 * I've long felt that my talk page had an excess of class, and that it prevented my sarcasm from suitably manifesting itself on Wiki. Nosebagbear (talk) 22:13, 6 August 2018 (UTC)
 * haha, would love to see more of your witty side around. also I suggest using Auto WP:Archive, thats a menial job best left for bots to take care of, anyway its your call. cheers. -- D Big X ray   22:16, 6 August 2018 (UTC)
 * The comment above was due to Articles for deletion/Tishnagi and yes i did read the translation. :D D Big X ray  11:22, 7 August 2018 (UTC)
 * indeed! Though this AfD's most recent comment that I've just replied to is its own interesting argument Nosebagbear (talk) 11:35, 7 August 2018 (UTC)

- cheers, you're welcome. Remember The Teahouse is where many of the most helpful, (far more than I!), and very patient, wikipedians spend their time, which includes helping with new articles and the endless morass of wiki's policies. I still use it a few times a month when I get stuck. Nosebagbear (talk) 19:36, 12 August 2018 (UTC)

 * - thank you, that's really appreciated! - I invested a staggering amount of time into the activity and it's nice to see the article as a more helpful guide than that much promo. I also commend you on your efficiency, I didn't even have to move my barnstar! ;) Nosebagbear (talk) 21:46, 22 August 2019 (UTC)
 * My pleasure, haha! Cleanup in my view takes more time than adding more material, so yeah very much needed. :D Hope you'll keep contributing to that page and the list of Model United Nations conferences page!

Service award
This has been long due. Thanks for being such an amazing all round contributor. -- D Big X ray ᗙ  17:31, 17 August 2019 (UTC)


 * - that's very appreciated, though I feel a bit ridiculous claiming my technical length as an editor - 18 months ago I'd only made about 150 edits! But I was really happy to get my GA, I'd fallen a bit away from content creation so it was nice to do some more. Nosebagbear (talk) 17:55, 17 August 2019 (UTC)
 * I would not worry about technicalities. It's hard to stay away from Wikipedia even if you are not editing, unless ofcourse you are in a cave, (in that case, you will have better things to worry about). IMHO, you have already compensated the years with your edit counts. So be proud. I had read your recent rfa votes and was glad to see us sitting on the same side  of the fence, no matter which. Shows that we think similarly. Congratulations on your GA. It makes you a step ahead of me since I am yet to get one. I will be glad to collaborate if you find yourself overwhelmed with a GAR. Cheers. -- D Big X ray ᗙ  18:11, 17 August 2019 (UTC)

You are now an administrator
Pursuant to your successful request for adminship, you are now an administrator. I took the opportunity to review the major points of opposition. The founded concerns largely centered around your understanding of policy and experience in dispute resolution and content creation spheres. Please be sure to consider and address these concerns as you step into your new role. I would also encourage you to review the Administrators' guide and subscribe to the administrators' newsletter. Feel free to let me know if you have any questions! Happy adminning, –xenotalk 19:32, 3 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Congrats! As the person who is the second newest sysop there are no doubt many others who can offer you better help and advice but if I can be of any assistance you know where to find me. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 19:35, 3 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Thank you thrice over - for your support in the RfA, but also your warming words 2 days ago and for your offer above. You also win a cookie for your spot on estimate. Nosebagbear (talk) 19:53, 3 October 2019 (UTC)


 * Nosebagbear, if you'd like some practice with Special:UserRights/Nosebagbear, you can remove the redundant userrights on your account. –xenotalk 19:39, 3 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Happy adminning :) WormTT(talk) 19:58, 3 October 2019 (UTC)

Your RFA

 * Welcome to the admin corps. CAPTAIN RAJU (T) 19:42, 3 October 2019 (UTC)

Thanks!

 * Thank you all! Right now, I want to thank each group in my RfA: those who showed such a level of trust; but also those that opposed or balanced the two - none of the objection points in my RfA are disputable - they all state clear issues to work on. Which I shall.


