<Archive span> Re: 2000

I won't even think about accepting a nomination until after 2500 though. —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  15:09, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

I might know what you're thinking, although if I'm not, never mind. ;) Although a few more (main) edits would probably be well-recieved. —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  02:23, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Request for adminship

On this occasion, your request for adminiship was not successful. I hope that you will continue your useful contributions and consider standing again in future. Remember that a majority of those commenting did support your request, and many of those opposing simply want to see more of your contributions! Warofdreams talk 16:08, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

Ouch. :( Better luck next time. At least you didn't get butchered. --tjstrf 18:03, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

I'm sorry. Goof luck next time. Michael 19:38, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

Remember, hang on, hang in, hang out, and hang loose! :P —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  19:40, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

RfA

You'll get there, you just need to do some article editing. Good luck to you in the elections (you are in, right?)

And yes, I do. :D Highway ^Daytrippers 19:02, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

Nil Desperandum

Ho hum. You know what they say - 45, still alive!! Better luck next time, Snake–– DiLuna25 19:13, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

This reminds me of a funny joke in which Snake has diarrhea. I'll leave you to figure out the punchline, it's rather obvious. Will ^{(Glaciers melting in the dead of night)} 08:43, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Hey Man I'm sorry

Hey Man sorry the RFA didn't make it. Hopefully you will make it on teh second time up. Good luck Æon ^{Insanity Now!}_EA! 20:25, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

I'm sure you'll become an admin once you get around 1000 article edits. You're a great editor, all the same. The ikiroid (talk·desk·Advise me) 20:54, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

I don't take part in every RfA, so I'm sorry to see yours fail due to something so petty. I watch the RfAs, even though I don't always comment, so I'll participate again if you decide to make another try at it in the future. Sxeptomaniac 22:12, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

Your Welcome BTW who knows maybe we will both be admins soon. Æon ^{Insanity Now!}_EA! 00:43, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

Thanks! who knows!! Æon ^{Insanity Now!}_EA! 20:23, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

your rfa

No problem Halo, if you come up again in a few months with more experience under your belt I will surely support. Themindset 23:53, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

Your RfA

Hey, for someone who had <1000 mainspace edits, you did remarkably well. Don't take the result of your RfA as a downer. You can contribute to more articles on Wikipedia, and if you re-apply for adminship in a few months, almost everyone will be on your side, including me. --Nishkid64 00:07, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

Not at all! Bit of a bummer, that, but you will make a good admin when it eventually happens. All the best, and I hope we don't have to wait too long to see your name here! — riana_dzasta _{wreak havoc|damage report} 00:42, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

Try again another time eh? :) --Andeh 01:00, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

Just do alot of maintenance/cleanup of articles, particulary on Special:Newpages (help newbies out!), and learn to use the tags.--Andeh 20:15, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

Well, writing great articles doesn't automatically make a user a qualified admin (as some believe) *rolls eyes*.--Andeh 20:22, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

congrats and condolences

Dude... Sorry you didn't make it, but as the voices are telling you, it's likely you will next time. You ran a class act and you've my support next time as well, count on it. Anything I can do meanwhile, ask... ++Lar: t/c 01:07, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

Yep, same here hoopydink^{Conas tá tú?} 01:20, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

Sorry for the RfA, I really thought that you were going to make it... I hope that this does not discourage you, and that you may try again in the near future. I'm sure that you will find even more supporters then. Best regards.--Húsönd 02:40, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

Dude, Halo, you will never let me down; you will just continue to impress me. Keep being the awesome person that you are, and next time I'm sure everyone will realise what a great job you will do. I have confidence, and so should you! -- Natalya 04:23, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

from Storkk too

(edit conflict) I was of neutral opinion in your recent RfA, and appreciated your thanks. As I said in my comment, I am of a very similar opinion to User:Blnguyen when it comes to the necessity of encyclopedic edits -- for very much the same reasons. However, I will not vote oppose unless there are tangible negative factors as well. With more mainspace edits, you can certainly count on my support next time around. You took your RfA and its outcome with class and grace... good for you & I hope we meet again! :-) --Storkk 01:28, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

I couldn't agree more. Nice to see someone big enough to not chuck it in after a failed RFA. "Class" is exactly the right word. I took the same position as Stork and Blnguyen: rack up the article edits and I'll be delighted to support next time round. Cheers, Moreschi 13:53, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

I am very sorry to know that your RfA has failed. I am sure you deserve more than that and that being a very good editor like yourselves is more important to us than being a good admin. -- Szvest 14:12, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

Dude, rather unlucky.

