Am I allowed to use my user page to store a few links that I want to use to expand on an article I'm working on? I'm going to go to bed soon and I will probably carry on editing but from another computer tomorrow and it would be easier if I could just store them someplace gettable at online, but I don't want to be seen as a spammer or advertiser or anything.

== Californication ==

Why do you only make edits to this RHCP album, how about instead changing everything to how you see fit, you change it to help it match the content in all of the other RHCP album pages.

And what is your reason for deleting all of the individual song pages? Couldn't you have talked about in the talk page first before talking apon yourself to do that. All of those pages were in their first stages still, they weren't perfect, they weren't done, unless you give me a good reason I'm going to revert all of them. <small>—The preceding [[Wikipedia:Sign your posts on talk pages|unsigned]] comment was added by [[User:MiTfan3|MiTfan3]] ([[User talk:MiTfan3|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/MiTfan3|contribs]]) 14:47, 30 April 2007 (UTC).</small><!-- HagermanBot Auto-Unsigned -->

RE: Bad album articles

Personally, I don't think the other articles are bad, and that's not what I was getting at. What I was getting at is why don't you make them all match instead of putting certain information on one page that could be put on the other 8? -MiTfan3

personal notes

And I'm not trying to get personal about this, so don't be so hostile about it.

And when you sign on talk pages, dont put the space in your name, it redirects to a blank page.

== Right on Time and Savior ==

First off, it wasn't me who reverted the Savior page, so don't accuse me of that. But it was me who reverted the Right on Time page because there is sufficient enough information mentioned on that page, not mentioned on the [[Californication (album)]] page, to leave it alone. And don't say I've ignored your comments about policy, I left all of the other pages redirected except for Right on Time, like I said, I didn't revert Savior. - MiTfan3

== Re: :/ ==

In reply to [[User talk:PEJL#:/|this message]]:
:Yes, it is a duplicate. The link to the [[All Music Guide]] entry for the ''[[Californication (album)|Californication]]'' album already exists in the professional reviews section of the infobox. Note that a majority of all album articles contain a link to All Music Guide in the professional reviews section, but almost no album articles contain one in the external links section. I think that is very reasonable in general, and see no reason for it to be different for this album. --[[User:PEJL|PEJL]] 21:37, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

{{unblock reviewed|1=An ArbCom ruling from eight months ago is not policy. The ruling was made with regards to Encyclopedia Dramatica, and in no way could they have predicted what would happen in the Essjay controversy. This is a completely different issue and situation, as the link is informative and a reader of the article would in most instances be likely to be interested in it. Really, I can't believe we're letting personal grudges get in the way of our encyclopedic integrity and stop us from following our mission statement (i.e. to provide a free resource of knowledge) and give a non-comprehensive view of a topic. The blocking was almost certainly unjustified, as the ruling doesn't even define what an 'attack site' is, and the link I reverted to doesn't actually contain an attack.

==Blocked==
I'm sorry, I've had to block you. I left a message on your [[User talk:81.129.56.34|IP talk page]], warning you that you'd be blocked, and linking to [[Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/MONGO#Principles|the ArbCom ruling]] that stated that "A website that engages in the practice of publishing private information concerning the identities of Wikipedia participants will be regarded as an attack site whose pages should not be linked to from Wikipedia pages under any circumstances." It also stated that users could be blocked for continuing to post those links, and that removals of such links were not subject to 3RR. In case you hadn't seen my message after logging on, I left a message for you here as well, alerting you to the message on the other page. Nevertheless, you went ahead and reposted that link. If you agree not to continue to post links to sites that harass Wikipedians (you don't need to say that you ''agree'' with the ruling, just that you're prepared to follow it), I'm happy to unblock you immediately. [[User:ElinorD|ElinorD]] [[User talk:ElinorD|(talk)]] 00:07, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
:No, I'm not going to agree to that, as the link in question does not contain any attacks or 'outings' of users. I actually signed up to Wikipedia Review the other day, as the public forums didn't contain any outings that I could see for myself, and even in the private forums I couldn't find any information that hadn't already been published elsewhere. Why on earth would I follow rules that I don't agree with? Especially rules that were formed as part of an ArbCom ruling that had no idea what would happen a few months later. I don't really care if we're not allowed to link to WR in other namespaces, but when this idiocy spills over into the mainspace the only purpose it will serve is to make us look like spiteful navel-gazers to the general public. Will the average reader of [[Essjay controversy]] care if WR 'outs' editors? I doubt it (and in my opinion, it doesn't anyway). Will they be interested in finding out how the revelations began? I think so. So I'll wait out my 24 hours, thank you, and the very first thing I will be doing when it expires is submitting a request for clarification to the Arbitration committee on this matter.

Hello,

An Arbitration case involving you has been opened: [[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/CharlotteWebb]].  Please add any evidence you may wish the Arbitrators to consider to the evidence sub-page, [[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/CharlotteWebb/Evidence]].  You may also contribute to the case on the workshop sub-page, [[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/CharlotteWebb/Workshop]].

== Your evidence at Charlotte's RfAr ==

Kamryn, as has been discussed extensively, there is no need to post links to sites that harass Wikipedians, as such links, if necessary as evidence, can be emailed privately to the Arbitration Committee. I have removed the link. As you do not have email enabled, I shall send it to the Arbitration Committee myself. Do not post it again. Thank you.

:I'm kind of dissappointed actually. Looking back, it could have been written better. Even in the lead: "The album's subject material incorporated various sexual innuendos, albeit common with the band, but lyrically introduced feelings of lust, death, contemplations of suicide, and drugs... With his return, Frusciante was credited with changing the the band's style altogether, resulting in a radically different recording than what was produced with Navarro."

== [[By the Way]]  ==

I think we can do it (if we did Californication) :). Yes, there was a major tour for By the Way, including three nights at the legendary [[Hyde Park, London]], making that event the highest grossing concert at a single venue in history, with over 280,000 tickets sold. They released [[Live in Hyde Park]], as their first and, currently, only live album. Also there was one at Slane Castle (a DVD was released). The only downside to the information aspect is that ''Scar Tissue'' ends a little before the release of ''By the Way'', so the tour information will have to be found elsewhere. Otherwise, I'm really glad to see you decided to come back.

