All is for the best, in this, the best of all possible worlds

One of the advantages of not having many supporters at your RFA is that there are fewer people to thank at the end. Thanks for your support and your willingness to look at my complete record. I'm going to try to interpret this resounding defeat as a statement that I should choose my words more carefully in the future, and remember that every statement I make gets recorded forever, just waiting to get carefully transcribed onto my next RFA. I would go insane if I believed that it was repudiation of what I truly meant: that no editor should consciously and willfully ignore guidelines and policies, and editors that repeatedly do so should not be rewarded for or supported in doing so.

I'm sure I'll get back to full speed editing soon, because, after all, every day, and in every way, I am getting better and better.—Kww(talk) 05:51, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I like your attitude ;-) and I'd support you again, too. — Athaenara ✉ 15:40, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

RfA thanks

Hello Athaenara. Thank you very much for your support in my recent Request for Adminship, which was successful with 111 supports, 0 opposes, and 0 neutral. I have to say I am more than a little overwhelmed by this result and I greatly appreciate your trust in me. I will do my best to use the tools wisely. Thanks again. Regards.

Copyvios and socks

→ In re: Ongoing project spearheaded by DoriSmith and Uncia. [ Athaenara ✉ 07:14, 24 September 2008 (UTC) ][reply]

More PolTX stuff

I know that you're also following along with the saga, so I figured you'd like to know (if you don't already), that Uncia has filed another ANI notice (WP:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#More copyvio by User:LamyQ) and a suspected sockpuppet report (WP:Suspected sock puppets/PoliticianTexas (2nd)). Any help you can give would be appreciated! Dori (Talk • Contribs) 05:07, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I added those links (diff) to the WT:RFCHU section. With so many anonIPs listed in the sockpuppet categories, I would think anonIP range blocks would help. — Athaenara ✉ 14:30, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

LamyQ was blocked as a sockpuppet (yay!). The action has now moved over to WP:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#More_copyvio_by_User:LamyQ, where there's now a discussion about a community ban and a range block. Please feel free to add your opinions! Dori (Talk • Contribs) 04:06, 6 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

9 to 0 for a ban so far. — Athaenara ✉ 17:00, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Zachri29

I've tagged several images today from Zachri29 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), and you handled one. Based on the talk page history, I dropped a final warning on his page. Since you can see his deleted history, too, can you take a peek and comment as to whether I was justified?—Kww(talk) 23:27, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It's certainly justified, and if he continues to upload copyvios after so many warnings the account should be blocked. — Athaenara ✉ 23:35, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'll go move my warning, then, to make sure it doesn't get lost among the bot notices.—Kww(talk) 23:40, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wow, that is unlikely to get lost! — Athaenara ✉ 14:14, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Schapendoes

Hi, I was writing a Schapendoes article but now see that there was already one that you deleted, so I don't know whether I should continue or if it will be deleted again. Maybe you could look? Not sure how this works.--Hafwyn (talk) 06:35, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The previous version showed up in Category:Candidates for speedy deletion after it was tagged {{db-g12}} as a blatant copyright infringement of www.schapendoes.ca/description.html. Your current version doesn't resemble it in the slightest. It isn't a copyvio, is it? — Athaenara ✉ 15:30, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Nope --thanks for responding!-- Hafwyn (talk) 21:30, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Richard Marx

Resolved. See User talk:Candy156sweet#Photo. — Athaenara ✉ 23:33, 16 October 2008 (UTC) (log)[reply]

Question

Maybe you can help me. There is an image of Richard Marx that he finds to be inappropriate for posting on Wikipedia. Is it possible to find a way to remove the photograph? It was posted by Itsmyright, but Richard really would like it removed. How would I go about removing the image if the editor decides not to comply? Thank you in advance for your help. --Candy156sweet (talk) 15:13, 16 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Two different versions of Image:Richard Marx.jpg were uploaded, one by Itsmyright two weeks ago and one by Cyndeg this week. Image:Richardmarx2008.jpg is identical to the recent one. No idea about your question myself, really. BLP/N may be the best forum for it. — Athaenara ✉ 18:00, 16 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Here is the version Richard would like removed. That is the image that Itsmyright uploaded. The grainy image on the lower part of the page is the one in question. --Candy156sweet (talk) 19:09, 16 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you Itsmyright (talk) 23:45, 16 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You are welcome. — Athaenara ✉ 00:00, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for all of your help in this matter. Have a lovely rest of your week. :) --Candy156sweet (talk) 00:29, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

3O on Heart

This is a follow up of sorts. There has been no 30 response yet however the user is now making multiple posts to my user page (Eight in the last 12 hours) despite me asking them not to and to use the Heart (band) talk page where I have repeatedly answered this users questions and even made a very clear post (re)citing all my refs. (Talk:Heart (band)#Facts with Citations from the main page concerning Disputed/Questioned items) Their last post(s), made within the last hour, (User talk:Soundvisions1#Hello?) implies they will again revert edits I have made and if I change/revert/complain about said reverts they will have an admin block me for vandalism. (If you will not answer, then you have no right to complain about what I do. If you do complain, I will class it as vandalism, and behave accordingly.) You can, if you have not already, start the reading from their first post on my talk page, User talk:Soundvisions1#Vandalism Warning #1 and go from there.

I see no "how to" for Baiting (trolling) and how to report it, and as of right now this is how I see what the user is doing. Per Wikipedia descriptions what the user is doing not Vandalism. It falls short of the 3R. I did send a plain request to the Arbcom-l list last night however this was before this mornings posts. If you could either look this over and act on it or send it to someone who could act on it today it would be appreciated. Soundvisions1 (talk) 13:55, 6 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

See User talk:Moonriddengirl#Soundvisions1 for Moonriddengirl's advice ("state your opinions succinctly on the talk page of the article" and "stick with the essentials about the debate" etc.) to Pdfpdf about this (I hope he follows it and stops deluging your talk page with messages). — Athaenara ✉ 14:41, 6 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, I did not know the user had made that post on Moonriddengirl's talk page. I did already "state your opinions succinctly on the talk page of the article". That was what kicked all of this off. So in this case I will await the Arbcom-1 response for now because it is better than giving in to the users Baiting (trolling). Thanks Soundvisions1 (talk) 14:53, 6 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Right, Moonriddengirl's advice was to Pdfpdf. — Athaenara ✉ 15:07, 6 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Athaenara,

You recently deleted a page I submitted on behalf of the the Public Relations Consultants Association and I would be interested to know why.

There are pages on Wikipedia for similar organisation such as the Chartered Institute of Public Relations [1]

Your help would be much appreciated.

If you read the deletion log linked above, you will see that I deleted and then restored the article, which was subsequently deleted again by another administrator.

Middlesex Lodge

Hello, I am hoping that you might be able to help me I had published this article about Middlesex lodge feeling that it is 1. interesting and 2. of historical significance. I have had no less than three moderators tell me that the article was a conflict of interest, copyright infringement and blatant advertising. I have read and re-read the policies and I honestly can't see how any of these apply. This is my first article on wikipedia and I really just want to add a useful contribution.Middlesexlodge (talk) 04:15, 18 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
