Notification of mention in a discussion

Greetings Acather96 I just wanted to let you know that I referenced your RFA in a discussion posting I just started at A perfect example of the RFA problem. I just wanted to let you know that although I opposed your RFA and I used you as an example I have absolutely no grudge with you and I think you appear to be a good editor. I wanted to let you know it wasn't anything personal towards you, just the situation that seems to apply. If it makes you feel any better a lot of folks will likely support your RFA on the sole basis I opposed it. Good luck on the RFA all the same. Happy Christmas and holidays. Kumioko (talk) 22:56, 25 December 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know Kumioko, I appreciate that. Whilst I disagree with some of the assertions you make about me, as there not actually on the RFA page, I'll wait till my RFA closes before responding - I think any discussion of my suitability for adminship should be kept to the RFA page, I don't want discussions to spiral out onto other pages. I do support a reform of RFA and I understand this in an area you have been working in/advocating for for a while now, so I see why you feel the neeed to 'call out' perceived unfairness. Thanks and Merry Christmas to you too! :) Acather96 (click here to contact me) 09:00, 26 December 2013 (UTC)
No problem it looks like your RFA is going to be a landslide pass anyway. I'm planning on leaving the project after this month so its not going to affect me one way or the other. I have found a lot of projects who want and need help over at Wikia so I am going to edit there where my help is wanted frankly. Besides, I don't really think anyone seriously wants to reform RFA besides me anyway. They say they do but then they scuttle any attempts to do so. Since I am a non admin no one takes my desire for reform seriously, they just view it like I am just upset about not getting access to the tools myself so there is little point in continuing. Anyway good luck. Kumioko (talk) 16:36, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for December 27

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

The Signpost: 25 December 2013

Congratulations

I've closed your RfA as successful. Good luck with your new tools. Maxim(talk) 22:25, 28 December 2013 (UTC)

Cheers Maxim - I'll get to work. :) Acather96 (click here to contact me) 22:26, 28 December 2013 (UTC)
Well done  Ronhjones  22:33, 28 December 2013 (UTC)
Thank-you both - do any of you know a good XfD script or explain what I'm doing wrong? I just installed one to my vector.js but can't seem to get it to work! :) Acather96 (click here to contact me) 22:40, 28 December 2013 (UTC) - no worries, I fixed it! :) Acather96 (click here to contact me) 22:42, 28 December 2013 (UTC)
When in doubt look at other's js files! Works for me. Also of use is...
//Highlight Admins
importScript('User:Amalthea/userhighlighter.js');
And don't forget to have a play without worries at New Admin School - P.S. Nice to have another UK admin :-)  Ronhjones 
Almost forgot - this (Misplaced Pages:What you won't learn in new admin school) is more true than you will ever believe at present...  Ronhjones  22:52, 28 December 2013 (UTC)

Cheers Ron - nice to know I've got some regional support around here to call on! Acather96 (click here to contact me) 22:56, 28 December 2013 (UTC)

Question

Hi, thank you. If the user returns to commit vandalism edits, where I report?

«Jaam0121 (talk) 23:21, 28 December 2013 (UTC)»

@Jaam0121: - If the edits actually are vandalism, and be sure to check they are, report them to WP:AIV after first warning them about their behaviour. Thanks, Acather96 (click here to contact me) 06:59, 29 December 2013 (UTC)

Hi
