Ah Ha ! You're reading my miserable efforts at article writing and sorting them out! Saw two flag up on the watch list. Thanks TwoOars! Pedro | Chat  14:31, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Heh. Caught me. - Two Oars  (Rev)  14:32, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Yeah! Seriously, the more the merrier. They're not great articles (though they made DYK). Other than when they had the main page entries, very little has been done other than by me - it's brilliant to have some fresh eyes on the text, particularly the edits you just did to Twyford School and my spelling error on borders - doh doh doh!!! Pedro | Chat  14:37, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

Thanks!
Thanks a lot for your help. I couldn't figure out what was going on! Anyway, thanks again. :)

Good evening, Two Oars
I would like to thank you again for helping me with my article.You were truly a big help, saving my article like that! I have put more references in Spanish, Portuguese and Romanian, you might want to check it out and tell me if it is OK. Is it still deletable? Yes, you told me to find reference in English, but there are so many in other languages. By the way, I hope this is the right place to contact you. I thought that if I write to you from my page, how will you know about it? I am a bit upset about this. I am sorry I deleted the warning messages, but they were coming in as I was writing the article, they didn't even let me finish the article. I am studying hard now, I Want to be a wikipidian!However, I am getting lost in the Help material, it is so much stuff there! Thank you so much, you have been very kind. I wish you a great evening,Arind 23:24, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

Wow, thanks! And I also wikilove the headline; it's a close second to this one :) — [&#8239;aldebaer&#8288;] 22:05, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

Your comment has been replied to on this RfA.  Lra drama 10:47, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

Re:User:68.236.24.19
Just letting you know, it looks like this person is here solely for the purpose of disrupting Wikipedia. He's obsessed with Star Trek's "Immunity Syndrome" episode where they encounter a giant Amoeba in space and he has to keep adding that reference to the Amoeba article. Likewise he keeps changing the "Immunity Syndrome" where he adds a personal comments about this being the point where teh show "jumped the shark". He keeps violating the 3RR, been told numerous times to stop and makes personal attacks against those who tell him. He's been banned for 24 hours already but like clockwork, once the ban lifted he's back at it again. He needs to be perma-banned apparently. Cyberia23 15:07, 19 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Yeah someone blocked him for a week because he went right back to vandalizing again. Cyberia23 20:33, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

Thank you
I passed my RfA, and couldn't have done it without your trust and support. Thank you very much. — Hex    (❝  ?!  ❞)   12:55, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Barneca RfA thank you spam
TwoOars, thank you for your support during my RfA, especially after the concerns that were brought up by other editors. I'll keep all of the comments in mind in the coming months, and will try again later. In the mean time, if you see me doing something stupid, please let me know. See you around. --barneca (talk) 13:07, 20 September 2007 (UTC) Bold text

I don't agree with u dood. Cliques form. They just happen and it has been happening that way since the dawn of time. The only way to abstain from it is to say, Hey Twooars, I enjoy working with you, but I can only do it every other Tuesday, because as we are heading in a direction where it may be construed that we are a clique. Besides I don't get the objection to cliques. Is it some residual disdain for high school that carries over into Wikipedia? I mean, cliques form at work, school, the internet, so why not here? It is inevitable. A Wikiproject is nothing more than a sanctioned clique of people that interact at predominantly the same pages. People are so quick to point out that Wikipedia is not a social networking site. I somewhat disagree. The very nature of consensus, talk pages, and voting is implicitly social. How about Wikimania? I suppose people there know each other. I would say so. I'm afraid I will still have to assert that your oppose is no good in my opinion. As far as being insane, ehh. I don't think it's insane nor do I feel you have any hint of insanity. I just think we disagree on the issue of socializing withing the construct of Wikipedia.

I didn't mean to offend. As to your telling me where to place questions to the opposer, I'll try not to take offense as I know where they go. I didn't question your oppose - I used it as part of a laundry list so there was no reason for me to put it in the 'right' place. It's ironic that you chose to bring this up on my talk page, as the proper place to respond to a comment, is underneath the original comment in an effort to keep a sense of continuity here at Wikipedia. <--- See how condescending that sounds. We both know where things go. Next time I question your reasoning, I'll send you a text ;) the_undertow talk  18:46, 27 September 2007 (UTC)


 * I think things are getting clearer. "Socializing" as in forgetting why we are here - yeah...that's a problem. I also am not the most tolerant with people bombing user pages with wikilove nor thanking them for their participation in RfA. We probably agree on socializing, but just haven't really discussed it in depth, until now. I'll call you later. the_undertow talk  18:31, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

Dear, i did the changes belong my article, can you check it? how i know when i publish it (jonh_creavs i think was it who tell me i can do this now)the guy who deleted it, will not delete it again? Thanks a lot, you are a GREAT support! really!

