Honored, but not right now

Wow, I am humbled by your kind words and your vote of confidence. At this time, however, I do not feel I could give wikipedia the level of attention that it deserves from an sysop. In a few months, however, I would likely be interested. But thanks again for the note and if you ever need a pair of disinterested, 3rd-party eyes to look at an article in your field of expertise, do not hesitate to give me a holler. Cheers. youngamerican (talk) 15:39, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

Template:Unsigned

Conversation pulled from both talk pages

If somebody forgets to sign a comment just sign it for them using Template:Unsigned [1]--E-Bod 21:56, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

May I suggest using Template:Unsigned.

1. It tells us who left the message
2. It let's users know that they can't use not signing a message as a way to hide the message

&nbsp

&nbsp' means "non-breaking space": Anon-breaking space (NBSP) is a special space character that prevents an automatic line break (line wrap) at its position. It is also known as a hard space or fixed space. It can also be used to get multiple spaces in a row in systems like HTML that reduce sequences of normal spaces to a single space. ≈ jossi ≈ t • @ 02:55, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

A landslide victory for The JPS (aka RFA thanks)

Hey, Siva1979/Archive 5, thank you so much for your vote and comments in my RfA, which passed with an overwhelming consensus of 95/2/2. I was very surprised and flattered that the community has entrusted me with these lovely new toys. I ripped open the box and started playing with them as soon as I got them, and I've already had the pleasure of deleting random nonsense/attacks/copyvios tonight. If I ever do anything wrong, or can help in some way, please feel free to drop me a line on my talk page, and I will do my best to correct my mistake, or whatever... Now, to that bottle of wine waiting for me... The JPS talk to me 21:40, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the support on my RfA!

A belated thank you to you for Supporting my RFA! I am still finding my feet as an Administrator, and so far I am enjoying the experience. I am honoured that you felt I was ready to take up this position, and wish to thank you formally! I hope I can live up to your expectations of me. Once again, thank you! --Darth Deskana (talk page) 18:24, 3 May 2006 (UTC)

May the Force be with you.

Dear Siva1979/Archive 5,

Thanks for voting on my RFA! I appreciate your faith in me, and was overwhelmed by the positive response to my RFA; for it shows that at least I'm doing something right. :) I've started working to improve myself already, and I hope that next time, things run better, and maybe, just maybe, one day we can bask on the shores of Admintopia together. Thanks and cheers, _-M o P-_ 21:52, 3 May 2006 (UTC)

My RFA

Hello Siva1979/Archive 5, and thanks for supporting me on my recent request for adminship! It has succeeded with an unanimous support of 67 votes, so that I am now an administrator. Please feel free to leave a note on my talk page should you wish to leave any comments or ask for any help. Again, thanks a lot, AndyZ t 21:53, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

Thank you!

Hello, Siva1979/Archive 5, and thank you for vote on my recent RfA! With a final vote of 62/2/4, I have now been entrusted with the mop, bucket and keys. As I acclimate myself to my new tools, feel free to let me know how you believe I might be able to use them to help the project. Thanks again! RadioKirk talk to me 05:33, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia talk:Administrators' noticeboard

Please don't edit other people's comments, even to fix spelling mistakes or add Wikilinks. I know you're doing it in good faith, but it's important to avoid changing other people's words. FreplySpang (talk) 16:56, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

P.S. Please see Wikipedia:Talk_page_guidelines#Behavior that is unacceptable on Wikipedia for more details. FreplySpang (talk) 17:03, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

Ditto for Wikipedia talk:WikiProject hip hop. TheJabberwʘck 17:04, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your response. As far as I can tell, it's a "guideline" rather than a "policy." However, it's a very widely accepted guideline. Believe me, I understand the urge to fix up these little mistakes! But any time you change someone else's words, you run the risk of changing their meaning. (Perhaps the word they intended was a slang term that you are not familiar with, for example.) The line between "clarifying someone's thoughts" and changing the meaning of their words is not always clear. Less abstractly, people just get irritated by it! So it's strongly preferred to leave signed comments as they are. Thank you for your good intentions and your wish to make Wikipedia more professional! FreplySpang (talk) 17:13, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

No, really, fixing spelling mistakes is discouraged as well. Whether or not a strict interpretation of the guideline's wording suggests it, our general practice is to avoid all such corrections. FreplySpang (talk) 17:18, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

