Please refrain from discussing me on IRC in future, I regard all logs mentioning my name to be completely fair game and my own property. Giano (talk) 18:22, 31 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- It appears you missed the sarcasm and irony of my comments, but oh well. By the way, they aren't your own property, as I maintain copyright over everything I say in there. So they are not "your property". Daniel (talk) 10:02, 1 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Well let's hope you never cause me to put that to the test, in the meantine stop gossiping about those that are trying to write this project. Giano (talk) 10:23, 1 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Just a courtesy note – you are being discussed at WP:ANI#IRC#Admins' Abuse. - Rjd0060 (talk) 23:34, 1 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I've just had a look at this and frankly I am disgusted. You have the temerity to officiate at this and remove some of my statement with a pompous reason that it was against the rules - which prompted me to take no part and then I discover you are considerably worse than even my biggest enemies would say I was ... I presume now that your true character has been outed you will ask for my case to be reconsidered? Abtract (talk) 00:01, 2 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- "I presume now that your true character has been outed" Funnily enough, I always thought civility was a policy on Wikipedia. —Dark talk 06:31, 6 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Yep. It seemed you missed it though... —Dark talk 07:28, 10 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Did you understand the back story before making your point? If it was important you'd better make it in plain English cos I am a bit thick. 18:42, 10 November 2008 (UTC)~~
- I know the back story perfectly well thanks. As for my point, I did make it in plain English. —Dark talk 06:39, 11 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- I suggest not continuing this conversation. Inter-fighting is a waste of everybody's time. AGK 07:37, 11 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Apologies; especially since I agree that civility is a policy and one which I adhere to. Abtract (talk) 19:06, 11 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding your IRC Block and its conditions, please be aware that I do not want an apology, it would stick in your throat and cause bile in mine. I would imagine being banned form #Admins is more of a holiday than a sanction, but I expect on past form the sanction will be minutes rather than days or weeks. Funnily enough, I don't really blame you, you must see so much such behaviour there I expect you thought it was the acceptable norm. The people I blame are the channels leaders, the FT2s of this world who when appointed by the Arbcom to investigate the deplorable state of affairs that exists there. Yet having carried out this investigation, in February, assured us all that the channel was properly regulated. It is not regulated at all. If it was this painful situation would not have arisen. We have an Arbcom comprised of #Admins asking other senior #Admins to investigate it and report their findings. It was always going to be whitewash and stitch up, and as usual it is the community who pays the price. Giano (talk) 13:39, 4 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you uploading this, image. However because of planned licensing changes in Wikipedia, it would be appreciated if you could consider dual licensing the image under the terms of the GFDL 1.3 and CC-BY-SA 3.0 license.
As on OTRS ticket exists for the image concerned it should not be hard to contact the original copyright holder, to request a change in the licensing.
Dual-licensing assists those wishing to make use of images and media on other WMFprojects, and off wiki. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 12:46, 5 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Daniel, could you please have a look at your otrs-wiki user page? Work is waiting or you ;) --Lyzzy (talk) 19:38, 5 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Whilst it's quite likely you'll have heard this news on the grapevine, in your email inbox, or even in person - I thought that it was sufficiently exciting to warrant giving each of you a 'new messages' orange bar! This particular orange bar has been brought to you to let you know that Wikimedia Australia is now open for members!
I'm not on the committee or anything, and that's where the credit is due in getting everything to this point, but I think it would be absolutely fantastic for folks who wish to support the australian wiki community, to go ahead and sign up - we're quite likely to be the world's fatest growing chapter at the moment! Join Us :-)
Here's a little more about membership, and the mailing list in particular is well worth signing up to as well, and is a good forum to get answers to any questions answered, or to share any ideas. I've dropped these notes in under my own steam, and you've received one because you're on this list - feel free to ask me any questions, or anything - I can certainly point you in the right direction :-) cheers all, Privatemusings (talk) 04:04, 13 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Daniel, I've sent you a Email. SteelersFan94 06:25, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Daniel, I just wanted to inform you of an interesting article : Bjørn Sagvolden. And, have a nice day. E92f+ (talk) 22:46, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Because the Signpost hasn't been sent in a while, to save space, I've condensed all seven issues that were not sent into this archive. Only the three issues from November are below.

