Your RfA
I've added some questions to your RfA. When you have a minute, I'd appreciate if you would take a look at them. Thanks. JoshuaZ 01:10, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

Sorry
Sorry, my machine's lagging and I was trying to use my anti-vandal tool to rollback with a warning. I was also trying to restore your version of your user page, but, shockingly, I started lagging again. -- Omicronpersei8 (talk) 01:23, 1 August 2006 (UTC)


 * No problem. No harm done. :) G . H  e  01:23, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

Thank you.



 * No problem. :) G . H  e  02:07, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

"Wikifriend"
Don't know if I qualify as a wikifriend, but I do admire your work in here. Peace, Kukini 00:21, 4 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks! I really appreciate it. :) G . H  e  01:26, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * OK...cool...I didn't even know I was in there!!! Kukini 01:28, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

Thank you
Thank you for reverting the disruptive and offensive edits to my talk page. You fixed it before I even saw it :) -User:Brian1979 (talk • contribs)


 * You're welcome. :) G . H  e  20:02, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

Yo
I was curious about Esperanza and the Green E and all that. What's up, eh? Attic Owl 05:36, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

You've got a Thank you card!
  Open your card! Dear GHe, thank you so much for your beautiful words, your kidness and your trust in me. My Request for Adminship is finally over, and the support and appreciation that the community has gifted me will stick in my mind as long as I live. I have no way to properly express how grateful I am to you for all you've done for me, and all I can tell you is, I'll try not to disappoint you nor anyone else with my use of the buttons... and if I mess up, make sure to come here and give me a good yell! :) Seriously, tho, if you ever need my help, either for admin-related stuff or in any other way, you'll always be welcome to message me, and I promise I'll try my very best. Despite I've never had the pleasure of talking to you until now, dear Ghe, I really think the best gift that my RfA has given me is to meet people like you, as I see that you're a great editor and an awesome person. From this day on, I also consider you my friend, and I'd be happy and honored if you accept me as your own. I also know that you must be concerned regarding your own RfA right now; I'm confident you will make it, and I hope to see you proudly wielding the mop in no time :) Go for it! With a big hug, your friend,  P h a e d r i e l ♥  tell me  

Elaborating on my RfA vote
GHe, I'm not sure which way your RfA will go, but I still want to elaborate on my RfA vote before the flood of comments one way or the other. To me, what an admin candidate wants to do has a lot to do with whether they should be an admin. Others say (and I have no reason to doubt) that you are deliberative and will accept criticism. However, I think deleting items from CAT:CSD is a special task because, unless the page creator knows where to find the deletion log (which took me months to figure out), it's impossible even to ask the deleting admin why it was deleted. I've done a lot of new page patrol, and even now I can make some serious mistakes. Others have made similar blunders: 1, 2. I was unimpressed with your answers because they essentially regurgitated policy, where the real situation can be more complicated. WP:CSD, for example, is quite controversial and I've found it difficult to apply fairly. I think if you spend a couple of months doing new page patrol or participating in AfDs (or both), I would be happy to support.--Kchase T 19:00, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

RfA closed
I am sorry to inform you that your Request for Adminship (RfA) has failed to reach sufficient consensus for promotion, and has now been delisted and archived. Please do not look upon this outcome as a discouragement, but rather as an opportunity to improve. Try to address the concerns raised during your RfA and, in a few months' time, resubmit your request. Thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia in this capacity! Redux 22:00, 8 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Sorry about your RfA, GHe. It was so close, too!  Ah, well, at least it went better than mine! --Mr. L e fty Talk to me! 22:39, 8 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Close but no cigar. Good luck in another few months.  Georgewilliamherbert 23:57, 8 August 2006 (UTC)


 * I'm sorry the vote ended up a few supports short. Man, it was a close one. I wish you better luck next time, GHe. Take care, -- Firsfron of Ronchester 02:12, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

Although I stand by my reasons for voting against, I'm sorry (and surprised) to see you didn't succeed. If you stand again in a few months, please drop me a line at my Talk page. --Dweller 10:08, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

 * &Yea I definetly encourage you to run for adminship in the future. You seem to have a good head on your shoulders, and with a few adjustments you'll get through the door without a problem. AdamBiswanger1 19:16, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

Thank you
Thanks for my barnstar! As for my speed, I guess we can thank the anti-vandal tool I'm using. Keep up the good work yourself! -- Omicronpersei8 (talk) 02:22, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

Protecting
How do we protect pages under attack by vandals?

Just trying to help... —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Amichels (talk • contribs) 00:15, 19 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Protection can only be performed by administrators under necessary situations. However, the featured article is usually not protect, or temporarily semi-protected for a short period of time in extreme cases. Placing the protection tag only notifies user that the page is protected, but does not actually protect the page. G . H  e  00:26, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

Harry Potter Vandalism.
Just got a popup associated with my IP. After seeing this, and having zero interest in Harry Potter, I decided to register and tell you about my ISP. I live in Ireland and get DSL through BT Ireland who use dynamic IP's for their home customers. So Im pretty positive that the original vandal has another IP at this stage so your warning got passed to me by being the current owner of the IP.

Well just thought you would like to know.

Goodnight(morning?)

GIen's RfA: Thank you!
'''PS: YES YOU'RE RIGHT HARRY POTTER USES A BROOM! (BUT GOOD MOPS ARE HARD TO FIND!!)'''
