Please refrain from removing content from Wikipedia, as you did to List of ethnic slurs. It is considered vandalism. If you want to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. --Primetime 19:29, 6 May 2006 (UTC)Reply
Oops, I'd say Primetime missed the fact that you split the article in two - you didn't remove anything altogether. That's debatable but well-intentioned, not vandalism. Art LaPella 19:57, 6 May 2006 (UTC)Reply
I agree. Nevermind about the warning, then. Splitting it in two is a no-starter for me, though. Mr. Smith, if you'd like to do so, perhaps you could raise it on the talk page so you can see what other people think. I think that, although the loading time is a bit longer, it makes it easier to reference terms if they're all on one page.--Primetime 20:04, 6 May 2006 (UTC)Reply
The Administrator Coaching program is a program aimed at preparing Wikipedians for Adminship or helping them understand the intricacies of Wikipedia better. Recently, changes have been made to the requirements of coachees. Please review them before requesting this service.
This would be something like the Welcoming Committee, but for people who have figured out the basics of editing articles; they're not newcomers any more, but they might want some help in learning new roles. Some might like suggestions about how to learn vandal patrol, or mentoring on taking an article to featured status, or guidance with a proposal they plan to make at the Village Pump, for example. In this way, Esperanza would help keep hope alive for Wikipedia because we would always be grooming the next generation of admins.
The Stressbusters are a subset of Esperanza aiming to investigate the causes of stress. New eyes on the situation are always welcome!
Note from the editor
As always, MiszaBot handled this delivery. Thank you! Also, congratulations go to Pschemp, Titoxd and Freakofnurture for being elected in the last elections! An Esperanzial May to all of the readership!

I've nominated the article Jamie Kane tie-in websites for deletion under the Articles for deletion process. We appreciate your contributions, but in this particular case I do not feel that Jamie Kane tie-in websites satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion. I have explained why in the nomination space (see What Wikipedia is not and Deletion policy). Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jamie Kane tie-in websites. Don't forget to add four tildes (˜˜˜˜) at the end of each of your comments to sign them. You are free to edit the content of Jamie Kane tie-in websites during the discussion, but please do not remove the "Articles for Deletion" template (the box at the top). Doing so will not end the discussion. The JPStalk to me 14:52, 10 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

As you may have gathered, discussions have been raging for about a week on the Esperanza talk page as to the future direction of Esperanza. Some of these are still ongoing and warrant more input (such as the idea to scrap the members list altogether). However, some decisions have been made and the charter has hence been amended. See what happened. Basically, the whole leadership has had a reshuffle, so please review the new, improved charter.
As a result, we are electing 4 people this month. They will replace JoanneB and Pschemp and form a new tranche A, serving until December. Elections will begin on 2006-07-02 and last until 2006-07-09. If you wish to run for a Council position, add your name to the list before 2006-07-02. For more details, see Wikipedia:Esperanza/June 2006 elections.

The Esperanza To-Do List is a place where you may list any request, big or small, for assistance. If you need help with archiving your usertalk, for example, all you need to do is list it here and somebody will help you out. Likewise, if you need help with some area of editing on Wikipedia, list it here! Again, any matter, trivial or not, can be placed on this page. However, all matters listed on this page must not be of an argumentative nature. You do not need to be a member of Esperanza (or this program) to place or fulfill requests on this page. If you don't have any requests, consider coming by and fulfilling a few! This program has not been very active, but has lots of potential!
What's New?
In order to help proposed programs become specific enough to make into full-fledged programs, the In development section of the proposals page has been created. Proposals that are promising, but need to be organized in more detail are listed here. Please take a look at what is there, and help the proposals turn into programs.
To improve both the layout and text of the front page, in an attempt to clarify the image of Esperanza, the front page is going to have some redesigning take place. Please take your creative minds to Wikipedia:Esperanza/Front page redesign to brainstorm good ideas.
Many thanks to MiszaBot, courtesy of Misza13, for delivering the newsletter.
In order to make sure all users who join Esperanza are welcomed, a list of volunteers who are willing to welcome new Esperanzians is at Wikipedia:Esperanza/Members#Esperanza_welcomers. Please add yourself if you are interested; we want to make sure all new Esperanza members are welcomed!
The In development section of the proposals page has been created.
Proposals page: Some proposals have been moved to the aforementioned "In development" section, some have been left as a proposal, and others have been archived. For those proposals that were a good idea but didn't necessarily constitute a program, General Esperanzial Actions has been created.
Two small pieces of charter reform will be decided on in a straw poll at Wikipedia talk:Esperanza/Governance. One involves filling the position of any councillors who may leave, the other involves reforming the charter.
Until cooperation with the Kindness Campaign is better defined, it remains as a proposed program.
Although having the newsletter appear on everyone's userpage is desired, this may not be ideal for everyone. If, in the future, you wish to receive a link to the newsletter, rather than the newsletter itself, you may add yourself to Wikipedia:Esperanza/Newsletter/Opt Out List.

