My RFA

Just to inform you, I have posted my RFA a few days early so I can answer all of the optional questions over the long weekend. STORMTRACKER 94 13:14, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

My RfA

Hey there, I'm writing to inform you that I have withdrawn my request for adminship, which was currently standing at 11 supports, 22 opposes and 6 neutrals. This count could have been so much better if I had understood policy, although I believe that 17 questions is a lot to ask of a user's first RfA. I will take on all comments given at the RfA and will endeavour to meet the high expectations of the RfA voters. _{WEBURIEDOURSECRETSINTHEGARDEN}^{play it cool.} 21:02, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

Returning

After much thought and deliberation I have decided to return. Many wikians contacted me by various means and I truly appreciate the support from all of them. Man, did I need that wiki break! I have learned from it and will use the experience to improve. — Rlevse • Talk • 19:27, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

I have the mop but can you search the RFA meeting shown to find the bucket?	Thanks for your support, my request for adminship passed 60/0/0 yesterday! I want to thank Mrs.EasterBunny and Royalbroil for nominating me, those who updated the RfA tally, and everyone for their support and many kind words. To paraphrase a president ... I wish my mum and dad could see the comments made. My dad would be so proud to see the comments ... and my mum would have believed them".

Hope your health gets better and you can come back soon, Wizardman. Though I agree that "we're full of drama", it's always been like that here and you shouldn't let stuff not really affecting you prey on your mind, unless you're referring to the Arbcom case, which certainly exhausts everyone involved. In any case, if you're worn out and need to recover your health, a short break will do. Please don't leave.

Userfication of Kunle Odetoyinbo article

Hi Wizardman - I just wanted to let you know I don't want Kunle Odetoyinbo userfied, but thanks for the offer! Pitt the elder (talk) 08:57, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

asking for your support

Good day, I am soliciting your input and support for reinstating an article that I wrote called Leo J Meyer. Col Meyer was a soldier who started out in pre WWII National Guard ranks. After being called to Federal service and serving in the Pacific for most of 1942 he attended USAAF OCS in Miami Beach Fl along with several Hollywood personalities. His squad Sergeant was William Holden. He continued thru the war to Japan and returned after it to NYNY. He reenlisted in the National Guard and then transferred back onto active duty. He managed to get his commission reinstated and spent the rest of his time on active Army until retiring as a Colonel in 1971. He actually participated in combat in three wars and was awarded three Combat Infantryman Badges (read the article and the article on the CIB to learn the significance).

Besides telling a story of a man who “just wanted to be a soldier” I intended to wet the whistle of readers with a glimpse of US Army history (federalization of NG, WWII enlisted rank system, etc) hoping to encourage further investigation and learning of that history via Wikipedia.

I began posting the article to Wikipedia in late November 2007. By late January 2008 I felt the military biography was essentially complete without telling anecdotal stories about him and his friends like Hugh Casey for whom Camp Casey, Korea was named. That would only point out his personality and not necessarily be encyclopedic. At the end of January 08 a Wikipedia Administrator nominated the article for deletion. Although there were a couple of administrators who participated in the discussions who supported leaving the article, the decision was made to delete.

Obviously I feel that the Military Biographical Article falls in line with other articles of soldiers like Meyer’s friend Frederick Weyand whose article was the example I followed.

I found that those people who participated in the AfD did not read everything published or what was there very clearly, i.e. I hade posted an image of an article from an Army publication which addressed Meyer’s earning his parachute wings at age 51 and I had included from the get go the title of a book about Scrimshaw in which some of his art work was published by the books author. One complaint about this later was that there was no ISBN. I could not find one but I have found the Library of Congress Catalog numbers for the two books referenced.

I have modified the article and it is currently at User:Meyerj user page. I am inviting you to read it and if you support reinstating it, helping me to do so.

Thank you for your time. Meyerj (talk) 18:15, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

==Leo J. Meyer==

Please have a look at the DRV for Leo J. Meyer (currently seen at User:Meyerj located at Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2008 March.

