Fair use image edit

Hope to see you back soon, The wub! Anyways, I noticed that you had Image:Jyllands-Posten Muhammad drawings.jpg shown on your user page. The image is uploaded under a fair use provision, and Wikipedia policy states that fair use images should not be displayed on any pages outside the main (article) namespace, including user pages. Would you mind removing the image or simply linking to it? (Add a ":" in from of the image, like this: [[:Image:Jyllands-Posten Muhammad drawings.jpg]]) Thanks a lot! (That's the standard message I've been using, but if you're on a break and don't reply after a few days, I'll go ahead and take the liberty of removing it myself. Hope you don't mind.) Thanks, and come back soon! Flcelloguy (A note?) 21:19, 4 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

OK, I'm going to go ahead and change it to a link; I hope you don't mind. I hope to see you back soon! Flcelloguy (A note?) 00:56, 7 February 2006 (UTC)Reply
I wouldn't normally have have fair use images on my page, but I feel very strongly about this, and want to speak out. I seriously doubt they present any legal threat to Wikipedia, can you imagine JP trying to sue anyone over them? If you still feel it has to go though I won't get into an edit war over it. the wub "?!" 16:12, 7 February 2006 (UTC)Reply
Now you know I felt felt with the Democratic logo, my friend. But you're right, I stuck in there and hit my 2000th edit today :-) Thanks for believing in me. Karmafist 20:55, 8 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

Not a Democracy edit

I don't support Wikipedia becoming a Democracy either, but rather a sociocracy, which we already have the rudiments of. I'm just trying to push it along with that petition of mine, so we can make sure that "catching Jimbo at a bad time" never hurts anyone like that ever again.

Another Esperanzial note... edit

Hi again Esperanzians! Well, since our last frolic in the realms of news, the Advisory Council has met twice more (see WP:ESP/ACM2 and WP:ESP/ACM3). As a result, the charter has been ammended twice (see here for details) and all of the shortcuts have been standardised (see the summary for more details). Also of note is the Valentines ball that will take place in the Esperanza IRC channel on the 14th of February (tomorrow). It will start at 6pm UTC and go on until everyone's had enough! I hope to see you all there! Also, the spamlist has been dissolved - all Esperanzians will now recieve this update "newsletter".

The other major notice I need to tell you about is the upcoming Esperanza Advisory Council Elections. These will take place from 12:00 UTC on February 20th to 11:59 UTC on February 27th. The official handing-over will take place the following day. Candidates are able to volunteer any time before the 20th, so long as they are already listed on the members list. Anyone currently listed on the memberlist can vote. In a change since last time, if you have already been a member of the leadership, you may run again. Due to the neutrality precident, I will not vote for anyone.

Yours, as ever, Esperanzially,

But the Joe came back... edit

Don't know if you remember me, wub, but I was one of the "fallouts" from the userbox debaucle. Like you, I tried to stay away, but have decided to come back, albeit carefully and slightly grudgingly. --Joe Sewell (talk) 18:33, 13 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hello! edit

Does blocking count as editing? :-) Anyway...I just unblocked the imposter account Kurps and reblocked everything...I must have done it right after you did it, because when I read the block log, I only saw you unblocking - I misinterpreted this as something else entirely. Anyway, thanks for catching that. --HappyCamper 00:50, 16 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hmm... edit

Well if you did that, I'd suggest you take with you this jar of premium grade extra virgin olive oil: --HappyCamper 01:03, 16 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

My user page edit

Hi. Thanks for the reverts you made to my user page. Cheers TigerShark 01:17, 17 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

3000 edit

I'm sorry I was such a jerk at 1000, I miss you being amazed at my welcoming accomplishments.I miss that friendship of yours, and I hope you can come back from your work soon.