== Californication charts ==

Hi there. Regarding [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Californication_%28album%29&curid=1574480&diff=148019316&oldid=148017520 this change], I don't think it is an improvement. The previous version was much more consistent, in that it had consistent column widths, and had only country names on the first line. I personally don't mind the line breaks, but if you feel it necessary to get rid of some of them, a better way to do that would be to increase the width of all columns to say 6em. In the meantime I've reverted your change. Have a nice day, and welcome back. --[[User:PEJL|PEJL]] 09:53, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

:PDAs and such are a very good concern. In my experience the major problem with most browsers on such smaller screens (excluding the [[iPhone]]) is the limited screen width, and the need for horizontal scrolling. Like on desktop browsers, vertical scrolling is completely accepted, while horizontal scrolling is disliked. So that is a reason to keep the columns narrow. Ideally it would be enough to just set a column width and not have to use any line breaks, but they are needed to hyphenate long words such as "Mainstream", and to fine-tune the line wrapping to make it for example "UK(break)Top 40" as opposed to "UK Top(break)40". (As for <nowiki><br> vs <br /></nowiki>, see [[Template talk:Infobox musical artist#Standardizing genre delimiters|here]] and search for "As for the XHTML argument" if you want to know why I think using <nowiki><br></nowiki> is acceptable.) Moving the charts seems like a very good idea, both because it makes the tables neater, and because it separates the references into a separate section. It can be improved further by including more information about those references, which I note [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Californication_%28album%29&oldid=148015917#_note-everyhit the previous version] did.

:Eventually, I guess. ;) I'd love any help and or additions you can give to it. I rewrote the article in one day, so some of if it (even I noticed) is a bit drifty, but Kiedis wrote quite a bit more in-depth about Blood Sugar than any other album, so there was a lot to add.

==Speedy deletion of [[:Image:Jon fratelli.jpg]]==
[[Image:Nuvola apps important.svg|48px|left]] A tag has been placed on [[:Image:Jon fratelli.jpg]] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under [[WP:CSD#I9|section I9 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], because the image appears to be a blatant [[Wikipedia:Copyrights|copyright]] infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. 

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding <code>{{tl|hangon}}</code> to '''the top of [[:Image:Jon fratelli.jpg|the page that has been nominated for deletion]]''' (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on '''[[ Talk:Image:Jon fratelli.jpg|the talk page]]''' explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for ''speedy'' deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.  <!-- Template:Db-dbimgcopyvio-notice --> <!-- Template:Db-csd-notice-custom --> [[User:Polly|<b style="color:green;">Polly</b>]]&nbsp;([[User talk:Polly|<b style="color:red;">Parrot</b>]]) 21:05, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

== Re: Bored (Asteroids) ==

I have been creating a few stubs, but I wanted to make sure I was creating them properly before doing so [[en masse]].  See [[Special:Contributions/Cobi]].  Thanks.  -- [[User:Cobi|Cobi]]<sup>([[User talk:Cobi|t]]|[[Special:Contributions/Cobi|c]]|[[User:ClueBot Commons/Bots|b]])</sup> 06:16, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

==Irony==
Wow, it is really ironic that I had an error on the same type of page. However, I was unaware of the correct spelling of ''asteroid'', which I now know. On the other hand, Cobi's mistake of "Septemberember" was much more obvious. You'll notice that I did change my !vote at his RFA to reflect my commending of his work in that area. I am now aware of the difficult and tedious nature of what he was doing. Anyway, thanks for the information on the correct spelling. P.S. - Nobody ever writes on your talk page?

I'd say block as vandalism only account. The good contributions appear to be coming at different times to the "bad ones" - so maybe the account is shared? Either way, I'd block.

Just out of interest, what is your purpose here? You've been here just a few days and you seem completely dissatisfied and some would argue you are participating in disruptive editing with your nomination of ArbCom for MfD and moving Wikipedia:Wikipedians to mob rule. They were very pointy edits and I suggest you stay away from that sort of thing in the future. I'm going to be blunt - If you're this unhappy here already, Wikipedia might not be the place for you.

Furthermore, were you to have read all my comments, you would see that I was pointing out that your accusations of meatpuppetry were inappropriate, and as [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3AArticles_for_deletion%2FOuze_Merham&diff=200665221&oldid=200664548 you yourself admitted] somewhat hypocritical. I use the proper on-wiki channels of notifying '''five''' Wikiprojects, two Arab, two Jewish, one neutral, and you get your information from the Wikipedia Review, and you are the one casting aspersions of meatpuppetry? I find that sadly humorous. Lastly, statements such as "you're part of Jayjg's mailing list" are completely inappropriate, as I have no control to whom he sends his e-mail. Should you now be referred to as on Hershelkrustofsky, Johnny Cache, and Kelly Martin's e-mail lists since you are a reader of Wikipedia Review? I would request you strike your attacking comments and restrict yourself to edits that are on content, policy, and/or logical arguments about them, as I and G-Dett have been doing. I will reiterate that it was not my intent to call you a meatpuppet, but to point out the logical inconsistency with your argument, even before you admitted to being canvassed off-wiki :( -- [[User:Avraham|Avi]] ([[User talk:Avraham|talk]]) 00:56, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

*Wikipedia Review is a public forum that is visited by most people who are interested in Wikipedia's internal politics (or if you're like me, find the drama amusing). It's hardly canvassing, unlike the case of Jayjg where he emails people privately that he knows will support him. People on Wikipedia Review rarely agree on anything, and I didn't post at that AFD because someone messaged me there asking me to watch their back, ya know? 
*Amusing that you pick some of the members with the worst reputations for your comment, when you could just as easily have mentioned [[User:Alison]], [[User:Lar]], [[User:Viridae]], [[User:Neil]], [[User:Fred Bauder]], [[User:A Man In Black]], [[User:Doc glasgow]], etc, who are all admins and in some cases checkusers and stewards. But I guess that doesn't advance your position as well as tarring me with the same brush as Johnny Cache, does it? 
*But seriously, give me a break. A person who has been shown to canvass off wiki to people he knows that will support him has an article he is involved in editing AfD'd and he and all the people he is known previously to have canvassed just happen to show up?

***(Edit conflict) No, but I was the most vocal member of the opinions that you argued with, and in a sense, was lead counsel for the opposition [[image:face-smile.svg|25px]] -- [[User:Avraham|Avi]] ([[User talk:Avraham|talk]]) 03:01, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
I know KM doesn't post there often, I read that board every now and then too, likely for the same reason you do. Naerii, have you ever been involved in a logical discussion with someone who used [[reductio ad absurdum]]? It appears to me that your responses are a result that you feel that I have been attacking you personally. If that is how you have interpreted our discourse, you have my sincere apologies. My points regarding you, as I tried to make clear on both the AfD page and here, were to show you that your statements could just have easily been turned around on you, and since that logical reversal is likely untrue, it stands to reason that the initial statement is just as likely untrue. I did not mean to say that you were to be considered the same as HK, JC, etc. What I meant is that "guilt-by-association" statements apply to everyone, and as they should not apply to you, they should neither apply to anyone else who opined in that AfD.

