Helpme

Alright, so here's my problem. I created a template in my sandbox and then moved it to Template:NESproj. However, my entire sandbox history was moved there. so, can an admin please move the last edit before today to User:Ac1983fan/sandbox? thanks in advance for help.--Ac1983fan (talkcontribs) 18:55, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

You ought to be posting where an admin can read it because putting help me on your user page (for some things it is fine but for some things not) might not get them to it as a help me template also can be read by regular users. ForestH2

But I don't know where I should put it... the adminsistarors noticeboard isn't appropraite, and asking them directly is just plain rude.--Ac1983fan (talkcontribs) 18:59, 6 May 2006 (UTC)
Everything bar the last edit is back as your sandbox. --pgk(talk) 19:02, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

Esperanza Newsletter, Issue #3

The Administrator Coaching program is a program aimed at preparing Wikipedians for Adminship or helping them understand the intricacies of Wikipedia better. Recently, changes have been made to the requirements of coachees. Please review them before requesting this service.
This would be something like the Welcoming Committee, but 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. Some might like suggestions about how to learn vandal patrol, or mentoring on taking an article to featured status, or guidance with a proposal they plan to make at the Village Pump, for example. In this way, Esperanza would help keep hope alive for Wikipedia because we would always be grooming the next generation of admins.
Stressbusters
The Stressbusters are a subset of Esperanza aiming to investigate the causes of stress. New eyes on the situation are always welcome!
Note from the editor

Highway's RfA

Request for Adminship
Thank you for supporting/objecting/tropicanising me in my request for Adminship. Although I wasn't promoted to admin status, with a final vote count of 14/27/12, I am very happy with the response I received from my fellow Wikipedians. I was pleasantly suprised at the support, and was touched by it. I will also work harder on preventing disputes and boosting my edit count (which is on the up), so thank you to all your objectors. Hopefully I will re-apply soon and try again for the mop. Thanks again, Highway Rainbow Sneakers

Hope you don't mind...

...but I was looking at your contributions from WP:ER and noticed some misspellings in your warning templates. I took the liberty of spellchecking your templates. (I know, I'm being picky here.) I'll finish the editor review later on -- right now, I should get some sleep. --Elkman - (talk) 04:48, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

I don'ts mind. Thank you.--Ac1983fan (talkcontribs) 18:36, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

VandalProof 1.2 Now Available

After a lenghty, but much-needed Wikibreak, I'm happy to announce that version 1.2 of VandalProof is now available for download! Beyond fixing some of the most obnoxious bugs, like the persistent crash on start-up that many have experienced, version 1.2 also offers a wide variety of new features, including a stub-sorter, a global user whitelist and blacklist, navigational controls, and greater customization. You can find a full list of the new features here. While I believe this release to be a significant improvement over the last, it's nonetheless nowhere near the end of the line for VandalProof. Thanks to Rob Church, I now have an account on test.wikipedia.org with SysOp rights and have already been hard at work incorporating administrative tools into VandalProof, which I plan to make available in the near future. An example of one such SysOp tool that I'm working on incorporating is my simple history merge tool, which simplifies the process of performing history merges from one article into another. Anyway, if you haven't already, I'd encourage you to download and install version 1.2 and take it out for a test-drive. As always, your suggestions for improvement are always appreciated, and I hope that you will find this new version useful. Happy editing! --AmiDaniel (talk) 02:02, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

WillC

Seriously, what do you want from me? If you want a debate on truth, fine. Note the hypocrisy on the admin vote comments. I was criticed for my stand on accurate info, and now you say there is TRUTH. There can't be both. As far as I'm concerned you are harassing me and vandalizing my talk page, so you are lucky I have not reported you! The admin vote is over; you have no business with me. Leave me alone to edit in good faith as I HAVE ALWAYS DONE HERE. And don't erase this from YOUR talk page! WillC 15:52, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

Why would I erase it? There is nothing I want from you, but you can't remove comments from your talkpage. I'm not harassig you. Infact, this is a perfect example of why your RFA failed. Finally, I was not vandalising your talkpage.--Ac1983fan (talkcontribs) 18:39, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

VandalProof

You filed a bug report, User talk:AmiDaniel/VP/Bugs#Not Reverting that is still not resolved. Will you please have a look at this and help us help you!! If it is resolved please tell us that! Thanks Eagle talk 23:45, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

Atkins Diet issue

There is an issue going on the Atkins Diet site where someone got a links removed ( user:BrianZ ) and in turn went around deleting all of the valid links from the site.

I tried to work it out with him and it has been difficult to say the least.

It is currently in moderation. To try to get a compromise I created : Atkins Diet Discussion Forums

To which I guess you added your comments to. I am not sure if you were aware of the history.

The idea was to have forums posted ( that were in the atkins diet section before BrianZ started removing them ) in this new page.

Then link to it from the main Atkins page. It is my opinion that the links that were on here were not in any violation of any wiki policy but BrianZ has taken it upon himself to continuously remove these links.

I thought this page: Atkins Diet Discussion Forums

was a fair compromise. I can see why you deleted it as it kind of goes against wiki however. In this case at least temporarily ( until we are out of arbitration ) could we keep the site?

Regards, Tom Tommac2

Restored per your request. Sorry if I contributed to the confusion. ←Humus sapiens ну? 20:08, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

Portal:Nintendo

Technically, the Nintendo Portal wasn't really created out of process, because during time period in which I created the portal, it wasn't mandatory (only a recommendation) that a user should propose a portal before creating it, similar to creating a WikiProject. Anyhow, thanks for offering to improve the Nintendo Potal, you've done a lot of great work on the Nintendo WikiProject. :) --TBC (aka Tree Biting Conspiracy) 02:24, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

Gee, thanks! I can't take all the credit, though. I had some help finding out what to add from User:Lee_Bailey and User:SomeStranger.--Ac1983fan (talkcontribs) 22:34, 10 June 2006 (UTC)

Esperanza?

In my view, writing HOVERCRAFTS DONT EXIST in Southsea Hoverport is the exact opposite of strengthening Wikipedia's sense of community. It is pure vandalism. Practice what you preach. -- RHaworth 09:40, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

  • Sorry. I was tired, stressed, and confused at the time.--Ac1983fan (talkcontribs) 12:17, 11 June 2006 (UTC)


That's Ok from me but as penance you must read Hovercraft and Christopher Cockerell. And (adopts voice of E.L.Wisty) don't do it again! Britmax 19:56, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

Well, I thought that, when it said "hovercrafts" It meant something more things that hover above the air.--Ac1983fan (talkcontribs)

Pokédex referencing

You need to link to an online copy of the pokédex if you are referencing it. Cheers, Highway Rainbow Sneakers 21:45, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

Re: Pokemon pages

No it's OK. I need to fix the pages on my wiki before I add the template. The é in Pokémon was changed to é when I moved the database. It's slow work, but I'm over the halfway point now. Thanks anyway. Gerard Foley 13:37, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

A short Esperanzial update

As 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.

Thanks and kind, Esperanzial regards, —Celestianpower háblame 16:00, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

RfA Questions

I saw the questions you added on Alfakim RfA, did you make them up? They're very creative! Didn't quite understand what "Is the glass half-full or half-empty?" meant though, is it a trick question?--Andeh 19:43, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, I made them up. And the glass half-full/half empty is just a little personality question.--Ac1983fan 19:45, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
