A note from the Admin Coaching coordinator

[edit]

Hello, coaches. As you can see, there is a significant backlog at the Esperanza Admin Coaching program. Since we do not want users to have to wait forever to get assigned, I'm asking all of you for a status report. If you feel that you are done, that your coachee is not active enough, or that you could handle the extra load from another coachee, please tell me in my talk page as soon as possible. Thanks! Titoxd(?!? - help us) 06:51, 26 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

User page....

[edit]

I was admiring your user page earlier and it got me thinking about overhauling mine (I loathe my user page...) So do you mind if I "borrow" the look of yours? All the boxes and stuff make it look neat and professional. I will change the color and that so it doesn't look identical. Thunderbrand 21:33, 26 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Cool. I'll get to work on it. Thunderbrand 01:13, 27 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You're welcome, and thanks! Robert 23:29, 3 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, you closed the AFD for List of International Baccalaureate schools as keep. With 7 keeps, 6 deletes and one merge it should have probably been a no consensus instead. - ulayiti (talk) 17:18, 4 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, my bad (I can't count any more it seems...), but I might still have closed it as no consensus myself. But sure, it's your call and I respect that. - ulayiti (talk) 17:31, 4 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My RfA

[edit]

Thank you for your support in my request for adminship. I'm delighted that the RfA succeeded with a final consensus of 52/17/7, and receiving comments including having 'excellent potential to become a great moderator', and I am now an administrator. It did however only just pass, and I shall do my very best to rectify any of my errors, including the general belief that I should do more article work. If you have any concerns, or if you ever feel that I may be able to help you, please feel free to leave a message on my talk page. Again, thank you!

regarding Wikipedia edit

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia&oldid=42235572 <<that was a mistake, meant to revert it to the older version. Chris Chan.talk.contribs 20:31, 4 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I figured you didn't mean to do that. No worries. Robert 20:33, 4 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Saison Dupont

[edit]

Why is everyone so worked up over deleting articles? The Saison Dupont, should have been edited or perhaps retitled "Brasserie Dupont" but deleted? I dont get it. Mind boggling. Naerhu 07:44, 7 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I don't understand this either, I think questionable articles should stay, It's not like the Wikipedia servers can't handle the volume. --69.232.218.27 07:46, 7 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

...That was almost two months ago. Take it to WP:DRV if you want it undeleted. Robert 13:35, 7 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your support in my RFA. The final vote count was (66/2/3), 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! Stifle 17:02, 7 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hii...

Sorry about this....but a page Spawn Man had created and put as a sub-page on his user page has been put up on AfD.... i really see nothing wrong in the page but still people are fighting over it.... and SpawnMan has lost all faith in Wikipedia.... It'd really be nice of you if you could lend your support to Keep the page....as it does not violate any rules of user pages... any kind of support would be truly appreciated...... Thanks a lot!!!

Esperanza Newsletter, Issue #1

[edit]
Reach out is a program aimed at allowing users to bring issues that they have had in Wikipedia to a listening, sympathetic and caring audience:
"No one can know how we feel if we do not say. We cannot expect to get understanding if we do not ask for it. No one will dispute that sometimes life's issues are too much for one person. It is fair to say that sometimes Wikipedia's problems fall under the same heading. This is a place where you can bring the bruises that can sometimes be got on this project for attention."
The Stress alerts program aims at identifying users who are stressed, alerting the community of thier stress and works in tandem with the Stressbusters at trying to identify causes of stress and eliminating them.
Note from the editor
Welcome to this new format of the Esperanza Newsletter, which came about during the last Advisory Council meeting - we hope you like it! The major changes are that each month, right after the Council meeting, this will be sent out and will include two featured programs and a sum up of the meeting. Also, it will be signed by all of the Advisory Council members, not just Celestianpower. Have an Esperanzial end of March, everyone!
  1. Future meetings are to be held monthly, not fortnightly as before.
  2. Bans and Access level changes (apart from autovoice) in the IRC channel are to be reported at the new log.
  3. In the IRC channel, there is going to be only one bot at a time.
  4. The charter requires members to have 150 edits and 2 weeks editing. Why this is the case will be clarified.
  5. A new Code of Conduct will be drafted by JoanneB and proposed to the Esperanza community.
  6. The NPA reform idea is to be dropped officially.
  7. Charter ammendments are to be discussed in future, not voted on.
  8. The Advisory Council is not going to be proposed to be expanded by the Advisory Council themselves, if others want to propose it, they will listen.
Signed...

