Hello there, I 'm The Random Editor. You may have seen me on WP:MOTTO or you may have never heard of me. I trying to make some friends on Wikipedia, and you looked like a good candidate for the position. I have been on wikipedia for three months, though I have really only gotten in around 1 month's worth of edits. Drop by my talk page and leave me a message. Once again, I just thought I would say hi. -- Random Say it here! 19:52, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
Thanks about my sig, and no way do I want a friendship to interfere with editing. The main reason we are he is to build an encylopedia, right? I'm going to add you to the Friend section on my userpage. Okay. Later. --

Sure, but it may be a while as I am about to go to the movies. On a related note, {{ Motd nomclosing}}, which I created, can be used when someone is closing many mottoes at once. I will close (or reopen) all of the ones that you've not already done, but I just wanted you to be wary that, due to real-life goings on, I may not do it immediately. ~ Magnus animum ∵ ∫ φ γ 18:08, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
Done with the archiving. ~ Magnus animum ∵ ∫ φ γ 23:55, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
(I just noticed your comment on Magnus animum's talk page.) If it helps any, I'll explain how I close nominations. I begin by opening two tabs on my web browser. One is the nominations page ("Awaiting decision"), and the other is the editing window of the nominations page ("Awaiting decision"). I view the actual page to determine consensus, because it is much easier to read, and simultaneously use the edit window to mark my decision. I do it one motto at a time, but only click the save button once (as opposed to section editing). Of course, before I click "Save", I preview the page to make sure I didn't mess up (but I usually do at least once per mass closing). After that, I move the reopened mottos by a (very) careful cut/paste procedure, using the same two window procedure (although I open a third window to edit the "In review" page), and then go from there to archive the discussions and schedule the approved mottos. When I'm done, it's helpful to view my watchlist to see that the number of bytes removed from one page is the same as the number of bytes added to the other page. -- Tewy 22:28, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
helpme|I don't really need help, so just ignore this.
As you probably aware, the Stoop!d Monkey page was the subject of an AfD and the result was, of course, "Keep". Currently, the logos are a point of contention with myself saying that they were part of the "Keep", while User:Calton saying they were to be dropped and the article was to remain.
I asked the admin who closed the AfD his opinion and he replied, "I just said the article was to be kept, I don't know about the logos". There wasn't a decision given on the logos and in the AfD only 3 users said the logos should go, only 1 said keep the article, lose the logos.
I am not sure how to handle this, but since the admin who closed the AfD made no decision and the AfD wasn't about the logos in the first place (and the majority said to keep the logos if you want to be picky about it, as far as I can tell).
This wasn't an issue from April 16th (immediately after the AfD) to May 3rd when User:Calton realized that I was blocked for 48hours (not related to this) and I couldn't revert his changes. User:Calton had no interest and made no changes on the page itself or the talk page during that time. So, to me, his initial revert on May 3rd was done because of my block.
I have asked two admins (in case one is offline) to revert his changes and put a block on the page until this can be worked out. I am also asking you, since you contributed to the AfD, what your opinion is on just the logos themselves. I appericate you input one way or the other. Thanks...

Just to let you know, if Husond is too busy, I'm more than happy to be your admin coach. I've been very impressed with what you and Magnus have done. Ryan Postlethwaite 22:30, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
Hello Cremepuff222! That's excellent that you're getting admininistrator coaching from Ryan Postlethwaite: he'll be a good teacher. I checked your edit count and again I must say that I am pleased you listened to your editor review: your Wikipedia edits are approaching 1000, and your mainspace are already above 1200. Plus, you're involved with XfD's, and getting more involved in the RfA's. You're a good listener...and that's a very good sign.
As for my next RfA...that won't be for a while. I am not going to rush to my next nomination: instead, I plan to wait and gain more experience. I have learned much since March 28 (the closing date of my first RfA), but I feel I haven't learned enough just yet. Sure, I am a much calmer now, and less thin-skinned (as well as less prone to over-reaction), but there are still a couple of other issues which I am still working on. :)
Anyway, thanks for your message. I am glad to see you are working hard. :) Acalamari 02:07, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
Check the above page for some new tasks (there's 2 new ones to be done over the week).

