- No, I'm not really able to take on anyone else. I've now just managed to get myself into a position (now you've taken over coordinating) that I don't have to do anything on Wikipedia. I'll probably just be dropping in occasionally to block the odd vandal and close an afd discussion, but I don't want to commit to anything at the moment. Petros471 22:17, 29 October 2006 (UTC)]

I'd love to recieve a trainee! I'll become a permanent helper at Admin Coaching if it's acceptable that I'm not an admin and I've been around for less than a year. Helping less experienced editors is something I really want to do. --
I'm sorry for the confusion. If you look in the requests, you'll see a unsigned comment by me. It was actually signed, but my the four tildes must of been placed in the volunteers. I'm no admin, but I know enough about wikipedia to assist a less knowledgable trainee, but, I actually requested a coach myself, and I'm not sure if I could help enough. Sorry about the mess.

Hello HighwayCello,
All I was originally asking for was a confirmation that you would abide by the "gentleman's agreement" that was recommended the archives of
- The updater should not choose their own nominations at all
- A second thing that wasn't discussed, but which I feel follows is that one should not select nominations by WikiProjects with which one is involved or close Wikipedian associates, should there be an objection or query raised about that nomination. As such, having relaunched WP:EURO and Portal:Eurovisionand encouraged Eurovision people to participate in DYK, I have only chosen the Eurovision nominations of my wikiproject team-mates if there are no objections. On the few occasions that there were objections against the Eurovision, I have abstained from choosing them, despite my personal support for the nominations. In your case that would correspond to only picking Pokemon and Nintendo items of other users and only if there were no dissent.
- A second thing that wasn't discussed, but which I feel follows is that one should not select nominations by WikiProjects with which one is involved or close Wikipedian associates, should there be an objection or query raised about that nomination. As such, having relaunched
- I have to reiterate that the only reason I asked you these questions was that DYK is traditionally a very sleepy corner of Wikipedia, so with your emotional reaction to your suggestions being declined, I felt it necessary to ask you to reaffirm your commitment to the "gentleman's agreement". I was hoping that it was quite clear from the wording of my original comment that my original opposition was very conditional, and that I would withdraw it were you to clarify your commitment to the agreement, in much the same was as an FAC oppose, so it is unfortunate that your RfA has taken a major turn for the worse due to this. In any case, I am very sure that you are mistaken that Samir and ALoan have self-selected, especially as ALoan has only begun updating in the last fortnight, and as you make noted above, you have not been at DYK for a substantial amount of time. In any case, as my request for confirmation has been fulfilled, I have withdrawn my objection to your candidacy as I had implied and promised. I'm sorry for what has happened to your RfA.

a piece of advice
Its not from me, actually. Its from a very good editor, Ambuj Saxena. He offered me some advice on my last ER that really changed my perspective on communicating in tense situations. I pass this on to you:
As others have said above, you need to work on the time you take to react to situations. Often, as time goes by, we start seeing the situations differently; in a completely different perspective. From my experience, I can tell that in most cases (as much as I have seen), you tried to do the right thing, without giving a gestation period to your actions. Reacting too quickly is often seen as agression, and was the primary reason why your first RfA failed. I too, reacted too quickly to SV's edits, and as a result missed the fact that the FAC in question had already closed. The episode that followed is very well known to you. From what I see, you have the tell-tale signs of becoming a rouge admin, who tries to do the right thing without thinking of the consequences. But my experience tells that many people see it as a negative quality, and this may result in their opposition to your RfA. The trouble is that 100 cases of civility can't be cited to back you, and even if someone finds one hint of incivility against you, it would be used against you. As a completely independent, and equally important issue, I find that you haven't mentioned what kind of admin you are planning to be. Looking at your contributions, I found little janitorial work, and you may need to work on that too. — Ambuj Saxena (talk) 14:17, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

