User talk:I64s/Archive 2

This is the archive of my talk page. Please do not post any new messages here, instead post it on my talkpage. Thanks. Moshedayan Thank you for addressing me, I appreciate it. Do direct your posting to the appropriate user, this I would appreciate greater. ArbCom Terence, I voted 'support' for a 15 year old, but I really do think that 13 is too young. From my interraction with you today I can tell that you are an intelligent and diligent editor, but being on ArbCom is like being judge and jury and imho (and in the opinion of most others) is a job for an adult. Perhaps you should try again in a year or two. I think ArbCom seems like a pretty horrible job anyway! :) --kingboyk 18:53, 9 January 2006 (UTC) Thank you Francs2000's Bureaucratship Thanks for your support on my request for bureaucratship. The final outcome was (70/5/0), so I am now a bureaucrat. I seriously didn't expect so many good comments from everybody and I appreciated the constructive criticism from those that gave it. If you have any queries, suggestions or problems with any of my actions as a bureaucrat then please leave me a note. -- Francs2000 21:55, 9 January 2006 (UTC) Hey man,I need to know much. I am creating a user page for myself and want to know how I can get images from outside and keep them on my user page. Also,while editing,how can you change an image into a new one from your saved pictures on your computer.Batzarro 16:07, 10 January 2006 (UTC) Arbcom candidate userbox Greetings. I've made a new userbox for arbcom candidates to show on their userpages so that visiters will know they're running. {{User arbcom nom}} If you'd like to place it on your userpage, feel free.

The current task is to classify the articles in as many Commons gallery as possible where such photos are applicable and provide encyclopedic information. This gallery is a good example for your reference on how this task is done. Thanks once again! - Mailer Diablo 11:50, 14 January 2006 (UTC) Thanks Thanks. WikiThanks. I would like to express my thanks to all the good people who spent their valuable time time and effort working on my (failed) RfA voting. Especially for those who actually voted to support me :). Lets move on and make together our Wikipedia an even greater place abakharev 09:27, 12 January 2006 (UTC) My RfA Thank you for your support! I have decided to withdraw my nomination, due to growing oppose votes due to my lack of experence (and because I have userboxes on my page?). I will now aim to continue, and broadern my scope from userboxes. I will accept a nomination, should one be made, in 1-2 months. Ian13ID:540053 18:17, 12 January 2006 (UTC) My RfA Terenceong1992, thank you very much for supporting me during my recent RfA campaign! Thanks to you, I am now an admin.

As this IP is used by many a number of active Singapore Wikipedians, this is shared and a block for three hours will cause a halt to editing. Could a sysop kindly unblock this IP? Thank you. --Terence Ong Talk 10:34, 13 January 2006 (UTC) HELP On my user page,i added new boxes. I cannot make these userboxes for others to see.

