Yay for barnstars

Anime POV tag
May I inquire as to what portion of the anime article seems POV to you? I had thought the article was in good condition but it is mostly maintaned by crazed otaku-types (like myself...<_<  >_>) so it may have veered in the wrong direction. What part of the article inspired you to add the POV tag? Finite 21:49, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Never mind, I wrote the above before you stated your concerns on the discussion boards, I'll try and fix some of that.Finite 21:53, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

Hello again, Covington, I attempted to clean up the Anime article a bit. How'd I do?Finite 22:39, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Does that mean you think it can lose the tag now? Finite 23:02, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
 * OK. Finite 23:55, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

May the Force be with you.
Dear ,
 * Thanks for voting on my RFA! I appreciate your faith in me, and was overwhelmed by the positive response to my RFA; for it shows that at least I'm doing something right. :) I've started working to improve myself already, and I hope that next time, things run better, and maybe, just maybe, one day we can bask on the shores of Admintopia together. Thanks and cheers, _-M   o   P-_  21:53, 3 May 2006 (UTC)

WP:ESP/UPA templates
As you did the spamming last time, do you know what/where all the templates are? I know about Template:Upajudge, as you put it on my talk page last time :) The contest is starting again tommorrow, so feel free to sign up again, but either way it would be nice to know what the templates all are (and then we can link to them from the UPA page so we don't have this problem every time!) Petros471 08:32, 11 May 2006 (UTC)


 * We've now found some more (see Wikipedia_talk:Esperanza/User_Page_Award). Is the one at the bottom of your sandbox one that exists as a template or is that one you made? If so could you make that into a template as it would be nice to have one for runners up. Cheers, Petros471 13:22, 11 May 2006 (UTC)


 * I've moved the message for you (as it doesn't really make sense out of this conversation thread). Yes, please do create a template for that. I've probably got a couple of minor wording change suggestions but that can be done after the template is created. Petros471 13:39, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

Rome
Hey Covington, any idea why there's been such little improvement made to the Rome article? I've seen little done other than what I've done myself and a few minor grammatical corrections by someone else. Are we the only two working on it? Sicilianmandolin 17:13, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

No problem, what are fellow maintainers for right? I had a few minutes of extra time on my hand so I thought I might as well do it.--Steven 00:35, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

Covington, thanks for signing up for the Esperanza User Page Contest. The judges have received the fifteen entries, and are ready to start judging. The judges will take a week to complete the judging process, and they will contact all the participants when the judging is done.

VandalProof 1.2 Now Available
 After a lenghty, but much-needed Wikibreak, I'm happy to announce that version 1.2 of VandalProof is now available for download! Beyond fixing some of the most obnoxious bugs, like the persistent crash on start-up that many have experienced, version 1.2 also offers a wide variety of new features, including a stub-sorter, a global user whitelist and blacklist, navigational controls, and greater customization. You can find a full list of the new features here. While I believe this release to be a significant improvement over the last, it's nonetheless nowhere near the end of the line for VandalProof. Thanks to Rob Church, I now have an account on test.wikipedia.org with SysOp rights and have already been hard at work incorporating administrative tools into VandalProof, which I plan to make available in the near future. An example of one such SysOp tool that I'm working on incorporating is my simple history merge tool, which simplifies the process of performing history merges from one article into another. Anyway, if you haven't already, I'd encourage you to download and install version 1.2 and take it out for a test-drive. As always, your suggestions for improvement are always appreciated, and I hope that you will find this new version useful. Happy editing! --AmiDaniel (talk) 02:14, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

Happy Birthday

Smile


has smiled at you! Smiles promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better. Spread the WikiLove by smiling to someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Smile to others by adding {{subst:smile}}, {{subst:smile2}} or {{subst:smile3}} to their talk pages. Happy editing!

I was just thinking about you, and what a nice person you are, and I just thought I'd smile at you and your constant niceness. I wrote this message using touch typing, but it is so hard, isn't it? I wouldn't have the patience to teach myself to do it properly, I have to concentrate on it so much, I can barely remeber what I've just written! I'll stop now. Have a nice day!

Ancient Greek Wikisource
I understand from your userboxes you're interested in Ancient Greek. I've submitted a proposal to add an Ancient Greek Wikisource on Meta, and I'd be very grateful if you could assist me by either voting in Support of the proposal, or even adding your name as one of the contributors in the template. (NB: I'm posting this to a lot of people, so please reply to my talkpage or to Meta) --Nema Fakei 20:08, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

Esperanza
Hi Cov, I noticed your name on the Esperanza alert page. While it wasn't exactly clear what was on your user page that was bugging you, I think it's a safe bet to assume that it's the shake up at CJ/Concordia. Just wanted to leave a note of support, thanking you for what you've done to try to improve Wikipedia. I agree with some of the criticisms, but I also find some of them over-the-top and excessive. Regardless of what happens to the project, I hope that you'll keep sight of your goal of maintaining civility and a cool head in editing. Let me know if I can help in any way.

Editor Review
Hi! My name is Evan Robidoux (you may have heard of me: I'm a member of WikiProject The Elder Scrolls like you.) I noticed your name was on the editor review page, so I decided to review you. You can read my comments by clicking the link I gave you. You are doing a good job so far. Keep it up! :) -- Evan Robidoux 01:13, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

 Concordia Newsletter Community Justice is no more. It has been reformed to Concordia. Membership has been transferred.

Concordia is an organization of editors on Wikipedia that strive to encourage civility and fair treatment among all editors in the Wikipedian community, from the Wikignome to the Wikiholic.

We currently need help in getting going, and making the community understand our aims. We work for civility. Nothing more, nothing less.

If you have ideas, let us know at our talk page, or on the IRC channel. We aim to spread civility in every way we can.

RfA Notification
Hello! I noticed that you have interacted with User:Osbus who is currently undergoing an RfA and thought that you might be interested in participating at Requests_for_adminship/Osbus. You have received this message without the endorsement of the candidate involved, and this is not a solicitation of support, it is only an effort to make RfA discussions better (for more information see user:ShortJason/Publicity). Thank you in advance for your participation. ShortJason 22:02, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

userpage code
Just FYI, I copied some of your userpage code to possibly use on WikiProject Figure Skating (I'm messing around with it here, but don't look at that.. it's just random code right now. :) --F a ng Aili talk 21:02, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Re: your P.S., that is sort of complicated. I am part Japanese, but I pretty much consider myself a basic "white" person. And I have studied Chinese, which is why I have a Chinese name. Confused yet? :) --F a ng Aili talk 14:42, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

A short Esperanzial update
As you may have gathered, discussions have been raging for about a week on the Esperanza talk page as to the future direction of Esperanza. Some of these are still ongoing and warrant more input (such as the idea to scrap the members list altogether). However, some decisions have been made and the charter has hence been amended. See what happened. Basically, the whole leadership has had a reshuffle, so please review the new, improved charter.

As a result, we are electing 4 people this month. They will replace JoanneB and Pschemp and form a new tranche A, serving until December. Elections will begin on 2006-07-02 and last until 2006-07-09. If you wish to run for a Council position, add your name to the list before 2006-07-02. For more details, see Esperanza/June 2006 elections.

Tip of the day project update
Just trying to get things better organized around there. Toward that end, I've created a task list template for the project. If all the members of the project placed it on their user page, we could all keep in touch more easily (with announcements, alerts, etc.). It, and the latest announcements can be found at:
