== ArbCom 2018 election voter message ==

Tony, HELP! I do not know if you notice or not but Wikipediatrix has a very short fuse and seems to rub a lot of people the wrong way. We have articles on here that she has continually gotten involved in. When we have asked her to help us she became very confrontational and even claimed we were editing under different names. It got to the point that other editors were calling her down for her antics. I surely hope that this is not a regular problem that everyone has to deal with in thier dealings with her? She has tagged yet the same article on David L Cook for "cites" We went in and gave what we had. Such as a quote from Bob Hope. That comment was made at a banquet full of comedians and not recorded by television or radio. We have tried to explain these things and she still comes right back and tags everything again. I do not know if this is all she has to do all day but it certainly is very hard to deal with someone who has this kind of agenda. We are not Wiki savy and do not claim to be. We have gone in when we check these things to see if everything is done right and if not we try to fix them. I do not know how to cite the things she is talking about. Most of the things that are said between celebrities or at functions are not things that are citable in our opinion. Could you please help us? We need to get this woman off of our backs! She is very nasty. Thanks Daylon Ware [[User:IAMAS Corporation|IAMAS Corporation]] 9:14, 2006,25,07 (UTC)

==Eluchil404's RfA==

Thank you for taking the time to express an opinion in [[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Eluchil404|my recent request for adminship]]. I have withdrawn my self-nomination because there seemed little prospect for further productive discussion or the formation of a consensus to promote. Many commentators offered constructie critisism that I will use to improve myself as a user. Others suggested that the nomination was premature and that a re-nom in a few months would be more likely to gain consensus. I want to thank you in particular for pointing out specific areas where my contributions were deficient as that shows me where I should work to be a better editor.

== [[Mohit]] for speedy deletion ==

You are currently noted as a participant of the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Environment/Climate change task force]]. With much of the activity in this task force about ten years ago, I think it's time for a revival. Global warming is getting a lot of attention in the media now and it's therefore important our articles are up-to-date, accurate and neutral.

This [[Mohit|article]] seems a purely imaginative narration by the author. This may look good in a story book, but not in an encyclopedia. BTW, I did a search on google to confirm my suspicions.--[[User:Babub|^Babub→]][[User talk:Babub|<font color = "DarkBlue">Talk</font>]] 12:35, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

I've updated the task force page and the to do list and invite you to have a look at the page again, add something to the TO DO list or start collaborating by improving one of our many articles. If climate change has lost your interest, feel free to remove your name from the participants list.

One claimed to be [[user:sceptre | Sceptre ]] and two congratulated my on not snorting [[marijuana]] today. The history speaks for itself:

You did THAT to the '''[[Gamergate]]''' article—in ''2015''?!?!!! That is one ''well deserved'' barnstar, lemme tell you! The nostalgia! My best friend and I were following ''[[The Jimquisition]], [[Unskippable]], [[Zero Punctuation]]'' and other then-''[[The Escapist (magazine)|The Escapist]]'' fare of the time, several days a week, so we saw that blow up real-time!

==BLESS YOU==

Thank you for speedy deleting [[Jim Shapiro]]. I have been accused of sock-puppetry (I am not my husband and we are not one except in the eyes of the Church, and not even there since we are Jewish.) I have also been accused of calling my family 'consensus', although 11 different independent editors thought this article should be deleted. It is true that several attorneys weighed in on this, other than Gfwesq and me (who are both attorneys), for good reason. WIkipedia is not a vehicle to bash lawyers. I had not even heard of Jim Shapiro until I came across the 'article'. There is good reason why we haven't - this lawyer is 'famous' only in his own local area, and 'Overlawyerd' perhaps, since 'Overlawyered' sole aim is to disparage lawyers and they look for lawyers to criticize. Thank you again. You restored my faith in Wikipedia. [[User:Jgwlaw|jawesq]] 17:50, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

Hi, FYI the climate change task force is now a stand-alone project ([[WP:WikiProject Climate change]]). You were once listed as active at the task force but from your contribs it appears you are in (semi?) wiki retirement. I've therefore taken liberty to move your name to the inactive list, but feel free to rejoin us any time!

