Wikipedia has a new administrator! edit

  Thanks, Archive October 07!
Thank you for voicing your opinion in my RfA, which passed today with a unanimous 79/0/0 tally. It feels great to be appreciated, and I will try my best to meet everyone's expectations. If you have any advice or tips, feel free to pass them along, as I am sure that I will need them! Cheers, hmwith talk 21:12, 1 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
 

On a personal note, thank you also for helping me a lot in the past. I appreciate it! =) hmwith talk 21:12, 1 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Sisa Koyamaibole edit

Hi, this article was deleted because it contained sentences and portions of sentences, including creative, expressive adjectives, that were copied from http://www.teivovo.com/pacific_rugby/Islanders/2004/profiles_2004/Sisa_Koyamaibole.html. That's not creating articles; it's copying other people's work, and it's not allowed. Also, I did not template you. Please be civil and do not post copyvios. Thank you. -- But|seriously|folks  05:06, 7 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

I just figured out what you were talking about and I believe you owe me an apology. You were templated, but not by me. If you had read the template, you would have seen that it was left by the bot that detected your copyvio. (The template says two times that it has been placed automatically.) In any event, your first response to receiving a template should not be to lash out at someone, like you did to me. It should be to examine your own conduct to see if you did anything to warrant it. -- But|seriously|folks  05:10, 7 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
Stop posting copyvios and they won't get deleted. You have been around here long enough to know that we are agressive about copyvios. And you didn't mean "deleted", you meant "template". You even linked to DTTR. You had no idea the template was put there by a bot. Look at your edit summary when you removed it from your talk page if you don't remember. If that was dumb, well those are your words, not mine. I can tell you this: Wikipedia needs a lot less "I've been around here too long for you to question me, noob" and a lot more "Sorry, I know I'm subject to the same rules as everybody else. I just goofed." -- But|seriously|folks  05:28, 7 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
I guess you're right -- I should have left you a {{uw-copyright}}! Apologies!  ;-) Seriously though, could you lay off the name-calling? It might make you feel better, but it's not very productive. -- But|seriously|folks  05:44, 7 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

My recent RfA edit

Thank you for supporting my RfA, which unfortunately didn't succeed. The majority of the opposes stated that I needed more experience in the main namespace and Wikipedia namespace, so that is what I will do. I will go for another RfA in two month's time and I hope you will be able to support me then as well. If you have any other comments for me or wish to be notified when I go for another RfA, please leave them on my talk page. If you wish to nominate me for my next RfA, please wait until it has been two months. Thanks again for participating in my RfA! -- Cobi(t|c|b|cn) 01:31, 12 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
