Happy Labor Day!

Dear colleague, I just want to wish you a happy, hopefully, extended holiday weekend and nice end to summer! Your friend, --A Nobody^{My talk} 03:13, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

Sorry

I never did look at that thing - can you link me again?--Tznkai (talk) 00:15, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

Delayyyyy

Hi Buster....I just now saw your comment here [1], and only came on it by accident . If I saw it before I have no memory of it but I was traveling at the time so who knows. Thank you for your kind comments. I respect GTB very much for his idealistic way of dealing with Civility, and with out the ideal we will never progress seems to me. You made a comment at one point about the fact that we do not on Wikipedia have the physical cues that in "life "give us so much information about each other so need to be doubly careful here to not misinterpret and to assume good faith. Anyway I seem t have messed up on the link but I do remember the comment and its importance. Thank you for that.(olive (talk) 17:23, 9 October 2009 (UTC))

Arbitrators' opinion on hearing this matter (5/3/0/1)

• Accept. The RfC's been open a month without edits for two weeks, so if there's still an issue then Arbcom does need to look into the conduct of all involved parties. Wizardman 01:27, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
• Accept. Kirill ^[talk] [pf] 02:35, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
• Comment. Per his statement above, Collect has indicated that he recognizes there is a problem and states that he has changed his method of editing. Granted that this is very much a last-minute acknowledgement on the eve of arbitration, I wonder if we should defer this request for a bit to see whether Collect's editing does in fact substantially improve, before opening an arbitration case. I'd welcome input on this suggestion from the parties and others commenting. Newyorkbrad (talk) 16:10, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
• Accept. Looking through the comments, it's my view that ArbCom involvement is needed to sort out the situation since there is not a clear consensus about the nature of the problem. ArBCom case will let all involved offer evidence of their view of the problem. From there we can decide on the needed remedies. FloNight♥♥♥ 17:19, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
• Accept.  Roger Davies ^talk 04:38, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
• Accept - scenario suggests independent investigation rather than (or hopefully as well as) mediation will be next step. Casliber (talk · contribs) 04:48, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
• Decline. I am not convinced that this is beyond the ability of the community to resolve, that all avenues of resolving conduct concerns have been exhausted, nor that any disruption taking place is such a pressing concern that the former two points need to be waived. Additionally, arbitration is a very blunt instrument and I believe this situation would be better served by a more personalized and nuanced approach. Also, Newyorkbrad's point is also persuasive to me. On a related note, can anyone provide information about whether or not Collect abided by his voluntary one-month submission to a 1RR restriction through the month of March? I am open to the possibility that arbitration may be necessary and appropriate, but I do not see at the moment. --Vassyana (talk) 05:20, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
• Request: Collect, could you expand your statement a bit. It would be nice to know what steps you will take to avoid this happening again if this requested case is declined. John Vandenberg ^(chat) 07:56, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
  • Decline at this time, per bainer. John Vandenberg ^(chat) 23:09, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
• Reject, unless some preliminary evidence can be demonstrated of continuing problematic editing following the request for comment (preliminary in the sense that all that is necessary is to demonstrate that there is a real issue to be considered). In the event that the request is accepted, the scope ought to extend to include all the parties listed here or at the request for comment who have been involved in these editing disputes. --bainer (talk) 14:20, 20 May 2009 (UTC)

As Halloween is my favorite holiday, I just wanted to wish those Wikipedians who have been nice enough to give me a barnstar or smile at me, supportive enough to agree with me, etc., a Happy Halloween! Sincerely, --A Nobody^{My talk} 01:24, 31 October 2009 (UTC)
