[edit] VFD

You nominated Sam Toupin for deletion. I agree. There were two minor improvements for next time - the first necessary, the second desirable. Both are covered in the first or second part of Template:VfDFooter.

1. Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Sam Toupin needs a heading of the form ===[[Sam Toupin]]===. This will make it appear correctly in the VFD list. I have fixed this in this case.
2. When you included it in the VFD list you made the edit summary added Sam Toupin. Putting [[Sam Toupin]] or added [[Sam Toupin]] would have been slightly more helpful so people can see the links from the page history.

But welcome anyway. --Henrygb 21:52, 5 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Ok, thanks for agreeing and helping :) --Phroziac 21:54, 5 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] User page

Hi, Phroziac! I've made some changes to your User page. Although I probably haven't fulfilled your "ultimate dream" of perfection, I hope you like the results. Feel free to leave a note at my talk page if you don't like the colors or such. :-) Sango123 20:07, Jun 13, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Collaboration of the week

I'm dropping you a note to let you know that The Seventies, which you voted on, became a Collaboration of the Week! You are highly encouraged to contribute whatever you can to the topic! Mike H 01:28, Jun 20, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Wikistress

Hello Phroziac. I see you got a lot of wikistress. May I ask why? I do hope you don't leave wikipedia. Every time we lose a competent wikipedian, the idiot ratio gets a bit higher :-( Redwolf24 06:34, 13 July 2005 (UTC)

It's actually from my parents mostly, some from those trolls here. I won't be leaving, I like it here. I also forgot to change the stress level back down, oops. It hasn't been that high in a few days.Wikistress lag? :) --Phroziac (talk) 15:11, 13 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks

Thanks for voting in my RfA; I promise I'll wield my sacred mop with care. If you ever need me for anything, you know where to find me. Thanks again! -- Essjay · Talk 15:21, July 20, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Welcoming

It's good to Welcome new Users, but before you do, check their contributions. The Sorting Hat (talk · contribs), for example, was here only to attack and vandalise (one in a long line of accounts opened by the same person for the same reason). --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 22:10, 20 July 2005 (UTC)

Oops! I'll be more careful. Thanks for the comment :) --Phroziac (talk) 22:18, 20 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] My RFA

Just so you know, there's only one date, there (x/x/x) is for the vote tally, not the date. I had a good chuckle though ;-). Sasquatch′↔Talk↔Contributions 04:01, July 21, 2005 (UTC)

rofl, I thought you were edit conflicting me! --Phroziac (talk) 04:04, 21 July 2005 (UTC)

haha, yea, It'd be really ironic if I 3RR'd my own RFA. O the cruel irony. But again, see how well talking works? lol. Sasquatch′↔Talk↔Contributions 04:23, July 21, 2005 (UTC)

By edit conflict I meant editing it while I was editing it. But, yeah, :p --Phroziac (talk) 04:27, 21 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Post-promotion message

Thanks again for you nomination! As you may have observed, I got enough support votes and Raul654 promoted me =). I promise I will nominate you in a couple of months and in celebration of my new powers, I have decided to delete your user page! Just kidding of course =) , but thanks again and happy editing! Sasquatch′↔T↔C 00:29, July 29, 2005 (UTC)

Sweet! :D --Phroziac (talk) 01:04, 29 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Willy on Wheels

Hi, when you see any variation of User:Willy on Wheels, there is no need to send them polite test-messages. Just report them straight to WP:VIP, or inform an administrator, and that account will be blocked instantly. WoW uses a javascript to carry out vandalism very quickly, and has therefore been hardbanned. Sjakkalle (Check!) 14:27, 21 July 2005 (UTC)

Ok, will do! --Phroziac (talk) 14:35, 21 July 2005 (UTC)

Hi. Just so you know, and I don't really want to bring up a long discussion on WP:VIP, I received an email from Rn71989 last night. It said:

@_@

Willy on Wheels has been reborn.

Don't trust vandals. Cheers, smoddy 09:20, 22 July 2005 (UTC)

• shrug*. And yeah, that page is HUGE :p --Phroziac (talk) 13:12, 22 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Rfa

Thanks very much for fixing my mistake. Best wishes, Meelar (talk) 18:30, July 23, 2005 (UTC)

You're welcome :) --Phroziac (talk) 18:36, 23 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Well.

I really couldn't pass up the chance to say hello to someone who votes for admin nominations with "extreme lesbian support." Carry on! · Katefan0^(scribble) 04:05, July 30, 2005 (UTC)

heh. Hi, and thanks. :) --Phroziac (talk) 04:15, 30 July 2005 (UTC)

I've been meaning to ask you for a while what that means. XD Oh, and I don't think I ever got a chance to thank you for properly welcoming me to the Wikipedia community. So, thank you! Ryan 09:39, July 30, 2005 (UTC)

Meh, I have no idea. Someone voted Extreme lesbian keep (or was it delete? i don't remember!) on the 6th vfd attempt of the GNAA. So, I kinda copied them. --Phroziac (talk) 15:27, 30 July 2005 (UTC)

GNAA is unique in that it is the only article that goes from being nominated for deletion to being nominated for featured article. :P Ryan 00:15, July 31, 2005 (UTC)

heh. You mean going from being nominated for deletion for the sixth time to being nominated for featured article.... :) --Phroziac (talk) 00:21, 31 July 2005 (UTC)

