October 25 DYKs
I deleted the articles in accordance with DYK's usual policy: 1. The time limmit has expired. 2.With the exception of Petrus Johannes Waardenburg, all of the remaining articles had issues with sources, time limmit, or citations which made them inelligible. In the case of Petrus Johannes Waardenburg, you failed to address the concerns given by Daniel Case regarding plagiarism (although he used a kinder phrase) in the propper timeframe allotted. These DYK noms have actually extended a day longer than we usually let them go. I personally haven't reviewed your article so I don't know whether Daniel Case's concerns were valid or not. However, since you didn't respond to him I have to go with the reviewers assessment.Nrswanson (talk) 08:39, 3 November 2008 (UTC)


 * I'm afraid I would oppose such a move. Normally we retire anything that is older than a week. Typically, only two days extend below the expiring nom line. We had four when October 25 was there (partly due to Halloween throwing us behind). The extension to this late is already unusual. Questionable DYKs are thrown out usually a few days earlier than what I just did. However, since you were only given 24 hours to respond to the reviewer I am willing to give you the option to fix it quickly, as in right now, so that I can stick it into this next round of DYKs. Otherwise you are out of luck because I'm not putting the October 25 DYK section back. Sorry you are kind of getting the fuzzy end of the lollipop (in terms of time to fix problems) but we are having a major backload right now, so the pressure is on for us to get caught up. Nrswanson (talk)


 * It's all good. It looks like you fixed the problem so I went ahead and added it to the next update.Nrswanson (talk) 09:13, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

Robert Alexander Cameron
Dear Kresock,

Thanks for developing the bio of Luther Prentice Bradley. I've started a new bio called Robert Alexander Cameron. You've developed lots of articles on people related to the Civil War. You also have a userbox that says "This user loves the American Civil War". Can you develop the bio? If you can develop the bio and find a nice hook, it may qualify for the "Did you know".

Have a nice day. :-) AdjustShift (talk) 17:20, 4 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Good day AdjustShift! Began work on the page, giving it PD pic; give me a little time to flesh it out. I'm not a DYK hunter, but if anything added to it hooks well go ahead and nominate if you like. Hope you like the results! Kresock (talk) 23:26, 4 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I added info from my books and will go for online stuff next. Enjoy! Kresock (talk) 07:41, 5 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your help, I'll nominate the bio for the "Did you know", and you will also get credit. And how do you download images on Wikipedia? Have a nice day. :-) AdjustShift (talk) 09:39, 5 November 2008 (UTC)


 * I've nominated the bio for DYK. You can see the hook at Template_talk:Did_you_know. Have a nice day. :-) AdjustShift (talk) 10:26, 5 November 2008 (UTC)


 * You're quite welcome. To add a media file to the english Wikipedia, click the "Upload file" from the toolbox in the column to the left. Follow the instructions by providing dates, source, and copyright info. This last thing is very important, as Wikipedia is supremely conscience about copyright violations. What makes pics of American Civil War folks easier is most of them are in the U.S. public domain due to their copyright expiring in January 1923. Click on Cameron's photo to see its page and summary for an example, and remember if all of this info is not provided, it will most likely be deleted. Feel free to ask anything else. Kresock (talk) 14:30, 5 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Think I've done as much as I can for the general. Thanks for the ref formatting so everything is consistent. I'm gonna have MILHIST assess it so more eyes can be on the article. Kresock (talk) 01:21, 7 November 2008 (UTC)


 * It qualified for B-Class. I want to bring the bio to GA, your help will be invaluable. Have a nice day. AdjustShift (talk) 16:19, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Let me know what you need and I'll give it a go. Good day! Kresock (talk) 01:56, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

Thank you
For your vote at Roman Catholic Church. I am sorry to inform you that we failed FAC but will again be at peer review in a few weeks to sort things out. Hopefully we will make it through next time. We will be contacting all supporters and opposers of the article when we open the next peer review to hopefully get all issues addressed and hashed out before the next FAC try. Thanks again for your time and attention to this important article.  Nancy Heise   talk 01:21, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

