Really?

I noticed your comment here.. Decided that replying in that thread would be foolish, as it's a huge drama-fest and this issue is not directly related to that issue. But, I think you are way off base here. I'd wager that most admins have policies they don't care about enforcing. And since we're all volunteers, I don't think it's very reasonable to demand a particular level of service. If there's a job that needs done, it's OK if a bunch of people won't touch it. There's another bunch of people who will. Friday (talk) 14:21, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

Fair enough and thank you for your feedback. We seem to disagree here and I am not interested in arguing the point and this is not an attempt to change your opinion, just to clarify mine. I understand your position and can certainly see the merits therein (so must others as it is our current methodology) but I do feel (since the community has seen fit to trust them with the broom) that a certain level of service is expected from the admin corps. We are all volunteers to be sure but taking on the mantle of adminship is a step beyond voluntarily editing the encyclopedia and comes with some responsibilities. This reminds me of the frustration I see expressed every so often at AiV; if an admin is unwilling to intervene with vandals, they should stay away from the vandalism intervention board. Sorry for the rant, this is just my opinion and you know what they say about opinions. Cheers. L0b0t (talk) 14:45, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages:Deletion review/Log/2009 October 2#Bullshido.net

Since you participated in Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Bullshido.net (3rd nomination), which was closed as "no consensus", you may be interested in a subsequent DRV. Since I disagreed with the close, I contacted the closing admin, who responded, "To be honest, Cunard, I would tend to agree with you, but I am not sure if the balance of things heads to delete rather than no consensus. Listing it at DRV might be a good option here; I won't endorse or oppose the close and will allow the DRV community to decide it. Therefore, I have listed this article at DRV; if you would like to participate, please see Misplaced Pages:Deletion review/Log/2009 October 2#Bullshido.net. Thanks, Cunard (talk) 21:12, 2 October 2009 (UTC)

The Gelato Fiasco AFDs

I've closed the second one and relisted the first one. I've also added the AFD tag to the article. --Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:44, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

FYI

, same with userpage. This is a useful tool if you're harassed by crosswiki vandals. Best regards, Finn Rindahl (talk) 22:36, 17 October 2009 (UTC)

Your G.I. Joe IDW edit

If you could please explain to me the reason why you removed the sources for the names and dates of release of the GI Joe Collected editions in this edit ? Those references were provided so the table would be properly referenced/sourced and they were most certainly not a linkspam. Now with their removal the table is left totaly unsourced/unreferenced. I will await your response for the removal of the sources and, if you still have a problem with it, a compromise solution to our problem. Also, I took offense at you calling me a pimping spammy and would remind you of Wikipedias rule on civility. Thank you. Plastelin (talk) 17:45, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

They were removed because they were links to a comic book store selling those particular issues. Please see Misplaced Pages:Spam#External_link_spamming, and Misplaced Pages:External_links#Links_normally_to_be_avoided. The names and release dates are quite easily sourced by referencing the masthead of the publications themselves; there is no need to include external links to a particular retailer's inventory (there is also no reason to include external links in the article body at all, that is what the external links/sources/references sections are for). Sorry you got upset by an edit summary. L0b0t (talk) 16:00, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

Notice of Dispute resolution discussion

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Misplaced Pages:Dispute resolution noticeboard regarding a content dispute in which you may have been involved. Content disputes can hold up article development, therefore we are requesting your participation to help find a resolution. The thread is "Bushmaster Firearms International".

Guide for participants If you wish to open a DR/N filing, click the "Request dispute resolution" button below this guide or go to Misplaced Pages:Dispute resolution noticeboard/request for an easy to follow, step by step request form. What this noticeboard is: It is an early step to resolve content disputes after talk page discussions have stalled. If it's something we can't help you with, or is too complex to resolve here, our volunteers will point you in the right direction. What this noticeboard is not: It is not a place to deal with the behavior of other editors. We deal with disputes about article content, not disputes about user conduct. It is not a place to discuss disputes that are already under discussion at other dispute resolution forums. It is not a substitute for the talk pages: the dispute must have been discussed extensively on a talk page (not just through edit summaries) before resorting to DRN. It is not a court with judges or arbitrators that issue binding decisions: we focus on resolving disputes through consensus, compromise, and explanation of policy. Things to remember: Discussions should be civil, calm, concise, neutral, and objective. Comment only about the article's content, not the other editors. Participants who go off-topic or become uncivil may be asked to leave the discussion. Let the other editors know about the discussion by posting {{subst:drn-notice}} on their user talk page. Sign and date your posts with four tildes "~~~~". If you ever need any help, ask one of our volunteers, who will help you as best as they can. You may also wish to read through the FAQ page located here and on the DR/N talkpage. Please take a moment to review the simple guide and join the discussion. Thank you! ROG5728 (talk) 05:15, 21 December 2012 (UTC) Hello, from a DR/N volunteer This is a friendly reminder to involved parties that there is a current Dispute Resolution Noticeboard case still awaiting opening comments from participants. If this dispute has been resolved to the satisfaction of the filing editor and all involved parties, please take a moment to add a note about this at the discussion so that a volunteer may close the case as "Resolved". If the dispute is still ongoing, please add your input.--Amadscientist (talk) 07:19, 22 December 2012 (UTC) ArbCom elections are now open!