I endorse your reply with upmost extreme lesbian support! Ryan 00:23, July 31, 2005 (UTC)

mmmm lesbians.... -- Phroziac (talk) 00:24, 31 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Many thanks

Thank you for your vote of support on my recent RfA. I was quite surprised by the amount of support I received, and wish to extend my thanks to you for taking the time to support my nomination for adminship. -- Longhair | Talk 12:01, 1 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Wrong page

Hi, I noticed you've created User:Phroziac/Monobook.js - thanks for trying this out! It should be at User:Phroziac/monobook.js, or I don't think it'll work. Lupin 19:40, 3 August 2005 (UTC)

Haha! Oops! I even asked which it should be on IRC, thinking that was it. But i thought i used the lowercase one, which I was told I was supposed to use. I moved it, hopefully it will work! --Phroziac (talk) 19:46, 3 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] kmccoy's RFA

Hey, Phroziac,

Your extreme lesbian support on my RFA was both confusing and pleasing. Either way, it was appreciated. :) kmccoy (talk) 05:54, 4 August 2005 (UTC)

You're welcome, Kevin. :) You better wield the sacred mop well! And I'm going to hurt you if you don't hold it right! --Phroziac (talk)

[edit] Ed Poors RfAr

I think it is good that you started the RfAr against Ed Poor, although I think it is hoplessly doomed. I'm staying out of it since my meager RfC got blasted into smithereens and more competent people should take over. Good luck! gkhan 06:16, August 4, 2005 (UTC)

Thanks, and, ok. I don't know about hopelessly doomed, but I can see Ed won't get unanimously voted against. --Phroziac (talk) 13:05, 4 August 2005 (UTC)

I have signed the RfAr myself and made some very minor changes to wording. Since the changes were to the section you signed, I am bringing them to your attention so that you may remove them if you feel they change the meaning of the statement in such a way that it no longer reflects your views. The Uninvited Co., Inc. 18:59, 4 August 2005 (UTC)

Fred Bauder has accepted the arbitration case. Rob Church 19:10, 4 August 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for signing the offer to talk this out. It's getting a bit late for me in New York City; would tomorrow be better? Uncle Ed 02:26, August 5, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Purdy

What a pretty purple box! *steals* Ryan 10:47, August 5, 2005 (UTC)

Whoa! That's quite a bit of Wikistress! Take it easy. Stress = red thermometer goes boom = big mess = :O Ryan 16:16, August 5, 2005 (UTC)

Er... just so you know. It's not a good thing if you surpass four, kthx. Ryan 16:26, August 5, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Simple english/conlang?

Hey, I never noticed it before, when the discussion for your wiki killer proposal was going on, but, you labeled simple english as a conlang. Why do you consider it a conlang? I just consider it well...simple english... --Phroziac (talk) 19:24, 5 August 2005 (UTC)

From Basic English:

Basic English is a simplified English language with a small number of words created by Charles Kay Ogden and described in his book Basic English: A General Introduction with Rules and Grammar (1930).

Since the Simple English Wikipedia is more or less based on Basic English, I think it is artificial. Basic English was not developed in somewhere by some people. It was developed by, in fact, one linguist. I know each contributor do have his/her way to simplify English. Some may not even know anything about Basic English or other comparable linguistic efforts, they just learn from others and use their common sense. I think the Simple English Wikipedia would not be very "artificial" if there are many such common sense writers. -- Toytoy 23:02, August 5, 2005 (UTC)

Hmmm, ok, but I still just consider it uh...english without big words like dichloridofluoromethane ;) --Phroziac (talk) 01:11, 6 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] thanks for the intro

A few days ago you updated my discussion page. Thanks of the welcome, and good luck in your racing! Gabrill

[edit] RC Freek

I'm an Associated/Traxxas man myself. I used to have a XXT and a XXXT, alongside my T3, but parts availability swayed me to the A-Team. I really didn't see much difference between them, but it's fun to harrass the "other" team. 8)

My current stable includes AE RC10GT w/ OS .12 CVR, AE T3 w/ Novak SS BL, Traxxas Revo (Stock), 2 Traxxas Stampedes (one stock and one with Duratrax 13 turn ESC)

[edit] Barnstar

I am giving you this barnstar to let you know that I too feel your Wikistress. Take care, D. J. Bracey (talk) 01:10, 7 August 2005 (UTC)

You're welcome. I believe everyone here deserves those stars for their work. D. J. Bracey (talk) 01:35, 7 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks!

Hey, thanks much for stopping by my talk page! I really appreciate the support...and I'm diggin' on the R/C wiki. The possibilities are limitless! I can think of a few ideas for some really great articles there. - Lucky 6.9 17:23, 10 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] IRC Mediation Conference 3

With regard to the third (and hopefully final) mediation conference relating to the Ed Poor case, would you please visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:NicholasTurnbull/Mediation_IRC#Scheduling and indicate when you will not be available at the usual time for the forthcoming week. I am hoping to propose a time within the next few days.

I will also draw up an agenda for this meeting as soon as possible, which will be on the same page, and as for the previous meeting's agenda, I encourage editing in true wiki-style.

If you have any concerns, please don't hesiate to drop me a note. Rob Church ^Talk

[edit] Gabrill

I did, in fact, see it. But I'm not sure of the motives or affiliations of WikiCities.com.
