Reviewing WP:AFC

Hi, when reviewing AFC, please do not blank entry that's not "copyright violations, personal attacks, or patent nonsense". Also, please provide a quick reasoning as to your decision so that the submitter and other reviewers can see. Wikipedia:Articles for creation/Templates have a common list that you can use. Hope that helps. KTC 21:53, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

RfA

Hi, I would just like to kindly suggest that you withdraw your nomination for sysop. You are a newer editor, with a very limited array of experience at this time. If you are truly interested in becoming an administrator, please feel free to contact me on my talk page, or take a look at Wikipedia:Administrators. Hiberniantears 18:45, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

I'm sorry, but I've closed your Request for adminship prematurely. Simply put, you've only got 53 edits on Wikipedia; while edit count isn't the only determining factor, and numerous people have their own personal standards that they judge RfA candidates by, there was no chance that the RfA was going to pass.

I'm sorry about this, and hope you don't take it personally. If you continue to contribute to the project in a positive fashion, I'm confident that you could possibly run a successful RfA in the future. You may want to consider submitting yourself to Wikipedia:Editor review for feedback on where to get some good experience, and when you're ready for RfA again, there's a great Wikipedia:Admin coaching program for you to use, as well as a guide to requests for adminship.

If you have any other questions about becoming an administrator, please don't hesitate to ask me. Good luck! Chaser - T 19:37, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

Adoption

I saw your RfA get closed, and wondered whether you'd like me to adopt you. J-ſtan^Talk_Contribs 19:48, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

Sure, but I have to do FLVS, so I'm on the Internet a lot but most of it is school and not WP (which I love). In 2007, Wikipedia lay in ruins, and the words on the screen said: "Missingno. was here." 00:56, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

What's FLVS? And also, your signature is a bit long. Most people, in addition to their username (or links to their talk or contribs) usually just put something like "Cheers" at most. So anyway, just put {{adoptee|J-stan}} in your list of ubxn, and that will show I'm your adopter. J-ſtan^Talk_Contribs 01:10, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Florida Virtual School. In 2007, Wikipedia lay in ruins, and the words on the screen said: "Missingno. was here." 01:16, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Alright. So to make things easier, you should install WP:TW for now, and there is another tool you can get later. Follow these instructions. If you have questions, let me know. J-ſtan^Talk_Contribs 01:45, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Did that. MISSINGNO. was here. 01:50, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Good. How familiar are you with policies? If you aren't familiar, you should definitely familiarise yourself with them. Wikipedia is built by consensus, and policies and guidelines represent consensus.

Now that you have twinkle, go vandalism-hunting! There should be a box on the left side that says "Recent Changes". Click on it, and then click the link that says "Hide logged-in users". Then look for some edits of large size, click the "diff" tab, and use the rollback feature if necessary. If it is clear and obvious vandalism, use "Rollback (Vandalism)". If you are unsure, use "Rollback". If you see edits that look like the editor had good intentions, use "Rollback (AGF)". If you don't see these, check the history; someone might have beaten you to it. Also, make sure you are not in Internet explorer. Twinkle doesn't work in IE. J-ſtan^Talk_Contribs 02:05, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

I might have problems w/ it, since I use Opera. MISSINGNO. was here. 18:00, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, I think it only currently works in Firefox. If possible, you should get Firefox. It greatly helps the editing experience. If not, I can see if I can get AVT working for you. Besides adding the code to your js page, you need to add a few lines to get the rollback and warning tools. J-ſtan^Talk_Contribs 17:06, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

I used to use it, but my parents forced me to uninstall it because they think that anything downloaded from teh Interweb will put a million million EiB of viruses on the computer. MISSINGNO. was here. 23:34, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

(indent) LOL, Parents *scoff* :) Well, AVT can do pretty much everything twinkle can, but in addition to putting in the code at WP:AVT, you'll have to add this to your .js page:

importScript('User:Lupin/autoedit.js'); //[[User:Lupin/autoedit.js]]

That will give you the rollback and warning functions. Rollback is automatic, but it shows you the edit form just before it saves it. Warnings are semi-automatic, it puts the warning where it needs to go, but you have to save the page. I don't know if it adds the next level warning, or just a {{uw-vand1}}. Just make sure you have the "use non-admin rollback" option selected on the filters. J-ſtan^Talk_Contribs 01:55, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

"Makedonsko Devoiche"

In the Articles for deletion thread [1] for this article you voted to delete it because there were not enough sources to show the notability of the article. However now several very significant sources have been added to the article that show the notability of it. They are::

• BBC [[2]]
• Sheet Music [[3]]
• Evansville Folkdancers [[4]]
• Soros Foundation [[5]]
• Preformed by famous guitarist Martha Masters [[6]]
• US Government Website [[7]]

Please reconsider your decision to delete this song. Several editors have compared this song to epic historic songs. This is what one editor said "It's analogous to deleting Waltzing Matilda, I Still Call Australia Home and The Wild Colonial Boy which are songs well known by Anglophones."

Thank you Ireland101 23:00, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

CopyNight Orlando

Hi CJMiller! I see you're from Florida. If you're in the Orlando area, please check out this brief survey. I'm looking to start a meet-up of CopyNight, a monthly social discussion of copyright and related issues (like Wikipedia, Creative Commons, and open source). If that sounds neat, please answer this short survey to help with scheduling the event. Thanks! --Gavin Baker 05:29, 5 November 2007 (UTC)--Gavin Baker 10:52, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
