My RFB
Thank you for your comments in my RFB. Since it was only at 64%, it was a shoo-in to be unsuccessful, so I withdrew. I didn't want it to run until its scheduled close time because my intent in standing for RFB was to help the bureaucrats with their workload, not give them one more RfX to close. Through the course of my RFB, I received some very valuable feedback, some of it was contradictary, but other points were well agreed upon. I have ceased my admin coaching for now to give me time to revamp my method. I don't want to give up coaching completely, but I'm going to find a different angle from which to approach it. As for my RFA Standards, I am going to do some deep intraspection. I wrote those standards six months ago and I will slowly retool them. This will take some time for me to really dig down and express what I want in an admin candidate. If, after some serious time of deep thought, I don't find anything to change in them, I'll leave them the way they are. I'm not going to change them just because of some community disagreement as to what they should be. Will I stand for RFB again in the future? I don't know. Perhaps some time down the road, when my tenure as an administrator is greater than one year, if there is a pressing need for more active bureaucrats, maybe. If there no pressing need, then maybe not. Useight (talk) 03:08, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

Thanks
Hello. Many thanks for your kind message on my talk page. I am equally glad that you did not leave wikipedia in April: I hadn't even realised you were thinking of doing so. Adding content to a much-viewed page like Europe is particularly difficult, but nevertheless after the dust settles it is quite rewarding. :) Cheers, Mathsci (talk) 11:45, 15 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Oh good, I hope that you will continue to add much valued contributions, and not be put off by the actions of some editors. Yes I learned about adding content to much viewed pages the hard way! Ah well maybe I will come back to Europe some time but I think for now I will stick to more out of the way, neglected pages! Harland1 (t/c) 12:04, 15 June 2008 (UTC)