BN board
BTW, the reason why I responded with the alternative wording was because left unchallenged, your post implied "the default position on this is that this case should fail because of the strong nature of the oppose." Whereas my position would be "the default position on this is that this case should pass because of the weak nature of the oppose." I agree, if this case stays in the 68-75% range, I do think the closing 'crats statement may be key in how RfA's are viewed in the future. A well crafted closing statement could pass/fail the candidate without setting precident, but that would require a well crafted comment. I am curious as to how this one will close (assuming it remains in that 68-75% range.)---Balloonman PoppaBalloon 20:41, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

Eco's civility
Hey AdjustShift, I know that in Aervanath's RfA, I cited Eco's civility during his RfA as one of the reasons his RfA failed. You indicated that he was civil, I just wanted to note that was the reason why I specified during his RfA. He killed his RfA when he responded to Dilligent Terrier. DT's oppose may have been justified/unjustified, but Eco's response to it significantly hurt Eco's chances---it was cited as a reason for opposes. Individuals/noms need to learn to shut up during their candidate's RfA---especially when they see what they think is an injustice. Finding that right balancing act between proactively defending yourself/your nom, and letting things slide is a challenging balancing act. (I've failed it in the past---take a look at Stephen Buxton's RfA where several people had to come to my talk page and tell me to shut up.) It is especially tough when you feel unjustly criticized, but it is one of those things where the system dictates certain behavior... or you get squashed. But again, my comment about Eco's civility was strictly in the confines of his particular RfA.---Balloonman PoppaBalloon 22:28, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I assume there must be a severe deficit of interesting subjects of conversation if you have to devote a section to gossip about me. If we are going to define incivility, I would also add that intentionally lying about people is far more egregious than vigourously defending one's honour.  My RfA was riddled with blatant falsehoods that I was "begging for barnstars," helping sockpuppets, lying, spamming, picking fights with people, etc.  In my book, bearing false witness against people is a definition of incivility -- defending oneself against attacks by people bearing false witness is not.  But then again, if we are talking about perceptions, let's not forget that when Balloonman first reviewed my record prior to the RfA, he claimed I needed "more experience in building the 'pedia" -- even though at the time I had already created 125 original entries (which, by my count, is 125 more than his current RfA protege has ever brought to the project). Ecoleetage (talk) 11:28, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Eco, this isn't gossip about you, it was a clafication on a tag from a current RfA discussion, where your RfA was brought up as an example of a good candidate who failed. You were a good candidate, this is born out by the fact that your RfA was flying through (you withdrew at 87-18--and that's after 6 people switched from support to oppose!)  Why did you withdraw?  Because, right or wrong, justified or unjustified, your response to various opposes impacted your RfA negatively.  You were seen as being uncivil and your defense turned six supporters into opposers and you saw the writing on the wall.  Your RfA is, the prototypical example of how a vigorous defense can kill an RfA---if you had just ignored the allegations against you or given quick simple, "I disagree with the above comment and here's why" responses, you would be an admin today.  Your RfA came up, not because we are gossiping about you, but rather because we are talking about the RfA process in general, and your RfA was cited as an example again of a good candidate who failed.  Oh yeah, I should point out, that *I* initially supported your RfA because I saw that you took my preliminary review to heart and worked on the concerns I had.  I did switch to oppose, but it wasn't because of lack of experience or article building.---Balloonman PoppaBalloon 15:38, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Since it was my action, I can speak as the expert: I voluntarily withdrew my RfA because the conversation was hijacked with outrageous claims and behavior (including an unprecedented demand to post off-Wiki communications as "evidence"). The fact that people were angry with my refutation, as opposed to inane claims of "begging" and "spamming" and what-not (only Cari bothered to stand up to that rubbish), suggested that we somehow wound up on the wrong side of the looking glass. My withdrawal came on the second day of the RfA -- I could not imagine five more days of non-stop nonsense (and, trust me, I fully understand the pressure that Wisdom89 stated when he voluntarily withdrew under very similar circumstances). I later showed the transcript of the RfA to a well-known writer who is a friend and who is not involved with Wikipedia, and he was aghast at the abuse I received (he asked me why I put myself through that -- damned if I could come up with a good answer).  I'll tell you what, BM -- if you think I am such a good candidate, you are welcome to nominate me for another go round. Between you and our mutual friend who is hosting this conversation, we are guaranteed at least two !votes! :) Ecoleetage (talk) 16:21, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
 * In all honesty Eco, I took a look at you about a week ago... I've been going through some old RfA's and hope to be noming some people with failed first attempts in the not to distant future. I think you probably should wait a few more months before considering it again.  Not because you aren't a good editor and valued member of the community, but rather because of the politics involved.  It would be your third run (granted one was way premature and closed almost immediately) but your last run is still somewhat fresh in people's minds---it's been barely 2 months since you last ran.  I think, because of the way the last RfA ended, that you would probably be best served waiting until at least 6 months have passed.  In a few months, I would be more than happy to reveiew you again and can't see any reason why I wouldn't be willing to nom ya.---Balloonman PoppaBalloon 16:40, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Hmmm, and I thought RfA was supposed to be no big deal. I guess someone should delete that page (I won't volunteer a suggestion of which tag to use, lest someone chime in with the stupid remark "Oh, he doesn't know G1 from G3" -- been there, done that). Ecoleetage (talk) 16:50, 14 November 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the feedback
Thanks for your input (and thanks for not opposing) at my successful Rfa. I'm already thinking about working on my content creation. Hopefully in a few months, I'll have passed the point where you would've !voted Support. If you have any more suggestions on how I can improve myself as an editor, I'd be happy to hear them. Happy editing!--Aervanath lives in the Orphanage 03:18, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
 * You're welcome. I'm glad that your RFA passed, and you'll be a great sysop. Have a nice day. :-) AdjustShift (talk) 08:22, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

