User talk:Neil/RFA spam

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lots of people like to leave little thank you messages when you vote on their request for adminship. Whilst these are always appreciated, they tend to clog up the main talk page. Particularly when you lazy types (you know who you are) who use AWB. For shame! Please put your RFA messages (thanks, hate, neutral respect and admiration, offers of hot man love*, whatever) here. RFA messages put on the main talk page will be excised and dumped here with the (appropriately loving and respectful) quickness.

And please put your name in the header, not just 'My RFA'.

An interesting fact - you can tell who the lazy people whose thanks mean nothing are by looking at which messages say "Hi, Neil/RFA Spam".

*Offers of hot man love will at no time be accepted.

I'm sorry you found reason to object to my adminship, but now that I've been promoted, I'd like to clear the slate. If you have any specific issues/problems with me, please feel free to state them on my talk page so that I can work to prevent them in the future.  ALKIVAR 07:20, 8 November 2005 (UTC)

Johann Wolfgang's RfA

Thank you for voting on my RfA. I realize that I have not been here long, however other users said I would do just fine as an administrator, so I followed their advice. I have, recently, switched from writing articles to doing admin-like tasks. I have written plenty of articles, you can see them farther back in my contributions. I have also started up (again) WikiProject Numismatics, if that is what you mean by 'other facets of Wikipedia'. Thank you again for voting. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.

Have a nice day!

Johann Wolfgang [ T ...C ] 17:52, 8 November 2005 (UTC)

Thanks, it seems my RfA will be 'no consensus' this time so I'll probably have an RfA in January. Again thank you for voting.

Halibutt's RfA

Thanks. WikiThanks.
I would like to express my thanks to all the people who took part in my (failed) RfA voting. I was both surprised and delighted about the amount of support votes and all the kind words! I was also surprised by the amount of people who stated clearly that they do care, be it by voting in for or against my candidacy. That's what Wiki community is about and I'm really pleased to see that it works.
As my RfA voting failed with 71% support, I don't plan to reapply for adminship any more. However, I hope I might still be of some help to the community. Cheers! Halibutt 05:10, 29 November 2005 (UTC)

Mushroom's Thank you!

Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Lulu of the Lotus-Eaters

Any chance I might persuade you to reconsider your opposition? Since I was nominated, I'd like it to pass. You raise several issues, that others have mentioned. One is vandalism: indeed, I committed exactly one act of vandalism, and reverted it myself after 3 minutes, 9 months ago, and prior to 95%+ of my WP editing. The other is the 8 month old RfC. That RfC remains as insubstantial now as it was when written: no complaint was stated, and no effort at "resolution" had ever been made.

The truth is that I will probably continue to strive to bring a number of controversial topics toward NPOV (whether or not promoted to adminship), and the chance of encountering another spurious RfC against me at some point is almost guaranteed. I've found, over time, that most of those threatening to write one get themselves blocked from WP (either long-term or indefinitely, prior to writing it: I can list about ten examples, literally, of people who threatened an RfC against me, and have been blocked... not by me, obviously, and for reasons little related to anything I ever did). I really encourage you to look at my answer to one of the questions about how NPOV editors in conflict-prone topics seem to be de facto prevented from adminship, even though such are very much needed.

On the last thing, however, I certainly cannot in good faith make any recusal from editing David Mertz. I may well, in practice, not do so, since it doesn't look like there's going to be anything needing fixing, and it's watchlisted against vandalism by enough editors now. But the principle is just simply wrong, and winning adminship is not worth violating my principles, and more importantly, encyclopedic principles (though it seems pretty clear I could win some votes by telling an untrue sob story about how wrong I was to edit the page on me while conforming with WP:NPOV and WP:NOR). That's not going to change with a couple months, or a year, or a decade: an unreflective ban on editors working on topics they are knowledgeable is just plain wrong. Lulu of the Lotus-Eaters 17:49, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

Smurrayinchester's Thanks

My admin request went up in flames. (But thanks anyways!)

Hey, Proto, I wanted to thank you for your support of my (unfortunately unsuccessful) request for adminship. The final tally was 37/16/5, which fell short of the needed 75-80% for "consensus". I'm really sorry about your RFA, too. You're one of the more awesome editors on Wikipedia, IMO, and you were even before voting on my RFA! ;) I wish you the absolute best of luck next time. I don't know if or when I'll go up for nomination again, but even if I don't, I will try not to betray the trust that you and 36 others were willing to place in me. Thanks for having faith in me... and happy editing! And maybe next time (if there is a next time)... we'll sweep! Matt Yeager (Talk?) 01:04, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

Joke's RfA

Hi Proto, thanks for voting and for your comments in my (successful) RfA. All the voters who voted neutral or oppose had the same criticism – lack of involvement in the Wikipedia namespace. This is nice, because it is a weakness that I can endeavor to fix. Although I don't think I have the disposition or diligence to be actively involved with, say, VfD, I've recently started to participate in the Featured Article discussions and will start participating in some policy discussions now that I am starting to grasp the way the project runs. –Joke 16:53, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

CTAGON's RFA

Hi, just wanted to thank you for voting on my RFA, which went through with a count of (58/0/1), far better than I'd expected. I intend to take things slowly and start using the extra abilities gradually, but if there's anything I can do just leave a message. Cheers, CTOAGN (talk) 13:54, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

Josiah Rowe's Thanks

Thanks for taking the time to vote in my RfA, which passed with a final vote of 54/2/1 despite my obvious inadequacy for the job. I'll do my level best to use the mop and bucket — or, as I said in my RfA, plunger — responsibly. Of course, in the best tradition of politicans everywhere, I've already broken a campaign promise (I blocked a vandal last night despite having said "I don't anticipate using the blocking tool very often"). Nevertheless, I'll try not to let the unbridled power corrupt me. —Josiah Rowe (talkcontribs) 14:56, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

Although you didn't give me a support vote, I would nevertheless like to thank you for your helpful comments and offer a helping hand in any admin-related tasks that may be required -- it's as simple as leaving a message on my talkpage. Thanks again! -→Buchanan-Hermit/!? 22:40, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

While I am leaving a message for everyone who voted (either way) in my now-failed RfA, I wanted to thank you specifically for your support and for helping to clear up the block issue. I've seen you around quite a bit, and have been very impressed, so it meant a great deal to have your support. If you have any advice as to how to do better next time, it would be quite appreciated!

