I've nominated my first article for deletion, and owe it all to you. Misery (Australian band) has been nominated for deletion. I am looking forward to eliminating more good qaulity, useful, and valuable information. Stay the course. Nanabozho03:09, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
Hey man, thanks for the barnstar, you're awesome! Thanks also for hitting my editor review. :) Am I allowed to reply to things there, or should I reply here on your talk page? Thanks again! GlassCobra (Review) 13:57, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
Hi. I wanted to talk to you about this edit. Album covers are not fair use in band articles, no matter what the captions say. This is a breach of our rules on non-free images. I am disappointed in you for restoring the bad edit, and particularly with the rude edit summary you used. I'd be interested in what extra meaning you feel the little Australia flag adds to the article, beyond what Australia already tells us, seeing you restored that too.
And Myspace, you restored that too; do you feel the link to Myspace is important to readers of this article? Please see WP:EL, assuming you aren't familiar with it. Well done at least for not restoring the trivia. --John14:26, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Logo qa.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Chris B • talk16:29, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

Thanks, October 2007! Thank you for voicing your opinion in my RfA, which passed today with a unanimous 79/0/0 tally. It feels great to be appreciated, and I will try my best to meet everyone's expectations. If you have any advice or tips, feel free to pass them along, as I am sure that I will need them!

I, Spebi, award Dihydrogen Monoxide (whom I like to call, Diggy) this Australian Barnstar of National Merit in the form of an infobox for his absolutely outstanding and extremely helpful work on the now featured List of Powderfinger awards. I look forward to collaborating with you in the future. ~ Sebi[talk]05:09, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

Yes, that would be Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria #3: "As few non-free content uses as possible are included in each article and in Wikipedia as a whole. Multiple items are not used if one will suffice; one is used only if necessary." Although I see you've tried to legitimise departing from this guideline in your rationale here, for example, any time it has ever been previously discussed, the consensus has been that album covers are fair use in the article on the album only. Not in the band article, not in the discography article, as some have tried to maintain. See also Wikipedia:WikiProject Music/MUSTARD#Images and notation: "The {{album cover}} tag establishes fair use only in an article about the album in question." --John15:06, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
I'm glad you're felling better. Congrats on the Featured... everything! Mes sincères salutations, (I bet you didn't know that one :D) Agüeybaná20:26, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
I would like to thank you for your participation in my successful RfA, which passed with a tally of (44/10/5)[1]. Whether you supported, opposed or were neutral in my RfA, I appreciate your participation and I hope that we can continue to work together to build a stronger and better Wikipedia.
Thanks for the support! :) Don't worry about missing both my RfAs; two other users have commented about missing my second RfA, so don't feel left out or anything. :) 104/1/1 in my second RfA was definitely a surprise. :) Regarding your recent RfA, I do hope that you'll listen to concerns listed there, and try again (hopefully with nominators!) in a few months time. I'll be supporting for the fourth time in a row. :) Again, thanks. Acalamari16:29, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

I just want to thank you once more for supporting my RfA, which passed 63 to 1. Your comments at the RfA were so kind. Thanks again, and I hope to do my best. Hopefully, you'll get the mop, too, sooner or later. Bearian01:39, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
Could you take a look at the first section's code? I copied it from the Powderfinger thing but it's not working. (And I spent ages finding all of those nominations...:P) Love, Neranei(talk)03:06, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
Heh, now that I know what I'm doing...Man those references are scattered all over the web! Thank you so much for your help. I'm working on Item 2 of your oppose. Love, Neranei(talk)03:18, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
Sorry to step on your toes (I have a bad habit of doing that). I saw what needed fixing and did it (plus removed the dick clark info). --lincalinca03:17, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

