AfD Votes
You might want to put a * before you put your vote on an AfD discussion. Just a friendly suggestion. Diez2 01:09, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
- Oh, thanks for the reminder. That is indeed how I normally format my messages there but it seems that I missed one today. TSO1D 01:20, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
My RFA

- | Hello TSO1D! I want to thank you for taking time to comment in my recent request for adminship. Though it didn't succeed, I value everyone's opinion, and hope to use the descriptions of the neutral and oppose votes to improve. TeckWizContribs@ 22:59, 13 December 2006 (UTC) |
farewell
I came here to say farewell and also to thank you. We differed in opinion on most issues but you always displayed a level of civility that I respected. Under the climate that currently prevails it is better to disengage, I'm not annoucing my departure on the Transnistria page for obvious reasons. Stay strong.

Ceyockey RfA
A generic but nonetheless warm "thank you" for your words of support in my RfA. I'm glad that you affirmed Radiant's nomination and I'll be measured in my use of the cleaning closet's contents. User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 00:20, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

References
Hi, don't be confused with WP:CITE. The current state of Germany article already conforms with WP:CITE, that you use Footnote style of citing together with inline citations. So when you simply added the long list of books/publications in a newly created References section and you said that they were copy-pasted from other sub-Germany articles and they were not used in the article, then it is not correct. It should be applied also in other article, such as Canada, but it has been featured, so what can I say? There is WP:FAR for reviewing FA article again, but I guess it is not a fatal mistake in Canada. Probabily, your timing was not right. When one reviewer asked about printed sources, you answered him/her by copy-pasting a list of references. That looked like a show-off action and made him/her think that you are not serious of taking his/her comments. — Indon (reply) — 17:15, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
Thank You!
Thank you for your input at my RFA, which successfully closed at 58/2/0. I will think about the 10 questions and answers I had, and I hope that I will use the tools constructively and for the benefit of Misplaced Pages. If you ever need any help, don't be afraid to drop me a line. I'm here to help afterall! Template:Emot -Royalguard11(Talk·Desk·Review Me!) 23:35, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
My RfA

Thank you for participating in my RfA. I decided to end it; more time is needed, and I probably need a bit more experience. From here, I think I'll look at community discussion, AfD and the like. I will try to improve in the areas of concern, and thanks to everyone who supplied feedback. -- Selmo 06:18, 17 December 2006 (UTC) |

I have to dispute the nominators claim of "no outside sources, questionable notability" on this AfD. Number one, there are outside sources listed under references. In particular, he was one of the subjects of RE/Search magazine special edition on Modern Pagans: an Investigation of Contemporary Ritual (Re/Search) by V. Vale & John Sulak. This is a litmus test for notablity in the neopagan community. Most of the other interviewees have articles on Misplaced Pages. Notability is not an issue, regardless of what other issues there may be. This is not to belittle the problem of his posting the article himself, but if someone else had written it, there would be no question in my mind that it should be kept. Pagans typically avoid usual local newpaper and other media coverage, as it can lead to harassment in primarily Christian neighborhoods, especially if they have children in school. But RE/Search doesn't write articles on people they don't think are notable in some way. Ekajati (yakity-yak) 17:21, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

Truli
Is the new guy, Truli, actually Mark Street? He/she seems to have appeared at the same time Mark says he's leaving and their writing style is very similar to when Mark goes off on a bit of a rant. Or maybe I'm just being a fool and it's blatently obvious they are the same person, like it's some kind of joke that I missed? Or I'm just wrong of course...

- I for one have no idea what to think. Of course my immediate reaction was the same, I assumed that he was one of Mark's aliases. There are far too many similarities between their styles and for a new user, Truli seems to know a remarkable deal about Misplaced Pages policy and previous debates regarding the two articles he favors. But I cannot be sure. Truli's style seems to be different, he doesn't make as many accidental mistakes in his writing and the ones he does commit seem to be more idiomatic in nature than I would expect from a native English speaker.
