To Follow up on

Since we're maturing as a community, maybe it's time to revisit these things. — Ched :  ?  15:02, 2 October 2009 (UTC)

WikiVoices Arbcom interviews

I noticed a comment of yours in my watchlist ... Just a holiday drive-by note to say I found the interviews very "good" things to hear in such contexts ... But sorry there were so few (and therefore perhaps an unfair advantage, but such is the way of the world).

Enough yapping ... Happy holidays to you ... with a special pat for Stick. (And, yes, that's a cool barnstar.) Proofreader77 (talk) 21:27, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

Hey, the more we communicate with each other, the better we'll be as a collective group. Text as it is lacks various voice inflections and such, so I appreciate the opportunity to "hear" a person state his thoughts. I thank you for the chance to hear a few folks discuss their views. All my best, Ched — Ched :  ?  03:08, 4 December 2009 (UTC)
(Reply to your message on my talk) Excuse confusion. I didn't do the interviews—just agreeing with you that they are good things. (But, as I said, too bad they weren't available for all candidates*— and to some extent that may not be fair. ) Proofreader77 (talk) 07:52, 4 December 2009 (UTC)

Great News!!!

Bacon Materializer

Unable to resist bacon's temptations, rogue editors have kicked off the Bacon Challenge 2010 before the New Year even starts! This is a fun and collegial event and all are welcome. There are many non-pork articles for editors who enjoy some sizzle but object to or don't like messing with pig products. This year's event also includes a Bacon WikiCup 2010 for those who may want to keep score and enjoy engaging in friendly competition. Given the critical importance of this subject matter, I know you will want to participate, so remember to sign up today and get started A.S.A.P. ALL ARE WELCOME!!! The more the merrier.

I could have sworn I already dropped one of these notifications here... very strange. ChildofMidnight (talk) 02:34, 5 December 2009 (UTC)

Re: Just a Note

Thanks for the kind words :) I hear you on the busy R/L thing...I've only been on a few hours in the past couple of weeks. So far behind on my watchlist I don't know where to start. November and December always seem to be a much busier than usual (odd considering school is about over), and my moving hasn't helped at all. Perhaps I'll be able to get back into things soon, and hopefully you can as well :) — Huntster (t @ c) 05:51, 5 December 2009 (UTC)

Coffee, Re: rethinking my last remark

Ched, I was making a point. The remark I made was the same one that brought the matter to WQA. Incidentally, if you felt the need to tell me to rethink it, objectively you probably should do the same to Coffee; but the matter seems to be resolved anyway for now. Equazcion (talk) 23:17, 10 Dec 2009 (UTC)

I hope it's resolved. It's just that 2 wrongs are never going to make a "right" (although 3 lefts will). I'll admit, I personally happen to like Coffee a great deal - I respect what he's done, and where he's come from, but I won't get into details there. Sure, I admit that his wording could have been less than optimal - but just like I got my head handed to me for trying to get another editor unblocked for a "shit for brains" remark a while back; I just don't want to see things escalate here either. Yea, sometimes tensions build up (for whatever reasons), and things get said that shouldn't be. We're all here to build an encyclopedia, and I hate seeing those kind of USENET flamewars get started. We all have our "trigger words" and phrases that piss us off, and we all want to respond in kind when provoked. But the bottom line is that it's not going to get anyone anywhere. Any type of "dick-measuring" over the Internet is simply going to be a waste of keystrokes. It's only going to increase anger levels all the way around. Eventually - somebody is going to end up getting blocked by some passing admin that either isn't aware of the entire situation, has a particular bias, or simply doesn't care. I hate seeing folks get blocked, and if I can possibly help it, I'll try to avoid it. And if possible, I'll even try to diffuse a tense situation when I see it. I'm just asking that we all try to show a modicum of respect for each other; even those we don't agree with. — Ched :  ?  23:35, 10 December 2009 (UTC)
and on a side note: yes, I've spoken to Coffee privately about the situation. I offered the best advice I could; so we'll see how things go. — Ched :  ?  23:39, 10 December 2009 (UTC)
You're correct about two wrongs not making a right. This wasn't due to my having felt provoked, and I normally wouldn't have made a comment like that just because someone else did. It was part of a larger effort. I was hoping to show Coffee how it feels to be on the receiving end of a comment like that. Your response to it was actually the most useful result of it -- it basically showed that a comment like that does indeed need to be rethought. Who knows, maybe it worked and that's why he acquiesced shortly after. Equazcion (talk) 23:50, 10 Dec 2009 (UTC)
And ditto on maintaining respect during arguments. We need more of that here; though sometimes I think that could be a pipe dream. Equazcion (talk) 23:52, 10 Dec 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for caring

