[edit] Barnstar

Thank you for the barnstar. It made for a very nice start to my recent wikibreak. Enjoy your wikibreak as well :). NoSeptember 02:06, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Maps

I was just wondering if you could please help me with Texas maps. I've seen that you've made several, highlighting certain counties of Texas. But even through the tutorials, I cannot understand how to make them. Your help would be greatly appreciated. And by the way, have fun on your wikibreak! --Stallions2010 22:24, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sysop removal request.

This post is to confirm that I resign my status as an administrator on the English wikipedia and request that my sysop access here be removed. Thanks. -JCarriker 17:56, 8 September 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Sorry to see you go but enjoy your retirement!

JCarriker, I'm sorry you're leaving but I hope you enjoy your retirement. I also hope your are feeling healthy these days. If there is ever anything I can help you with, just drop me a line. Best, --Alabamaboy 18:06, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

Ditto to that. It was nice to see you around Esperanza for a bit, and I hope all is well post-Wikipedia. -- Natalya 14:03, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
JC, I have always admired you, and I am sad to see you go. That said, I wish you all the luck in the world with any future endeavours. Best of luck, and so long, Thε Halo Θ 14:36, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
Its sad to see you go, you've been a great editor and Esperanza wouldn't have existed without you. Whatever happens in the future, you will always be remembered as a great editor and user. Good luck. I just hope to see you outside wiki occasionally. --Terence Ong (T | C) 13:05, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

Echoing the above, albeit a little late. Enjoy the Wiki retirement, and of course your studies. (Ha ha, you can't complain next time now. :P) All the best -- Banes 21:15, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

Same here (better late than never). Thank you for your help and everything, enjoy your retirement, hopefully think about coming back at some point? Enjoy... Gryffindor 08:33, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] November Esperanza Newsletter

Program Feature: Admin Coaching (needs coaches!)
Admin Coaching needs coaches!!! If you are an administrator, or even a generally experienced user, do consider signing up to be a coach.

Admin Coaching, now being coordinated by HighwayCello, is a program for people who want help learning some of the more subtle aspects of Wikipedia policy and culture. People are matched with experienced users who are willing to offer coaching. The program is designed for people who have figured out the basics of editing articles; they're not newcomers any more, but they might want some help in learning new roles. In this way, Esperanza would help keep hope alive for Wikipedia because we would always be grooming the next generation of admins.

What's New?
The Tutorial Drive is a new Esperanza program! In an effort to make complicated processes on Wikipedia easier for everyone, Esperanza working to create and compile a list of tutorials about processes here on Wikipedia. Consider writing one!
A discussion on how Esperanza relates to the encyclopedia has been started; please add your thoughts.
Many thanks to MiszaBot, courtesy of Misza13, for delivering the newsletter.
  • The list of proposed programs has been updated, with some proposals being archived.
  • There is now a new program: the Tutorial Drive! Consider writing a tutorial on something you are good at doing on Wikipedia.
  • The suggestion of adding a cohesive look to all the Esperanza pages is being considered; join the discussion if you are interested!
  • In order to make a useful interlanguage welcome template, those involved in translation projects will be asked what English Wikipedia policies are most important and confusing to editors coming from other language Wikipedias.
  • A discussion of Esperanza's role in Wikipedia is being held, with all thoughts of all Esperanzians wanted!
  • Shreshth91 informed everyone that he will be leaving the Esperanza council as life is rather busy; his spot will be filled by the runner up from the last election, HighwayCello.
Signed...

Although having the newsletter appear on everyone's userpage is desired, this may not be ideal for everyone. If, in the future, you wish to receive a link to the newsletter, rather than the newsletter itself, you may add yourself to Wikipedia:Esperanza/Newsletter/Opt Out List.
