This is Riana's 23rd talk page archive, dated 30-May-07 to 16-Jun-07. Please don't leave comments here; try this instead! BLP protection Mind if I reduce it to 48hrs? There are new sections, so it's reasonable people will be going back-and-forth on things. Marskell 13:50, 30 May 2007 (UTC) Check Could you check my response to the edits at Tibetan Buddhism? I'd appreciate it if you could - thanks SatuSuro 08:00, 31 May 2007 (UTC) Hi Hi Ms. Meatpuppet. How goes? >:D — Nearly Headless Nick {C} 08:37, 31 May 2007 (UTC) Star! For being an exceptionally kind and lovable person, I award this Angel Heart Barnstar to you. Thanks for all the kindness you've shared along the way, Riana. Cheers, PeaceNT 11:32, 31 May 2007 (UTC) Unblock Cheers Meateater 12:39, 31 May 2007 (UTC) JB196 Back again. Based on his non-stop socking, it might be an idea to watch those pages assuming you haven't already naturally. Thanks. One Night In Hackney303 13:21, 31 May 2007 (UTC) Well, he's not my favourite editor and is disruptive and doesn't understand the policy about attributing sources, but he's not a JB196 sockpuppet. One Night In Hackney303 14:03, 31 May 2007 (UTC) Here you go, your majesty :) – Steel 22:33, 31 May 2007 (UTC) ooooh - niiiice - Alison ☺ 22:40, 31 May 2007 (UTC) Female influence, you see. – Steel 22:43, 31 May 2007 (UTC) Works every time. You need an 'a' after your name, Steela (Stella?) :) - Alison ☺ 23:00, 31 May 2007 (UTC) Hopefully not this Stella :) Will (We're flying the flag all over the world) 02:56, 1 June 2007 (UTC) That was the greatest show of our time, and those monsters gave it the Axe! Why? Take me instead! Dfrg.msc 06:49, 1 June 2007 (UTC) Of course it works perfectly. – Steel 14:28, 1 June 2007 (UTC) Editor with more vandal edits than warnings There's another editor vandalizing Skyline High School (Oakland, California) this evening. He hasn't vandalized past 'final warning' yet, but the history definitely shows more vandal edits that he wasn't warned about. I've asked for the page to be semi-protected for a week due to all the vandalism. Should I wait for the editor to vandalize again before reporting? DarkAudit 06:36, 1 June 2007 (UTC) Yes, please. Often it's just kids messing around on a bored evening, and we should give them the benefit of the doubt. Riana ⁂ 06:38, 1 June 2007 (UTC) I'll take your word for it. I'll check back in the morning to see if anything is warranted. DarkAudit 06:41, 1 June 2007 (UTC) This has become more complicated. It's now up to a stack of as many as seven different editors making the exact same vandal edit to the article. I've opened a checkuser on the lot. They're already blocked for their vandalism, but the evidence would suggest that there's a sockpuppeteer at work. I don't believe I would be out of line at this point to report any user who would come in making the identical vandal edit, given this preponderance of evidence that the user is not acting in good faith. DarkAudit 02:23, 3 June 2007 (UTC) Tarragon! You! Well, you were true to your word Riana. I've just asked Hussy (Husond), but I'll ask you too. Is a an RfA what marriage is like? Fine for about 10 votes or so, and after that, it's just questions and judgment! Where have you been? Explain that edit! Where did that stain come from? Thanks for your support (hopefully I'll convince them that "Tarragon" is worth 20 Supports)! Mega-Cheers, Dfrg.msc 07:57, 1 June 2007 (UTC) Coaching Hello Riana :) I noticed you were editing regularly again and I was just wondering if you're still interested in admin coaching me, I got started of with User:Michaelas10 on the coaching page so I wa just wodering if you were still interested and if yes if you wouldn't mind leaving a few questions. Hope your internets sorted (and if I'm being anoying just ignore me! ). Thanks --The Sunshine Man 12:22, 1 June 2007 (UTC) Really, its fine! I was unsure whether to leave a message because I thought you might of thought I was being a pest, anyway thanks for being so kind about it! I'll get the study books out now.... The Sunshine Man 12:31, 1 June 2007 (UTC) I really dont mean to sound as