I'd just like to thank you for involving yourself in the discussion surrounding what now looks like Ottava Rima's inevitable ban, and extending a helping hand to Ottava. I'm frankly horrified at some of the proposed motions, and what seems to me to be the dishonesty underpinning their justification, but that's another story. As everyone knows, bans are completely unenforceable anyway, and only affect principled editors, those who will not simply return under a new name, as many others would do. --Malleus Fatuorum 18:20, 16 December 2009 (UTC)

wow .. I'm not sure what to say here. Thank you Mal. I do value those kind and encouraging words - because I realize that they don't come lightly. I am sorely tempted to blubber on, but it would not do justice to what you say - so I'll just say "Thank you". Cheers and all my best. — Ched :  ?  20:21, 16 December 2009 (UTC)

WP:Update/3

Note the redness of the link. You've expressed interest in doing something at Update, and this might be a good time to step in, because I'm going to stop tracking the Conduct policies at WP:Update/1 starting in January. (Watchlisting). - Dank (push to talk) 13:51, 18 December 2009 (UTC)

P.S. and Enforcement. - Dank (push to talk) 15:34, 20 December 2009 (UTC)
One more thing ... trying to figure out where to put stuff. WP:Update/1 has reports twice a month, and I don't use the last version of the month if it doesn't seem to me to have consensus. WP:Update/2 has reports at the end of the month, always using the last version. Which style appeals to you more? If the latter, then I'll go ahead and move the conduct policies to WP:Update/2 (I've done the mid-month reports already). - Dank (push to talk) 15:57, 22 December 2009 (UTC)

Copyedit request

Would you copyedit David Pearson? I just posted a complete rewrite to the article and I nominated it for both Did You Know and Good Article. It will be my 100th DYK (includes my work plus nominations)! Thank you!

I hope you are doing good. I am, and I'm looking forward to Christmas. My ISP has canceled service for my area, so I'm forced to find another. I had already been looking, so that's a good thing. My options are very limited since almost no one can get a good signal in my (rural) area (I explored about 7 options!). DSL is not an option except in nearby cities. I think I found one that has a signal originating on city water tower less than 5 miles away; they're coming out on December 31st for installation. I have the option of canceling if they can't find a good signal. If that doesn't work, I'm going to a satellite provider. Satellite will take time to arrange, so there's a chance that I'll have no internet starting December 31st. As usual, please respond here on your talk page to keep everything together. Royalbroil 14:04, 19 December 2009 (UTC)

I'd be glad to RB! I'll have a go at it this evening. Very sorry to hear about your ISP woes, and I hope you'll be able to get something resolved with it. All my best holiday wishes to you, and hope you're back to running on all 8 cylinders ASAP. :) — Ched :  ?  18:51, 19 December 2009 (UTC)
Thank you for doing the copyedit! My internet has been running like a 2 cylinder putt putt tractor with a corroded battery cable since June or July - they're dropping the signal on Dec 30th. I wasn't able to get my prospective new ISP to install until Dec 31st. This change will be very good for me. My internet has been gone for the evening by 6:00 way too many times. I'd look at my monitor and wonder if they'll ever figure out the problem. No chance for editing Wikipedia or any other internet. So I got good at playing a certain PC game. I wish you a Merry Christmas! Royalbroil 22:17, 19 December 2009 (UTC)
Wow - what a weekend IRL here RB. Sorry I didn't get to it yet, but I will certainly have a go at it very soon. Cheers, best, and Merry Christmas and enjoyable holidays to you. Hope the ISP issues get resolved for you quickly. — Ched :  ?  16:49, 21 December 2009 (UTC)

Gharaibeh

Hey Ched...I just came across the article Gharaibeh, which when I found it may just have been one of the most amazingly messed up articles I've ever stumbled across, both formatting- and content-wise. These are the edits I made to it, and was wondering if you might care to have a go at it as well! Muahaha. — Huntster (t @ c) 12:43, 21 December 2009 (UTC)

mmm ... looks like an intriguing challenge - I accept. It will have to wait a couple days, and I do have to get to the David Pearson article first - but I'll certainly take a shot at it. It's not a topic I know anything about at the moment, but I look forward to learning about them. Thanks for a great item to work on Huntster - I'll get to it ASAP (holidays, work, etc. and all). Cheers buddy. — Ched :  ?  16:47, 21 December 2009 (UTC)

Motorsport help needed

I bet you're a fan expert in this area like me! I'm working on an article for SpeedWeek (the ESPN program) in my 2nd sandbox. Do you have an references for it? It was a great show and I watched it whenever I could. That show was a big part with why I have such a broad background and interest in working on oddball racing topics. I find TONS of references to the show in blogs and forums, but reliable sources are weak. I hope you are doing well. My new ISP should be installing tomorrow (Thursday) morning and I'm very excited about it. Royalbroil 04:26, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