As it's been a while since you signed up for admin coaching, I am just checking that you still wish to receive it. If so just add you name to the "Unassigned" section of the coaching box, and you'll be assigned a couple of coaches as soon as they become available. Let me know (on my talk page) if you have any questions. Cheers, Petros471 10:54, 17 August 2006 (UTC)Reply
Your coaches are Titoxd and Jacoplane. Exactly what form the admin coaching takes is up to you and the coaches to decide, but a general piece of advice I give is to set up a user subpage (for example User:Quentin Smith/Admin coaching) to keep coaching discussion together. That prevents things getting split up over three talk pages, which can get confusing! Let me know (on my talk page) if you have any questions. Cheers, Petros471 17:04, 17 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

Here in Wikipedia there are hundreds of wikipedians whose work and efforts go unappreciated. One occasionally comes across editors who have thousands of good edits, but because they may not get around as much as others, their contributions and hard work often go unnoticed. As Esperanzians we can help to make people feel appreciated, be it by some kind words or the awarding of a Barnstar. This is where the Barnstar Brigade comes in. The object of this program is to seek out the people which deserve a Barnstar, and help them feel appreciated. With your help, we can recognize more dedicated editors!

September elections are upon us! Anyone wishing to be a part of the Advisory Council may list themselves as a candidate from 18 September until 24 September, with the voting taking place from 25 September to 30 September. Those who wish to help with the election staff should also list themselves!

Stop changing all these template images immediately. —Centrx→talk • 07:10, 23 September 2006 (UTC)Reply
What is your reason for making a mass change of template images to use the stereotypical vote images? Some of them are utterly nonsensical; others are merely a bad idea. Please explain. Also, you should never revert without explanation. —Centrx→talk • 07:11, 23 September 2006 (UTC)Reply
I am rolling back these edits. Some of them are patently ridiculous, like putting the same check mark image on {{guideline}} as on {{rejected}}, and the rest still need to be discussed first. Do not return to making these changes—the matter must be discussed and agreed first—or you may have to be temporarily blocked from editing. —Centrx→talk • 07:22, 23 September 2006 (UTC)Reply
I agree with Centrx. At best, you should be discussing these image replacements before performing them en masse. As Centrx noted, some of them made absolutely no sense. You replaced several long-standing icons with generic "vote" symbols that are broken for most users (because of the IE6 transparency bug).
Your lack of edit summaries also is inappropriate, and your decision to revert another user's edit with no summary and the "minor" box checked is not indicative of good faith on your part. —David Levy 07:41, 23 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Well i suppose i am saying hello so Hello.
Anyway just to say, certain parts of the London Overground are still in the planning stages - basically
Surrey Canal Road to Clapham Junction
New Cross Gate to either Crystal Palace or West Croydon
Dalston Junction to Highbury & Islington
North London Line
West London Line
Watford DC Line
South London Lines (eventually and part of Orbirail)
Some of these routes are not going to come to fruition in 2009, at least i don't think. Also, the Silvelink Metro services are to be replaced, not run alongside the LO.
I have quite clearly marked the things "under construction". I was not intending to remove the Silverlink Metro continuation boxes until after Silverlink Metro stopped running. As for the WikiProject, I would like to join, yes- thanks for asking. --QuentinSmith 11:08, 30 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

Admin Coaching needs coaches!!! If you are an administrator, or even a generally experienced user, do consider signing up to be a coach.
Admin Coaching, now being coordinated by HighwayCello, is a program for people who want help learning some of the more subtle aspects of Wikipedia policy and culture. People are matched with experienced users who are willing to offer coaching. The program is designed for people who have figured out the basics of editing articles; they're not newcomers any more, but they might want some help in learning new roles. In this way, Esperanza would help keep hope alive for Wikipedia because we would always be grooming the next generation of admins.
What's New?
The Tutorial Drive is a new Esperanza program! In an effort to make complicated processes on Wikipedia easier for everyone, Esperanza working to create and compile a list of tutorials about processes here on Wikipedia. Consider writing one!
A discussion on how Esperanza relates to the encyclopedia has been started; please add your thoughts.
Many thanks to MiszaBot, courtesy of Misza13, for delivering the newsletter.
The list of proposed programs has been updated, with some proposals being archived.
There is now a new program: the Tutorial Drive! Consider writing a tutorial on something you are good at doing on Wikipedia.
The suggestion of adding a cohesive look to all the Esperanza pages is being considered; join the discussion if you are interested!
In order to make a useful interlanguage welcome template, those involved in translation projects will be asked what English Wikipedia policies are most important and confusing to editors coming from other language Wikipedias.
Shreshth91 informed everyone that he will be leaving the Esperanza council as life is rather busy; his spot will be filled by the runner up from the last election, HighwayCello.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.
P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 00:52, 11 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