Here is another point: do I go around saying that G-Dett, eleland, Noor, and Tiamut are all meatpuppets of each other? Of course not! They are editors who share many of the same interests due to their common upbringing and religious faith. They frequent the same Wikiprojects, work on the same articles, and likely have each others' talk pages watchlisted. That is actually a ''good'' thing about wikipedia (in the main) in that it fosters collaboration between editors with shared interests.
Furthermore, I will take full responsibility for the detailed responses to this AfD; I cross-posted it to the deletion discussion boards of five separate projects. That is ''exactly'' how we are supposed to get "more eyes on the subject". Insinuating off-wiki canvassing remains, in my opinion, unfounded, uncalled for, and inappropriate.
In regards to [[WP:CIVIL|civility]], I accept the fact that your tone of voice and responses come from the fact that you felt attacked, but if you would kindly re-read your statements, I think you would agree that they could have been phrased in a less accusatory fashion.

Lastly, I will extend to you the same invitation to an exercise in intellectual honesty that I have extended to others. My editing history is clear and open to all. While it is true that editors with similar backgrounds and upbringings will often tend to edit similar articles and have similar points of view (e.g. Tiamut and eleland, for example) there are <u>plenty</u> of examples where I argue, vociferously, against Jay, and others who may be lumped in with him (SlimV for one). In my 22K+ edits here, I have always taken pains to make my own decisions, regardless of who has informed of what and when, and I daresay my history proves that beyond a shadow of a doubt. I invite you to look, and make up your own mind, and I am truly curious as to what you would have to say.

Thanks for listening. -- [[User:Avraham|Avi]] ([[User talk:Avraham|talk]]) 03:01, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

== Spelling corrections: millenium ==

I notice that you are correcting some occurrences of "millenium" to "millennium". I commend you in your efforts - I have recently made several hundred similar corrections. :-) However, you are 'correcting' some which I have deliberately left, because they are ''correct'' misspellings, or accurately reflect misspellings on external pages. In each case, I double-checked the spelling and left a note in a comment in the page text:
{{quote|&lt;!-- PLEASE NOTE that "Millenium" is the correct spelling here. -->}}
or
{{quote|&lt;!-- PLEASE NOTE that "Millenium" is deliberately spelled incorrectly here, reflecting the mistake on the external page. -->}}

I'm going to go back and undo those edits where "Millenium" ''really'' should be there. I'm sorry that some of your efforts haven't worked out, but please keep up the good, tireless work. :-) [[User:TimR|TimR]] ([[User talk:TimR|talk]]) 21:30, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

== Your message ==

Further to your [[WP:3RR]] message, if you check the articles edit history and the articles talk page as well as the ANI incident that I brought up with regard to the article, I was in no way whatsoever involved in an edit war. I was trying to stop an edit war which had been ongoing between two users on that article for two days, by restoring it to what appeared to be the last good version before they started edit warring. Having left a message on the articles talk page that the article had been restored to the last version before the edit war I then reverted further edits which constitued vandalism and requested Admin intervention which then happened and the article was fully protected. Thank you.[[User:Tangerines|<font color="darkorange">'''''♦Tangerines♦'''''</font>]]·<small>[[User_talk:Tangerines|Talk]]</small> 22:43, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
:Edit warring is edit warring no matter what your intentions are. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Children%27s_rights&diff=202633868&oldid=202630302 Here] you make your first revert, [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Children%27s_rights&diff=202636540&oldid=202635572 again here], and [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Children%27s_rights&diff=202637328&oldid=202637162 again]. If people are edit warring and you want to stop it, you should (a) contact the users on their talk pages, (b) make a note on the talk page of the article and (c) report for 3RR or request page protection if the users fail to respond and the edit warring continues. It's always a bad idea to join in yourself, because then you run the risk of being blocked for 3RR and you just increase the tension between the edit warriors of the article. I'm sure you were well intentioned, but then pretty much everyone who edit wars believes they are doing the right thing. -- <span style="background:#ffff00;border:2px solid #00bfff;">[[User:Naerii|<font face="verdana" color="hotpink">'''Naerii'''</font>]]</span> 22:48, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
::Fair enough, however I still believe that your "Edit warring" warning was excessive, particularly when the incident had already been dealt with by another Admin before your messages. I have been using wikipedia for a long time and I constantly look out for and revert vandalism. I have worked hard to ensure that articles are not vandlised. I also constantly look out for newly created pages for any vandalism, nonsense pages and so forth and also work to improve newly created articlesa, and to help new users with creating articles as well as working constantly toward imporving wikipedia. I clearly made a mistake in this instance, and should have reported it when the first revert of my edit occurred. However in your list of three things I should have done above, I did two of them, I just made the mistake with the third of not reporting it sooner and trying to deal with it msyelf. I fully take on board what you are saying and will ensure that I take the right steps in future. However, I think that your warning was uncalled for. Yes a personal message pointing it out, which I would have fully accepted but not a standard "you appear to be involved in an edit war" warning when it was quite clear I was trying to resolve the issue between two users. And when you had after all already pointed it out on the Admin noticeboard, by which time the incident had by then already been dealt with by another Admin, who had protected the page, and who had given a short block to one of the two users who had been edit warring for two days.

== [[Mark Foley scandal]] ==

The article is a disgrace; only an overview highlighting the major details and immediate concerns is necessary.  The article as I had seen it was 14 pages long.  The article is written like an in-depth national media outlet exposé.  This is not our place!  Moreover, it is not our place to present "all" the evidence therein.  This is most definitely being given undue weight, in that so much of this material could be summarized, and the references that cover most of the points ''directly related to the alleged actions of the subject and reactions to them by the public et. al.'' could be cited.  Don't get me wrong; it's obvious to me that the man is undeniably guilty and what he did was inexcusable on so many levels, but the "original research-"like presentation overreaches the scope and intent of Wikipedia in my opinion.  The discussion of this subject needs to be overseen by administrators and Wikipedia's scope reinforced from an administrative direction, not freely allowed to constantly be thrown about by biased editors -- one way or the other.  The deletion review looks nothing like a review, nor, in fact, was the article deleted, but redirected.