Your RfB was unsuccessful

I am sorry to inform you that your RfB was unsuccessful. As your are aware, community expectations at RfB require an extremely high proportion of support for such requests to be successful. That wasn't present on this occasion. I hope you will not be too disheartened - an unsuccessful RfB should not be taken as a sign that other users do not appreciate your work as an editor or adminsitrator. Should you still be interested in serving the community as a bureaucrat, I suggest you take onboard the comments made by opposers and address them as best you can before making a future request. Best wishes, WjBscribe 05:05, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

Art Houtteman

Hello, I have begun reviewing this article. I thought that it might make more sense to contact you rather than the nominator, as the nominator has apparently nominated several articles on which he/she has not done any editing. The quick-fail criteria do not apply to this article, so the review is proceeding. I plan to have it finished today or tomorrow, but work might have other plans for me. So far, I have reviewed up to the end of the "Ace of the staff" subsection. I have been making some relatively minor changes as I go through, as it is often easier to make these changes rather than explain them. I will inform you on your talk page when the review is complete. GaryColemanFan (talk) 16:09, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

I decided just to push through the review this morning, so I have it completed. The article is well done. I have a few fairly minor concerns, so I have placed the review on hold. I left a list of what I feel needs to be completed before it can be passed. Please let me know when you have completed these items so that I can look the article over again. Thanks, GaryColemanFan (talk) 16:52, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

You've been doing a good job on this article. The only things left are the "doghouse" issues, and I've proposed a solution on the talk page. I'll look over the article again when I have a chance, but I would appreciate it if you could look at my suggestion for the "doghouse" thing. GaryColemanFan (talk) 03:31, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

Congratulations! All of my concerns have been addressed, and I have passed this as a Good Article. As I mentioned before, this was my first GA Review, so I would appreciate any feedback you might have about my review (if any). Thank you for your hard work on the article and your previous feedback on my suggestions. I learned a lot from this process, and I think the article looks great.

My request for bureaucratship

Dear Wiz, thank you for taking part in my RfB. As you may know, it was not passed by bureaucrats.
I would, however, like to thank you for taking the time to voice your support, despite concerns cited by the opposition. Although RfA/B isn't really about a person, but more about the community, I was deeply touched and honoured by the outpouring of support and interest in the discussion. I can only hope that you don't feel your opinion was not considered enough - bureaucrats have to give everyone's thoughts weight.
I also hope that the results of this RfB lead to some change in the way we approach RfBs, and some thought about whether long-entrenched standards are a good thing in our growing and increasingly heterogenous community.
I was a little miserable after the results came out, so I'm going to spread the love via dancing hippos. As you do. :)
I remain eager to serve you as an administrator and as an editor. If at any point you see something problematic in my actions, please do not hesitate to call me out. ~ Riana ⁂ 11:53, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

Regarding Youth United

Dear wizardman. an article Youth United, created by me was deleted by you because it was supposedly not complying with some of the wikipedia policies and usages. However i tried to go through the details and I found that the main problem in the article Youth United was the lack of third party sources to prove the notability of the organization. I tried to remove this problem by quoting a lot of third party sources to prove the worth of the article in the wikipedia. I believe I am not violating any of the wikipedia policies this time and at the same time I also believe that I have satisfied all the criteria of wikipedia for this article to be published here. other problem is with the logo of the Youth United, regarding some copyright issues. This logo is the property of the Youth United organization and hence the President of the Youth United is the owner. The logo was created by a designer of the organization and this logo is used in all the references of the organization including its official website www.youthunited.in, which is registered with the name of the Founder President of Youth United,Jyotindra Nath. The logo is being used under his permission and hence it does not infringe any Intellectual Property Right issue of India or other country. Therefore I am again uploading the same image, testifying its non infringement towards any copyright issue. seeking your cooperation. Thanks Extolmonica (talk) 18:23, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