Hello, and thank you for the support on my recent RfA. The final tally was 63/3/2, and I have now been entrusted with the mop.

Neil/RFA spam

Thanks for your support on my successful Request for Adminship (final result 78 Support /0 Oppose / 1 Neutral) I have now been entrusted with the mop, bucket and keys. I will be slowly acclimating myself to my new tools over the next months. I am humbled by your kind support and would certainly welcome any feedback on my actions. Please do not hesitate to contact me. Once again, many thanks and happy new year! All the best, Asteriontalk 15:50, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for your support in my request for adminship which closed successfully last night. Feel free to let me know if I can help you with something or if I have made a mistake. I would also like to encourage you to vote often (just in case you don't) on other candidates since we need more admins. And just in case you missed it, the 96 is not my birth year but the year I met my wife. I am not THAT young. Happy editing, Garion96 (talk) 00:04, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

Heimi's RfA thanks

Hi, Neil/RFA spam, I just wanted to thank you for your support on my RfA, which was successful with a final tally of 61/0/2. I'm honored at the trust the community has placed in me and hope my conduct as an administrator will justify that trust. If you have any comments about my use of the tools I would be glad to hear from you on my talk page. Thanks again!

RfA thanks (Bubba hotep)

Ooer, sorry Neil, was expecting to leave a message for Proto here but seems he has absconded! Anyway, sorry, no invasive images, flashy text boxes or form messages here, just a personal thanks for your emphatic support at my RfA. To say I am humbled by the level of support is an understatement, and I am particularly gratified with yours which means a lot to me, I must say. Anyway, enough of the hugging. If you see me step out of line, I will expect a personal bollocking, without prejudice, from your good self. Indeed, I look forward to it! Keep up the immense work. :) Bubba hotep 23:42, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for your support on my RfA. It passed with 55/0/0. I'll try my best to be worthy of the trust the community has put in me.

Thank you for your support at my recent Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Angus Lepper RfA, which failed, with no consensus to promote me. However, I appreciate the concerns raised during the course of the discussion (most notably, a lack of experience, particularly in admin-heavy areas such as XfDs and policy discussions) and will attempt to address these before possibly standing again in several months time.

Thank you for supporting my RfA, which unfortunately didn't succeed.

Dearest Supporter,

Thank you for your participation in my RFA, which closed unsuccessfully with 39 supports, 15 oppose, and 1 neutral. I would have liked to gain some experience of being an admin, but it wasn't to be. At least I gained some valuable time there and will use my knowledge picked up to my next candidacy. I would like to say once again, thank you for voting and I hope to see you at my next request be it a nomination or self-induced, I hope I don't get as many questions!

OhanaUnited's RfA

No one expects a Pigman admin!

Wallowing in my RfA: This time it's personal...
My sincere thanks for your support in my request for adminship, which ended with 51 supports, 0 opposes, and 0 neutral. Doubtless it was an error to put one of the government-bred race of pigmen in any position of authority, but I hope your confidence in me proves justified. Even a man pure of heart and who says his prayers at night can become a were-boar when the moon is full and sweet. Fortunately, I'm neither a were-pig nor pure of heart so this doesn't appear to be an imminent danger to Wikipedia for the moment. Fortunate as well because were-pig hooves are hell on keyboards and none too dexterous with computer mice. If ever I should offend, act uncivil, misstep, overstep, annoy, violate policy, or attempt to topple the fascist leadership of Wikipedia, please let me know so I can improve my behaviour and/or my aim. I am not an animal; I am an admin. And, of course, if there is any way in which I can help you on Wikipedia, please do not hesitate to ask me. Despite my japes, I am indeed dedicated to protecting and serving Wikipedia to the best of my foppish and impudent abilities. I will strive to be an admirable admin, shiny and cool, reasonable and beatific. Pigmanwhat?/trail 05:14, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
Post Scriptum: I believe my collaged graphic at left, which incorporates the WP globe and mop image, falls under the rubric of parody for my purposes here. Or is it satire? Regardless, it's a legitimate and legally protected First Amendment usage under US law. Complaints and allegations that this is an improper "fair use" image will be entertained on my talk page, probably with fruit juice, finger food and exotic coffees.

Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Elonka 3

Thank you for your participation in my RfA. It was definitely a dramatic debate that landed on WP:100, but ultimately was deemed a successful declaration of consensus, and I am now an admin. I definitely paid close attention to everything that was said in the debate, and, where possible, I will try to incorporate the (constructive) criticism towards being a better administrator. I'm taking things slowly for now, partially because of the holidays and all the off-wiki distractions. I'm working my way through the Wikipedia:New admin school, carefully double-checking the relevant policies, and will gradually phase into the use of the new tools, with my main goals being to help out with various backlogs. I sincerely doubt you'll see anything controversial coming from my new access level. :) I also fully intend to keep on writing articles, as there are a few more that I definitely want to get to WP:FA status. If you do ever have any concerns about my activities as an administrator, I encourage you to let me know. My door is always open. Have a good new year, --Elonka 19:10, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