I sincerely believe that I was acting in the spirit of NPOV by my actions, and I am unconvinced by your understated accusation that my use of the tools was "bad."  Please have a discussion; don't just chide me.

== Re: Hmmm ==

Naerii, Thank you for the kind words. I admit I have though about running for admin recently. although my total # of edits would surely guarantee a failure. As I said to Keeper76 recently, sometimes I spend hours reviewing ''one'' RfA, all in the end to produce one edit, or in some cases no edit. Of course, this doesn't mean I can't become an admin, but rather that I'll have to wait a few months until I arrive at an edit count that is acceptable to the community. That's no problem for me, I still think I have a lot to learn. I hope I have nominators when the time comes, so again thank you for suggesting that you may nominate.

==[[WP:SOAPBOX|Soapbox?]]  Are you kidding me?==

Hi, I saw the debate about the atheist userbox was already closed, but I have to take issue with your characterization of that Userbox as somehow "soapboxing" above and beyond what other userboxes do.  I present for your edification:

[[:User:Nard the Bard/modern Jesus|User:N/modern Jesus]]

[[User:DBD/Userboxes/Religion/User Christian]]

[[User:DBD/Userboxes/Religion/User saved]]

[[User:America Needs Jesus/ubx/creation]]

[[User:Hexagon1/looseprotest]]

[[User:Winhunter/Userboxes/carefree anglican]]

[[User:UBX/grace]]

[[User:UBX/Unconditional Election]]

[[User:UBX/Limited Atonement]]

[[User:Justin L Raines/Userboxes/Affirm]]

I really could go on.  Policy allows people to express their opinion in their userbox as long as it is not blatantly offensive.  Frankly, I think some of the examples I cited above ''are'' blatantly offensive, but we let them go because, well, it's normal and expected.  

I know the debate is already closed, but this is something that really bothers me. --[[User:Jaysweet|Jaysweet]] ([[User talk:Jaysweet|talk]]) 12:16, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

:I didn't specify that it was soapboxing above and beyond what others do. Merely that it soapboxes. I would support the deletion of any of those userboxes.

hello.  I gave you a support for your RFA.  Just out of interest, is there anything in your edit history that I should be aware of; anything that would make me !vote oppose?  I'm not interested in the little stuff, or the "instability" that other people mention.  But if it's a frivolous nom or you have a bunch of bad-hand sock puppets please feel free to email me.  Kind regards. [[User:DanBealeCocks|<span style="color:orange;background:black; ">Dan Beale-Cocks</span>]] 21:29, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
:Haha, well, I don't know you, so I can't tell what sort of things would make you oppose. The nomination of ArbCom for deletion is the clincher, and possibly the block I had last year for posting links to attack sites. I don't recall anything else I've done that's been incredibly objectionable, though I'm sure someone will pull a few forgotten diffs out of the closet to prove me wrong. I do not, however, have any sockpuppets or the like and the nom is in all seriousness, although I have no expectation that it will pass. -- <span style="background:#ffff00;border:2px solid #00bfff;">[[User:Naerii|<font face="verdana" color="hotpink">'''Naerii'''</font>]]</span> 21:32, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

== Your RfA ==

I know that you are getting a bit disappointed with the results of your RfA, and to tell you the truth, I know exactly how you feel.  While I haven't posted an RfA onto this site yet, I have tried 5 times to have a successful RfA on the Simple English Wikipedia, all of which didn't make it.  The last 2 that I've had on the Simple English Wikipedia got me 50% and 59% respectively, so this is what I have to say to you: Keep up the good work and eventually, people will recognize that you are a good editor and nominate you for administrator in the future.  I hope I have given you good advice!

Hello, Nærii.

I wanted to personally thank you for taking part in the project-wide discussions regarding my candidacy for bureaucratship. After [[Wikipedia:Requests for bureaucratship/Avraham 2/Bureaucrat discussion|bureaucratic discussion]], the bureaucrats decided that there was sufficient significant and varied opposition to my candidacy, and thus no consensus to promote. Although personally disappointed, I both understand and respect their decision, especially in light of historical conservatism the project has had when selecting its bureaucrats. I especially wanted to thank you for the olive branch that you extended, even if it still means that you don't like me :) If you have any further suggestions or comments as to how you think I could help the project, please let me know.

::OK. That's why I came to you first, I was unsure of thoughts surrounding this practice. Although I think generally it creates a ''de facto'' conflict of interest, it's probably harmless.

:::Yeah, to be honest I don't expect it to inspire much editing anyway :) I just felt like any added little motivation would be a good thing ;) I've never really understood the COI arguments - perhaps you'd care to explain?

::::Well in your case, a limited amount of money, limited to 1 per week, probably won't lead to any real COIs. It's not ''your'' conflict of interest, but immediately the editor that starts getting paid to edit a certain article gains--maybe just technically speaking--a de facto COI. It's not for obvious reasons like NPOV issues, but for others. Say the guy trying to earn the money adds 10,000 bytes of data. Another user comes along and removes a good deal of it for various reasons. Then an edit war starts... the guy who is trying to get paid has the 1. Interest to build the article, 2. Interest to keep the article this way. and 3. (most important) Interest to do this as fast as possible in order to get paid as fast as possible. Now, these all work off various ''presumptions'' which for any individual may not be true. ''Furthermore'' I could see some real issues with people who are GA/FA reviewers, now having to review with the knowledge that actual money is on the line in regards to their decision.

::::However, all that said, I guess a small amount of money limited to once a week won't likely lead to these issues. Think of someone offering 10K for a FA... that could be problematic.

== Request for Peer Review help ==

Thank you for you work as a peer review volunteer. Since March, there has been a concerted effort to make sure all peer review requests get some response. Requests that have gone three days or longer without a substantial response are listed at [[Wikipedia:Peer review/backlog]]. I have three requests to help this continue.

1) If you are asked to do a peer review, please ask the person who made the request to also do a review, preferably of a request that has not yet had feedback. This is fairly simple, but helps. For example when I review requests on the backlog list, I close with ''Hope this helps. If my comments are useful, please consider peer reviewing an article, especially one at [[Wikipedia:Peer review/backlog]] (which is how I found this article). Yours, ...''