Also, on Template:2004Hillsborough19GeneralCourt, that is me. I wish there was a way I could prove it to you, but other than calling me or something, I just don't know how I could. I'll leave it alone for now, I'm not notable until I win. Karmafist 23:34, 19 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

=Lol n00b edit

lol, It's alright, you can vote for me in my re-rfa if that ever happens :-P Those admin buttons feel like phantom limbs that I lost in a war or something lately... Oh well. Wikipedia's loss if it doesn't want me with the mop :-) Later buddy, thanks for cleaning up that little mess there on your page, Karmafist 20:41, 22 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

Community Justice edit

Dear members of Community Justice,

This message is just a simple newsletter, telling you of some recent progress.

Community Justice didn't get as many members as we initially hoped, however we currently have 11, including a few sysops.

The temporary council is now fully set-up, and it will remain in it's current form unless someone contacts me (or uses the talk page) to say that they wish to join the council, or to hold a higher post. In this case, an election will be organised.

We have created two warning tags: {{civil1}} and {{civil2}}. These aren't been widely used, so I ask you to use them when you see fit.

Finally, thanks! Computerjoe 19:24, 25 February 2006 (UTC) (delivered in AWB).Reply

My RFA edit

Thank you for supporting my successful request for adminship. I'll try to put the admin tools to good and responsible use. If I do anything wrong you know where to find me. Raven4x4x 08:41, 28 February 2006 (UTC)Reply


Great law! edit

Your addition to Raul's Laws was great! Just wanted to tell you that... :-) Essjay TalkContact 11:36, 11 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

Thanks. That page is probably one of my absolute favourites on Wikipedia, so much wisdom is gathered there. Your two laws are particularly great as well - especially the first one! the wub "?!" 12:02, 11 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

Ignore the Arbitration edit

Worked well for him for a long time ;-) I expect they've already made up their minds irregardless of what I say, so I don't see the point in participating. Karmafist 03:43, 14 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

FYI edit

The {{click}} template you created was nominated for deletion last week. --CBDunkerson 03:02, 15 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

Esperanza Newsletter, Issue #1 edit

Reach out is a program aimed at allowing users to bring issues that they have had in Wikipedia to a listening, sympathetic and caring audience:
"No one can know how we feel if we do not say. We cannot expect to get understanding if we do not ask for it. No one will dispute that sometimes life's issues are too much for one person. It is fair to say that sometimes Wikipedia's problems fall under the same heading. This is a place where you can bring the bruises that can sometimes be got on this project for attention."
The Stress alerts program aims at identifying users who are stressed, alerting the community of thier stress and works in tandem with the Stressbusters at trying to identify causes of stress and eliminating them.
Note from the editor
Welcome to this new format of the Esperanza Newsletter, which came about during the last Advisory Council meeting - we hope you like it! The major changes are that each month, right after the Council meeting, this will be sent out and will include two featured programs and a sum up of the meeting. Also, it will be signed by all of the Advisory Council members, not just Celestianpower. Have an Esperanzial end of March, everyone!
  1. Future meetings are to be held monthly, not fortnightly as before.
  2. Bans and Access level changes (apart from autovoice) in the IRC channel are to be reported at the new log.
  3. In the IRC channel, there is going to be only one bot at a time.
  4. The charter requires members to have 150 edits and 2 weeks editing. Why this is the case will be clarified.
  5. A new Code of Conduct will be drafted by JoanneB and proposed to the Esperanza community.
  6. The NPA reform idea is to be dropped officially.
  7. Charter ammendments are to be discussed in future, not voted on.
  8. The Advisory Council is not going to be proposed to be expanded by the Advisory Council themselves, if others want to propose it, they will listen.
Signed...

My RfA edit

  My RfA
Thank you for supporting/opposing/commenting on my request of adminship, sadly the result was 54/20/7 an thus only 73% support votes, resulting in that the nomination failed. As many of you commenting that I have to few main-space edits, I'll try to better my self on that part. If you have any ideas on what kind of articles I could edit, pleas send me a line. :) AzaToth
