RE:East Croydon

Hey, I can't work out what you did with the infobox here but it appears to have removed half the parameters, just thought I'd let you know. Cheers, - Zeibura (Talk) 21:26, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

Me niether, I was hoping someone else would know what to do! Pafcool2 (talk) 13:12, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
(Copied from Pafcool2's talk page) I found the solution. One of the ref tags was missing the >.

LOLCat Bible Translation Project

this is kind of silly - does it really warrant a separate article? I think it would be best suited as a subheader in lolcats. -Wooty [Woot?] [Spam! Spam! Wonderful spam!] 13:49, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

PROD

Another editor has added the "{{prod}}" template to the article LOLCat Bible Translation Project, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

dude, whatever, it was to demonstrate how badly the current article sucks, if it is now your pet project, do some real research and sort the wheat from the chaff, instead of pretending that it is representative of a genuine overview of the subject. Also, weed out the other verbatim c&p's while you are at it.

Meetup

Hi there, I noticed you expressed interest in the Birmingham meetup last October. Just letting you know, another UK meetup is in planning stages, here. We need input on where and when we will meet so comments would be much appreciated. Thanks. Majorly (talk) 16:49, 3 January 2008 (UTC)


Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Elonka 3

Thank you for your support in my RfA. It was definitely a dramatic debate, that landed on WP:100! I paid close attention to everything that was said, and, where possible, I will try to incorporate the (constructive) criticism towards being a better administrator. I'm taking things slowly for now, partially because of the holidays and all the off-wiki distractions. :) I'm also working my way through the Wikipedia:New admin school and double-checking the relevant policies, and will gradually phase into the use of the new tools. My main goals are to help out with various backlogs, but I also fully intend to keep on writing articles, as there are several more that I definitely want to get to WP:FA status! Thanks again, and have a great new year, --Elonka 18:18, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Jungle

Sorry, but old school jungle is a misnomer, the context is not retrospective, the tense obviates the use of this term. cheers

lol sorry, I get it, missed that in the edit conflict, it was pointing to a jungle!! thanks. Semitransgenic (talk) 05:29, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Just so you know...

Hello Zeibura, you may have noticed the "rollback" button appear and disappear: see here. Well, I thought I had made an out-of-process promotion there. Anyway, someone else has granted the right, so everything's fine now. :) Good luck. Acalamari 04:12, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Glad you're fine with it. :) Acalamari 17:33, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

The Wiggles GAN

Fruit Salad, yummy yummy!
Fruit Salad, yummy yummy!

Zeibura, you get this healthy Fruit Salad for upgrading The Wiggles for good-article status. This is the first article I've significantly edited that has successfully gone through the GAN process. I'm so proud! Plus, the guys really deserve a quality article on WP. You rock! --Figureskatingfan (talk) 00:33, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

ATT:ZEIBURA

thx for your reply. i wanted to ask if you if you can do me this favor of bringing in the phace mixmag interview because i dont know how to do it properly. also, if you can delete "energy flash no. 3 & 4" on "notes" because i dont see the point in having it unless you do. also would like to take a break from this artcle since i wrote it alone so im a bit overwhelmed. and here´s a ref of my work, my name is rob soares and i was interviewed by this russian web: http://eng.drumandbass.ru/content433

best

Thanks for the infomation regarding Mary Anne Hobbs: I actually caught that account in the new user log. Acalamari 21:29, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

Your task...

Read. Learn. Understand. If you can keep this going happily, and source it correctly, you'll get a barnstar off (probably not just) me. The article has had a poor start, but it's still got promise; are you up for taking this on as a mini-project? Chase me ladies, I'm the Cavalry (talk) 12:22, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

Re. rune stone

Wow! I had no idea that those runes combined would form such a neat, symmetrical figure. Thanks a lot Zeibura, I'm sure that I'll come up with some sort of usage for the image you created. :-) Good luck with your RfA by the way, seems to be going pretty well. Best regards, Húsönd 18:28, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

You are now an administrator

Congratulations, I have just closed your RfA as successful and made you an administrator. Take a look at the administrators' how-to guide and the administrators' reading list if you haven't read those already. Also, the practice exercises at the new admin school may be useful. If you have any questions, get in touch on my talk page. WjBscribe 19:08, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

"Alex Sedano" was just deleted

Dear Zeibura,

I'm writing you in order to understand the reason why "Alex Sedano" has been deleted. In your summary reads : (content was: '{{db-redirnone}} #REDIRECT Alex Sedano' (and the only contributor was 'KathrynLybarger')) I've been reading everywhere, but I still dont understand what I done wrong.

Could you please help me with this? Thank you, Laptopgeneration (talk) 07:50, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

I see now, Im sorry if I thought was you, when in fact you was only correcting it. So yes, as far I understood, the reason why Alex Sedano's Bio page has been deleted is because was missing any published work. So it was looking like personal page and without relevance.
I just hope that the next time that I will try again, I wont be deleted. Is very frustrating.
Thank you, Laptopgeneration (talk) 08:17, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
Yes please, It took me ages LOL I will work it out later.Thank you :) Laptopgeneration (talk) 08:26, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

Prominence

I have nominated Wikipedia:PROMINENCE for deletion because it is an underhanded way to twist policy to suit one's own interpretation. Feel free to comment. - CobaltBlueTony™ talk 22:10, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Protection of lolcats

Hi, Zeibura. I appreciate the need to protect lolcats, as an edit war was currently ongoing. Would you consider, however, fully protecting the page? It seems unfair to semi-protect the article, as it excludes the anonymous editors, and lets the registered editors continue to edit (despite the fact that they were also engaging in edit warring).

Thanks for your consideration, Iamunknown 05:50, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks :) --Iamunknown 15:20, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

Question

I wanted to ask, how did it feel fixing your nominator's statement? :) Acalamari 22:08, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

Oh, it was no bother. :) I just found it funny, that's all. Acalamari 22:34, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

Riana's request for bureaucratship

Dear Zeibura, thank you for taking part in my RfB. As you may know, it was not passed by bureaucrats.
I would, however, like to thank you for taking the time to voice your support, despite concerns cited by the opposition. Although RfA/B isn't really about a person, but more about the community, I was deeply touched and honoured by the outpouring of support and interest in the discussion. I can only hope that you don't feel your opinion was not considered enough - bureaucrats have to give everyone's thoughts weight.
I also hope that the results of this RfB lead to some change in the way we approach RfBs, and some thought about whether long-entrenched standards are a good thing in our growing and increasingly heterogenous community.
I remain eager to serve you as an administrator and as an editor. If at any point you see something problematic in my actions, please do not hesitate to call me out. ~ Riana ⁂ 12:26, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Aura-Soma

An editor has nominated Aura-Soma, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Aura-Soma and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 20:59, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
