This user is currently busy in real life and may not respond swiftly to queries.
Welcome to my talk page! Please feel free to leave any comments, requests or suggestions. Just remember to follow talk page etiquette and sign your comments. I am an administrator on Wikipedia and you are welcome to request any admin assistance. However please read the following list.
Congratulations on you imminent promotion to sysop status Srikeit. You are truly an unsung hero of the project and it was a privilege to nominate you. As with the my other noms, the RfA statistics do not convey the magnitude of your contribution. All the best, Blnguyen | rant-line04:23, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
A nice protein structure for teh organic chemistry fanatic!All for you for your RfA success!
Congratulations!! You will make a fabulous admin until you turn rouge! Good luck and happy meddling with those tools! - Tangotango07:08, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I figured you had enough treats, but I brought some mithai anyway since that seems to be a theme here. :) Congratulations. - TaxmanTalk11:35, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Well darn it, I'm going to say "congrats" too. I'm so glad you had such strong support too. Its high time you were given the old mop and broom. Well done. Gwernol14:09, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Administrator
I just arrived at that summer institute yesterday and haven't had much of a chance to drop by. So here's a late but huge congratulations to Srikeit, our new admin! :) Cheers, Sango12312:24, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Congratulations! I'm so sorry I wasn't here to support you when you ran (I was on wikibreak); it would have definitely been a support vote from me. —Mets501 (talk)13:04, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, congratulations. I came a day late - yesterday, I could not come and misssed the party. You got so many supports! All the best! --Bhadani14:28, 18 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Hi. You recently shortened the block on 80.249.49.8, one of the IPs I edit from behind when I'm at work. Thanks. A very large number of schoolkids edit from behind that IP, though, so if it's not blocked then there's loads of vandalism. Now that soft blocking is an option, I suggest that you change the block to an infinite duration soft block. Thanks. --HughCharlesParker (talk - contribs) 14:46, 19 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Well its probably because I'm a n00b admin, but I really don't understand what you mean by soft-blocking. I shortened the block duration as it was a shared IP and there has been an instance of collateral damage occurring. IP's are never indef-blocked unless they're established to be open-proxies. Any further vandalism from this IP will be dealt with appropriate blocks. Thanks --Srikeit(Talk | Email)06:46, 20 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I moved your reply here to keep the conversation together. Soft blocking's only been available for about ten days - sorry, I should have given you more details. As a result of Tim Starling's recent work on MediaWikiBug 550, it's now possible to soft block IP addresses, so that anonymous users can't edit, but logged-in users can. In situations like this, that's exactly how it needs to be - this IP is the home to thousands upon thousands of schoolkids, so there's loads of vandalism when it's not blocked. On the other hand, there are plenty of good users editing through it too, both adults and kids. I'm not an admin, so I can't check, but I think if you go to block an IP address now it gives you a bunch of fairly self explanatory options. --HughCharlesParker (talk - contribs) 09:54, 20 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for contributing the impressive the pile of supports gathered on my RfA, which passed with a final tally of 0x0104/0x01/0x00. I'm happy that so many people have put faith in my abilities as an admin and promise to use the tools wisely and do my best not to let you down. If I ever may be of assistance, just leave a note on my talk page. Misza13, the rouge-on-demand admin wishes you happy editing!

Pardon me, I am not a "Wikipedian," but your people seem to be treating me like one. In a bad way. You Wikipedians keep sending warnings to 220.240.241.185, which is apparently me, even though I have no idea waht it means. Anyway, I, an innocent member of the public, am constantly blocked from contributing to Wikipedia, and I'm trying to find help to once again contribute by being unblocked. Could you, Srikeit, send my message to some higher-up and tell him to stop blocking 220.240.241.185. I would much appreciate it.
As I'm not a "Wikipedian" you will not be able to contact me as such, but send any reply to simon@leonsec.vic.edu.au if you help me.
Hi, when relisting afd discussions, please comment out the discussion on the older afd page (by adding <!-- before and --> after the line, such as here). Thanks. - Bobet11:04, 25 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, finally its protected. Too bad you didn't show up a minute later than you did, since he was on 3 reverts already:(. But thanks anyway, as this will force people to move on to the talk page. Better earlier than never:)--Kilhan05:46, 26 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Userpage sprotection
Hey, thanks for the quick semi-protection, Srikeit! I'm currently functioning on only four hours of sleep, but otherwise I'm quite well. :) How've you been? Regards, Sango12323:38, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Hey, Srikeit, thanks for supporting my RfA, with a tally of 104/4/7...
I am now an admin!!!
I was and still am very flattered by all the kind comments that I recieved, I will also take into account the comments about how I could improve. I guarantee I will try my best to further assist Wikipedia with the mop. Feel free to drop in and say hi or if you need anything. Again, thank you so much! Yanksox07:49, 29 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks!!! Abdullah Geelah16:40, 29 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
FAC
Hopefully you should see FAC today or within 2-3 days. Waiting for approval from Ambuj. You can just quickly read through the entire article and check for any errors. Both Nirav and I have are very familiar with the article and may not be able to spot some errors. - Aksi_great (talk - review me) 06:43, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think more photos are required. Though you can click a photo of the new flyover at Shreyas. Maybe we can add that to signify recent improvements in infrastructure. - Aksi_great (talk - review me) 06:51, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Are you using some automated tool for spell check? Does it have options to choose between American and British english? Some of the spellings that you have corrected are actually correct in British english. - Aksi_great (talk - review me) 08:01, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I have already reinstated the old spellings in some cases. Still, you can check if there are any more spellings left to be converted to British spellings. - Aksi_great (talk - review me) 08:10, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Your photos
Hello Srikeit. As usual, your photos of Ahmedabad really brighten up the day. I am thinking of which photo to use. I really like the first one a lot. There is one thing I wanted to tell you a long time back. Why don't you upload your images on commons? That would make these images available to all wikis. - Aksi_great (talk - review me) 13:41, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Thankyou for your participation in my RfA. Due to an almost even spread of votes between Oppose and Support (Final (16/13/6)) I have decided to withdraw for now and re-apply in a couple of months as suggested. I thank everyone for their kind support of my editorial skills; it meant a lot to me to get such strong recommendations from my fellow editors. If you ever have any hints as to how I can improve further, I would love to hear from you. ViridaeTalk15:24, 2 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Tabriz rug
Hi,
You have locked the Tabriz rug for further editing. But, there is one serious issue. The web page in its current format is pro-Iranian and most of the information lacks evidences. I would appreciate if you could include on the top of the page that this web page is disputed.
Can you please also assign to this web page one moderator or facilitator. Because I don't think that without the 3rd party involvement we can solve many of my disagreement with persian nationalists.
