Apologies

I was sleeping when I wrote that. I totally missed the first post in which it was clearly explained that repeated blanking (without discussing) is considered vandalism. Personally, I prefer handwritten warnings, but you don't seem to have done anything wrong. Sorry again! - Mgm|(talk) 11:17, 13 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

RfA thanks from Deathphoenix

Hi Kefalonia,

I just wanted to thank you for supporting me in my RfA. To tell you the truth, I was surprised by all the support I've gotten. I never saw myself as more than an occasional Wiki-hobbyist.

My wife sends her curses, as Wikipedia will likely suck up more of my time. She jokingly (I think) said she was tempted to log on to Wikipedia just to vote Oppose and let everyone know that she didn't want her husband to be an admin.

I'll make sure your trust in me is founded. --Deathphoenix 15:22, 28 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your RFA support

Hi Kefalonia! I have been on a refreshing wikibreak for the last week, so this is a belated thank-you for supporting my adminship nomination. You've seen enough of these before, so, simply: Happy new year (if that's your kind of thing)! jnothman talk 18:13, 31 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Greetings, Kefalonia! I wanted to sincerely thank you for voting in my RfA, which passed with a final result of 55/14/3. While you voted oppose (and I still don't know the reason for it – would be appreciated if you could tell me), I still hope you'll be content with the way I use my newly granted WikiPowers. If you have any questions or input regarding my activities, be they adminly or just a "normal" user's, or if you just want to chat about anything at all, feel free to drop me a line. Cheers! —Nightstallion (?) 07:56, 4 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

Thank you for your support of my RfA, and for your generous comments. I appreciate your confidence. Best wishes for a happy new year, Tom Harrison Talk 13:46, 4 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Kefalonia, just want to say thanks for your support of my RfA! Now that I'm an admin, if there is anything I can do to help you out, please let me know. Incidentally, since SIIEG is now gone, if now or down the road you have any articles you'd like me to check out or watchlist, along the lines of Muhammad bin-Qasim or Islamic conquest of South Asia, please feel free just to drop a note on my talkpage. I won't be using admin privileges on Islam-related articles, but I'll help out however I can. Thanks again! Babajobu 15:58, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

Pgk's RFA

Thanks for your support on my request for adminship.

The final outcome was (80/3/0), so I am now an administrator. I was flattered by the level of support and the comments, so I'm under real pressure not to disappoint, thus if you have any queries, suggestions or problems with any of my actions as an admin then please leave me a note --pgk(talk) 11:41, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My RFA - query

You've voted oppose on my RFA - of course you are welcome to. Nonetheless I'll try to persuade you that you're mistaken. You did it with "as per Frank". Since Frank said In my observations of, and experiences with, William M. Connolley, he showed himself the exact opposite of what is described in his nomination. I have observed him, and/or interacted with him, in connection with several entries in non-mainstream science - a category of endeavour that he has a strong bias against. He has treated with contempt and extreme rudeness any contributor who did not share his bias., and as far as I know I've never encountered you, I'm confused.

If you've checked the aetherometry debate, you'll have found it very polarised: so I hope you haven't taken F's comments as though they were accurate. For the record, I dispute all of them. You'll notice that he provides no diffs in his support: I offer you [2], [3], [4], [5] etc as evidence of insults on FZ's side.

May I ask, what examples of "extreme rudeness" you have encountered from me?
