UPA

[edit]

Congratulations, Phaedriel/Archive 9! Your user page has been nominated for the Esperanza User Page Award! Five judges will look over your user page and award it 1-10 points in four categories:

  • Attractiveness: general layout, considering colour scheme and/or use of tables if applicable
  • Usefulness: links to subpages or editing aids, helpful information
  • Interesting-ness: quirky, unique, captivating, or funny content
  • General niceness: at the judges' discretion

But first, you must be chosen as a finalist. If your user page is chosen as one of the five finalists, you'll have the chance to win an award created just for having a great user page!

More information can be found on this page.

Well, it seems the two of us are those finalists with rather lengthy user pages (text-wise), so we'll probably appeal to the same kind of taste, I s'pose... =] Having said that, I wish you the best of luck! —Nightstallion (?) 11:51, 7 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Aww, that's wonderful news, NS! Thanks for the luck wishes; I really think you deserve to win tho, since you've performed an awesome work with your userpage, way beyond the minor help I could provide. Hugz hugz! Phædriel tell me - 11:42, 9 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
You're sweet. =] Thanks, and good luck once more! —Nightstallion (?) 11:50, 9 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You've won the UPA!

My RfA

[edit]

Hey Phaedriel/Archive 9, how is it going? Thank you for supporting my Request for adminship! It passed with a final vote of 73/1/1, which means that I have been granted adminship! I look forward to using these tools to enhance and maintain this wonderful site. I will continue regular article/project contributions, but I will also allocate a sizable portion of my wikischedule toward administrative duties :) Thanks again, and if you have any questions/comments/tips, please let me know! — Deckiller 04:53, 10 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

User and talk page design

[edit]

Your User and talk page design which is in use on kingboyk's user and talk pages really caught my eye, and I've taken a liking to it. It looks simple, yet excellent, and it's not overdone. I asked kingboyk about it and he said it should be fine for me to use it as well, but to also run it by you. I've put it on my pages already, but if it's a problem, I can take it out. Thanks. tv316 09:51, 13 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

In the last few hours, I've completely redone my page to try and make it more presentable. I've looked at some of your previous User page work linked from your User page and your opinion would really mean a lot to me on this. If you have the time, what do you think is good about my page, what needs to go, what's missing, and do you have any suggestions for making it less bland? Thank you for any help you can provide. tv316 11:36, 13 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
You complained once that I didn't give you much to work with. What do you think with what I've done with it?

legit content?

[edit]

There is a user with sockpuppet accounts who has an interest in creating articles on Native American culture (the content may or may not be nonsense). See the notice I posted here. I have no idea if an article like Deverbal noun is nonsense or not. Would you know? NoSeptember talk 14:12, 15 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I saw the above article and thought of you (in the nicest possible way of course). You're quiet again - I hope you're ok and that your injury is healing well. We fan boys miss you so you'd be better back soon! :P --kingboyk 15:20, 17 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

    • Well sure, now that you chatterboxes blabbed up a storm and made the page longer it's not leaking off the bottom any more. Here's another copy so you all know I'm not just on dope. (er, can I say "dope" around a peace officer??) ++Lar: t/c 22:13, 18 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Evil Userpage

[edit]

Hi there,

My userpage has decided to be evil and not let me add an infobox and WikiDEFCON properly.. It would be much appreciated if you could fix it... pretty please... with sugar on top?

Thanks, Werdna648T/C\@ 12:53, 20 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please help!!!!

[edit]

I know I haven't spoken to you in a while, but I really need your help. One of my subpages (User:Spawn Man/Reviews) has been picked out by a big time editor & is now up for deletion here, Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Spawn Man/Reviews. I know it may sound like I only come around when I need something, but this is really important to me. I only did this as a last resort. Please vote to keep the page & I'll do anything, eat your shoes, clean your toilets for a year, even wear one of those t shirts that say I'm stupid! I just want my page which I've spent so much time on to be left alone. Thanks, Spawn Man 01:12, 21 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]