2) While there are several people who help with the backlog, lately I have been doing up to 3 or 4 peer reviews a day and can not keep this up much longer. We need help. Since there are now well over 100 names on the [[Wikipedia:Peer review/volunteers|PR volunteers]] page, if each volunteer reviewed just one PR request without a response from the list each month, it would easily take care of the "no response" backlog. To help spread out the load, I suggest those willing pick a day of the month and do a review that day (for example, my first edit was on the 8th, so I could pick the 8th). Please pick a peer review request with no responses yet, if possible off the backlog list. If you want, leave a note on my talk page as to which day you picked and I will remind you each month.

3) I have made some proposals to add some limits to peer review requests at [[Wikipedia_talk:Peer_review#Proposed_limits]]. The idea is to prevent any one user from overly burdening the process. These seem fairly reasonable (one PR request per editor per day, only four total PR requests per editor at a time, PR requests with cleanup banners can be delisted (like GAN quick fail), and wait two weeks to relist a PR request after it is archived), but have gotten no feedback in one week. If you have any thoughts on these, please weigh in.

Thanks again for your help and in advance for any assistance with the backlog. [[User:Ruhrfisch|Ruhrfisch]]  '''[[User talk:Ruhrfisch|<sub style="color:green;">&gt;&lt;&gt;</sub><small>&deg;</small><sup><small>&deg;</small></sup>]]''' 21:10, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

''Stadium Arcadium'' is indeed radio friendly. Too over-produced if you ask me; the beauty of ''Blood Sugar'' is that it is raw and imperfect. At the moment there's not too many left to go. ''Stadium Arcadium'', ''Mother's Milk'', ''Uplift'', ''Freaky Styley'', and ''The Red Hot Chili Peppers''. Which is only....five articles. Hah. Hopefully the band's first three should be much easier than the rest, but who knows. I'll definitely give you a call to copyedit! Those, in between some of my other projects (like ''[[Disintegration]]'' and "Under the Bridge") should be "fun".  Indie pop is good, not going to lie. I don't love the genre but some of it is really nice sounding, like the ones you mentioned. I can't think of any band that I love, however, that was formed prior to 1990. I've always felt like I was born in the wrong time, you know?

== [[Portal:History of Imperial China]] ==

Wow.  I'm very happy that you've taken on this task.  Nicely done so far.  I look forward to seeing how you finish it up.  

The "Things to do" box could list articles from various maintenance projects, "improve an article to GA status", FA status, adding articles to the "Selected" frames' queues, creating a "Did you know" for the box of the same name, and (I'm sure you can think of more), and "add more tasks to this list", etc.  

The "Topics" box will be more involved, entailing that you browse the subject's articles, and its categories, gathering links as you go.  It doesn't need to be comprehensive; all the main articles on the subject plus a good cross-section of the rest of them.  

The most major thing I noticed was the big gap under the selected biography - you could rename the top box in the left column to "Selected Dynasty", and then create a new box for "Selected article" (under the biography box), putting non-dynasty and non-biography articles in the new box - like articles on artifacts, places, customs, events, etc.  

[[Portal:Charles Dickens]] does a very good job of balancing columns, by standardizing the length of excerpts for each specific box.  Tricky, but the effect is nice.

Note that "selected" articles don't have to be "featured".

Just some thoughts.  I hope you find them helpful.

I can't wait to see the final outcome.

== The Reward Board, the Big Picture, etc. ==
: I'm planning on putting up a long term post at [[WP:RB|the reward board]] based on my subpage [[User:Naerii/Reward|here]]. As you've got an extensive list of basic topics and things you'd like to see up at AWC, I was wondering if you could give me some ideas for some core topics that need improving? I'd like to limit the list to ~50 articles. If I can motivate even one person into improving something it'll be worth it :D <small>'''[[User:Naerii|<font face="verdana" color="#CC0099">naerii</font>]] - [[User talk:Naerii|<font face="verdana" color="#CC0099">talk</font>]]'''</small> 18:14, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

You wish to be an overseer of quality coverage on Wikipedia.  Excellent.  Not too many people who I know of are keeping an eye on the Big Picture.  But you are.  Congratulations.

As you know, I've been occupied building a system that doubles as a multi-page site map of fundamental coverage on Wikipedia as well as a fundamental outline of knowledge.  When completed, it will present a solid core of subject matter.

The building of subject outlines that tie-into Wikipedia's coverage provides a bird's eye view of what is covered, what is covered well, covered not so well, and what isn't covered at all.  Our editor [[User:Earthdirt|Earthdirt]] said it best: "I am certain you know but, doing "basics" lists really lets you see how much work some of our most basic articles need.  For instance, [[interphase]] was horrible, unreadable, and inaccurate (obviously I couldn't leave it that way).  I hope it's a bit better now.  Doing [the [[List of basic cell biology topics]]] allowed me to find lots of basic inaccurate stuff about biology in lots of articles and to fix them, thanks."

Therefor, I highly recommend that you select a major subject you are very familiar with or very interested in, and develop the basic topics list for it.  In addition to providing a valuable navigation tool for Wikipedia, the effort will expose you to Wikipedia's coverage in your chosen subject area, and will increase your awareness of what is needed the most for it.

Or you could explore the lists that are already built or in the process of being built.  Currently, I'm focusing on Geography, and specifically on Wikipedia's coverage of the countries of the World.  To present this coverage and make it more easily accessible to Wikipedia's readers, I'm in the process of constructing basic topic lists for ''all'' of the countries of the world.

Those lists have many redlinks, showing gaps in Wikipedia's coverage of the corresponding countries.  That might also be a good place for you to start.  Articles are needed to replace those redlinks.  (On the drafts, beware of the government and regions sections - they contain temporary topic names, which are invalid for many countries - they're there to provide a starting point only, and need to be changed to fit each country.)

Or as Earthdirt pointed out above, you could click on the links provided in a list of basic topics of your choice and evaluate the quality of each article presented.

The best way I can think of to make a list of items needing coverage is to keep a window open with a subpage of your user's page dedicated to just that.  Then, as you explore and read Wikipedia, anytime you come across something that needs work, add it to your list.  The more specific and creative your suggestions are, the better.  That is, as you are reading and an idea occurs to you like  "wouldn't it be cool if this article had such and such...", those make the best development tasks.

While working on the [[List of basic Australia topics]] I was searching for a cool picture of kangaroos to include on there, and I noticed that almost all of the pictures available of kangaroos are either out of context or in a single context, showing roos in captivity or just sitting around doing nothing.  There's only one of a roo in flight, but it is cut off too short at the top (cutting off an ear).  What is needed are some professional quality pics of roos in flight, a large group of roos (doing whatever roos do), and multiple roos in flight.   It's the most famous animal from Australia, but our coverage of it leaves something to be desired.  Maybe you could add these to your list.

