Wow.
I was wondering how you found the article I made so fast... —Preceding unsigned comment added by Zazaban (talk • contribs)

Country infobox
Thanks very much for the quite reasonable response at template talk:Infobox Country. My comment about your "unilateral revert" was meant only to point out that any revert should be discussed, and I'm sorry if this comment increased the heat around these changes. -- Rick Block (talk) 23:48, 9 October 2006 (UTC)


 * I've spent some time looking at your contribution history. Would you be interested in being an admin?  I don't exactly know you, but I'd be happy to nominate you.  Just let me know. -- Rick Block (talk) 01:25, 10 October 2006 (UTC)


 * OK. Fill in the blanks at Requests for adminship/Physicq210, including a formal acceptance, and transclude it into WP:RFA.  If you'd rather wait a bit, that's fine too.  Your choice. -- Rick Block (talk) 02:29, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

Your RfA
I've asked a question on your RfA - Perhaps you'd like to respond? --Mcginnly | Natter 20:42, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

Userboxes
I was wondering, how do you get those Userboxes? Like the ones that say you haven't left North American Hemisphere, your a guy, right handed, visited 3 countries etc...

Unblocked?
Did you get unblocked already? --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs)  01:53, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

Lyrics in Song Pages
In a page such as Papercut by Linkin Park is it a wise idea to add lyrics? I've noticed some other song pages have them. btg2290 04:16, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
 * No, it's a copyright violation and they generally should be removed. (sorry to butt in). Sarah Ewart (Talk) 04:17, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

Med Cabal
I sent you an email.

Do you think the Med Cabal is a good idea? --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs)  04:48, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I noticed that you posed on the U.S. Roads fallout case... is that a good idea? --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs)  05:05, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Well not your recusal... in general do you think it's a good idea? Would you be willing to participate (as a party not a mediator)? --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs)  05:22, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

Congratulations
You're now an admin, so have fun using the new tools to help make the project better. Do the best you can to take into account the spirit of the comments in your RfA to the extent that they can help you be a better editor and a greater asset to the project. Let the rest go. As you get the hang of the new tools use them to help clear out the backlogs, but still use them conservatively, especially the punitive ones like blocking, and especially at first. Polite warnings and de-escalating the situation can go a long way instead of antagonizing. Re-read the policies as necessary before acting. Other than that have fun, and again, congrats. - Taxman Talk 03:47, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Congratulations. Feel free to consult me on any difficult admin decision you face - I am always around. - CrazyRussian talk/email 04:05, 17 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Congrats! --myselfalso 04:08, 17 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Congrats! ... and you're quite welcome. If you ever need any advice or guidance please let me know.  I've been around a good long time, so have some degree of experience.  As an admin, I'd recommend you try first to do no harm.  I don't know that anyone would recognize what an achievement this is (like on a college application), but it might make for an interesting essay.  I'm sure I'll see you around here and there.  -- Rick Block (talk) 04:15, 17 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Without wanting to sound like a me-tooer, congrats from me too. Rarely found it so easy to decide which way to "vote" in an Rfa. Good luck. --Dweller 07:12, 17 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Congratulations and welcome to the club, Physicq! :) Best of luck with your adminship! Cheers, Sarah Ewart (Talk) 07:26, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

Congratulations to you and keep up the good work! &mdash;MJCdetroit 12:18, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

Congrats from me too. And if you ever need an opinion from an ex-admin (for some reason or other), I'm available. :P – Chacor 14:36, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

Smile


has smiled at you! Smiles promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better. Spread the WikiLove by smiling to someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Smile to others by adding {{subst:smile}}, {{subst:smile2}} or {{subst:smile3}} to their talk page with a friendly message. Happy editing!

Reverting
I have a question about reverting. Is there some quick tag or something that you can type in to make it say "__ reverted ___ from ____ to the version by ___" or whatnot, instead of merely typing "rv"? Thanks!

