I hope everything ends up alright! Feel better, and I'm sure Wikipedia will still be here when you get back :D Cowman109Talk 18:14, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

There. That was an improvised healing spell, it should channel some funky energies into your talk page, which will then funnel directly into your pineal gland via osmosis, or something of that mystical nature. --The Prophet Wizard of the Crayon Cake 18:26, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] RfA thanks

Thank you very much for your support for my recent RfA, which I'm quite happy to announce has passed with a consensus of 67 supporting, 0 opposed and 0 neutral. I'm glad you took the time to evaluate my candidacy, and I'll be working hard to justify the vote of confidence you've placed in me. Please let me know at my talk page if you have any comments on my performance as an admin. Thanks! TheProject 02:11, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

P.S. Best wishes for your own RfA.

Huge congratulations to you, man. For several months, I was thinking that of everyone here that wasn't an admin, you deserved to be promoted more than anybody. Thanks for nominating me a while back too; I personally haven't used the tools very often (I'm still an editor with admin powers!), but when I have used them I've been thankful to have them. I hope things work out well for you to come back here soon; it's always great having you around! Good luck to you with everything, and I'll be praying that your arm will get better. --Idont Havaname (Talk) 03:04, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

Hi, Jaranda. I just want to say I'm really, really pleased that you've become an admin. It's long overdue. I was impressed by your concern and support for Katefan0 at a very sad time a month ago, and I'm sure you'll be an even greater help to all victims of harassment now that you have "the tools". Hope your arm gets better soon. Cheers, and Congratulations! AnnH ♫ 20:25, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

Warmest congratulations! :) Nobody has had to work through so many obstacles in order to get the tools, and I know you'll impress in your new role! I do hope you feel better soon as well. Best wishes, Xoloz 21:13, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Closing AFD discussions

Since you recently got promoted to admin, I would like to remind you that when you delete an article on AFD, paste the link to the discussion in the "Reason for deletion" box (ie add [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Article]] ) instead of just entering "per AFD". It makes it easier for everybody else to have easy access to the AFD discussion instead of trying to search for it. Please refer to WP:DPR for more information. Thanks. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 20:45, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ann Frank's Cats

You closed that AfD today with ano consensus tag. The article had previously been AfD'd and the consensus was merge.

Since the article had been previously tagged with a merge tag, then I assume that the no consensus decision means that it stands as it is - and the merge tag be replaced? Could you arrange that? I also assume that since the article was due to be merged more than 5 days ago that it should be deleted forthwith?Neuropean 20:56, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

There was a fair share of both merge, keep and delete votes so I closed it as no consensus. You can merge it if you want. Thanks Jaranda wat's sup 21:00, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

I'm afraid that, as ever, Neuropean is misrepresenting in order to pursue his vendetta and little campaign. The previous discussion (when a much smaller and different article was called just Moortje) waqs speedily closed because Neuropean had opened the AfD (as his 2nd eber edit - strange) and then, within 10 minutes voted for a merge. The reult was NOT merge but to discuss a merge - a very different matter. Pwerhaps you'd care to look at Neuropean's contributions and behvaiour in the past two weeks. Certainly their is point-making and a very destructiuve approach to certain articles, there is also a rather alarming fixation with my edits. He has been warned about his behaviour but continues. What do you suggest? Robertsteadman 07:09, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

My sweet Jaranda, above everything else, we care about you, our friend, so allow me to wish you the best, and may your arm heal satisfactory, and very fast - I know angels rely on their wings mostly, but we need you to keep on typing! ;) That is what matters to me now, more than anything; that you are well. Second in my list is to share my happyness of finally seeing you as an admin, for I know it has been a personal dream of yours for even longer than many of us have been here. It has been a long, long wait, and so many names have passed in the meantime... yet you persevered, offering nothing but your very best, and here you are. I am so proud of you, J.

