recall
I am contacting you today as one of the users listed at User:Secret/recall. In case you were not aware, Secret has once again resigned his admin status and is once again about to ask for it back. I am concerned that this behavior constitutes the sort of erratic behavior that this recall mechanism was designed to deal with and am asking all other users listed there to add their opinion at the talk page of the recall subpage.

MV arbitration case
Upon checking just now, I find the RfC was also advertised here, which is the usual place for discussions of site-wide interest. It was removed from the template about three weeks later. This should probably be mentioned as well; would you be amenable to adding it? Best, Andreas JN 466 03:15, 21 July 2014 (UTC)

Adoption. (Sort of)
Since I'm a Semi experienced editor I was wondering if I could take just your Deletion and both of the vandalism courses you have. I use twinkle.

The Courses: User:John F. Lewis/Adopt/Deletion User:John F. Lewis/Adopt/Vandalism 1.1 User:John F. Lewis/Adopt/Vandalism 1.2

Also quick question: when do you use only warning?

Thanks for taking care of the issues through  OTRS. I have had this article on my  watchlist  for years. Not only  do I  coordinate WP:WPSCH but  by  pure coincidence the place is located in  my  home town. There is always a lot of local  conjecture surrounding  the place but  the Wikipedia article must be kept neutral. Let me know on my  talk  page if at  any time you  would like me to  semi protect the page. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 15:21, 18 September 2014 (UTC)

The semi protection  hasn't  worked  and a confirmed editor  replaced the removed content. I have reverted and placed the article under full  protection  but  you  may  need to  explain  at  some later stage about  the OTRS ticket, without  of course disclosing  any  confidential  information.
