I've made significant improvements to the structure and verifiability of Partners for Democratic Change. Would you be willing to review your vote on its deletion? Thanks! i kan reed (talk) 16:22, 28 June 2011 (UTC)
Hi Tyro. I'm just letting you know that I deleted the above page as G10 attack and not vandalism as you had tagged it. It was quite a nasty piece of blatant slander. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 15:39, 30 June 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks for alerting me; it was a bit of a tricky one, in hindsight I suppose I should have marked it for G10 to courtesy blank it, but it appeared to me to be merely misinformation to the point of vandalism (read like an autobio). At any rate, thanks again. Tyrol5 [Talk] 15:44, 30 June 2011 (UTC)
- Well, with all the filthy language in it, I'm surprised it didn't trip the filters, but maybe I beat them to it :) --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 15:53, 30 June 2011 (UTC)
- Might have something to do with the fact that the username of the creator contained "Josh", prompting suspicion of an autobio (that's what I thought myself); plus the first sentence threw me off (something along the lines of ambitious, goal-setting, etc.). Good work nonetheless. Tyrol5 [Talk] 15:58, 30 June 2011 (UTC)

Alameda abuses students
is that really what you wanted it to say? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.41.52.7 (talk) 19:33, 2 July 2011 (UTC)
- That appeared to be leftover from a previous vandal's edit. Your edit resembled vandalism in that you added the acronym "lol" to the article instead of properly fixing it. Keep this in mind for next time. Tyrol5 [Talk] 19:37, 2 July 2011 (UTC)

WP:RFA2011: RfA on other Wikipedias
A detailed table and notes have now been created and posted. It compares how RfA is carried out on major Wikipedias (English, French, German, Italian, Spanish). If you feel that other important language Wikipedias should be added, please let us know. This may however depend on our/your language skills!

The article Mir EO-19 you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold 
. The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needed to be addressed. If these are fixed within seven days, the article will pass, otherwise it will fail. See Talk:Mir EO-19 for things which need to be addressed. Jezhotwells (talk) 23:56, 7 July 2011 (UTC)

Linking Letters, new metal band
Hey, um.. Yeah, the reason they possibly may not seem of much importance to you or anything like that is probably 'cause you've never heard of them. There BRAND NEW. I mean seriously, they're gonna be HUGE. Put my page back up man, it'll be updated about twice a week at least, promise. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Axel Psych (talk • contribs) 20:45, 11 July 2011 (UTC)
- Unfortunately, this band does not pass our notability guideline for musical ensembles. Thus it is inappropriate to include in an encyclopedia at this time. Thanks, Tyrol5 [Talk] 11:24, 12 July 2011 (UTC)

It's not enough for me to oppose over it (because it was from over two years ago), but please properly give descriptions and sources for your images. File:The human lungs.png appears to have been cropped from File:Inhalation diagram.svg (it would have been better to do it as an SVG, but that's a completely unrelated topic and obviously not everyone has an SVG editor at their disposal, which is completely understandable). Even though you are under no legal obligation to credit the original uploader since she did release her work into the public domain, not crediting the source is still considered plagiarism. You should give the image a meaningful description and properly credit the source. --B (talk) 00:05, 20 July 2011 (UTC)

RfA reform
Hi Tyrol. I've left a more comprehensive reply for you both on my talk page, to which I'll add, that although we need to keep an even balance between coordinators and the task force members, you are most welcome to put your name on the coord list and try to galvanise people into action. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 18:05, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

