Henrik's RfA thanks!
Thanks for supporting my RfA, it closed today with a final tally of 39 supports, 1 oppose and 1 neutral. As always, if you ever see me doing anything which would cause you to regret giving me your support, let me know. henrik • talk  18:47, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

Majorly
Hey Pedro, just noticed your vote at Majorly's RfA. Considering that nigh on 100 editors have lauded Majorly for his nobility and dedication to the project by going through another RfA and risking his tools, I thought I would come and ask you to reconsider. I don't think it's really about ego, I think it's about making sure the community still supports him. GlassCobra 14:09, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Hi GlassCobra, and congrats on the +sysop bit! Regarding my neutral at Majorly's RfA I can only cite this "Requests for adminship (RfA) is the process by which the Wikipedia community decides who will become administrators". Majorly had the +sysop bit and gave it up. Bearly four weeks later he wants it back and goes to the community to decide. The last admin who relinquished was User:^demon who just went to WP:BN and asked for it back. I have no issue with Majorly, but I see sod all value in his RfA per my quote above. He has my support for the tools but I object to the way he's asked for them back. If he's not sure he's up to the job and needs the community to confirm he is then perhaps it's better he doesn't get the bit back. I believe he's a great admin, per my comment, but I can't follow the herd in a support over a waste of time. 100+ votes = 100 + WP:CSD pieces of crap that could have been deleted instead. Cheers .... !! Pedro : Chat  20:19, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

Question
Hi, why did you remove this user? I had just given him a final warning and was leaving him listed so other admins checking AIV could keep an eye on him also. You didn't block the IP, so I'm curious. Knowledge Of Self |  talk  22:59, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
 * You said you were keeping an eye on him, so I took it down to make room for the other entries that have been coming in. However, you're correct, I should have left him up. My apologies, you're more than welcome to put him back if you like. GlassCobra 23:16, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
 * No worry, I was just wondering. No need to re-add him, I've been checking, and he appears to have stopped. Like I said I was just curious. Thanks for the reply. Knowledge Of Self  |  talk  23:20, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Sure thing. I'm new, so give me a little bit of slack. ;) GlassCobra 23:22, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
 * So how are you liking the new tools? Have you zapped a few vandals, deleted nonsense pages, and experienced the wondrous admin rollback? Does it not bring a smile to your face when you are able to block that rude vandal instead of listing him at AIV, and hoping that an admin is around keeping an eye on it? Isn't it? :D Knowledge Of Self  |  talk  00:27, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

OhanaUnited's RfA
 Thanks for voting at my RfA. Unfortunately, the result stands at 51 support, 21 oppose and 7 neutral which means that I did not succeed.

Having fun yet?
So, having fun yet? I've had to semi-protect my user page and have received one hilariously aggrieved piece of hate mail that accuses me of being a "fat Canadian fag Nazi". Gee, and I thought I was losing weight... Oh well. Also had a wonderful piece of e-mail from an angry mother who wanted to know why I had deleted her 12-year-old daughter's (nearly-illiterate) page that she had worked so hard on. Turns out the page was about a protologistic term describing slash-style gay sex between the two lead singers of My Chemical Romance. I asked her if she was aware of the topic her daughter was working on -- no reply as yet. (Not holding my breath, either.) And today, I worked on new page patrol for three solid hours -- when I started, the number of tagged pages was 111 -- when I finished, it was 112. --> Sisyphus. So, when does the rouge cabal pay us large sums and offer unlimited power to enlist? Accounting4Taste 04:53, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I actually noticed that you semi-protected your userpage. Was it really getting hit that much? I'm really surprised, I haven't been getting any angry lashouts...of course, that could be because I've been mostly involved with blocking people since getting the tools. Not sure they can do much after that. :P Sorry about that angry e-mail, that sounds like a hassle, but I don't think the mother knew what she was defending. And yeah, that's freaking twisted. I haven't done a ton of CSD work yet, but I plan to on the soonish side. Other than angry vandals and parents, how are the tools treating you? GlassCobra 06:24, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Other than aggrieved children of all ages, for whom my patience is starting to wear thin (see my talk page for a new addition), I'm actually enjoying the tools. It is quite nice to do new page patrol now -- I can see a nonsensical page, tag it, notify the creator and then delete it, all with a few clicks.  If you are looking for something to do, please consider helping out with speedy deletion.  It's easy, it's frequently amusing (that is, if you find the notion amusing that someone would think that "Karen is a poo hed" is a valid Wikipedia article) and most of all, you are desperately needed.  I don't know if new page vandalism has gone up since the 1st of November, since I don't have any other experience, but I feel like that little Dutch boy with his finger in the dyke... the rising tide of crap is threatening to overwhelm us all.  Apparently there are thousands of "poo hed"s out there and they all want their own page. Accounting4Taste 16:05, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
 * No problem! I drop in every now and again, but I'll make more of a concerted effort from now on. :) GlassCobra 02:49, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

