Comparative method

Hi! Thanks for your feedback on the Comparative method FAC. We've made a few alterations to try to meet your objections, please do take a look and let us know what you think - any suggestions on how to further improve the article are, of course, more than welcome. Cheers, sjcollier 21:26, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

I'm wondering how you feel about the status of the WP:FAR you started? Has it been cleaned up successfully or should we leave it on the review page longer? Cheers, Marskell 15:30, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

I've responded to your complaints on Alison Krauss, please let me know what I can do! Thanks! Staxringold talkcontribs 16:06, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

  • Thanks! I did follow through with one of his requests and I'm going to go remove the Early life sub-tag per another of his requests. For his final request, if any more "notable" sources come to my attention I'll use em. Thanks again! Staxringold talkcontribs 18:21, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

Pikmin Articles

Thank you very much for your assistance cleaning up my articles! I admit to the fact that I can do either...

A. Accidentally insert opinion B. Get too descriptive

I like what you have done with them as well! They were very fair, and sound just like any other article now. If you want to clean up another, I am in the process of the long Treasure (Pikmin) article. I have been informed that it is a bit more like Wikibook material than Wikipedia material, so is it possible to turn it more into Wikipedia material once I've finished? Thanks, --Dreyfus 22:23, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

Thank you RyanGerbil10

Hi there. I would like to thank you very much for your vote in the Esperanza Elections, your trust in me was appreciated and I hope I will be able to live up to your expectations. Thanks again! Regards -- Banes 09:57, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

Enemy List

Excellent idea about the list of enemies! I'll get on that right away... You know, the thing that divides Wikipedia stuff from Wikibooks stuff is amiss to me. Maybe you could help? I felt somewhat hurt though when the Treasure article was deleted shortly after I began changing it to less list and more article... Shortened it too. Should I start it all over again?--Dreyfus 03:14, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

I just realized that you had started already! I changed it on the Distant Spring (which happens to not include ALL of them yet)... I might as well change them on the others as well, but I'll need you to do that column thing with 'em. Please tell me if you dislike what I did, though. Apparently, with the exception of the fact that anybody can just swoop in and edit them, the articles are a group effort of the two of us...somewhat.--Dreyfus 03:25, 12 July 2006 (UTC) (you gotta love Dreyfus!)
Thank you for the tip! I might check it out later... You don't have to answer this question, but do you think I should include White Pikmin in the list of the Awakening Wood's creatures?--Dreyfus 03:37, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

White Pikmin

We seem to go on at the same time... Anyway, I thought I mentioned that about the White Pikmin. Thanks for the suggestion, though. I'm about to add to the Distant Spring's list. This might be a waste of talk space, but I just wanted to say thanks!--Dreyfus 03:43, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

RfA thanks

Captain Olimar

Is there any rule against using phrases such as "pointless crap"? I see it all the time in edit summaries, especially when what is removed was in fact pointless crap (much like what I did remove).

By the way, your work on this page is very biased as to whether or not Captain Olimar will be in SSBB. Putting a heading such as "future release" over comments about whether one magazine who has no power over who will be in SSBB saying that he did good in a poll in which they did not even elaborate on is quite misleading. Now quit bothering me unless it's something important. Xubelox 23:33, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

I don't care. It's original research. It's speculation. It's unprovable. It doesn't belong. A magazine who has zero influence on Nintendo of Japan who won't even reveal who they polled and have decided that olimar should be in based on a few people within their own facility is not credible. We're not even supposed to say characters like Fox and Donkey Kong might be in SSBB on here, and it's a pretty safe bet they will be. Characters like Captain Olimar are especially unacceptable.

I find it pretty funny how you act like king of Wikipedia who knows everything yet you have no problem adding things that are unencyclopediatic when you care about them (ie. Captain Olimar). And if you are so offended by the word crap, you are free to crawl into a cave and live alone from the rest of this foul-mouthed society. Now, before you reply, think: Will it just be wasting my time? If so, don't bother. Seriously. I don't want to hear anything else from you unless it's actually worth hearing.

Your RfA

Ryan, I'm sorry if my note about the suspected sock in your Request for Adminship (support 24) costs you any support that would make the difference. In any case, I wish you the best of luck in your RfA.--Kchase T 05:43, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks. My nom seems to be going fine, but it's always nice to see that someone's paying attention and keeping things clean. I'm not sure what you're up to recently, but I hope whatever it is goes well. RyanGerbil10 (Drop on in!) 05:53, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your comments on my ongoing FAC for Caroline Island. I've made some improvements based on your suggestion about units; check it out and let me know what else I can do to make the article even better! -- Seth Ilys 06:11, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for contributing the impressive the pile of supports gathered on my RfA, which passed with a final tally of 0x0104/0x01/0x00. I'm happy that so many people have put faith in my abilities as an admin and promise to use the tools wisely and do my best not to let you down. If I ever may be of assistance, just leave a note on my talk page.
Misza13, the rouge-on-demand admin wishes you happy editing!

Eluchil404's RfA

Thank you for taking the time to express an opinion in my recent request for adminship. I have withdrawn my self-nomination because there seemed little prospect for further productive discussion or the formation of a consensus to promote. Many commentators offered constructive critisism that I will use to improve myself as a user. Others suggested that the nomination was premature and that a re-nom in a few months would be more likely to gain consensus. Thank you for your kind comments in the RfA. It is always gratifying to have ones work appreciated by other editors. Eluchil404 20:34, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Congrats!

Let me start you off. You'll be promoted any minute now. Use them well and good luck. - CrazyRussian talk/email 03:34, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

Thank you so much for voting in my recent RFA. It passed on the relatively narrow vote of 38/8/8. It was also one of the least-participated-in RFA nominations in several months, so pat yourself on the back, and join the party on your left, but first, take your cookie!
