want to accept the truth or not! Your personal fantasy does not overide the truth. Block me and ill take action and change my IP in about 30 minutes :)--203.192.91.4 (talk) 16:28, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

Editor Review

Hey, thanks for the review :). In response to the last comment i'm not currently looking to go for an RfA; i've decided to wait until someone else nominates me before doing so.

Thanks, on that topic, for the oppose vote in my RfA, and that isn't sarcasm! Looking back I wouldn't have voted support, never mind other editors! So thanks for preventing the sysopping of a truly appalling admin candidate :P. Ironholds 23:30, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

I dont think your any more appalling then some of the candidates ive seen, At the time you were about a 4.5 on the candidate scale (0 = Appualing, 10 = Excellent). I would have opposed for the in-experiance (and i did) but im ashamed to admit the the atheist userbox did come to mind and closed the deal, which was somewhat un-professional of me. That given if you run again I would probably support now. However im not willing nominate you (not that you've asked), I have a reputation at this time that could be contagious and would hate to lower your chances of you success.   «l| Ψrom3th3ăn ™|l»  (talk) 03:38, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

Thanks; it wasn't un-professional at all; the concerns raised were valid. Ironically the only possible unprofessionalism would be the same logic as the oppose from the other side. I was opposed since showing my atheistic beliefs would make any edits to do with religious material suspect regardless of my intentions; in contrast, the only reason your oppose could be considered un-professional would be if it was driven by your religious beliefs :P. I know that probably isn't the case, but I find it funny anyway, haha. I'd rather have spontaneous nom's rather than "hey, can you sponsor me?"; a good friend of mine did that'n a while back, and while I feel he is an excellent bloke to be wielding the banhammer I do feel that tainted the proceedings (at least for me) somewhat. In regards to your reputation; massive cock-ups are normally extremely visible on WP, and i've heard nothing, so it can't be that bad. Ironholds 04:17, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

Re: Comments to User talk:Deskana

Prom3th3an, it is generally considered polite to warn a user before issuing them a block, so that's what I decided to do. If you do not wish to be warned, then I shall bear that in mind. --Deskana (talk) 10:09, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

Very well, next time I shall use my one of my favourite templates when I feel the need to leave a message on your talk page: {{block-reason}} --Deskana (talk) 12:17, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

Comment

I see you are apparently interested in eventually passing RFA. I might note that Jimbo and sending emails that 2 arbitrators specifically warn you are out of line is more likely to result in a template from a category like this than an RFA promotion template. You might want to take a step back and re-evaluate the situation at this point. MBisanz 11:03, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

I was actually listing my rationale to support/oppose other candidates. Adminship doesnt interest me at this time, but may in the very distent future.   «l| Ψrom3th3ăn ™|l»  (talk) 14:51, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

chill out, mon frere

hey man, just thought I'd drop in and just suggest you forget about this whole SC situation. now do you see why I don't bother with IRC/Skype/any of that off-wiki business? just keep it all in the open, imo. take it easy, –xeno (talk) 12:32, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

A few tips about closing RfAs

Misplaced Pages:Requests_for_adminship/Jagun First, it's best not to close something you personally voted in, like an RfA or an AfD. Second, maybe I can refer you to User:Enigmaman/SNOW, which contains all the steps for closing an RfA. You seem to have missed a few. Cheers, Enigma 13:35, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
