T-Man Ban

[edit]

I DEMAND his immediate ban. He just reverted my work in List of Batman: The Animated Series episodes in its entirety, with complete disregard for naming conventions, and a complete disregard of my edits for consistency of "Part One" and "Part I" (he of course being all over the map on this). DOES HE GET TO OWN THIS PAGE? If so, then Wikipedia is a pathetic excuse for a resourse. I HAVE HAD IT WITH THIS BOOR. He is a complete waste of everyone's time. Why do we put up with this??? And how long does he get to defame me with impunity on his talk page? I DEMAND that all mentions of my by him be deleted NOW!!!! -- Dyslexic agnostic 07:31, 4 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Request for Adminship

[edit]

With sincerest regret and a heavy heart, it's my responsibility to inform you that your Request for Adminship was not successful and has been closed. I am truly at a loss for what to say, but encourage you to continue your good work and try again at a later date. My apologies for this failure on the part of the commmunity.

RfA Condolensces

[edit]

Hey, man, I voted in your RfA and had it on my watchlist — really was quite sorry to see it not go through. I know Wikipedia believes in consensus, but it occurs to me that the demand for consensus even over majority seems to really put up a nearly impossible barrier to adminship ... as evidenced by this vote. I truly hope you'll give it another try after some time has passed, and, if you do, if you'd be kind enough to drop a note on my talk page, I can probably increase that 'support' total by one. Hope this isn't enough to sour you on Wikipedia as a whole. — Mike (talk • contribs) 20:50, 5 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Heh thanks, don't worry I wont be leaving Wikipedia but ii think it will be a while before ii consider running for rfa againBenon 22:40, 5 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Bennon, I'd like to ask you a big favor. Can you go to my talk page and cross the words or sentenses that you find most uncalled for to describe DA. I just realized reports look better when I just say "DA did this or that" instead of "DA is a ___________(stalker, vandal, etc.) because he did this or that.

Don't erase anything though, I'll do it myself, but I'd really like your help to moderate my tone. That will help me identify the key words that turn talking into atacking.

Thanks beforehand.

Thankyou joshuaz, I will give it some serious thought however I'm not sure when if adminship would be of interest to me again, especially due to some current events in real life, but I do appreciate the offer and may hold you to it :D Benon 00:30, 31 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

NOSSA article

[edit]

Brief: Hello. I would like to request help with an issue I am having with the editor Ju66l3r. I feel that this editor is attempting to defame this organization. My two chief complaints involve the fact that this editor authored the main portion of the article and will not allow any edits to bring the article to an acceptable level of clarity. Ju66l3r's description of NOSSA has omitted several key areas of NOSSA's activities. Secondly, I feel that the editor's insistence on including the piece on the "May 2006 controversy" is malicous. While this incident did occur, it is hardly as news-worthy or worthy of inclusion in a supposed encyclopedic article as this editor has made it appear. Perhaps, a brief sentence on the matter would be appropriate. Ju66l3r seems to be intent on making this an integral portion of the article and any attempts to edit the item will result in a revert.
