== back as promised ==
Remember [[User:R:128.40.76.3]]? Well, I'm tempted to not play so nice, so I'd like you (or some of the many people who visit this page) to take another look at his edits in the last some days. Consider the article [[Patrick DeMeyer]] which he has just created and which seems to have been deleted a number of times; consider that he may also be [[User:128.40.76.3]] (and more?). And maybe take a look at what has been going on at [[Edward J. Steele]]. Thank, [[User:Jack Merridew|Jack Merridew]] 15:05, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
Revision as of 15:05, 14 August 2007
Phaedriel is currently wiki-exhausted and is operating at a lower edit level than usual. Exhaustion is a temporary condition, and the user should return to normal edit levels in time.
Welcome to my Talk Page!
I normally will respond on your own talk page, not here. I don't want to deprive you of the pleasure of watching a beautiful orange bar cheering your sight up :)
I usually archive discussions when this page exceeds 40 topics. Of course, at some moments of laziness, this page may contain way more than that. But please, don't panic - I'm too good at that without your help!
Needless to say, I have one golden rule I like to be observed at my Talk page: be nice, be nice, and after that, be nice. If after reading this, you still feel the urge to squeeze my neck for any reason, please visit this page, take a deep breath, and come back - I'll be waiting here! :)
You may of course post here regarding admin-related matters or requests for administrative help. Such messages have my absolute priority when replying. In extremely urgent cases, you may also wish to email me here. I'll address your concerns as fast as my human capacities permit.
Sometimes it may take me long to reply to you, but I invariably will try. If a few days pass without reply, please forgive me - I'll get back to you as soon as I possibly can, I swear!
Well done a good year of admin work....I'm actually four days late and I am surprised that nobody else has noticed the anniversary of your record breaking RfA....Very surprising. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 03:33, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oh my goodness, really? Congratulations! Now as of this time you have... 3315 deletions, 39 undeletions, 271 blocks, 18 unblocks, 154 protections and 25 unprotections (I'm not crazy, I got it from here :p) Not shabby for a year's work! Here's hoping there are many more to come :) ~ Riana ⁂ 03:55, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Happy anniversary, Sharon! :D (That sounded kind of weird…) — $PЯINGεrαgђ 03:59, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you, thank you all! :) (actually, it's not really that bad, considering my long absence, isn't it, guys? ;) I promise at least twice as many before the end of the year! Wait... that's only only 5 months away! I'd better get to work... Lots of xoxox! Phaedriel - 04:02, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Hey - happy admin anniversary! Wow - one year using the tools absolutely excellently. One year since you broke that record with flying colours... -- Anonymous DissidentTalk 05:10, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, Sweetie. I want to let you know that your userpage is not protected after you deleted your history link. Just want to let you know. Take care :) KingLopezContribs 08:56, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Happy Administrator Anniversary to you Phaedriel. :) Acalamari 15:43, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Wow—a year? That simultaneously feels like yesterday and a lifetime ago :) I hope I'm not too burned out by the time mine comes along :P Fvasconcellos (t·c) 15:52, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Wow. Congratulations on your anniversary! Here's some chocolate as a present, and to help you get back on your feet! And, no matter your religion, may you be blessed.
Irish Blessing May the road rise to meet you May the wind blow at your back May the sum shine warm upon your face May the rain fall soft upon your fields And until we meet again Until we meet again May God hold you in the palm of his hand
I hope you are having a good break, and are doing well!