if I'm nagging but its been about an hour and a half....Sorry for being annoying! The Sunshine Man 13:52, 1 June 2007 (UTC) I'll have a look in a minute, thank you! (I'll write the answers on the coaching page if thats OK with you). The Sunshine Man 13:57, 1 June 2007 (UTC) All done, .The Sunshine Man 14:15, 1 June 2007 (UTC) Michaelas10 sent me an email saying you had agreed that I wasn't ready for adminship just yet (which is fine!!), he also said that you both were going to monitor my contributions over the next few months which too is fine, so I'd just like to stop by and say thanks for what you've done so far — its really helped. I also think I should tell you that I edited as Tellyaddict between October 2006 and early May 2007 but changed to this account to get a fresh start in early May just so I'm not totally a newbie, I have got quite a lot of experience here. Anyway, thanks again and happy editing! Kindest Regards The Sunshine Man 19:56, 2 June 2007 (UTC) OK, thanks! I dont really do much vandalism reverting now (even though when I first edited as Tellyaddict I did); anyway however I still monitor the recent changes sometimes and report to AIV if necessary, I'm thinking of waiting for RfA until Christmas time, then that would give me loads of time to make improvements. Regards --The Sunshine Man 13:49, 3 June 2007 (UTC) An extremely confused (but still funny) question Why have you been blocking yourself? :P—  $PЯINGrαgђ  13:45, 1 June 2007 (UTC) zOMG! Admin abuse. — Nearly Headless Nick {C} 14:21, 1 June 2007 (UTC) I'm going to start test blocking Mimsy next. Riana ⁂ 14:26, 1 June 2007 (UTC) Thanks, but no thanks. I'd like to keep it's virginity intact. >:D — Nearly Headless Nick {C} 14:54, 1 June 2007 (UTC) Ooo! Ooo! Me! Me! :P —  $PЯINGrαgђ  14:27, 1 June 2007 (UTC) RfC Just wanted to let you know that I opened an RfC on myself in response to the concerns raised during my RfA over my actions in the Gary Weiss dispute. The RfC is located here and I welcome any comments or questions you may have. CLA 05:06, 2 June 2007 (UTC) Re:Discussion on Wikipedia:Administrator's noticeboard about your actions Hi, well I am sorry you have been grossly misinformed, it is not *my actions* it is the others, I try to promote niceness with my talk page headers and etc, but so far not many nice Wikipediaa editors I do not know where to go on here because some is coming from admins, I am trying to talk about it with Rockpocket to figure a way to get this resolved, because I do not think it is right Wikipedia be a place for accusations, hate or prejudice of any kind, and it for being so big! So I think it is extraordinary insane for there to be a board about my actions. There seems to be a double stranded policy on Wikipeida, I really hope that will change, thank you!--Migospia †♥ 08:29, 3 June 2007 (UTC) erm, I find it ironic that you came to my talkpage accusing me of making ATTACKS to other editors who are trying to improve the encyclopedia. Please you can not be serious by that statement, please? I am a bit confused. I admit when I got blocked I was greatly confused and angry because it had no right to happen and then after so, someone who actually should have gotten blocked got away because they were fiends with the admin; but since then I believe I have been amazingly calm with all the accusations and treatment being thrown at me--Migospia †♥ 08:36, 3 June 2007 (UTC) Accusing someone of being racist, when they are trying to help, is an attack. Riana ⁂ 08:37, 3 June 2007 (UTC) Again I did not accusing someone of being racist, I never called you a rascit!!! Never. And who was trying to help me that I apparently called a racist?