Request to Userfy recently deleted page
RiskVal was deleted recently while I was in the middle of working on it. I had put in the framework but wanted to work on content separately so I could provide a clean first draft before community edits started happening. I should have planned it out in a user space or sandbox instead of making a separate page before it was ready.
One concern though. I had put the newpage tag at the top and I understood that said notice would give me at least a day of editing before the article was even considered for deletion while I was still working on it. Why does the tag exist if people ignore it? What's the point?
There wasn't much to the page but I'd appreciate if it could be userfied so I wouldn't have to redo it :D Thank you for your time, Spideygoturback (talk) 21:09, 31 August 2011 (UTC)
- Done The draft can now be found at User:Spideygoturback/RiskVal. As for your concern, User:Nikthestoned is correct in saying that {{newpage}} is more for those experienced in article work and, thus, not a first-time article creator like yourself, who should draft the article in the userspace first. Good luck and regards, Tyrol5 [Talk] 19:20, 2 September 2011 (UTC)
RfA Reform update
Hi. It's been a little while since the last message on RfA reform, and there's been a fair amount of slow but steady progress. However, there is currently a flurry of activity due to some conversations on Jimbo's talk page.
I think we're very close to putting an idea or two forward before the community and there are at least two newer ones in the pipeline. So if you have a moment:
- Have a look at the min requirement proposal and familiarise yourself with the statistics, I'd appreciate comment on where we should put the bar.
- Any final comments would be appreciated on the clerks proposal.
- Feedback on the two newer proposals - Pre-RfA & Wikipedia:RfA reform 2011/Sysop on request. Both are more radical reforms of RfA and might run along side the current system.
Thanks for reading and for any comments that you've now made.

(You are receiving this message because you are either a task force member, or you have contributed to recent discussions on any of these pages.) The number of nominations continues to nosedive seriously, according to these monthly figures. We know why this is, and if the trend continues our reserve of active admins will soon be underwater. Wikipedia now needs suitable editors to come forward. This can only be achieved either through changes to the current system, a radical alternative, or by fiat from elsewhere. A lot of work is constantly being done behind the scenes by the coordinators and task force members, such as monitoring the talk pages, discussing new ideas, organising the project pages, researching statistics and keeping them up to date. You'll also see for example that we have recently made tables to compare how other Wikipedias choose their sysops, and some tools have been developed to more closely examine !voters' habits. The purpose of WP:RFA2011 is to focus attention on specific issues of our admin selection process and to develop RfC proposals for solutions to improve them. For this, we have organised the project into dedicated sections each with their own discussion pages. It is important to understand that all Wikipedia policy changes take a long time to implement whether or not the discussions appear to be active - getting the proposals right before offering them for discussion by the broader community is crucial to the success of any RfC. Consider keeping the pages and their talk pages on your watchlist; do check out older threads before starting a new one on topics that have been discussed already, and if you start a new thread, please revisit it regularly to follow up on new comments. The object of WP:RFA2011 is not to make it either easier or harder to become an admin - those criteria are set by those who !vote at each RfA. By providing a unique venue for developing ideas for change independent of the general discussion at WT:RFA, the project has two clearly defined goals:
The fastest way is through improvement to the current system. Workspace is however also available within the project pages to suggest and discuss ideas that are not strictly within the remit of this project. Users are invited to make use of these pages where they will offer maximum exposure to the broader community, rather than individual projects in user space. We already know what's wrong with RfA - let's not clutter the project with perennial chat. RFA2011 is now ready to propose some of the elements of reform, and all the task force needs to do now is to pre-draft those proposals in the project's workspace, agree on the wording, and then offer them for central discussion where the entire Wikipedia community will be more than welcome to express their opinions in order to build consensus. New tool Check your RfA !voting history! Since the editors' RfA !vote counter at X!-Tools has been down for a long while, we now have a new RfA Vote Counter to replace it. A significant improvement on the former tool, it provides a a complete breakdown of an editor's RfA votes, together with an analysis of the participant's voting pattern. Are you ready to help? Although the main engine of RFA2011 is its task force, constructive comments from any editors are always welcome on the project's various talk pages. The main reasons why WT:RfA was never successful in getting anything done are that threads on different aspects of RfA are all mixed together, and are then archived where nobody remembers them and where they are hard to find - the same is true of ad hoc threads on the founder's talk page. |

- That was a warning for disruptive editing from April of this year. If you have a shared IP address, that might be why (assuming it wasn't you who made the edit). A quick and easy solution to this would be to create an account, but it's up to you. Regards, Tyrol5 [Talk] 19:21, 7 October 2011 (UTC)

