[edit] Please read first
- If you came here from WP:AfD, I will only change my decision if:
- It now meets a guideline
- It has been expanded with at least 2 reference/citations through WP:V.
- If you came because of a stub I removed:
- It was removed because it was long enough to justify itself
- I ignore long templates unless its the purpose of the aricle (e.g. a list)
- I dont respond to conversation in archive. Please make a new header.
[edit] RFA thanks
|
Thanks so much for your support on my RFA, which closed successfully this morning with a result of (64/3/3). I will be stepping lightly at first trying to make sure I don't mess up too badly using the tools. Any further advice/guidance will be gratefully accepted. I hope I will live up to your trust!

[edit] Teke's RfA thanks
Thank you for your support of my RfA, which has passed with a final tally of 76/1/1. With this overwhelming show of support and approval I am honored to serve Wikipedia in the task charged to me and as outlined in my nomination. Happy editing to you! Teke(talk) 17:11, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] List of beat 'em ups undeletion request
I have nominated List of beat 'em ups to be undeleted, under the reasoning that it is not redundant to the category; it contains many games which are not covered by the category, and may never be able to be covered by it. In addition, the list can do more than the category. It can put date, developer, release date, system, et al., useful especially for articles that would be difficult to create an article for. I hope that you will vote on this and hopefully support its undeletion, on the basis that it does something that makes it not redundant to the category.

Could you add to your watchlist? We've got a "add a tiny bit of scripture with my personal interpretation thereof and call it cited" kind of guy, User:Green23. —Hanuman Das 02:24, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Long-Overdue RfA Thanks from Alphachimp
|
Thanks for your support in my not-so-recent RfA, which was successful with a an overwhelmingly flattering and deeply humbling total of 138/2/2 (putting me #10 on the RfA WP:100). I guess infinite monkey theorem has been officially proven. Chimps really can get somewhere on Wikipedia.
With new buttons come great responsibility, and I'll try my best to live up to your expectations. If you need assistance with something, don't hesitate to swing by my talk page or email me (trust me, I do respond :)). The same goes for any complaints or comments in regard to my administrative actions. Remember, I'm here for you.
(Thanks go to Blnguyen for the incredible photo to the right.) alphaChimp laudare 01:21, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Do you have any knowledge of the tattvas in the western tradition? Or eastern for that matter, though I have that covered. The article that used to be there appears to have been a copyvio. Although there is a note claiming to have permission on the talk page, the article copied was completely unsuitable for WP, full of POV and original research, so I've started the article over. Check the old article for some possible references. I should probably move them to the talk page, but don't have time right now... —Hanuman Das 13:20, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] September Esperanza Newsletter
|
Here in Wikipedia there are hundreds of wikipedians whose work and efforts go unappreciated. One occasionally comes across editors who have thousands of good edits, but because they may not get around as much as others, their contributions and hard work often go unnoticed. As Esperanzians we can help to make people feel appreciated, be it by some kind words or the awarding of a Barnstar. This is where the Barnstar Brigade comes in. The object of this program is to seek out the people which deserve a Barnstar, and help them feel appreciated. With your help, we can recognize more dedicated editors! |

[edit] November Esperanza Newsletter
|
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.

- 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.

[edit] The Kybalion
Hi Zos. Tell me a little more about the Kybalion. Is it worth reading? I'm half way through the Hermetica now. Extraordinary stuff and amazing how its influence has been so suppressed in the study of science and literature now. Had I been given it to read when I was at university a great deal more work would have made sense. But then that would be too much like giving credence to it, wouldn't it? I suppose what I want to know is is the Kybalion genuinely related or were the Three Initiates doing the common thing of linking it with Hermes T so as to give it added credibility? Look forward to hearing from you. ThePeg 15:40, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
