''WHOIS will show the location of the ISP'' . I will check that out in future, It might have been a coincidence but at the time it seemed to be worth mentioning, thanks. [[User:Off2riorob|Off2riorob]] ([[User talk:Off2riorob|talk]]) 23:44, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

:It fools a lot of people, we Brits like to be different (I suspect it's cheaper for BT not to enable it!). It always fools the US web sites that try to place "local" adverts on a page - it thinks I'm (87.127.178.158) in Telford, when I'm over 150 miles away.

Welcome to Ronhjones' Talk page

on English Wikipedia


Hi there! To keep the flow of conversations, I like to keep threads on one page where possible. So, if you post a message here, I'll probably respond to it here. Conversely, if I post a message on your talk page, you can respond there if you wish; since I've edited your talk page I'll have it on my watchlist. Thanks!

If you wish to contact me privately you can email me

Leave me a message | Send me an email.
Note: To any interested parties. This is my only account, there are a few minor edits under my static IP address 87.127.178.158 and my work IP address (but that is shared) 193.113.135.87

Deep breath...

... 'cos it's a lil' more than 48 hours to go. I am optimistic for your chances, and I wish for you that, to quote Tolkien, "what should be, shall be." With good humor, Jusdafax 22:52, 24 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for that. It does seem to have opened up a few can of worms... c'ést la vie.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 23:12, 24 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You are now an admin

I've closed your RFA as successful, as you know, and I would encourage you to keep the concerns of the opposition in your RFA as points of personal improvement for yourself, and to remain cautious when working in these areas for the moment. Show 'em you can be trusted! If you'd like to test your tools out, you can head to new admin school. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to let me or another admin know. Cheers, bibliomaniac15 00:20, 27 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Your RfA

Congrats! The thing that should not be 23:45, 26 November 2009 (UTC) [reply]

Congratulations as well! ConCompS (Talk to me) 00:01, 27 November 2009 (UTC) [reply]

Thank you for your comments, and I thank all those that commented on the RfA (including the opposes and neutrals - everyone is entitled to their own opinion). It did open up some interesting discussions on edit counts and AfD / BLP policy. For those who might worry that I will stop vandal fighting, don't panic - I will still be there helping out. As I said on the page, the tools will be used very carefully at first - I want to observe and understand the actions of others. I suspect this will be quite a learning curve for me.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 00:11, 27 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well done! Crafty (talk) 00:23, 27 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Congratulations! I never thought this would ever come when you had 33 percent support, but you really beat the odds and have become an administrator. Good luck! Kevin Rutherford (talk) 00:32, 27 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Congrats Ron! It's a great day for you and Wikipedia... Good Fortunes, always! Jusdafax 00:44, 27 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Congratulations. As you noted, don't feel compelled to quickly jump into anything. Make the easy blocks at AIV and watch the fruity cases to see how they play out. Please feel absolutely free to ask any questions! Kuru talk 03:02, 27 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Congrats

With all those automated edits, I'm surprised you weren't sent over to WP:BAG for approval *joke*. Congratulations, and don't break the Wiki! davidwr/(talk)/(contribs)/(e-mail) 00:48, 27 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Congratulations mate! Jeffrey Mall (talk • contribs) - 00:53, 27 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Nicely done, and congratulations. - Dank (push to talk) 01:06, 27 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Congratulations from one of your opposers. All the best! - Ret.Prof (talk) 01:11, 27 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Congrats on the mop. I've encountered you from time to time on AIV and seen your positive contributions. Look forward to seeing good things from you. Calmer Waters 04:14, 27 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Congratulations! I stumbled on your RfA at the last minute and glad I had a chance to weigh in. --JohnnyB256 (talk) 15:31, 27 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

A little late, but congrats. I'm glad to see you passed, and I'm sure you'll make good use of the tools. Robofish (talk) 17:28, 27 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Congratulations, Ronhjones. I'm glad the automated edits didn't hold you back. ~YellowFives 18:30, 27 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

congratulations, Ron! A8UDI 01:12, 29 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Dynamic IP. Nothing to do with me. Goodbye. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.5.190.56 (talk) 14:16, 29 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The joys of using a dynamic IP, one picks up all the warnings for someone else. Please consider creating an account, it won't cost anything, you won't get someone else's messages, and in some ways it is more private (editors cannot tell where in the world you live - unless you decide to say).  Ronhjones  (Talk) 15:10, 29 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Eyes

I'm not as busy as usual, so any reply might take a little longer - I've an eye infection, and can't focus too long on the screen  Ronhjones  (Talk) 00:18, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The Wikipedia Signpost: 30 November 2009

There's more

Take a look at Category:Years of the 19th century in India, a whole bunch of pages should be deleted because the same reason as 2009 in Afghanistan, lack of context. Qajar (talk) 05:49, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The Wikipedia Signpost: 7 December 2009

alpha gamma nu

thanks for changing it to underconstruction, as well i saw you added a comment about that page that it was founded in 1953, but that was actually the date that the current "headquarters" or fraternity house was built. again thanks and i appreciate your input. Kevin Merchant (talk) 00:08, 10 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. The date came from a quick google search which gave me http://www.unl.edu/agn/ as the first hit.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 00:15, 10 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Talkpage contributions

WHOIS will show the location of the ISP . I will check that out in future, It might have been a coincidence but at the time it seemed to be worth mentioning, thanks. Off2riorob (talk) 23:44, 10 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