KillerChihuahua?!? 17:13, 14 January 2006 (UTC) My RfA I don't have a fancy layout like other new admins, but I just want to thank you for your support at my RfA. It passed 48/3/1, so I have officially been promoted. I hope I won't let you down. If I'm not doing something properly, please tell me. Aecis Mr. Mojo risin' 21:06, 14 January 2006 (UTC) Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jet2.net I refer to the Afd mentioned above, where you voted Speedy Delete with the reason "Spam". However, "Spam" is not currently a criterion for speedy deletion. Please clarify which of the criteria you think it meets, or adjust your vote. Stifle 00:51, 15 January 2006 (UTC) Re : Transwiki photos Hi Terence, Manually. The same process goes for myself, too. :( It'd be good to start from the bottom of Sengkang's gallery, so to avoid any duplication just in case. ;) - Cheers, Mailer Diablo 04:56, 15 January 2006 (UTC) RFA thanks Thanks for supporting me in my RFA. --TimPope 13:48, 15 January 2006 (UTC) AfD We operate by consensus, community decision and (sometimes) common sense, not voting. Almost always anything with less than a 2 to 1 delete to keep ratio doesn't even stand a chance of being deleted, and even then, there are times when admins have chosen to take extenuating circumstances into account. Johnleemk | Talk 14:58, 16 January 2006 (UTC) Re : Barnstar Hi Terence, Thank you for the barnstar! That was greatly appreciated. =D - Cheers, Mailer Diablo 15:14, 16 January 2006 (UTC) Hey, thanks for the Featured Article Medal. I can't help chuckling a bit at a 13 year old awarding a 15 year old Wikipedian a bunch of bits and bytes for article writing, though. Ah, the wonders of the non-age discriminatory internet. :-p Johnleemk | Talk 15:31, 16 January 2006 (UTC) Question forom Janusz Karpinski Hi, this is Janusz Karpinski. I am writing to you because you voted "keep" in AfD for aetherometry entry. The present situation is that by Wikipedia standards there is no reputable secondary literature at all about aetherometry. The minority view is contained only in primary sources, which do not even fulfill Wikipedia standards for scientific references, and there are no other publications, so there is no majority view. "Majority view" here does not mean view of majority of Wikipedia administrators, it means published and generally accepted view of outside scientific community. There is nothing like this for aetherometry. As result, nothing in entry can be verified or referenced, it is all interpretation and opinion. This is not how encyclopedia should work, and is against Wikipedia policy. Since you said that entry should be kept, you must have idea how entry can start to provide verifiable encyclopedic information when there are no existing secondary sources. How can this problem be solved? I think you cannot just say "keep" and leave to others dealing with this problem, which to me seems completely not solvable. Please, describe what your solution is, and how you will personally help make aetherometry entry honest, reputable and verifiable. Sincerely, Janusz. Januszkarp 23:02, 18 January 2006 (UTC) What??? I have to say, great job on WP however using Internet Explorer is a sin in my books :P May I convince you to swap teams to the fox? - Mike Beckham 07:08, 21 January 2006 (UTC) Comment on user page Relax buddy, its meant to be a light-hearted joke. ;) Slivestré ¦ Pfrt ¦ PAve ¦ Dcn ¦ Cntn ¦ Ei ¦ 14:19, 21 January 2006 (UTC) Image licensing This is just a friendly inquiry about a message on http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Mailer_diablo/Terenceong1992. It seems the message speaks for you, saying that you only give permission for your photos to be used on Wikimedia projects, and yet you label them as Creative Commons on Wikimedia Commons. The licenses do not fit. Please see Wikipedia:Image use policy#Free licenses. Thank you. -- Rmrfstar 17:44, 21 January 2006 (UTC) Your restriction on the use of your images does not comply with any free license. Either the restriction must be removed or the images must be not used on Wikipedia. I'm sorry but just because others are wrong does not make what you're doing OK. We're here to build a free encyclopedia and it is well documented in our policy under what licenses images may be hosted. "All images which are for non-commercial only use and by permission only are not acceptable for Wikipedia and _will be deleted_."[1] -- Rmrfstar 13:58, 22 January 2006 (UTC) First of all, I don't know if you can just relicense your images (the GFDL might be more restrictive than CC in some cases). If you were to relicense it, you you grant, "Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License"? or would you be more restrictive? -- Rmrfstar 14:11, 22 January 2006 (UTC) NoSeptember's RfA Thank you, Terence, for your support in my RfA. If you ever need for anything, please contact me. I will do my best in my new role and welcome your feedback. NoSeptember talk 13:21, 22 January 2006 (UTC) Blocked userpage HEy man I need a fave. My userpage is blocked, Can u unblock it? Batzarro 18:05, 23 January 2006 (UTC) I blocked this user's user page, simply because they refuse to comply with Wikipedia Fair Use policy, bullets 7, 8, 9 and especially 2. I plan to unblock after I feel they have made sufficient additions to the actual project itself. -- user:zanimum Thanks Thank you, I64s/Archive 2 for voting in my RFA. It failed with a result of 31/11/2. Here's yet another silly RFA box! If you have any comments, please say so here. batzarrö Hey man can you help me? User:zanimum and his sockpuppet have added fair use images to THEIR user page but vandalised my user page and Batzarro's for doing so. This is the message they leave. Please block them Ferall 05:56, 24 January 2006 (UTC) No need to waste you time on this, Ferall and Batzarro refuse to comply with Wikipedia's clear fair use policies, and thus US law. The situation and Batzarro's numerous sockpuppets are being taken care of. Thanks! -- user:zanimum RfA Thanks Please accept my embarrassingly belated thank you for supporting my RfA, which much to my surprise passed 102/1/1, earning me minor notoriety. I am grateful for all the supportive comments, and have already started doing the things people wanted me to be able to do. And hopefully nothing else... Just zis  Guy, you know?

