August Esperanza Newsletter

[edit]
Program Feature: To-Do List
The Esperanza To-Do List is a place where you may list any request, big or small, for assistance. If you need help with archiving your usertalk, for example, all you need to do is list it here and somebody will help you out. Likewise, if you need help with some area of editing on Wikipedia, list it here! Again, any matter, trivial or not, can be placed on this page. However, all matters listed on this page must not be of an argumentative nature. You do not need to be a member of Esperanza (or this program) to place or fulfill requests on this page. If you don't have any requests, consider coming by and fulfilling a few! This program has not been very active, but has lots of potential!
What's New?
In order to help proposed programs become specific enough to make into full-fledged programs, the In development section of the proposals page has been created. Proposals that are promising, but need to be organized in more detail are listed here. Please take a look at what is there, and help the proposals turn into programs.
To improve both the layout and text of the front page, in an attempt to clarify the image of Esperanza, the front page is going to have some redesigning take place. Please take your creative minds to Wikipedia:Esperanza/Front page redesign to brainstorm good ideas.
Many thanks to MiszaBot, courtesy of Misza13, for delivering the newsletter.
  1. In order to make sure all users who join Esperanza are welcomed, a list of volunteers who are willing to welcome new Esperanzians is at Wikipedia:Esperanza/Members#Esperanza_welcomers. Please add yourself if you are interested; we want to make sure all new Esperanza members are welcomed!
  2. The In development section of the proposals page has been created.
  3. Proposals page: Some proposals have been moved to the aforementioned "In development" section, some have been left as a proposal, and others have been archived. For those proposals that were a good idea but didn't necessarily constitute a program, General Esperanzial Actions has been created.
  4. Two small pieces of charter reform will be decided on in a straw poll at Wikipedia talk:Esperanza/Governance. One involves filling the position of any councillors who may leave, the other involves reforming the charter.
  5. Until cooperation with the Kindness Campaign is better defined, it remains as a proposed program.
  6. There is a page for discussing the front page redesign.
Signed...
Although having the newsletter appear on everyone's userpage is desired, this may not be ideal for everyone. If, in the future, you wish to receive a link to the newsletter, rather than the newsletter itself, you may add yourself to Wikipedia:Esperanza/Newsletter/Opt Out List.

Tis the season?

Request reason:

after over two years of thought and reflection I believe I am capable of returning to the wikipedia community as a valuable member. Its been two years but its felt like 200! let me free!.unblock

Decline reason:

After the amount of abuse from this account, even if it was a long time ago, we need to see a better unblock request to even consider it. Please read over WP:GAB before posting another request. Mangojuicetalk 14:46, 22 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You will need to elaborate quite a bit on how you have reformed, to convince me that you should be unblocked. Your previous behavior was extremely disruptive, to say the least. Kevin (talk) 11:46, 22 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

Please unblock me,Its been four long years and in that time I've changed and developed a lot as an editor, and as a person. All that I ask is that after these many years, is if you could give me one last chance to show you I've become much more than the pety vandal I was four years ago.

Decline reason:

My character is still more or less the same as it was five years ago, and I still do roughly the same things I did on Wikipedia that I did then. I do not see any information in this request that helps me understand how your character has drastically changed in such a short period of time.

How exactly have you "developed a lot as an editor"? You've been gone for 2 4 years ... how can we verify this change in you? (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 11:58, 19 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

{{Unblock on hold | 1=blocking administrator|Well for starters I was 15 at the time of my banning and I'm now 20. I think we can all agree that one becomes much more mature and responsible in that sort of age interval. I mean when I was blocked I was in high school, and now I am doing teriary level studies, I think that says more than enough about how I've changed, and finally is it such a massive ask to unblock me, I mean if I have some sort of wacky relapse into my adolescent years, you (sysops) can ban me within a second. Please note: I cant remember how to reply directly to your comments so please excuse my use of the unblock template once again|Chaser (talk) 14:05, 19 November 2010 (UTC)}}[reply]

I discussed your block with Fisher Queen, the other administrator that recently reviewed it (the blocking administrators are all inactive), and he agreed to a conditional unblock. What we'd like you to do is follow the instructions at Template:2nd chance, copying an article here to your talk page and making substantial improvement(s) to it. Once that's done, I'll be happy to unblock you on a probationary basis. Any more vandalism or socking, and I will re-block your account. Will those terms work for you?--Chaser (talk) 02:14, 20 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Tangential, but I'm fairly confident FisherQueen is a she rather than a he, unless there's some self-identification issue I don't know about going on. - Vianello (Talk) 19:26, 22 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It has now been a month with no reply, I have removed the hold on the unblock. Beeblebrox (talk) 22:53, 20 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