US Orbital Segment
Hi Tyrol5, I just went through a major overhaul (complete rewrite) of the US Orbital Segment article. I have tagged it for copy edit, but I was wondering if maybe you could give it a peak. I would like to get it out of stub category, but I am not the best in grammar. I want to have all my ducks in a row before I request an assessment of it at the spaceflight project. If you see anything else that might be a problem, let me know. Thanks in advance--NavyBlue84 17:08, 12 February 2012 (UTC)
- Absolutely. Just give me a day or so and I'll take a look. Tyrol5 [Talk] 03:38, 13 February 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks for waiting. I've now copyedited the article and have taken the liberty of illustrating it with a few more images. Overall, a very superb job in supplying the article with much more information (it most definitely needed expansion); it was a pleasure to read. Most of the copyedits were minor (grammar, punctuation and so forth) relative to the work you put into rewriting it. It's certainly ready for reassessment. Don't hesitate to let me know if you'd like another set of eyes in the future. Tyrol5 [Talk] 01:48, 14 February 2012 (UTC)
MSU Interview
Dear Tyrol5,
My name is Jonathan Obar user:Jaobar, I'm a professor in the College of Communication Arts and
Sciences at Michigan State University and a Teaching Fellow with the Wikimedia Foundation's
Education Program. This semester I've been running a little experiment at MSU, a class where we
teach students about becoming Wikipedia administrators. Not a lot is known about your community,
and our students (who are fascinated by wiki-culture by the way!) want to learn how you do what
you do, and why you do it. A while back I proposed this idea (the class) to the community
[[Wikipedia:Village_pump_(proposals)/Archive_82#Learn_to_be_a_Wikipedia_Administrator_-
_New_class_at_MSU|HERE]], where it was met mainly with positive feedback. Anyhow, I'd like my
students to speak with a few administrators to get a sense of admin experiences, training,
motivations, likes, dislikes, etc. We were wondering if you'd be interested in speaking with one
of our students.
So a few things about the interviews:
- Interviews will last between 15 and 30 minutes.
- Interviews can be conducted over skype (preferred), IRC or email. (You choose the form of
communication based upon your comfort level, time, etc.)
- All interviews will be completely anonymous, meaning that you (real name and/or pseudonym) will
never be identified in any of our materials, unless you give the interviewer permission to do so.
- All interviews will be completely voluntary. You are under no obligation to say yes to an
interview, and can say no and stop or leave the interview at any time.
- The entire interview process is being overseen by MSU's institutional review board (ethics
review). This means that all questions have been approved by the university and all students have
been trained how to conduct interviews ethically and properly.
Bottom line is that we really need your help, and would really appreciate the opportunity to speak
with you. If interested, please send me an email at obar@msu.edu (to maintain anonymity) and I
will add your name to my offline contact list. If you feel comfortable doing so, you can post your
name HERE instead.
If you have questions or concerns at any time, feel free to email me at obar@msu.edu. I will be
more than happy to speak with you.
Thanks in advance for your help. We have a lot to learn from you.
Sincerely,

As I went to correct it, I didn't see the mistake anymore. I saw that you corrected it just seconds earlier. I wanted to thank you for your diligence and hard work on the this website and hope to contribute with you in the future. Metsfreak2121 (talk) 19:57, 6 May 2012 (UTC)

CGWLaw → RobynMay
Hi Thanks for the update, can I please change to RobynM78. CGWLaw (talk) 01:27, 18 June 2012 (UTC)CGWLaw /RobynMay
- That'd be alright, but as I'm not a bureaucrat, you'd have to ask at your request for one to see it. Thanks, Tyrol5 [Talk] 01:34, 18 June 2012 (UTC)
Happy anniversary!

De-adminship reform
Hi Tyrol. Last year, de-adminship reform was considered out of scope by WP:RfA reform 2011, and you created User:Tyrol5/De-adminship reform. Unfortunately, that never really got off the ground - but I thought I might come to you to help out with User:Worm That Turned/Community De-adminship proof of concept, I'm hoping to get an RfC together to judge the community's view on "community de-adminship". I know this isn't going to be a short process, there's a reason it's perennial, but I thought it would be a good way to start. Would appreciate any thoughts. WormTT(talk) 12:18, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
