Thanks for the welcome
I assumed it was an automated post till I actually looked in on you. Nice of you to drop by and welcome me to the neighborhood. I have since paid it forward in a welcome to a newer user. Glenn6502 02:33, 22 Oct 2004 (UTC)

RFC pages on VfD
Should RFC pages be placed on VfD to be deleted? I'm considering removing Requests for comment/Slrubenstein, Requests for comment/Jwrosenzweig and Requests for comment/John Kenney from WP:VFD. Each of them was listed by CheeseDreams. Your comments on whether I should do this would be appreciated. - Ta bu shi da yu 03:49, 10 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Article Licensing
Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 1000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:
 * Multi-Licensing FAQ - Lots of questions answered
 * Multi-Licensing Guide
 * Free the Rambot Articles Project

To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the " " template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:


 * Option 1
 * I agree to multi-license all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:

OR
 * Option 2
 * I agree to multi-license all my contributions to any U.S. state, county, or city article as described below:

Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace " " with "  ". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)

How do you do this???
Hi Jrdioko, maybe you know an answer to this question. There is a madman (I really don't know how else to describe him -- or her? I doubt it, though) who has been attacking a number of pages on the Wikipedia for quite a few weeks now. He should definitely be expelled. I was wondering what the procedure was. His username is Antifinnugor and he has been attacking in particular the pages and the users he lists on his user page (and the respective talk pages). This person knows absolutely nothing about linguistics (something that is clearly evidenced by every statement he makes), yet he has injected an enormous amount of false controversy in fields in which there is no controversy at all among experts. Personally, I studied and taught historical linguistics (at a high academic level) for two decades, so I think I can be a good judge of this. However, this is not just my opinion, but the opinion of every other user involved. Pasquale 18:25, 21 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Request From A Beginner
Hi Jrdioko, I appreciate your dedication to Wikipedia. I noticed that you made the decision to remove an addition I had made in the entry for sandwiches. Obviously, my addition was not a substantial one, and I was merely tinkering with the entry seeing as how Wikipedia is still a bit of a novelty to me. However, what actually upset me was your subsequent action: removing another of my entries that I had posted for the University of San Francisco. Unless you attended USF, I doubt that you know little of its history or the topic which I chose to expand upon. In my opinion, your decision to delete my addition to USF Football was a knee-jerk reaction to my previous entry about sandwiches. I do not doubt that you are an excellent administrator (or sysop), but please do not be overzealous. In the future I feel that you personally should challenge yourself to make the Wikipedia experience a more welcoming one. 24.14.4.166 02:10, 27 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Please stop making these false accusations against me. I don't know what your problem is, or why you have targeted me, but it seems very pathetic, and you need to stop and get a life. If you continue making threats, I will have to report you and have you blocked from Wikipedia.

I just got this comment on my user talk page: User talk:Master Of Ninja. I don't understand what it actually means, and I'm not even sure what the blocking threat is for. Is this just a troll of some sort? I would be grateful for your assistance. - Master Of Ninja 08:17, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Replaced a redirection by writing an article
Hi Jrdioko,

I have written this page: Year 2038 problem. It used to be redirected to Unix time. However, the info related to the actual subject on that page was rather limited. So, I took the liberty to remove that redirection and write an article which (I hope) covers the subject. Is that permitted? I also linked back to the orginal article. Is that the way to go about it?

Thanks for your time.

User:Jrdioko  -  I see where you participated in the matter concerning Abraham Lincoln's sexuality that was discussed and voted upon on Talk:Abraham Lincoln. There has been a lengthy and exhausting discussion surrounding this exact same issue at Talk:Elvis Presley and the archived Talk pages as well. Because this has the potential to create a new standard for what is acceptable sources, I thought that you might want to be aware of it.

If the policy consensus you and others arrived at on the Abraham Lincoln issue is set aside in the Presley article it will result in new ones for countless others. I think your group discussion that arrived at a determination of what constituted a proper source should be defined by the Wikipedia community and set as firm policy which would go a long way in helping to substantially reduce the tiresome and repeated edit wars. Thank you for your interest. Please note I have left the same message for others who worked on this matter. Ted Wilkes 20:17, August 18, 2005 (UTC)

I don't understand why you deleted Lissette?
I'm new to Wikipedia so perhaps I misunderstand the process somewhat but is it correct that you deleted Lissette Álvarez simply because you don't like her?

" 04:30, 5 January 2005 Jrdioko deleted "Lissette Alvarez" (No me gusta Lissette Álvarez) "

Lissette was an integral part of the nueva ola music movement in Puerto Rico and was a bigger name in the 60's than both Chucho Avellanet and Lucesita Benitez whose articles remain. And since Lissette is mentioned repeatedly within Wikipedian articles she shouldn't have been removed. For example, within http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chucho_Avellanet there is:

"Helped by Alfred D. Herger, he was a member of a group of teen sensations that included Lissette Alvarez (to whom Avellanet got married), Lucecita Benitez..."