RfA Questions
Hi again! Per your request, I'll leave questions here, which actually leads me to a question, hehe; why would you want users to bring RfA discussion to your talk page rather than keeping it in a centralised viewable location on the RfA page where users are encouraged to submit questions for optional response by the candidate? hoopydinkConas tá tú? 15:12, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
- Sure thing, but I actually thought that the question was quite relevent, as you violated Wikipedia policy on the RfA itself (unknowingly, it seems) and actively removed content pertinent to your RfA and which users have commented on as part of their rationale. As such, the question was indeed appropriate by your own language; admin behaviour and views on policy. Also, your past actions are important as well, as one's actions largely define one's character and abilities. Furthermore, if you agree that this question is relevant to your RfA, I'd ask you to paste it onto the actual page or just drop me a line with your opinion and I'll paste it if you concur. Thanks for your quick response! hoopydinkConas tá tú? 15:28, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
- Haha, I'm not sure I fully understand the reference, but I'll go ahead and paste it. Cheers hoopydinkConas tá tú?
- I've gone ahead and pasted it, but left out your last bit about the jedi thing... I'm assuming that was your response to me, not your answer, but feel free to do whatever you want with it ;) hoopydinkConas tá tú? 15:54, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
- Haha, I'm not sure I fully understand the reference, but I'll go ahead and paste it. Cheers hoopydinkConas tá tú?
- No problem at all! First, RfA actually isn't a vote. It's a bit difficult for me to give you any specific points to work on. My issue is in regards to how you view adminship and Wikipedia, in general. I feel that in order for one to be trusted with extra responsibilities, one must have the best interests in the project at the forefront of one's mind, regardless of any personal biases. Also, I believe that one must never use the buttons to further one's own ambitions. Lastly, I feel that one needs a demeanour and approach that I don't think you possess. While I think it's great that each person approaches Wikipedia in his/her own different way, especially as it's a purely voluntary effort, I don't feel that your approach suits you for being an administrator. Sorry if this is a bit vauge, so feel free to follow up with more specifics, and I'd be happy to try to elaborate. As an aside, unrelated to RfA, I noticed that you crossed out my comments in regards to the admin coaching, but I haven't yet received any confirmation of new participation. Thanks hoopydinkConas tá tú? 03:36, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
Charizard problems
Hello. It seems I'm a new arrival on a much-discussed topic, so I apologise if I've been a little slow in getting up to speed. It seems that there are difficulties arising from a difference of opinion about what constitutes "out-universe" wording. In the interests of furthering understanding, would it be possible to ask you to explain what you consider needs improving in the Characteristics section, and what is required in order for a section to be "out-universe"? Thank you for reading this. -- Grgcox 20:31, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
- I'm sorry if I've irritated you with my edits to the Charizard page. You haven't yet replied to the comments I've made, but you have reverted the edits I've made almost immediately. Is this a sign that you don't welcome my attempts to contribute to this article? It's difficult to know what you think unless you tell me. -- Grgcox 12:19, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

Threads on the Admin coaching page
When I posted comments to everyone's posts on the admin coaching page, I contacted everyone of them with a note that said "you've got mail" and directed them to the admin coaching page. I've just received a message from one of them that he couldn't find my reply to his post there, and upon checking discovered that you have been removing entries as part of standard operating operating procedure. There's nothing wrong with that, except that I'm going to get a flood of emails from people wondering where their replies are. I've added a simple system to the Admin coaching page to accomodate the threads. I've restored all threads, using (assigned) to mark them. No need to move entries from the numerical list to any other section on the page, as new entries will naturally be posted as new headings at the bottom of the page. Simply mark entries (assigned) to keep track. This system should also make it easier to archive as well, because you won't need to move entries to another page every time you make an assignment. Simply archive the page the same way normal talk pages are archived when they become too long. I look forward to your reply. The Transhumanist 06:51, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

- Hey Highway, I'm so sorry to see that your RfA failed. I know that it doesn't mean much now, but you're a wonderful wikipedian, and a great person, and, as Samir says, you are highly valued. As I say, I know it doesn't mean much now, but it's true. Keep strong. Thε Halo Θ 00:37, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
- Yes, I agree. Actually, you were only about 10 votes away. That is, if 10 "oppose votes" had voted "support" instead, the tally would have been 60/20 which would have met the requisite 75%. Given that at least 10 votes focused on the tone of your RFA comments, I think that you are very close. I would discount the suggestion of waiting 9 months. I almost think it was deliberately put out there as bait to see if it would trigger a negative reaction from you. Unfortunately, it did. I think another RFA in 3 months would likely succeed. Continue being civil and argue more circumspectly in your next RFA. I would have switched my vote on this one if it would have changed the outcome but it became evident that it wouldn't so I left it as "oppose".

