RfA

Hey, Joe! I was just wondering if you could modify your co-nom on my RfA since the current one sounds like a supporting opinion. If it along those lines, you can place it on the opinions listing since this application should be out by tonight. Yanksox 23:24, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

Hmm

Well, I may have been more firm than normal, but I think that at times it is absolutely worth pointing out that poor behavior reflects badly on the individuals involved and that they should, in fact, feel shame as a result.--Jimbo Wales 02:00, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

{{nn-bio}}

Yeah, I was beginning to wonder if anyone ever listens to me. Most people aren't responding to my arguments there, nor at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Cleveland steamer (4th nomination). I don't mind being wrong, but at least engage me, ya know?  :) Mangojuice^talk 02:47, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

Catamorphism's RfA

I noticed that you mentioned in your neutral vote that you wanted to "make sure your concerns were seen". As the final decision coming is fairly close, would you consider re-evaluating the discussion/candidate and picking one side or the other? No pressure, I just wondered if your original reason for voting Neutral still held five days later. -- nae'blis _(talk) 13:40, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

My RfA

Thank you so much for voting in my recent RFA. It passed on the relatively narrow vote of 38/8/8. It was also one of the least-participated-in RFA nominations in several months, so pat yourself on the back, and join the party on your left, but first, take your cookie!

Hey

How's the treatment? You back in the gym? - CrazyRussian talk/email 04:53, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

my RfA

Thanks for your support in my RfA! Unfortunately, the request did not pass, with a vote of (43/16/7). But your support was appreciated and I'll just keep right on doing what I do. Maybe I'll see ya around -- I'll be here!
Cheers! - CheNuevara 17:36, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

Help:Contents

Well it has already been reverted and I agree with this decision. Chuck's refusal to discuss his edits (or recognise there is a bit more to this website than "anyone can edit") is disappointing. Quiddity has an excellent suggestion given the continual reappearance of the Browsebar on Help:Contents. -- Gareth Aus 08:51, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

thanks for comprise->compose

Thanks for changing the "comprise" to "compose" on my Books subpage. I'm rather surprised that you had stumbled on the page in the first page, as I hadn't looked at it for a few months.

BTW, on your main user page, you say that you, "support capital punishment only for those who substitue (sic)comprise for compose". You may want to fix that. --Tachikoma 20:51, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks from Yanksox!

Hey, Joe, thanks for supporting my RfA, which registered a tally of 104/4/7. Which means... I am now an admin!!! I was and still am very flattered by all the kind comments that I recieved, I will also take into account the comments about how I could improve. I guarantee I will try my best to further assist Wikipedia with the mop. Feel free to drop in and say hi or if you need anything. Again, thank you so much! Yanksox 04:05, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

Baseball Portal/News Section

You're brash edits to the news section of the baseball portal, to the work I've added, are rather insulting. I wish you would read Wikipedia's section of Editing, and be more courteous in your efforts.

There is no style, only your writing type for the News section, and I do not think Wikipedia or most editors would reckgonize it's validity. Please show me where your style is official, and I will gladly relent.

--Wxthewx99 05:02, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

I've read your comments on my talk page. I've read your comments on the Portal talk:Baseball/News, and I still disagree with your revision. I do not see how my post was not encyclopedic in the form it was posted after the series of edits I performed on it. I urge you to be (in simplest terms) more diplomatic in the future, and since I plan on spending more time on Portal:Baseball andPortal:Baseball/News, I would like to have healthy collabrative atmosphere around the editing of the portal. I still wish you to be entirely more specific on why you believe my posts to be so entirely unencyclopedic that the entire works need to be revised. I've revised other pages on Wikipedia before, and I've never had my work called "unencyclopediac". That is why it is rather troubling you felt to revise the entirety of my work. Since I'm sure this "issue" will constantly arise if not compromised, I ask that you point out in the work where I've posted. Or direct me to a more specific guide page where it shows my writing to be unencyclopediac to the point that is needed to be completley reworked.

Do not misunderstand me. I see your dedicated input to the Baseball portal. It is well appreciated after the complete disarray the project was in. I also understand you are the person listed who maintains the baseball portal. If I could see some kind of documentation on how a maintainer is different from an administrator, that would also be helpful. I'm not discouraged, however, and I hope to help the Baseball portal advance and improve from where it's at now. Response is requested. "-) --Wxthewx99 06:00, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

Wickethewok's RFA

Thanks for your support on my RFA. The final vote count was (61/9/3), so I am now an administrator. Thank you especially for your support regarding the consesus issue. Feel free to let me know how I'm doing at any point in time or if you need anything. Once again, thank you. Wickethewok 16:25, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

reply

Don't forget about the sixers, who could quite be the worst of those sad, sad "teams". Hmm... the only head injury I have suffered would be the constant head-to-wall contact following Eagles playoff losses. What? Where am I? Ah yes, RfAs. So anyway, to be blunt, I think this guy is a bot (basically). His edits don't really show any intellectual rigor of any sort, and I haven't seen any policy debates or discussions, or anything of the sort. It's just my feeling that if we should allow admins the full tray of admin tools, they should be familiar with every aspect of policy, rather than having some sort of system of specialists. As for my own adminship, I would love to be one, but I have only been editing heavily since early May (moderate experience and readership from other IPs before that), and I'd rather easily clear the bar of acceptance, rather than climb over it. I mean, I myself am a major proponent of time with the project as an RfA standard, and I would look a bit hypocritical if I applied at the moment. but perhaps in, say, 2 months, I would definetly give it a go, and your support certainly would be appreciated. By the way the Phillies lost 15-2 and traded away their best player yesterday. Maybe I do have a head injury? AdamBiswanger1 03:25, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

