GAC

Hi, you certainly don't need my approval. But if you're looking for some reassurance of my support, then I am happy to give it. Good luck and happy editing! —Moondyne 13:48, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

Great, I enjoyed it when I was reviewing them a few weeks back, thanks a lot. The Sunshine Man 13:52, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

Advice...

Could you give me some advice?
You see, approximately two months ago, I put in an RFA, viewable here. It was unsuccessful. Now, I've gained much more experience, and I was thinking or putting in a second RFA. Do you think I should? If you could, please leave your answer on my talk page. Thanks! -Billy²²⁷, ^{review my account!! talk contribs sndbx usbx} 20:01, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

N Replied on your talk page as requested Hello, I strongly object to you going for RfA again, you say your other RfA was 2 months ago, it only ended about 15 days ago, I dont think you are ready for adminship yet, if I may - I would like to make a few suggestions for improvements:

1. Ready WP:CANVAS, you have been canvassing user talk pages asking for advice about whether you should go for RfA, this is generally frowned upon.
2. Help with maintenance and cleaning up articles and not just RC patrolling, yes this is vital to Wikipedias functioning but may users including myself see this as important and knowing how to do other things other than vandalism reverting.
3. May I ask why you made this edit to an article?
4. For an article as small as this which you tagged as unreferenced seems a little inappropriate, I think it would have been better if you'd actually referenced the article, its information is very minimal so this wouldn't take long.
5. Shorten down your sig, it is currently very long — is it really neccessary to have links to your userbox page and sandbox page in it, you could always link to them from your userpage.
6. Refrain from always asking users to reply on your talk page, many users like myself tend to reply on my talk page and find it rather annoying, sometimes you have to be a bit flexible and abide by other users talk page rules, if it says that comments will be replied to on that page, please dont ask them to reply on your talk page.

So please, do not attempt RfA until at least July 2007, I think you need more experience and definitely a higher edit count, I'd suggest at least 3000 with 1500-2000 to the main article space and some good talk/user talk/wikipedia talk communication edits. Kindest Regards

Thank you VERY much for your excellent suggestions. I'll be sure to follow your advice. Thanks again! -Billy²²⁷{{SUBST:^{review me! talk contribs}}} 21:07, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

You're very welcome! I definitely think you could be an admin in the future with some improvements. Also your RfA was definitely not two months ago, you wrote your statement at 17:13 9 May [2007]] and it was withdrew by an admin at approx 23:25 May 10, 2007, also your sig seems to be displaying incorrectly - if you need a hand just give me a shout. Good luck! The Sunshine Man 21:11, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

Y Done If you ever need any more reviews, just let me know.....

Your Review of Emmett Watson article

Thanks so much for reviewing and providing feedback for the article Emmett Watson. I'm not sure how to resolve the issue with the photograph--I emailed the photo editor at the Seattle PI to request a photo (and permission to use them) and he emailed me two photos along with permission to use them on Wikipedia. I still have that email. Can you let me know how I should proceeed? Thanks, --DHLister | Talk 22:06, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

Well, images should provide links to where they came from so I think you should mention in the source:

1. That permission has been given for usage in Wikipedia.
2. A link to the website its from so if anyone wanted to check they could.

I think that it could definitely pass as a GA once the sub-sections have been made and once the reference section is cleaned up, then the image is almost there, it just needs a few minor adjustments, please feel free to renominate it when uyou think its been brought up to standard, or ask me if you wish and I'll do it. Kindest Regards The Sunshine Man 10:02, 28 May 2007 (UTC)

Thank you, so much!

Beautiful as this sunshine is, it cannot compare to you, dear Sunshine Man!