Hi
What happened to good faith on this site? Now i am being accused to a personal attack on you. All I urge is that in future perhaps you should be a little less trigger happy with the old block button, and try to point people in the right direction by advising them of WP regulations etc. If you people can't take a little constructive criticism now and then it's a bad day. --79.72.6.65 02:07, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Huh, I wonder whether I should have said that, but, seriously, that was a personal attack, and is not allowed on Wikipedia. And just by using your IP address right now is considered sockpuppetry. I ID'd you as a sockpuppet because you mentioned here that you were blocked on your user account. That's why I didn't assume good faith on you. If I offended you or anything, I apologize. - Go  od  sh oped 02:14, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

marvin harrison
I would like to request protection for Marvin Harrison. User 71.57.32.24 has commited acts of vandalism after warning. RC-0722 18:04, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Hey man, thanks for alerting me about this article. Having only one person vandalizing the article doesn't usually merit protection of the article itself; instead, we'd just ban the person. That way, everyone else that wants to contribute positively still can. :) I've given the vandal a final warning; if he vandalizes somewhere again and I don't see it and block him, come and tell me, okay? Also, when you warn vandals, make sure you use the proper blocking templates. Keep up the great work! GlassCobra 18:16, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

Could you take a look at Paknet's contribs?
He has basically inserted a short essay regarding how much he despises Butto, and inserted it in her article. Is this block-able, per preventative measures against POV-pushing/vandalism? K. Scott Bailey 18:45, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Yeah, it is. I saw that you gave him a final warning; if he messes around after that, let me or another admin know and he'll get blocked. Keep up the good work, my friend. :) GlassCobra 18:47, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks, GC. I appreciate your help on this, and I'll let you know if he continues to rv at the Butto article. Also, thanks for reverting his edits to my userpage. I knew when I added some controversial pages to my watchlist that things like this might happen, but I appreciate having more eyes on my userpage. Regards, K. Scott Bailey 18:53, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

Is he now block-able? Or, since you reverted his last POV edits, does that DQ you from placing the block? To openly defy multiple warnings, plus a conversation with an admin... sheesh! K. Scott Bailey 20:26, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

 * Benazir Bhutto has never had democratically held elections within her Party.
 * Instead of going to court she has negotiated with the current administration to drop charges of stealing 1.5 to 2.00 Billion US Dollars against her.
 * She is the only politican is not under arrest and her main opponenent Nawaz Sharif is not allowed to enter the country.
 * There is a capable young secular leadership within her party who will emerge if free and fair elections are held.
 * There are allegations within Pakistan that her husband had a hand in her brother's murder because he was challenging her leadership within her Party formed by her father. Her niece Fatima Bhutto has said this numeruous times in her articles.
 * During her reign thousands on immigrants of Indian origin were killed in extra judical killings.

DYK userbox question

Hey man, this guy just posted some article that supposedly came from the New York Times on his talk page to corroborate his rant from earlier.

GlassCobra 22:42, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Even if there are useable pieces in the NYT, his edits were disruptive, and stridently POV. You were definitely proper in your block, though indef may have been a bit harsh. That's just my opinion, though. Others who are actually admins might be able to better advise you on the issue of the block length. K. Scott Bailey 23:13, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

Adoption
Hello NovaDog! I noticed that you're interested in having a user adopt you. I'm an administrator who has been here for over 6 months, and I have over 5,000 edits. Depending on what areas you're looking for assistance with, I think I could help you out. Please feel free to drop me a line on my talk page if you're interested. Thanks! GlassCobra 02:30, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Hey, GlassCobra. I would be interested in being adopted by you :) Thanks, again, for your interest!