--Migospia †♥ 08:43, 3 June 2007 (UTC) Image:Velouria.ogg Sure :) Now I know for next time. Thanks! (I'll remove the drv) CloudNine 12:11, 3 June 2007 (UTC) Cool. I definitely support the mass removal of rationale-less fair use media (it's about time such a thing happened). CloudNine 12:15, 3 June 2007 (UTC) Gathering - deletion I do not know whether this deletion was proposed for a time, I have been away for a week and have not had a chance to comment. Would you please restore this page? It is neither a POV essay advocating Panocracy, nor a very overlong dictionary definition. It is a description of a practical approach to decision making that is in use. If you think that the article needs improving, please suggest how. John Talbut 18:01, 3 June 2007 (UTC) image protection Re: protection on image page Image:Space- Above and Beyond - Chig (2).jpg, the anon was blocked for harassing User:Matthew, just to let you know. -- Ned Scott 22:51, 3 June 2007 (UTC) Thanks He's annoying, but thankfully cleaning up after him is at least fairly easy, since he's so predictable. SirFozzie 03:38, 4 June 2007 (UTC) 24.87.43.69 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log), also, you may want to keep an eye on his latest CU request [1], he's now vandalizing there. Thanks :) SirFozzie 03:46, 4 June 2007 (UTC) Vandalism on my User Page In regards to the vandal who vandalism my user page, 210.1.193.45, I've used WHOIS to report him to the ISP for breaching the ToS of the conditions of user. Thank you and the other users for saving my page. I guess this makes vandalism count up to 9. -- Warfreak 09:55, 4 June 2007 (UTC) BILL STITT Have noticed you have taken the liberty of deleted my page on Bill Stitt. Why? This individual is something of a folk hero and of considerably more relevance than some of the nonsense that appears on Wikipedia. Yes, the five days expired but it's not as if I'm on wikipedia every day checking my entries. --Evil Stu I did not 'take the liberty' - it was deleted under the proposed deletion process. You are free to recreate the article. However, it will most likely be deleted again. By and large, bloggers are not considered notable. Cheers, Riana ⁂ 15:46, 4 June 2007 (UTC) YechielMan's RFA Thank you for participating in either of my unsuccessful requests for adminship. Although the experience was frustrating, it showed me some mistakes I was making, and I hope to learn from those mistakes. Please take a few minutes to read User:YechielMan/Other stuff/RFA review and advise me how to proceed. Best regards. YechielMan 21:57, 4 June 2007 (UTC) about a dispute Hi, you probably don't know me. I am the one who asks for a protection on the VT massacre and you granted it for 2 days. Since you are an admin, I have some questions about wikipedia rules. I am recently in a dispute with another user User:Ksy92003 about whether or not I should update the score of a NBA basketball game before it is officially end. He claims that my edits have violated WP:NOT#PUBLISHER and threaten to block me for that violation. Whether or not I break the rule, I am not going to discuss that. My point is that he, in association with an admin User:Wizardman, are probably thinking that I should be blocked for violation. My position is that I have not violate any rule. Even if I did, all I did is trying to contribute and should be protected by WP:IAR. If I got blocked for this, I fear that I may not be able to continue improve wikipedia. Could you give me some of your experience or inputs on what I should do. I am trying to use WP:3O to help settle this dispute. Thanks Chris 22:54, 4 June 2007 (UTC) Sorry to brother you. This issue is now temporarily resolved. Chris 00:03, 5 June 2007 (UTC) Thanks File:Blnguyen banana.JPG Hello Riana and thanks for your good wishes in the last fortnight. As you know, I don't eat birthday cake, but you may indeed have a banana! Hope all is well with you! All the best with the exams that I presume will be coming up! Blnguyen (bananabucket) 02:19, 5 June 2007 (UTC) Requesting temporary removal of access Need a break, exams + backlogs = head asplode. Riana ⁂ 12:14, 5 June 2007 (UTC) I hope you'll be re-applying through RfA when you want the tools back due to the extremely controversial circumstances that your leaving in! :-p :-p Ryan Postlethwaite 12:29, 5 June 2007 (UTC) Good luck on your exams, Riana. May the Force be with you. Sean William @ 12:41, 5 June 2007 (UTC) Thanks Sean :) Riana ⁂ 12:43, 5 June 2007 (UTC) All the best for your xams! :) --soum (0_o) 14:28, 5 June 2007 (UTC) Thanks