Interview?

I saw on the simple news that you were supposed to be interviewed. Why weren't you? VandalFighterFR(V) Bad warning? 17:49, 13 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

The interview has been made as far as I know, but it was not written up on-wiki in time for the press and publication date. It will feature in the next issues, possibly as a bumper new year special.

Thanks,

DYK?

Hey Shap,

You can't add your own hooks to the next update, and also there's some new guidelines that i'm proposing on ST to avoid all teh dramaz weve been having recently.

Cheers,

Thanks for your help, Yotcmdr✼ Merry Christmas ! ✼ 19:05, 24 December 2008 (UTC) [reply]

Hiya Shaps, thanks for your talking about your plans for 2009! Yotcmdr✼ Merry Christmas ! ✼ 14:49, 25 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there + more

Hi there Shapiros10! I remember you from when I was active back in October of this year :). Since I have been gone, it has been a while since I have worked on this site and I have lost my eye for vandalous articles or articles that actually do need to be deleted. You are correct in the message that you said on the page that I nominated for deletion. I overthought what needed to be done and nominated the article for deletion incorrectly. It was my mistake and I have corrected it by withdrawing my request. I hope that my mistake doesn't impact your opinion of me because honestly, I was kind of expecting to be a bit rusty :). Cheers, Razor flame 21:38, 26 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, welcome back! Missed ya! 'Bout the article, it's fine. Shapiros10 ^{Flap the Yap} 22:00, 26 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks :). I should be gathering speed into the New Year because of the fact that I just entered into the Wikicup 2009, which will make me start to contribute a ton more to this site in the New Year. Cheers, Razor flame 22:02, 26 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Question

In your review, you said something about beating a dead horse and gave a link to an essay, and then said that it was a core guideline....could you clarify exactly what it is that you meant by what you said there? Thanks, Razor flame 19:29, 27 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I meant to link to WP:OWN, can't imagine why i forgot. I must be getting old :P Shapiros10 ^{Flap the Yap} 20:06, 27 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Why do you say that I still have issues with WP:OWN if I don't even do anything that is against WP:OWN? Razor flame 20:08, 27 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm just saying, that even though it's been quite a few months since there's been any issue between you and that guideline, it's still a core guideline of WP that is quite important not to break, as you probably know. Basically, you'll need to prove to the community more that you have overcame your issues with it. I have faith in you though :) Shapiros10 ^{Flap the Yap} 20:11, 27 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I know that I won't be able to have my next RfA until after I prove to you guys that I have overcome it :). To tell you the truth, you shouldn't even worry about me breaking that core guideline as I have already learned from my mistakes in the past. Thank you for having faith in me as that helps to make my life on this Wikipedia much easier. I do indeed know that WP:OWN is a core guideline and I will never break that guideline again. Cheers, Razor flame 20:16, 27 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you

Thank you for your support in my RfA which passed 24/0/0. I will do my best to better Wikipedia with the administrative tools that the community has seen fit to grant me. Special thanks to Shapiros10 for nominating me and if you ever need anything, feel free to ask! Malinaccier (talk) (review) 18:08, 16 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

RFA

Not looking so good :( . Yotcmdr =talk to the commander= 09:19, 17 January 2009 (UTC) [reply]

I know, and truth be told I'm glad I had a good night sleep. I'm treating this with a clear head from now on. Shapiros10 ^{Flap the Yap} 12:11, 17 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I hope you pass. You are more active than me and all that stuff. VandalFighterFR(V) Bad warning? 14:41, 17 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. BTW, it would've been a little better to ask before adding a co-nom. I already had someone else want to co-nom. Shapiros10 ^{Flap the Yap} 14:42, 17 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ryan screws up again! BTW, you can have more than 1 co-nom. VandalFighterFR(V) Bad warning? 14:44, 17 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I know, but I only wanted one more. :| Shapiros10 ^{Flap the Yap} 14:45, 17 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I thought I should co-nom you because I think you got me unbanned but I will remove it if you want. VandalFighterFR(V) Bad warning? 14:46, 17 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You can leave it if it means a lot to you, but most people usually put a particular reason why they think that person should have the mop with their vote instead of just making a 2-3 sentance co-nom. Shapiros10 ^{Flap the Yap} 14:48, 17 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It means a lot to me. VandalFighterFR(V) Bad warning? 14:50, 17 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, Shapiros is correct, you should have asked first. This is exactly what you did on Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/RyanCross. I know you've been told to ask for permission first before nominating anybody already. Do we have to remind you again? — RyanCross (talk) 15:43, 17 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I think I need another trout. VandalFighterFR(V) Bad warning? 18:22, 17 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