 * I've created a lessons learnt (and to to be learnt) page that I hope to work on in the next couple of days. I may pester a couple of hopefully willing volunteers for some specific help on that, and a few more when I actually turn to mopping.


 * It might be a little delayed - my next 4 days involve a family wedding, a piece of minor surgery, and me moving house. Thus making it the 11 days I'm most likely to turn into a film. Thanks again, all! :) Nosebagbear (talk) 19:46, 3 October 2019 (UTC)


 * I also conducted an RFA post-mortem, feel free to adapt the structure for your own. –xeno</b><sup style="color:#000">talk 19:53, 3 October 2019 (UTC)


 * - that's excellent, thank you, should make it much clearer Nosebagbear (talk)


 * Congratulations on adminship. You will do great with the mop. I hope to see you around and work with you. <b style="color: blue">AmericanAir88</b>(<b style="color: darkred">talk</b>) 20:34, 3 October 2019 (UTC)


 * Thanks, and thank you for your question Nosebagbear (talk) 20:43, 3 October 2019 (UTC)

This is good news on which to end my wiki-day! Welcome to the ranks of the mop-handlers! Yunshui <sup style="font-size:90%">雲 <sub style="font-size:90%">水 21:21, 3 October 2019 (UTC)

 * Thank you! Nosebagbear (talk) 08:34, 4 October 2019 (UTC)

A belated congratulations

 * - thank you! No hard feelings, as well as being legitimate, the oppose list was also generally amazingly pleasant. I definitely plan to reach out to a few of the opposes after I've done a first draft of my washup. Currently moving house so lots of juggling atm! Nosebagbear (talk) 16:08, 8 October 2019 (UTC)

RfA WashUp v1.0 Done
I've just concluded a first draft of my RfA consideration of lessons learnt and lessons to be learnt.

I've covered 4 main issues and some early stage thoughts on what I can do. Please feel free to either just comment on it directly, or here, or by email.

Thank you again to those who provided areas to look at and to those who gave some advice on how to go about doing that.

In appreciation
Plus for having a thoughtful user page. (Even if it contains a typo which drives me crazy.) Gog the Mild (talk) 12:47, 6 March 2020 (UTC)


 * Thanks ! Now i've spent 5 minutes checking it over and I can't see the typo which is irking me greatly - I've clearly bedded it into my memory. What is it? Nosebagbear (talk) 12:58, 6 March 2020 (UTC)
 * I even put the same typo into my message. You need to close the bracket after "(Interesting AfC Graph". (If I was being really picky, "interesting should start with an 'i'. That early exposure to GoCE went deep!) I didn't mean to irk you, but it is surprising how difficult it is to check one's own work. I am rubbish at it. Gog the Mild (talk) 13:03, 6 March 2020 (UTC)
 * - well now I've had to misbehave and refactor your comment (after deciding that since you'd written the entire sentence in a bracket, the grammar should also be inside). I've closed that bracket, but decided that the "Interesting" was part of a title...and I really disagree with the use of sentence capitalisation on Wikipedia! Nosebagbear (talk) 13:10, 6 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Ha, ha! ANI for you then. Don't get me started on capitalisation. As I wrote a little while ago elsewhere "Arguing with Wikipedians about grammar is a sucker's game because they almost always turn out to be—or to be indistinguishable from—self-righteous sixteen-year-olds possessing infinite amounts of free time." I go with the "I am only following policy" defence. Gog the Mild (talk) 13:21, 6 March 2020 (UTC)

'Tis the season
Enjoy the holiday season, and thanks for your work to maintain, improve and expand Wikipedia. It's been a wild year, and I wanted to take a moment to thank you for your contributions and for the role you play in making Wikipedia as good as it can be. It was a pleasure interacting with you this year. I'm glad that I got to know you this year-- you're doing great work here, and are someone I look up to. I wish you and your loved ones all the best this December and in the years to come. Cheers, Eddie891 Talk Work 21:15, 24 December 2020 (UTC)
