[edit] Californication

Sounds good. But the image has to be a free one, so I assume the one of the Chili Peppers' at Pinkpop will be chosen instead. NSR77 TC 19:00, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

Awwww. Bummer. NSR77 TC 18:29, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] FINSAS

Thanks for chipping in on FINSAS. Arunram (talk) 05:36, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

No problem. naerii - talk 18:15, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Monobook unprotection

Done; welcome back. -- Avi (talk) 13:36, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] RFA/DHMO 3

Rudget has reverted you, accurately pointing out that rather than remove votes and comments, you should strike them. :) Regards, LaraLove 17:07, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

I indented it as an interim measure per your stated intention in the edit summary. Feel free to fix up as appropriate. Orderinchaos 17:26, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
Whatever floats people's boats. :) naerii - talk 20:05, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Lose yourself in the music, the moment, you own it...

Hey there. I wanted to thank you for your participation in my recent RFA. I must admit, I was a little confused when you changed from oppose to support with that Eminem lyric as an edit summary. Quite curious what it was that made you change your mind! Anyhow, I've posted an in-depth RFA analysis that touched on the main-space contribution issue and noted how I plan to improve on that. Your comments are welcome. P.S., there's some templated thank-spam below. cheers, xenocidic (talk) 03:00, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

Not embarrassing at all - Eminem rocks! or raps... or something... Sorry, I didn't meant to make you out to seem crazy, I wrote it that way for comedic effect. =) (I can change it if you want) I must admit I did have a chuckle when I read it. at first I was like... wtf? until I realized where it was from. Still, I was rather confused - thanks for clearing that up for me. and I might take you up on that offer, though, my area of expertise... well,... it's been getting some scorn from the GA/FA review projects recently. as for addressing the opposes, I feel that they are the most important part of the RFA, they really need to be taken into account and you need to look at how you can improve for the betterment of the encyclopedia as a whole. anyways, thanks again. xenocidic (talk) 04:22, 4 June 2008 (UTC)


[edit] Curious

This has made me curious. Why is it then, that you participate, if you cannot trust anything a candidate says in the spotlight? — MaggotSyn 08:00, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Because there's (usually) a history of editing before they run for whatever position? Although I suppose people could (and probably, some do) spend their entire time on wiki being politically correct with the aim of becoming a sysop (some people really do have too much spare time on their hands). There's not much I can do about that. But I wouldn't change from oppose to support on the basis of something they said in response to a question at an RFA as any sensible person is going to respond with whatever they have to say to get support. It's what they do when they think no one's watching that is truly telling. naerii - talk 08:04, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
Thank you. And I didn't want to leave you with the impression that I was asking you to switch. — MaggotSyn 09:25, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] LOL!

I just wanted to drop a line to tell you how hard I'm laughing over the image on your user page. That is one of the most enjoyable images that I think I've seen in quite some time! With your permission, I'd like to include that on my page? Regards, --InDeBiz1 (talk) 03:53, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, I noticed that after I posted above and saw that it was a freely-licensed image. Thanks!  :) --InDeBiz1 (talk) 07:14, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] My RfA

Hello, Naerii, and thank you for your recent participation in my RfA, which was closed per WP:NOTNOW after reaching a vote tally of 5/15/2. While I am disappointed in the outcome, I understand that it - as well as the comments left by yourself and others - was in the best interests of Wikipedia at this time. I plan to take everything that was written to heart and improve myself here on Wikipedia with a goal of perhaps accepting a nomination again in the future, should someone choose to nominate me. As a way of gathering further feedback, I have created a page in my user space for other editors to leave comments about things that they might have observed during my RfA and to continue my "education process," as it may be considered. If you would like to contribute to that page, it may be found here. Again, thank you for participating and I appreciate your comments! --InDeBiz1 (talk) 18:12, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
