Striking comments
Note here[1]. You probably shouldn't be striking out other people's comments. ~ UBeR (talk) 21:59, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
- I thought it was standard procedure. You live and learn.Gazimoff WriteRead 22:13, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
- Apparently they have forbidden {{done}} now as well. Instead, inserting something like Done before the comments would be ok. User:Krator (t c) 17:18, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
"point-by-point" on Talk:Criticism of WoW
I think you could've handled the discussion on Talk:Criticism of World of Warcraft#Why paragraph 1 of the Gold Selling Spamming section should be removed - point by point better, so, here's three questions:
- The anonymous commenter is right on two accounts. Which ones?
- What part of your reply would be better to leave out, or place somewhere else?
- What part of his initial post did you leave unanswered, but shouldn't have?
I'll follow up on this. User:Krator (t c) 17:27, 3 May 2008 (UTC) PS: It wasn't bad. I'm just trying to learn you some of the 'pedia mediation tricks I've learned over the past year.
- Not sure on these. Then again, I'm really thinking of backing off from the 'pedia. It seems that no matter how much you want to try and help make things better, there's a tendancy to always assume the worst in people. Perhaps it would have been better to mention the taskforce work elsewhere, but if the anon poster is intentionally making himself difficult to contact, there's not much I can do but post the information where I hope he'll read it. Hope that makes sense. Gazimoff WriteRead 00:34, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
- You're right about the 'assume the worst' part. The trick is how to deal with it, I think, which I'm trying to help you do. I'll write more in a bit. User:Krator (t c) 07:30, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

Ha, np. Yes I do. I have a notifier that tells me when something on my watchlist changes, so I saw it, and added it. I've taken the NAA and Deletions to a be a personal goal to keep as accurate and as up to date as possible. MrKIA11 (talk) 23:31, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

RFA thanks
Thanks for your support at my recent Request for adminship. I appreciate your recognition, as a fellow article builder (I’m not a snob, good video game articles are just as hard to write as any other kind). I hope you find I live up to your expectations. Best, Risker (talk) 13:40, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
- I'm sure you'll do fine. You seem to have a balanced attitude along with a good level of self-confidence in order to use the tools where needed. Best of luck!Gazimoff WriteRead 19:35, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

Hi, Gazimoff! It's me! User:Howdoyoudo08! I should have put this on your talk page, but I couldn't find it. Thanks for the information on the Tom and Jerry: War of the Whiskers (page)!

RfA: Many thanks | |
Many thanks for your participation in my recent request for adminship. I am impressed by the amount of thought that goes into people's contribution to the RfA process, and humbled that so many have chosen to trust me with this new responsibility. I step into this new role cautiously, but will do my very best to live up to your kind words and expectations, and to further the project of the encyclopedia. Again, thank you. --jbmurray (talk • contribs) 06:00, 18 May 2008 (UTC) |
Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.
P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot (talk) 17:21, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
Peer Review request
I noticed your name on the WP:PRV list for video games, as well as seeing your active work on video game GAN assessment. So could you please leave a peer review here? It would be immensely helpful. Thanks! --haha169 (talk) 04:57, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
- I'll look at getting on to it soon, although it'll probably be when I get back from a short break next Wednesday 28th May, if that's alright. Gazimoff WriteRead 09:31, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
Thanks...
for your support on my RFA. I will do my best to clean the place effectively, leaving as few dustballs as possible. Have a great break! --Slp1 (talk) 00:15, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks! Glad to see that it all worked out in the end. Best of luck! Gazimoff WriteRead 18:33, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
Request for Peer Review help
Thank you for you work as a peer review volunteer. Since March, there has been a concerted effort to make sure all peer review requests get some response. Requests that have gone three days or longer without a substantial response are listed at Wikipedia:Peer review/backlog. I have three requests to help this continue.
1) If you are asked to do a peer review, please ask the person who made the request to also do a review, preferably of a request that has not yet had feedback. This is fairly simple, but helps. For example when I review requests on the backlog list, I close with Hope this helps. If my comments are useful, please consider peer reviewing an article, especially one at Wikipedia:Peer review/backlog (which is how I found this article). Yours, ...
2) While there are several people who help with the backlog, lately I have been doing up to 3 or 4 peer reviews a day and can not keep this up much longer. We need help. Since there are now well over 100 names on the PR volunteers page, if each volunteer reviewed just one PR request without a response from the list each month, it would easily take care of the "no response" backlog. To help spread out the load, I suggest those willing pick a day of the month and do a review that day (for example, my first edit was on the 8th, so I could pick the 8th). Please pick a peer review request with no responses yet, if possible off the backlog list. If you want, leave a note on my talk page as to which day you picked and I will remind you each month.
3) I have made some proposals to add some limits to peer review requests at Wikipedia_talk:Peer_review#Proposed_limits. The idea is to prevent any one user from overly burdening the process. These seem fairly reasonable (one PR request per editor per day, only four total PR requests per editor at a time, PR requests with cleanup banners can be delisted (like GAN quick fail), and wait two weeks to relist a PR request after it is archived), but have gotten no feedback in one week. If you have any thoughts on these, please weigh in.
Thanks again for your help and in advance for any assistance with the backlog. Ruhrfisch ><>°° 21:21, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