RfAs
Hi there. Thank you for the kind words about my my RfA, which passed 63 to 1. Thanks again, and I hope to do my best. Now, on those others: they were both close calls. I did look again at both EnSamulili and Samulili, and again came to the same conclusion on this one. The editor has less than 3,000 edits total on both accounts, often fails to use all-important edit summaries, and hasn't used Wikipedia space much -- i.e., AfD, AIV, etc. There is no way to measure the editor's potential effectiveness as a sysop. That is different from the Czech editor, User:Aktron, who is already a sysop elsewhere, although the consensus was against me. Bearian 13:16, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
 * For more information on my WP:RFA standards, I find this essay to be helpful. Bearian 13:23, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
 * I'll take a look again. I did not see anywhere that User:Samulili was already a sysp elsewhere in WP. Bearian 16:40, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

Requests for adminship
Wanted to say thanks for your support regarding my adminship proposal -and of course for taking the time to give me a once over. I hope to learn for this process as well, no matter how it turns out. I was just trying to avoid being too verbose (which I have a tendency to do) in my personal introduction statement. Short and sweet. Cheers and thank you again! Wisdom89 16:58, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

RFA Thanks
  Click there to open your card! → → → My dear Wikipedian Twooars, Thank you for your participation in my RFA, which closed successfully with 36 supports, 3 opposed, and 1 neutral. No matter if you !voted support, oppose, neutral, or even if you just stopped by to make a comment, I thank you for taking the time to drop by. Since I am a new admin, if you have any suggestions or concerns, feel free to inform me of them. Thank you and good day. The Placebo Effect

Credits
This RFA thanks was inspired by The Random Editor, who in turn was inspired by Phaedriel's RFA thanks. So unfortunately this is not entirely my own design.

This end the usual RFA thanks spam. You may return to your regular editing now.

My recent RfA
Thank you for supporting my RfA, which unfortunately didn't succeed. The majority of the opposes stated that I needed more experience in the main namespace and Wikipedia namespace, so that is what I will do. I will go for another RfA in two month's time and I hope you will be able to support me then as well. If you have any other comments for me or wish to be notified when I go for another RfA, please leave them on my talk page. If you wish to nominate me for my next RfA, please wait until it has been two months. Thanks again for participating in my RfA! -- Cobi(t 00:40, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

Image source problem with Image:Centriole-schema.SVG
Thanks for uploading Image:Centriole-schema.SVG. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 18:20, 25 October 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

Re:Hi

 * No worries at all, as I said we resolved the whole thing there and then. And thankyou for spotting the mistake in the reply to that RfA query, with the double negative and that! Totally unintentional! ;-)  Lra drama 07:23, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

Soulja Girl
Twooars,

U said: ''problem was with ({Soulja Boy}) which was vandalised. Now corrected.''. I dont understand.

1) The prob was the template or that Soulja Boy page?

2) I think the info is good & matters...it should stay. It jsut needs to be 1's owns, words,no copying from elsewhere. Thx.
 * The template Soulja Boy was vandalised, by adding material from the article Soulja Boy ie., the material is already there in the article Soulja Boy. Hope that makes it clear. You can also check the history of the template to see what I'm talking about. :) (I also added a note at User talk:70.108.99.177 but you are on a different IP now, which is why you didn't get to see it.) - Two Oars  (Rev)  21:29, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

Successful RfA - Thank you!

Biology collaboration
Sad but probably true. Seems people are mostly interested in military history and Pokemon. I've made pointers to the discussion at several locations, though I haven't gone to the trouble of posting in every science/biology project. Richard001 06:32, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

My (KWSN's) RFA
Thank you for supporting my recent (and successful!) RfA. It passed at at 55/17/6.  Kwsn  (Ni!)  01:06, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

I appreciate your comments
and have said something similar to Jmlk17 here. However, just to keep it from swamping my RfA, could it be taken even to the talk page, instead? I'm not going to delete anything (though if you want to move your own comments or the conversation and instead note the move, that would be fine), I just think the scope is going beyond the scope of one RfA.

Thank you so much for your support. --Thespian 10:22, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

Communication
Communication is the problem. I have social axiety. Even when I cannot see the person, I get nervous when "put on the spot" as I was in the Rfa. Also, since I would have worked with blocking, I only really focused on blocking policy. Other policies are not a area I know a lot about. I will be taking a better look at all the policies, and I will try to memorize much of them.--SJP 22:46, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

Admin?
Hi there, I was wondering if you had considered becoming an admin? I'd be happy to nominate you if you wanted to. Tim Vickers 18:11, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Ditto. But I'd advise not yet. Give it another 6-8 weeks. My talk page is open for further explanation, but I would most certainly support and be delighted to nominate in the near future. You're the kind of editor we need to have the buttons. Pedro :  Chat  20:09, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Actually, your response is exactly why you should be an admin! However I respect your belief in this (and agree totally) and should you ever change your mind I'd be delighted to support such a level headed and genuine editor. Best. Pedro : Chat  21:41, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

RfA
It's obvious you and I have differing opinions on RfA. I know you asserted what it actually is, but there is not rule on what is to be discussed. If two editors have put an issue to bed, I don't see why it is brought up at RfA but an uninvolved party. Just because what we do is public, doesn't mean it's applicable to the general public. Her answering of that question would be like talking out of school, and I really would look at her 9K edits in conjunction with the diff you stumbled upon. Regards, the_undertow talk  04:01, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
 * If I did that much work at GA, I'd take things personally as well. It's human. Besides, when people vandalize the guinea pig page, I get more pissed than usual, but it doesn't affect my skills as an admin. RfA is what you make of it, and we have different approaches. the_undertow talk  19:30, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

Your Q
Thank you for your question here; I'm glad a third party noticed. If I was offered an apology I must have missed it; she did apologize in that thread and then repeated the accusation subsequently. Marskell 11:30, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