I'm sure you'll get it next time, just hang in there! Will ^{(Glaciers melting in the dead of night)} 08:43, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

Hope you are feeling OK after experiencing the recent failure of your RfA. Although I added neutral support in your nomination page, this was acted upon in good faith. I completely understand how you feel as I have gone through the same heart-wrenching feeling three times here! Anyway, do not lose heart and continue editing brilliantly on this project. I am sure you (as well as myself) will become an admin in the future! Just do not lose hope and fight on! --Siva1979^{Talk to me} 16:08, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

I will be ready to support your next time. Best of luck, and happy editing! --Merovingian - Talk 18:11, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

Sorry about your RfA

Yeah, I started a new section. Sosumi. :)

Just a note to say that I'm really sorry your RfA was unsuccessful. I honestly do believe that you have a lot of potential, as clichéd as it may sound, and that you'd do damn well as an administrator. It's very unfortunate that you had to deal with this crap, but I suppose there's nothing much that can be done about that.

Don't let this discourage you, though. You're well on the road to being an admin, and now you have 32 oppose votes' (well... 31) worth of feedback for you to work on for next time. Good luck, and happy editing! Daveydweeb (^chat/_patch) 23:33, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

By the way, have you considered admin coaching? There's quite a long waiting list, but it might be helpful. I've been in line there for weeks, but I'm looking forward to it... Daveydweeb (^chat/_patch) 23:48, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

Glad to leave you comments on your RfA! You're a much better contributor than I am, and I will surely support your next nomination :-) - Mike 00:57, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Sorry

Sorry man that I voted oppose. I feel really bad even though I would have done the same to myself if I was up. I never intended to hurt your feelings. I hope you don't feel badly towards me.... Sorry once again. Spawn Man 12:11, 24 September 2006 (UTC) :(. P.S. I just noticed that Sergent Snopake is gone & that NathanR.Com has been blocked indefinitely. Your name seems to be connected & I shamelessly thought I could pry some info from you to see what the heck happened?! If you can't, I'll understand... Have a nice day Halo.

P.P.S. I really like the way you personally replied to each of the people who voted in your RfA with a unique comment. It must have taken some time & shows how nice a person you are. - Spawn Man 12:13, 24 September 2006 (UTC).

I know who he got the idea from. —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  22:11, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

• Another sorry note, this time from someone who didn't support- basically I didn't have enough time to properly look at your contribs etc so I couldn't really support. I suspect however that if I had the time, I would have ended up supporting- so sorry that I didn't manage that. Cheers, Petros471 22:31, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
• Argh, sorry man... really think you would have done a great job. Keep up the good work that you're doing, work with the constructive suggestions on the RfA, and I'm sure that the next go will pass without a problem. Take care -- Samir धर्म 22:50, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

• Thanks all! :) It really does mean a lot to see all of your support here. You've all been really great to me. And, Spring, she borrowed an idea from me for her RfA thanks, so I'm sure Sharon won't mind me doing the same ;) Thε Halo ^Θ 09:24, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Mr. Lefty's RfA thanks

Hi, The_Halo, and thanks for supporting me in my recent request for adminship, which succeeded with a final tally of 70/4/4. I hope I can live up to your expectations, and if there's ever anything you need, you know where to find me! --Mr. Lefty Talk to me! 00:24, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Esperanza/User Page Award

Congratulations, The Halo, you have been nominated for the Esperanza User Page Contest! The judges have received the fifteen entries, and are ready to start judging. The judges will take a week to complete the judging process, and they will contact all the participants when the judging is done.

Please drop by the contest page for contest updates and questions. Take care, and good luck!

Daniel.Bryant 07:11, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Nishkid64's RfA thanks

Thank you very much for participating in my RfA, which closed successfully earlier today with a result of (60/9/4). Although, I encountered a few problems in my RfA, I have peacefully resolved my conflicts and made amends with the people involved. If you have any further questions or suggestions, feel free talk to me. I hope I will live up to your expectations. --Nishkid64 22:14, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Horizonte Medio

No worries, (sorry I missed the first post I had my head buried in a book) whatever you did achieved a happy end result so well done! :) Glen 09:50, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

Whether or not Snopake told you...

Kyoko is back! She told me a small bit on my talk page, but asked me to tell you. There is a page esay she wrote that explains most of it. What a remedy for Wikistress! :D —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  18:01, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

A little star to light your way

		Esperanza Barnstar
		For everything you have done for Esperanza I Aeon award you your second EA Barnstar. Æon Insanity Now!EA! 03:08, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

thank you, and sorry

Hi The Halo (that sounds awkward), thank you very much for your welcoming words. I really appreciate them. I also want to express my condolences that your RfA failed. I do think that you would be a trustworthy administrator, but I also feel that admins should have considerable experience in writing (and not just reverting) articles, so that they can see how articles are collaborated on, edit wars take place, etc. I think I might have said this all before.