 * Sure thing! If you want to formally accept it, go ahead and add to your page where you used to have the Adoptme template. Then we can go from there! GlassCobra 02:57, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

Hello there! I saw your shiny new userbox. :) Looks good! So, where would you like to start? Do you have any questions that you'd like to ask me? GlassCobra 21:41, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
 * :) Well, I was wondering how I should get started at Wikipedia. If you've looked over my contributions, and I'm sure you have, you can see that I've mostly been reverting vandalism with Twinkle... but that's about all I can think of at the moment :p So do you have any advice as to how I should get started, and what else I can do? Thanks, by the way :D (Also, do you want me to reply on your talk page, instead of on here? I know different Wikipedians have different preferences.) &mdash; Nova  Dog  &mdash; ( contribs ) 22:06, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Absolutely correct, and to be honest, reverting vandalism is and always will be a constant task for everyone. There's no getting around it. I prefer old-school reversion (though the rollback function that admins get speeds things up), but Twinkle will really help you. Fighting vandalism is always great; do you know about reporting vandals to Administrator intervention against vandalism (shortcut: WP:AIV) so they get blocked? When you revert a vandal, go over to their talk page and leave them a warning. If they keep vandalizing, leave them higher warnings. If they go past a Level 4 warning, which is the final one, go ahead and report them. You can report inappropriate usernames to Usernames for administrator attention (shortcut: WP:UAA). These don't need to have any contributions to be reported, though.


 * These are more of the behind-the-scenes aspects of Wikipedia, and there are lots of people that contribute a lot in these areas. However, Wikipedia is also always in need of people to contribute to the actual articles; lots of editors are content to tag an article for cleanup or referencing, and not do anything themselves. If you're interested in helping out here, you should check out my What You Can Do page; this lists a lot of ways that you can help out on articles. WikiProjects are a great way to collaborate with other editors to improve content; I see that you've already joined one of those, which is great.


 * Hopefully this will give you some ideas as to where you want to help out most. As for replying to me, it doesn't really matter. If you have a question, posting on my talk page is the best way to reach me; that way, the orange bar pops up, and I'll see it more quickly. I'll respond here so that you get the orange bar too. After that, you can respond back wherever you like. Good luck! GlassCobra 22:38, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

Could you take a look at my conduct at the talk page of Abraham Lincoln?
I am reposting this from the note I left at Tim Vickers talk page, as I just noticed he won't be around until Wednesday.

I have a request for you. I have been accused of several egregious policy violations by User:Gwen_Gale. I believe she is out of line in doing so, but I am requesting that in your capacity as an admin, you take a look at my actions (and hers as well) to insure that I'm not out of line in my behavior towards her. Thanks in advance for any time you spend on this matter. Regards, K. Scott Bailey 05:23, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

 * Hey there, I responded to the recent concerns on this user's talkpage. Like I said there, I do apologize if it seemed a bit hasty, and the block can reduced to a definite limit, but I stand by my judgment that the user was doing more harm than good. GlassCobra 01:33, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

I, too, noticed you blocked User:EpicFlame, claiming they "do not seem to have any constructive edits at all to this project." The quickest glance indicates this user has been editing since early January of 2007, nearly a year with no blocks of any duration. Your block reason mentions "harassment," which seems to me to imply persistent, coordinated attacks, targeting someone specific, in spite of relevant warnings or requests... of which I see none from you. I'm not endorsing their behavior, but I have to ask, is it your general practice to toss aside, indefinitely block, and insult longtime editors at the drop of a hat, with no apparent warning? – Luna Santin  (talk) 00:20, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Hey there, I responded to the recent concerns on this user's talkpage. I did quite pointedly ask the user not to recreate his douchebox userbox, but he went and did so anyway. Like I said on EF's talk page, I do apologize if it seemed a bit hasty, and the block can reduced to a definite limit, but I stand by my judgment that the user was doing more harm than good. GlassCobra 01:35, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Appreciate the reply, and the willingness to compromise. User's behavior after the block has been pretty awful, though... not sure where this anon edit came from, but I know I've seen that set of characters used before, and it doesn't seem the sort of thing somebody casually stumbles by. References to another admin and other trollish memes in this later diff from Epic pretty much seal the deal for me. Possibly this was a gladhand account, or it was compromised? Whatever's going on, looks like I missed something big, and your block was more spot on than it first appeared. I wonder if this is a little taste of how defense attorneys feel, when their client turns out to be pretty unambiguously guilty? In any case, sorry to bother you. – Luna Santin  (talk) 20:43, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