We could use some more pics of [[koala]]s and [[saltwater crocodile]]s too.   You hear a lot about crocs coming into people's backyards in Australia, but we don't have a single picture of this. 

I hope you find the above suggestions helpful.

By the way, upon realizing just how huge a task the development of 200+ country topics lists is (each one takes at least a day of effort which can stretch out to years if you can only put in a couple hours per day), I started taking your approach of spreading the word to reach out for help.  Taking that a step further, with the help of several others, I'm currently in the process of preparing a big competition (which will take place at the [[WP:AWC]]) for those who like to use advanced tools (like [[WP:AWB]] and [[Linky]]), to build small parts of the whole set of lists at once.  Right now, we're building the awards to be given away to participants and winners in the competition.

I'm looking for some people to help coordinate and oversee the collaboration/competition to make sure it runs smoothly, and to make it an exciting event.  It will be one of the largest collaborations ever attempted on Wikipedia - larger than the [[WP:TOTD]], larger than the [[Help:Contents|help system redesign]], and even larger than the main page redesign.  Hopefully it will start in about five weeks.  (Assuming the awards are ready by then).

Are you interested?

Hey, I love your Core Articles reward list. I was thinking of duplicating it myself, but I thought maybe it would be a better idea to come up with some sort of collective pot. Would it be possible for me to add $10 for every GA and $30 for every FA? So that way we could collectively offer $50 for every GA and $100 for every FA. What do you think?

:Hey, that would be fine as long as you're definitely sure you're willing to honour the commitment (it would be a bit awkward if someone made an FA and didn't get the reward they were promised!).

Hey there. I wanted to thank you for your participation in my recent RFA. I must admit, I was a little confused when you changed from oppose to support with that Eminem lyric as an edit summary. Quite curious what it was that made you change your mind! Anyhow, I've posted an [[User talk:Xenocidic/RFA|in-depth RFA analysis]] that touched on the main-space contribution issue and noted how I plan to improve on that. Your comments are welcome. P.S., there's some templated thank-spam below. cheers, [[User:Xenocidic|xenocidic]] ([[User talk:Xenocidic|talk]]) 03:00, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

I would like to thank the community for placing their trust in me during [[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Xenocidic|my recent request for adminship]], which passed 72 [[Image:Symbol_support_vote.svg|15px]] 13[[Image:Symbol_oppose_vote.svg|15px]] 2 [[Image:Symbol_neutral_vote.svg|15px]]. Rest assured, I have read each comment thoroughly and will be [[User_talk:Xenocidic/RFA|addressing the various concerns raised]] as I step cautiously into my new role as janitor. In particular, I would like to thank [[User:Balloonman|Balloonman]] for putting so much time into reviewing my contributions and writing such a thoughtful nomination statement after knowing me for only a brief period of time (and for convincing me that I was ready to take up the mop now, rather than go through [[User:Xenocidic/admin coaching|admin coaching]]).

To my fellow admins - please let me know right away if I ever take any mis-steps with my new tools. Should I make a mistake, and you reverse the action, I will not consider it to be [[WP:Wheel war|wheel-warring]] (but please tell me so I can understand what I did wrong).

To everyone - please feel free to [[:Category:Wikipedia_administrators_open_to_trout_slapping|slap me around a bit]] if I ever lose sight of the core philosophy of Wikipedia as I understand it - the advancement of knowledge through the processes of mutual understanding and respect.

Sorry, I didn't meant to make you out to seem crazy, I wrote it that way for comedic effect. =) (I can change it if you want) I must admit I did have a chuckle when I read it. at first I was like... wtf? until I realized where it was from. Still, I was rather confused - thanks for clearing that up for me. and I might take you up on that offer, though, my area of expertise... well,... it's been getting some scorn from the GA/FA review projects recently. as for addressing the opposes, I feel that they are the most important part of the RFA, they really need to be taken into account and you need to look at how you can improve for the betterment of the encyclopedia as a whole. anyways, thanks again.

:Because there's (usually) a history of editing before they run for whatever position? Although I suppose people could (and probably, some do) spend their entire time on wiki being politically correct with the aim of becoming a sysop (some people really do have too much spare time on their hands). There's not much I can do about that. But I wouldn't change from oppose to support on the basis of something they said in response to a question at an RFA as any sensible person is going to respond with whatever they have to say to get support.

Hello, [[User:Naerii|Naerii]], and thank you for your recent participation in my [[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/InDeBiz1|RfA]], which was closed per [[WP:NOTNOW]] after reaching a vote tally of '''5/15/2'''. While I am disappointed in the outcome, I understand that it - as well as the comments left by yourself and others - was in the best interests of Wikipedia at this time. I plan to take everything that was written to heart and improve myself here on Wikipedia with a goal of perhaps accepting a nomination again in the future, should someone choose to nominate me. As a way of gathering further feedback, I have created a page in my user space for other editors to leave comments about things that they might have observed during my RfA and to continue my "education process," as it may be considered. If you would like to contribute to that page, it may be found [[User:InDeBiz1/RfA Followup|here]].

==RFA comment weight==
Due to the discussion in my RFB of the way I weigh RFA comments, I'd like to hear more on what the community thinks regarding all supports weighing the same (as the default category) or if they should be assigned slightly different weights. I would assign [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship/Tinkleheimer&diff=218104891&oldid=218104467 this support] little weight in the event of a very close RFA. Would you agree on this matter or, if not, can you explain why you think it would be of equal weight with some of the other supports in that same RFA? [[User:Useight|Useight]] ([[User talk:Useight|talk]]) 16:59, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
:Sure. I don't think 'crats are demigods who can lord it over the rest of us and decide whose comments are worthy. They are members of the community just like everyone else and if I think someone would make a good admin then that's my decision - it's not up to them to decide if my reasoning is good enough. They can bugger off if they think they can tell me that my opinion is less worthy than someone else's on the basis that I didn't care to write an extra paragraph about how awesome the candidate is.

:RFA isn't AFD. Rationales aren't required; deciding who's going to be an admin is extremely subjective, and posting a rationale is therefore completely unecessary as people are going to make their own minds up based on their own criteria. It's not a discussion - no matter how much people spam that meme around. There are too many participants to make it a discussion. So why make long extended comments? I never read people's support comments. I don't need to see "This guy would make a great admin!" written in fifty different ways before I make my decision.