Soum :) I'd gotten so used to seeing 'delete' and 'protect' at the top of each page! OK, now, let me put this somewhere I can remember it... Riana ✶ 23:41, 5 June 2007 (UTC) Rusty201 Thanks for posting that nice note. —Moondyne 13:16, 5 June 2007 (UTC) My RfA ... Hi. Thanks for supporting my request for adminship. It was successful and I am now an admin. If I can ever be of help, please let me know. Best of luck on your exams, Black Falcon (Talk) 06:44, 6 June 2007 (UTC) A question I don't think a user can vote twice the user matthew has left a comment on oppose and support so..I don't know which 1 he wants could you help me?Arnon Chaffin (Talk) 19:40, 6 June 2007 (UTC) Thank you-Arnon Chaffin (Talk) 19:48, 6 June 2007 (UTC) 1 more isn't Phaedriel the nom? She say she was co-nom is this true or Swat jester is nom? or it was a mistake?Arnon Chaffin (Talk) 19:51, 6 June 2007 (UTC) Alright Sorry to keep you up so late, Good Night and thanks once again.Arnon Chaffin (Talk) 19:55, 6 June 2007 (UTC) Hi Riana A funny thing that I just discovered out on Wikipedia. Someone put a icon that looks like this :) on my talk page and I removed it thinking it was a mistake by the editor. But I had no idea it was suppose to be a happy face. Or a smile. I have to tilt my head 90 degrees to see that happy face. Am I right? King Lopez Contribs 09:06, 7 June 2007 (UTC) Yes, Einstein. *chortle* — Nearly Headless Nick {C} 12:37, 7 June 2007 (UTC) Be nice. Wikidan829 15:05, 7 June 2007 (UTC) OK, mom. — Nearly Headless Nick {C} 09:41, 9 June 2007 (UTC) Not everyone is a super interwebz user like you, Mims. ;) Riana ⁂ 15:06, 7 June 2007 (UTC) Yeah, but that's why he's hot! :P Will (talk) 17:00, 8 June 2007 (UTC) Riana Banana! Hey! How are you? I haven't seen you around Google Talk these days, and I assume you're being a busy bee studying for your exams. Just thought I'd drop by, k? G'luck! Will (talk) 23:43, 7 June 2007 (UTC) Riana is a banana now? :-P — Deckiller 19:54, 14 June 2007 (UTC) Somehow dzasta sounds better… Quick question: is "Dzasta" your last name or a word play on "disaster"? — Deckiller 04:43, 15 June 2007 (UTC) Smile! Here's Cat's Eye Nebula for you! Cat's Eye Nebulæ somehow promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better. Spread the WikiLove by giving something friendly to someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Make your own message to spread WikiLove to others! Happy editing! Húsönd 01:57, 8 June 2007 (UTC) Rfa Just dropping by to say "thank you" for supporting me in my recent my RfA. I passed the vote, and am now an admin. It will take me some getting used to with the new tools, but I thank you again for the trust. Have a good one, and, as always, happy editing! Jmlk17 05:12, 8 June 2007 (UTC) Hah yeah...already indeed. I figure I will see much more vandalism and assorted issues on my talk page now that I got the tools :). Thanks again for the support though :). Jmlk17 07:22, 8 June 2007 (UTC) My RfA That's me... Dear Riana, thanks for your support in my recent RfA, it was, however, unsuccessful. I am not the type of editor to be disheartened by such a result, and have gained much experience. If you have anything to contribute by way of improvements or comments, please don’t hesitate to tell me. It would have worked had "Tarragon" = 20 Supports. I will run again. Until then, Cheers, Dfrg.msc 07:47, 8 June 2007 (UTC) Cheers Riana, why does your little picture keep changing? It's not that I don't' like it, I just want to know. Love, Dfrg.msc 08:36, 8 June 2007 (UTC) Whoops Did you birthday already pass? ;) If so, happy birthday! --Endo(Exo) 17:29, 8 June 2007 (UTC) Thanks Thanks for reverting that odd Barnstar thing. Very weird. At least I'm in good company. =) -- Gogo Dodo 18:21, 8 June 2007 (UTC) My RFA Hello, Riana/Archive 23, and thank you so much for your support in my recent RFA, which passed 59/0/0! I promise I won't erupt all over this nice Wikipedia, and I will try very hard to live up to your expectations. Please let me know if I can help you in any way, but first take your cookie! Thanks again – good luck on your exams!