You are receiving this message because you have signed up for the Signpost spamlist. If you wish to stop receiving these messages, simply remove your name from the list. Ralbot (talk) 10:38, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I see you blanked one, are you going to do the other one and the two MfDs? As someone who has been regularly playing whack a mole from his socks who made a mess of my user page, I'd apreciate someone looking at the SSP and blocking as appropriate. I also think whichever sock requested the blanking should be added to the report. Thanks. StarM 13:01, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
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 (talk) 00:46, 28 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, sorry. I had just got home and my mind was on something else. Thanks for letting me know. Burner0718 Wutsapnin? 04:09, 1 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Daniel. Per last year, we are now closing in on another milestone for AUS, with 178 current GAs. Well, since you participated in the GA drive last year, this is another rallying cry to WP:AWNB/A. YellowMonkey (bananabucket) 03:48, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sometimes you have to apply WP:IAR. The information here is exceptionally valuable in the context of the page, to show how the largest number of people in the UK will have been exposed to the story. Jheald (talk) 12:32, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- IAR doesn't overrule the Foundation's fair use licensing resolution, sorry. The Foundation is sovereign even above any Wikipedia policy, including ignore all rules. It clearly defines the limits as "articles". Daniel (talk) 12:34, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the very quick change to that last comment - and for your work for OTRS too. I didn't mean to sound picky about flaunt/flout but I now see it would have come across that way so I am sorry for that too. I hope you get a good night's rest, best wishes, DuncanHill (talk) 13:23, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm a bit over all this to be honest - although submitting a complaint about Amazon's hosting with an angry message about consistency was a highlight :) Daniel (talk) 13:24, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks again - I do really appreciate what you have been doing, it's hugely encouraging to see that others care so much. DuncanHill (talk) 13:27, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Daniel - Something interesting has come to my attention about this one. Have you done a google search on the names involved in that OTRS ticket? There is a possible COI concern here; this probably requires some more indepth research. In the interests of confidentiality of the OTRS system, I hesitate to say more on your page; however, some alarm bells are going off here. Feel free email me if you require more detail or are having difficulty finding what I am talking about. Risker (talk) 16:38, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Heh, the decision by oversight was to go through and oversight the edits due to the compelling case presented in the OTRS ticket. Daniel (talk) 00:56, 9 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Very nice, we've solved the problem today. Will we hammer down on the next editor who happens to notice that there's an "error" in the list a few months from now? The other name is well publicised, unfortunately, in both online and hard copy, so someone at some time is bound to notice the discrepancy and try to re-add the other name. Sad part is that this only comes to pass when his book is published under his "new" name; it doesn't seem to have been an issue until then, but in fact makes it more likely that someone's going to start digging and wondering why our list doesn't match the gold-standard reference source. It's a solution, but it's one that is impermanent at best. Risker (talk) 01:48, 9 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Indeed, it's not a 100% perfect solution, but it'll have to do. Oversight people and OTRS volunteers are watching the page and will deal with any readditions as they come in a measured and AGF manner. Daniel (talk) 03:01, 9 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Daniel, regarding this archiving edit. In the clerks area, Tznkai had said that the request was on hold pending clarification of who was in control of the account. It looked like no arbitrators had weighed in since Thatcher posted his note confirming that the account had, at the time of his check, been compromised. Did you receive other guidance about this that prompted you to archive the request? Avruch T 17:12, 10 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Yes, see Durova's last comment in her section, one hour after Tznkai's comment. Daniel (talk) 23:46, 10 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Daniel,
I do not clearly understand why you have deleted my article regarding the Gueroust Family.
I am on descendent of the de Gueroust Family and I Know very well my proven genealogy.
It is why I am convinced the Dona Concepcion Heredia Rosa story is a joke.