The paragraph read like an ad for the airport and offered no evidence to support its claims. Please provide a source for the awards before adding them back. Thank you. Dbinder 15:08, 28 January 2006 (UTC) Also, the expression "hemmed in" means constrained, as is appropriate in that article. "Helmed in" doesn't make any sense. Happy first edit day! Probably a bit late already, given your timezone. I wish you keep having fun editing Wikipedia. Cheers! -- Rune Welsh | ταλκ 21:38, 28 January 2006 (UTC) Happy CNY Hi Terence, nice to meet you! Thanks for leaving a comment on my talk page. Kengbeng 13:29, 29 January 2006 (UTC) An Esperanzial note As I remember, the last spam that was handed out was on the 20th of December last year, so I think it's time for another update. First and foremost, the new Advisory Council and Administrator General have been elected. They consist of myself as Admin General and FireFox, Titoxd, Flcelloguy and Karmafist as the Advisory Council. We as a group met formally for the first time on the 31st of Decembe. The minutes of this meeting can be found at WP:ESP/ACM. The next one is planned for tonight (Sunday 29 January) at 20:30 UTC and the agenda can be found at WP:ESP/ACM2. In other news, Karmafist has set up a discussion about a new personal attack policy, which it can be found here. Other new pages include an introductory page on what to do when you sign up, So you've joined Esperanza... and a welcome template: {{EA-welcome}} (courtesy of Bratsche). Some of our old hands may like to make sure they do everything on the list as well ;) Additionally, the userpage award program proposal has become official is operational: see Wikipedia:Esperanza/User Page Award to nominate a userpage or volunteer as a judge. Also see the proposed programs page for many new proposals and old ones that need more discussion ;) Other than that, I hope you all had a lovely Christmas and wish you an Esperanzially good new WikiYear :D Thank you! --Celestianpower háblame 16:57, 29 January 2006 (UTC) Message delivered by Rune.welsh using AWB.

I thought I would let you know that I am reconsidering returning, but not right now as of the moment. — Moe ε 03:37, 1 February 2006 (UTC) User:Ohnoitsjamie's RfA I really appreciate your support for my admin nomination, especially with me being a relatively new user. Cheers, OhNoitsJamieTalk 04:07, 1 February 2006 (UTC) Thank you! For your kind support for my Rfa. Thanks to your support, it passed. Please let me know if I ever do something which bothers you, or if I abuse me admin tools in any way. If you ever need my help, do not hesitate to ask! All the best Banez 17:48, 1 February 2006 (UTC) Answer from me I got your message. What I mean is that if I take the effort to creat a page I expect you and others to have the courtesy to ask me when you go ahead and delete or move it. Is this too much to ask? How would you like me messing around with your work? I hope that you understand my message now. ati3414 My RFA Hi I64s/Archive 2, thanks for participating in my RfA discussion. Unfortunately, my fellow Wikipedians have decided at this time that I am not suitable to take on this additional responsibility, as the RfA failed with a result of 66/27/5 (71.0% support). If you voted in support of my request, thank you! If you decided to oppose me at this time, then I hope that if I do choose to reapply in the future, the effort I will make in the meantime to improve and expand my contributions to Wikipedia may persuade you to reconsider your position. All the best, Proto t c 10:29, 3 February 2006 (UTC) Re: {{MTR Line}}, {{Start MTR box}} Hi Terence, Hold on a minute, I'll be looking at your code shortly after doing a bit of housekeeping at COTW. :) - Mailer Diablo 12:49, 3 February 2006 (UTC) I presume it's working now for you? ;) - Mailer Diablo 13:21, 3 February 2006 (UTC) Okay, I'll see if I can get it working myself when I have some spare time later. - Best regards, Mailer Diablo 14:40, 3 February 2006 (UTC) RfA Thanks! Okay, this is perhaps a bit overdue, but thank-you for your support in my recent RfA! I passed with a final vote count consensus of (82/1/0), which was a lot of support that I really appreciate. I'll try to live up to the expectations; and on that note, if there's ever something I do wrong (or don't do right), please spit in my general direction. Cheers! --PeruvianLlama(spit) 05:31, 4 February 2006 (UTC) G.W. Userbox You may have noticed that Jimbo Wales asked all users to remove politcally motivated userboxes. Your G.W. Bush box would certainly qualify as such, so in order to avoid turning Wikipedia into a political soapbox, please adhere to his request. Cheers. Dbinder 03:42, 5 February 2006 (UTC) There's a box on your userpage. Note: while it may appear that I am singling you out because of our disagreements over Singapore articles, this really is unrelated. I am hoping for people to remove the boxes both supporting and opposing our president, even from other Americans. Dbinder 03:53, 5 February 2006 (UTC) Jimbo Wales mentions it on his talk page. Also Wikipedia:Proposed policy on userboxes has a formal discussion of the issue. Nothing has been 100% decided yet. Dbinder 14:13, 5 February 2006 (UTC) Actually the GW one may be alright, since it's not a political stance, just expressing support for a person. Dbinder 14:18, 5 February 2006 (UTC) Max Lorenz I have left a note on the Talk page of Max Lorenz. Kleinzach 12:36, 5 February 2006 (UTC) Standardisation re this edit Terence, what's the problem with standardisation, and why do you feel SIN should be the odd one out?

