Barnstars, kitteh, and blinky things go below here, thank you!
Thank you all for a good run of over seven years as your favorite administrator. Bearian (talk) 21:29, 16 January 2015 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

 * Thank you,, I hope we disagreed without being disagreeable. Bearian (talk) 21:34, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

Your userrights
I've granted you rollback and autopatrolled, since I figured it might sometimes be inconvenient for you not to have those. I'd be happy to grant you any other rights that are included in the admin package; do you want any of them? Template editor and IPBE particularly come to mind, but I don't think I ought to grant them without asking first. Of course I'll happily remove rollback and/or autopatrolled if you don't want them. Nyttend (talk) 00:14, 17 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Those are fine,, and thank you for being proactive. Bearian (talk) 21:35, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

 * You are welcome! Bearian (talk) 21:35, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

Many thanks
For all that you have done over the years. Your contributions to the project are innumerable and you will be missed so best wishes to you and yours in RL. Cheers. MarnetteD&#124;Talk 01:45, 18 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Thank you from me as well, Bearian. I remember your RfA from all those years ago and while I respect your decision to step down from your adminship, it is a shame that your service as an administrator has come to an end...at least for now; I do hope that you'll pick the mop up again one day. Best. Acalamari 00:17, 20 January 2015 (UTC)
 * You are both welcome, and . Bearian (talk) 21:36, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

Liza Arzamasova
Hi Bearian,

You prodded Liza Arzamasova and I deprodded in the hope I could rescue it .... well I've AFD'd it here,

I originally buggered the ping up so I'm guessing the ping never worked,

Seeing as you prodded it I thought I should let you know :),

Anyway thanks, – Davey 2010 Talk 23:21, 23 February 2015 (UTC)

Requesting an RFA nomination
Hi Bearian,

I requested an RFA nomination back in December 2013, but you were busy at the time, so I decided to self-nominate. That went down like a lead balloon, but it's been 15 months since then. I've made another 10,000 edits and addressed the concerns of many of the opposers. Since you were willing to nominate me last time, would you be willing to do so now? Thanks, --Jakob (talk)  20:41, 23 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I'm too busy off-Wiki to do you justice. I will vote for you! Bearian (talk) 00:12, 24 March 2015 (UTC)
 * I've nominated now. --Jakob (talk)  01:24, 24 March 2015 (UTC)

Could you please have a look at voting for a keep or delete here? I only ask you because i noticed you had an opinion on another Islam-related AfD article. Thanks.--58.106.235.75 (talk) 08:47, 30 March 2015 (UTC)

Crispus
When I saw Articles for deletion/Fletcher Thornton was deleted for being a WP:BLP1E I saw WP:ONEEVENT. I saw that with  Crispus Attucks "Little is known for certain about Attucks beyond that he, along with Samuel Gray and James Caldwell, died "on the spot" during the incident." With no history and known for a single event, what made him notable? Couldn't he be merged into Boston Massacre ? Maybe there is a problem with WP policy on this one since everyone in the AFD and you believe it shouldn't be deleted or even nominated. BTW, my cousin just graduated from BHSS. CrazyAces489 (talk) 06:34, 14 April 2015 (UTC)
 * , sometimes WP:BLP1E is invoked when really the editors don't want an article about an accused criminal on Wikipedia, for whatever motives. While little is really known about Crispus Attucks, his contribution to the American Revolution received much notice in the 1970s during the run-up to the Bicentennial; he was lauded with scholarly and popular articles in the media, a museum was dedicated to his honor, and stamps were issued with his supposed likeness. All of that indicates notability.  Fletcher Thornton has had none of that attention in the past 40 years. Bearian (talk) 17:32, 14 April 2015 (UTC)
 * With little known about him, what can they really write about him? It seems strange, but maybe it is wikipolicies that are strange to me. CrazyAces489 (talk) 17:37, 14 April 2015 (UTC)
 * We don't know much about Mary Magdalen either, or lots of other historical figures, but their impact on history is clear; that's what makes them notable. Bearian (talk) 18:02, 14 April 2015 (UTC)
 * ONEEVENT makes exceptions for those who are historically significant. For example, Lee Harvey Oswald is essentially famous for only one event, but it was historically significant. I'd submit to you that a person who is historically significant enough to be featured on a US coin and have numerous (not just one) schools in multiples states named after them, they were probably notable.Niteshift36 (talk) 21:31, 14 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Niteshift, is there a reason why you're on almost every page I go to? It's like you want us to be besties? I can be ok with that, but i'm just wondering. CrazyAces489 (talk) 21:48, 14 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Actually, I'm not. But you can keep pretending that if you like. Niteshift36 (talk) 00:08, 15 April 2015 (UTC)
 * It sure is a lot of them.  CrazyAces489 (talk) 15:52, 15 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Considering that I have over 29,000 edits, coming across you on a handful of articles is hardly noteworthy. Especially when you remove the ones where we actually didn't cross paths. But considering you're coming to my page to post, you'd be fairly hard pressed to make yourself the victim. Niteshift36 (talk) 02:49, 16 April 2015 (UTC)

I was wondering if you could close a topic for me
Not sure if this a proper, think is best to ask first. Am I able to request you for a close for an RfC, we haven't had many interactions in the past and you seem to be a neutral editor and is uninvolved. Is there any policy that restricts this? <font color="DarkSlateGray">Valoem  talk  <font color="Green">contrib  22:34, 20 April 2015 (UTC)
 * The problem is that I'm too busy off-wiki/real life to be of much help. Thanks for the confidence in me. Bearian (talk) 23:50, 20 April 2015 (UTC)
 * No problem, :) Actually if there is no policy violation, is it possible for you to look at this subject? I feel that you would be neutral. <font color="DarkSlateGray">Valoem  talk  <font color="Green">contrib  00:54, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