Hey Physicq, thanks a lot for supporting me in my recent RfA. It succeeded, and I am very grateful to all of you. If you ever need help with anything, please don't hesitate to ask. Also, feel free point out any mistakes I make! Thanks again, &mdash; Khoikhoi 04:17, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

User:Odyssey19
This user has been leaving a mess of the Nevada State Route articles, removing the prose and doing other such stuff. Could you be alert for that and edit when necessary? The problem is that he/she has made hundreds of contributions that all have to be reviewed and I don't have the time to do that... uggh. --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 21:54, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

Clear up the confusion
Hi Physicq210, I think I didn't express myself clearly enough on the Administrator intervention against vandalism page:


 * User:Neoconned - SourceWatch - this blocked impersonator's userpage is a repeat target for sockpuppets trying to recreate it, eg. So would it be possible to protect it, please? I can't see any reason for legitimate contributors to edit it now.--Neoconned 03:31, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Did you just call me a sockpuppet? I put the template on it because the account was indefblocked. --210 physicq  ( c ) 03:40, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
 * But I have protected it now. --210 physicq  ( c ) 03:42, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Just to be clear, I emphatically wasn't calling you a sockpuppet. I was referring to those individuals who have been replacing the indefblocked template on that page with a spoof impersonator userpage. Which you have fixed by restoring the indefblocked template and protecting the page. Thanks! --Neoconned 13:42, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Lawrence Kelemen undeleted
You deleted it based on A7, but it squarely asserted that he wrote several books, two of which were named. That takes him out of A7, of course. He is, in fact, a notable rabbi. I have improved the article. Cheers. - crz crztalk 13:34, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your input
Thank you for taking part in my RfA. The RfA was not successful, mostly because I did a pretty bad job of presenting myself. I'll run again sometime in the next few months, in the hopes that some will reconsider.

In the meantime, one of the projects I'm working on is A Wikimedia Administrator's Handbook. This is a wikibook how-to guide intended to help new administrators learn the ropes, as well as to simply "demystify" what adminship entails. If you are an administrator, please help out with writing it, particularly on the technical aspects of the tools. Both administrators and non-administrators are welcome to help link in and sort all of the various policies regarding the use of these tools on wikipedia in particular (as well as other projects: for example, I have almost no experience with how things work on wiktionary or wikinews). Users who are neither familiar with policy or the sysop tools could be of great help by asking questions about anything that's unclear. The goal is to get everything together in one place, with a narrative form designed to anticipate the reader's next question.

A second project, related but not entailed, is a book on wikimedia in general, with a history of how various policies evolved over time, interesting trivia (e.g., what the heck was "wikimoney" about?), and a history of how the wikimedia foundation itself came about and the larger issues that occurred during its history (such as the infamous "Spanish Fork").

Again, thanks for your input on the RfA, and thanks in advance for any help you might be able to provide for the handbook. -- SB_Johnny |talk|books 13:52, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

Article Deletion?
On Nov 10, around 1600, I was creating an article which described a set of comedy performances on a DVD, Bob and Tom Radio: The Comedy Tour. Later in the evening, after I found the DVD container, I was ready to create the remainder of the article, but I could not find the article and I had received no messages with regard to its demise.

Another user helped me find this:

19:16, 10 November 2006 Physicq210 (Talk | contribs) deleted "Bob and Tom Radio: The Comedy Tour" (CSD A1)

I understand the CSD, but I was under the impression that this normally had some warning period or at least some evidence so that I could have found what happened.

Of course, I can re-create the article, but I just wanted to understand so that I might make corrective action for the future.

Please copy me on my Talk page with any response.

Thanks!

Lmcelhiney 00:40, 14 November 2006 (UTC) I really appreciate your returning the article for my revisions. I have a better, though not yet complete (is ANY ever complete?) article in place (with citations).

Thanks again!

Mediation Cabal/Cases/2006-11-18 Singapore Changi Airport
Hi there. A Mediation cabal case has been opened regarding the dispute at Changi Airport. The mediators, User:Hunterd and I, would like to hear everyone's stand on the dispute. Any input is very welcome at Mediation Cabal/Cases/2006-11-18 Singapore Changi Airport, could you please indicate your stand regarding the dispute, and why you think the names should stay/go? Thanks, – Chacor 02:27, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

San Francisco length
Even completely disregarding kb of the page, I find it hard to regard its currentl length as necessity when the NYC article, which is for an older city that is the 12th largest in the world, is so much shorter and more readable. I don't think there's any debating that the lengthy history section does not belong on the SF page in anything resembling its entirety. Hence, I place tag.--Loodog 04:43, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Health Wiki Research
A colleague and I are conducting a study on health wikis. We are looking at how wikis co-construct health information and create communities. We noticed that you are a frequent contributor to Wikipedia on health topics.

Please consider taking our survey here.

This research will help wikipedia and other wikis understand how health information is co-created and used.

We are from James Madison University in Harrisonburg, Virginia. The project was approved by our university research committee and members of the Wikipedia Foundation.
