Hi
Hi Jaranda,
Just thought I'd see how you were doing, I saw you had been promoted to admin, congratulations! I would've voted, but I didn't realise you were nominated! At the same time, I'm sorry to read on your userpage that your surgery wasn't fully successful. How dedicated, taking pictures of your injuries for the relevant Wikipedia articles! I hope you begin to recover soon. Thanks again for your help at WP:V0.5. Regards, Walkerma 06:47, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
RE: I6
Got it, my mistake. Ytny 07:36, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
Question
You do realize that a majority of the people fighting to keep the ED article are either those that have been gone a long time and just now returned to vote keep...new editors with only a few edits...other editors with less than 50 edits, or even major contributors to that website, four of which have either stated publically that they are sysops there or have the exact same usernames here as sysops there. IN other words, who is really edit warring when myself and hipocrite ahve been trying to make sure the article complies with policy? You lost me, since it has nothing to do with a content dispute and everything to do with maintaining policy.--MONGO 07:58, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
List of vegetarians on deletion review
An editor has asked for a deletion review of List of vegetarians. Since you closed the deletion discussion for (or speedy-deleted) this article, your reasons on how or why you did so will be greatly appreciated in the above review. --Deathphoenix ʕ 12:17, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
Hi, the Urban dictionary is out. Other improvements have also been made. Kindly re-evaluate. :NikoSilver: 16:04, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
Re:Images
Wait...so I'm not supposed to upload those images?? I only started uploading those images because I saw other people had done it for other players and nothing had happened.
Please reply soon!
Thanks,
--Nishkid64 20:56, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
Well, I did check for many of the guys if there were free images, and there weren't any, so I went along and uploaded valid fair use rationale images. (I appropriately tagged them as promotional) Can you just look over a few pictures, and see if I'm doing it correctly. I don't want to find out later that all my images will be deleted because of something I didn't comprehend or I missed.
--Nishkid64 21:05, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
What the hell were you thinking?
I'm sorry, but you don't just delete an entire article just to stop "insulting edit summaries". Did the idea of simply semi or full protecting it not cross your mind? Restore it. Now.--KrossTalk 04:15, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
- Nevermind, you its back.--KrossTalk 04:16, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
I saw you note to Essjay and your deletion log. I bet that was fun ;). NoSeptember 04:46, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

Tupac Shakur
The vandalism has went on for a long time today, I think you should put it on to prevent it rather then later. There are a lot of people that read the page, and what the vandals are saying is very offensive License2Kill 03:59, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
Can you...
Take a look at this. --Shane (talk/contrib) 07:23, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
Mega Society Deletion
I have a question and a request.
1) Is there an explanation available of your reasoning for the delete judgement? I would like to learn more about the reasons before deciding what to do next.
2) I would like to take a private copy of the article for the purposes of possible expansion (it had been growing over the last few days prior to deletion and much usueful information has been lost).
Thank you, --Michael C. Price talk 07:42, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
Thank you for the article copy. I have two concerns about the AfD verdict.
First, the deletion reasons seemed to resolve down to notability, yet the article had considerable media exposure going back 20 years -- more so than many other articles here. Okay, I realise that an appeal should stick to procedural issues, but I just had to get that off my chest.
Second, the result was judged as a vote, yet the guidelines say an AfD is a discussion, not a vote. I (and many others I suspect) debated under the impression that their arguments would be carefully weighed and balanced -- yet I find my contributions would have been as effective as if I'd just submitted a one-line vote. I can appreciate that the AfD was long and tedious to wade through and that it seems to be customary for admins to judge by a vote -- but this is clearly contrary to procedure, outlined in the opening statement of the AfD:
- please note that this is not a vote, but rather a discussion.
--Michael C. Price talk 08:43, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
Hi Jaranda, I have been looking at the deletions guidelines and I see that:
- deletion is not a strict "count of votes", but rather a judgement based upon experience and taking into account the policy-related points made by those contributing. - Wikipedia:Deletion policy
- To the extent that voting occurs (see meta:Polls are evil), the votes are merely a means to gauge the degree of consensus reached so far. Wikipedia is not a democracy and majority voting is not the determining factor in whether a nomination succeeds or not. - Wikipedia:Guide to deletion#Discussion
- Another volunteer (the "closing admin") will review the article, carefully read the AFD discussion, weigh all the facts, evidence and arguments presented and determine if consensus was reached on the fate of the article. -- Wikipedia:Guide_to_deletion#Closure
There was no consensus here, in which case the default is keep
- An AFD decision is either to "keep" or "delete" the article. AFD discussions which fail to reach rough consensus default to "keep".
On the basis that procedure has been violated I shall be taking this to review, but I would like to hear your views first. And I urge you to reconsider your decision as well.... --Michael C. Price talk 12:24, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
- I replyied via email a few days ago I discounted any anons and new user votes which there was and it was an close call AFD but I agreed with Northenglish more, it was an very long AFD as well so I didn't read all the agreements of it I agreed I used votes and read the few keep and delete votes I could find. Jaranda wat's sup 19:52, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
- I'm not sure I entirely follow what you mean, but have raised a deletion review request here, where you can see my concerns about deletion practice in general, as well as in this case. In brief the whole voting business is contrary to policy, although it seems to be "usual practice". --Michael C. Price talk 20:23, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
Hi Jaranda, I've added the following comment to the DRV:
- NOTE for closing reviewer: since the AfD was closed the userfied version of the Mega Society has been further developed to satisfy the requirements for verifiable sources and provide evidence of notability. Also other high IQ societies (Prometheus Society, Triple Nine Society) and their founder, Ronald K. Hoeflin, have had AfDs withdrawn against them as their articles were similarly developed. --Michael C. Price talk 22:19, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
And Avi has changed his recommendation:
After contemplation, my opinion would be to conditionally overturn, if, and only if, better sources besides Omni could be brought as proof of notability, and a bit more about how the society interacts with other socities or peer-reviewed High-IQ research could be brought. If that cannot happen the article should be remain deleted. -- Avi 02:52, 26 July 2006 (UTC)- Replace with userfied version Mega Society -- Avi 22:25, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
In view of this, would you please consider updating your vote from endorse to userfy? --Michael C. Price talk 08:02, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
Mandy Moore
Question... what I am supposed to do with "Mandy Moore" now? It got a single vote, which was an object - the objecter said they were objecting because Wikipedia has too many entertainment FAs. So obviously, that vote doesn't count it. I didn't get any other votes either way. So - it neither failed nor succeeded. Mad Jack 23:01, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
- If unsure, surely the default is keep? --Michael C. Price talk 08:26, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
User:Misza13's pile!
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!

