Thank you for participating in my RfA
I just wanted to take a moment to say "thank you" for taking the time and effort to participate in my recent RfA. As you may know, the discussion closed 66/0/1 and I'm now a holder of the mop.

Hi
Hi Ironholds, in order not to misunderstand each other, I just want to tell you that I completely agree on the terms related to the lists nominated for deletion, the only reason for creating the lists is because I thought that this was an important issue for the Lebanese military history task force. If these articles are unnecessary then I should respect that. Thank you Alain08 (talk) 12:48, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for your careful consideration at my successful RfA. Please let me know on my talk page if you have any suggestions for me. - Dan Dank55 (send/receive) 17:49, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

 * Someone created a lot of bio stubs on female Fellows, unfortunately some other editors didn't accept that being peer-elected to one of the foremost scientific societies in the world is an assertion of notability. DuncanHill (talk) 23:34, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Yeah - I saw your comment on the talk page there, then found your article on Eric James Denton, an FRS, CBE, Knight and Gold Medallist. DuncanHill (talk) 23:39, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

Charles River Boathouse list
I'm not sure where the guy who originally made the list is (but I noticed your post on his talk page), but I've been adding a few things to it (and I'm kind of new here, and most of what I've done so far has been adding "this article is a stub" and stuff of that sort) and I wouldn't mind some help, if possible/you want. :D Flffy&#39;d (talk) 23:46, 7 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I guess both :$ :) And thanks. Flffy&#39;d (talk) 00:16, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Okay thanks for being so friendly. I'm not sure about some of the citing.  For example if I use a certain source for most or all of the boxes in a certain row, should I cite each fact, or just once next to box one, or next to box one and any fact 'that is likely to be challenged'.  Sorry about my poor explaining skills basically like what one of [|these edits] is cited better.  Meh, I guess that really doesn't matter too much, though.  Also, I was wondering how should I order the list, in your opinion? (like by date built or alphabetical or).  Thanks for your patience. Flffy&#39;d (talk) 00:13, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Your recent move
The lengthy disambiguation existed for a reason: two people named Lord John Hay became flag officers. See Lord John Hay. Choess (talk) 02:37, 11 December 2008 (UTC)


 * No problem. Just thought I'd let you know before someone else more irritable discovered it. :) I'm working on Lord-Lieutenants for a while now, but The End is actually Nigh as far as that project goes (well, post 1585 anyway), then I should be able to get back to sheriffs. Choess (talk) 02:53, 11 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Ah, I saw that in your sandbox. This should explain two of the early resignations: Fitzalan-Howard (who should probably be styled Earl of Arundel and Surrey) and subsequently John O'Connell. Choess (talk) 03:59, 11 December 2008 (UTC)


 * The office of CR of County Galway probably exists, we just don't have a handy compilation of records of the holders. Sir John Sainty's list of custodes only covers England and Wales, less Durham and Lancashire. Choess (talk) 18:49, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

Sir Stuart Samuel MP
I see you created a page about the Liberal MP Stuart Samuel in August 2008. I note that another editor called Historicist created a similar page under the name Stuart Samuel on 3 December 2008. Do you want to merge the pages? I have left a similar message for Historicist. Graham Lippiatt (talk) 23:33, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
 * It's an uncontroversial merge; I've gone ahead and merged them at Stuart Samuel, since to my knowledge there's no need to disambiguate the baronet from anyone else named "Stuart Samuel". Choess (talk) 14:52, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

Featured lists
(To reply to your recent message...) While I appreciate your thanks, I don't feel like I really made the list featured: you did all the grunt work of formatting, referencing, and so forth. I just ran around and slapped categories and succession boxes on a lot of stubs. (I think I have the category/succession work done for your Knights of St Patrick; now I'm starting to work in genealogical information for them.) Apropos of which, this reference may be of interest to you, as it points out an anomaly in the statues of the Order of St Patrick: though the Grand Master (the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland ex officio) presides over meetings of the order in the absence of the Sovereign, he need not be a member of the order. In fact, none of the Lord Lieutenants since the founding of the order seems to have been made a member of the Order. (The Marquess Wellesley served his terms as Lord Lieutenant before 1837.)

Also, I ran into a little problem when writing the script to reverse the order; I assigned one variable to another, but forgot that it actually made the new variable reference the old one rather than copy it.

