My RfA Card
How does this look as a rough start?

Template Design
Could you tell me how to have a template desgin in my talk page ? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Connortt9 (talk • contribs) 19:21, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

I want a design, many editors have a design on their talk page , where can I get it ? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Connortt9 (talk • contribs) 19:28, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Well, looks like you have one. Sorry I couldn't help you. Btw, Robert, if you can help me to make my nomination and RfA better, you can. As of now, I have no intention of becoming an administrator; seems like all people are going to do is find something wrong and complain about it to me. | ' '  ( Contribs ) 06:01, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

RfA card update
I'm debating if I should have Jimbo Wales's quote in the beginning. | ' '  ( Contribs ) 18:14, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

Happy Leap Day
Happy Leap Day, btw.

I got rid of my RfA. I'm so tired of people grumbling and complaining about everything, and I'm not ready yet. I need to focus on my academic stuff. Perhaps this summer. | ' '  ( Contribs ) 03:14, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
 * It's just that I'm so exhausted. Between school, people, and seeing things like this and this really frustrate me. | ' '  ( Contribs ) 03:28, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Yeah, you're strong. Also, your archive is like this for me. | ' '  ( Contribs ) 08:17, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
 * How is that the case? | ' '  ( Contribs ) 18:53, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Interesting... I see it the exact opposite; I'm too cowardly to even think of going to surgery. | ' '  ( Contribs ) 23:45, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
 * And, yes, I could. :) | ' '  ( Contribs ) 23:46, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

RE:Calm It
Hey calm down, it is not neccasary to lose your cool like you did here. Please remember WP:CIVIL and please take a breather. Rgoodermote  23:47, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

Sorry. I have anger management issues...Plus, i had a bad day at school...SLJCOAAATR 1 (talk) 00:00, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

You are invited!
In the afternoon, we will hold a session dedicated to meta:Wikimedia New York City activities, and have salon-style group discussions on Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia projects (see the last meeting's minutes).

Well also make preparations for our exciting Wikipedia Takes Manhattan event, a free content photography contest for Columbia University students planned for Friday March 28 (about 2 weeks after our meeting).

In the evening, we'll share dinner and chat at a local restaurant, and (weather permitting) hold a late-night astronomy event at Columbia's telescopes.

You can add or remove your name from the New York City Meetups invite list at Meetup/NYC/Invite list.

You're also invited to subscribe to the public Wikimedia New York City mailing list, which is a great way to receive timely updates. This has been an automated delivery because you were on the invite list. BrownBot (talk) 03:26, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

Food for Thought
I have a new section on my Food for Thought page. I'd love to hear what you or anyone else would have to say. the Awesomest  Vampirechick  18:55, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

It's okay. I'm not trying to make people mad, I'm just curious. I don't want to make anyone feel uncomfortable. I'm sorry if I offended you (or anyone else for that matter) the Awesomest   Vampirechick  18:41, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

Aishwarya Rai
I am not sure if you intended this edit but I reverted as vandalism. Rgoodermote  13:41, 13 March 2008 (UTC)


 * This is what happens when too many people rush to revert vandalism. :) --thunderboltz(TALK) 13:45, 13 March 2008 (UTC)


 * From what I see in this edit you seemed to revert to another state of vandalism. So I was curious. Rgoodermote  13:47, 13 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Anyways, it seems to be an interesting mistake so I am just going to continue with patrols. Have a good one. Rgoodermote  13:51, 13 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Yep, that's what happened. I accidentally rolled back to a vandalised version, which you reverted, only to lead to yet another vandalised version. Good luck with the patrols. :)--thunderboltz(TALK) 14:05, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

Re: RfA
Okey dokey, shall do. – The  Obento   Musubi  17:49, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Alright, but can we do it a bit later (in an hour or so)? I have so many quizzes and tests coming up today and tomorrow, and I must prepare right now for my impromptu speech (which isn't really an impromptu). Pardon the inconvenience! – The  Obento   Musubi  17:58, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I did it, and you can see it at WP:Requests for adminship/Rgoodermote 2. I have a request. I couldn't access your edit contributions page, so please replace # contributions with the real number. Thanks! – The  Obento   Musubi  18:30, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Left you some questions, just FYI. Tiptoety  talk 22:57, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

Closed your RfA
Hey, I just closed it as withdrawn, there is just too much content to delete it. During your next RfA just explain the situation, it will not hurt you. Cheers, Tiptoety  talk 03:43, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry it didn't work out. If you need any help, feel free to leave me a message on my new page. Peace! – The  Obento   Musubi  08:51, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Nah, you shouldn't say that. It's not a waste of time. Look, I'm just gonna keep editing Wikipedia and I'm going to wait another while to either be nominated or nominate myself for adminship. I hope I am helping the community out more, and I can't wait to see what happens. In the meantime, you should just edit more pages. That'll help you a lot. – The  Obento   Musubi  16:25, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Okey dokey. – The  Obento   Musubi  16:31, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Why so long? – The  Obento   Musubi  16:33, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

