My RFA[edit]

Whether you supported, opposed, or were neutral, thank you for participating in my RFA, which was successful. I started several days ago on the constructive comments. RlevseTalk 18:18, 7 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Forgive my boldness[edit]

I'm correcting your userpage link above. I hope you don't mind. Chick Bowen 04:15, 14 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, that's fine. Thanks. :) LaraLove 16:29, 14 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Many Thanks[edit]

Dear Indubitably,
Thank you for taking part in my Requests for Adminship. The RfA was successful and I am now an administrator here. There were concerns over my temperament from respected editors, and I have taken these concerns on board, with the aim of being a more polite and courteous administrator both here and on the English Wikipedia. If you need help with anything, here or on the English Wikipedia, such as history from deleted images and such, please don't hesitate to shout. My door is always open, so to speak. Nick 20:42, 6 January 2008 (UTC).

Before I say this, let me first say that I'm a little cranky due to the behaviour of one of my friends a bit earlier, so if this comes off too harsh, it's probably more that coming out than real upset at you personally. I do feel there's an issue here, but, you know.

As one of the opposes, and an editor in good standing with 20 Featured pictures, a little over half of which I researched and uploaded myself, often from original documents, I find your dismissal of all oppose votes as an en-wiki clique on that page insulting. It dismisses what I feel are genuine concerns with his statements on privacy without looking into the merit of them. You have ever right to differ in your opinion, of course, but I'd ask you not to simply dismiss people who have differing views. Adam Cuerden (talk) 22:16, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for clarifying =) I'm not sure I agree with your interpretation of the position - I've heard there's been several outing scandals on en-wiki lately, so I see it as more of "understandable sensitivity" from the people coming from there. This whole thing's a bit of a powderkeg, and I'm really getting annoyed at how Lar is handling it, but trust me when I say that I still respect you, and that one somewhat-poorly-phrased vote is not going to change that =).
By the way, one part of my first comment unintentionally used rather loaded language, which makes it sound far worse than I intended. I've struck that part. The whole thing could have been written a bit better, but, well, I did post a warning at the top. =) Adam Cuerden (talk) 15:26, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure we can safely presume what information about Durova got revealed. I mean, finding out would probably be inappropriate. Beyond that, hard to say. I did hear there was a threat to out the entire Wikiproject Intelligent design recently, so that's probably going to heighten privacy issues for them, and might make them act more like a group than they otherwise would. I think the problem I have is, for me, the diffs presented are pretty convincing - there's a diff where he says that linking to direct outing of editors is not a problem in the context of a report on Wikipedia at Wikiversity. There might be arguments for that, but they shouldn't be coming from a person being given access to confidential information about privacy. Adam Cuerden (talk) 18:31, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Adam, come on over to Wikiversity and join us in a collegial dialogue on the issues. —Moulton (talk) 15:11, 7 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

RfA thanks[edit]
