It's like people can be against abortion, and for only overturning roe vs. wade leaving it up to the states, instead of a total ban on it. --Rayc 19:40, 11 June 2006 (UTC) [edit] fair use image on your userpageHi, I just wanted to let you know that I removed a fair use image that was on your user page.

[edit] My RFAHi The Gerg/archive 3,Thank you for supporting my RFA! Unfortunately it did not succeed mainly because most opposers wanted me to spend more time on Wikipedia. Thank you for your faith in me & looking forward to your continued support in the future.

[edit] User renameHi! I took the liberty of moving your user page to your new user name, I hope you don't mind. =) Jon Harald Søby 10:00, 14 May 2006 (UTC) [edit] RE:QuestionsHello! I hope you are doing fine. No, I am not an admin yet but I wish to become one in the future. I was recently nominated and the result of my nomination was not successful. That nomination ended on April 18 2006. It has now been nearly one month and I feel that it is too soon to go for another nomination. Perhaps you can nominate me in early June 2006, but not now. Thank You for your kind attention. --Siva1979Talk to me 19:41, 14 May 2006 (UTC) [edit] WikiLove~Linuxerist E/L/T has smiled at you!

[edit] Your edit current countYour current edit count are as follows: Well, that's your edit count. :-) Funnybunny (talk/QRVS) 01:43, 15 May 2006 (UTC) [edit] Userbox WarsI've been concerned that Cyde was coming dangerously close to disrupting Wikipedia to make a point. I'm glad someone else has the same feeling. I've tried to discuss it with him on his talk page but I get no response, which is not in keeping with the best traditions of Adminship as I see it. I'd like to discuss the options available to us (& like-minded others) to get Cyde (& those of similar opinion) to take a break from this flood of userbox deletions, since I can't seem to reach him. He's also trying to get a bot request approved so he can further speed up the userfying of userbox templates. Whichever way the final policy goes, if these folks do enough deletions beforehand, it won't matter much. I just think they need to wait until we have a consenssus policy.--Ssbohio 03:34, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] updated edit countYou requested your edit count, so here it is: Well, that's your edit count. Read and weep... I mean... enjoy! Funnybunny (talk/Counter Vandalism Unit) 03:00, 27 May 2006 (UTC) [edit] Welcome to Esperanza!
Welcome, The Greg, to Esperanza, the Wikipedia member association! As you might know, all the Esperanzians share one important goal: the success of this encyclopedia. Within that, we then attempt to strengthen the community bonds, and be the "approachable" side of the project. All of our ideals are held in the Charter, the governing document of the association.
Now that you are a member, you might be interested in some of our programs. A quite important program is the StressUnit, which seeks to support editors who have encountered any stress from their Wikipedia events, and are seeking to leave the project. So far, Esperanza can be credited with the support and retention of several users. We have a calendar of special events, member birthdays, and other holidays that you can add to and follow. In addition to these projects, several more missions of Esperanza are in development, and are currently being created at Esperanza/Possibles. I encourage you to take an active voice in the running of Esperanza. We have a small government system, headed by our Administrator general, Celestianpower, and guided by the Advisory Committee, Titoxd, JoanneB, and Freakofnurture. If you have any other questions, concerns, comments, or general ideas, Esperanzian or otherwise, know that you can always contact me by my talk page, Celestianpower by email or talk page, or the Esperanza talk page. Alternatively, you could communicate with fellow users on our IRC channel, #wikipedia-esperanza (which is also good for a fun chat or two :). If you're new to IRC, please see the IRC Tutorial, which was written by one of our members. I thank you for joining Esperanza, and look forward to working with you in making Wikipedia a better place to be! Thanks! G.He 16:30, 27 May 2006 (UTC)[edit] Wikipedia:Protected UserpageIf we really wanted to stop vandalism, why not protect all pages? On second thought, forget about being a wiki, lets make Wikipedia into Encyclopædia Britannica Online and get rid of vandalism once and for all! Seriously though, the main page and the other articles that you've mentioned are protected because they are continually vandalized and thus need to be protected. On the other hand, not all userpages are constantly vandalized, thus not all of them need to be protected. --☆TBC☆ 22:14, 27 May 2006 (UTC) [edit] ColumbineWhy did you revert User:EngineerScotty's edit? ዮም(Yom)Leave a message 05:55, 28 May 2006 (UTC) [edit] UserboxesWhy are you directing your invective towards me?