Hello HighwayCello, very thanks for supporting my successful RfA. I am very thankful to you for co-ordination in my admin coaching. I would say, please do not get disappointted with your previous RfA. But I would still congratulate you for showing great enthusiasm in your RfA. Thanks again,

Again, the issue of the month is inline citations. What is a featured article? , and other song FAs are due for the chopping block. Inline citations are an important aspect of articles—they ensure verifiability and reliability, and they remove original research. Additionally, they give readers the option to read the original source material and view it within context.
Basically:
|
Wherever possible, editors should help to trim down on list-like prose within Beatles articles. They should convert list-like sections into fluent, cohesive prose which ties an article's sections together. Lists make articles disjointed, awkward, and difficult to read. Be sure to take part in the Featured Article drive, and don't forget those inline citations! If you've just joined, add your name to the Participants section of Wikipedia:WikiProject The Beatles. You'll get a mention in the next issue of the Newsletter and get it delivered as desired. Also, please include your own promotions and awards in future issues. Don't be shy!

Wikipedia's standards are improving all the time, with the result that many articles in The Beatles Wikiproject are being nominated for review of their GA status - and many are losing that accolade. It is difficult, with such a large number of articles and the ease with which editors may make changes which are detrimental, to maintain the standard of articles, let alone improve them. As ever, members efforts are both appreciated and needed to keep the Project on course.
|
If one is to be mercenary about the subject, it should be noted that Paul McCartney is going to be more noteworthy than usual in the near future as his divorce case comes to court. In that case it is great to note that a small group of Project Members (plus another individual who does not feel compelled to register himself despite important contributions) have worked very hard, and in an atmosphere of good humour, to take the McCartney piece to a succesful Good Article nomination. Perhaps this is the method to use for future articles, a small dedicated team concentrating on one subject at a time. Of course, all members are invited to join any existing group or even go about forming their own. Please note any such action in the Project Log .
If you've just joined, add your name to the Participants section of Wikipedia:WikiProject The Beatles. You'll get a mention in the next issue of the Newsletter and get it delivered as desired. Also, please include your own promotions and awards in future issues. Don't be shy!

Could you do me a favor
Hello, I know that we have never met before, but I need to ask you a favor. I'm the logged out form of User:The Hybrid. I was trying to get myself some new vandal fighting tools, but I messed up. My skin got messed up, and my internet froze. I can't log back in. I noticed that you are currently in, so could you go to User:The Hybrid/monobook.js and blank the page for me please? It freezes when I go there to. If you do, I'll add every single Pokémon creature article as well as the video games to my watchlist and keep them vandalism free. After you're done, let me know on my IP talk page please. Cheers, 71.223.40.167 08:30, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

Congratulations, Terran
Congratulations on
]Torchic
congrats on finally getting it up to snuff! I assumed you were the one who had been working on it the most because of the last FAC you tried for. I was checking some of your refs (the Hasbro recall was interesting) and you make an analytical claim about them in the real world, noting their aesthetic appeal, but the claims are reffed with serebii epiguides.
- Like major Fire-types before it, such as Charmander,[47] Torchic's popularity is partially due to its aesthetic appeal. Torchic have been promoted in this way in the Pokémon anime, where characters have shown a liking towards it because of its attractiveness.[30][48]
This is in the "other media" section, first paragraph. -ΖαππερΝαππερ BabelAlexandria 17:11, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
Request for help
I noticed that you were instrumental in bringing a recent article to FA status. I have been trying to get the Ohio Wesleyan University article to FA status. One of the critical areas for the article that remains an issue is copyediting and prose. I was wondering if you might be willing to help me in this area? I'd greatly appreciate it! Thank you.

Coaching
Hi Highway. Thanks so much for your response (Nov 2, 2006) to my coaching request. You may have already seen that I'm not currently very active (maybe two edits in three months). I'm certainly still interested in coaching. And I wonder if that can happen at a slow pace, since I won't have much time until May('ish). I don't want to waste resources or for anyone to feel slighted if I'm not responding quickly enough. What do you think? ~ Deebkie 22:44, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

The question of capitalising of the letter "t" in The of The Beatles has been raised again. It appears that UK style references (here and here) also maintains that the letter should be in lower case. If the Project is to be appear professional then it may have to change the format. Polite discussion is invited at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject The Beatles/Policy . If possible, please provide sources/references to support your position.
It has been a fairly quiet time with regard to the Project (or at least that is how it seems).