Heyhey First off, thanks a bunch for the reverts on my user page...seems that vandal wasn't too pleased with me :). Secondly, I am almost positive you are/were an admin; how am I wrong?

Is a shame to see it vandalised :) -- Longhair\talk 10:25, 10 June 2007 (UTC) My RfA :) Thank you for commenting on my RfA, which closed successfully with a tally of 76/0/1! I hope I will meet your expectations, and be sure I will continue trying to be a good editor as well as a good administrator :) If I may be of any assistance to you in the future (or if you see me commit some grievous error :), please drop me a line on my Talk page. Again, thank you, and happy editing! Fvasconcellos (t·c) 17:54, 10 June 2007 (UTC) Thanks—I might take you up on that :) Hmm, that's a very useful link you provided. Can you hear my knuckles cracking? ;) Fvasconcellos (t·c) 18:07, 10 June 2007 (UTC) Indeed. And quick, too! However, does it work to revert multiple revisions? I never thought so. Fvasconcellos (t·c) 18:11, 10 June 2007 (UTC) STOP! HAIKU (well, senryū) TIME Dearest Riana, I blush at your support vote. Now, get those tools back! Some kudos or props? Or a scathing reprimand? Leave it here. I'll act. Fvasconcellos (t·c) 17:54, 10 June 2007 (UTC) Happy Birthday! It's likely it is not your birthday, but you told me your birthday was in June, so I just dropped by to say it :). --SWEETCARMEN♥ 23:36, 11 June 2007 (UTC) happy birthday… I'll be back in ten days… -whistleing- —  $PЯINGrαgђ  23:41, 11 June 2007 (UTC) Heh, yes, still some time to go... not even thinking about it yet, honestly... too much exam worry :) Riana ⁂ 23:43, 11 June 2007 (UTC) That's helpful, thanks, let me ask someone to delete it. :). In 10 days, the American school year is over!--SWEETCARMEN♥ 01:33, 12 June 2007 (UTC) Omaha Beach edits G'day Riana, Would you be so kind as to look at 71.217.214.160 contributions to Omaha Beach. You may wish to have a look at [2] to get a flavour of this user's activities. May I request your usual diplomatic and helpful intervention please? Gillyweed 00:55, 12 June 2007 (UTC) Will check this out, gimme a few hours tho :) Cheers Gilly! Riana ⁂ 05:04, 12 June 2007 (UTC) 10 things About Wikipedia:10 things you did not know about images on Wikipedia... not to take away from MECU's great image work on Wikipedia, but Gurch (talk · contribs) came up with the ten items over IRC, and MECU fleshed them out into an essay. And it is a good essay! GracenotesT § 04:58, 12 June 2007 (UTC) Well... a better way to describe the creation of the essay is that it was brainstormed. GracenotesT § 05:01, 12 June 2007 (UTC) Torrisholme vandalism Hi Riana, the sock you reverted earlier ([3], [4], and [5]) is a sock of Graham Heavy (talk · contribs). If you look at the history of Torrisholme, you'll get an idea of the persistence of these socks [6]. (If you want to watch the pages he vandalises, it's helpful to have more eyes.) Anyway, we're trying to WP:DENY this puppeteer with WP:RBI (or revert, report, ignore, in my case), for what it's worth, so the socks aren't getting tagged as such anymore. And good luck on your exams and such, and if you ever want your mop back, drop me a note about your RfA. Cheers!

