RfA

Kim Dent-Brown (talk · contribs) asked a question that I replied to which may answer your concerns about my RfA. It can be seen at Misplaced Pages talk:Requests for adminship/Wassupwestcoast. Cheers! Wassupwestcoast (talk) 00:09, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

Rough Couple of Days?

Hey Pedro, I know I haven't been around much lately (school will have that effect), but I've been keeping my finger on the pulse of a couple of RFAs in which a particular editor who makes comments and registers !votes on RFA that are generally not well-received. I've noticed that recently you seem to be going through a good deal of stress about it. Let me be the first to say, please don't let it get to you! I'm not in any way suggesting a violation of WP:COOL. I just wanted to let you know that the help you have given me in the past (see Misplaced Pages:Editor review/Bwowen) and the comments that you make on RFA are some of the most valuable and constructive of any editor. I value your opinion greatly and often give it great weight when when I do decide to !vote in an RFA (which is a rarity). I don't know if I've made any kind of discernible point here, but what I'm trying to say is the following: You're a great editor! I'm sorry that you have been (or seem to have been) stressed out by other people's potentially disruptive actions! Hang in there, you are an asset to the community! =] Best regards, bwowen talk•contribs 03:01, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

Glad to be of service. Keep up the good work! By the way, your son is amazing! He looks like a lot of fun! =] Take care, bwowen talk•contribs 01:44, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

Signature

Hey Pedro. I recently decided I should probably change my signature from the default and when I decided to do so, went about looking for those which I like best. I decided that yours was great and easily adaptable to my own tastes. As you can see, I have adapted a similar version. However, I figured I would check with you that you have no objections to it. Thanks for your time. Cheers. SorryGuy  Talk  03:41, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

i cannot log in from work because i don't carry my password with me. i never said i dont know how it works here. of course i will log in when i get home because you need a good reminder about biting and welcoming and what trolling actually is. your soapbox is even bigger from the other side. 64.147.0.70 (talk) 22:23, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

WP nickname please ? Pedro :  Chat  22:26, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

This time has come for us to discuss. Let's put aside who I am, and discuss fun. And the assumption of trolling. Then the Insisting on an account for sake of you not reverting. I'm inclined to keep this as anonymous because your demonstration on how you handle anons 'reeks' of someone who does not feel that anyone is free to edit. But please, tell me which edit deserved reversion, as you know as well as I do that altering talk page comments should be done with caution. It's comical to me how there is 'no cabal' yet innocent edits are worth censoring to you. Take a break, Peter. This really is going to get you nowhere. I would like it clearly stated to where my edits were worthy of reversion and how your inclination to decide that I knew my way around Misplaced Pages can or could be used as an excuse to out someone using an IP address, as registered users are still given the right to edit anonymously. You're bitey, and assuming good faith to you simply does not exist. If you don't recognize it, you kill it, then eat it, then go about your day. But try a checkuser instead, then you can rest, knowing that it's time for a break. Even anons can request for comment. And if I am one, as anons can and do learn policy from lurking, you deserve it. Perhaps you can request it for this event? Many logged in users commenting on the beauty of a woman, but my edits are immediately reverted, even with a disclosure. Nice work. 68.5.48.85 (talk) 09:12, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

RfA Thanks

Thank you for participating in my RfA, which was successful with a vote of 33/7/4.

I am honoured by the trust placed in me by the community. I hope to repay this by the wise use of the tools, which I intend to use gradually. Mop & bucket is on the Christmas list - honest. Keith D (talk) 00:32, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

Great success!

Dear Pedro, Thank you for your participation in my request for adminship, which ended successfully with a final tally of (52/10/1). I was impressed by the thoughtful comments on both sides, and the RFA process in general. The extra buttons do look pretty snazzy, but I'll be careful not to overuse them. If you have advice to share or need assistance with anything, feel free to drop me a message or email. Thank you and good day!