Obviously, I'm aware of my own good faith or lack thereof, but since the perception of my edits is seems to count more than anything, it will be helpful in the future to know if my actions are going to be seen as trolling or not, and since you seem at least more rational than other editors I've encountered, your opinion would be appreciated.

Hi Tony,

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your [[Help:edit summary|edit summary]] or on [[Talk:List of locations in Pirates of the Caribbean|the article's talk page]].

You'll get no argument from me on that one, as keeping the thing red seems almost impossible, but I doubt you'll convince everybody of that... Good luck! Best wishes, [[User:Xoloz|Xoloz]] 15:04, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed deletion process]], but other [[Wikipedia:deletion process|deletion process]]es exist. In particular, the [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|speedy deletion]] process can result in deletion without discussion, and [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion|articles for deletion]] allows discussion to reach [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] for deletion.<!-- Template:Proposed deletion notify --> [[User:TTN|TTN]] ([[User talk:TTN|talk]]) 12:25, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on [[:Gradient Analytics]] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#A7|section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], because the article appears to be about a company, corporation or organization that does not [[Wikipedia:Credible claim of significance|credibly indicate]] how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Articles|criteria for speedy deletion]], such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about [[Wikipedia:Notability|what is generally accepted as notable]].

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may '''contest the nomination''' by [[:Gradient Analytics|visiting the page]] and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay.

== [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|Proposed deletion]] of [[:File:Svedeesh Cheff.png]] ==

First off, my apologies for [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk%3ARequests_for_comment%2FKelly_Martin2&diff=69957391&oldid=69953943 my edit] in response to [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk%3ARequests_for_comment%2FKelly_Martin2&diff=69904984&oldid=69904663 your edit] of [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk%3ARequests_for_comment%2FKelly_Martin2&diff=69885439&oldid=69884385 my comment]. I clearly did so to make a [[WP:POINT]], and to express that we should have taken this to our talk pages instead of the RfC. My orginal comment was an immediate pop culture reference train of thought as I read the thread. I'm a fan of [[Wikiquote:A Few Good Men|''A Few Good Men'']], as shown [[Wikiquote:User:MrDolomite|on my wikiquote user page]]. It was intended as an example to you specifically, and to the group as a whole (myself included), how the RfC has, and continues to be an example of how not to discuss issues. I'm having visions of all of us ending up using such sibling backseat logic as "Did not," "Did so," "I'm telling," "Stop touching me," and "You're on my side." Anyway, I have replaced the three edits above with [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:Requests_for_comment/Kelly_Martin2&diff=prev&oldid=70038032 this final one], which I hope conveys a disagreement between editors in better tone. I appreciate that you did not add to or re-remove the 3rd edit. That definitely would have [[WP:TROLL|fed my inner troll]] and not resulted in any productive discussions of the case at hand. So, in the spirit of [[WP:AGF|assuming good faith]] and as an apology, I give you this [[WP:TEA]].&nbsp;&mdash; [[User:MrDolomite|MrDolomite]] | [[User talk:MrDolomite|Talk]] 16:27, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

Can I ask what you consider you to be a threshold at which someone is no longer an inexperienced editor? [[User:Rootology|rootology]] ([[User talk:Rootology|T]]) 19:11, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

== A goat for you! ==

: There isn't a hard threshold, but if for instance you look at the first ten editors endorsing Aeon's outside view you see:

:# {{User|Aeon1006}} Very few edits before April.

:# {{User|MrDolomite}} No edits before March. Few edits overall.

:# {{User|Remember}} Very few edits before March.

:# {{User|Mecu}} No edits before June.

:# {{User|Attic_Owl}} No edits before three weeks ago. Blocked as a sock of Karmafist.

:# {{User|Dknights411}} Obviously an experienced editor.

:# {{User|Herostratus}} Obviously an experienced editor. Administrator.

:# {{User|Z4ns4tsu}} No edits before March.

:# {{User|Kwh}} Obviously an experienced editor.

:# {{User|Masonpatriot}} Obviously an experienced editor.

[[File:Boer Goat (8742860752).jpg|left|150px]]

: So six out of the ten are very new. One is apparently a sock puppet and has been blocked. Just one of them seems to be an administrator (but I didn't check that too closely). This contrasts strongly with those who endorsed Kelly's response. --[[User talk:Tony Sidaway|Tony Sidaway]] 19:35, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