My RfA and your vote

Hi Joe, Thanks for participating in my RFA! Ultimately, no consensus was reached, but I still appreciate the fact that you showed up to add in your two cents. In the end, the criticism gained enough weight to unsuccessfully close the RFA. You can feel free to talk to me about it or add some advice on my improvement page. Sincerely, The ikiroid (talk·desk·Advise me)

Advocacy request

Heyo, Steve Caruso here. There is a Request for assistance by Joehazelton (talk) on Peter Roskam. Would you be willing to take their case? If you will, please leave a note and sign under the entry on WP:AMARQ and change "(pending)" in the heading to "(open)." When you're finished with the case, set it to "(closed)". If you're not able to take the case, please leave me a message on my talk page so I can continue searching for a willing Advocate. Many thanks! (This one seems like a simple POV dispute.) אמר Steve Caruso _(desk/AMA) 02:32, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

I'd certainly be able to help, but I'm not certain that Joehazelton would think me an appropriate advocate, inasmuch as my userpage contains a (succinct and barely visible) profession to the effect that, even as I'm an anarcholibertarian, I support categorically the Democratic Party of the United States; to the extent that the problems at the Roskam article have devolved from simple content dispute, they seem to be connected to the avowed political views of the contributors. Should Joehazelton nevertheless be comfortable with me—to be sure, as in any other on-WP undertaking, I've no problem elevating encyclopedic neutrality over personal sentiment—I'd be altogether willing to help; shall I write him to query him apropos of this? :) Joe 02:53, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for your honesty, Joe. :-) 'Might as well discuss this with him to he is comfortable or not, and I have every confidence that you'll handle the situation wonderfully. :-) אמר Steve Caruso _(desk/AMA) 12:16, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

My RfA

Thankyou for your participation in my RfA. Due to an almost even spread of votes between Oppose and Support (Final (16/13/6)) I have decided to withdraw for now and re-apply in a couple of months as suggested. I thank everyone for their kind support of my editorial skills; it meant a lot to me to get such strong recommendations from my fellow editors. If you ever have any hints as to how I can improve further, I would love to hear from you. Viridae^Talk 15:24, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

Cycling Icon Discussion

Joe, regarding your recent move of the cycling icon discussion, all I have to say is, thanks for taking care of something I should have done first, but didn't - mostly for the sake of convenience and laziness. So, thanks. --Mindfrieze 19:25, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

JoeHazleton

Thank you very much in showing interest, the only concern is that you are in the employ of a paid Democratic media agent.

With you good faith answer of no, I will find good hearted and honest efforts most acceptable.

My goal is to get the nasty and unfair stuff off and leave a reasonable article that may be read by an average person and that average person would think it did not have a spin or the smell of "Bork"

Now, my knowledge of the Wikipedia is somewhat limited but I don't like getting, IMHO getting yanked around by some sharp shooting Wikilawyers, with agendas and some mumbo jumbo.

Any rate, I just want some one with out an ax to grind to help me make sure a borking don't happen. I live in Wheaton Illinois so I would say I'm some what partisan, but I try be fair and willing to listen to reasonable argument.

I don't want my guy to get a raw shake on Wikipdia from some Chicago Machine Democratic goon squad, expert in sleaze and dirty tricks...( See Kennedy election 1960)

A little story- my mom was a poll judge in one of the precincts in Chicago (11th ward) and she told me she witness first hand the boys setting the voting machines the "right way" was told to look the other way or else... this a true story from that 1960 election) And Chicago is backing Tammy Duckworth to the hilt so I, as very concerned citizen from the Illinois 6th living in Wheaton, and I don't want my guy to get a high class flame job.

Bad, but true, stuff on the page is acceptable, if it's really true and relevant and in proportion to what is "Fair Weighted". I would like to see an overall fair biography of the man.

It should be noted editors that are active and aggressive on Roskam page are also very active on the Tammy Duckworth page. Read how they treat her vers his and tell me what you think.

Also, I feel its a conflict for them to be editing both, considering the contenous nature of this up comming election for the Illinois 6th seat.

Now, I hope you have a great deal more experience with wikipedia then I do and you don't have a political ax to grind as a wild eye, hate all Republicans kind of person, I will be very happy with your help

Thanks again for your time and interest in this.--Joehazelton 00:41, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

For fun I took that political test and scored Economic Left/Right: -0.13 Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -1.59 I guess I'm a conservante with leanings to a moderate libertarian. --Joehazelton 01:54, 4 August 2006 (UTC) --Joehazelton 04:35, 4 August 2006 (UTC) Just to make clear, I would gladly accept you help if you are willing..

Thanks again.... take your time... It appears things are some what more strait and narrow now. They must of caught wind that I was going though the process and are more "reasable" with their edits.

and rate, thanks and let me know what you think.
