Thank You!

Thank you for your input at my RFA, which successfully closed at 58/2/0. I will think about the 10 questions and answers I had, and I hope that I will use the tools constructively and for the benefit of Misplaced Pages. If you ever need any help, don't be afraid to drop me a line. I'm here to help afterall! ‎Template:Emot -Royalguard11(Talk·Desk·Review Me!) 23:43, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

Re: Петър Петров

Hello! Just to let you know that I have asked this user to select a Latin-based username and go to WP:CHU to request that a Bureaucrat perform the change. They are not currently blocked. Regards, (aeropagitica) 00:49, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

David Ruben RfA

John254/Archive 6, thank you for your support in my RfA which passed on 13th December 2006 with a tally of 49/10/5. I am delighted by the result and a little daunted by the scope of the additional tools; I shall be cautious in my use of them. I am well aware that becoming an Admin is not just about a successful nomination, but a continuing process of gaining further experience; for this I shall welcome your feedback. Again, many thanks for supporting my RfA. :-) David Ruben 01:44, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

University of Phoenix

Yeah, that did occur to me at the time. I should probably have looked more cloesly at the situation though, I agree. I'll happily unprotect now anyway, and I'll be more than happy to semi-protect if that becoems necesssary, and deal with any furhter abuses. --Robdurbar 11:32, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

GIR (Invader Zim)

Editor (24.94.87.252) of GIR fame just signed off. Thanks for removing the mistaken warnings. Just wanted to ask you,does this happen a lot? Or am I the only one here looking like the villain?

user:ryanpostlethwaite

Many thanks for spotting and reverting the vandilism to my user page and adding the subsequent warning to the IP that did it. It is very much appreciated, you can't be on wikipedia all the time and spot everything! Merry Christmas and thanks again RyanPostlethwaite 12:29, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

Agathoclea's RfA

Hello, and thank you for the support on my recent RfA. The final tally was 63/3/2, and I have now been entrusted with the mop. I hope I can live up to your trust, and certainly welcome any and all feedback. All the best, and thanks again! — Agathoclea 13:48, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

My Request for Adminship

Thanks for your support on my successful Request for Adminship (final result 78 Support /0 Oppose / 1 Neutral) I have now been entrusted with the mop, bucket and keys. I will be slowly acclimating myself to my new tools over the next months. I am humbled by your kind support and would certainly welcome any feedback on my actions. Please do not hesitate to contact me. Once again, many thanks and happy new year! All the best, Asterion 16:14, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for your support

Thank you for your support in the RfA on my behalf. It is an honor to have received your expression of confidence. To be chosen as an administrator requires a high level of confidence by a broad section of the community. Although I received a great deal of support, at this time I do not hold the level of confidence required, and the RfA did not pass. It is my wish that I will continue to deserve your confidence. Sincerely, --BostonMA 19:20, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Your feedback on my RfA

Hi John254. I very much appreciate your feedback on my RfA and I appreciate your concerns regarding knowledge of policies and ability to apply them accurately. Since your comments a number of admins have weighed in about their experiences interacting with me, and I explained both that multiple people had made a mistake about the timing involved in the 3RR issue you cited and that a block had never been intended in this situation. Perhaps you might have time to consider this additional information at my rfa. I appreciate your time and value your feedback. Thanks, --Shirahadasha 07:56, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

PAIN

Sorry. I've reverted your closure. 1) 26 hours is far too premature for this important debate. 2) If you want to WP:SNOW this, the clear consensus at the moment is for a straight delete, I don't know where you get "the comments favoring deletion do not assert the desirability of removing comments made on this page from users' edit histories; consequently, there is no support for actual deletion". Most people are saying 'delete' that's pretty clear.--Doc 20:35, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

And you're not an admin anyway, so you aren't supposed to close controversial XfDs. -Amarkov _edits 20:37, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

Deletion of Personal Attack Intervention Noticeboard

Hi John254. Would you please take the time to explain your deletion of the the Personal Attack Intervention Noticeboard here ? Thanks!JdeJ 21:08, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

My Userpage

Many thanks for reverting the vandilism by user:164.107.222.254 on my user page and getting the subsequent block. Its happening nearly daily now!!! Your an absolute star, thanks again, it was very much appreciated RyanPostlethwaite 21:49, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

Ideation

Yes, it's a notable term, but that's what dictionaries are for. When I tried to find something to support it's notability I went to the psych wiki - nothing there except for "suicidal ideation" used in a single article there. Thoughts? --Ronz 00:18, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Radiant!

I am not sure if you saw, but on WP:3RR several administrators acknowledged Radiant! broke WP:3RR, and then decided to take no action on the ground that he is an experienced editor. If you look at the discussion you will see this is mostly because of SlimVirgin. KazakhPol 04:44, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Need to re-block 67.142.130.26

Once again this idiot is vandalizing away. I'll revert his latest on National Association of Realtors; whoops, too late someone already did. Thanks. Vivaverdi 00:43, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

My Request for Adminship

Thank you for your support in my my RfA, which passed with a tally of 117/0/1. I hope that my conduct as an admin lives up to the somewhat flattering confidence the community has shown in me. Please don't hesitate to leave a message on my talk page should you need anything or want to discuss something with me.--Nilfanion (talk) 22:50, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

Warnings

I noticed you used the {{test4im}} template here, when it can easily be assumed that the user's edits were made in good faith. Although it is not strict policy to start with mild warnings, in this case I think a milder warning, or better yet an explanation of Misplaced Pages practice, would have been more appropriate. Please try to take care not to bite inexperienced users when it is not clear they are acting in bad faith. --Ginkgo100 06:01, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
