[edit] RFA

Thanks for your comment in my RfA. Although I would have preferred if it were on the support section, I fully understand your reasoning, and appreciate your comment. I have withdrawn my nomination however I look forward to coming back to RfA sometime down the road. Thanks again - Rjd0060 13:49, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

Thanks a lot. I really do appreciate it. You said I should get "more article writing experience". Could you expand on that a little? - Rjd0060 20:02, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

OK. That helps a lot. Thanks. - Rjd0060 22:48, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Admin Coaching

Hi, I saw your request for admin coaching. I think you're a very promising admin, so I'd like to admin coach you. If you accept, you can just reply to me so we can get started. bibliomaniac15 A straw poll on straw polls 21:55, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

My reply here
I've formally placed coaching on the page. Would you rather have it conducted by e-mail or on a subpage, or maybe both? bibliomaniac15 A straw poll on straw polls 00:06, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
My reply here
All right. I created User:Useight/Admin coaching and added some questions that I'd like for you to answer. bibliomaniac15 A straw poll on straw polls 00:47, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for the review!

Thanks! I just wanted to say on one thing. You mentioned of me thinking the cleanup tag was vandalism. I was not exactly sure because that user had a fair amount of warnings on his talk page. Any hoo, thanks for the review!Dacheatcode 01:03, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Hey!

Thank you for noticing my lack of edits. School, as predicted has been difficult. I can only wonder how you still get hundreds of edits. Mad skills, or easy classes? TheInfinityZero 03:40, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wording at RfA

Thanks for that - although my intention was to use the word to portray that the edits I linked to were "inadequate" or "inferior", I can understand how it could easily be implied to be an attack on the candidate's entire contribution list. I've amended me wording; thanks again. Cheers, Daniel 02:43, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hey

I actually felt like coming back! Yeah, SSB Brawl DOES have WiFi, as does GH3. You really should reconsider friend codes. So much is happening with WiFi on the Wii, its pretty much an advance. --Roxas (talk) 14:13, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sheboygan High School

I just saw that you had to delete the same bit of vadalism I saw earlier. Should we notify an Admin to the IP address that the vandalism appears to be coming from? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Folk smith (talk • contribs) 05:25, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your RFA

Since everything's quiet around RFA, I thought it would be a good time to nominate you and get more of the community going. Here's your RFA: Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Useight 3. Good luck! bibliomaniac15 01:04, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your RFA

Hi Useight. Having been the first to support at both of your previous RfA's I am delighted to see that it looks like third time lucky (hoping not to jinx it!). You'll be great as an admin, and I'm just gutted I could only come a lowly 11th in my support this time round!! Best wishes as ever, and (when) it passes please let me know if you need any help in the early days of mop wielding. Pedro :  Chat  16:15, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] This RfA

Hey, I wanted to commend you on the way that you handled this. Most SNOW-storm RfAs are just met with the typical lack of experience problem, but it was very non-BITEy, especially in contrast to the lovely comment by the user below you. Happy editing, J-ſtanTalkContribs 03:24, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

No problem. By the way, preemptive congratulations on your successful RfA! J-ſtanTalkContribs 04:10, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

Oops...didn't see that one coming. I fixed it along with the customary bit of wit. bibliomaniac15 21:42, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your RFA was successful

Congratulations, I have closed your RfA as successful and you are now a sysop! If you have any questions about adminship, feel free to ask me. Please consider messaging me on IRC for access to the #wikipedia-en-admins channel. Good luck! --Deskana (talk) 04:38, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

Woohoo! I knew you would make it! Just remember not to jump too quickly into tough situations. And by all means, when you have gained enough experience as an admin, remember your coaching and become an admin coach! bibliomaniac15 04:45, 8 December 2007 (UTC) PS: You also get this complimentary shirt. It's white now, but expect to be covered with whatever's in the gutter. :)

About your meatpuppet accusation on my RFA, I didn't ask Crispy to participate, and had no control over whether he participated. Thanks. -- Cobi(t|c|b|cn) 02:56, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Your RFA

Of course I don't hate you. You have a right to voice your opinion at my RFA.  :)

I am a little disappointed, however, that you don't think I am ready for the mop. Would it make any difference if I were to promise not to do things in areas where I am not familiar with or didn't know the rules?