Hope this is OK with you, let me know if you have any problems. Ryan Postlethwaite 17:03, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
Hi, Tewy. I just got done closing about fify bazillion mottoes, and one of them, located at Wikipedia:Motto of the day/February 7, 2008, gets all wacky on the scedule page. Did I do something wrong? *Cremepuff 222* 00:30, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
Hi, {{BASEPAGENAME}}. It's been a while since we last talked, and I have to say that I'm a bit disappointed that you haven't contacted me in any way recently. Also, you haven't completed any of your assignments, so please get to work. If you would like to continue the adoption, please tell me on my talk page within 1 week. If there are any issues in real life that are stopping you from editing, I'll understand, but please tell me. I'll be awaiting your reply (and sorry if this message sounded like I was angry, I'm not). :) *Cremepuff 222* 00:43, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
I'd suggest you read our article on combatting systemic bias in Wikipedia before you vote on any further on articles for deletion. Wikipedia isn't just for Americans or for Anglophones. If someone's notable in Turkey, they're notable enough for Wikipedia. If anything, we don't have enough articles on people, places, and items that aren't well-known among tech-savvy young American males. And yes, a writer who writes in a language other than English is held to exactly the same notability standards as one that writes in English. Alexander Solzhenitsyn is as notable to the English Wikipedia as he is to the Russian Wikipedia. Franz Kafka is as notable to us as to the Czech Wikipedia.
Sorry to harp on this, but this is a very common attitude among young male American Wikipedians - that somehow whatever they already know about or deal with on a daily basis is more notable than what they assume (usually wrongly) will never affect them personally. -- Charlene 05:02, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
somehow it didn't show when you leave the last message....well, to be frank, adoption program seems fun and I wanted to try it. I am comfortable to be on my own now ;) , and, you did help me XD. thank, peace. Rockvee 21:00, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Hi, TomasBat. Thanks for your contributions at WP:MOTD, but can you please justify your reasons for supporting/opposing the mottoes you vote on?

Woah, that's a lot of mottoes you just nominated! ;) You're making it tough for the people who close the mottoes though..., and your help in this area would be much appreciated. *Cremepuff 222* 00:37, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
(Shhh, nobody knows that I'm not at track...) XD You always make me laugh... Now, back to business. First, I open the Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/In review page, then cut and paste the mottoes older than 14 days into Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations#Awaiting decision. At that point, I open up three tabs: one for the archive, one for approved mottoes, and one for reopened mottoes. (So at this point, I'll have four tabs: one for the mottoes I'm closing, one for archiving, one for approved mottoes, and one for reopened mottoes). Next, I edit each motto in the awaiting decision by section. After that, I move the motto to the appropriate page (in review for reopened mottoes, approved for approved mottoes, and archive for approved/rejected mottoes). Well, that's pretty much it I suppose. If you have any more questions, or if I wasn't very clear, please tell me. *Cremepuff 222* 22:31, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
I wanted to thank you for the constructive comments you made on my RfA. It looks like my laziness previously when it comes to the edit summary field has reared it's ugly head!

Hi. Since your page is in my watchlist, I noticed something strange. It seems that your pages are edited by User:Cremepuff222 (userspace). Why is this? I wold think that this would be the name for a userspace page, not an actual editor. Is that editor the same as you? This may confuse some people, as the talkpage for that user is redlinked. Should it be changed into a redirect for this page? See: User:Cremepuff222 (userspace) ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs). This is clearly a user, probably you, but I think its talkpage should redirect to here. Does that mean you have 2 accounts? Is that account soley meant for userspace? Would it make new messages confusing? Does it even matter? Thanks. -- A stroHurricane00 1( T+ C+ U) 17:20, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

Hey Cremepuff222, I noticed your name on Trading Spaces and I'm wondering if you would be willing to take a look at my page, particularly my subpage on userboxes, transcluded onto my main page. I have been having problems with the "Entertainment" and "Diet" sections of it under both firefox and IE (particularly firefox which I exclusively use on my own computer) and I can't seem to figure out what to do. I notice the design is similar, in vein, to your userbox page. I am horrible at coding (I am more of a cut and paste type of person and then troubleshoot from there) and can't seem to figure out what is wrong, either with my code, or particular userboxes themselves, but I have changed the design many times in order to fix the problems of the userboxes not sticking to one column and the automatic clearing malfunctioning... massive headaches all around, you should see what it does to my main page from top to bottom. Would you be willing to help me fix this problem, perhaps overhauling the code if needed (ie: If I royally screwed up)? If you can think of any design ideas for my page, I am also considering an overhaul of the page. Thanks! -- Valley2city ₪‽ 04:26, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
