[edit] 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 04:02, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

I'll have to concur on this. Further, you, Sethie stated: "Trust me- I didn't waste a full three minutes on this "article."" From that alone, it is clear that you are disqualified from any further involvement in the matter as per Wikipedia Policy, wherewith I am sure you are familiar.

Warning

Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly, as you are doing at Liite Buddhism. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. Rather than reverting, discuss disputed changes on the talk page. The revision you want is not going to be implemented by edit warring. Thank you.

[edit] Hi Sethie, need help

Good morning,

You recently edited my information on Steve Maraboli.

I understand the pages have problems. I Ask that you please help me make it fit in the guidelines.

I was not trying to make it sound like a vanity piece about Steve, but now that I read it over (after reading the COI page) I guess I didn't do such a good job.

I am an A Better Today staff member and enjoy Wikipedia very much and would love to have Steve's page fit with the rest. I just need help.

Thank you.

Have a nice day!

- Dana

Hi Dana!

I am open to working with you on it... and I'd ask that you not remove any more tags until the problems are addrrssed.

Thanks, Sethie (talk) 16:57, 21 January 2008 (UTC)


Hi!

Great! Thank you so much! I won't change anything until you say so.

- Dana —Preceding unsigned comment added by Abettertoday (talk • contribs) 22:12, 21 January 2008 (UTC)


Heya Dana-

I am headed on a wikibreak... it's not that you shouldn't touch the page... it's just I see you have removed three tags... without, from my opinion, addressing the issues.

I have asked for some others to look at the page and help you out.

Warmly, Sethie (talk) 01:14, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Forgot my password

Hi Sethie, my account name is freelion and I forgot my password after I upgraded my machine. I haven't registered an email address on the account. Is there any hope for me to get my account back? 60.241.68.183 (talk) 12:15, 3 February 2008 (UTC)


Hi.

Good question!

I would reccomend asking here [[1]]. Good luck! Seth Sethie (talk) 17:32, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] List of satanic ritual abuse allegations‎

In its present form, it is a simple, unquestioning list of every time some ill-informed reporter, cop or preacher claimed SRA. I don't have to tell you how contentious this topic is. --Orange Mike | Talk 17:40, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

Well, that's you POV.
It all comes down to sources, not your opinion of the sources, I will take a closer look. If the sources are fine, your objections are groundless.
Also please not the name of the article, ALLEGATIONS. Sethie (talk) 17:46, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Talk:Golden plates‎

I added a comment in support of yours. This sort of crap is regularly being promoted to FA and gets selected as FAOTD. I have just made some changes to the nonsense about Angel Moroni ie change "said" which carries implication of general acceptance of truth of statement to "claimed". We shall see if these survive. Albatross2147 (talk) 13:09, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

I reverted them; please review policies on how we use such words such as "claim". I am more than happy to compromise, but that is not a word that should be used unless your objective is to cast doubt, which is not acceptable. --Storm Rider (talk) 08:24, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
Of course [WP:WTA]] is not a policy. It is style guideline. But if SR believes it is a policy then it must be so. Albatross2147 (talk) 02:59, 10 February 2008 (UTC)


[edit] Sahaja Yoga

Point out the specific statement, which tantamount to nonsense, personal comments, insult etc. how long has it been that you are involved with the nonsense you are referring to on this page ? --Cult free world (talk) 19:42, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

Here is one "Where is the minority ? removal of such information from encyclopedia article, is a push to hide facts (well referenced and properly sourced), by brainwashed zombies"

Reffering to Sahaja Yoga as a gang (and then striking it out?)

I never said I was involved in the nonsense, so I can't respond to your other question. Sethie (talk) 19:45, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] "Neutrality is disputed" tag

Hi Sethie, it concerns me that rectifying the neutrality on the Sahaja Yoga page is taking so long. I have only mentioned the first section, and there are many other sections which I find are not using neutral wording. The process is currently being stalled by argument. Is this argument not proof enough that the neutrality of the article is disputed? Could you please insert the tag so that it acts as a disclaimer at least. Freelion (talk) 05:39, 13 February 2008 (UTC)


Hey there

I don't have the power to do that... and also I believe concensus is against that. I believe you are the only one seeing serious neutrality issues.

That's not to say I don't think the article can't be improved and I just don't see any serious NPOV issues with the article. Sethie (talk) 05:43, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] February 2008

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Golden Plates, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed.

[edit] Reactive attachment disorder

Hi. This article is currently undergoing a review for FAC. In the circumstances could you please discuss any proposed changes on the talkpage or Project comment page first. I'm not saying your edit isn't right - its just that it makes it difficult for reviewers and editors to deal with FAC issues if it keeps changing. Fainites barley 07:51, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] sethie you recently edited...

Sethie.. you recently edited a quote I put in the "Life Coaching" section from a famous life coach named Jamie Karia. My problem I had is I dont understand what I did wrong. There's a lot of information on that page leaning towards Life Coaching being a joke, but someone tries to stick in a good word for it and it gets removed. Next questions is, how do I get it to stick? What did I do wrong?

Let me know because I want that quote there and I don't think it should have been removed. thanks.

[edit] End of planet Earth

I've had a look at End of planet Earth. The article is mostly original research. What isn't original research is uncited facts, some of which are unverifiable, others of which are blantantly false. The subject matter in the article is already discussed in a much more thorough manner in Earth, and the information in Earth is well-supported by verifiable citations. I don't see anything worth merging into Earth from End of planet Earth. I think it would be better to remove the merge take and proceed towards deletion. Let me know what you think about it on the talk page: Talk:End of planet Earth. Thanks. Dgf32 (talk) 02:41, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] NEWBORN

Another editor has added the {{prod}} template to the article NEWBORN, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

[edit] User:80.80.162.253

I love Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism, don't you? Grsz11 (talk) 22:31, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

) Nice.

I honestly wasn't sure if it was vandalism or not... I tried the 3rr page with no results. Thanks for the help.

Schucks, I'm gonna miss that guy. Sethie (talk) 22:38, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] AfD question

Not sure what the question was, but if you're asking whether AfD contributors will help sort out the article, the answer in my experience is "sometimes". --Dweller (talk) 23:38, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

The question is- in your experience, do those who start the AfD "vote" or not? Sethie (talk) 00:24, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
Whether they do or don't doesn't mean they need to. However, I think I've been a little off with you at the AfD and I'm heading there to apologise. --Dweller (talk) 10:26, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] EBAY

Pardon my language but holy fuck! I wonder if my posting to the talk page had anything to do with the increase in price? Note that the other garment didn't increase that much in price. Perhaps it has to do with the white stain? Pocopocopocopoco (talk) 03:01, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

lol!!! Those stains seem to be problematic....
I think she needs to give you a cut... it was your link that led me to the site. Btw I tip my hat- I was a bit of an ass with my post and you responded with good humor. Well... ughhh said. :) Sethie (talk) 03:05, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
hopefully those high bids aren't Jimmy using wikipedia money to buy them back. [[2]]!!!! Sethie (talk) 03:07, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
Lol! I'd ask for a cut by posting to her IP address that she uses to complain about the article in talk space but that woman scares me a little. Pocopocopocopoco (talk) 03:43, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
She has intense eyes... and intense breakups!
I feel for her and Jimmy- I have done my share of embarrassing things.... I'm just not famous enough for anyone to care! :) Sethie (talk) 04:00, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Thank you

Thank you for your support and if you want to you could add {{User:Uga Man/Userbox}} to your userpage.--Uga Man (talk) UGA MAN FOR PRESIDENT 2008 19:09, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