:The problem for me is that what you think is a poor rationale might sound like a really good rationale for someone else. And who's to say you're right, or I am, or some other guy is, or anybody? No one can. If 'crats are going to close RFAs based on whether they think the participants have made good reasoning or not, they might as well close the RFA based on their own judgement of the candidate - it amounts to the same thing. When you start discounting reasonings because "one of my favourite people" isn't good enough, it's just one step until you decide "fails my requirement of having 3000 edits" isn't good enough or "i really think this guy would be a great admin!" isn't good enough. I don't vote for crats so that they will start imposing their personal judgement on RFA discussions. I vote for them because I expect them to be impartial - and this includes not judging other people's criteria according to their own. [[User:Naerii|Naerii]] - [[User talk:Naerii|Talk]] 17:12, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

::Naerii, correct me if I am wrong, but you have added certain supports in SNOW RfAs where I ''assumed'' you were kind of kidding around, not actually supporting. Am I way off on this? [[User:Gwynand|Gwynand]] | [[User_talk:Gwynand|Talk]]•[[Special:Contributions/Gwynand|Contribs]] 17:16, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
:::Mostly just kidding around :) [[User:Naerii|Naerii]] - [[User talk:Naerii|Talk]] 17:17, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
:::Well not exactly kidding around - more, an RFA goes up and sometimes 15 people will come along and oppose before one of them realises it'd be a good idea to just close it. So I like to plop a support on in an attempt to make the candidate feel less like everyone's against him. [[User:Naerii|Naerii]] - [[User talk:Naerii|Talk]] 17:19, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

::::(ec)Yeah, which is no big deal, but in the example that Useight gave, was that really a serious support for Tinkleheimer? Again, being honest and not trying to offend, I didn't read that as a serious support by you, although the RfA wasn't in SNOW territory yet. [[User:Gwynand|Gwynand]] | [[User_talk:Gwynand|Talk]]•[[Special:Contributions/Gwynand|Contribs]] 17:20, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
:::::It wasn't all that serious, no. As you can see I was the first person to vote, and when I came along and read it, it looked like a certain SNOW to me (judging on his answers to the questions), but I liked what he wrote and figured I'd give him a bit of support before the deluge began. Obviously I was proved a bit wrong in that he got a lot more support than I expected. I wouldn't like the candidate to think I didn't support him though - it was quite refreshing to see someone with that level of cheerful enthusiasm. Usually by the time people get to RFA they're at least a little bit tarnished :) [[User:Naerii|Naerii]] - [[User talk:Naerii|Talk]] 17:23, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
:::::I should add that I only take the time to write out rationales when I'm opposing someone who looks like he has the chance to pass. If I oppose someone who obviously isn't going to pass, I usually ignore the RFA, and if I support someone it's either because (a) I've seen them around and thought they would make a good admin or (b) they're well meaning but not going to pass. [[User:Naerii|Naerii]] - [[User talk:Naerii|Talk]] 17:25, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
::::::(ec)OK then, working through this logically, the ''reason'' I thought it was a bit of a joke is because I see your overall contribs and your involvement in RfA/RfB. Sometimes you write some stuff that is just brilliant... gets right to the heart of the issue. I see who you seriously support/oppose and for what reasons. So, Useight poses a ''great'' scenario here... what if Tink somehow made it to the 70-80% support area by the end of the RfA. Also, say, your internet connection went down and you couldnt come back on to change. Would it be that bad for a crat to look at your vote, you writing "awwww" (I think I know the reasoning behind you writing that), and give very little weight to it? [[User:Gwynand|Gwynand]] | [[User_talk:Gwynand|Talk]]•[[Special:Contributions/Gwynand|Contribs]] 17:28, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
:::::::(edit conflit) Ha ha, with a name like Tinkleheimer, how can he not be cheerful? And as to my original point, yes, I agree with you that bureaucrats (or admins even) are not demigods, that's for sure. However, if they don't use any discretion at all, and instead make all !votes equal, then it becomes a straight-up numbers things. If they got three out of four supports, regardless of any other factors, they'd pass the RFA. And if it's just about the numbers, then there'd be no need for a bureaucrat because a bot could just determine if the 75% threshold had been met. [[User:Useight|Useight]] ([[User talk:Useight|talk]]) 17:30, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
::::::::Heh - I would be very much happier if we just had a bot to pass people who were over 75%. And that, my friends, is why I'll never become a 'crat (and probably not an admin now, heh). [[User:Naerii|Naerii]] - [[User talk:Naerii|Talk]] 17:38, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
:::::::It wouldn't be terrible no, but - in most RFAs I support I leave just a signature. So if we came to a 70-80% RFA where I seriously supported, I'd be a bit pissed if my support was ignored just because I didn't take the time to write a few sentences that were another way of saying "This guy would be a great admin". Additions like that are pretty much pointless because the fact that I'm signing the support column says by itself that I think the guy would be a great admin. And my reasoning beyond "I think this guy would be a great admin" (i.e. WHY I think he would be great) isn't really relevant because (in my opinion) it's none of the 'crat's business to decide if my criteria are sound or not. I realise that this is probably not what happens in practice - people are human and 'crats aren't accountable, but in RFBs I think I'm allowed to at least hold people to fairly high standards (that they probably won't keep, but eh... people will be people). 
:::::::If your point is something like "well how is the 'crat supposed to know if your support is serious or not", it's a pretty good one, that I can't really answer satisfactorily - other than to say I wouldn't have minded if Tink did become an admin and I certainly wouldn't regret giving my support. [[User:Naerii|Naerii]] - [[User talk:Naerii|Talk]] 17:38, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
::::::::Well said. [[User:Useight|Useight]] ([[User talk:Useight|talk]]) 17:43, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
:::::::::Wait, what? Weren't we just on opposite sides of the coin? :P [[User:Naerii|Naerii]] - [[User talk:Naerii|Talk]] 17:44, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
::::::::::Sorry for taking so long to reply, I had to attend my Managerial Economics course, but my "Well said" is a compliment indicating my appreciation of your well-articulated response. We don't have to agree on everything for me to appreciate the manner in which the discussion took place. Sometimes I agree during a discussion and sometimes I disagree, but I always do it agreeably. I disagree that a bot would be better than a 'crat, but I agree that you should "be a bit pissed if my support was ignored". Your support should '''never''' be ignored. No bureaucrat should ignore any comments regardless of length, presentation of diffs, etc no matter if it's in the support, oppose, or neutral column. I was saying that some comments ''weighed less'', not were ''worthless.'' [[User:Useight|Useight]] ([[User talk:Useight|talk]]) 20:09, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