My dearest Sunshine Man, I have no words to tell you how deeply your wonderful gift touched me, to the point that my eyes got a little wet. I don't think I deserve the title you've so graciously and kindly bestowed upon me, but in moments like this, it's best not to say anything but let the heart speak. You opened up yours to me, so it's only fair that I tell you, thank you, so much! This is the kind of gestures that I never, ever forget nor let go. Know that, although we had interacted before in a very pleasant manner, today, a new friendship has been born. You truly are a ray of wonderful sunshine. Love, Phaedriel - 16:24, 28 May 2007 (UTC)

Iqu

It was a link to tablighi jamaat..because Thabligh is how it is pronounced not tabligh which is how it is in wikipedia..so if somebody searches for thabligh he/she will miss it ... Iqu 18:33, 28 May 2007 (UTC)

Whaddya mean?--Roxas 22:23, 28 May 2007 (UTC)(I'm not kidding)(Nothing uncivil)

I mean comments like this which you left on a user talk page, I strongly suggest you read WP:CIVIL and WP:AGF. Kindest Regards — The Sunshine Man 09:25, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

re: Is it Necessary?

Wha? Didn't see that coming. I probably subconsciously do it instead of using bold (or italic) text, not thinking that it's annoying anyone. Could you provide an example (preferably on my talk page)? As for the GA stuff, I apologise for this, it was probably just due to lazyness. Have a nice day! G1ggy! 23:15, 28 May 2007 (UTC)

Y Done Replied on your talk page as requested. The Sunshine Man 09:37, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

Y Done Okey dokey, I'll take it on board. Thanks. G1ggy! 23:57, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

OK, your welcome! Its difficult with the oldid at first but once you've done it a couple of times, you'll find it really easy. Have a great day! The Sunshine Man 09:54, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

Issues with Image:BerrySeal.svg

Sorry I was not able to fill my fair use rational in the < 2 minutes after uploading. I have done so now and hope this is satisfactory. If so I will move "warnings" from my talk page. Jerm 19:12, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

Template:Good Yes, thats perfect, however under the fair use rationale you have a small amount of text showing which pages the image links to, this automatically added the Wikimedia software so you can remove that and the automatic one will update its self accordingly, thanks for your image uploads! The Sunshine Man 19:24, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

Signatures

Yes, I know. I use twinkle and the script leaves a duplicate signature in warnings. I discovered this error, but I keep forgetting to remove the extra four tildes. I have since left a note in the TW talk page. By the way, there's an unclosed font code in your talk page instructions. :-) Cheers, Anas ^talk? 15:52, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

I love your new user page. I noticed the changes earlier today, and I think it is one of the neatest I've ever seen. On the other hand, I have to be honest with you, I liked your old blue signature much more than this one. —Anas ^talk? 18:01, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

Metcall GAC

Would you be willing to take a second look at Metcall — I've greatly expanded the "how the system works" section in response to the issues you raised.

I agree that it's a little heavy on staff roles (it originally began as an article on the job rather than the place, as part of a series on law enforcement support staff, before I realised that it needed an article on the place to make sense, and it made no sense keeping the job and the place as separate articles). Part of the problem was caused by the fact that the staff section had separate subsections relating to each job, making it appear longer than it actually is.

In all honesty, I think it's now expanded as far as it can go. As a very secretive program, there's not a lot of press coverage of it other than reprinted press releases which I've tried to avoid as non-neutral — if you follow the references, you'll see that most of the sources seem to have been dragged out grudgingly under the Freedom of Information Act. I absolutely agree about the lack of pictures, but unfortunately even the addresses of the other two centres are secret, I'm unable to find any public domain photographs of the inside of the buildings, and I don't see any useful purpose in repeat photos of the one rather nondescript building whose address is in the public domain (quite aside from the fact that "hanging round outside secret security installation taking photos" probably isn't good for anyone's health). If you've any suggestions as to how to improve it, I'd welcome them — I think it's a genuinely useful article given the lack of coverage elsewhere. (It isn't original research, but it does cobble together a lot of snippets that as far as I'm aware aren't collected anywhere else, to put together a picture of what the program is supposed to be doing and where it's succeeding/failing in doing so.) — iridescenti (talk to me!) 16:38, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

Doing... I'm currently busy.... I'll take a look at it in a few hours, if you dont mind that is.... The Sunshine Man 16:41, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks - no rush at all! Until today it was (virtually) untouched since January — iridescenti (talk to me!) 16:49, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for taking another look! As I say, I doubt it will go further unless/until a newspaper does a story on the place, but (aside from the sprawling A1 road (London)) it's probably the article I invested most time in getting right — iridescenti (talk to me!) 20:52, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

Template:Correct Thanks for leaving this message, I forget to tell you on this page! If you ever need any more good article reviews just leave me a message. Kindest Regards — The Sunshine Man 20:55, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

thanks for adopting me. i'm not a total newbie, but i do have some questions.

a. Do you actually have to do something to be part of a wikiproject? or do you just edit whatever is on that wikiproject page?

b. What is the difference between a wiki project and a portal? is someone assigned to edit the portal to change all the stuff that is different each day (such as featured image) or does it somehow do it automatically?