Steedman pic
I determined the relative date of the image from his uniform. His shoulder straps in the main pic show the front star of the two-star Union major general, easier seen on the staff pic lower on Steedman's page. He was a major general from April 1864 until resigning in August 1866, hence the date range. The second pic on his page shows a single centered star of a Union brigadier general, to compare the two straps if you wish. Since this is sorta original research/conclusion on my part, I did not put the date range in the captions in Steedman's article, just on the image's page to help determine public domain & copyright status. If you want me to beef up the American Civil War section on James Sanks Brisbin I'd be happy to. Kresock (talk) 01:50, 17 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Dear Kresock, if I don't know the date, what should I do? Is "not known" acceptable? And, yes, I want you to contribute to the bio of James Sanks Brisbin. It may qualify for the "Did you know". AdjustShift (talk) 03:33, 17 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Is the pic of Brisbin? When I'm not sure of an image's date from the Civil War-era, then I date the pic the life span of the subject. For instance, if I did not know Steedman's promotion info then I would have used 'Photo taken between 1817 and 1883' to cover his entire life, instead of using 'between 1864 and 1866'. It still would make the pic in the U.S. public domain for Wikipedia copyright purposes, since it was first published before 1923 either way. I'll add two pic to Brisbin's page anyway, you can look at them to see how I dated them, and ask further questions if you need to. Kresock (talk) 20:34, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

Re: 2001 AHS list
Sorry, but I think the list is in very poor shape. The referencing is minimal, the content is rather minimal (compared to the similarly featured List of storms in the 2003 Atlantic hurricane season), and the formatting is poor (improper units, uninflated damage totals, date inconsistencies). The entire article needs a rewrite, since its current form was taken from the regular 2001 AHS article. The way to know that the list article is ready, is pretty much figuring what would be needed if it was to go on FAC. ♬♩ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 05:48, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

Good day AdjustShift! Did some work on this page, and I hope you like it! Gonna do Robert Francis Catterson when I have the time. Kresock (talk) 03:28, 24 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Done with Robert Francis Catterson. Hope you like it! Kresock (talk) 03:08, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

Dear Kresock,

I've nominated the bio of Robert Francis Catterson for DYK. See the hook at Template_talk:Did_you_know. You've added:

"He then became commander of the Arkansas Negro militia under Governor Powell Clayton, engaged in fighting against the Ku Klux Klan members operating there,[5] and also as a United States Marshal."

Do you have citation for this? I've added [5], but citation is also required for "and also as a United States Marshal".