Your GA nomination
Please make sure to provide a helpful edit summary (per the instructions and big red box) when editing the nominations list in future. This will help us keep the Good Articles wikiproject running more efficiently. Thanks. -- Run! 10:11, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
Did Brett Butler really steal a base off on a throw back to the mound? Great additions to the article! (and hope you're enjoying adminship!) Cheers -- Samir धर्म 18:50, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

How do you tell what is the proper copyright for each image uploaded? --Happyman22 00:35, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
Electric Six good article nomination
Hi -- thanks for commenting on the nomination of Electric Six. I have a question for you regarding the fair use rationale you requested before promoting the article -- posted at Talk:Electric Six. Thanks! Dylan 02:05, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
Hello, I noticed you reverted my edit on the Esperanza/Alerts
Hello, I noticed you reverted my edit on the Esperanza/Alerts page. I deleted the edit mase by an anon User, who is supsect of using anon IP throughout the city of Ottawa. There is a RfAR going on right now over this matter. I just wanted you to know, that these suspect anon IPs who made the Arthur Ellis statement, also harassed Francs2000 in his final Wiki days. And User:Arthur Ellis has not left Wiki at all. Pete Peters 04:15, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
Reverted edit on 9/11 page?
I'm wondering why my edit was reverted on the "9/11 attacks" page...All I did was add a link to the Loose Change video under the "Conspiracy Theories" section. What was wrong with that?

The original picture right now is really gloomy.. you don't like the one I put up ? It's from the same source :(

Thanks for fixing my revert on Missing Wikipedians
Not sure why I was looking at an outdated history, but inexplicably reverted prior to the recent one. Thanks for noticing and correcting that. --LeflymanTalk 04:20, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
I see that you've recently blocked User:Anne Boleyn, who died a long time ago. Please note that the username policy only applies to living or recently deceased famous people. For example, User:General Eisenhower is a good contributor here. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 02:12, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
You were interested in a large-scope article on Scouting for the V0.5 project. We've gotten it to A-class now (plan on FA, but that may be awhile) and I've listed it on the noms page. Also, for the FA part of the project, what are your views on the FA History of merit badges (Boy Scouts of America)? I wrote it and don't want to review it myself. thanks,Rlevse 13:14, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

Hello,
Could you close Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Gustavo's Class since you closed the speedy? Thanks, --EngineerScotty 00:09, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
Thanks from Yanksox!
Hey, Jaranda, thanks for supporting my RfA, which registered a tally of 104/4/7. Which means...

Your ID.
Just curious. Was your ID Aranda56? Right now, your ID is Jaranda, so is Aranda56 your former ID? *~Daniel~* ☎ 06:54, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
My former account name was Aranda56 yes Jaranda wat's sup 06:55, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
Adminship nom
You asked if you could nominate me for adminship. I suppose so; I've been sort of reluctant when asked in the past, as I'm always unsure of how much time I'm going to devote to Wikipedia, and I'm also leery of the headaches it might lead to. But I guess the positives will outweigh the negatives (I hope). And thanks for the consideration. MisfitToys 00:16, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
Judith Sheindlin
Thanks for this edit. I have been cleaning up the article over the last few days, and I couldn't remember how to group the references. Thanks again! Iolakana|T 11:06, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
Congrats
Congrats on blocking 3 of my accounts. By the way, that "secure.wikimedia.org..." thing does work in showing my real IP, but it sucks in that it's 10x slower, do you know why? I was going to ask Jimbo Wales about it, but ... it was TOO SLOW! 64.12.116.8 01:21, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
I hope you don't mind

Hi, Jaranda. It's been almost two weeks since you nominated Dawson's Creek for review. Can you let us know your thoughts on its progress? Thanks, Sandy 02:24, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
Unblocked uillermito en Ruedas alternate acct
It seems uillermito en Ruedas has dumped his old accout for User:Whiskey Tango, who sent an unblock request for his autoblock. He said he was only joking when he made the other acct, so out of AGF, I've unblocked Whiskey Tango. You may want to keep an eye out on him though. --LBMixPro<Speak|on|it!> 09:49, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

PLease leave alone. IT has a valid scource. There is no external link. I have listed the magazine and page number--TheTruth2 19:36, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
You need the exact issue and page number, something you didn't do, as for me I'll stop reverting as I'm in the edge of WP:3RR and I don't want to be blocked Jaranda wat's sup 19:40, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