I feel like a stalker now. Malinaccier (talk) 00:59, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Creepy....... :P Tiptoety  talk 03:52, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Okay I create that subpage for ya, you can find it here. And yes, Malinaccier if you want to add to it, feel free. Let me know if you have any questions. Cheers, Tiptoety  talk 03:52, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Alright, I am currently working on a list of articles that you may be interested in contributing to, I noticed that you said you read the Noble Dead series, then I noticed it was a red link...see where I am going here. It is a topic you know a fair amount about, and enjoy reading, so why not make an article for it? Please remember WP:NB though when you are making it. Let me know if you need any help. Tiptoety  talk 18:28, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Thank you
Thank you for doing that, although it wasn't necessary. My old page doesn't exist anyway, so... But, thanks for doing it anyway. It means a lot. :) –The Obento   Musubi  ( Contributions ) 03:44, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

Happy First Day of Spring!
Well, it's not the first day anymore, but Happy Spring anyway!! –The Obento   Musubi  ( Contributions ) 05:01, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

You have a coach?
Hey there Rgood, I was just taking a look at your edits to see if we might be able to hook you up with a coach and noticed that you appear to have one already? As such, I'm going to remove you from the list. If this is incorrect, please add yourself back. thanksBalloonman (talk) 08:14, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
 * ooops, I think I misread it... I am looking at your edits though... If they look good, I'll see what I can do about hooking you up with a coach.Balloonman (talk) 08:15, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I would be happy to be your admin coach. If you're fine with this, create a subpage in your userspace and we'll get started. Nishkid64 (Make articles, not love) 17:43, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
 * User:Rgoodermote/Admin coaching is fine. Nishkid64 (Make articles, not love) 17:50, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Just give me a little intro to yourself. You are a total stranger right now, and I would like to know who I'm working with. :) Nishkid64 (Make articles, not love) 23:02, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

WikiProject Pokémon
The list of participants of the Pokémon WikiProject is quite sizable, however, there is no way to determine which of whom are active contributors to that project. All participants in the list have been moved to Inactive. If you consider yourself to be an active member of the Pokémon WikiProject, please go to WikiProject Pokémon and move your username to the Active section. Thank you.

What is this?
You just sent me a message dated for July 2007 about a warning on a page I've never been on... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:75.57.186.41 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.57.186.41 (talk) 19:38, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

Chris Chelios Article
I know had messaged me about my addition to the Chelios page. I also linked a video but it was removed because it didn't go with wiki standards. This video is proof of him saying "he hates detroit...etc." Here is the link, if you'd like to add it properly. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n9kZbdnzMRQ this is proof that during his last season (directly before his trade to detroit) that he said what I put into the article. Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.41.185.24 (talk) 19:46, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

Your sig
...I like it, so I stole it. I mean, I stole the formatting and stuck my own info in there. I'm not going around signing your name, just using your style. Just wanted to acknowledge from whence I stole it. :-) - Philippe  00:16, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

Re: Aquamarine
She left Wikipedia because English is technically her second language, and she, although fluent in English, can't really write coherently in English. –The Obento   Musubi  ( Contributions ) 04:06, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I don't think she does... –The Obento   Musubi  ( Contributions ) 04:39, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

Vandalism


T he  C hronic  has smiled at you! Smiles promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better. Spread the WikiLove by smiling at someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Cheers, and happy editing! Smile at others by adding {{subst:Smile}} to their talk page with a friendly message. Thank you very much for reverting the vandalism off my userpage. I appreciate it.

AIV Report.
I understand its April Fools day and all, but I feel that AIV isn't the appropriate place to play pranks. Cheers, Steve Crossin (talk to me) 14:36, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

Fair enough, but I actually took the report seriously, it was an admin who removed the report. Well, it happens, but there is a line between jokes and seriousness. Anyway, no harm done :)Steve Crossin (talk to me) 14:43, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

I left him a note here Steve Crossin (talk to me) 14:51, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

April Fools
For the hell of it I put it on my userspace. That ok with you? Rgoodermote  12:02, 1 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Fine by me. Just make sure to take it down at the end of the day - such things don't normally go over too well. Hers fold  (t/a/c) 15:17, 1 April 2008 (UTC)


 * I remember the incident with User:Certified.Gangsta. I see he still has it up to. Rgoodermote   15:20, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

Re: Your funny joke
Haha, thanks. The same goes for you, bub! If you continue killing with your kindness, you will receive a barnstar... sooner or later... –The Obento   Musubi  ( Contributions ) 18:26, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Heh, I did the same, only to my old account saying it impersonated me before I disappeared. (here) –The Obento   Musubi  ( Contributions ) 18:41, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
 * You shouldn't've told me that. I reported him! –The  Obento   Musubi  ( Contributions ) 18:49, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

Hola
A decir verdad, me parece que tu hablar en español es muy avanzado. Si quieres, te recomiendo que lo hagas. Dime algo, ¿por qué quieres irse de aquí? –The Obento   Musubi  ( Contributions ) 17:35, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Pues, tu oración traduce: "Why do we want to leave here?" Pero, mi oracion traduce: "Why do you want to leave here?" Algunas palabras que usas me parecen un poco extraños, pero puedo comprenderlos. –The Obento   Musubi  ( Contributions ) 17:47, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Admin coaching
Heh, well I'm glad you're back. I left you a question on User:Rgoodermote/Admin coaching. Once you answer it, we can really get started! :) Nishkid64 (Make articles, not love) 16:19, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