❤ ɱӑԀסԀÏƏ₭Ⓐ†Ǝ ✭ | User_talk:Maddiekate 22:53, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

Cool, thanks. Some of your answers to my vandalism test didn't seem right to me - I'll explain on greater detail there - which is why I think that a few more months might do you good. Anyway, I'd rather you had an easy time of it in a few months than a nerve-wracking RFA now, I like you too much to see you go through that! :) Take care, Riana ⁂ 12:21, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

Tompkins Square Park Police Riot - Thank you

I really appreciate the note and the striking out. I was surprised by the strong oppose and the comment. I had tried to write the Tompkins riot article as NPOV as possible, so I was disheartened when the first comment was what you had wrote. It was a challenging historical episode to write, but one that had yet to be documented thoroughly. I wrote it a year ago, and time and Wikipedia's evolved standards have rendered some of the things I did with it (legal citation, single source) dated, but back then this was possibly one of the more heavily sourced articles. I think the topic, that the police (by their own admission) were responsible for a riot rubs some people the wrong way. My own prejudice writing the article was that I had no sympathy for the goals of the protesters (to allow the debauchery and hijacking of the park to continue) and no sympathy for the police response (which was caused by poor leadership, a hot summer, and New York City still in the midst of governing chaos). In the year since I wrote that, I've grown and matured a lot in how I edit and my writing style on Wikipedia. So, I really appreciate your actions today. It made me feel good. Best to you, and keep up the excellent work. --David Shankbone 13:54, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

Thanks

My RFA

You supported my candidacy in my recently completed request for adminship. The debated ended 40/4/1 and I'm now an administrator. I'd just like to say thanks for taking the time to consider me, and thanks for the confidence in me. I hope your confidence in me proves to be justified. Regards, WilyD

I've replied on your talk page, Congratulations! The Sunshine Man 14:20, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

Coaching

I have just noticed you have this coaching section provided on part of your userpage. What is that all about? Francisco Tevez 15:30, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

Well, Admin coaching is when a user pairs up with a coach(es) who is a Wikipedia administrator and they help them along the way if the "coachee" wants to be an admin or would like to learn, they ask questions and test their knowledge of policy and then give them constructive feedback and suggest areas to improve, for more info you can see Wikipedia:Admin coaching.

Excellent close. Consensus was clearly against my proposal. --Tony Sidaway 23:59, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

Question about Images.

I am going through the Digimon images and was wondering if I was adding the FUR correctly, I have currently only done three as I neglected to read the whole deletion comment, or more specifically, the do not remove this message part. The images I have done are Goldramon, Allomon and AeroVeedramon. Would you please check them. trainra 03:42, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

Template:Not correct Sorry — I dont really understand what you mean by this, maybe you could ask someone else, I'm even unsure what FUR is, sorry again. Regards --The Sunshine Man 13:45, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

WP:FURG, fair use rationale. I found about about this term because of the current Betacommand overhaul. -N 14:28, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

Doing... Oh, fair use rationle templates, you'll have to provide links to the images which you uploaded. The Sunshine Man 14:30, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

The images were [1], [2] and [3]. I didn't upload them though, I am just trying to stop them getting deleted. Sorry for confusing you, thank you very much. trainra 07:18, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

Usernames

It doesn't matter who reports usernames. Secretlondon 15:27, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

Please leave new comments under a new section header to avoid confusion, I think it would be considered courteous not to remove a report left by another user and report exactly the same username at WP:UFA and move the original reporters comments to the bottom so it looks like you made the report and that the person who really made the report doesn't look like they just added extra info. The Sunshine Man 15:30, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