Hello, Siva1979. To give a specific example of this, I once commented that a contribution "was OR", which was subsequently "corrected" by another editor to read as "was OK". The guideline is well founded, for sentences that have apparent mistakes, if the meaning is 100% clear, there's no need to change it, and if it isn't 100% clear, then you have the risk of changing the meaning. I admire the good intention (as I find reading misspellings "harsh" too), but it's too fraught with risks which outweight the benefits! Cheers, MartinRe 17:25, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for understanding. I know it seems like a counterproductive guideline, but it's for the best when dealing with a large, diverse community. (MartinRe's example above is a good one.) I'm skeptical about leaving messages on the talk pages of people who make mistakes. One would have to be extremely diplomatic to do that successfully. For instance, some users make mistakes because they are dyslexic or because they have hand impairments that affect their typing. Others might simply find it annoying. In short, I don't think it would be a wise course of action. You're free to try it, but I don't think you'll find it especially rewarding. FreplySpang (talk) 18:11, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

Hello again. wrt to leaving notes on user's talk page, I have to say personally it might be a bad idea. Not only would you have to be diplomatic, but your own typing would have to be perfect - can you imagine the replies you'd get if you made a spelling misktake when pointing out someone elses? *shudder* Of course, if the meaning isn't clear, and you need to know, by all means ask the user to clarify, but talk pages are generally transient, so don't need to be 100% typo free, just understandable. If you do decide to give it a go, it would be interesting to add the outcome to the talk page guidlelines page, so others can see how it was regarded. All the best, MartinRe 21:24, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

Best of luck with it, and I hope it works out. I'd be interested in the response! I'd suggest that even if works out for you, (which it might, as you seem very polite :) that the guideline remains. Guidelines are just that, and you are free to ignore them, but I would hesitate changing it in case more editors think it's okay to make changes and they aren't so polite and careful! All the best, MartinRe 14:14, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

Esperanza Newsletter, Issue #3

Administrator Coaching The Administrator Coaching program is a program aimed at preparing Wikipedians for Adminship or helping them understand the intricacies of Wikipedia better. Recently, changes have been made to the requirements of coaches. Please review them before requesting this service. This would be something like the Welcoming Committee, but for people who have figured out the basics of editing articles; they're not newcomers any more, but they might want some help in learning new roles. Some might like suggestions about how to learn vandal patrol, or mentoring on taking an article to featured status, or guidance with a proposal they plan to make at the Village Pump, for example. In this way, Esperanza would help keep hope alive for Wikipedia because we would always be grooming the next generation of admins. Stressbusters The Stressbusters are a subset of Esperanza aiming to investigate the causes of stress. New eyes on the situation are always welcome! Note from the editor As always, MiszaBot handled this delivery. Thank you! Also, congratulations go to Pschemp, Titoxd and Freakofnurture for being elected in the last elections! An Esperanzial May to all of the readership!

The last AC meeting (full log) Posting logs of the Esperanza IRC channel are explicitly banned anywhere. Violation of this rule results in deletion and a ban from the channel. A disclaimer is going to be added to the Esperanza main page. We are humans and, as such, are imperfect. Various revisions have been made to the Code of Conduct. Please see them, as the proposal is ready to be ratified by the community and enacted. All members will members to have to re-confirm their membership after accepting the Code of Conduct. Referendums are to be held on whether terms of AC members should be lengthened and whether we should abolish votes full stop. Admin Coaching reform is agreed upon. Signed...

Missing Images

Hi Siva, Thanks for the welcome when I started contributing. However, there seems to be a problem in Commons with my images in the last few days, quite a few don't appear on my watchlist, but they do appear on the Complete List option. An example - LRDG Memorial at Papakura New Zealand.jpg. I suppose if you can solve it for one picture it'll solve it for the others too. Thanks for any help you can give.

Thanks for voting on my RfA

Thanks so much for voting! Thanks so much for voting on my request for adminship. I have decided to withdraw my nomination as it seems that consensus will not be reached. If you voted in support, thanks for putting your trust in me to be a good admin. If you voted in opposition, thank you as well for your constructive criticism as it will only help me be a better Wikipedian and perhaps help if/when I apply for adminship again sometime in the future.

About the RfA nom offer...

...Check back with me in July. Some things in my personal/professional life should have quieted down by then and I would have more time to handle being an admin. Thanks again for the kind words. youngamerican (talk) 17:56, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

Andrew de Moray.

I left a note for you on the discussion page attached to the de Moray page. To make the position more precise I can give you the following information.

1. Letters to the Hanseatic towns writtten in October 1297 are signed by Wallace and de Moray as 'Leaders of the army of Scotland and of the Realm'. De Moray, who was seriously wounded at Stirling Bridge, no longer appears on any document after this time.

