Questions
Sorry to be bothering you, because I am very new, but I have been trying to stop vandalism in the whole two days that I have been here. YOu may have your laugh at how pathetic my time here is, but that's alright :P I was just wondering how to change your signature to look different, as well as how long I should wait before applying for rollback permissions. The undo button is already irritating me. Thanks CanadianNine (talk) 02:02, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

Re:Congratulations
Thanks a lot. I made a mistake by forgetting to check the page history on Huggle, but I'm hoping to learn from my mistakes. You're obviously an established user, and I was wondering if you thought I should be making contributions to AfD. I've used Wikipedia a lot in the past, and I joined hoping to give back a little. However, my denial from the ACC interface made me wonder if maybe I was moving a little too fast. Would you advise me to wait before making contributions to AfD, XfD, GA and other such pages, or is it all right to contribute? Thanks again, CanadianNine 01:32, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
Hey there Ren, I sent you an email concerning an RfA. Just wanted to let you know. CanadianNine 00:32, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
RfA
Are you gonna set it up or do you want me to? After you answer the questions of course. CanadianNine 02:27, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but you meant to vote "delete", right? - Biruitorul Talk 02:41, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
Your RFA
Unfortunately, I have closed your RFA as unsuccessful. However, as a general statement from the opposition and the neutrals, you are on the right track to become an very useful editor. Keep in mind these criticisms as you go about and attain more experience. It's not uncommon for admins to be unsuccessful the first time, and many have actually benefited from the post-RFA period to reflect on their own experience and find new resolve here. I hope you'll continue to work hard here as a constructive contributor and show the community next time that you do have what it takes. Cheers, bibliomaniac15 02:07, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

Re: GA Sweeps
Could you provide a selection of GA reviews you completed. A good selection would be some that you passed and some that you failed. OhanaUnitedTalk page 18:16, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
- Good decision. The purpose of GA Sweeps is to catch any article which fell through the cracks so we're looking for experienced reviewers. OhanaUnitedTalk page 18:40, 20 May 2009 (UTC)

Barnstar
Did you really intend to give a barnstar to someone whose only edit to an article was to (unnecessarily?) expand and date a tag? PamD (talk) 23:23, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
ThankSpam
Thank you for participating in my "RecFA", which passed with a final tally of 153/39/22. There were issues raised regarding my adminship that I intend to cogitate upon, but I am grateful for the very many supportive comments I received and for the efforts of certain editors (Ceoil, Noroton and Lar especially) in responding to some issues. I wish to note how humbled I was when I read Buster7's support comment, although a fair majority gave me great pleasure. I would also note those whose opposes or neutral were based in process concerns and who otherwise commented kindly in regard to my record. ~~~~~ |

Thank you for your support
I would like to thank you for coming out and participating in my Request for Adminship, which closed unsuccessfully at (48/8/6) based on my withdrawal. I withdrew because in my opinion I need to focus on problems with my content contributions before I can proceed with expanding my responsibilities. Overall I feel that the RfA has improved me as an editor and in turn some articles which in my eyes is successful. Thank you again for your support. Cheers and happy editing. --kelapstick (talk) 17:40, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

Editorial Assessment Questions
Hi, thanks a lot for offering to help with 1.0! Currently we're in a state of limbo. We're doing the final work on checking articles for vandalism for the 0.7 release (that's what I was doing when your message came in). We will be starting work on 0.8 soon, but the selection will be mainly done by SelectionBot; the reviewers are needed to review the manual nominations that come in after that. For Version 0.8, that is likely to be around September or so - if I had to guess.
The system we are using is constantly evolving; once 0.7 is published I will try to "clean house" - we have a lot of "clutter" left over from when everything was done manually.
If you want to help in getting 0.7 out of the door, by all means sign up for a section over at Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Badwords cleanup (instructions are there) - I'm working through the "H" section at the moment. It's very tedious work, so I do understand if it's not your thing! We hope to be using a WikiTrust-based version selection on Version 0.8, which would save me months of tedious vandalism-checking!
If you have any more questions, don't hesitate to ask. Cheers, Walkerma (talk) 02:54, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