Please take good care of yourself. We'll always keep a seat for you here. You'll be in my prayers tonight, and every night, until you're back with us fully recovered and smiling. An enormous hug, Phædriel ♥ tell me - 04:13, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The block of 172.191.43.75

From what is seen in the edit history of the vandal 172.191.43.75 (talk • contribs • WHOIS • RDNS • RBLs • block user • block log), I don't think that it's a shared proxy, even if it is an AOL IP. The user made multiple edits to his page, and I think the user may require a lengthier block. Ryulong 05:59, 2 July 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Get better and help please, with the article you keep deleting of mine

Firstly I wish you all the best with getting better, I know how bad a broken arm is-someone running into you and you stick out your arm!ouchy- I hope you get better and you'll be able to contribute to Wikipedia 3 times the amount you are now!!

I need your help a little bit, after speaking to wikibot, he told me to contact you, I can understand why you have been deleting my article (2-4-2), I am very new to editing wikipedia-been reading for year and tried to start a new article that has been getting some publicity, due to their new Television series thats coming up, they have had hits in japan etc, but I can understand you getting rid, by thinking its some self promotion but they are getting quite big in britian and about to shoot to international fame as well, so I thought Ill get the ball rolling when I heard a radio interview-and seeing them in Marie Claire (magazine). I have nothing to do with the band, just was eager to write my first real post. If you have anydoubt please visit http://www.greyologyinc.com/artists.php?id=1 to see about them-I am sorry for the understanding I hope you will reinstate the article.Horfsby 08:56, 2 July 2006 (UTC)horfsby

I do not think you have read the article at all, or done any research on it to show that they are a band, just like the ska band, which I have also heard, just because it is not american and famous like the beatles people still want to read up about bands. THINK BEFORE YOU delete, on advice I am putting the article up again.Horfsby 08:55, 3 July 2006 (UTC)horfsby

Thank you for reverting vandalism in my userspace. I just noticed that- these page moves don't appear on my watchlist. Incidentally, congratulations on your RfA, hope there are no hard feeling over my failure to support. CanadianCaesar Et tu, Brute? 23:21, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sysop actions

Hi, hope you're feeling better soon. Congratulations on your promotion to sysop. Two things:

  • According to WP:BP, you should never block yourself for testing purposes.
  • I noticed that you speedied Skippy The Fridge as an A7. Unlike many of the other criteria, it's often not immediately obvious just by looking at the article whether it meets the criterion or not. So, it's especially important to read the article before speedying something under that criterion. In this case, the article claimed that they were "one of the finest ska bands of all time", which is an assertion of notability. I've restored the article.

No harm done in either case, just wanted to let you know. Cheers, JYolkowski // talk 00:39, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Upholding the electric fence.

After going to report User:Wiki-star, was going to follow it up with a 3RR report on KojiDude to uphold the electric fence, but I noticed you already did. Here's my compliments to the new admin for this. Kevin_b_er 04:30, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

  1. Frequent wikibreaks
  2. Multiple RFA attempts (although you just passed yours :P)
  3. Wikipedians in Florida
  4. Time on Wikipedia (although I gotcha by a 1 month exactly :D)

Hmm..a twin. :) — The King of Kings 05:45 July 03 '06

[edit] Try to defend your blocking me

I did not have 4 reverts in a 24 hour period, and yet you blocked me. Do you get to ban people for WP:2RR while everybody else can only do WP:3RR? I believe you are abusing your power. How do I report you for this? Nokilli 07:47, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for Supporting my RfA!

Thanks for supporting my RfA, which passed by a margin of 54/6/1. Sorry for the tardy "thanks," but between the World Cup, and hand-typing each of these, it has taken a while to say the least. If you ever see me doing something as admin that I'm not supposed to be doing, don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Thanks again, Ian Manka Talk to me! 18:20, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] HRE

Just read your edit summary on HRE's RfA and just thought I let you know that although I am absolutely certain you did not intend it to sound unsympathetic... If this in fact isn't someone playing a sick joke, and HRE has been killed then your removal of support and comment "this dead thing gets sorted out" could come off in rather poor taste to the more sensitive users. Just thought I'd make you aware but if you take another look and disagree, (as I may be well off base) then pls disregard. Thanks - Glen 00:09, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hi, you've blocked me

Hello, you've blocked me from editing and I'm currently working on expanding an article on Barry University. I mean no harm and I do have citations, please let me know what I have to fix so that we can resolve this issue as promptly as possible.