Wondering if you can help me, I'm asking as you live in Brisbane - what would a Brisbane person see as the key suburban centres in the metropolitan area? I've got Redcliffe, Strathpine, Ipswich, Capalaba, Cleveland and Beenleigh, and of course Brisbane CBD, but looking for others, especially in the Brisbane City Council area. (Note this is for an offline project so I'm not that worried about WP:RS) Cheers Orderinchaos16:44, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
Hey H20, good to hear from you. Yeah I've been very busy with other things lately. Haven't had too much time lately to edit wikipedia. But I check it regularly to see what's been happening. Did you notice that Process This has a deletion notice? Hopefully we'll get those 2 articles at FA. Slabba23:06, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
I dunno, I guess there really isn't much info on it though, but it does tie it all together having a page for all of the songs from that album. Also, I'm not sure if I like the "cut-down" version of the Powderfinger template that User:John has made without a list of all songs. Maybe we'll have to create a new page with other Powderfinger links otherwise you'll never be able to find those pages, if you get my drift. Because songs like These Days (Powderfinger song) are important imo. Slabba03:46, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
Good work, I just noticed that he flagged a few other songs for deletion i.e. Sink Low and Belter. I dunno what we should do re. this, they're not really notable in any way I guess Slabba03:58, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
I've just had a look at Young Modern and made a few changes. Mainly the track listing table, and a few grammar and ref changes. I reckon you will need to read through it and add some more refs throughout. As there are some points that need backing up. Slabba04:24, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

If nothing else in this nomination has given you any reason to support Nick, in your eyes, I at least urge you to consider the fact that we really, really, need more admins willing to edit naked.

Thank you for supporting my RfA, which unfortunately didn't succeed. The majority of the opposes stated that I needed more experience in the main namespace and Wikipedia namespace, so that is what I will do. I will go for another RfA in two month's time and I hope you will be able to support me then as well. If you have any other comments for me or wish to be notified when I go for another RfA, please leave them on my talk page. If you wish to nominate me for my next RfA, please wait until it has been two months. Thanks again for participating in my RfA! -- Cobi(t|c|b|cn)01:49, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
I am sorry we disagreed recently about fair use of album covers in band articles. Even though I disagreed with you, some of the points you made have (slightly) changed my thinking on the subject. I thought you might be interested in this discussion, and I have referred there to our debate at Talk:Powderfinger. I hope that by discussing the matter centrally we may come to a better project-wide consensus about this issue, to avoid it being discussed again and again in the future by people who would probably rather be improving the encyclopedia. Best wishes, --John05:10, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
Sorry Dihydrogen Monoxide, I should have responded earlier. Anyway, I don't think the article would qualify for GA at the moment; there's still some things that need sourcing and tidying up. I haven't worked on the article to get it to GA; I was just doing it to improve it overall. :) Fortunately, there are no edit wars on the page. If you can help source and improve the article and bring it to a GA, by all means: it'll be appreciated. However, I won't be doing much on the article for the next few days, as I won't be very active. Thanks. Acalamari01:41, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
I was just popping around to notify you of your newsletter delivery using my bot, ENewsBot. I haven't delivered any newsletters since July (as far as I recall) and was wondering whether you wish to continue the newsletter deliveries.
Yo, DHMO. Not sure if you struck yourself out here or not, but thought I should point it out to you. I'm cleaning the list up at the moment. I can rename or just remove your listing if you want, just let me know. Cheers, Into The FrayT/C21:19, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

Just dropping by in a totally random and non pressurised kind way to say thanks for the comment on my talk page ;-) Seriously though, it means a lot.

It'd be awesome to get Powderfinger to featured, but I think it's got a long way to go yet.

The standards and dedication of the English Wikipeidan Administrators is excellent and I am privileged to stand among them. Thankyou for putting you trust in me, I'll not see it abused.

Hey man, can I get you to do me a favour? Can you run Giggabot to update all occurrences of WP:RAD that occur within a piped link to be converted into User:Lincalinca (my user page). I have been using it for ages, but it's just been pulled down, but temporarily reinstated to allow me to update, and you're the only one I know (other than Jogers) who has a bot (and I know you better than I know him).