I'm not sure why people think it is! LOL Riana ⁂ 06:32, 12 June 2007 (UTC) Aww, shit. — Nearly Headless Nick {C} 06:34, 12 June 2007 (UTC) Hehehe. My birthday is in 9 days, though... have a Wikiparty then ;) Riana ⁂ 06:35, 12 June 2007 (UTC) Gawd Nearly headless! How insensitive! ;) I knew it was in 9 days, but I'd have forgotten by then. 19 is too special - you get to do all kinds of new stuff... like... erm.... Watch R19 movies? Okay, so you don't get anything much when you turn 19, but at least you can look forward to the cake & your 20th! Soon you'll be turning 30, then 40 & then who knows? I hear 50ths are cool. ;) Seriously though, savour your youth now. You're only young once. I think. Cheers, :) Spawn Man 07:15, 12 June 2007 (UTC). P.S. All good on engagement front. R19 movies...? Good one. Come to think of it...I doubt anyone would want to turn 50. Eternal youth! Oh and by the way..Happy birthday in 9 days :)--Dark Falls talk 07:21, 12 June 2007 (UTC) I would make a "so you're 21?" flattering joke, but as you're eighteen already... Happy birthday for next Thursday!

Riana ⁂ 04:47, 15 June 2007 (UTC) If you have some spare time... I know it almost never occurs, but if you have a few spare minutes, could you mosey on over to this user's page? I'm not sure whether he's just a bit defensive or whether he's actually disruptive with his contributions, but I'm not so good at teaching people in the first case, and can't do anything about the second case (except take it to the admins ;) ), so I figured I'd bring it to the mostly harmless admin for a decision. The Dark 16:46, 12 June 2007 (UTC) Hey TD, if the issue requires admin assistance I currently can't help... but what in particular is wrong? I had a glance and nothing seems particularly unstable, but I am a little sleepy :) Riana ⁂ 16:51, 12 June 2007 (UTC) CAT:CSD Oh my, it is empty now, I have longed to see this scene for daaaays.

On Saturday I asked Can't sleep, clown will eat me (talk · contribs) a simple question [7] and he said that I was trolling his talk page. Asking a question is not trolling. He responded on my talk page [8] He is a very stubborn administrator and does not respond in good faith. I am really confused about this. Like I said: "Asking a question is not trolling" Do you think I did something wrong? Or he did something wrong? I would like to know. Thank you. King Lopez Contribs 08:58, 14 June 2007 (UTC) Funnily enough. I did not see you trolling anywhere. I checked the history of the talk page, your comments were innocuous, definitely. But knowing that the Clown is an exemplery administrator, there must be more to the situation that meets the eye. I'll leave this pretty girl to deal with *teh* situation. :) — Nearly Headless Nick {C} 12:25, 14 June 2007 (UTC) Ok? Well what do you think about this Riana? King Lopez Contribs 01:16, 15 June 2007 (UTC) Not sure - I'll have a word with CSCWEM if you like. Riana ⁂ 03:42, 15 June 2007 (UTC) Yes please talk to CSCWEM. That is really bothering me. Tell CSCWEM that questions are not trolling. Thank you. King Lopez Contribs 09:05, 15 June 2007 (UTC) Well, Lopez, talk pages are mostly preserved for specific Wikipedia/article-related problems, and asking personal questions (e.g. "Why wasn't your username blocked?" and "Why do you semi-protect your user talk page?") is considered trolling. Continually edit-warring to keep them on his talk page certainly doesn't help the situation — not like their answers are so difficult to guess anyway. Just my personal opinion. Michaelas10 15:18, 15 June 2007 (UTC) RfA comment... I just had to tell you... your comment on Wimt's RfA totally cracked me up. :) Pinball22 16:57, 14 June 2007 (UTC) haha someone spends too much time on ebay Wikidan829 17:06, 14 June 2007 (UTC) Sounds a bit like me. :P —  $PЯINGrαgђ  17:10, 14 June 2007 (UTC) Obsessed? Me? Riana ⁂ 18:22, 14 June 2007 (UTC) Oh surely not. >:P —  $PЯINGrαgђ  21:15, 14 June 2007 (UTC) Question I've almost always agreed with your RfA votes in the past, but I don't quite fully understand your reasons for opposing DrKiernan's RfA - you cited WP:NOPRO and WP:YESPRO (presumably referring to the present RfD discussions) but