Thank you
Hey man, have you ever been considered being an admin?

 * Whilst I am very humbled by your comments, you may wish to note that i have an semi-long block history, which would attract many opposes. Long story short: i wont be going for admin until i have 20-30,000 contribs. It probably wouldnt pass until this time next year, at the earliest. Thank you anyway.

Hey man, thanks for declining that guy's unblock, but it might have been a little hasty on my part. He created some pretty nasty userboxes, including re-creating one after it was deleted at MFD, but other than that, he seemed to be a good-faith editor for the most part. I think some other admins are looking into it, but I wanted to tell you that I appreciate you backing me up. GlassCobra 02:22, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
 * To be honest, I didn't even look into the circumstances surrounding it; I just happened to be working WP:RFU at the time and always deny incoherent or or attacking requests. east. 718 at 02:26, 11/13/2007
 * Fair enough. His unblock request was rather uncivil. Well, thanks all the same. GlassCobra 02:28, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, looks like your judgement was excellent: east. 718 at 03:28, 11/13/2007
 * Yeah, he's not handling the situation well. It also looks like he's made a sock, User:PartyVan. GlassCobra 03:35, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
 * I'm tempted to block that one on sight; "party van" is a reference to child porn. east. 718 at 03:36, 11/13/2007
 * Is it really? I had no idea; well, it looks like the sock's been banned. Even EpicFlame's adopter, User:Mschel, acknowledges that his behavior has been pretty disappointing. GlassCobra 03:40, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

My (Remember the dot)'s RfA
I never thanked you for participating in my RfA a couple of weeks ago. Thank you for your support, though unfortunately the request was closed as "no consensus". I plan to run again at a later time, and I hope you will support me again then.

Thanks again! —Remember the dot (talk) 06:38, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

I must confess I'm a little disappointed to see the closed-mindedness that some people are displaying on the MFD. I'm sorry if you find this offensive, it was all in fun. I'm totally cool with you adding in guys to make it more gender-neutral; I was merely doing it from my point of view. Of course, with a gun to my head, if I had to pick one guy, it would probably be one of the ones you've added, you know? Haha. GlassCobra 18:37, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
 * I don't find it offensive at all. I never said that. I simply saw that some people did, and I wanted to make it neutral. I commented "delete" for unrelated reasons. However, if it is going to stay, it should have men, as well, haha.  нмŵוτн τ  20:07, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
 * No, I completely agree! If you look, I did put in a couple of the really exceptional ones even when I first started it. :) GlassCobra 23:42, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Haha, yeah, I actually did notice that, but not until after I added some boys of my own. =)  нмŵוτн τ  23:44, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

controversy
Hello. First of all, you defended a person that I was fighting with. Thats ok...but you defended the wrong person. I went to the Ed, Edd n Eddy site and found that there was an ending date. So I fixed it. Then this guy vandalizes my page, critisizing me about how Ed, Edd n Eddy ended it's run. So I leave a message for him stating that Ed, Edd n Eddy did NOT end its run. I also proved it to him by stating that I he read more in the summary, that a.k.a Cartoon was making a nother season, AND I went to the site and it said that there WAS going to be a nother season. Then he insults me ON MY OWN PAGE!! So I return the favor, and he said that he would "report me". Then you showed up and took his side. Does that seem fair?Rhode Island Hero 21:48, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

calmed down
Ok, ok, ok. Please put a warning on Eliach's page. He vandalized my page with his cruel words. Im the victim. I was just trying to help Wikipedia. Or, should I just stop? I tried to help —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rhode Island Hero (talk • contribs) 21:58, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
