CfD Talk Page Deletion

Hello, I saw that you deleted out the categories that I cleared. Could you please also zap Category talk:French presidential election candidate, 2007? It is currently a redirect created as a result of moving the talk page to the new category. Thanks --After Midnight 0001 13:21, 6 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Got it. --Kbdank71 13:28, 6 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
hehe thanks! Syrthiss 13:30, 6 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, I saw that Syrthiss removed the entry from the working file, I forgot to notice that Kris actually did the deleting. I'll check the Deletion log next time.... --After Midnight 0001 14:35, 6 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
No worries. Syrthiss 14:42, 6 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, I'm the one who missed the talk page, sorry about that. --Kbdank71 15:37, 6 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Possible need for adjudication in roadnames

Hi. This note is a heads up that you might be called to help adjudicate/decide how to apply PI to part 1 of the Highways naming poll. As you know all of us judging admins selected P1, but it turns out that there is a question of applicability. You should read the threads yourself, but my summarization is as follows. Some states are not currently in conformance with P1, and do not want to change if they don't have to. They are saying that P1 only applies in cases where there was controversy, and if the state's road project/key users are with staying put, and if they set up redirects for all the articles so that P1 style searches find the articles, that ought to be enough. (in some cases maybe they'll switch later if they want to)

There seems to be agreement that if a state is in contention about conventions, P1 will be imposed, but disagreement about what "in contention" is. In particular, NJ participants are split about whether they are or are not in contention. I gave them all (arbitrarily, unfairly, etc, etc, because I'm being a bit of a hardass to keep things moving) until about an hour from now to come to consensus voluntarily or else... the or else is that we would canvass, decide, and impose our choice. Right now my read is that it may be less contentious overall to allow modified P1, that is, allow states that don't want to switch, the option not to do so (as long as redirects exist) either "right away" or "ever"... So please get ready to participate, I think we do it as another poll perhaps. I'll seek those of you on IRC out later, but probably we need to do the actual voting on wiki.

As a reminder here's the poll for part 1: Wikipedia:State_route_naming_conventions_poll/Part1 and sure enough it says nothing about what states it applies to (only that two states get an exemption) ++Lar: t/c 20:30, 6 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thats fine with me, and my read on the situation (I've been following along at least until my nose starts to bleed from banging my head on the desk) is the same as yours. Syrthiss 21:26, 6 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Your input is requested here. I had hoped the participants might arrive at a consensus but they have not yet. They still could do so before we finish! Please comment or reshape the process if it's not to your liking, as well as refine my statement of the questions, and then comment as you see fit. Thanks. ++Lar: t/c 18:40, 7 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

DYK

Updated DYK query Did you know? was updated. On 7 September, 2006, a fact from the article Willi Ninja, which you recently nominated, has been featured in that section on the Main Page. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

You're here (as always) and you're sleepy :)

Hi,

Feel like closing those three annoying bottom DRV's that I can't, because I've commented? I wouldn't bother you, but I notice from Quadell's talk that you're in fine spirits, so this could truly be an adventure! ;) Wiki-love, Xoloz 16:41, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No wai. I don't want to do anything that requires involved thought at this point. I'd just as likely undelete a page and ban all the commenting editors or something equally idiotic (for example, it took me 8 tries to spell equally correct and I just screwed it up again writing this note). I can take a look tomorrow though. ZzZZzZZZzzzzZ --Syrthiss 16:45, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
You're not giving yourself enough credit: You, sleepy, are still worth at least a million normal minds! :) Nighty night, Xoloz 16:52, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you

thank you for adding the link to the photo without actually making the photo appear. Most appreciated Dean randall 17:14, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

thank you for pointing me to the Wiki definiton of a troll. I am shocked by the accusations he is making. I do not fit the criteria for a troll. He really needs to respond to my comments so we can resolve the situation. Dean randall 17:54, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
