Misplaced Pages

Revision as of 09:44, 5 April 2011

Thanks for looking at my talk page - feel free to comment and i'll reply on this page, I am so busy editing that I probably won't be able to reply immedietly!

Your RfA

I saw it, and it's pretty unformatted. I hope you meant a second nomination for yourself, instead of User:Wikipedian2 2.Jasper Deng (talk) 04:06, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

Reply on your own talk page please. I'm sorry, but I don't think you're ready yet, given your daily activity here. See WP:NOTNOW.Jasper Deng (talk) 04:11, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

OK, thank-you for considering anyway. Wikipedian2 (talk) 04:12, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

I did notice your Rfa as well and began some preliminary checks that will occur, and I respect your ambition, but honesty fell I should alert you to the policy regarding early attempts which are not quite ready to be compared to expected criteria. Again, I respect ambition, but an administrator is expected to be well in tune with policy and consensus. The simple act of moving forward without full preparation and credential, will be a negative consideration, and there is not enough motivation and ambition to overcome that fact. Please consider this and believe me I am trying to tell you a thing you can almost expect, if you do go forward. Even the malformed RfA, will be used to demonstrate that now is not the right time for you to attempt this thing. IMHO. My76Strat (talk) 04:23, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

Thank-you for your criticism, which I will obviously fully take on board. The good news is I found what I was supposed to edit, and my RfA is no longer the mess it was in before. Wikipedian2 (talk) 04:37, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

Your recent RfA

I am sorry, but I have closed your Request for adminship prematurely. Simply put, you only have 441 edits on Misplaced Pages; while your edit count isn't the only determining factor, and numerous people have their own personal standards by which they judge RfA candidates, this particular RfA was all but assured of not passing.

I am sorry about this, and I hope you don't take it personally. If you continue to contribute to the project in a positive fashion, I am confident that you would be able to submit a successful RfA in the future. You may wish to consider applying for an evaluation by other Misplaced Pages editors for feedback on how to obtain the necessary experience. Once you are ready to request adminship again, there is a great admin coaching program available, as well as a guide to requests for adminship.

If you have any other questions about becoming an administrator, please don't hesitate to ask me. Good luck! Eagles 24/7 (C) 05:11, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

Çan Meslek Yüksekokulu

Hello. I noticed that you tagged this for speedy deletion per db-notenglish. Please note that speedy deletion of non-English articles is only for such pages that have an equivalent on a foreign-language Wíkipedia, not for completely new entries. That is also why a speedy deletion request must have the corresponding interwiki article listed. If you find a page that's not been written in English and can't be sure that there's a similar article on another language Misplaced Pages, please tag it with {{Not English|<language>}} and list it at WP:PNT. If the page then has still not been translated after two weeks it will be proposed for deletion anyway. Regards, De728631 (talk) 15:26, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

Hello, thank-you for your advice on Çan Meslek Yüksekokulu - I will ensure that I apply this in future anti-vandalism activity. Wikipedian2 (talk) 15:34, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

Please note that not all articles that are contributed in a foreign language are vandalism. You should almost always assume good faith with those contributors, as they may not realize that Misplaced Pages is English-only and/or that there are other language Misplaced Pages projects. Logan _Talk 20:03, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

I will make sure to do this in the future. Thank-you for the advice. Wikipedian2 (talk) 09:44, 5 April 2011 (UTC)

Reviewer granted

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged revisions, underwent a two-month trial which ended on 15 August 2010. Its continued use is still being discussed by the community, you are free to participate in such discussions. Many articles still have pending changes protection applied, however, and the ability to review pending changes continues to be of use.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under level 1 pending changes and edits made by non-reviewers to level 2 pending changes protected articles (usually high traffic articles). Pending changes was applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

For the guideline on reviewing, see Misplaced Pages:Reviewing. Being granted reviewer rights doesn't grant you status nor change how you can edit articles even with pending changes. The general help page on pending changes can be found here, and the general policy for the trial can be found here.

If you do not want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Dabomb87 (talk) 21:43, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