Thanks. -- Cobi(t|c|b|cn) 03:54, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

My reply here
Adminship isn't really about writing articles but maintaining the encyclopedia. Do any of the admin tools have to do with creating/expanding articles? Furthermore, which admin tools relate to fighting vandalism? And, how many people use tools like twinkle, popups, vandalfighter, and the like to fight vandalism on their main account? Well I use ClueBot to fight vandalism, I just use it on a separate account. ClueBot is simply a tool, not a sentient being.  :) -- Cobi(t|c|b|cn) 04:30, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
My reply here
I am curious, what prompted you to change to strong oppose? I would like to know if there is anything I did to cause this, so that I may correct it. Thanks. -- Cobi(t|c|b|cn) 01:24, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] RE:WP:UAA

Hey Useight, I just wanted to remind you that WP:UAA is for blatant violations of our username policies. In your description of your report og User:OhGodOhGod, you stated that it was your opinion that is was disruptive, yet failed to explain your reasoning or cite any policy to back up your opinions. You also stated that you did not want to act on the user name until you had more input from others. Well we have WP:RFCN for that. WP:UAA is not for discussion, it is for action. I would suggest removing your report and if you feel this is disruptive, bring it up at WP:RFCN and talk with the editor. The reason for this is the admins who hang out around WP:UAA, which gets backlogged a lot, do not like these types of reports, they usually just dismiss them and they never get looked at. I hope this helps and if you have any questions, feel free to ask.
Gonzo fan2007 talk ♦ contribs 23:18, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

My reply here
Its no biggie, I just wanted to let you know as someone who has made a lot of requests there that most admins won't block unless it is very concise about why it breaks one of the policies and that it is blatant which, although I dislike any user names that mention any God, that one isnt exactly blatant, so it would need a very good reasoning to actually get blocked. Oh and the WP:RFCN is good for borderline usernames where the user is editing, because most people, if they are serious about editing, will be fine with changing their username to a more appropriate one. If you have any farther questions, feel free to ask. Good luck editing!

[edit] Thanks for supporting my RFA


Thanks for your support, my request for adminship passed 62/0/0 yesterday!

I want to thank Snowolf and Dincher for nominating me, those who updated the RfA tally, and everyone for their support and many kind words. I will do my best to use the new tools carefully and responsibly (and since you are reading this, I haven't yet deleted your talk page by accident!). Please let me know if there is anything I can do to be of assistance, and keep an eye out for a little green fish with a mop on the road to an even better encyclopedia.

Thanks again and take care, Ruhrfisch ><>°° 16:31, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

You'll be glad to know I have added the Signpost template to my Resources page. Keep up the good work, Ruhrfisch ><>°° 16:31, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] RE:Cobi's RfA

Thank you for letting me know, but i feel that my opposition was not because of a lack of vandalism reverts, as i am sure he knows all about anti-vandalism sense he did create cluebot, but because of a lack of mainspace edits and article creation. Unfortunately he has not shown much improvement in either of those areas, so i will reluctantly keep my vote as oppose. Thanks for the heads up! Cheers! Tiptoety (talk) 22:54, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for voting in my RfA, which closed successfully with 44 support, 4 oppose, and 3 neutral. I will work hard to improve the encyclopedia with my new editing tools (and don't worry, I'll be careful).

[edit] Adoption?

Hello, I am quite new to Wikipedia, and I know my way around and am OK at editing and stuff. I already have an adopter, but we don't really see eye to eye, and we don't seem to get along all that well, He seems to be against me. I was hoping that you would adopt me, if you could. I seem to be in a tad of a sticky mess about a sock puppet, even though, I can tell you, hand on my heart, that all alegations against me are false. Please adopt me, I just need the last part of the adoption course, because I have already completed most of the course. I know how to reference and stuff, but i still need to learn about IPA and likewise topics. Please Reply asap Yours Faithfully Alex Listsvery (talk) 15:19, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