I would like to contribute to the Barry University article as it's a stump and it merits expansion. I'm new to editing, so please bare with me while I try to follow the rules that i've unknowingly broken.

I look forward to your response. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Jutland86 (talk • contribs).

[edit] Brainbug

Hi, I was wondering why you deleted the Brainbug stub. - Cybergoth 16:59, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

I deleted it because it had no claim to notablity via A7. Thanks Jaranda wat's sup 18:36, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

I see. I did not intend to create a vanity stub. I think the band is notable for a few reasons:

  1. There was a request for this article,
  2. The band is noteworthy for contributing music to a couple of movies (including A Night at the Roxbury although the track did not make it on the soundtrack album), and television commercial (for Nissan apparently), and
  3. It is a fairly popular band.

Would you consider re-instating the stub and letting myself or others work on it? - Cybergoth 21:13, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

I restored it. Thanks Jaranda wat's sup 23:19, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks! - Cybergoth 18:57, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Article you deleted

Why would you delete the Mike Jones article? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 64.230.52.61 (talk • contribs) 01:29, July 5, 2006 (UTC)

Probably to remove personal information, judging by the delete summary. Kevin_b_er 01:31, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

Ya, well I put a line from one of his song in the article. Mike Jones gives out his phone number on his album Who is Mike Jones?. I still do not understand the page would be deleted.

Several versions had real phone numbers, I couldn't remove all though as this is to time consuming, clicking 1,200 revertions. Jaranda wat's sup 01:48, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hi

Regardin you speedy deleting this. I would like to argue that it is not a copyvio in the comon sense, since it is not in article space. In other words, if that text would have been in a talk page or my article space, nobody would have deleted it. I further argue that it is no more of a copyvio than the Google cache of the same. Would google have chaced it if doing so was a copyvio? The aim of that is not to claim ownership, just to make a copy of the information so it won't get lost, since it is at risk of geting lost, considering that the main article of that is deleted, hence why i reference the google cach. What is you respons, don't you agree that a copy in non-article space is fine and actualy fair use? If the problem is that the copy is linked to, then we could un-link it. I mean, would you have deleted the copy if it was in a talk page sub-space? Peace--Striver 15:04, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

Hmm articles are not fair use and it's a copyvio, even if it's in a talk page or your subpage. Better off to copy it somewhere else. Thanks Jaranda wat's sup 23:37, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

Hey -- you unblocked this account which was formerly blocked as an open proxy. Did you find out for sure the proxy is no longer there? If so, you should remove the {{unblock}} and the proxy block notice from the user talk page (and say what you did to check). If not, we should probably reblock until we can confirm.

[edit] Deletion

Hi, thanks for deleting my Guywonder page. I fail to see how it is classed as 'nonsense' when you have such articles as The Perry Bible Fellowship on wikipedia as well. As I stated, Guywonder is in the process of being displayed online and already has over 30 readers of the comic strip.

How is that nonsense?

[edit] Late Night Killers: Part 2

Jaranda, I think I might have made a mistake in asking for {deletedpage}. The author came back and posting information to claim notability for the group. Could you take a look at it and post your opinion at the bottom of that talk page? It looks like that article may have to be restored.

