+Patroller
[edit source]- Has been doing prolific and reliable categorization work & is interested in doing WB:NPP. Any help with such maintenance is welcome in my view. — Mike.lifeguard | talk 10:26, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
- Comment While I can appreciate Dallas1278's enthusiasm and desire to help, I think Dallas1278 has gone a little overboard in categorizing everything alphabetically. By doing that he's made WB:ABC an unreliable listing of book titles, and in turn made the random book link unreliable as well. Not every page on Wikibooks needs to be alphabetized. --darklama 11:17, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
- Comment We are currently in need of another patroller, and I looked back through dallas' contribs and they appear to be fine. Lets see if dallas accepts. Red4tribe (talk) 14:05, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
- Comment Many of the alphabetized pages are not book titles. For instance, ETD Guide which does not follow the naming convention, had every chapter added to WB:ABC. I don't think this disqualifies Dallas1278 as a patroller, but we really need to wait on voting until he formally accepts. --Jomegat (talk) 14:34, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

I'd like to accept the position - also, if I need to change some of the tags I added please tell me what I need to do. Thanks - Dallas1278 contribs) .
- You need to sign in and then add you r signature to your acceptance. Otherwise, how do we know it's really you? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Jomegat (talk • contribs) .
- Support He's a big helper, and has done a lot of good work so far. There have been mistakes, but that's more indicative of our steep learning curve. He is able and willing, and if he wants to patrol new pages we should definitely let him. --Whiteknight (Page) (Talk) 17:58, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
- Support per my initial nomination. I should point out that (as in the past, and with other users) I'm very happy to help new patrollers along, and I have no doubt Dallas will ask for help if needed. Up to this point, he's made good moves towards proper categorization, though with a few errors. That's hardly surprising, and his reaction to criticism is exactly what we should like to see. — Mike.lifeguard | talk 19:40, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
- Support We are in need of another patroller and I am happy with dallas' contributions. Red4tribe (talk) 23:48, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
