My RFA

Thank you very much for supporting my rather contentious request for adminship, but now that I've been promoted, I'd like to do a little dance here *DANCES*. If you have any specific issues/problems with me, please feel free to state them on my talk page so that I can work to prevent them in the future, and thanks once again!

Hi DreamGuy, can you give source and author information about the pic? Thanks a lot! --Avatar-en 07:28, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

... The card comes from the inkblot test, but made solid tone instead of in the original grayscale. What do you mean author information? Rorschech inkblot test card, coverted by me, public domain, nothing else is needed. Do you not understand how public domain works? DreamGuy 23:27, 14 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the info. Please take a look at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags. It's hard to verify the claim of public domain, without data to verify it. I appended some info to the picture description. --Avatar-en 07:54, 15 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

List of social networking websites

Hi. Please go back to the List of social networking websites and re-add an amended reference to Xing's updated figures. The URL you added was incorrect, and visitors clicking the link were taken to a page which did not show the new usercount. Thanks. Refsworldlee^(chew-fat)(eds) 18:14, 19 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hm. Thanks for the info. Well - the link works for me, but not for MediaWiki. Most probably the brackets are the problem. --Avatar 13:42, 20 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

News on Flagged Revs?

I have taken your name in vain at the Signpost tip line, I hope you don't mind. I'm sure I am not the only one eager to hear how things are progressing with Flagged Revisions. By "regular updates" I meant something like every two or three weeks at first, slowing down or stopping when the system settles down. PaddyLeahy (talk) 01:59, 23 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, I'll try to give some meaningful updates in the future. --Avatar (talk) 07:16, 23 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Poll on de.wiki regarding flagged revisions

Hello Avatar. From [1] the poll on de.wiki I've gleaned the following counts of opinions. Can you tell me if I at least got the headings correct?

Pro: 75 comments

Contra: 113 comments

Don't know/Can't decide: 2 comments

I decline to debate this question: 21 comments

I endorse this inquiry: 7 comments

I decline to even consider whether this question is meaningful or not: 7 comments

For my next foray into the German language, I'm hoping to figure out the major points that each group is trying to make!

Thanks, EdJohnston (talk) 01:31, 28 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your translation is accurate. "Gut gemacht!". Personal remark: I don't think that this poll is very accurate itself. Many temporary polls were created about the stable versions and many people got tired of answering those. Many advocates of the idea and 'normal' users haven't signed this poll (but I have to admit, there are a few well known editors on the contra side). --Avatar (talk) 04:40, 28 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

0.7

Tim, if you get a chance, please skim WT:MOS#TLDR, which is about Version 0.7, aimed at recent questions from style people. In particular, I'd love to talk more with you some time about ComCom's view, and I'll be talking with Raul654 too. The No. 1 concern about Version 0.7 among my wikicolleagues is that it might harm Wikipedia's image. My feeling is that that's ComCom's area of expertise and concern, and that having ComCom weigh in on this will go a long way towards defining the problem and reducing anxieties. (Feel free to respond here or anywhere, or not at all.) - Dan Dank55 (send/receive) 14:54, 12 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

An unreferenced article since 2005.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
