Hi Minesweeper.007, good luck on your RfA. I'm sure (from your last RfA that you'll do great with vandalfighting. It seems we both had old usernames. I was User:Wikipedier. Again, best of luck.--U.S.A. (talk contribs) 23:17, 12 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

[1] - I wish you good luck and hope you'll stick around for your next RfA. :) Spawn Man 02:20, 14 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

One Page[edit]

Hi Minesweeper, I just had a question about one of the pages I saw in CSD under your db-author requests. For some reason the CSD list shows User:Minesweeper.007/Top Dog as a page you requested to delete yet I do not see you placing the tag on that page anywhere in its edit history. Just wanted to confirm with you whether or not you want to keep the page? Thanks.¤~Persian Poet Gal (talk) 19:08, 19 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks[edit]

Thanks MS :). So, how's life? The Hybrid 04:27, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Warriors[edit]

What do you think you're doing to all of the Warriors articles!? They were fine how they were. Nowhere were these sort of changes -ever - discussed, and I don't see them as needed in the least. As such, I'm reverting all of your edits. --~|ET|~(Talk|Contribs) 23:24, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You don't have to come on so strongly, Electric! Mine's just being bold. But, ElectricTurahk DOES prove a point about not discussing it first, Minesweeper. Even though we're not restricted into making such an edit, it's best to talk it through on the talk pages first. Otherwise, as you can see already, people can get angry or confused about it. §ροττεδςταr(Talk|Contribs) 23:30, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, perhaps I was coming on strong (And my apologies for that - I was rash, and quick to react and judge. Far too quick to think rationally.), but I saw absolutely no reason to go and change it (Which is why discussing things was best). What was moved I see as being just fine the way it was. We don't need individual articles for everything on the Clans page (Nor do I imagine we would be allowed, seeing as there is the pre-existing page). And the characters pages are best organized (And limited in length) by being grouped in accordance go Clan (or other groups). --~|ET|~(Talk|Contribs) 23:33, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Might I also add that I had spent several hours fixing up the Clans page, and when I saw large amounts of text being removed, I was alarmed - At first, I thought it was vandalism, but then I saw that you were redirecting to a bunch of new pages... I felt as if my work was for nothing. And, yes, that set me off and spawned my offensive language, but in no way does that mean it was acceptable. I apologize for that and have removed it from my original message, but, unfortunately, that cannot be done to edit summaries... --~|ET|~(Talk|Contribs) 23:41, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Admin coaching[edit]

The opposes on the RFAs where mostly based on your edit pattern than anything else, I would suggest that you edit more in administrative areas of the project, try to cooperate in WP:XFDs as much as possible maybe even daily. Besides that you need to rise your number of edits in the main space to impress those users suffering from editcountitis, which unfortunately are a lot at RFAs, an easy way to do this is to work some articles to GA standard this will not only increase your edit number but convince people that your work is being particularly constructive. One last thing is the responses to the RFA questions, as you work in more administrative areas you should define which one of them will have your attention most of the time. I see no mayjr problem with your contributions to the project, if you follow the suggestions above and keep a steady number of monthly edits you should be able to pass a RFA in some months, if you need further help just leave me a message, cheers. - Caribbean~H.Q. 00:56, 29 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
