Thank you for your recent comments and vote at my Request for Adminship. It was not successful. I don't believe this is unfortunate as it leaves me with much to ponder and a fresh slate from which I can better myself as an editor in order to be more compliant with the policies that are expected by Wikipedia. If you feel that there is anything that was not covered by the RfA that I need improvement in, I would implore your input and feedback as I hope and intend to improve as best I'm guided. All the best in your own endeavours in the real world, and also when you're not on Wikipedia. lincalinca 14:23, 2 November 2007 (UTC) Wikipedia has a new administrator! Thanks! Thank you for voicing your opinion in my RfA, which passed with 54 supports, 2 opposes and 3 neutrals. Thanks for your support, I really appreciate it. I hope to exceed expectations, If you have any advice please feel free to let me know. Thanks again!. --¤ The-G-Unit-฿oss ¤ The Novels WikiProject Newsletter - Issue XVIII - November 2007 The November 2007 issue of the Novels WikiProject newsletter has been published.

At your RfA I initially opposed and later changed to support over concerns about your sig, which you kindly fixed for me. I see now that you reverted it back. I had mistakenly assumed that the change was permanent, not just until you got your bit. Great work. —Moondyne 00:47, 5 November 2007 (UTC) Hm? The sig I have now is very different to the one I had in that RfA. I really don't see any problem with the current one... --DarkFalls talk 05:43, 5 November 2007 (UTC) File:DarkFalls sig.png screen shot of old sig Very different? I think most people would disagree with you over that, although it is an improvement even if only slight. I don't wish to make a big issue out of this as it is a triviality, and any more I say on the matter will only make less so. Lets leave it here. —Moondyne 06:14, 5 November 2007 (UTC) The current sig is in no breach of the sig policy. leave it. -- Anonymous DissidentTalk 06:52, 5 November 2007 (UTC) GlassCobra's RfA My RFA Hey DarkFalls!

I hope your confidence in me proves to be justified, and please feel free to call on me if you ever need any backup or second opinions! GlassCobra 01:51, 5 November 2007 (UTC) Thanks Thank you for voicing your opinions in my recent RFA which unfortunately did not pass at (47/23/5). I will be sure to take the advice the community has given me and wait till someone nominates me next time as well as improve my editing skills. Have a great day(or night)! --Hdt83 Chat 05:51, 5 November 2007 (UTC) Thank you for your support. Remember, remember, the fifth of November? Thank you to everyone who participated in my Request for adminship, which was successful at 50/5/0 on November 5th, 2007. It became, as you may know, rather contentious toward the end (though fortunately no gunpowder was involved), and I appreciate the work of other Wikipedians to keep it focused. --Thespian 02:36, 6 November 2007 (UTC) Thank you Click there to open your card! → → → Dearest DarkFalls, Thank you for your participation in my RFA, which closed successfully with 137 supports, 22 opposes, and 5 neutrals.

Thanks for that! :-) Oh, and by the way, are good at copy-editing? If so, could you copy edit Hybrid Theory so that it can be finalized for FAC? It's really the last thing the article actually needs done. Please reply on my talk page (click "85" as a shortcut).

He is in the Grand Final of Australian Idol and i believe this substantiates there being a separate article on him and Natalie Gauci.

I'm a new admin, and I was wondering if it is okay for me to make a few small edits to List of professional wrestling slang. I'm asking you, since you are the protecting admin. A user mentioned on the talk page that a few of the links are dead-end, so I'd like to fix those. Also, I have found two sources I would like to add to the article: one has a definition for stiff and one has a definition for valet. I don't want to alter the content, just add the sources and delete the internal dead links. I just wanted to make sure that was okay with you before I did it and that it isn't against policy. Thanks. Nikki311 06:09, 22 November 2007 (UTC) Unprotected. Feel free to make the edits. --DarkFalls talk 07:55, 22 November 2007 (UTC) RfA thanks Just wanted to say thanks for supporting me!

Tapadh Leibh (Thank You)... ...for helping me navigate the waters of my surprisingly peaceful RFA, which closed successfully with 85 supports, 1 oppose, and 0 neutral. I would particularly like to thank Acalamari and Alison, my nominators, and everyone who watched the page and ran the tally. If there is anything I can do to be of service in the future, please feel free to contact me. If you hate RfA thankspam, please forgive me. I promise I won't block you in retaliation for deleting it ;-) And forgive me if I need a Wikibreak now and then (like now. I'm exhausted!). You wouldn’t want to see me climbing the Reichstag, now would you? Off to flail around with my new mop! (what?!)

A vandal, as seen in this link, keeps vandalizing the Janice Dickinson article. Doesn't seem likely to stop. Even threatened to have me blocked. Your help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