"...he was able to explore his ability both in the show hosting and acting fields when he hosted, alongside Lissette Alvarez, the popular El show de Chucho y Lissette."

"He also participated, with Lissette, in a famous Schaeffer Beer commercial, where he sang the jingle Cerveza Schaeffer es la mejor cuando se toma mas de una! (Schaeffer Beer is the best when you drink it more than once!!)."

"In 1994, he, Lucecita Benitez and Lissette Alvarez rejoined forces for a one-night only concert."

It makes no sense to have Chucho remain and not Lissette! Lissette was a bigger sensation than Chucho. It would be like having an article about Sonny and Cher and then deciding to delete Cher!AndiP 03:42, 25 September 2005 (UTC)

Kinopanorama overlap
Each of the three films are marked with a small indent at the bottom of each frame. The indents are used by the projectionists, who rack-up the frames, to match the overlaps. This is why I suggested that someone else have a look at the frames and arrive at the figures. So, if you personally are interestred, or if you know someone else who is, please email me direct.--Jslasher 22:32, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

Stubs
Hello ,

I noticed you marked an article as a stub using the   template. Did you know that there are thousands of stub types that you can use to clarify what type of stub the article is? Properly categorizing stubs is important to the Wikipedia community because it helps various WikiProjects to identify articles that need expansion.

You can view the full list of stub types at WP:STUBS.

If you have questions about stub sorting, don't hesitate to ask! There is a wealth of stub information on the stub sorting WikiProject, and hundreds of stub sorters. Thanks!

Notification of pending suspension of administrative permissions due to inactivity
Following a community discussion in June 2011, consensus was reached to provisionally suspend the administrative permissions of users who have been inactive for one year (i.e. administrators who have not made any edits or logged actions in over one year). As a result of this discussion, your administrative permissions will be removed pending your return if you do not return to activity within the next month. If you wish to have these permissions reinstated should this occur, please post to the Bureaucrats' noticeboard and the userright will be restored per the re-sysopping process (i.e., as long as the attending bureaucrats are reasonably satisfied that your account has not been compromised and that your inactivity did not have the effect of evading scrutiny of any actions which might have led to sanctions). This removal of access is procedural only, and not intended to reflect negatively upon you in any way. We wish you the best in future endeavors, and thank you for your past administrative efforts.

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Two-Factor Authentication now available for admins
Hello,

Please note that TOTP based two-factor authentication is now available for all administrators. In light of the recent compromised accounts, you are encouraged to add this additional layer of security to your account. It may be enabled on your preferences page in the "User profile" tab under the "Basic information" section. For basic instructions on how to enable two-factor authentication, please see the developing help page for additional information. Important: Be sure to record the two-factor authentication key and the single use keys. If you lose your two factor authentication and do not have the keys, it's possible that your account will not be recoverable. Furthermore, you are encouraged to utilize a unique password and two-factor authentication for the email account associated with your Wikimedia account. This measure will assist in safeguarding your account from malicious password resets. Comments, questions, and concerns may be directed to the thread on the administrators' noticeboard.

A new user right for New Page Patrollers
Hi.

A new user group, New Page Reviewer, has been created in a move to greatly improve the standard of new page patrolling. The user right can be granted by any admin at PERM. It is highly recommended that admins look beyond the simple numerical threshold and satisfy themselves that the candidates have the required skills of communication and an advanced knowledge of notability and deletion. Admins are automatically included in this user right.

It is anticipated that this user right will significantly reduce the work load of admins who patrol the performance of the patrollers. However,due to the complexity of the rollout, some rights may have been accorded that may later need to be withdrawn, so some help will still be needed to some extent when discovering wrongly applied deletion tags or inappropriate pages that escape the attention of less experienced reviewers, and above all, hasty and bitey tagging for maintenance. User warnings are available here but very often a friendly custom message works best.

If you have any questions about this user right, don't hesitate to join us at WT:NPR. (Sent to all admins) .MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:47, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

Invitation to return
Hello, Jrdioko!

I note that your user page is out of date and that it has been some years (at least ten) since you've done much editing. I'd like to invite you to return. Since you were active in RC patrolling while you were active here, you may be interested in using Huggle, which is a tool designed for that purpose. If interested, take a look. I've also placed some resources for people reengaging with the project at WikiProject Editor Retention/administrators, which you may find helpful. If there is anything you'd like to discuss, I'm available to help, and can be reached either on my talk page (preferred), or via email (for discussion not suitable for public disclosure).

Best wishes,
