Admin coaching
I looked and you do well but may suggest something. It is best to email or message irc with suggestions as I have found having been through rfa. Choose one for suggestion. I am sorry the edit counter is down, there is a script for the monobook.js. My monobook doesn't like it but yours might.--Dakota  ~ 01:34, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

OK, I didn't notice; I've been away for quite some time. Stick var ctJsCount = 1; anywhere into your monobook.js and the link will point to the JS version (unless you are in IE). Thanks for pointing it out. haz (us e r talk) 15:44, 22 April 2006

VandalProof Moderators
Thank you for your willingness in helping me out with VandalProof! You've now been made a moderator, so when you load VandalProof the next time, you should see 'Moderator' in front of your username, and you should also find a Moderator Tools menu. I've made a very basic page explaining what's expected of moderators and how to do certain tasks, which can be found here: User:AmiDaniel/VandalProof/ModeratorTools. If you change your mind and don't want to moderate, please contact me. Again, thanks! AmiDaniel (Talk) 23:57, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

your warning to AmiDaniel
how did you get to his talk page???... I would treat this as a potential bug, unless you figured out what you did. Eagle (talk) (desk) 01:30, 23 April 2006 (UTC) Same instructions as above, but try here User talk:Eagle 101/Sandbox.
 * Were you on his page?? Please try this as a test, go to User:Eagle 101/Sandbox and click the warning button... I think I know what you did, and how you did it with out realizeing it.Eagle (talk) (desk) 01:37, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Hold on, I have another test for you... give me one minute:-), my theory may still apply.Eagle (talk) (desk) 01:42, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
 * I should have asked earlier, were you on his talk page for any reason???Eagle (talk) (desk) 01:46, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

My theory was that since AmiDanial had so many sub talk pages, that had you mistakenly hit the warn button on any of them, the warning would carry up to his main page. (User talk:XXXXX/sub-something), the warning would carry up to (User:talk:XXXXX)
 * The reason why I thought of this was that on a program of mine, I encountered similar problems. Tell me what you think. Eagle (talk) (desk) 01:52, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

If I were you, revert your mistake on AmiDanial's talk page, or at least tell him it was your mistake, and not the software. (else he may think he has a new bug on his hands:-).Eagle (talk) (desk) 01:53, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

Good thing you did, because your test on my talk sandbox confirmed it was not the software, have a look, the warning is in the sandbox.
 * that problem can occur in programs that use "/" or "\" as a delimeter. (I have written two programs that did this).Eagle (talk) (desk) 01:56, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

Election staff

They can't vote because they need to give the illusion of neutrality; it gives the system credibility. Regards, --Cel es tianpower háblame 14:16, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Heh - I was trying my hand at sarcasm, sorry. Since they haven't voted, they are, in the usual sense of the word, neutral. --Cel es arialtianpower háblame 14:25, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I've run afoul of that a few times. Facial expressions and tonality are very important in humour. --Cel es tianpower háblame 14:34, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for supporting me in the AC elections. I Lov  E Plankton 17:27, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

Old Skool Esperanzial note
Since this isn't the result of an AC meeting, I have decided to go Old Skool. This note is to remind you that the elections are taking place now and will end at 23:50 UTC on 2006-04-29. Please vote here. Thanks. --Cel es tianpower háblame 20:42, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

Ref converter
It's a good idea to link back to the Ref converter when you're using it to make changes on articles, so that other people know what's going on. WikiRefs should use an auto edit summary (generated in the link it spits out with the modified Wiki source), but if you can't get that working, just use the supplied edit summary on the main page of the Ref converter. Thanks. -- Cyde Weys 00:51, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the VandalProof!
Hi! Thanks for granting me the VandalProof. However my name is still in the "awaiting approval" category, so I can't use it for the moment. Did you forget to transfer me? I'm sure you'll see to it, I was just wondering. Thanks again, and take care. Iron C hris |  (talk) 02:06, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

Arrondissements
You can see my edits at Arrondissements of the Aube département for my suggestions. Thanks. olivier 10:51, 26 April 2006 (UTC)


 * I have made 2 edits to your last version of Arrondissements of the Bas-Rhin département. The first one can probably be done by the bot. The second one may better be done manually. Otherwise, that's great! Thanks. olivier 14:04, 27 April 2006 (UTC)


 * I guess that you can just go ahead without the 2 links. olivier 14:27, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

Your comment at my WP:ER
Could you explain what you mean by your comment at WP:ER? Also, how far off RfA candidature am I? MyNam e IsNotBob  02:38, 27 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Interesting point you make, but there is no instruction to place at the top, and most talk pages as well as copyvio list downwards. I followed the instructions directly. Maybe this needs clarifying. MyNam e IsNotBob  12:38, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

VandalProof
This is where the user list is kept, the other list is pretty much just for show. So if you make a mistake adding a user, revert that page, as well as the other. Prodego talk  23:27, 27 April 2006 (UTC)


 * What user list? The one I linked to? Prodego  talk  23:33, 27 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Sure, do you want me to? Prodego  talk  23:37, 27 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Hmm that's odd, it usually loads up after a second or two, hold on, I'll check. Prodego  talk  23:41, 27 April 2006 (UTC)