For my hometown, it's in Johor, keep a lookout for more photos I upload in future for the district. ;) - Cheers, Mailer Diablo 17:12, 6 February 2006 (UTC) My RFA My admin request went up in flames. (But thanks anyways!) Hey, Terenceong1992, I wanted to thank you for your support of my (unfortunately unsuccessful) request for adminship. The final tally was 37/16/5, which fell short of the needed 75-80% for "consensus". I don't know if or when I'll go up for nomination again, but even if I don't, I will try not to betray the trust that you and 36 others were willing to place in me. Thanks for having faith in me... and happy editing! (And by the way... nice signature.)

I intend to take things slowly and start using the extra abilities gradually, but if there's anything I can do just leave a message. Cheers, CTOAGN (talk) 13:42, 7 February 2006 (UTC) My RfA Thank you for your support on my request for adminship. It ultimately succeeded with votes of 52/1/2, so I am now an administrator.

However, each person has a very different purport to notability, and the deletions should be decided independently. It would be great if you could clarify on each AfD what your voting intent is.

CanadianCaesar The Republic Restored 16:53, 12 February 2006 (UTC) Three weeks of admin tools Today three weeks have passed since I was granted access to the administrator toolbox. During this time I have made use of it in the following way: Protections and unprotections: 1 Blocks and unblocks: 4 Deletions and restorations: 69 Rollbacks: 246 I've found that the rollback tool is much more useful than I'd thought for vandalism patrol. In fact it makes that task so easy that I've been doing it more than before. On the other hand I've been surprised by how little the blocking tool is needed. Having done a significant amount of vandalism patrol I have still only blocked one solitary vandal. The great majority of addresses which send out a vandal edit do so only once. Those who do it more often usually stop after a warning or two. Only rarely is a block actually needed and in those cases someone usually beats me to it. As a side note I haven't retired from writing articles either. I'm still hoping to bring Freyr up to featured status but even though I've already performed more edits on it than on Hrafnkels saga back in the day, a lot of work remains to be done. Community expectations for featured articles have gone up and so have my own ambitions. I'm currently waiting for a couple of books I ordered to arrive and then I may be able to make the final push. I'm trying my best to live up to the trust you showed in me by supporting my RFA. If ever you feel uncertain whether I'm using the admin tools in the best interests of the project, let me know. I am at any time willing to relinquish the mop and reapply for it to address concerns people have and ensure that I'm not using the admin tools without being trusted to do so.