2. The first reference to the Guardianship as such comes in a charter granted to Andrew Scrymgeour, dated 29 March 1298, where Wallace is described as 'Guardian of Scotland and Leader of the Army.'

I hope this helps. Rcpaterson 05:54, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

superthanks

Hi Sivabhai - I'm very sorry to have disappointed your expectation in me, but it had become impossible for me to compromise my principles. I don't covet adminship at all, so it wasn't a difficult decision - I simply cannot accept misrepresentation and nonsense. However, I cannot tell you how greatly joyous I feel at the enthusiastic, wonderful support you expressed for me. I don't know how hard it will be to understand that your supports means extremely a lot to me. I thank you from my heart, and please let me know if I can ever be assistance or help in anything. Rama's Arrow 21:05, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

Well Sivabhai, doing this was right and easy, becoz being/not being an admin does not mean much to me, really. The quest here is to advance our database of knowledge, and having a few tools to block/delete doesn't make anybody special. There is no chance in hell that I'd ever allow myself to compromise my principles. I'm not disappointed, but I feel like a 500-lb load has been taken off my back. Best of luck to you too - like you said, we should stay determined and work harder. Rama's Arrow 21:29, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

Request for Adminship

---

Thank you for supporting/objecting/tropicanising me in my request for Adminship. Although I wasn't promoted to admin status, with a final vote count of 14/27/12, I am very happy with the response I received from my fellow Wikipedians. I was pleasantly suprised at the support, and was touched by it. I will also work harder on preventing disputes and boosting my edit count (which is on the up), so thank you to all your objectors. Hopefully I will re-apply soon and try again for the mop. Thanks again, Highway ^{Rainbow Sneakers}

Thanks for voting in my request for administrator rights, even though it failed (13/30/4). Sadly, work has forced me to respond to you all using a substituted message rather than a personalized response. Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that administrators, to me, should be chosen and approved by the community, and I will continue working to become a better editor and Wikipedian. No matter what the alignment of your vote was, I will take your comments seriously and use them to improve myself.

Hmmm... What is the difference between the Commons map and this map? Images on Commons don't need to be uploaded on Wikipedia but fair use images must be uploaded to EN Wikipedia and not Commons. It is advisable not to upload own images to Wikipedia, but to Wikimedia Commons. --Terence Ong 03:51, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Of course you are not violating any policy of Wikipedia. However, we try to keep own work images on Commons, and remove them from Wikipedia. There is a WikiProject started by Mailer Diablo to transwiki user's picture's collection to Commons. See here, rather inactive though, I'm the other member of it. There is no need to download an image from your PC at Commons and upload it here. Commons images can be used at ALL Wikimedia projects, unlike Wikipedia. For the NowCommons tag, you can ask an admin to delete the image available at Commons, but most users keep the images at both places. If you have other doubts, you may like to ask me. --Terence Ong 04:07, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Text beside boxes

Hi Siva, Can you please advise how to place text to the right or left of Boxes, like on your User pager for example. I find there are many geography pages with huge amounts of white space wasted beside a Box. Thanks GrahamBould 06:41, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Hi Siva, Thanks for your advice. I was thinking mainly about articles like: [[7]] where the text seems to start after the end of the box. If you could fix this I could learn what you did by checking History. GrahamBould 12:10, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

Q K Southampton

Siva - I don't think the re-direct for Q K Southampton you've set up is correct. I believe their name uses the initials "Q K" rather than "Queens Keep". There are a number of others clubs where pub names have been abbreivated in such a manner - e.g. Meir K A and St Loyes (T & B) because senior leagues don't wish to be associated with clubs who look like "pub teams". - fchd 12:11, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

Seeking Editor Review Commentary (If You Like)

Hi. In conjunction with my RfA (that you voted on), I have created an editor review, to give people a chance to comment as to ways in which I can branch out or alter my contributions to Wikipedia. An RfA seems to solely focus on how one's temperment and contributions relate to how they might handle administrative powers (and the consensus on that seems to be that I'm not quite ready); the editor review opens things up a little more to a larger focus, and I'd love to hear community feedback in the sense of that larger focus, too. If you feel you've already expressed yourself sufficiently when casting your vote, then by all means don't worry about it, but if any thoughts come to mind or if you'd like to expound upon any suggestions or commentary, it would be appreciated. In any case, I appreciated you taking the time to express your opinion on my RfA, and I thank you for that. — WCityMike (talk • contribs) 19:55, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

I am wondering, is it pure sympathy or do you stand by you vote? And if you have voted oppose, can you show me where. This is nothing personal (I think you need to be an admin), I am wondering about this sypahthetic behavior. The Gerg 23:43, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
