[edit] Wigwam Motel
Thanks for your article on the Wigwam Motel in Holbrook! It's a neat place that really deserved a good article that explains some of the history. --Nebular110 15:11, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Elonka
Thank you very much for your support in my RfA. Unfortunately consensus was not reached, and the nomination was not successful, but I still plan to continue with my strong support of the Wikipedia project. Thanks again! --Elonka 07:37, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Elonka Dunin Change - why not just DO IT rather than delete questioned passage?
See [1]
Google search order doesn't indicate "popularity" in the way this sentence is claiming. Be more specific saying it comes up first in a Google search if you want
I'm mystified as to why you didn't just edit the more correct indication of Google "popularity" as you addressed (and I agree) rather than just delete the reference of "popularity"? Go ahead and do what you propose ("turns up first in Google search") rather than object and delete. Wikipedia allows users to make changes directly. If you don't like something, why not just change it? - Quartermaster 16:56, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
- Because, phrased that way, I don't personally find it interesting enough to even warrant inclusion. But if you want to add an uninteresting fact to the article, feel free. De-mystified now? —Wknight94 (talk) 17:04, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

- (clarification) Wknight94 (and his pal Ned Scott (talk • contribs)) has been stalking me recently, making little sniping edits like this to a variety of articles that are related to me. Diffs and documentation are at User_talk:Elonka#Stalking. My guess is that Wknight is angry that I called him out in a Naming conventions discussion, where he was talking about using his admin tools to push his own POV, and I pointed out that that would be unethical. I also repeated back to him his own statement from his RfA, where he himself said that it would be improper for admins to use their tools on articles that they were involved with. It evidently "stung" him, so he's now got it twisted around his head somehow that my reading of his RfA is "stalking" him, and he's responding by stalking through my own contrib history and other articles related to me. There's also an indication that he's trying to stick me into a Catch-22: He's making challenging edits to Elonka-related articles, but if I make any changes, even if just to add a source, I'll get pounced on for WP:AUTO violations. Wknight, I agree with Quartermaster. If you want a change made, do it. If you want a reference on something related to me, ask me for it. I'll give it to you, you can add it to the article in any way that you want, and life goes on. Stop with the harassment. --Elonka 18:50, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
- Your notions of "stalking" and "harassment" and sticking you into a Catch-22 are getting boring. I don't care nearly enough. I also don't care about your WP:AUTO activity - although I see that's gotten the attention of folks like Danny (talk • contribs) at the Foundation. Go ahead and AUTO away for all I care. You should both admit here though that my removal of the content at question is completely justified. If you don't like how I came across it, that's the unfortunate price of making yourself so conspicuous. But having a statement that gaudy immediately followed by a citation which has no relationship to the statement itself is very inappropriate and should have never been added. Wikipedia 101. —Wknight94 (talk) 20:04, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