 * Congrats! This is a great article! Ecoleetage (talk) 20:25, 18 December 2008 (UTC)

Thanks!
I'm currently writing some comments at the review of Royal Medal, but wanted to thank you personally for the work you have done so far on the article. I might be criticising rather strongly (though hopefully constructively), but wanted to say that I was very pleased to see someone take the article the next (big!) step forward. Carcharoth (talk) 23:01, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Replies now at the FLC page. Feel free to suggest moving parts of that discussion to the article/list talk page. Also, I hope to find time to do some of the work on this soon (backlinks and expanding the one-liner articles and adding links in the rationales column and, possibly, tracking down some other sources). If you are planning to do some of this, let me know and we can co-ordinate. Once it is clearer what is future/talk page stuff and what is actionable (sorry for not making that clearer) then I'll add my support (not that it needs it, as it looks like it has a lot of support already, but I'd like to get the chance to add a definite support, though seeing as I've done work on the article I'm not entirely sure I should - if I do, I'll make clear that I'm "involved" in the article). Carcharoth (talk) 09:42, 20 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Made clear I'm in the support column. Could you see what you think about the "270" figure as opposed to my "405" figure? See the talk page for the article, and ignore the "working list" at the end... :-) Carcharoth (talk) 11:39, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for doing the backlinks! "sodding long time" :-) I was wondering what your thoughts on redirects were? Did you see the point I made about Keith Usherwood Ingold? It is amazing what you can find on the other ends of redlinked redirects! Of course, those other awards he won need checking, but it is a way to find stuff that isn't mentioned in the less comprehensive biographies and obituaries. See also what I said here (which I hope has a reply now). Carcharoth (talk) 12:05, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

Patrolling
Just got your messages. I have no idea how to mark an article as patrolled, or what this means. Please advise. -- Scjessey (talk) 17:24, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Sorry, but I cannot find the link you describe. First of all, I do not monitor new page creation specifically, but rather I sometimes follow activities on Special:RecentChanges - mostly looking for vandalism when I'm bored. Secondly, I do not have any special editing privileges - I'm just a regular Wikipedia editor. -- Scjessey (talk) 17:33, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I am using Twinkle (added it to monobook.js a few months ago), but I see no patrolling option on the screen or in the code. According to this I should be seeing the link on diffs, but that does not appear to be the case. The same page suggests that "[p]atrolled edits are restricted to administrators in most Mediawiki projects." -- Scjessey (talk) 17:48, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I can't see it going through special:newpages either. And no need to apologize - I'd be happy to follow your advice if I were able. Very strange. -- Scjessey (talk) 17:57, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I've added  et al to the Twinkle settings to see if that works. I found out about that here, and it seems strange that my installation (which was just a default installation) didn't already have it. -- Scjessey (talk) 18:03, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

Mistress of the Robes
That's a tricky one. Part of the problem is that Queens Consort, Queens Regnant, and Princesses of Wales could all have a Mistress of the Robes, so I'm not sure quite what you'd put in the column heading. If you look at, there's a separate list for all the important officials in the households of the Queens Consort, Princes and Princesses of Wales, etc. So maybe we could reserve Mistress of the Robes for the Mistresses to Queens Regnant (Victoria & Elizabeth II) and spin the rest off into household pages, but that would leave the original page pretty sparse.

Closing RfA's
Hey there Iron, A few comments about closing RfA's. First, it is generally wise never to close an RfA where you have !voted. Part of the reason why I don't !vote in obvious snowballs is because I want to be available to close it as a NOTNOW. Second, generally I would wait until there are several people who have chimed in, but in this case, with only 111 edits, an immediate closure is ok. I like there to be a few opposes so the candidate feels like they received a shot and that it isn't just one person. But with only 111 edits, immediate closure is ok. Third, and this is why I really came by, you did a better job on closing an RfA than I did my first time. My first closure resulted in somebody having to clean up a mess. That being said, there are three things you forgot:

1 and 2: For unsuccessful nominations, add the summary to List of failed RfAs (Chronological) and Unsuccessful adminship candidacies or Unsuccessful bureaucratship candidacies.

3: This is THE most important step.

Again, you did a better job than I did my first 3 or 4 times, so my hats off to you. Just remember to check everything at CRAT when you close an RfA.--- Balloonman  PoppaBalloon 16:15, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

RfA Thanks
Hi Iron, just wanted to say thanks for giving me tough time at my RfA. No complaints, it was all fair!:-) After I had withdrawn, I noticed you had left a question and because it felt a bit rhetorical I wanted to get back to you. And I'd also appreciate your comments if any. You don't think No Personal Attacks, allowing editors to easily review your work, the ability to make firm decisions and to avoid conflicts of interest are things you'd consider to be important?

