[edit] Expansion of WikiProject Hard Rock

You initiated the WikiProject, so I would really like it if you could look over my proposal to expand it to cover rock music in general, and make yourself heard. See Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Hard Rock. Cheers. --Reaper X 00:58, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

Yea, for sure man! Then its settled: WikiProject Hard Rock will now become WikiProject Rock music. Cheers. --Reaper X 22:00, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

Well I have sent all members notices, and you are basically the only one that has provided a response. It's been over 2 weeks now. I asked the WikiProject Council, and they said it would just be easiest to move all the related pages to their new names ( ... Hard Rock → ... Rock music). Shall I get started? --Reaper X 20:36, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

Yea, I'll let everybody know. I have made all the page moves and it is now official, we are now part of WikiProject Rock music! Eh, and I see that you have made an invitation already. Thats awesome, if you could keep inviting people that would be great! I wanna really get this going, get more articles, members, etc. Cheers. --Reaper X 01:03, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

Not that I can think of. Nothin besides getting the expansion going. More members and articles is what we need, and all that I can think of. Sorry. I never tried recruiting people, I may do that tonight as I dont have any plans. --Reaper X 21:19, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Rock WikiProject

I appreciate the invitation but I am spread pretty thin right now. I'm afraid I don't have spare time to join another WikiProject. Good luck though! --Aguerriero (talk) 22:19, 13 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 last AC meeting (full log) 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... Natalya, Banes, Celestianpower, EWS23, FireFox, The Halo, Shreshth91 and HighwayCello 20:33, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

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.

[edit] Thank you

For reverting the vandalism. :) RadioKirk (u|t|c) 13:50, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your RfA

Hello! I have left my comments on your RfA. The key message is 'get some experience', as your answers don't reveal a working knowledge of admin-related tasks, processes and duties that require your usage of the admin tools. I see above that you have the Esperanza newsletter. Take a look at the Admin coaching programme that they run, you will find that useful. Try another RfA application in 2-3000 edits time. Regards, (aeropagitica) 23:18, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

Sorry for having to oppose your RfA, but you need to get a wider view of what adminship is all about. I'm on that same learning curve! --Steve 00:50, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

It is my regretful task to inform you that I have closed your request for adminship early as unlikely to achieve consensus. Please do not be discouraged; a number of users have had their first RfA end without consensus, but have been promoted overwhelmingly in a later request. Please continue to make outstanding contributions to Wikipedia, and consider requesting adminship again in the future. You may find Wikipedia:Guide to requests for adminship helpful in deciding when to consider running again. If I can be of any help to you, please do not hesitate to ask. Essjay (Talk) 06:43, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hi

Thanks for asking me if I would be interested in adminship. But, I am still inactive (and hope to return in December). I will let you know when I become active again. Thanks, again. :) Cheers --soum^সৌমোyasch 08:40, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ashley West

A tag has been placed on Ashley West, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable (see the guidelines for notability here). If you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself.

Please read the criteria for speedy deletion (specifically, articles #7) and our general biography criteria. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Princess Tiswas 17:01, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Question

Admins usually like to see at least a few thousand edits from prospective admins, plus at least six months' active participation and a good grasp of policy—subject to individuals' pereferences, of course. :) RadioKirk (u|t|c) 19:27, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Review

I reviewed you, and gave you some advice toward achieving your goal of admin. Cheers, -- THL 21:29, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Editor review archived

Thanks for having requested an editor review. A month has passed since it has been posted there, and it has been archived. You can find it at Wikipedia:Editor review/DavidJJJ, where you may read last minute additions. We would really appreciate your help in reviewing a random editor. If you have any questions, please contact me at my talk page. Ian Manka 22:06, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re:Rock wikiproject

Hey man, not a problem. I hope and expect the Wikiproject will blossom even more in the future. Although I am not as dedicated to Wikipedia as I used to be (due to real life), I try and attract as much attention as possible to the greatest genre of music on the planet! One of my developments today was a talk template for album/single/DVD's of Rock Wikiproject bands, {{Wikiproject Rock music disco}}. I also hope to add a rating system to the {{Wikiproject Rock music}} template much like has been done on the Alternative Rock Wikiproject's header (ie. High importance, A rating as seen on the Smashing Pumpkins talk page). I have to thank you though. If you never even initiated the project, theres no way in hell I would have even had the thought or inspiration. Cheers dude. --Reaper X 18:49, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

By the way, I worked coat check at a hotel today. Boring, but I got my dad to hook me up with a laptop and the password for the hotel's network. So I sent invites to all WikiProject Alternative music and WikiProject Metal participants. So expect to see a huge swarm of participants in the next couple days, I've already seen a bit in the few hours since... :D --Reaper X 05:11, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] blink-182 Pop Punk vs Punk Rock vote

As you have recently contributed to the blink-182 article you might be interested in casting your vote towards reaching a final consensus on the bands genre, Pop Punk or Punk Rock, votes can be cast here. cheers mate --Dan027 07:06, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Alkaline Trio's genre

You recently contributed to the articles Alkaline Trio and Crimson (album). Your comments in the discussion taking place on Talk:Alkaline Trio would be most welcome. --Paul Erik 20:19, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hey

Hi. Remember you had offered to nominate me for adminship and I said I would let you know when I return to editing here. Well, I am fairly active for around a month now, and if you would still want to nominate me, you can. :)

By the way, I see you are also aspiring to be a sysop. I went through your contribution summary. While your edits are pretty sound, you might consider spending a bit more time in the Wikipedia namespace - policy discussions, XFDs etc. Wish you all the best. :) --soum (0_o) 10:00, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