Just thought I would let you know I just closed this as delete, and deleted the article. If you would like access to the content that was on the page at the time of deletion, so that you may use it on the main article, I can release the content to you. Ian¹³/t 17:32, 18 June 2006 (UTC)Reply
Thanks. The content is already on Jamie Kane and I will edit from there, that was never a useful article. When I get screenshots and the section is big enough it might get split off again. --QuentinSmith 09:08, 19 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

Thanks; I've seen it already. If I have time I'll write something. --QuentinSmith 07:26, 21 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

As you may have gathered, discussions have been raging for about a week on the Esperanza talk page as to the future direction of Esperanza. Some of these are still ongoing and warrant more input (such as the idea to scrap the members list altogether). However, some decisions have been made and the charter has hence been amended. See what happened. Basically, the whole leadership has had a reshuffle, so please review the new, improved charter.
As a result, we are electing 4 people this month. They will replace JoanneB and Pschemp and form a new tranche A, serving until December. Elections will begin on 2006-07-02 and last until 2006-07-09. If you wish to run for a Council position, add your name to the list before 2006-07-02. For more details, see Wikipedia:Esperanza/June 2006 elections.

Hi - sorry, you've beaten my superficial knowledge of Guiting Power with your questions. - Ballista 03:52, 3 July 2006 (UTC)Reply
Hi again - I'm being very dense here, as I have a lot on my plate at present. I'm not at all sure what you're asking me and, no, I've not checked any of the links as time has been so short, lately.

The Esperanza To-Do List is a place where you may list any request, big or small, for assistance. If you need help with archiving your usertalk, for example, all you need to do is list it here and somebody will help you out. Likewise, if you need help with some area of editing on Wikipedia, list it here! Again, any matter, trivial or not, can be placed on this page. However, all matters listed on this page must not be of an argumentative nature. You do not need to be a member of Esperanza (or this program) to place or fulfill requests on this page. If you don't have any requests, consider coming by and fulfilling a few! This program has not been very active, but has lots of potential!
What's New?
In order to help proposed programs become specific enough to make into full-fledged programs, the In development section of the proposals page has been created. Proposals that are promising, but need to be organized in more detail are listed here. Please take a look at what is there, and help the proposals turn into programs.
To improve both the layout and text of the front page, in an attempt to clarify the image of Esperanza, the front page is going to have some redesigning take place. Please take your creative minds to Wikipedia:Esperanza/Front page redesign to brainstorm good ideas.
Many thanks to MiszaBot, courtesy of Misza13, for delivering the newsletter.
In order to make sure all users who join Esperanza are welcomed, a list of volunteers who are willing to welcome new Esperanzians is at Wikipedia:Esperanza/Members#Esperanza_welcomers. Please add yourself if you are interested; we want to make sure all new Esperanza members are welcomed!
The In development section of the proposals page has been created.
Proposals page: Some proposals have been moved to the aforementioned "In development" section, some have been left as a proposal, and others have been archived. For those proposals that were a good idea but didn't necessarily constitute a program, General Esperanzial Actions has been created.
Two small pieces of charter reform will be decided on in a straw poll at Wikipedia talk:Esperanza/Governance. One involves filling the position of any councillors who may leave, the other involves reforming the charter.
Until cooperation with the Kindness Campaign is better defined, it remains as a proposed program.
Although having the newsletter appear on everyone's userpage is desired, this may not be ideal for everyone. If, in the future, you wish to receive a link to the newsletter, rather than the newsletter itself, you may add yourself to Wikipedia:Esperanza/Newsletter/Opt Out List.

As it's been a while since you signed up for admin coaching, I am just checking that you still wish to receive it. If so just add you name to the "Unassigned" section of the coaching box, and you'll be assigned a couple of coaches as soon as they become available. Let me know (on my talk page) if you have any questions. Cheers, Petros471 10:54, 17 August 2006 (UTC)Reply
Your coaches are Titoxd and Jacoplane. Exactly what form the admin coaching takes is up to you and the coaches to decide, but a general piece of advice I give is to set up a user subpage (for example User:Quentin Smith/Admin coaching) to keep coaching discussion together. That prevents things getting split up over three talk pages, which can get confusing! Let me know (on my talk page) if you have any questions. Cheers, Petros471 17:04, 17 August 2006 (UTC)Reply
Feel free to poke me at my talk page whenever you wish to start, all right? :)Titoxd(?!?) 03:46, 18 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

Here in Wikipedia there are hundreds of wikipedians whose work and efforts go unappreciated. One occasionally comes across editors who have thousands of good edits, but because they may not get around as much as others, their contributions and hard work often go unnoticed. As Esperanzians we can help to make people feel appreciated, be it by some kind words or the awarding of a Barnstar. This is where the Barnstar Brigade comes in. The object of this program is to seek out the people which deserve a Barnstar, and help them feel appreciated. With your help, we can recognize more dedicated editors!
What's New?
September elections are upon us! Anyone wishing to be a part of the Advisory Council may list themselves as a candidate from 18 September until 24 September, with the voting taking place from 25 September to 30 September. Those who wish to help with the election staff should also list themselves!
Appreciation Week, a program currently in development, now has its own subpage! Share your good ideas on how to make it awesome there!
The Esperanza front page has been redesigned! Many thanks to all who worked hard on it.

