Happy New Year, Anthony.bradbury

Wishing you the best for 2008! Acalamari 22:12, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

Also, thanks again for the nomination earlier this year. I've almost been an admin for six months now; I hope I have lived up to your expectations. :) Acalamari 22:12, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the kind words. Acalamari 17:44, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks re User:Nicollegardner93

Thanks for leaping in and helping out with that user. -- Roleplayer (talk) 20:21, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

Reply on Username.

Hello Anthony. bradbury. This is WikiSandbox1 and I am replying on behaf of myself.

I would just like to be aware that the username I chose was something for me to remember. Though I would ask you not to worry about it because other people get envoved and then it becomes a big hassal.

When I created this account it was hard to find a username because all the ideas had were already taken. So the only thing I remembered was the sandbox (previous experiences)

Can I ask you something? How did you that I was indending to be a serious contributer to Misplaced Pages.

I would like to ask you something, if you are writing a complaint, could you please write you complaint in the complaint section of my talk page. I know its annoying but it just keeps everything neat. I would appericiate that.

Dont worry, because I could predict that someone else will remide me.

Armenian Forgeries

Thanks for the note on the Armenian Forgeries article. I'm still figuring out how to apply the speedy deletion criteria. I have watchlisted the page, so I'll make sure it goes to AfD if the prod tag is removed. Karanacs (talk) 21:25, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

I knew you weren't criticizing (sorry to imply the opposite); I do appreciate your following up with me on the article. Karanacs (talk) 21:35, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages:Editing Under the Influence

Hello AB. I was perusing WP:KEEPCOOL as I sometimes do, and noticed that the above-noted essay had become a redlink. I am wondering if you might be willing to list it at MfD rather than deleting it just yet? I am not expressing an opinion about whether it should be deleted, as I have only a vague recollection of it, having last looked at it many months ago. Also, I am not sure if some of it might be mergeable into WP:KEEPCOOL#Drink minimal amounts of alcohol. Thanks. Cheers, --Paul Erik 17:02, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

Okay, thanks for that. Now that I can read it, I can see why you and the anon who nominated it for speedy-delete thought it was unfunny, and there is nothing mergeable into another article if the consensus is that it be deleted. I don't think that CSD G1 is applicable here, however. --Paul Erik 18:55, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
I know that I am giving you a bit of a hard time about this, and even I as do so I keep in mind my appreciation for all the work you put in here. You have helped me out on at least one occasion in the past. The fate of the essay is no big deal to me, but I would like to clarify something about your use of CSD G1. I have seen other admins use it to delete something that they find unimpressive, or to delete something when they are unsure which CSD criterion to use. So I thought I would at least begin by speaking to individual admins when I see it happening (when pages get speedied when they could use some wider community discussion). I don't think that this is, as you suggest, a matter of my definition of "nonsense" being different from yours. CSD G1 applies only to "patent nonsense" as described in Misplaced Pages:Patent nonsense. That guideline specifically says that "incompetent and/or immature material" does not fall under the definition. Thanks again for your dedication to Misplaced Pages, --Paul Erik 22:21, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

User_talk:Jimbo_Wales#RED_ALERT

Hi Anthony,

where do you suggest the discussion that developed be discussed further, now that you archived the page? Martintg (talk) 22:56, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

Ah yes, I should have checked the talk page history first, the edit history comment of the archiver also suggested WP:VP as the appropriate place for continuing the discussion. I assumed your comment regarding "don't feed the trolls" was by the archiver as it was the last, being the way it is usually done in the area I contribute in. Martintg (talk) 22:26, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

Del

I thought well I read an article that said write about yourself or your company I started that an before i was finish the page was deleted? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Itpeligo (talkcontribs) 23:56, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

Replying to you (sorry for the late reply )

I am so sorry for the late reply, I have been busy in real life that I havent had a chance to reply. I do hope you are not angry with me for this

I'm sorry for the critisisam comment that I made, I thought you were trying to force me to change my mind . But I appreciate you giving me the option to do what I want.

If you are really busy in real life, you do a good job with replying to comments.

Where did you find out all the edits I have made? Because I found I really strange that you said it was obvious.e Anyway, what I am doing currently is nearly finished.

Oh and Happy Wikiing to you as well, what are you editing?

If possible reply and the new Apple Mac Book Air came out

Seeya!!!

PS: For me its not easy for me to think of other names

Hey

Hello, now, I don't have much time to type. As you'll know by the username(and the message here) I'm your old adoptee. I'm very busy until about the 19th. I'll make my userpage now, and I'm now asking you to, if possible, copy/paste the old page to my current one. and quick!Kfc18645 talk 11:03, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for a quick one.Kfc18645 talk 11:34, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
I'll try redirecting-as many quys would still search for Kfc1864.Kfc18645 talk 11:36, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Why so harsh?