When do you plan to expand the page??? I have been thinking of expanding it for quite some time and wanting to get it to GA. By the way, I did add the personnel section to the article. RaNdOm2613:36, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
Sometime soon? When?! Hmm, Been busy at the moment. but I might want to start research in 2 weeks time. And I scrapped by page, didn't like it. RaNdOm2613:42, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
Reply to Adminship question
Hi there. I responded on my own talk page, but figured I'd reply here as well. Thank you for considering me for an RfA! I'm definitely interested. I referenced User:Andrevan as having expressed interest in nominating me once before, but at that time I'd recently been in a dispute with another user that didn't go so well, so I figured it would be best to wait a little while. That's passed now.
(sigh) I find it discouraging that I'm getting quite a bit of opposition based solely on my answer to the first question and my level of "experience". It seems that, once again, quantity of edits is more important than quality. If it goes on like this much more, I may consider asking to have the RfA withdrawn, because as one person pointed out, "it has a slim chance of succeeding". :( — KieferSkunk (talk) — 21:58, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

Thank you so much for that shiny barnstar! \o/ Hey, I'm going to start on a new project, since Eddie's gone, do you wanna help? You're so much more experienced than I am. Hope all's well Down Under! Love, Neranei(talk)23:50, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
Wow, you've done heaps there. I don't really know what I could add to it. I lost my CD of Transfusion years ago when moving (I lived in one place for 9 years, then 9 places in one year, so it's probably still at one of those places). I think most important would be to add the track times, but I'd only be guessing. "Reap What You Sow" is the best song on the EP, hands down, but opinion isn't what you're after. I'll see what I can scratch up, though. --lincalinca00:57, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
I've done some work on it: I found track lengths, production teams and most importantly, the release date. I need to double-check the track length for the last track, because it may have been picking up the track length from the wrong track. Right now I'm working on a chart table too, so it looks more like a real album page, though it's really pretty much there now. --lincalinca05:27, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

I've just done some re-vamping on the side projects page (it pretty much looks like a user page or the main page, now) but it was just like putting 4 little stub-leads into one article. So I've laid them out so it doesn't actually look like that's what it is. Because this is somewhat unprecedented, there's not really a basis for us to work from, but we should really try to decide what we want to achieve with the page. By this I mean, do we want it to be an exhaustive article going into all of the side-projects in and outs, or do we want to leave it all stubby? --lincalinca10:22, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
Guess what?
I just got a new cd. And it's an old CD. Sadly it has not case, sleeve or anything, but musically, it's damn sweet. I wonder if it'd be appropriate to put one of the songs from the Blue EP on its article as a sample? This EP is great: it's just like Double Allergic, and to me, that's their best stuff, even now. --lincalinca13:29, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
I can't be bothered to create a new header, so this will just do. Remember that DVD that had 11 of the band's videos? I think it was included on Dream Days or something... perhaps the sleeve of that DVD had some notes about directors and production companies of the music videos themselves. ~ Sebi09:49, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

I would like to say once again, thank you for voting and I hope to see you at my next request be it a nomination or self-induced, I hope I don't get as many questions!
I've just renamed Template:Architecture to Template:WikiProject Architecture so it's in line with similar templates, but it appears I can no longer do autosaves in AutoWikiBrowser (they seem to be restricted to bots). A real pain since that would mean renaming the lot of them with manual confirmation - all 8000 of them. Any chance Giggabot could jump in and help me out? If not, do you know a bot that can help me? - Mgm|(talk)18:19, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
Wikipedia has a second Carlos admin