The September 2006 Council elections will open for nominations on 18 September 2006. The voting will run from 25 September 2006 until 30 September 2006. If you wish to be a candidate or a member of the elections staff, please list yourself!
The new Esperanza front page design has but put up - many thanks to all who worked on it!
TangoTango has written a script for a bot that will list new members of Esperanza, which will help those who welcome new Esperanzains greatly!

Stop changing all these template images immediately. —Centrx→talk • 07:10, 23 September 2006 (UTC)Reply
What is your reason for making a mass change of template images to use the stereotypical vote images? Some of them are utterly nonsensical; others are merely a bad idea. Please explain. Also, you should never revert without explanation. —Centrx→talk • 07:11, 23 September 2006 (UTC)Reply
I am rolling back these edits. Some of them are patently ridiculous, like putting the same check mark image on {{guideline}} as on {{rejected}}, and the rest still need to be discussed first. Do not return to making these changes—the matter must be discussed and agreed first—or you may have to be temporarily blocked from editing. —Centrx→talk • 07:22, 23 September 2006 (UTC)Reply
I agree with Centrx. At best, you should be discussing these image replacements before performing them en masse. As Centrx noted, some of them made absolutely no sense. You replaced several long-standing icons with generic "vote" symbols that are broken for most users (because of the IE6 transparency bug).
Your lack of edit summaries also is inappropriate, and your decision to revert another user's edit with no summary and the "minor" box checked is not indicative of good faith on your part. —David Levy 07:41, 23 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Well i suppose i am saying hello so Hello.
Anyway just to say, certain parts of the London Overground are still in the planning stages - basically
Surrey Canal Road to Clapham Junction
New Cross Gate to either Crystal Palace or West Croydon
Dalston Junction to Highbury & Islington
North London Line
West London Line
Watford DC Line
South London Lines (eventually and part of Orbirail)
Some of these routes are not going to come to fruition in 2009, at least i don't think. Also, the Silvelink Metro services are to be replaced, not run alongside the LO.
I have quite clearly marked the things "under construction". I was not intending to remove the Silverlink Metro continuation boxes until after Silverlink Metro stopped running. As for the WikiProject, I would like to join, yes- thanks for asking. --QuentinSmith 11:08, 30 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hi Quentin Smith nice meeting you. I am User:mist_n_legend. I had contributed some articles to our great site including S.K. Pottakat which it seems you have merged with S.K. Pottekkatt. While appreciating it i am disheartened to find that while retaining verbatim the article which i had contributed my user name is no longer found in the history portion of the article which i have endeavored to create. I am sure you can do something about it. Thanking you in anticipation. _ ````User:mist_n_legend

Admin Coaching needs coaches!!! If you are an administrator, or even a generally experienced user, do consider signing up to be a coach.
Admin Coaching, now being coordinated by HighwayCello, is a program for people who want help learning some of the more subtle aspects of Wikipedia policy and culture. People are matched with experienced users who are willing to offer coaching. The program is designed for people who have figured out the basics of editing articles; they're not newcomers any more, but they might want some help in learning new roles. In this way, Esperanza would help keep hope alive for Wikipedia because we would always be grooming the next generation of admins.
What's New?
The Tutorial Drive is a new Esperanza program! In an effort to make complicated processes on Wikipedia easier for everyone, Esperanza working to create and compile a list of tutorials about processes here on Wikipedia. Consider writing one!
A discussion on how Esperanza relates to the encyclopedia has been started; please add your thoughts.
Many thanks to MiszaBot, courtesy of Misza13, for delivering the newsletter.
The list of proposed programs has been updated, with some proposals being archived.
There is now a new program: the Tutorial Drive! Consider writing a tutorial on something you are good at doing on Wikipedia.
The suggestion of adding a cohesive look to all the Esperanza pages is being considered; join the discussion if you are interested!
In order to make a useful interlanguage welcome template, those involved in translation projects will be asked what English Wikipedia policies are most important and confusing to editors coming from other language Wikipedias.
Shreshth91 informed everyone that he will be leaving the Esperanza council as life is rather busy; his spot will be filled by the runner up from the last election, HighwayCello.