Wikipedia survey

[edit]

Hi. I'm doing a survey of Wikipedia editors as part of a class research project. It's quick, anonymous, and the data will be made available to the Wikipedia community later this month. Would you like to take part? More info here. Thanks! Nonplus 00:18, 2 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Admin coaching

[edit]

Hi! While User:Titoxd is on a Wikibreak, he gave me permission to do some leg-work concerning Esperanza admin coaching. I was curious how your coaching with User:Brusselsshrek is going. If it is finished (or even if it isn't), would you be able to take on another coachee? Don't feel guilty if you don't have the time- I perfectly understand, and wouldn't want anyone feel overworked. Thanks for all your time! EWS23 | (Leave me a message!) 04:38, 5 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your response. I have assigned User:Wisden17 as your coachee. Thanks for all your support of the admin coaching program, and let me know if you have any questions. EWS23 | (Leave me a message!) 05:47, 6 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jaxl, I'm your new coachee. I've added you onto my MSN contact list, if you wonder who that is who has just added you. I've been on Wikipedia for about 7/8 months, but only had a registered accound since January '06. I've done a fair bit of Vandalism reverts and warnings, done a bit of Welcomming new users, contributtin to articles, I've started one or two articles, and got AWB yesterday. I would like to become an admin, but at the present time think that I would get a lot of negative votes due to my low edit count (roughly 600 can never tell with the time lag on Kate and Interiots' tools), and my short time as a registered user. I'd be interested in any help you could give me to become not only an admin but just generally a better Wikipedian. --Wisden17 11:04, 6 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Robert, thanks for your quick reply. I've tried to get invovled on Wikipedia in as many ways as possible. I've just, about, finished my first Mediation case, which has been fun. So hopefully will be on the Mediation Committee in the not too distant future. Drini has set up an admin coaching page! So if we try and conduct all the admin coaching on that page and it's talk page, it'll probably be the easiest. Look forward to learning as much as possible off both of you. --Wisden17 21:51, 6 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Esperanza Newsletter, Issue #2

[edit]
The Barnstar Brigade is a new program aimed at giving more very deserving yet unappreciated users barnstars. It will officially start on 2006-04-09, but signing up is encouraged before this date:
"Here in Wikipedia, there are hundreds of wikipedians whose work and efforts go un-appreciated. One occasionally comes across editors who have thousands of good edits, but because they may not get around as much as others, their contributions and hard work often go un-noticed. Sadly, these editors often leave the project. As Esperanzians, we can help to make people feel appreciated, be it by some kind words or the awarding of a Barnstar. A project the size of Wikipedia has thousands of editors, so there are plenty of people out there who deserve recognition, one just has to find them. The object of this program is not to flood editors with Barnstars, but to seek out people who deserve them, and make them feel appreciated."
The Stress alerts program aims at identifying users who are stressed, alerting the community of thier stress and works in tandem with the Stressbusters at trying to identify causes of stress and eliminating them.
Information
Welcome to the second issue of the new format Esperanza Newsletter - we hope you still like it! This week, it was delivered diligently by our new dogsbody. MiszaBot (run by Misza13): any execution complaints should go to him. Content comments should be directed at the Esperanza talkpage. Thanks!
  1. The next elections: Approval voting as before and, also as before, an previous leadership member can run. Please submit your name for voting in the relevant section of this page. Voting starts on 2006-04-23 and ends on 2006-04-30. There will be three places up for grabs as KnowledgeOfSelf is leaving Wikipedia. Please see the previously linked page for full details.
  2. The Code of Conduct is now ready for extensive discussion! Specific comments should go to the Code of Conduct talk page, discussion of having one at all should be directed to the main Esperanza talk page.
  3. The current process for accepting proposals for new programs has been deemed fine. All Advisory Council members and the Admin Gen are to endevour to be bold when viewing discussion. If they feel that consensus has been reached, they will act accordingly.
A plea from the editor...
The propsed programs page is terribly underused! Please leave any comments, good or bad, on the page, to help us determine the membership's thoughts on the ideas there.

Other councillor articles

[edit]

Hi there. I see you closes the John Goodfellow AfD and deleted the article. There are many other almost identical councillor articles for the same council (North Tyneside Council). The creator of the articles understands that councillors don't meet WP:BIO and has unlinked them from the council article, but the stubs still exist - they are linked to from this diff.

Should I flag these one by one as speedies, or would you or another admin be able to speedy them all straight off? They make no assertion of notability (given that being a local counillor doesn't count). Thanks. —Whouk (talk) 15:42, 16 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, sorry, I should have included that option. I'd already done that with one of them so I'll go ahead and do it with the rest. Thanks. —Whouk (talk) 15:51, 16 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