I looked at the histories and I couldn't see anything wrong. Did I miss something important, or misinterpret the whole situation, or what? Waltontalk 18:10, 14 June 2007 (UTC) Ah, OK, I get it now. I only misunderstood because there are RfDs open on those two redirects and DrKiernan participated in both of them. Looking at the talkpage you cited I still don't 100% get why you're opposing, but you're entitled to your opinion. Anyway, thanks for clearing that up. Waltontalk 18:22, 14 June 2007 (UTC) Yeah... I'll have to go on wikibreak next week due to exams. :-( Besides which, have you noticed that CAT:CSD suddenly seems to have filled to the brim? It was nearly empty yesterday... Waltontalk 18:46, 14 June 2007 (UTC) Yeah, I've got three hours of solid exams on Mon 18th... fun. Plus, it'll be the first time since March that I've gone a whole day without editing Wikipedia. I am a true addict. Although my Wikipediholic score's actually gone down, since people keep removing questions from the test... Waltontalk 19:49, 14 June 2007 (UTC) I need help(please) Hello Riana if you don't mind could you look at this ? I don't know how to revert to the 1 with no vandalism could you help me?Regards--Arnon Chaffin (Talk) 18:32, 14 June 2007 (UTC) Is it OK now? Riana ⁂ 18:33, 14 June 2007 (UTC) Yes, thank you very much and have a nice day :)Arnon Chaffin (Talk) 18:35, 14 June 2007 (UTC) 2cows I definitely laughed myself into a headache with the A1 answer. Good one!⇒ SWATJester Denny Crane. 04:10, 15 June 2007 (UTC) User:Jnothman/afd helper/script.js Hey Riana, when you get the chance, could you please check the edits you made to the script? It's stopped working for me; I click the vote link, I put in my reason, then it takes me to the edit page with nothing updated. - G1ggy Talk/Contribs 04:51, 15 June 2007 (UTC) Hey G1ggy, I was told to make the edits by a non-admin who knows JS... I don't know any myself :( Could you ping one of the more clue-y admins on IRC or something? Riana ⁂ 04:55, 15 June 2007 (UTC) Rollback per request. Please drive through. :) ~Kylu (u|t) 05:00, 15 June 2007 (UTC) Thankee Kylu, let's hope it works :s Riana ⁂ 05:01, 15 June 2007 (UTC) Still isn't working for me. Could someone else try it? - G1ggy Talk/Contribs 05:03, 15 June 2007 (UTC) It worked when I used it... maybe some scripts in your monobook are tangling up? (Yeah, I'm very good at JS :P ) Um, sorry mate, I'm not sure what's wrong, I really suck at code. If you have IRC access I recommend getting someone smarter than me to have a look at it :) Riana ⁂ 05:06, 15 June 2007 (UTC) Block please? Could you deal with this guy? He's just here to be disruptive, I don't think the block was long enough. Wikidan829 15:32, 15 June 2007 (UTC) haha Just sit back and relax. Wikidan829 14:57, 16 June 2007 (UTC) Thank You It looks like my Request for Admin has closed successfully at (58/8/2). Your support is a thing I'm very grateful for. I consider it my duty to try to live up to the trust that you and others have shown in me. SirFozzie 18:08, 15 June 2007 (UTC) Are you ready for a challenge?!? I saw your name at Wikipedia:WikiProject Disambiguation. The Sophia disambiguation page is in dire need of someone to clean it up. It seems to have migrated into an article page on "Sophia". If you would fix it, I would be most grateful. -- Jreferee (Talk) 22:23, 15 June 2007 (UTC) Hmm, OK, I'll have a look when I've got some time to spare :) Riana ⁂ 07:53, 16 June 2007 (UTC) RfA Thank you visiting and commenting at my RfA, although I am still bemused by the amount of opposition based solely on my edits at MPFAP. All my edits to the actual page itself were relatively minor, a few words each time. In contrast, my edits to the talk page are substantial, often with detailed data and close discussion. Indeed, my edits have been designed to approach consensus, have often been neutrally worded and attempt to moderate the extreme positions, not support either one or the other. See for examples: [9][10][11][12][13][14][15]. I do hope that my extra comments address your concerns. Even if they don't, thanks for stopping by! DrKiernan 11:20, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
