Re: SPI Clerk Trainnee
I could train you, but not for next couple of weeks as I have various real-life obligations to undertake. And I won't go on IRC because it's a hotbed for counterproductive drama so my preference would be over msn. OhanaUnitedTalk page 20:52, 28 May 2010 (UTC)

Admin coaching
Hi MWOAP,
I've recently returned from a fairly lengthy wikibreak, and while I am refreshed and once again in the mood to edit, I'm afraid I just don't have the enthusiasm or patience left to continue admin coaching my current students. I've enjoyed working with you recently, and I'd still be happy to answer any specific questions you may have, but I'm afraid I just can't be an effective mentor for the time being.
Obviously this isn't a reflection on you or your efforts so far. I wish you the best of luck should you run for RfA in the future.
Regards,

New user
Hi MWOAP! Thanks for your lovely welcome on my user page. As well as hoping you might have time to cast an eye over the copyedit work I have carried out since joining I would also like to know how it is possible to know how to know when a message I have placed on someone elses talk page is responded to? Do I have to elect to watch the page? If so, then please let me know on my user page as I have NOT elected to watch your page. --SciHound (talk) 11:12, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

Is this why ClueBot is stopped?
I noticed ClueBot reverted one of MWOAPBot's edits as possible vandalism and gave a "Warning #1". mechamind90 21:02, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

Reply to Response
{{User:ClueBot III/ArchiveNow}}
ResolvedThanks for the response. I have posted this argument on society sports and culture, WP:Football and asked for neutral editors opinion. Replies from the society have agreed with the fact that the section is overweight and the proposal was along the right lines. Where do I go from here. The article and section really needs neutral editors (editors who have never really edited the page before) to look over it and give strong opinions about which way to go. Thanks for any advice and guidance in advance.(Monkeymanman (talk) 20:29, 15 June 2010 (UTC))
- I just saw that this user was on ANI regrading disruptive edits. If you get a 1 or 2 users siding with you, and no opposes, then I would say change it back. -- /DeltaQuad|Notify Me\ 20:36, 15 June 2010 (UTC)
- He is asking me to revert the section back to the way it was before he was blocked. Another user shrunk a statement within the section due to recentism and undue weight (aswell as the fact that it had its own article) it was not opposed and he immediately tried to revert the article after unblock. Even if another 2 or 3 users said that the section should be condensed he would still argue that it is necessary to keep it as full as possible. How do I get neutral editors to engage in strong discussion with this. Do I need to open mediation and how do I go about it. Thanks again(Monkeymanman (talk) 20:49, 15 June 2010 (UTC))
- Ok, not quite sure what you are saying right now. First if you haven't already, take it to a noticeboard. If that fails, go for Informal Mediation. That first one will allow non-involved users to comment. -- /DeltaQuad|Notify Me\ 22:44, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

Clear Submission Requirements
{{User:ClueBot III/ArchiveNow}}
Resolved(Loreensherman (talk) 20:39, 22 June 2010 (UTC)).Thank you for your review of the submission on the article "Four Tests Formulaic Communication Passes in Economics" and stated that you "can't totally tell what you are trying to communicate her[e]". Therefore, to assist you I wonder if, the forces affecting economics are understood. Is this what I need to clarify? Or do you want more clarification on the point that all four tests confirm the significance of Formulaic Communication. To me, the article clearly proved that there are four key economic forces that affect today's market that in The Industrial Age were defined differently. This difference in the foundation of thought and knowledge has led to a paradigm shift. I wonder if this shift is what is not understood in the article. Could you offer more specific feedback. I feel that this explanation offers the clarity you are looking for and if I include it in resubmitting the article if it would meet the criteria expected in the Wikipedia submissions. Please advise me on how to proceed and what else may be required. Thanks for your timeliness and consideration. Loreen Sherman. Loreensherman (talk) 20:39, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