I want you to have a good Graduation Party over the summer. Now that the only means of communication is at Wikipedia, I just want to tell you to Have A Great Summer, buddy. Funnybunny (talk/Counter Vandalism Unit) 22:49, 30 May 2006 (UTC) [edit] RE:RFA voteHello, my friend! I hope you are feeling fine! As regards to your question, I DO oppose some votes in RfAs. See the RfAs here and here. There are also some other RfAs which I had opposed. However, the total number of oppose votes I had ever cast is around 4 or 5. The reason, why I voted Sympathy votes for some RfAs is that the candidate will clearly fail in his nomination. I do not wish to pile on the oppose votes and discourage the respective users any further. RfAs can be a very harsh process and many users have left Wikipedia completely because of this. Moreover, I believe that every candidate has some redeeming qualities which deserves a support vote (Of course there are exceptions but these cases are very, very, rare). Whatever, votes I have casted, I always stand by them despite an overwelming opposition. On a personal basis, I do not like to discourage users by opposing them. For example, with regards to your RfA, I sincerely believe that you would be a good admin. Just be patient for a little longer and continue to make quality contributions to Wikipedia. Notice that I did not type in Sympathy for your RfA. Lastly, I was nominated for administration about 2 months back and the result was not successful. Right now, I feel that it is about time to run for administration again and I am waiting for someone to nominate me. If I fail in my second nomination, I will still carry on making quality contributions to Wikipedia. In the time being, I would like to wish you all the best and do not feel discouraged by the absymal performance of your recent RfA! Try again in about two months time. --Siva1979Talk to me 04:08, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

-- Natalya 04:15, 3 June 2006 (UTC) [edit] Trading spacesHello, The Gerg, thank you for signing up to participate in Esperanza's trading spaces program. As you requested to renovate another user's page, you will be renovating Cchan199206's userpage. Please contact Cchan199206 on their talk page about the renovating. The renovating will be listed at Wikipedia:Esperanza/Programs#Undergoing_Renovation, please feel free to update the status as it changes. Enjoy!
[edit] Esperanza Trading SpacesThanks for your offer on improving my userpage! Actually, I have decided removing my userpage from the candidates list; I plan adding some content to it in the near future - there's no use in improving the design of an ampty page, after all. So, maybe I'll be accepting your offer then?

The Gerg 01:36, 8 June 2006 (UTC) There's a discussion about it at the DelCom talk page, if you wanna vote on it. Funnybunny (talk/Counter Vandalism Unit) 01:39, 8 June 2006 (UTC) Well, if you want to, you can vote oppose and also have a final say in the discussion, since you're No. 1 on the DelCom list. Funnybunny (talk/Counter Vandalism Unit) 01:41, 8 June 2006 (UTC) Well, I changed my vote after some though, and proposed a new no-censorhip policy (on the proposals page). The Gerg 01:51, 8 June 2006 (UTC) I voted neutral for a very good reason. You can see it at your proposal page. Funnybunny (talk/Counter Vandalism Unit) 02:11, 8 June 2006 (UTC) [edit] Thank You

Fritz Saalfeld (Talk) 17:58, 14 June 2006 (UTC) [edit] Trading Spaces program and WP:UPHHello The Gerg. I noticed recently on Esperanza's Trading Spaces program that you were listed as a member renovating another's userpage. I am here to tell you that the Trading Spaces program has left Esperanza and has merged into WikiProject User Page Help. WikiProject User Page Help is a new WikiProject designed to help Wikipedians with the technical side of Wikipedia, HTML codes, markups, etc. It has been discussed and the Trading Spaces program has been merged into the our new WikiProject. I have also come to invite you to our new project. If you would like to become a member, feel free to add your name to the list of participants. Whether you join or not, you're still free to join the Trading Spaces program. Cheers! — The King of Kings 22:18, 20 June 2006 (UTC) [edit] A short Esperanzial updateAs you may have gathered, discussions have been raging for about a week on the Esperanza talk page as to the future direction of Esperanza. Some of these are still ongoing and warrant more input (such as the idea to scrap the members list altogether). However, some decisions have been made and the charter has hence been amended. See what happened. Basically, the whole leadership has had a reshuffle, so please review the new, improved charter. As a result, we are electing 4 people this month. They will replace JoanneB and Pschemp and form a new tranche A, serving until December. Elections will begin on 2006-07-02 and last until 2006-07-09. If you wish to run for a Council position, add your name to the list before 2006-07-02. For more details, see Wikipedia:Esperanza/June 2006 elections.

