My RFA (Random832)

Folks at 137/pauk

Thanks for your query. The article is an effort - clearly half-baked - to set up a draft article in my own workspace. I'm slightly bemused by the comment "it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader", since it's based on an existing article! How do I do what I wish to do, but correctly?

Done what you suggested moved to User:Folks at 137/pauk. Will someone remove the delete tag? Thanks for your prompt advice, have a pint on me! Folks at 137 (talk) 22:36, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

RfA

Ah..why did you remove Goodshoped's RfA? It doesn't look like he's withdrawn or anything... GlassCobra 07:11, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

I see, you were removing Ceres'. My fault for jumping to conclusions. GlassCobra 07:13, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

ArbCom questions

Hi. I'm Ral315, editor of the Misplaced Pages Signpost. We're interviewing all ArbCom candidates for an article next week, and your response is requested.

1. What positions do you hold (adminship, arbitration, mediation, etc.)?

2. Why are you running for the Arbitration Committee?

3. Have you been involved in any arbitration cases? In what capacity?

4. In the past year, are there any cases that you think the Arbitration Committee handled exceptionally well? Any you think they handled poorly?

5. Why do you think users should vote for you?

Please respond on my talk page. We'll probably go to press late Monday or early Tuesday (UTC), but late responses will be added as they're submitted. Thanks, Ral315 » 04:47, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

Aster (cable)

I just noticed this page, Aster (cable), and your recommendation on the talk page to seek deletion. Was there any kind of resolution, or did it just fall through the cracks? Newtman (talk) 10:34, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

deleted. John Reaves 10:36, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

Thanks Newtman (talk) 10:38, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

BTW, I've proposed deletion on a similar article: Communications in Santo Domingo. Newtman (talk) 11:04, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

RE: 4

You're right. I am watching a number of candidates, and your comment, personal attack or not, was just not appropriate, especially coming from an Administrator. Now, I am inclined to believe it was a personal attack. as you automatically assumed that I wasn't assuming good faith, which was an error on your part. Tagging that comment as being from an SPA was an accurate move on my part, as that account (the IP itself) had only one edit. I did not say that the account was a sockpuppet, so I don't see why you would think I was not assuming good faith, when all I did was note the SPA comment, which happens all of the time on various debates. ArbCom members need a higher level of "professionalism" (for lack of a better word), and need to positively demonstrate their knowledge of critical policies such as AGF, NPA, and Civility, which is something that IMO, you have failed to do.

That was not a generic statement, as you claim. You say you wish I was a checkuser..... because not assuming good faith makes you look like a jackass. That seems pretty direct to me. - Rjd0060 (talk) 16:56, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