No Personal Attacks, it is important of course. Nobody should ever comment on contributors but on content only. That would be so in the perfect world. In the real world personal attacks happen in wikipedia all the time. I've never made a big deal out of it in case it was directed against me. In case it has been persistent, I've asked kindly to check on WP:NPA by saying something like, please comment on my contributions not on me.

I'm also human, and in case I see a known nationalist POV editor boldly removing sourced and referenced facts from an article,(what in this case was a decision of the European Parliament) facts that she/he "doesn't like", and I had similar problems with the guy for ages, it can happen that all that good faith might just go thin. And the territory between nationalistically motivated edits and the editor get blurred and you just spell it out. Not that I'm proud of it that I've directly accused someone of being a nationalist. So hope that it is an answer to your question.

Allowing editors to easily review your work, the ability to make firm decisions would be important of course once you put it that way.

Avoid conflicts of interest, sure, if someone is up to advertising or promoting something for their personal advantage, an encyclopedia is not a place for that.--Termer (talk) 08:01, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

Notice
Deleting the article would very improper on your part. Doing so would obviously be an act againist freedom of speech. The articles quotes references, they are in bold type. Deleting would only reveal your bias and fears. There are articles on criticism of many books, but when you do about the talmud, I Jew am accused of being anti-Semite, disgusting. It's not in an essay form, it lists many, many references including profession books, websites, and quotations from books, and Jewish scholars. It is in point form to help make adjustment. I now have a copy of the article so don't think about about trying to delete it I and others will just put back on!

Deletion of Chicago Film Producers Alliance Page
Hi, TexasAndriod upset the 85 members of the Chicago Film Producers Alliance by deleting the page that I posted. The reason he gave was "A7" - something about not having a legitimate reason for our article. CFPA has 85 producers who have completed award winning films. One of our members is Kartemquin Films (Hoops Dreams) and are currently up for an Oscar. How is an alliance of 85 producers, a group that is winning awards and is open to the public, not worth noting in Wikipedia? If this is not worthy, on what grounds do you include Warners Bros and other film company and organizations? What do I need to do to get our organization accepted? .--ATurnerIII (talk) —Preceding undated comment was added at 18:33, 29 December 2008 (UTC).

User:Standforder report on AIV
I've declined this request for now, as the editor has not edited for over four hours, and AIV is really not the right place for a discussion of this sort (the behaviour is less out-and-out vandalism and more a behavioural issue). Might I suggest AN or AN/I as a better place to bring this up? I share your concerns about this user, but I don't think that they're quite beyond hope yet. Lankiveil (speak to me) 12:25, 30 December 2008 (UTC).
 * Yeah, I know AN/I can be a bit heavy (not to mention just a little too prone to drama at times). With that said though, I think the situation is salvageable; the edits appear to be made in good faith, he/she just seems more than a little clueless at times.  I'll keep an eye on the account though just to make sure that it doesn't step over the line.  Lankiveil (speak to me) 12:49, 30 December 2008 (UTC).

Hi, I declined the speedy tag you placed on this article. It does have some assertion of notability (won a businessman of the year award). Feel free to take to AFD, though. Karanacs (talk) 15:15, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

Re:
ACC (don't ask me why it's not ACI) currently has an IRC channel with a bot, where most of us have the 'new account created' text given out by the bot stalked, so most requests get dealt within a minute or so - you just have to be there. #wikipedia-en-accounts is the one. As for the notice, you just have to create neuro ''' (talk)  11:17, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

Any objection to a snowball-speedy-close of Wikipedia:Miscellany_for_deletion/User:DJ_WikiBob/Sandbox_2? Besides the nom, you are the only person recommending deletion. davidwr/ (talk)/(contribs)/(e-mail)  17:38, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

Re:Royal Society awards FT
Sounds good, but such a list should encompass all the awards, medals, and lectures listed in that section, meaning that you would have to bring them up to FL (or if they have less than 10 items, have them thoroughly peer reviewed). Title of the list would be List of Royal Society honours or similar. — sephiroth bcr  <sup style="font-family:Verdana;">( converse ) 20:30, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

Happy New Year!

Kind regards,
