Thank you, Animum/Archives/2007, for your support on my recent RfA, which recently passed 54/1/1. I hope I can live up to everyone's expectations. I will certainly take the constructive criticism I recieved to heart. Please, if you have any comments or complaints about my actions as an administrator, leave a note on my talk page.

Hello there, i'm The Random Editor. I'm kind of new here you could say. I have been here since March 2007, though I have only had the opportunity to edit for a total of one month's time. I'm trying to say hi, to all the people I see on WP:MOTTO and stuff like that. I have seen your username pop up alot so just thought I would say hi, "hi!" --Random Say it here! 01:30, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

Hi, Magnus. Yesterday, I spent forty-five minutes closing who-knws-how-many mottoes, and today I've closed the same amount. But, there are still some mottoes needing to be closed, but quite honestly, I'm a bit sick of it. I've had a few mishaps (including accidentely blanking the nominations page), so I'm a bit frustrated. Do you think you could give me a hand? I understand if you'd rather not, as some people at RfA might look down upon it, but the in review section has really gotten out of hand. Thanks, Magnus! *Cremepuff222* 17:43, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
However, aren't multiple versions of the same one often approved? Simply south 19:30, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
Cool. I'll be closing regularly now so that we can avoid these mass closers in the future. Thanks for all of your help! On a random note, how was the movie? *Cremepuff222* 23:58, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
On ((Motd nomclosing)), if you simply copy the discussions needing to be closed from "In review" to "Awaiting decision", you shouldn't run into an edit conflict. Very few people edit the nominations page itself, making it much easier to close nominations. I suppose it's all a matter of opinion on whether you want to use the template, though. However, I would discourage using it on the In review page, because I know I would be upset if I went to vote on a motto for the first time and saw that. --Tewy 21:53, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
Sorry, Magnus. I missed the tag at the top of MOTTO and supported a motto. Then I reverted it which ended up reverting the edit you did seconds before. Instead of reverting back to your edit. I decided to leave it alone. Sorry. --Random Say it here! 23:47, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
Just a minor formatting comment, but please close nominations without the bulleted system; it stands out more (see Wikipedia talk:Motto of the day/Nominations/Archive 3#Closing). Thanks. --Tewy 17:46, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

I was the user who edited the page on Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises. Pardon me, but I did not delete any content from that page: all I did was add a spoiler warning, which owing to my inexpertise was not done with the proper template. I'm now going to find out what the proper template is and add it again, and since the plot summary for The Sun Also Rises does feature spoilers, I defy you to remove it again.

Hello, Magnus animum. An automated process has found and removed an image or media file tagged as nonfree media, and thus is being used under fair use that was in your userspace.

No need to apologize. That article was a mess when you nominated it.

An interesting question: I've never been asked that before. :) To be honest, I've always considered the pronunciation to be "Aca-lamari" instead of "A-calamari". I liked the way "Aca-lamari" sounded, which was one of the reasons why I chose it. Thanks for asking. :) Acalamari 20:00, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
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.
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 15:24, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

Since you seem to want comments on your edits I just wanted to mention that you forgot a paragraph when you restored the George Boole article from vandalism here: [1].

Hello again Magnus. Sorry, I got bad news. I reviewed your answers and it seems to me that you're still not ready. You should definitely read the Protection policy carefully, and keep monitoring WP:RFPP and WP:AIV to see other admins' decisions as reference. Regards, Húsönd 01:13, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
One could say I have a tool. First, I look for a commonly redirected to page (in this case, WW2), and I did a "what links here" on the page. Then, I copied the correct page location (World War II) and clivked on each of the links on the "what links here" page. Once I opened a page, I did ctrl+f and typed "WW2," and replaced each match accordingly. There's also a script to highlight redirect pages, so you could use that too. Now I have a question for you: what does "ZOMG" mean? :) *Cremepuff222* 01:03, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
Do you use some sort of tool to do it? I do it all manually... *Cremepuff222* 01:21, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

Magnus, you're still failing to be clear. The only thing you needed to do really was to acknowledge and understand your mistake. It's a basic procedure for improvement. This situation yesterday caused me serious doubts on your preparedness. :-/ I was going to offer to nominate you if you had some positive results on my final admin coaching requests. But sadly not only I found some serious flaws, as also your response to my thumbs-down was not the kind I would I expect in someone ready to be given access to a higher level of responsibility within Wikipedia. Should your RFA occur today, I would have to oppose it, with most bitter regret. I have not lost faith in you and I believe that you have good potential to become an admin, but not just yet. Even if you've read the policies I've asked you to and now understand their respective applications (and this is positive), you will require more time and dedication. Please follow my advice and monitor other admins as they decide whether or not to protect pages, and whether or not to block users. Read the policies. When you believe you're ready, you may ask me to review you again. Needless to say, I'll have to be quite impressed with your progress in order to be assured that the doubts risen yesterday no longer exist. I apologize for sounding so unpleasantly, but it's for your own good I believe. Don't be mad at me. Just keep up the good work and report progresses. Thank you.

I've reviewed your interpretation of WP:SNOW and WP:IAR. You seem to be understanding them now. I have one reservation though. You stated "the snowball clause can only be applied after the discussion has ended". That is not accurate. Even if a discussion is just at its beginning, if you can already antecipate its certain outcome, you may invoke WP:SNOW and close it accordingly before the discussion has ended. Naturally, you must be sure of that outcome, something experienced users usually are. Regards, Húsönd 15:12, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for making a report on Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism. Reporting and removing vandalism is vital to the functioning of Wikipedia and all users are encouraged to revert, warn, and report vandalism. However, administrators are generally only able to block users if they have received a recent final warning (one that mentions that the user may be blocked) and they have recently vandalized after that warning was given. The reported user has not yet been blocked because it appears this has not occurred yet. If this user continues to vandalize after their final warning, please report them to the AIV noticeboard again. Thank you. Theresa Knott | Taste the Korn 23:23, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