Have a nice day. AdjustShift (talk) 03:23, 26 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Hello again AdjustShift! Warner, page 76, covers all of this paragraph, including him as a marshal and losing it and why. I didn't know exactly when he was a marshal, but I bet it could be found online somehow. Re-adding the online cite doesn't hurt at all. I didn't need the online cite anymore, since all of it came from Warner's book. I don't think we have to change anything, but I you wish I'll directly quote the marshal bit from the source. Let me know. Kresock (talk) 03:39, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

Racing in Illinois
I did some checking on that Bellville Enduro Team that keeps getting re-added to the article Racing in Illinois. It is a legit facility, so I re-added it back into the article, albeit in the facilities list. HOWEVER, I did leave out the promotional stuff, as well as the link that was put in there by the individual. From what I saw of the club/facility, they would make a great article on Wiki, if someone were to write it. While I was messing around there, I also added a few other motocross/atv parks. I only added ones that I could verify were AMA sanctioned.  JLG  2701  17:44, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

Science and technology in Mexico
The reason I dropped the preview template was when I saw one of the edits to Science and technology in Mexico, Descartes was wikilinked and Bacon was not. Rather than hassle you, I made sure Bacon had an entry and went to wikilink it, but you had already done so. The link you provided is an essay, not a policy: here's another opinion Template the regulars. It's also uncool to delete comments off talk pages -- see Talk_page_guidelines. Just wanted to let you know where I'm coming from. Thanks! Gerardw (talk) 21:19, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
 * "The reason I dropped the preview template was when I saw one of the edits to Science and technology in Mexico, Descartes was wikilinked and Bacon was not." Is that the reason to drop the preview template? You should have left a comment rather than dropping the template. I forgot to wikilink Bacon, but that happens when you are building an article. The essay you citied ("Template the regulars") is a very poorly written essay, and it misses the important information of "why you should use a template on the first place". And please don’t remind me about Talk_page_guidelines. I didn't erase you comment, I erased the preview template that you needlessly dropped on my talkpage.

I will try to make it better whenever I will get some reliable citing source. Ganesh Dhamodkar (Talk) 06:39, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

RfA thanks
Thank you for the trust you placed in me by supporting my RfA (which passed and, apparently, I am now an admin!). I will do my best to continue to act in a way that is consistent with the policies of wikipedia as well with our common desire to build and perfect this repository of human knowledge; and can only hope that you never feel that your trust was misplaced. Thanks again! --Regent's Park (Rose Garden) 00:10, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for noticing. Unfortunately, I've been in an editing slump due to off-wiki events, although I still manage to force myself into making a few substantial edits per day. Hopefully I will soon be able to resume my normal editing rate. Everyking (talk) 06:08, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

FLC nomination
Hi there, AdjustShift, I have commented on the Featured list nomination of the OZ GC recipients. The featured list candidates instructions at the top of the page state that Nominators who are not significant contributors to the list should consult regular editors of the list before nomination. (Emphasis mine). You did not do this in this case, and as far as I am aware, Abraham was still inviting comments on the list before nominating it. Woody (talk) 15:00, 8 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Hi AdjustShift. Woody is correct; I have this article up at Milhist ACR at the moment, and was still seeking advice from him on the list. I do not endorse this nomination, and I would ask that in future you do not nominate articles that you are not the primary contributor to. Cheers, Abraham, B.S. (talk) 21:21, 8 February 2009 (UTC)
 * The nomination has been withdrawn from the FLC nomination page. In the future, please ask for the primary contributor's opinion before nominating. Thank you, Dabomb87 (talk) 21:52, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

Well, no harm done, but please be mindful in the future. I'll let you know when I nom the article for FL, eh? Cheers, Abraham, B.S. (talk)
 * Oh, yes, as a member of Milhist, you are eligible to support, comment or oppose in the article's A-Class Review if you believe it meets the criteria, have suggestions of improvement regarding the critera or if you do not think it meets the criteria at all. Cheers, Abraham, B.S. (talk) 05:09, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

Hi AdjustShift. The list has passed its ACR, so I have gone and nominated it for FLC (see here) and, as I promised, I am notifying you as such. Cheers, Abraham, B.S. (talk) 12:24, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I'll comment on the list within the next few days. Have a nice day. :-) AdjustShift (talk) 13:15, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

Re:List
I've actually kind of forgotten about the Peace Prize list, I've been caught up in other projects. I'll try to add some better sources to the list. As for the FLRC, it's up to you. If you want to withdraw it, talk to Sephiroth BCR. -- Scorpion 0422 16:54, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

Edit summaries
Hi. I see you do lots of valuable work around this place. Please consider leaving more explanatory edit summaries - sometimes the reasons for your edit aren't properly explained by "erase" or "change" or similar and it's not always apparent from the edit itself why it's needed. Thanks very much. --Dweller (talk) 22:55, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
