== News Ltd Style Guide ==

Hi Sarahe,
re: your comment ], I was just wondering if you actually have a copy of the New Ltd Style Guide? I couldn't find one online... it does seem like a useful thing to have around.

BTW, if you haven't checked out ] (or Sydney, or Perth, or...) then I am sure you will find that an interesting resource, too. :)

<i>if you keep creating hoax articles about made-up words and trolling with sockpuppets, then you will continue bumping into us.</i>
<BR>I'm not a troll that's here to spy on other users.
<BR>I'm not here to ruin and ] people's hard work. I don't want to talk about "sockpuppets" anymore, I'm sick and tired of hearing about it. If You have someone better to say, fine. How about putting this all behind us and moving on with our wiki lives, okay? -- ] 12:54, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
:I don't think you do want to ruin other people's hard work. And you don't have to talk about sockpuppets. You said you don't want to talk to me anymore, and I'm just telling you that if you continue to create hoax articles (ie exicornt) and using sockpuppets (Lets Go Yankees, BestBuy25, etc) then you will no doubt continue bumping into us. I am willing to put all this behind us if you cease using sockpuppets to rig voting and cease creating hoax articles. If you agree to that, then I will agree to starting over with a clean slate. ] 13:03, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
::If You're willing to put "AfD" behind us, then yes. We can talk. I do have a question. Is it true You're only allowed one account on ]? From what You're telling Me, extra accounts aren't allowed. Is that true? -- ] 8:33 AM, November 28, 2005 (EST)
:::If you have a look at this page: ], you'll see that it is against the rules to use multiple accounts for the purpose of voting, deception or circumventing policy. The accounts can be permanently blocked if you use them to cast double votes. If you look further down that page, you'll see some instances where multiple accounts may, in very rare cases, have a legitimate use. However, it is extremely limited and is generally frowned on by the community. It's the sort of thing people will use against you if you decided you want to try at RfA again. As far as voting goes, it is certainly against policy to use multiple accounts to vote. ] 13:41, 28 November 2005 (UTC)

== My Request for Bureaucratship ==

Hi Sarah, I know you opposed my request for bureaucratship mainly because you agreed with ] that becoming a bureaucrat might detrimentally affect my contributions to articles. I just thought I'll explain why most of my recent contributions happen to be in the article namespace and why this isn't typically representative of what I do on the Wiki; almost half of my edits have been to the project or project talk namespace. (Much of the following paragraph is similar to what I explained to Rdsmith4 on his talk.)

Mainly, I've avoided janitorial duties in the past months because of my limited internet access (as I explained on the RfB), and I of course place a higher priority on improving and writing articles than janitorial duties. However, because I now have internet access at home, I have a lot more spare time to help out on Misplaced Pages, as evinced by my closing of AfD debates over the past few days. (Most of them were controversial because I focused on the backlog; all the easy ones had been taken by other admins already.) I already helped clear out some the "easy" debates ], and now I'm itching to find some other thing to do because I have *a lot* of free time on my hands. Going through the RFA talk archives, I noticed that Uninvited Company (another bureaucrat) said it takes about half an hour to close one RFA debate. Usually I spend two or three hours a day closing AFD debates (and I stop only because you can enjoy closing only so many debates in one day), which works out to four to six RFAs a day (whereas typically only one or two RFAs pass per day), without impacting my contributions to the article space at all. Maybe the need for new 'crats isn't that bad, but I'm sure Rdsmith4 and the other 'crats would appreciate the extra half an hour or two with a few extra ones helping out. Just some thoughts, and best regards. ] | ] 05:57, 1 December 2005 (UTC)

== Big Cleanup a success ==

Hey, Sarahe. I'm happy to say User ] (]) has helped Me in a big way. She helped clean up most of the "dirty sock" notes pointing to Me (including a deletion of ). While only a few linger, I think we've made huge progress and should have them all deleted by the end of the week.

'']: remove duplication of my comment. Why do you keep doing that?''<BR>
Probably happens when someone saves an edit when I'm in the middle of an edit on the same page. I'm alerted when ''I'' hit save, so I hit back on My browser, retrive My new edit, and paste it. For some reason it creates a duplicate comment. -- ] 04:57, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

Delta Goodrem: Remixed

Hi, I noticed that about 6 or 7 days ago you asked the author of this article to provide sources to verify it. Unfortunately, the author has not been forthcoming or even responded to any of the concerns about the article. I think it's time it was nominated for deletion as unverifiable. What do you think. Contact me on my user talk page. Thanks, Werdna648/C\ 01:04, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
