Thank you very much for giving your support to my admin application, which recently closed successfully (36/3/1). I hope I can continue to justify the confidence that you have placed in me. If there is any way that I can help out more, please drop me a line. Thanks again. - 52 Pickup (deal) 22:11, 1 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You recently placed a tag on the King Hadrada page, stating that it was a hoax. Well, King Hadrada was a real person, and the other edit, I didn't create. I am going to learn about Hadrada and try again and I hope to get some help from you administrators. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Camoq (talk • contribs) 06:02, 3 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Just a note, I am not an administrator. But I am a rollbacker. NHRHS2010 11:17, 3 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

New York City Meetup Next: Sunday March 16th, Columbia University area Last: 1/13/2008 This box: view • talk • edit

In the afternoon, we will hold a session dedicated to meta:Wikimedia New York City activities, and have salon-style group discussions on Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia projects (see the last meeting's minutes).

Well also make preparations for our exciting Wikipedia Takes Manhattan event, a free content photography contest for Columbia University students planned for Friday March 28 (about 2 weeks after our meeting).

In the evening, we'll share dinner and chat at a local restaurant, and (weather permitting) hold a late-night astronomy event at Columbia's telescopes.

You can add or remove your name from the New York City Meetups invite list at Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/Invite list.

You're also invited to subscribe to the public Wikimedia New York City mailing list, which is a great way to receive timely updates.
This has been an automated delivery because you were on the invite list. BrownBot (talk) 03:17, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I am still interested! ... discospinster _talk 21:29, 5 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Why did you put a fancy-looking indefblocked template on that userpage? 58.168.209.250 (talk) 11:32, 8 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your support. - J Greb (talk) 22:51, 12 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Dear NHRHS, thank you for taking part in my RfB. As you may know, it was not passed by bureaucrats. I would, however, like to thank you for taking the time to voice your support, despite concerns cited by the opposition. Although RfA/B isn't really about a person, but more about the community, I was deeply touched and honoured by the outpouring of support and interest in the discussion. I can only hope that you don't feel your opinion was not considered enough - bureaucrats have to give everyone's thoughts weight. I also hope that the results of this RfB lead to some change in the way we approach RfBs, and some thought about whether long-entrenched standards are a good thing in our growing and increasingly heterogenous community. I remain eager to serve you as an administrator and as an editor. If at any point you see something problematic in my actions, please do not hesitate to call me out. ~ Riana ⁂ 12:40, 13 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You will be pleased to know that I am now an admin! Thank you so much for your nomination and support. ... discospinster _talk 23:15, 13 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

As a courtesy, I'm letting you know that I replaced it with a picture I took that I think is a little better ... it was taken at night so the contrast from the daylight doesn't kill the picture and you can see the colors more. See here.

You'll notice, also, that it is licensed as fair use. You may not have realized this when you uploaded your picture to Commons, but pictures of copyrighted statues, sculptures, murals and other public art cannot be free images as we don't yet have full freedom of panorama in this country (At least we can shoot architecture!). Yes, even when you take them yourself. So eventually it's likely that someone at Commons will mark the image for deletion.

Don't take this personally. You gave me a barnstar once for the work I do, and correspondingly I very much appreciate the work you do on articles related to the greater NY/NJ area. Daniel Case (talk) 08:48, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article East Saddle River Road (New Jersey), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of East Saddle River Road (New Jersey). B.

Hi NHRHS2010, thanks for supporting my RfA, which passed with 42 supports, 0 opposes, and 0 neutrals. Special thanks goes to my nominator, Kakofonous. I'm pleased that the Wikipedia community has trusted me with the mop and I take it very seriously. Cheers! Toddst1 (talk) 15:38, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. Regarding the recent revert you made to Paul the Apostle: You may already know about them, but you might find Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace useful. After a revert, these can be placed on the user's talk page to let them know you considered their edit was inappropriate, and also direct new users towards the sandbox. They can also be used to give a stern warning to a vandal when they've been previously warned. Thank you. Enigma ^msg! 19:43, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I was the one who reverted the vandalism on Paul the Apostle, and I usually warn vandals, but I didn't warn that user because I thought you already did. I have been here on Wikipedia for a year already, my first edit day is coming soon, which is March 19. NHRHS2010 19:47, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, and thanks for your support in my recent RFA! The final result was 61/0/3, so I've been issued the mop! I'm extremely grateful for your confidence in me and will strive to live up to it. Thanks again! —Scott5114↗ [EXACT CHANGE ONLY] 07:29, 15 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi NHRHS2010! 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. Seraphim♥ Whipp 16:32, 16 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

		Thanks for the support
		Thanks for your support on my request for adminship. It passed 92/2/2, and I'll be sure to have some fun (productive admin work-fun, of course) with the mop every once in a while. ♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 02:21, 18 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Just a friendly heads up on West Saddle River Road (New Jersey). I removed your prod tag, as it does meet Wikipedia:Notability_(Places_and_transportation)#Streets_and_roads. If you still think it needs to go, feel free to take it to AfD. Cheers! --Fabrictramp (talk) 20:03, 19 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

	Thanks!
So, yeah, you know how these work... »»»» Thank you very much for your support in my recent RfA, which closed with a final tally of (75/1/0). Your trust in me is greatly appreciated, and I can assure you it has not been misplaced. I shall use these tools to the best of my ability, and will do my best not to let you down. Thank you once again, and happy editing as always! Hersfold (t/a/c) 20:17, 19 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oh snap, the DEA is an admin

I would like to thank you for your participation in my recent RfA, which I'm very glad to say was successful at 81/7/0. Some of the very best that Wikipedia has to offer came out to support or oppose me and the kind words from all the editors has really given me confidence to be an admin and I can't wait to start. I will take the advice of the opposes and not jump into any content disputes immediately. As well, I will try to add more content myself. Anyways, in thanks for participating in my RfA, I've made you this French pastry. Enjoy! --ÐeadΣyeДrrow (Talk - Contribs) 14:17, 20 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there NHRH. Wanted to say thanks for the support of my recently unsuccessful RfA. I have yet another coach now, and with a few more months of experience, I hope to be back for another run at adminship. Thanks again = Tanthalas39 (talk) 00:41, 21 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! Thank you for your support in my RFA. The passed with a final count of (73/3/1), so I am now an administrator. Please let me know if at any stage you need help, or if you have comments on how I am doing as an admin. Have a nice day! :) Aleta Sing 18:44, 22 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Do you want it all semi-protected, by chance? --Maxim_(talk) 00:12, 28 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I was accused of vandalism. It was not me that left rude comments on the James Edgar Walker page. I tried to correct the page. I also want to add the names of his wives and THREE children. I would never leave rude comments on a page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lady Bagnall (talk • contribs) 15:55, 30 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
