What do you think about his RfA? My first student is having his RfA now, but he only has a 25% support rating. Electriccatfish2 (talk) 11:47, 8 July 2012 (UTC)

Probably neutral. Although I think in time he will make a good admin, I think the answer to question 7 was poor, it being just block the editor and I agree with Toddst1 in the oppose.--Chip123456 (talk) 13:10, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
What bothers me is that when I assigned him to read WP: EW, I asked when does the 3RR not apply and he got it wrong. You can revert vandalism and BLP violations. Had he not been my student, I'd be neutral, but he has helped me out with content creation, so I supported him. Electriccatfish2 (talk) 14:44, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
Um, yes. I think, as it stands, the RFA will not succeed, but that in a way is not a bad thing, he can learn where his mistakes are and recitfy them. Some of the best admins fail their first RfA.--Chip123456 (talk) 15:59, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
Yes, it probably will fail. I gave him the idea to run in the first place, so I feel bad about that, but RfA's take a lot of planning. I am planning mine even though it's not until January. I think that both Q7 and Todd1st will tank it. Electriccatfish2 (talk) 16:22, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
Yes, always good to plan ahead, thinking about answers to questions. Im just doing some reviewing with the AFT5 tool at the moment. I noticed that on Dan's page you said it doesnt appear in contributions............it appears in your log instead.--Chip123456 (talk) 16:33, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
Yes, but the voters don't see it. As of last night (Rep. lag), I had over 6,000 edits. You can find the feedback on Special: ArticleFeedbackv5. I occasionally go there and do a little work there. You feature informative feedback, Hide inappropriate feedback, and Request Oversight on feedback that contains personal information. I got the reviewer right, so I might as well use it, but I wonder if Pending Changes will be coming back. If you have any suggestions on the tool, tell IronHolds. I have the generic 3 questions already prepared and have 8 potential nominators, including 2 sysops so far, so I'm deciding who I want to nominate me. Electriccatfish2 (talk) 16:47, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
Yes, I have the reviewer right as well, and I know how to use it! One thing - I have seen an RfA before, and some editors didnt like the fact they had so many nominators, so I would recommend 3 noms, I dont know if others would agree with me, but its just what I saw. That user passed their RfA, though.--Chip123456 (talk) 16:51, 8 July 2012 (UTC)

Yes, that's one of the conflicts. I'm not going to deny TParis or ItsZippy as noms because they're both admins. I wasn't going to let Dan653, Ebikeguy, Calu2000 nominate me because although I regularly interact with them, they don't have anything to do with my work here. I would love to have you because we regularly interact here and you also know about my anti-vandalism work here. I want to let Keystonedrin be a nom because although I have some experience in AfD's, I only have about a 75% consensus rating and I made a few bad AfD noms, and Keystonedrin is someone who I regularly do new page patrolling with. Hahc21 has been my content creation coach, so I want him in, too. I really don't know what to do. Electriccatfish2 (talk) 17:00, 8 July 2012 (UTC)

I wouldnt mind nominating you, you'd be a great admin. Thanks for the consideration. You have a good 6 months to decide anyway. I dont think that having me to nomiate you would do any favours, but would I strongly consider if asked.--Chip123456 (talk) 17:04, 8 July 2012 (UTC)

CSD Log

Hi Chip! First of all, I am disappointed to see Acho go. Second of all, if I were to start a CSD log (Twinkle), would it have all of my prior CSD tags (about 250) logged on it, or would it just have the ones that I make after enabling it? Thanks, Electriccatfish2 (talk) 20:00, 11 July 2012 (UTC).

(talk page stalker) I'll take this, because I answered the same Q for Chip some weeks ago! It's (b) - the log will record only those CSDs made after enabling. --Redrose64 (talk) 20:05, 11 July 2012 (UTC)
Thanks! Electriccatfish2 (talk) 20:05, 11 July 2012 (UTC)
But, I think there is another full log which is only visible to admins. Thanks for stepping in, Red.--Chip123456 (talk) 06:27, 12 July 2012 (UTC)

Hello Chip123456 I would like to bring this discussion to you attention. Please feel free to post any comments, concerns or questions. Thank you. Mlpearc (powwow) 22:36, 14 July 2012 (UTC)

Thank you--Chip123456 (talk) 09:08, 15 July 2012 (UTC)


Hi Chip, I'll post here to avoid creating another section, but I've started a similar discussion at WT:RPP. Callanecc (talkcontribs) talkback (etc) template appreciated. 11:52, 15 July 2012 (UTC)

Thank you--Chip123456 (talk) 12:04, 15 July 2012 (UTC)