Your first trainee is SP-KP. Your fellow coach is (aeropagitica). I suggest you start off by introducing yourself to your trainee, and sort out details like coaching location (I find a central user subpage, and sometimes IRC depending on practicalities, the best). Let me know if you have any questions about the coaching. Cheers, Petros471 13:31, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
Hello again! SP-KP has expressed an interest in Wikipedia culture from an admin point-of-view. Can we find/formulate examples of admin actions that have come about as a result of Wiki-culture, do you think? (aeropagitica) (talk) 16:26, 8 July 2006 (UTC) [edit] Admin coachingHi. Thanks for getting in touch. Definitely still interested, though no rush. Cheers SP-KP 19:34, 20 July 2006 (UTC) [edit] You wanted me to come to you about Cyde's actionsWell, here I am... Cyde deleted a user subpage of mine & moved another over the top of it. To my mind, he had no business doing either. Another admi, who asked not to be identified, emailed me the contents of the deleted page. What can I do about Cyde, as he seems entirely recalcitrant with regard to acting within policy? --Ssbohio 02:03, 28 July 2006 (UTC) [edit] Out of process deletionWhen I first discovered Kelly Martin/B, I copied it to a user subpage, Ssbohio/B (history logs). I also created Ssbohio/BB (history logs) to do more work on Kelly Martin's concept of listbuilding. Along comes Cyde who deletes B and moves BB to B with the comment (Proper naming scheme). I raised an objection on his talkpage, and Cyde moved B back to BB (where it started), leaving the comment (User wants another name). I asked again on his talkpage that the original B be undeleted. He responded that he wouldn't undelete the page because he didn't like my attitude. Cyde cites no policy in support of his action. Can you restore these pages as they were before Cyde tinkered with them? If not, what am I supposed to do? Thanks for your attention, & I'd appreciate a reply on my talkpage. If not, I can check back here. --Ssbohio 03:04, 27 July 2006 (UTC) [edit] Re: Your comments to my talk pageThe Gerg, it may have been rude of me to jump to conclusions about you and Funnybunny, but it is more rude for you to show up out of the blue and blame me for your recent Wikistress. My three month old opinion is just that, my opinion, and if you thought it was incorrect you should have just ignored it (like I thought you did when you deleted my comments from your talk page). I am not an influential or high profile user around here, so it's not as though not getting my mark of approval was going to spell doom for anybody here on Wikipedia. Indeed, I was impressed when I saw you around a few times after our exchange and noticed that you were a productive, good-faith editor. Hopefully you agree that your RfA nominations (both given and accepted) were probably all way premature, and one of the problems with inexperienced users wanting adminship is that they usually don't actually know what adminship is before they ask for it -- they just see a lofty title and decide it would be nice if they had it. That's what caused me suspicion, to see you two who know each other in real life wanting adminship so bad and not being sure that you weren't up to mischief.
[edit] LanguagesHi There! Can you translate my name in what language you know please, and then post it Here. I would be very grateful if you do (if you know another language apart from English and the ones on my userpage please feel free to post it on) P.S. all th translations are in alpahbetical order so when you add one please put it in alpahbetical order according to the language. Thanks!!! Abdullah Geelah 16:41, 5 August 2006 (UTC) [edit] RE:RFAHello, Greg! I hope you are feeling fine. As for your nomination of my RfA, I have to decline it presently. My last RfA was only about two months ago and I feel that it is too soon. However, I would reconsider this in about a month's time. I wish to thank you for having faith in me. Wish you all the best for the future! --Siva1979Talk to me 17:59, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