Hey there RB - I'll take a look as soon as possible for some refs for that. Still would like to finish up the Pearson article too for smoothing things out a bit, work on some of the sentence stubs and all. Great refs there though - should get through GA without too much problem - may even be FA down the road some day. Anyway - I'll see what I can find for Speedweek ASAP. Hope the new year is starting well for you Cheers and best buddy. :-) — Ched :  ?  17:45, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

Hey Huntster - my very best wishes to you as well buddy!!! Yep - been extremely busy lately; seems I have all the work I could ever want - and some that I wish I could afford to tell to take it elsewhere ... lol. Win7 seems to be popular these days, and folks trying to salvage old equipment for one more year as well. I prolly shouldn't complain - but it leaves me but a few moments to read through WP to keep up with what's going on - and NO time to do any quality editing lately. Actually I did have (quite) a few drinks at home on New Years Eve, but other than that - time just hasn't allowed me to enjoy the fruits of "buzzdom" like one would hope. 8-) .... anyway - I suspect things will slow for me here shortly - perhaps after the DC meetup I can get back to actually contributing productively to the project (one can hope anyway). Hope to be back at you here shortly my friend, and I hope the new year treats you very kindly. Cheers and as always - BEST, — Ched :  ?  17:31, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

Community de-Adminship - finalization poll for the CDA proposal

After tolling up the votes in the revision proposals, it emerged that 5.4 had the most support, but elements of that support remained unclear, and various comments throughout the polls needed consideration.

A finalisation poll (intended, if possible, to be one last poll before finalising the CDA proposal) has been run to;

  • gather opinion on the 'consensus margin' (what percentages, if any, have the most support) and
  • ascertain whether there is support for a 'two-phase' poll at the eventual RfC (not far off now), where CDA will finally be put to the community.

Proposed deletion of Immaculate Conception Ukrainian Catholic Schools

The article Immaculate Conception Ukrainian Catholic Schools has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

no evidence

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

AfD nomination of Steve Titus

An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Steve Titus. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Wikipedia:Notability and "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Steve Titus (2nd nomination). Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:12, 17 February 2010 (UTC)

The RfC on the Community de-Adminship proposal has begun

The RfC on the Community de-Adminship proposal was started on the 22nd Feb, and it runs for 28 days. Please note that the existing CDA proposal was (in the end) run as something of a working compromise, so CDA is still largely being floated as an idea.

Also note that, although the RfC is in 'poll format' (Support, Oppose, and Neutral, with Comments underneath), this RfC is still essentially a 'Request for Comment'. Currently, similar comments on CDA's value are being made under all three polls.

Whatever you vote, your vote is welcome!

A quick question

Hello, I've come to you because I know VERY little about Wikipedia and I've noticed you've edited the talk page of an article I have a question about multiple times (and you happen to be an administrator...).

I'm related to Ann B. Davis, and I've noticed her birth-date is incorrect (as well as a few other minor details). I'm going to go out on a limb and say "Because she told me so." is not a valid reference... How would I resolve the issue without having to ask her to scan her birth certificate...

Thank you for your help —Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.18.234.15 (talk) 06:18, 31 May 2010 (UTC)

Ched is inactive, so I'll answer for him. You're trying to disprove something that appears to be proven since it has a source. You need to find a reliable source which contains the correct birth date. You'll have much easier time if the source is online. Saying that you have the birth certificate wouldn't even work and neither would saying that you're a relative (I would being lying but I could "say" the same thing). Good luck! Royalbroil 00:03, 1 June 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for keeping an eye open Royalbroil. I'm not sure why I first edited Ms. Davis' page, most likely that it was a vandalism revert some time ago - (no, I'm not related to that Davis family), and RB's advice is accurate as he is much more up to date on the proper links and pages than I am at the moment.

Hey

Hey Ched. I don't know if you remember me but it's me Nosebutton. Just dropping by. It's been a LONG time since I've been on here. How's it been? I know Wiki isn't facebook or anything like that but this is the only place I know you are so sorry if you think I'm just spam. :)

WikiXDC: Wikipedia 10th Birthday!

National Archives and Records Administration (NARA)

You are invited to WikiXDC, a special meetup event and celebration on Saturday, January 22 hosted by the National Archives and Records Administration in downtown Washington, D.C.

  • Location: National Archives and Records Administration (NARA), downtown building, Pennsylvania Avenue & 7th St NW.
  • Description: There will be a behind-the-scenes tour of the National Archives and you will learn more about what NARA does. We will also have a mini-film screening featuring FedFlix videos along with a special message from Jimmy Wales. In the afternoon, there will be lightning talks by Wikimedians (signup to speak), wiki-trivia, and cupcakes to celebrate!
  • Details & RSVP: Details about the event are on our Washington, DC tenwiki page.