==My RFB==
Thank you for your comments in [[Wikipedia:Requests for bureaucratship/Useight|my RFB]]. Since it was only at 64%, it was a shoo-in to be unsuccessful, so I withdrew. I didn't want it to run until its scheduled close time because my intent in standing for RFB was to help the bureaucrats with their workload, not give them one more RfX to close. Through the course of my RFB, I received some very valuable feedback, some of it was contradictary, but other points were well agreed upon. I have ceased my admin coaching for now to give me time to revamp my method. I don't want to give up coaching completely, but I'm going to find a different angle from which to approach it. As for my [[User:Useight/RFA Standards|RFA Standards]], I am going to do some deep intraspection. I wrote those standards six months ago and I will slowly retool them. This will take some time for me to really dig down and express what I want in an admin candidate. If, after some serious time of deep thought, I don't find anything to change in them, I'll leave them the way they are. I'm not going to change them just because of some community disagreement as to what they should be. Will I stand for RFB again in the future? I don't know. Perhaps some time down the road, when my tenure as an administrator is greater than one year, if there is a pressing need for more active bureaucrats, maybe. If there no pressing need, then maybe not. [[User:Useight|Useight]] ([[User talk:Useight|talk]]) 03:15, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

Sounds good. I re-opened it per [[Wikipedia:Guide to requests for adminship]], "If you did not wish to have your RfA prematurely removed, you may petition the person who removed it to reinstate it." But, yeah, there's no reason for it to be there at this point. [[User:Useight|Useight]] ([[User talk:Useight|talk]]) 22:48, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

== Note ==

You don't really seem to be on a break so I'll go ahead and start a new thread... hope you don't mind!  Thanks for the nice note about the RFA review.  I'm willing to give them my thoughts, and I suppose the introspection is healthy and even fun, but I'm skeptical they'll be able to do anything:  On one hand you have some people saying that RFA needs to "return to consensus", "less emphasis on numbers", "ignore bad faith opposes" (as if that means something) and on the other hand you have an editor who has actually suggested in apparent seriousness that Wikipedians are going to end up getting ''murdered'' if we continue to allow discussion at RFA.  I don't really see how we're going to reach any sort of compromise between two sides that are convinced RFA is ''completely'' broken but are thus far oblivious that they think it's broken in ''completely'' opposite ways. --[[User:JayHenry|JayHenry]] ([[User talk:JayHenry|talk]]) 01:37, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

== Re: Sigh ==

Oh ok, a part of me thought it was you just being facetious, but RfA has become sort of a battleground lately. Supporters hunting opposers, opposers become indignant and creating myriads threads at WT:RFA. That sort of thing. I could have worded my support vote a little better I suppose, but I wasn't doing it to be pointy. I should have alluded to the users experience first before launching into a Per ''opposition''. Glad you were just having a laugh though. Cheers N...aerii.

== Funny ==

Hi Naerii, I noticed [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship/Tyw7_2&diff=prev&oldid=222475109 this comment] you made regarding the acceptance line of self-nominations. Interestingly enough, I read most RfAs that get submitted, and I only found out three or four weeks ago when a self-nom candidate didn't remove the line that the "remove the acceptance line from self-noms" part was now in the instructions. Maybe I should self-nominate candidates more often: that way, I would have seen the instruction. :) [[User:Acalamari|Acalamari]] 20:24, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
:Hey, it seems even the "regulars" aren't always familiar with the self-nomination instructions, and anyway, it's not exactly hard to create an RfA without reading the instructions. :) Best wishes. [[User:Acalamari|Acalamari]] 21:48, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

Thank you for your support in [[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Frank|my recent RfA]], which closed successfully. I felt the process was a thorough review of my contributions and my demeanor, and I was very gratified to see how many editors took the time to really see what I'm about and how I can be of help to the project. As a result, some editors changed their views during the discussion, and most expressed specific, detailed points to indicate their opinion (whether it was [[Image:Symbol_support_vote.svg|Has a clue|15px]], [[Image:Symbol_oppose_vote.svg|Too green|15px]], or [[Image:Symbol_neutral_vote.svg|Definite maybe|15px]]).

A number of editors were concerned about my level of experience. I was purposeful in not waiting until a particular benchmark occurred before requesting adminship, because I feel - as many do - that adminship is not a reward and that each case is individual. It is true that I am not the most experienced editor around here, but I appreciate that people dug into my contributions enough to reach the conclusion that I seem to have a [[WP:CLUE|clue]]. Also, the best thing about this particular concern is that experience is something an editor - or administrator - can always get more of, and I'll continue doing that, just as I've been doing. (If I seem a little slow at it, feel free to [[WP:WHACK!|slap me]].)

<p>

Thanks for your early support. I did put a lot of thought and effort into my answers, and I appreciate that people noticed.

I am a strong believer in the concept that this project is all about the content, and I'm looking forward to contributing wherever I can. Please [[User talk:Frank |let me know]] if I can be of any help. In the meantime, I'm [[WP:New admin school |off to school]]...

Hello. I don't want you off the project. You, with your personal attacks and ignorant comments, just seem like you're not able to contribute to the project in a decent way.

It is not a big deal. I understand what you were trying to say, and I did not take offense at your statement at all. When I started this RFA, I expected that most (if not all) of my opposes would involve the fact that I have very little article writing experience. So, like I said, I know where you were trying to come from, just don't sweat it, it's perfectly OK. I appreciate your willingness to support me, although I must admit that that was probably the last thing I expected you to do. If you don't think I would be a good administrator, I don't want you to support me just out of feeling bad for saying what you did in your original oppose.

Hello Naerii:

Thank you very much for reviewing "Harvey Littleton" and for deeming it a Good Article. I am thrilled. 

Your recommendations have been acted upon. "Filial piety" is an old-fashioned way of saying respect for one's family or parents. This has been changed to "respect for his father's wishes."  I broke the lead paragraph into three paragraphs for ease of reading, per your request.

On the contrary to your reversion of the AfD nominations....


I disagree with your action here, and find that it is not giving proper information to those seeking to understand that this is in fact the third AfD for this article... and IMHO should be noted as such.  It was reviewed "by the community" and certainly if it had stuck out as a significant exception at the time, it would have been noted as such.

I won't get into an edit war over this, but I strong disagree with your actions here.  As there is no forum to dispute this action, I'll just leave it where it is.  --[[User:Robert Horning|Robert Horning]] ([[User talk:Robert Horning|talk]]) 18:07, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
