Your VandalProof Application

Dear Camw,

Thank you for applying for VandalProof! (VP). As you may know, VP is a very powerful program, and in fact the just released 1.3 version has even more power. Because of this we must uphold strict protocols before approving a new applicant. Regretfully, I have chosen to decline your application at this time. The reason for this is that you don't yet have the minimum of 250 mainspace edits. Please note it is nothing personal by any means, and we certainly welcome you to apply again soon. Thank you for your interest in VandalProof.

Sorry for forgetting to sign above! I do make exceptions for longtime members like yourself that have close to the minimum of 250 edits. However you have less than half of the minimum. Personally I had only about 200 mainspace edits when I became a VP moderator but I had more than 2000 edits total (mostly in the WP namespace) because I'm so heavily involved in "meta" work like [[WP:AfD], WP:RD, and WP:FC, so I often grant requests if users have a lot of WP namespace edits. Unfortunately that exception case doesn't apply to you either. You've also been inactive for the majority of the months that you've been a member. VP really is a powerful tool that could result in very destructive activity, so we try to restrict approval for people that obviously really know their way around wikipedia.. unfortunately I can't be confident enough about your application to make an exception. But this might not be the opinion of a different mod; you're more than welcome to ask someone else to make an exception for you. I'd be happy to approve you once you reach 250 --froth^{T C} 02:17, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Replied to both on your page, thanks for the consideration. Camw 02:32, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi Camw, I'd suggest you trying Lupin's Anti-vandal tool. Good luck.--Pethr 02:48, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Apologies to everyone for this notification being sent out so late, events in real life prevented me from distributing it at the time, and the Wine Project's had a bit of a lull during the Northern Hemsiphere summer. But as the nights draw in, activity should pick up again, and hopefully the next Newsletter will arrive a little more quickly....

The next few weeks are the perfect time to take photos of grapes in the Northern Hemisphere - get your cameras out! FlagSteward 16:00, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