 * I had no problem, the list loaded about 5 seconds after the awaiting approval section did, as normal. I think I can guess what happened. You didn't let it load the first time, then the second time you reloaded the page that you had just blanked, so there were no approved users. After I reverted all the users back, they loaded fine. That's my thoery. Prodego  talk  23:47, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

Trading Spaces
Dear Fetofs, I noticed that you had put your name down on the Trading Spaces program, requesting your page to be "pimped". I would be happy to do it, since it looks like it could be pretty cool. If you would like me to do it, respond on my talk page with any colour or layout suggestions you had in mind. Cheers, H ig hway Rainbow Sneakers 11:40, 29 April 2006 (UTC)


 * I'll start now, sorry for the delay. Cheers, H ig hway Rainbow Sneakers 22:12, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the welcome to Esperanza. I hope that I can make some valuable contributions to the community and make wikipedia a nice place to be. Blessings.--E va d b  14:19, 3 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-_  21:49, 3 May 2006 (UTC)

Should the Elo_Rating_System cabal mediation case be closed?
Hi I have noticed that User:Wolfkeeper has been ignoring the case these past several days, he is not taking a vacation because his user contributions clearly shows that he has been very active during this time. Shall the case be closed? Dionyseus 21:14, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

New User Page
Hey Fetofs, I've finished renovating your userpage (cringes), and I hope you like it. A few notes to keep in mind -


 * Those funky colour banners (I can recolour them if you wish) have links in the left hand corners, which I think should probably be able to stretch right along the page. Anyway, you can change the links to go to any Wikipedia page just by clicking on them, which is kind of cool.


 * You can re-arrange the boxes, but just watch out you don't take any other coding with you.


 * If there is anything else you want done, just ask! Cheers, H ig hway Rainbow Sneakers 16:01, 7 May 2006 (UTC)


 * I'm sorry, I don't know what you mean. H ig hway Rainbow Sneakers 17:07, 7 May 2006 (UTC)


 * It isn't doing that on mine, I'll try and fix it now. I lifted the banner straight from your user page. H ig hway Rainbow Sneakers 17:19, 7 May 2006 (UTC)


 * I'm sorry, I have no idea. H ig hway Rainbow Sneakers 17:22, 7 May 2006 (UTC)


 * There is a giant whitespace area. But they are at the bottom. H ig hway Rainbow Sneakers 17:30, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

Paleorthid
Aack. I am absolutely sure I messed up using VP. User:Avenue now shows with a BL and WL in red in the main space heading, and has a "- W" added to the user name for aticles in my watchlist space. So the W and B buttons are not innocent ways to Watch and uh Befriend someone. Can you assist me in making this right? -- Paleorthid 03:06, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

Nervermind - I figured it out as Blacklist and Whitelist. A little slow witted tonight... (relieved) -- Paleorthid 03:11, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

Hi Fetofs. I've responded to your message here. Thank you very much. ×Meegs 17:16, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

The WikiHangman Tournament has started!
Hello! This is a reminder that you have signed up for the WikiHangman Tournament. Matches have started, and you must move* within the next 24 hours in order to not have your match being forefeitted. Your games are found here.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me at my talk page. Good luck!

* "Moving" is defined as guessing a letter (if your first opponent has created their Hangman yet) or creating your Hangman to fit your word. Instructions for setting up the Hangman template is found here — Ian Manka Talk to me‼ 00:57, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

Heraldry Portal?
I've proposed the creation of an heraldic portal. If you think that such a thing would be helpful, you can voice your support HERE and hopefully we can get the heraldry category items organized better.--E <font color="Blue">va <font color="Red">d <font color="Red">b  18:01, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

WP:WHMT
Congratulations on the win. I suppose you win the match (per the rules), but I don't know if this is fair. I'd start a second game, and if your opponent doesn't respond to that, then you'll win two games, and take the match. Essentially, this first tournament is just a test run -- we look at the bugs in this edition, and use it to make new rules to fix the next version. We are using rules created in May 2005, without any formal testing. So, um, here we are now. We'll see how it goes.

As for a "timebank," how do you propose doing such a thing? How would it work? etc.

(And as for "we all have a real life" ... what real life ;)?) — Ian Manka Talk to me‼ 23:23, 10 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Sounds like a great plan, but do you think it is wise to change the format mid-tournament? — Ian Manka Talk to me‼ 22:32, 11 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I like the idea. For the second game of each current match, there will be a three-day timebank. Every move you make within the time limit will add an additional 24 hours to your timebank. Any thoughts on the technical aspects of said timebank?

If both players were inactive (as it was with CanadaGirl and Tv316, I think), the winner would be the one who was most active (in this case, CanadaGirl), despite both being inactive. — Ian Manka Talk to me‼ 03:14, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

Hi Fetofs - I'm very sorry to have disappointed your expectation in me, but it had become impossible for me to compromise my principles. I don't covet adminship at all, so it wasn't a difficult decision. However, I cannot tell you how greatly joyous I feel at the enthusiastic, wonderful support you expressed for me. I don't know how hard it will be to understand that your supports means extremely a lot to me. I thank you from my heart, and please let me know if I can ever be assistance or help in anything.

A reminder to both would be nice. However, if I were to choose between the two for the win, I'd have to give it to CanadaGirl, as she has moved more often than tv316. — Ian Manka Talk to me‼ 03:10, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
