Thankyou for participating in my request for adminship. Now I've got lots of extra buttons to try and avoid pressing by mistake... Redrose64 (talk) 16:03, 14 October 2011 (UTC) |

Content copied from User talk:Tide rolls where messages to me sometimes accidentally end up.
Im not sure if you noticed the post in which was referenced, but this user did not see the site in which was was citing an upcoming album from a famous singer. I was posting to THE USER with LINK IN HAND directly from the artist to clarify FOR THE USER. Please do not warn me when you're not reading what this is about. Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nydaelia (talk • contribs)
Hi Zippy. Entirely my own opinion, and I wouldn't want to rush you into a decision, but I fear that this RfA is not going to be successful and you may wish to consider withdrawing. Certainly give it another couple of days if you would like more feedback from !voters, but you can rest assured that I and a couple of others here would lend you all the support you need to prepare for a future attempt when you meet most peoples' criteria. FWIW, I wrote this esay. Best, --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 04:09, 15 October 2011 (UTC)
Gh87 has asked for a deletion review of Gillian Andrassy Lavery. Because you closed the deletion discussion for this page, speedily deleted it, or otherwise were interested in the page, you might want to participate in the deletion review. Gh87 (talk) 17:24, 15 October 2011 (UTC)
My opinions: Q4 - I block without advance warning very frequently - spamublock. Spam only and username that represents organisation. Q5 - No restriction to one relist. I can remember two, if not three, relists. If nothing happens then, go and edit something else. Someone will sort it. (Not policy, just playing safe. You are never the only admin. If you can't make your mind up, leave it. Whatever you decide could be wrong. But look at what did happen later.) Q6/Q7 - OK. The main problem with A7s is that people will use them wrongly. A7 is people, groups of people and web content. A Church but not a church. That is, The Church of the Last Wikipedian, but not St Wayne's, a church built in 1978 in Squinge Road, Blackberry Gulch. Wecansortit.wiz, but not the SortIt antivirus program. Dombey and Son Mowers Ltd, but not the Dombey Acme Hedge Mower. Q8/Q9 - good. But you will get into SPIs. Good idea to monitor them now - see what goes on. Q10 - looks like you were being led to discuss WP:3RR. Multiple - over what time period? Your answer about discussing was good, though. Hope you don't mind me doing this quick analysis - there'll probably be a flood of people telling you I'm talking BS. They could be right. Check and see... Peridon (talk) 20:52, 15 October 2011 (UTC)
I've been removing the same comments for the better part of 2 hours now. He has switched IPs once already.... any idea how to get him to stop? Jeancey (talk) 17:39, 16 October 2011 (UTC)

When you close a DRN discussion, the ((DRN archive top)) tag goes at the very beginning of the section on that dispute, just in front of the comments which read:
<!-- [[User:DoNotArchiveUntil]] 04:57, 23 November 2011 (UTC) --><!-- PLEASE REMOVE THE PREVIOUS COMMENT WHEN CLOSING THIS THREAD. (Otherwise the thread won't be archived until the date shown.) -->
(the date in that comment will vary, of course) and those comments must be deleted so the closed discussion will be promptly archived instead of waiting 30 days (which is intended as a roll-off for stale discussions, not for closed discussions). No criticism intended, just a FYI. Best regards and thanks for your work at DRN, TransporterMan (TALK) 15:18, 24 October 2011 (UTC)
oops.! Thanks for catching that. The Interior (Talk) 02:53, 25 October 2011 (UTC)

I don't want to get into an edit war but I don't know how to respond. The editor keeps adding in the fringe and original research information. He removed your warning from his talk page. Help? PRONIZ (talk) 18:34, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
Hi, I really don't think that an AfD like this with many keep, delete, or merge votes should be closed by a non-admin (and, in fact, if you care to read the appropriate guidelines is strongly discouraged). I strongly suggest that you undo your closure and leave it for an admin to do this. Thanks. --Crusio (talk) 20:28, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
Hi Zippy,
I just noticed your non-admin closure of the AfD for Occupy Buffalo. NAC says discussions "eligible" for closure should have a "clear keep outcomes after a full listing period" — true, the listing period has ended, but the consensus wasn't clear - 75% of the votes might've been keeps, but there's still those 25% of us who voted "delete". I'd suggest un-closing it and leaving an admin to it. Cheers! HurricaneFan25 20:33, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
Thanks for the concern of the above two editors. I think the concerns expressed are right, so I've reverted the closure to allow an admin to close the discussion. ItsZippy (talk • contributions) 21:06, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
Good work with your efforts at DRN. Would you be interested in joining our email chat about ways to improve the dispute resolution processes? If so, shoot me an email, I'm at cro0016gmail.com. Keep up the good work, it's really appreciated. Steven Zhang The clock is ticking.... 09:23, 28 October 2011 (UTC)
Thanks for the assist at Ratnam concept school. I'm going to leave off reporting to ANI unless the disruptive editing starts up again; lord knows the admins have enough on their plates at present. Good suggestion, though, and if it kicks off again I'll be there like a shot. Cheers, Yunshui 雲水 09:43, 28 October 2011 (UTC)
