Thanks for closing this so quickly. I was going to stop before even the voting started, but my connection is too slow this morning. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 03:45, 11 December 2011 (UTC)

No problem. GFOLEY FOUR!03:45, 11 December 2011 (UTC)

Please

Gfoley4 can you please let me be an admin because you closed my RFA --AwesomeSponge (talk) 12:34, 11 December 2011 (UTC)--AwesomeSponge (talk) 12:34, 11 December 2011 (UTC)

No, he cannot. He closed your RFA because you are so inexperienced at this time that it was failing and would have failed. You must go and gain a significant amount (at least 3 months) of experience editing Wikipedia before you would have a chance at passing RFA. Only if you gain experience and pass RFA, will you be made an administrator. MBisanz talk 15:23, 11 December 2011 (UTC)

But i dont know how to gain experiance and pass rfa--AwesomeSponge (talk) 01:54, 12 December 2011 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) Here are two links to help you get started... Wikipedia:Introduction and User:WLU's Broad Overview for newbies. Those should help you! Acps110 (talkcontribs) 02:01, 12 December 2011 (UTC)
AwesomeSponge, I would recommend you to stay away from adminship until you have much more experience, please. Wikipedia is not like Wikia or any other wikis; only editors with sufficient knowledge of Wikipedia's policies and those who have at least a year of experience will be promoted to administrator, not via a request such as "please let me be an admin I promise I will be helpful!". (There are no requirements for being an administrator, but editors with less than three months and 2,000 non-automated edits of experience are guaranteed to fail and are closed prematurely per WP:SNOW/WP:NOTNOW.) Actions by an administrator affect the entire site, and 10 edits is nowhere near ready. Wikipedia appreciates your enthusiasm, so please continue to edit and try again in the near future! --Bryce (talk | contribs) 07:30, 12 December 2011 (UTC)

Aberdeen (B&O station)

Due to the obvious disambiguation, don't you think you should name your proposed article Aberdeen (B&O station)? ----DanTD (talk) 05:37, 13 December 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, that's what I was planning to do. GFOLEY FOUR!22:22, 13 December 2011 (UTC)

LS&MS Station List

Regarding the station list for the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern Railway; Are you sure a contemporary station like Cleveland Lakefront Station belongs on this list? ----DanTD (talk) 16:26, 18 December 2011 (UTC)

Yeah – changed to Cleveland Union Terminal. GFOLEY FOUR!16:31, 18 December 2011 (UTC)

BLP policy

Hi - I noticed you made this addition to a BLP - can you please explain within wikipedia policy why you made this addition. Youreallycan (talk) 20:09, 24 December 2011 (UTC)

That was all my fault. I reverted the edit as vandalism using a program called WP:HUGGLE. As I'm new to the program, I then clicked another button and accidentally undid that edit. Sorry for the mistake. GFOLEY FOUR!20:13, 24 December 2011 (UTC)
Ah OK , no worries, good to know it was in error. The automated vandal assistants are on the surface beneficial but do to have a bit of a sensitive trigger. Regards. Youreallycan (talk) 20:43, 24 December 2011 (UTC)

Please can you help me for the article Aleksandër Moisiu University? I study at this university and the name is Aleksandër not Aleksander (with ë in albanian language). Friendly Irvi Hyka (talkcontribs) 02:46, 25 December 2011 (UTC)

Okay, I've moved it to your preferred title. GFOLEY FOUR!01:51, 25 December 2011 (UTC)
Thanks! Irvi Hyka (talkcontribs) 12:50, 25 December 2011 (UTC)

Merry Christmas!

Christmas, Michigan, is a small town along M-28 in the Upper Peninsula Merry Christmas