As the admin. involved now, may I ask that some type of RfC be filed now, seeing that his edits were so violent - I listed detailed on his user talk page here. NOVO-REI 20:20, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
I read your comment, but I think it should be noted that according to his own confession he had over 20 sockpuppets as the and according to this pages history, over 43 sockpuppets to John Reid, not including his talk and auxiliary pages. Also, it should be noted that much of his vandalism probably went without notice, as he was considered a good user. But that is over 60 sockpuppets that he confessed to. Something should be done. NOVO-REI 21:18, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Resent Speedy deletion

Please restore the Dennis Detwiller page you recently deleted as seen here. No warning was placed on my—the creator's—talk page, nor was a reasonable amount of time given for a {{hangon}} to contest the {{db-bio}} placed on the page. To start, I am not Mr. Detwiller, nor do I know him, so it is not a vanity page. The only potentialy valid reason for the deletion could be you felt that the article, as it was at time of deletion, did not assert Mr. Detwiller's notability well enough. The article was created as a stub with the express purpose of expantion, and checking the What links here link from the page would have revealed a number of links to that page, one of note being a Requested articles page and the other being the Origins Award winner roleplaying game Delta Green.

[edit] Indefinite block of MP123

Jorge, would you please shorten the block of User:MP123 (aka User:Microphon200 and User:CubsFan2006) to something reasonable, like a week or a month? Extraordinarily long blocks for this type of user tend to have the opposite effect than intended, if you know what I mean. ×Meegs 03:05, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

I was the one who reviewed the unblock request of the blocked user. I say that the user should be indef blocked still. One, Jimbo has asked for users who keep on breaking copyright rules, despite many warnings, to be blocked. These guys only hurt the project. Two, he has been told many times to stop what he has been doing. Three, he has socks, so this is a perfect reason we have to block him indef. User:Zscout370 (Return Fire) 03:32, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
That user has been giving several last chances in 3 different accounts though but keeps on uploading copyvio images, I see no point in blocking for a week. Thanks Jaranda wat's sup 03:49, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
I have followed this user for months [4] and was the first to block them. This user is not hostile to the project, and has made many good edits throughout their time here. Further, in the past they have (very slowly) responded to direction and warnings by at least moving to different types of copyright violation. I am as frustrated with them as anyone, but telling them to leave and never come back is not appropriate, and, more importantly, will not work.
An Indefinite block will, in the worst case, turn a good-faith editor into an enemy. More likely though, and this is what I was trying to avoid spilling, it will drive them to sockpuppetry. If it does, their uploads become much harder to keep track of, and our next message to them will start from square one, "{{welcome}}, please do not do that."
I propose either reducing their block to a few weeks, or offering to unblock them on the condition that they abandon image work altogether. In either case, I'd like to keep them engaged and in our sight. ×Meegs 04:08, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
Denied. User:Zscout370 (Return Fire) 04:43, 8 July 2006 (UTC)I was told a two week block was given. Ok, but this user is on a very short leash with me. User:Zscout370 (Return Fire) 04:46, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

What does it mean for a user to add the template "vandal" with my username? What should I do about it? e.g. See Duncharris Dunc|☺ trying to delete the Just-so story page. He repeatedly reverted major additions I had added due to his strong POV against any criticism of evolution. I put the material on the discussion page [[5]]. On the delete page, viewers have voted 11:4 to keep it. See: [[6]] I do not believe I have acted as a vandal. If anything, Dunc|☺ has repeatedly reverted without discussion or moved material for deletion that he does not like. PS thanks for managing the 3RR block. I needed the lesson.)

[edit] Birth & XHTML

Hello. Why not write your birth date on your userpage? Furthermore, your userpage does not look good in all browsers (among them Konqueror, Firefox), i don't think the rendered XHTML Standard results in the look you've expected. (or something like that wtf) --Ysangkok 09:10, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] AfD closure

Ref: your closure of the Word bookstore. My understanding is that Wikipedia:Consensus is normally from about 60% to over 80%. This discussion had 7 keep votes, 4 delete votes plus nom = 5 delete votes - 7: 5 is less than 60% (58.3% recurring)- no concensus - I don't think rounding up was appropriate - 60% is the lower limit - might make no difference to the outcome, makes a difference to how the outcome is recorded. --A Y Arktos\talk 10:05, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