My dear Wikipedian Giggy/Archive,
Thank you for your participation in my RFA, which closed successfully with 29 supports, 1 opposed, and 3 neutral. No matter if you !voted support, oppose, neutral, or even if you just stopped by to make a comment, I thank you for taking the time to drop by. Since I am a new admin, if you have any suggestions or concerns, feel free to inform me of them. Special thanks to Carlossuarez46 for encourage me and nomination. Thank you and good day.
Is something like this what you had in mind when you were saying how ugly that portal was? I agreed. I haven't touched the content, just changed teh colours and fixed the layout (someone broke it, it seems). If there's an MCR portal, why don't we have a Powderfinger portal? --lincalinca12:30, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for the Review!
Dear Dihydrogen Monoxide, Thank you for your participation in providing me with a critique in my recent editor's review, archived here. I read and take each person's comments very seriously, whether or not the content is critical or praiseworthy. I look forward to working with you in future Wikipedia projects. -- Miranda
WikiProject tagging
Like NeraBot, I'd like to run a WikiProject tagging bot (basically a copy of Giggabot). Can I have the xml settings files you mentioned in his approval request as well? I tend to hang out at backwater articles about obscure topics, so I might come across articles that need project tagging that other people might not come across. - Mgm|(talk)21:37, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
Whenever I open it, it says that "AWB has stopped working." and closes the program. It's been doing this since the first time I ran my bot. Love, Neranei(talk)16:12, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
Smile!
Politics rule has smiled at you! Smiles promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better. Spread the WikiLove by smiling at someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Happy editing! Smile at others by adding {{subst:Smile}} to their talk page with a friendly message.
Not a lot actually... winter is settling in... currently 35 degrees and freezing my butt off. College, work, etc. How's the ol' Giggy? :) Jmlk1708:11, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
You said "I'd like to point out that you said that my comments in that debate had, to some extent, changed your thinking. Yet my comments went as far against the fair use policy as Linc's, if we're going to look at it that way. Did they change your thinking, or are you just ignoring that now?"
I want to respond, but I don't think that the RfA page is the best place to do it. Your comments did indeed change my thinking very slightly, as you made good arguments (I thought) about the images themselves being potentially notable if, for example, they had won awards as images, especially if the band could be shown to have had a major input into the creation of the images. At this point, I think it does become arguably a reasonable fair use of the image. Had we been unable to find free images to illustrate the article, I might have supported the inclusion of one or two of the covers in the article. As it happens we were able to find free images and I genuinely think the article looks better all round that way. The best illustration of a band is images of the band, not their record sleeves, and free images always trump fair. But to that one extent you did change my thinking on the subject, something I think I thanked you for, and I thank you again.
You are quite right to acknowledge that your and Linca's side of that discussion probably contradicted the spirit of the policy though. If you were running for admin at the moment, and I didn't see many admin-type edits from you (I haven't reviewed your contributions in this case, as you are not), I would probably weak-oppose too. Absolutely nothing personal about it, but I could not support sysoping someone who was arguing against policy just a few weeks ago. This alone would not make me oppose, it would probably be neutral as I do see evidence of, as the applicant says, having 'got it', but combined with the absence of evidence with familiarity with the nitty-gritty nature of admin work it makes me regretfully oppose. No prejudice against standing again when a little time has passed and the user has demonstrated good understanding of policy. No offence to either of you, as I know you do good work here.
Sorry to trouble you, but I noticed that you made some excellent input to the Peer Review of Manchester, and I was wondering if you had the time to take a look at another "town" Peer Review? It's been up for a while but I've not had any comments - if you could lend your expertise it would be much appreciated!
Many thanks for your very helpful and useful comments, I've actioned them where I can, and will see about putting the article up for GAC later today or tomorrow. I will of course notify you as and when I put it up for FAC too....... ChrisTheDude08:44, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
Hi my man, sorry I've been well busy in RL so I've been a bit slow on wiki recently - hope to fix that soon! You good? Pedro : Chat 20:17, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
Encyclopedia building? No hope. I spend most of my time at CAT:CSD either eliminating dross or removing eroneous tags. It's incredible what some people think falls under Speedy Criteria. I have a personal mission to try and keep CSD clear - fat chance!! Pedro : Chat 08:08, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
Would you be able to dig up some old band newsletters around the time of the hiatus? There isn't any source attached to claims about the hiatus, and Jon Coghill's time off to start a family claims. I'm pretty sure that they are true, and that whoever added it had read a newsletter or some report, etc, but we still need that source. And thanks for your co-operation on that bolding issue... sorry... and a late congratulations for the 3 DYKs you and Linca created :) Kudos — Sebi09:17, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
I'm reluctant to revert again, but in the Singles part of the Discography section, I chose one single from each year... I hope that's not such a problem, and that the Singles can be included again. ~ Sebi09:09, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
