Jplippstein re: Carter Harris

Hello Go Phightins. please help! I have had my first article deleted by you about Carter Harris. It took me awhile to figure out how to cite properly and the page was marked for deletion. I thought i had remedied the situation but then the page was deleted. I don't even know if this is the right forum. Please help direct me to how it can be re-listed. Thank you in advance. here is a link to Carter Harris IMDB [1] Jplippstein (talk) 23:29, 1 June 2014 (UTC)

@Jplippstein: If you want to recreate the article again, you can go ahead, but having just IMDb as a source isn't going to be enough. If you want to create the article, and lower the risk of having it deleted, you can create it as an Articles for Creation submission and have a reviewer see if it's fine, or as a draft in your userspace, at User:Jplippstein/Carter Harris, where you can develop it until you're ready to move it into article space.

@ZappaOMati: Thank you so much. Will do!

Thank you for your support

Ben, I would like to take this moment and thank you for the trust you had placed in me and for your support in my RfA that happened a while ago. Although it didn't turn out as I had planned, I certainly appreciated all the comments and suggestions given by you and other people. I will learn from all of them and will hopefully run again someday when I'm fully ready. Thank you. TheGeneralUser (talk) 13:22, 3 June 2014 (UTC)

No problem. - Ben

Yoda for Admin

I think Drmies is perfect to help guide you as a new Jedi...er admin. He has a good sense of humor as well.--Mark Miller (talk) 06:11, 1 June 2014 (UTC)

If he's willing, works for me :-) Go Phightins! 16:32, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
I didn't give him a choice and forced him to adopt me for a couple of months, along with oversite from a few others. You could do worse. Farmer Brown - 10:44, 3 June 2014 (UTC)
Don't think you're off the hook either, Dennis. If you refer to my updated user page, you will find that you, Drmies, and TP share that role :-) Go Phightins! 19:04, 3 June 2014 (UTC)

Your request for adminship

Hi Go Phightins!, I have closed your request for adminship as successful. Congratulations on the strength of support for your request and your place on WP:RFX100! As always, the administrators' reading list is worth a read and the new admin school is most certainly available if you feel that you might require some practice with the tools in a safe environment prior to applying them elsewhere. Good luck with your adminship! Acalamari 10:25, 29 May 2014 (UTC)

Hurray!
Here's the t-shirt you ordered

Welcome to the extra buttons - feel free to drop me a line if you need any help with your new superpowers. Yunshui  10:26, 29 May 2014 (UTC)

Congratulations... Matty.007 10:32, 29 May 2014 (UTC)
Well done on your successful RfA. Be sure to wield that mop with wisdom and calmness. —Tom Morris (talk) 10:44, 29 May 2014 (UTC)
Go, cheerful phighter! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:21, 29 May 2014 (UTC)

Well done - enjoy the mop! Brookie :) { - he's in the building somewhere!} (Whisper...) 12:17, 29 May 2014 (UTC)

"Be careful what you wish for. You just might get it." Congrats and good luck! Resolute 16:28, 29 May 2014 (UTC)
Second those sentiments... Good luck... but be careful so you dont wind up quitting the whole project as a result like several others have. Spanneraol (talk) 16:35, 29 May 2014 (UTC)
Congratulations! --Ixfd64 (talk) 17:19, 29 May 2014 (UTC)

If you'd like, your first act taking advantage of your admin permissions could be to send out the WP:BASEBALL newsletter on Saturday. I plan to complete copy editing on Friday and can give you the info required to do the mass mailing then. (I've never seen the interface, but I believe I have the info required for each field in the form, and from what I can gather, it seems straightforward enough to use.) isaacl (talk) 18:30, 29 May 2014 (UTC)

Congrats on your shiny new mop!! —  dainomite   19:15, 29 May 2014 (UTC)
As I saw the RfA progressing, all I could think of was a Harry Kalas-esque annoucement of "this RfA is outta here!!!!" Congrats.  :) I, JethroBT drop me a line 19:07, 30 May 2014 (UTC)
Me too, Jethro. Go Phightins! 01:03, 3 June 2014 (UTC)
Sorry I'm late. Congrats on becoming an admin! --AmaryllisGardener talk 21:41, 30 May 2014 (UTC)

Adoption Request

As you are probably aware, I voted for you during you Request for adminship. I have been reviewing your adoption course, and I don't yet understand Wikipedia and all of its rules. I am seeking adoption. Will you be so kind to adopt me? -- Mmddyy28 (Contact Me Here) 23:43, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

Hi Mmddyy28. With the new tools, I don't have a ton of extra time for adoption right now, but let me ping Tazerdadog. as perhaps he can run you through my course. Go Phightins! 21:38, 7 June 2014 (UTC)
Hello Mmddyy28. I would be delighted to run you through the course if you would like. Phightins, would you like to use the same arrangement we used for JHUbal? Tazerdadog (talk) 19:28, 8 June 2014 (UTC)
Whatever works for you, Tazerdadog. I trust you to handle the course; if you want to do it in my userspace, that's fine, if you want to do it in yours, that's fine too. I can pop in if you need my help, but I trust that you can pretty much run the course. Thanks a million. Go Phightins! 19:30, 8 June 2014 (UTC)
Ok Mmddyy28, Go Phightins!, I have gone ahead and made the adoption page. You can find it here. Best of luck! Tazerdadog (talk) 19:57, 8 June 2014 (UTC)

Belated Congratulations

on your excellent stroll through the RfA park :) --KudpungMobile (talk) 20:02, 8 June 2014 (UTC)

And He's Back

And User:Robert Dell is back, [1] though, this time he's more passive aggressive than last time.--Mr Fink (talk) 14:45, 8 June 2014 (UTC)

Hey Apokryltaros. Remind me, how do I know this user? The username is vaguely familiar, but I can't remember why ... Go Phightins! 17:22, 8 June 2014 (UTC)
Earlier this month, Robert Dell leaved an incoherent rant about "rich man's wiki" in response to a warning I put on his page for misusing a talkpage as a forum thread over a month ago. When I reported him at the Vandalism noticeboard, you declined on the grounds that he edits very infrequently (i.e., in month-long intervals), and then advised me to re-report him to you or the noticeboard should he return. And he returned earlier today, again angry for having dared to warn him, and also demanding that I remove his name from a spam filter he apparently traced to Wikipedia that was, according to his latest rant, blocking him from getting a job for the last five years or something. But, then we had a long and frustrating talk, and I think the matter has been straightened out for now. So, please forgive me for bothering you.--Mr Fink (talk) 20:25, 8 June 2014 (UTC)
