The WikiProject on Psychedelics, Dissociatives and Deliriants is up, check it out if you are interested!
Mr. Mystery
I've just uploaded the book cover about Mr. Mystery. Thus, I can already prove evidence that it does exist. Check out the article for more details. If there's anything wrong, pls. reply on my talk page. --Bruin rrss23 05:45, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
P.S. The previous Mr. Mystery article that got deleted was stubbed.

Those are wonderful photographs. Thank you for contributing them.
What was the experience like? Do you have a journal or blog entry about it? How did you arrange to be involved with the cooking? Do you have any photos of the finished tea? — Clarknova 04:40, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
wikibooks:THINKSTARSHIP/Psychonautics
Hi there, I am pleased to hear of your new promotion.
I was having a major argument with myself over how to go about doing something, and so far, You are the person I've gotten to know and like around, So I thought I would ask your opinion on it.
The general idea has become (Since I didn't get a Wikicity, which would have made this enormously easier) To write a book whose title would be "How to generate an Doctorate level Interdisciplinary program on WikiBooks". This is actually something of a digression from what I really wanted to do do to get a lot of people in the area. I figured i'd start the WikiCity just post some StarShips, and I'd have people showing up to oooh and ahhh over the art. I can't go that route on Wikibooks for obvious reasons.
Instead, i'm forced to get things to the point of having sufficient content to attract more people. This is the main issue. I just got done counting my Subdepartments. Theres 345 of them. I'm not going to be able to single handedly do more than create them all as pages with links, references, Socratic Method, and Table of Contents. In other words, I'll end up with 345 pages each of Which is full of red links to doors for somebody else to open.
My (first) question is, should i just work on only the Main Departments? Is there a process one would go through to get help with simple basic but annoyingly boring and time consuming tasks like searching Misplaced Pages for its relevant articles? I'm sepnding most of my time nowadays just running the search engine for 5 minutes to find one link. If I could somehow talk 10 Wikifolks into helping me, it would really make a difference. There are a variety of related questions. I have considered folding my subdepartments back into the main departmens- merging. The problem with this is the whole point of the whole thing is to create the meta structure that shows how it would be done, and taking out the sub-departments both removes what would become an important feature, but invites chaos when somebody adds details. (Sort of the worst problem i normally encounter with Misplaced Pages. Navigating between articles and concepts.)
I'm trying to visualize a realistic growth process considering that this isn't a Wikicity. The more i look at it, the more depressing it becomes. Maybe you have some ideas on how to increase the rate of that process. I went and asked for a bot, for instance. Not anything for a reply. You'd think by now that they would have worked out a way for a bot to populate a new child network with the links that are relative to say for instance, a set of keywords. I have also been working a bit on yahoo groups, but honestly, I don't feel comfortable drawing people in yet from outside the organization, there isn't enough done yet. Should I just give up alltogether on filling out the references and leave that to some future wave of Wikipedians? The idea there was to avoid mirroring or redundancy by linking to whats allready been done. (as well as build the knowledge base as quickly aspossible to move on into the level of expert.)
Another part of me is just sort of screaming out; "Just go do the Psychonautics book!" This makes some sense because it would function as a template for what a finished THINKSTARSHIP first edition Departmental Text would look like. It also seems like a bad idea because it might feel like something of a bait and switch to some people. (I'm particularly concerned with other WikiBookians. The way people get welcomed in on these things could use some work. Posting a big fat graphic telling me I'm not up to snuff doesn't seem sensible or fair considering i just started, and the ketch 22 is, I tried to keep the book cloaked, but somebody wasn't down with that, and put up a big fat graphic asking me to place the book. I imagine with 101 people that are flybys for every 1 that is on it, they have their stress 2, and I suppose thus it all comes down to prooving myself.) I'm sure any author feels overwhelmed when they look at a table of contents, but this is another order of magnitude of overwhelmed; I wouldn't be able to finish this alone in my lifetime.
Anyways, thanks for your thoughts, time, and energy, Sincerely Prometheuspan Prometheuspan 02:55, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

Your RfA
I have added some questions to your RFA. If you have a minute, I'd appreciate if you took a look at them. Thanks. JoshuaZ 21:48, 31 March 2006 (UTC)
Sorry, one last questiony thing, 4a. JoshuaZ 04:46, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
Btw, I don't know if you've noticed but someone else has added another question. JoshuaZ 19:49, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
Hello
Hi, thanks for welcoming me and notifying me that I'd spelt my web address wrong (oops).
Could you weigh in on the infobox at Cannabis (drug)
I say it is inapropriate and inaccurate, Rory069 insists it should be there, and reverts my attempts to remove it. Discussion is here. Could you please weigh in. -SM 11:52, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

Congratulations! Consensus having been reached, it is my pleasure to inform you that you are now an administrator on the English Misplaced Pages. Please take a moment to review the Administrators' reading list and the Administrators' how-to guide before using any of your shiny new buttons. :-) If you need assistance or advice, please feel free to request help from other administrators at the Administrator's Noticeboard and Administrator's Noticeboard for Incidents, or to leave a talk page message for me or any other admin. Again, congratulations! Essjay 21:26, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
- Congraulations on your new mop and bucket! :) - Cheers, Mailer Diablo 02:33, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
Congrats! You deserved. it. (^'-')^ Covington 07:08, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
Congratulations! I have no doubt that you will make a very good admin. Cheers TigerShark 12:44, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
Congrats! You deserve this and good luck for the future! --Siva1979 14:50, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

Template:User Same Sex Marriage
Your use of the rollback against another administrator was grossly inappropriate. I recognize that this is your first day on the job, as it were, but that's little excuse given the very public debates over this matter. TfD is not and has never been the proper location for a speedy candidate any more than AfD (and VfD before it) were the proper locations for article speedy candidates. Please consider your actions more carefully in the future. Best, Mackensen (talk) 20:52, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
- That's fair. I've no problem with it being listed at WP:DRV, if someone really wants to. To me, it was an obvious case of T1, especially given the opposite version (which was speedied at the same time). Mackensen (talk) 22:25, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
