No one expects a Pigman admin!

		Wallowing in my RfA: This time it's personal...
		My sincere thanks for your support in my request for adminship, which ended with 51 supports, 0 opposes, and 0 neutral. Doubtless it was an error to put one of the government-bred race of pigmen in any position of authority, but I hope your confidence in me proves justified. Even a man pure of heart and who says his prayers at night can become a were-boar when the moon is full and sweet. Fortunately, I'm neither a were-pig nor pure of heart so this doesn't appear to be an imminent danger to Wikipedia for the moment. Fortunate as well because were-pig hooves are hell on keyboards and none too dexterous with computer mice. If ever I should offend, act uncivil, misstep, overstep, annoy, violate policy, or attempt to topple the fascist leadership of Wikipedia, please let me know so I can improve my behaviour and/or my aim. I am not an animal; I am an admin. And, of course, if there is any way in which I can help you on Wikipedia, please do not hesitate to ask me. Despite my japes, I am indeed dedicated to protecting and serving Wikipedia to the best of my foppish and impudent abilities. I will strive to be an admirable admin, shiny and cool, reasonable and beatific. Pigman^what?/trail 05:34, 8 November 2007 (UTC)[reply] Post Scriptum: I believe my collaged graphic at left, which incorporates the WP globe and mop image, falls under the rubric of parody for my purposes here. Or is it satire? Regardless, it's a legitimate and legally protected First Amendment usage under US law. Complaints and allegations that this is an improper "fair use" image will be entertained on my talk page, probably with fruit juice, finger food and exotic coffees.

Thanks!

Belatedly, for the Barnstar! I started my residency in June and hadn't logged in to wikipedia for months, thus the tardy reply. Perhaps I'll take it as inspiration to resume contributing now and then. -Rustavo^{Talk/Contribs} 01:20, 10 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

My RfA - thanks

Thank you for your support in my request for adminship, which succeeded with a final tally of 38/1/0! I hope I can live up to the standards of adminship, and I will try my best to make Wikipedia a better place. Gaius Cornelius (talk) 18:43, 23 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Somewhat-Belated RfA Thanks :-)

Tapadh Leibh (Thank You)...

...for helping me navigate the waters of my surprisingly peaceful RFA, which closed successfully with 85 supports, 1 oppose, and 0 neutral.

I would particularly like to thank Acalamari and Alison, my nominators, and everyone who watched the page and ran the tally.

If there is anything I can do to be of service in the future, please feel free to contact me. (Oh, and if you hate RfA Thankspam, please forgive me. I promise I won't block you for deleting it ;-))

And forgive me if I need a Wikibreak now and then (like now. I'm exhausted!). You wouldn’t want to see me climbing the Reichstag, now would you?

Off to flail around with my new mop! (what?!)

Hi Axl, thanks for the stellar recognition! Just noticed your hugely impressive contributions to Wikiproject Medicine and elsewhere — well done. Hope our paths meet again somewhere in wikispace. Best, Neparis 02:54, 1 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

(Belated) Happy New Year! spam

My Rfa

Well, not this time anyway it seems...my effort to regain my adminship was unsuccessful, but your support was still very much appreciated. Let me know if there is anything I can do for you. Thank you!--MONGO 07:06, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

My RFA →→→

Dear Axl, here is a little note to say thank you for your kind vote on my request for adminship which succeeded with a final result of (29/5/5).

I cannot thank you enough for you're support on my RFA. And now that I am a sysop, I will work hard to improve the encyclopedia with my new editing tools. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any queries you have. I would be glad to help you along with the other group of kind and helpful administrators.

Thank you again and I look forward to editing alongside you in the future. — Chetblong^{T C} 20:50, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I can has thankspam?

Quick, let's delete the front page!

No seriously, thanks for contributing at my RfA which ended 68/0/0. I'm amazed and humbled by the result, and the warm and supportive comments that went with it. I've put the pic of Tiger here because although I know not everyone appreciates lolcats, to me it illustrates the possibility of taking things seriously with a light heart. I will try to do so, and remain open to the being slapped down if I do start being impossibly pompous.

Thanks Pedro : Chat for your generous nomination, and also to Master of Puppets for ripping off his thankspam without so much as a by-your-leave. To all who contributed - especially the eventually withdrawn (but very interesting) neutral and oppose - thank you! Now it's off to new admin school for me, before I dare do anything for real...

hi Axl, thanks a lot for taking out your precious time for reviewing the article. i have addressed all the issues you stated. hope so now you can make your decision. thanks, Sushant gupta (talk) 08:20, 27 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

dear Axl,

i can't break it any further. if will break it it won't look nice. the sentence is long because the name of the schemes introduced by the government are lengthy. hope so you won't mind. thanks a lot for your worthy efforts! :-) Sushant gupta (talk) 07:57, 28 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've had a go at the sentence, see what you guys make of it. Cheers, Jayen 466 13:46, 28 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There is a revote on the FA leave comments page of this article. You are invited to reexamine the article and either confirm or deny your previous support vote by voting again. Thanks. NancyHeise (talk) 08:20, 13 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to confirm my support. However my IP address is blocked (see above). Axl (talk) 18:21, 13 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank-you

Hi Axl! Thank-you for your support in my RfA (91/1/1).

I take all the comments to heart and hope I can fulfil the role of being

an admin to the high standard that the community deserves.

RFA Thanks

Thank you for your comments on my RFA. Even though it failed with 28 supports, 42 opposes, and 15 neutrals, I am grateful for the suggestions and advice I have received and I do hope to improve as a Wikipedian. If you ever need my help in any endeavor, feel free to drop me a line. --Shark face 217 19:33, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The Transhumanist (Rfa)

I think The Transhumanist would make a great admin but I don't think I have the experience necessary to make up a nomination. If you want to take the lead, I'd be happy to follow though. --RegentsPark (talk) 15:37, 22 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re-assess action potential?

Hey Axl,

I know that you voted to remove action potential only three weeks ago, but the article has been improved considerably since then — well, at least I think so. ;) You can set me straight by reading the article through and telling me what still needs to be improved. I really do think it's worthy to be a Featured Article, and if you agree, I'd appreciate it if you changed your vote to Keep. Thanks! :) Willow (talk) 19:40, 24 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

RfA thanks!

		RfA: Many thanks
		Many thanks for your participation in my recent request for adminship. I am impressed by the amount of thought that goes into people's contribution to the RfA process, and humbled that so many have chosen to trust me with this new responsibility. I step into this new role cautiously, but will do my very best to live up to your kind words and expectations, and to further the project of the encyclopedia. Again, thank you. --jbmurray (talk • contribs) 06:15, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