{{UK-theatre-stub}}

Hi - I see you have recently created one or more new stub types. As it states at Wikipedia:Stub, at the top of most stub categories, and in many other places on Wikipedia, it is recommended that new stub types are proposed prior to creation at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals, in order to check whether the new stub type is already covered by existing stub types, whether it is named according to stub naming guidelines, whether it is otherwise correctly formatted, whether it reaches the standard threshold for creation of a new stub type, and whether it crosses existing stub type hierarchies. Your new stub type is currently listed at WP:WSS/D - please feel free to make any comments there as to any rationale for this stub type. And please, in future, consider proposing new stub types first! Grutness...wha? 02:32, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

About the sandbox...

Hi there! As you can see here, I did not remove the header from the sandbox. It had already been removed by someone else and in fact I wasn't aware that the sandbox was supposed to have a header, so I simply erased something another user had written and left the page blank :P Teo64x 19:15, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

TfD nomination of Template:Bcratbacklog

Template:Bcratbacklog has been nominated for deletion. You are invited to comment on the discussion at the template's entry on the Templates for Deletion page. Thank you. Wikihermit ^{(Talk • HermesBot)} 02:27, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

Re: (User talk:ais523) TfD's

I deliberately didn't noinclude the {{tfd-inline}} tag. The notification that the template is up for TfD is needed to alert people who use the template that it's due to be deleted (much like putting {{subst:afd}} on an article). There are two TfD tags available precisely for this reason (one with block formatting ({{tfd}}) and one with inline formatting {{tfd-inline}}), so the tag can be added without unduly disrupting formatting. --ais523 13:44, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

Yes, but you should noinclude this because then it was inclusing the TfD deletion tag across several AfD pages and other pages, it does say at the top of the TfD page to noinclude it. Regards --The Sunshine Man 14:50, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

Only if the template's meant to be substed, which this one wasn't (and then only because removing the TfD notice from the substed versions would be a pain). The inclusion of the deletion notice into the AfD pages where the template is used was deliberate, as I've explained above. --ais523 15:56, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

Yes, but this template was not meant to be substituted, even if it was meant to be subst'ed, the TfD tag would still have to be noincluded, you also forgot to add it to {{administrator}} when you nominate that for deletion. Regards --The Sunshine Man 15:59, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

I think you may have misread my last comment; neither template was meant to be substed, so I didn't noinclude the TfD notice, on either {{administrator}} or {{good}} etc.. --ais523 16:16, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

Yes and another user had to add the noinclude tag because it made thousands of admin userpages go wrong. The Sunshine Man 16:17, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

Broadwater Farm

If you're still available for WP:GA/Rs, could you take a look over Broadwater Farm and see if you think it'll pass or if not, what changes you think ought to be made? It's bugged me for at least a year that it redirected to Riot - it might be what the area's best known for, but it always seemed as silly to me as redirecting Hiroshima to Atomic bomb or David Beckham to Football. What I intended to be a short stub to fill the gap has somehow sprawled into IMO possibly the best article I've yet written. Incidentally, nominating it as a GAC within 2 minutes of creation isn't quite as arrogant as it looks - it's been sitting in userspace for some time being tweaked and poked so I'm more familiar with it that that time-lag would suggest — iridescenti (talk to me!) 16:14, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the co-nom etc. I think i needed more time to think about things and i was wondering if my one was a bit premature. I suppose i'm not experienced enough but there were other factors. Besides, the way thinks were going, consensus would not have been reached. Thanks anyway. Simply south 18:39, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

Just dropping by to say "thank you" for supporting me in my recent my RfA. I passed the vote, and am now an admin. It will take me some getting used to with the new tools, but I thank you again for the trust. Have a good one, and, as always, happy editing! Jmlk17 05:09, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

My RfA

Dear Qst, thanks for your support in my recent RfA, it was, however, unsuccessful. I am not the type of editor to be disheartened by such a result, and have gained much experience. If you have anything to contribute by way of improvements or comments, please don’t hesitate to tell me.

I will run again. Until then, Cheers, Dfrg.msc 07:57, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
