 ! NOTE
Please note the following guidelines for my talkpage:
-DO watch or pay attention to my talk page. If contacted here, I will reply here to avoid a divided conversation. Likewise, if I start a conversation on your talk page, and you attempt to divide it, I will cross-post my original statement here and reply here.
-DO sign your posts with ~~~~ - it makes it far easier to determine who added a comment and when.
-DO respect the userbox to the left and do not ask for aid in those topic areas.
-DO NOT discuss FlaggedRevs at all. I will delete all such messages on sight. This includes discussion of Reviewer-related topics. (See the userbox to the left, too.)
-DO NOT ask me to review administrator actions - As of July 11, 2010 I do not have that power.
-DO NOT post here if Grawp is attacking a Wikipedia page. Instead, contact an administrator privately.
-DO NOT, if you are an administrator, protect this talk page. We have an abuse filter for a reason. Use it.
-DO NOT use any slurs whatsoever - I will delete the comment and all further ones from you off of my talk page.

[edit] Link?

Jeske, the link to your essay in your answer to question 2 on the RfA is showing as a redlink. Is there a typo or something? I ask because I'd very much like to read the essay, not only regarding the RfA. Regards, Newyorkbrad (talk) 12:21, 24 August 2011 (UTC)

Odds are it is; let me look at my watchlist and I'll fix the link. —Jeremy v^_^v Components:V S M 12:22, 24 August 2011 (UTC)
Fixed; missed a capital letter. —Jeremy v^_^v Components:V S M 12:24, 24 August 2011 (UTC)

[edit] So...

Endless games of protect and unprotect are productive then? I am trying to suggest a way around that. LadyofShalott 02:05, 25 August 2011 (UTC)

Speaking from experience, it's the only practical alternative. He's attempting to keep legitimate IPs or other users from contacting us by forcing us to semiprot and/or spam death threats he's too cowardly to make himself. (FYI, the subpage option doesn't work. I've tried it.) —Jeremy v^_^v Components:V S M 02:07, 25 August 2011 (UTC)
The parenthetical part of your response above was the information I needed. It would have been more helpful (and frankly much less aggravating) if you had said that from the start - even in the edit summary where you removed my first post. LadyofShalott 02:11, 25 August 2011 (UTC)

[edit] User talk:BreeBaby2282

I declined the speedy deletion nomination on User talk:BreeBaby2282. personal attacks, by definition, need to be directed at someone. That was just a random vandalizing message, not a personal attack, and, as such, doesn't justify speedy deletion. Blanking the content and warning the user is sufficient. If the comment was on someone's else's talk page, it might possibly qualify for RevDel, although that would be a discretionary issue. Qwyrxian (talk) 06:40, 25 August 2011 (UTC)

(through forced smile) Thank you, I will keep that in mind. —Jeremy (v^_^v Contributions) 06:41, 25 August 2011 (UTC)

[edit] For your information

We've had a username pop up on WP:UAA that might interest you: Jeskenazi (talk · contribs). So far, no indication of bad faith, but I saw the name and figured I'd let you know. Cheers, m.o.p 17:42, 27 September 2011 (UTC)

Whack it. —Jeremy v^_^v Components:V S M 19:15, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
Done. m.o.p 20:35, 27 September 2011 (UTC)

[edit] MfD

That MfD !vote was awesome. Raymie (tc) 04:05, 2 October 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Request for action at Talk:Anderson Cooper

You now seem to be in a dialogue with this editor. Is action still required? Could you indicate at WP:RFPP. Ta --Elen of the Roads (talk) 12:18, 13 October 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Arbitration report

Hullo Jéské. The regular writer of the Signpost's Arbitration report stepped down last week and I was wondering, seeing as you are listed as a backup writer, whether you might be able to fill in? It would be much appreciated, as we are rather understaffed at the moment. Regards, Skomorokh 23:31, 16 December 2011 (UTC)

Hi Jéské, can you let me know if you're still willing to serve as a writer for the Arb report? Skomorokh 21:29, 20 December 2011 (UTC)

At present, no. I've been fighting almost-persistent migraines for the past couple months and have not been keeping up with events. —Jeremy v^_^v Components:V S M 21:32, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
Talkpage stalker here. Sympathy with the migraines. Not going to offer a cure - you've probably tried them all by now except the Ancient Egyptian one of applying a live Nile catfish (the electric Nar fish) to your temples. --Elen of the Roads (talk) 22:10, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
I was worried you were going to suggest that other Ancient Egyptian cure, extracting the offending grey matter through the nasal passage. No worries Jéské, hope you get well soon and can enjoy your holidays. Skomorokh 22:12, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
I'm right now using loratadine as a prophylactic; it's working. —Jeremy v^_^v Components:V S M 00:20, 21 December 2011 (UTC)
That might work. And be more pleasant than an electric catfish. I get terrible migraines sometimes, so I do sympathise.Elen of the Roads (talk) 00:33, 21 December 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Secure poll

Hi: '...the 2010 Oversight/Checkuser elections, and it wound up, rather infamously,' Can you give me a link to any discussions surrounding this? I'm curious to know what happened. Thanks. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 13:06, 20 December 2011 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/CheckUser and Oversight/May 2010 election is the main page, and after the announcement of the poll results at the ArbCom noticeboard, an RfC was opened. The general consensus there was that SecurePoll was the direct cause or a cofactor of Amalthea (and nobody else) receiving CU or OS rights. —Jeremy v^_^v Components:V S M 21:17, 20 December 2011 (UTC)

[edit] All that twitters is not bold

An excellent edit summary! - Sitush (talk) 19:37, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

I would like to thank my good friend Warriv for that. :3 —Jeremy v^_^v Components:V S M 19:53, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