Totally off topic, but do you have any idea how Phaedriel is? She has been gone for quite some time, and I'm getting a bit concerned. I really hope that she isn't feeling the way I did and still sometimes do. --Kyoko 20:46, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know about Sharon. --Kyoko 14:29, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

Congrats Halo!

Congrats my man on making the EA Counsel! Æon ^{Insanity Now!}_EA! 02:24, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

Elections

Esperanza elections

---

Thanks for supporting me in the September Advisory Council Esperanza elections. Although I wasn't elected to the Advisory Council, I am very happy with the response I received from my fellow Wikipedians. I was shocked at the support, and was touched by it. Hopefully I will re-apply in March and try again for the job. Thanks again, Highway ^Daytrippers 23:46, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

I know I should be assuming good faith, but it just seems odd. A candidate who has already voted for people earlier in the election, votes for a candidate who is tying for the last seat, in the last minute of the election? Highway ^Daytrippers 10:35, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

Nah, some things are just meant to happen. Highway ^Daytrippers 11:07, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

Congratulations

I'm sure you'll do a great job. Michael 13:58, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

me too! Congrats!!! You'll make a great Councillor.--Ed^{talk c E} 23:25, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

That just goes to show you the importance of reverting. With all that you have been through, don't say you don't deserve it.:D--Chili14 01:23, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

There were EA elections?

Didn't know about them because of the stress I've been put under recently. It seems you're better at dealing with it, so, congratulations! I know you'll make a magnificent member. Will ^{(Glaciers melting in the dead of night)} 01:36, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

LOL

Yep next time lol, I'm kind of on Semi Wikibreak for the last week of my class. Next weak it is back to wackin vandals lol. Æon ^{Insanity Now!}_EA! 19:22, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

Happy Birthday from Editor at Large at Esperanza! Hey, The Halo/Archive05! I heard it was your birthday, so I took the liberty of hand-making you a birthday card and sent it off on a Certified Esperanza Balloon. I hope the birds don't get to it first!

Eat it, even though your name is not Susan. Happy Birthday!!!--Chili14 04:15, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Have a good one, er... Susan...

Belated Happy Birthday! I hope nice things are happening to a nice person :) Enjoy your pavlova, I think you've had enough cake... — riana_dzasta _{wreak havoc-damage report} 09:54, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Hi Evocativelntrigue :)

Thank you so very much for your kind vote. I hope that I can live up to the high standards set by others AC members, and help continue Esperanza down it's wonderful path. All the best, Thε Halo Θ 11:57, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

Hi, Halo! I would like to wish you a belated Happy Birthday! Coincidentally, October 7 is also my mom's birthday!!!--Ed^{I'm lonely, talk to me} _contribs 13:17, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

A little late for this, but happy birthday! --Kyoko 14:02, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks, I hope my kidneys are better too. You say you were on an unexpected wikibreak? I hope it wasn't due to anything unfortunate... --Kyoko 14:15, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Well, computer problems are unfortunate too. Anyway, I'm glad to see you back! --Kyoko 14:27, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Just computer problems, right? That's OK then. We all need a bit of time off anyhow :) Glad to see you back around. — riana_dzasta _{wreak havoc|damage report} 15:21, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Good-o! Don't slack off on us now *cracks whip* :p — riana_dzasta _{wreak havoc|damage report} 15:26, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

AH, riana_dzasta!!! Don't get too excited for Halo coming back just yet! There's always time to whip her later anyway... Anyway, nice to see you're back!!!--Ed^{I'm lonely, talk to me} _contribs 18:38, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

I guess I'll post my reply here. Nice to have you back, mate! And Ed…I don't really think he looks like a woman…even though he's had that said to him before! By the way: Here's my reply, Halo:

Hehe. >:D I'll have to adpot that as my "symbol" I guess. :P —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  18:53, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

I guess it's time to change my picture, right? I'll just have to find something more masculine...:P I think that the springs are a pretty good idea Spring. Maybe you can find a place for them on your userpage? Thε Halo ^Θ 19:17, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Dang you have good ideas! I would have never though of that! And as for changing your picture…just keep the original as well, OK? ;) —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  19:19, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

I'm sure I'll find a place for the old thing somewhere. Maybe in my sandbox, or something like that...Thε Halo ^Θ 19:20, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Actually I meant the image. By the way, I don't know about now, but your hair is almost as long in that picture as mine is now! :P Time for a cut… —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  19:22, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

