ThanksThanks for the sobering but no doubt accurate words of wisdom regarding adminship. Hope you feel better soon. MastCell 15:29, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
Thank youKC, thank you for your kind support of my RfA, which successfully closed yesterday. Whatever your health issues are, I hope that they resolve themselves quickly and well. Please feel free to drop my a note any time if there is anything I can do for you. Pastordavid 15:40, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
Edit warring on MacGuffinRecently, there's been a bit of an edit war on the MacGuffin article. Noticing your kind words on my userpage, I decided to ask you to keep an eye on it, and protect it if necessary. As a party to the discussion, I thought it unwise to do so myself. --Eyrian 19:29, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
RetiringKillerChihuahua, I am writing to let you know i am closing this account, shortly after writing this message. I meant to write sooner but it kept slipping my mind. The adoption process went great, i ended up adopting two users, who were both great. Thanks for adopting me also. Hope you get better soon. All the best and goodbye, Urbane User (Talk) (Contributions) 17:18, 15 May 2007 (UTC) P.S. If you wish to contact me you can do so through User:ThirtyNineHundred. Mediation for RaceHello KillerChihuahua, There is an unassigned case for mediation at Misplaced Pages:Requests for mediation/Race. I was wondering whether you would consider taking it on. I do not believe the case is very complicated so hopefully it wouldn't take up too much of your time. Regards Muntuwandi 03:00, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
Race and intelligenceHeya Puppy, thanks for all your work at RfM! I'm amazed to see you still have a case moving, even after five months (the Kriss Donald one). I was just dropping in to ask, can I close out Misplaced Pages:Requests for mediation/Race and intelligence and remove it from the list of current tasks, as inactive? A number of suggestions back in March were that it was becoming stalled, and after your last message it appears that no-one has given any further input, and half of the participants are 'inactive'. This was just a courtesy note, to make sure that there's nothing being done 'privately' to make this still active. If it can be closed due to inactivity, just pop me a line and I'll do it - my desire to clean out Misplaced Pages:Requests for mediation/Open Tasks is ever-raging :) Cheers, Daniel 06:50, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
User:HarlequinnThis editor doesn't just not-understand policies, he actively denies that we can have any policies. I don't see how it's possible to have a meaningful dialogue in this situation. Can you see anything short of blocking that might get the point across? Doc Tropics 02:46, 21 May 2007 (UTC) PS - good to see you again : )
Don't worry KC. A direct transcript of your comments with my reply is on my talk page for anyone to see. I notice you didn't admit your mistake. Why not? If you think you didn't make any mistake then you are suffering from a delusion. As I wrote, your actions which constitute administrative abuse have been duly noted and are of course publicly available in history. This is not a simple accusation of admin abuse - it is documented admin abuse. There is a big difference. You should be more careful. Harley 01:03, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
RequestWould you mind having a look at Talk:Miscarriage? There is an editor there who keeps changing a long-standing wording in the article, and, when asked to clarify why he feels this change is warranted, his explanation was, essentially, "I think it should be that way, and that's that." I do not think this is a reasonable basis from which to make editorial judgments. If you have the time, a third opinion might be helpful. Thanks! -Severa (!!!) 11:30, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
Serious QuestionI noticed that you did this revert because of WP:EL. I looked at the link, and it seemed like an odd religious site, but they were trying to build an ark. I read over the EL rules, and this seemed right on the edge. Because you won't feed me steak, I now need to just ask for your reasoning with all good faith. Orangemarlin 20:09, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
Your healthI won't pry, but you did voluntarily post that you were ill some time ago, and I see there's still a notice at the top of your talk page. I've often wondered how you're doing. I very much hope that whatever it is has been sorted out — you've been one of the kindest admins I've met. I'll send you an email soon. No need to reply to this (or to my email). Take care. ElinorD (talk) 20:49, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
Health updateAs so many have asked about my health, in email and on this page, and been so kind as to offer kind thoughts and prayers for my health, I feel obligated to post an update. For those for whom this is Too Much Personal Information, please just ignore this.
TemplatesHello, are you refering to the {{essay}} template. Did you see my edit summary on one of them? I know I was making a lot of edits there but the syntax was coming out wrong and I was saving it then testing it at the sandbox without saving there, I would have used the show preview button but that did not work with the syntax I was doing so I had to keep saving, apologies for any inconvenince caused by I wouldn't say I was causing harm to the, I'd say I was testing them out to improve them. Thank for pointing it out. Kindest Regards — The Sunshine Man(a.k.a Tellyaddict) 14:59, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

ThanksHey, thanks for the great message you left re: my recent RfA. It was much appreciated, and I'll be sure to take you up on the offer. I also have to say I got a chuckle out of your user name. About a week ago, my 15 year old daughter, who's great around big animals like horses, came across a chihuahua on a sidewalk, got frightened, screamed and ran...yup, scared of a little dog...she laughed later, and then got a chuckle when I told her about your username. Made the evening just a tad brighter. AKRadecki 00:22, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
HelloCyclePat reverted all the redirets I did on the AMA to close it down. I have restored them however I donot wish to do so again if they are reverted again (I don't use to be in an edit war wth anyone). Is there anyway to have them protected? Æon 01:54, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
Possible article?Is there any rule that forbids this from becoming a regular article/list?: The title can be changed if necessary. Other encyclopedias have such galleries as a resource. Please reply on my talk page. -- Fyslee/talk 07:03, 25 May 2007 (UTC) Our dear KatefanYes, it's incredible how present she is still, even after a whole year has passed already... :( I know for a fact she's well and enjoying her life, and we all should be happy for her... but still, like you, Puppy, I miss her like she had left yesterday...