Recently, you indef. blocked User talk:GM WINS, AND THAT'S FINAL . What is GM? Car company? Is this a person interested in cars and who read that GM may now be only the 2nd largest in the world in terms of production?

Account creation was also blocked so this person can't fix the mistake by creating a new name. It's not like the GM account was used for vandalism or the name contained profanity (for example User:GM is the same as admin -- Both are bloody idiots)

Since unblocking account creation doesn't seem too drastic, I've done that. Archtransit (talk) 18:32, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

Proposed deletion for The Other Nite Show

Hi, I'd like to request you delete The Other Nite Show. It is a non notable community radio show from a minor AM station (and therfore not notable, if you don't delete it any other Australian community radio show could put up a page. Cheers, Ryan. 122.148.64.45 (talk) 12:58, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

My Rfa

I wish to thank you for being supportive of my effort to regain my adminship. Though it was not successful, your support was still very much appreciated. Let me know if there is anything I can do for you. Thank you!--MONGO 18:05, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

Re: Welcome

You are unaware of how I appreciate comments such as that. It is nice to return my regards to you, and your extension of good faith helped me through the time at the noticeboard. I very much look forward to working with you in the future, and as the last email we had was regarding blocks, if you ever need to tell me something that I have done incorrectly, don't hesitate to ask why it may have been done et cetera. on my talk page or via other means. Kindest regards, Rudget. 14:21, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

thank you



My RfA
Thank you very much for your support in my RfA which I really appreciate. It closed at 83/0/0. I was surprised by the unanimity and will do my best to live up to the new role. All the best, --ROGER DAVIES  16:49, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

Winterfold House School

Hello. You deleted Winterfold House School, under A7. However, hasn't there been a discussion that school's cannot be deleted under A7? - Milk's Favorite Cookie 23:32, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

No, the article should definitely stay deleted. But just a notice, that after a long discussion, schools are not to be deleted undert A7. But, no the article should not be restored. Thanks! - Milk's Favorite Cookie 19:52, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

An admin's perspective?

Greetings, A.b. Having just given new user 68DANNY2 some lengthy advice on the subject of attaining adminship, I spotted your comments to him on the topic. I've been editing since late 2005, and have never yet seriously looked into becoming an admin. If you've a moment, might you take a look at my history and share your thoughts regarding my suitability as an admin candidate? My track record isn't spotless; I have been involved in some talk-page quibbles and once received a short block when I got carried away and violated 3RR, though I have tried (and, I think, largely succeeded) to stay within bounds. Nevertheless, I probably have areas that need improvement — perhaps there aren't enough of certain kinds of edits in my history, or maybe there are some Wiki protocols I'm not yet properly adhering to, or things of that nature. I'm not necessarily gunning for adminship, but I'd like to have an admin's perspective. If you haven't got the time, that's OK too. Please and thank you. —Scheinwerfermann (talk) 22:24, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

Much obliged! —Scheinwerfermann (talk) 16:11, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
Thank you kindly for your assessment. I'll look into working in the directions you suggest. —Scheinwerfermann (talk) 19:44, 12 February 2008 (UTC)


This Scheinwerfermann has been wikistalking me from article to article, contributing little but disorder, questionable 'facts' and disruption. I can't believe you're considering him for some kind of administration status. He deletes, twists, and turns into gibberish, portions of articles for no apparent reason that I can see, until now, other than to rack up 'edits'. I didn't realize there were benefits to padding your edit counts. Maybe I should try that. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.107.58.130 (talk) 23:04, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Proxy?

Hi, Anthony. When do we use proxies? If I knew, i've forgotten. Cheers, Dlohcierekim Deleted? 16:23, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for your note. I did not think there was such a thing. I'm afraid the closer I look, the less confidence I feel in the nominees readiness. <<sigh>> Dlohcierekim Deleted? 16:32, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

James McKeown

Hi. The article James McKeown, which you deleted in August, should be restored as he has now made an appearance in a fully professional league, and so passing WP:BIO. Thanks, Mattythewhite (talk) 00:17, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

Welcome messages

Hello Anthony, I wish to apologise for my reply to your message on the 5th, my mass welcoming of new users was inappropriate and somewhat pointless. I have lately been applying myself to patrolling the User Creation Log and reporting any username violations, reverting vandalism from new users and only welcoming those new users who have made at leat one positive contribution. I would be glad of some feedback from yourself about my contributions, are they useful do you think?

Thank you for your consideration, Polly (Parrot) 19:31, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