Hottest issue or concern for this month is the perennial matter of Project articles losing their Good or Featured Article status. The main Project page now includes a status board that gives the current ratings of some of the more important articles. Let's make sure the core articles (The Beatles, John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr) reach or retain Good Article status, if not Featured Article. If you are aware of another major article whose status is at risk, add it to the board.
Since there has been no response in the matter of the use of lowercase for the initial letter of the when applied with Beatles from the opponents, it is likely that the case for using lowercase only will be adopted as Project policy by default. User:LessHeard vanU will draw up a recommendation and submit it to the Policy talkpage in a few days.
We are pleased to welcome the contributions of Alexcalamaro to this newsletter.

Hello and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I notice that you have two user subpages which use Image:Pokeballicon.gif:
Pokeballicon.gif is now obsolete and it is recommended that Image:Poké Ball icon.svg be used instead. So, I'm wondering: what is the purpose of those two pages? Are they kept for historical interest, or are they personal sandboxes, or what? Please let me know so that I know if it's appropriate to change the instances of Pokeballicon.gif on these pages to the SVG version. —Remember the dot (t) 06:35, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

See below. There is genuine concern that the Newsletter is getting stale in terms of content and variety, and that the same individuals are featured each month. Furthermore, lack of "news" is hindering the timely distribution as the editors wait for something to report. All Project editors are encouraged to give their news, suggestions and thoughts to keep the 'Letter vital and interesting. If making direct contributions do not appeal, please give a mention on the Newsletter talkpage and it will be incorporated!
Help is needed for the job of putting future Newsletters together. The present incumbent is finding it difficult to reflect the breadth of the Project, focusing on much the same individuals and articles each month, and has decided to beg for contributions from other individuals. Interested persons need only start working on next months issue to qualify. It really is that simple! If you've just joined, add your name to the Participants section of Wikipedia:WikiProject The Beatles. You'll get a mention in the next issue of the Newsletter and get it delivered as desired. Also, please include your own promotions and awards in future issues. Don't be shy! Lastly, this is your newsletter and you can be involved in the creation of the next issue (Issue 012 – April 2007). Any and all contributions are welcome. Simply let yourself be known to any of the undersigned, or just start editing!

Hello friend! I know you haven't been around in almost a year, but on the off-chance that you ever even decide to look at your user page, I thought I'd say hi, and that I hope all is going well. -- Natalya 21:06, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
- Where ya been, buddy? Even my sluggish five-edits-per-week-at-most is surpassing you! I know the Pokémon sections of Wikipedia are yearning a good beat-down my your mighty editing prowess! You're not missing much on T:SSBB, though; it's pretty much screenshot this and reference that and two-day hyper debate over here and stagnant article there. Hope to see ya again!--The Ninth Bright Shiner 18:07, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

GA Sweeps invitation
Hello, I hope you are doing well. I am sending you this message since you are a member of the GA WikiProject. I would like to invite you to consider helping with the GA sweeps process. Sweeps helps to ensure that the oldest GAs still meet the criteria, and improve the quality of GAs overall. Unfortunately, last month only two articles were reviewed. This is definitely a low point after our peak at the beginning of the process when 163 articles were reviewed in September 2007. After nearly two years, the running total has just passed the 50% mark. In order to expediate the reviewing, several changes have been made to the process. A new worklist has been created, detailing which articles are left to review. All exempt and previously reviewed articles have already been removed from the list. Instead of reviewing by topic, you can consider picking and choosing whichever articles interest you.
We are always looking for new members to assist with the remaining articles, so if you are interested or know of anybody that can assist, please visit the GA sweeps page. In addition, for every member that reviews 100 articles or has a significant impact on the process, s/he will get an award when they reach that threshold. If only 14 editors achieve this feat starting now, we would be done with Sweeps! Of course, having more people reviewing less articles would be better for all involved, so please consider asking others to help out. Feel free to stop by and only review a few articles, something's better than nothing! Take a look at the list, and see what articles interest you. Let's work to complete Sweeps so that efforts can be fully focused on the backlog at GAN. If you have any questions about the process, reviewing, or need help with a particular article, please contact me or OhanaUnited and we'll be happy to help. --Happy editing!