I've been growing it for over a year 0_0 It's a bit longer now than it is in the pic, but not by much. My hair is sometime very annoying, so I can understand well why you want a cut ;) Thε Halo ^Θ 19:25, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Oh my God!! I am SO SORRY!!! (Which is why I highly encourage gender userboxes on people's pages)--Ed^{I'm lonely, talk to me} _contribs 19:28, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Don't worry Ed. I'm secure enough in my masculinity to be called a woman every now and then ;) Thε Halo ^Θ 19:33, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Well I've been through worse occasions about this-IN REAL LIFE.(I'm implying something very embarrasing here) --Ed^{I'm lonely, talk to me} _contribs 19:49, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Sounds like something that would make me cringe....which I do a lot in real-life. Thε Halo ^Θ 19:53, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Hahaha. People Powered called me a 'he' the other day, too. He protested and said the teal on my userpage threw him off. *sigh* Halo, if you change your picture, make sure it's another happy smiling one. :p — riana_dzasta _{wreak havoc|damage report} 04:27, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

I was thinking something more along the lines of guns, sports cars, battling zombies etc, all that stereotypically macho stuff, just so there are no future confusions ;) Seriously, I'll have to think for awhile before putting up a new pic. Thε Halo ^Θ 09:54, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

I've been called a girl before on the wiki. While I admit that I have very few male friends and am not much into football (just follow one team's results), I still have guy parts :P Will ^{(Glaciers melting in the dead of night)} 23:31, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

RfA thanks from StuffOfInterest

Thank you for participating in my RfA, which finished with a tally of 52/6/1 (~90%). It was an interesting process which gave me a chance to learn a bit about myself and about the community. My intention now is to slowly ease into using those additional buttons on my page. No use being over eager and mucking up the works. The support of all those who went over my record and/or rallied to my defense after the big oppose vote was instumental to the success of this review. Again, thank you! --StuffOfInterest 12:12, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

RE: belated thank you

Hi Halo,

No problem, always nice to hear from you anyway!

Hiya! I'm contacting you because you're listed on Wikipedia:Mediation Cabal as "willing to accept assigned cases" if you find it interesting. Well, we've got a bit of a backlog, and I was wondering if you'd look over the current list of new cases (I've copied it here for convenience) and tell me if you'd take any of them? I'd really appreciate it! :D

Mohammad Khatami

There is an administrator that is removing the criticism of Mohammad Khatami, bringing his quotations from Wikiquote to Wikipedia to unnecessarily lengthen the article, and deleting the history of its (his/her) edits.

I am reverting the edits. But I have been editing and patrolling the page for some time. What can I do?--Patchouli 22:36, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

My pop-up tool doesn't show it, but here are the references materials that were removed http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mohammad_Khatami&diff=82234577&oldid=81566675

re: Well Wishes

Hi there, I'm now out of the hospital, and I wanted to thank you for your well wishes. Yes, I don't like being in hospitals either, but I'm sorta getting used to it now. Now if they were less like, well, hospitals and more like resorts, they would be more enjoyable. Thanks again! --Kyoko 22:44, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

Some quick thanks, the summary really said it all.--Kyoko 12:29, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

I wanted to add that I wasn't in the hospital most recently due to an emergency but rather as a followup evaluation for other things. I'm sorry if this led to any confusion. Thanks again, and could you please tell me if you can 1)see my signature in the new font, and 2)if my new signature is too big or distracting? Thanks.--Kyoko 05:29, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

Maybe my new sig is only visible to people who have Macs? I wanted to use a font that looked like handwriting, and the Zapfino font happened to resemble my actual handwriting more than other fonts I could have used, such as Brush Script and Lucida Handwriting. I'm not going to worry about changing my sig to make the font visible to everybody, unless if I get complaints.--Kyoko 13:32, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

Wow, that's pretty... ambitious! :) SA is awesome - I've only lived here a year, but I love it. And it's unbelievably good for people who love wine :) You can't move in any direction out of Adelaide without passing through wine country.

Flinders is really great too - obviously I don't know much about the arty side of the uni, but I've seen a few of their productions, and they're really good.

Good luck with saving up - although I've heard Australia is cheaper than England, so once you get here, you should be OK :) riana_dzasta 14:37, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

But the anticipation is the best part! :) Good luck, and if you ever get here, I'll help you figure out Adelaide's confusing bus system :P riana_dzasta 14:44, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

Ed Articles

Since when was any ED article about a Wikipedia editor not attack-related? Fredil Yupigo 20:01, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

Like honestly, even the ones about good users (like Phaedriel) are, well, let's not go there. Fredil Yupigo 23:19, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