Vandalism vs. misguided editingRegarding the recent activity at God and User talk:Rip Van Snorlax, I saw your personal note to the editor and the um,...pointed Edit Summary that accompanied it. After some brief consideration, I think I understand your position. It probably wasn't appropriate for me to use the term "vandalsim" in my Edit Summaries, was it? Assuming good faith means I should have treated the edits as well-intentioned but misguided, and tried to provide more constructive comments than just the boilerplate warnings. I also noticed that despite your optimistic handling of Rip, you didn't hesitate to block when it became obviously necessary (at 7RR...LOL). So consider this a "thank you" note KC, from me, since you probably won't get one from Rip. Though you never addressed me directly, I was able to learn from the example that you set, and I hope I'll handle this type of situation properly in the future. I'm glad to see that health issues have diminished neither your bark nor your bite : ) Doc Tropics 14:11, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
dawkinsfirstly its not just the book the 'god delusion' he has written numerous articles about this and - its his contention religion is the cause of geopotlicical conflict. Therefore I find your edit capricious - Mywikieditor2007 20:18, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
For beingEven though you're a puppy, you're still a cool cat here and we appreciate it. Thanks! -- Samir 06:33, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
I like the soapboxVery nice. I think I'll be reading it often. --Ronz 15:09, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
example of your biasyou removed the criticism/controversy section for dawkins, yet:there is controversy section for M. Behe an 'intelligent design' advocate: http://en.wikipedia.org/Michael_Behe KillerChihuahua, a administrator claiming that this section needs NO controversy section - made extensive edits there yet NEVER removed there. Why the double standard KillerChihuahua? Mywikieditor2007 17:19, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
Actually, that isn't the reason. The reason is:
Surprised? Its clear you think I do, or at least I have total control over these two articles! Strange to say, others here have a say in how articles are written. We like to call it consensus. The editors on the Dawkins article have decided to integrate criticism into the article body, adding criticism of Dawkins views on religion in the religion section, for example. This has been discussed repeatedly on talk, and the consensus has been to not have a separate criticism section. I don't watch the Behe article as closely - it gets a lot less vandalism, probably because Behe is far less well known - so I cannot say whether the subject has ever come up to integrate the criticism as is done in Dawkins. If it does, I would support that. The last time I edited the Behe article was on July 18, 2006, when I added three references. KillerChihuahua 18:18, 26 May 2007 (UTC) gould, controversy's section: http://en.wikipedia.org/Stephen_J._Gould#Controversies george bush controversy section: http://en.wikipedia.org/George_W._Bush#Criticism_and_public_perception YOU under the guise of 'administrator' and alleged impartiality are defending Dawkins and letting his 'cheerleaders' protect his page rather than have a controversy section which is quite common among bios. you specifically chose to remove the section from dawkins the alleged 'consensus' is just a small clique of pro dawkins editors who tell numerous people who object to the removal of the controversy section that 'hey we've come to a consensus'. Mywikieditor2007 18:29, 26 May 2007 (UTC) you also capriciously removed criticism of Gandhi which was referenced. Mywikieditor2007 18:30, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
Mywikieditor2007, I think you need to take a step back and try to assume good faith on KC's part. I think her edits at Richard Dawkins have less to do with "bias," and more to do with upholding consensus, especially since she is not the only editor who has objected to the addition of a "Criticism" section in that article. I have not been involved in writing the Dawkins article, but I have watched it, and a "Criticism" section has been proposed a number of times before on the Talk page. If you wish to see a "Criticism" section, or something like it, added to the Dawkins article, I think that it would be more effective for you to propose this idea on the article's Talk page and work with other editors to create a section that will address everyone's concerns. I don't think this is going to be achieved by singling out one editor out of the many who has objected to or reverted the addition of "Criticism" sections at Richard Dawkins in the past. -Severa (!!!) 19:23, 26 May 2007 (UTC) Thank you!...for the congrats. Please take care and get well quickly :) I wish you all the best. PeaceNT 18:00, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
Please Assume Good FaithKillerChihuahua, thank you for your suggestion at my talk page. When I revert vandalism, I am now attempting to leave messages at the vandals' talk pages, as you suggested. As you know, it is less time-consuming to merely revert the vandalism without choosing, formatting, and posting a message at the vandals' talk pages, but I will try to do so as you suggested. I hope you do not think that there was anything disruptive about reverting vandalism without leaving messages for the vandals; disruption was not my intention, and I will assume that you assume good faith. However, you recently accused me of being "disruptive," when you reverted this edit. I take that to be an accusation of bad faith, and I ask you to please assume good faith. Your edit summary stated: "Reverting disruptive edit. You do not have consensus, and indeed have considerable opposition for this OR edit." You did not write anything at the discussion page, even though my edit summary said, "Rewriting section on abortion. Please see discussion page." I had explained in detail at the discussion page why I made the edit that I did, and yet you simply reverted the edit without any response at the talk page. Misplaced Pages has a policy that editors should explain their reverts, and I hardly think your edit summary was sufficient. As I explained at the talk page prior to your revert, you are the one who suggested the language of my edit (i.e. that opposing reduction in abortion time limits might be a pro-choice position). I also explained at the talk page that Severa had not "explained anywhere why she thinks that ... opposing reduction of abortion time limits ... is not a pro-choice position." Thus, your edit summary was premature, to say the least, as neither you nor Severa had yet addressed the content of my edit. Thank you in advance for thinking this over.Ferrylodge 15:21, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
(outdent) As you'd also placed that in another article, twice, and moved to the RCOG article after other editors protested, where you added virtually the same contested assertion not once but three times - why yes, its edit warring. Five times doesn't equal once, even when you bold it and italicise it and place in all caps. KillerChihuahua 01:07, 28 May 2007 (UTC) |