== Wikilove ==
Forget-me-nots in award for displaying simple truths and love

Well, I ran into your name on a deletion page, where you were accused of getting away with a long user page and adminship cause you posted pretty pictures of yourself and whatnot. Reading through your page, I ran into your piece on Wikilove and was absolutely stunned. Such an articulate, wonderful piece of writing that exemplifies a certain kindness/inner beauty. Anyway, I had trouble finding some sort of award to give you, since you seem to have scooped most of them up. I eventually settle on my state's flower, and am giving it to you for great accomplishments in wikilove, as well as the hope that you may squeeze a redesign of my userpage in :) -Mask 03:25, 21 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Can we bribe you back with chocolates? Though I have not interacted with you directly I can't help but notice what a postive difference you have made to so many people. Please don't stay away.--Dakota ~ ° 16:01, 31 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ditto here, come back soon! Oh, and may I please have a piece of your chocolate? Johntex\talk 16:47, 31 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Funny, how just when you think "I haven't seen User:Foo around for a while..." and find several others have had the same thought in short order. Keep safe. -brenneman{L} 02:02, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I sent a mail but it hasn't been answered yet, hope all is well... ++Lar: t/c 02:23, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

She's been gone a month now. Most bizarre, but I'm refusing to worry and imagine her computer is broken or she's crazy busy or something. But, still... --kingboyk 01:33, 9 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I hope you're doing well. :) GfloresTalk 04:57, 16 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I'm starting to get worried :( — Deckiller 04:58, 16 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi and Thanks for the props

[edit]

Hi; thanks for your note. Kinda burning out on it for today as every time I turn over a stone I find twenty more (e.g. at Algonquian languages there's another 20 or 30 that have to be listed yet). Started out working my way through the part of the map I know about; got seduced by trying to be as complete as possible, so wound up exploring continent-wide. I'm not First Nations/Native American but lived a long while at various times in native communities (see http://www.cayoosh.net); but basically there's nothing my obsessive-compulsive mind likes better as a way to waste time is to make up lists, connect/link them, and otherwise waste my grey cells.....the alternative is to play music (e.g. http://www.myspace.com/tamanasstyee or at http://www.cayoosh.net/music/Skookum1 22:24, 8 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Don't need more admins

[edit]

I just think there are too many admins out there who abuse their powers, and so we need a sort of Request for removal of Admins or something before we have more. Ardenn 23:21, 10 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hiya!

[edit]

Hi Phaedriel! I'm glad to see that you're still editing. I'm touched by your little shrine to those who left Wikipedia, but am shocked I'm not at the top of list!! ;) Anyway, you can remove me from that list cause I've returned from my anti-wiki adventure & am now editing once again. Thanks for the thought, Spawn Man 23:22, 10 May 2006 (UTC).[reply]

My user page

[edit]

Can you help me make a better user page? What I got now isn't working, and my previous attempt to make it better just resulted in a mess. Karrmann 23:55, 10 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

RfA offer

[edit]

Hello Phaedriel. Nice to meet you, this userspace is particularly beautiful. I had planned to make a run at the end of May, but I definitely won't be going "now" (at least in the next week) because I am worried that Anwar saadat will launch an attack, based on his comments at my editor review. This was due to a dispute at Talk:Ajith about his repeated use of the terms "mega-star", "mega-hit", "!" in a very hagiographic manner, in which he accused User:Zora, User:Ganeshk, User:David Crawshaw, myself of trolling and vandalising for trimming the article, and then started to behave in such a way as to irritate most of the Indian noticeboard at Wikipedia talk:Notice board for India-related topics, and raised eyebrows at Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#Re:_User:_Anwar_saadat, and left rude comments to Indian bureaucrat Nichalp at User talk:Anwar Saadat/Archive 2. He also made his RfA debut at Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Srikeit to oppose on the grounds of not having featured material - I have never seen anybody oppose due to lack of featured content, which may have resulted from Srikeit asking him to keep cool on Talk:Ajith, which was their only interaction. If a lot of Indian editors kept a close watch on the RfA and defended me, (as Nichalp did when he tried to gatecrash the Aucaman arbitration and decided to try and get Zora banned), it would make it better, but I think Anwar might be able to sway people who are not particularly familiar with me, so I would prefer to wait at least two more weeks to see how this issue pans out.

Also, User:Srikeit, User:Snottygobble and User:I@n had started work via email on a joint nomination, as they had already individually expressed interest in nominating me.

Regards and thanks again, ßlηguγΣη | Have your say!!! - review me 01:43, 12 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Evening

[edit]

I noted your concern on Sango123's page and followed the name, so I hope you don't mind me intruding on your user page. I just wanted to say that it's nice to see concern for another user, and in reading your page also very nice to see someone holding to their heritage in the way that you specifically state, with reference to your private name. Something few and far between. Best regards.ALR 21:32, 12 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