Wow, one year as an admin? Feels like you've been one forever. Wizardman 17:17, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Speaking of Irish blessings, here's my personal one. "May your home be always too small to hold all of your friends." :) — $PЯINGεrαgђ 18:02, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wow, it has been a year already? congrats Sharon! Karrmann 01:33, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you all so very, very much for remembering, and your incredibly kind words, friends! :) Love you all beyond words, Phaedriel - 20:40, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
OK, I am a day behind, but Happy Adminiversary!! Many, many Congrats are in order:) This time I brought you a piece of cake, instead of stealing it :o) NeutralHomerT:C 20:56, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry to bother you again on your wikibreak, but it seems that the dispute over the redirection of Chris Conley still has not been resolved. It seems that while I was blocked Eusebeus has redirected the article. Comments were left in regards to the redirect on the page Saves the Day and another editor has reverted the article, which Eusebeus has redirected again, citing sockpuppetry and COI (but failing to leave any kind of comment on the relevant discussion pages). As I was blocked from editing, I fail to understand how this could be the case, and a quick WHOIS search shows that the editing IP's come from manchester UK, and somewhere in Australia. So it appears that an edit war is still continuing. Rather than participate further in this and get blocked again, I thought was best to leave you a note here.
FYI, the main reason why I redirected the article in the first place is because Chris Conley is also a successful touring solo artist (a quick google search can confirm this), and hence notable enough to warrent his own article. I also find it interesting that a number of other editors have contributed to the article after I undid the original redirect on July 28 [1]. Thanks, and sorry again for dragging you outof your wikibreak. R:128.40.76.3 09:20, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Phaedriel, you don't need to bother with this - Jack and I can resolve it through the talk page. Grrr. Bloody fans! If you care enough you could do a checkuser on these "other editors" that are referenced above since I think some meat /sock farming is going on. As long as they contain their disruption to this musician's page, however, it is unimportant. Eusebeus 12:37, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Wait a second, I am trying to sort out a dispute in a civilised manner and in the process being accused (unfoundly) of meat/sockpuppety when Eusebeus is posting blantant meatpuppety by trying to bring Jack Merridew into the argument to support his opinion here [2]. I fail to see how editing by others is a disruption to this page and think the general community opinion is that the article should be reverted so it remains. The administrator Daniel has already acknowledged that the article asserts notability to the extent that it cannot be speedy deleted. Although I do agree somewhat with Eusebeus, that the referencing of some of the information is not there, so maybe a sources tag needs to be applied? R:128.40.76.3 20:09, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
WP:BLP is non-negotiable. Any unsourced material about a living person can be removed. Will(talk) 20:28, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keeping in mind Sceptre's accurate and correct statement, I suggest everyone involved in this dispute that you post a brief summary at the article's talk page of your position, thoughts and suggestion, so we can analyze it there properly and act accordingly. I'm a little short of time to delve deeply into this now (I'm truly sorry), but this weekend I'll be around most of the time and, hopefully, we'll be able to solve it in a mutually acceptable way. Please, don't engage in a dispute at that talk page; a summary to review is all that's needed at this point. Best regards, Phaedriel - 20:37, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I will try to work through the issues here. As a longtime editor, I think I can probably resolve the dispute so I am hesitant to ask you to waste your time with this unimportant stuff (almost certainly involving COI issues). I'll take it to AfD - something I was hoping to avoid, but as it stands, given the failure to assert WP:MUSIC, probably the best option. Thanks Phaedriel! Eusebeus 22:29, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, I have reworked the article and hopefully brought it up to speed. From my interpretation of WP:MUSIC I think it passes and have listed a few points through a link on the talk page. If other editors involved here still question the notability, please let me know how I can improve the article, or take the article to AfD, however I think that if it goes to AfD it will result in a keep.

I haven't noticed you around much lately, dear Phaedriel. Where for art thou? And what is this about wiki-exhaustion and you being considered for deletion, eh? -JacќяМ ¿Qué? 00:23, 10 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
That deletion thing on her userpage is just a joke. Nothing taken serious. She is currently tried at the moment but will return to normal soon I hope :) KingLopezContribs 09:47, 10 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oh Phaedriel, where art thou? We miss you :( in all seriousness, take your time; we don't want an unhappy Sharon! Best wishes, and we'll all be hoping you have a relaxing WikiBreak.

Territorial disputes
Maybe this talk page could be on neutral soil, like Switzerland? umdrums 16:09, 10 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Check it out - this is another bug. It's not related to the other bug, but don't tell the spider - he's adopted.
Also, you are probably wondering what I am doing tonight. Well, I'm making pork chops. Now you are sitting there thinking, 'I wonder which, of the three major world religions, the_undertow practices...' Silly Phae!

Did someone say... card from Spebi? :)
Dear Phaedriel,
Sharon... :) I hope you like doves, and I hope that this card was a suprise ;) I'd write an email, but I don't think making a card in an email would turn out looking that good at all. And I'm running out of creative ideas for cards, so this may be the last card for a while! :(
How have you been lately? I hope everything's going okay for you, and that you're not as exhausted as your userpage notice. I've been thinking a lot about #@!, and what you said about me $#%^!@# %&* (#@)!`~#&!=.
I'll be writing you an email soon, k? :)
And now, I grant you with another special gift of mine; as you have been reading this card, something has happened. To find out what exactly happened, you'll have to wait until another message appears on this page. Let's just hope you have new messages before Tuesday, 14 August... ;)
Looking forward to your response, –sebi 05:57, 12 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Here's some ice cream for you! Ice cream somehow promotes WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better. Spread the WikiLove by giving something friendly to someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Happy editing!

Block on User:A.J.1.5.2.
Hello again. My colleague Alex is still blocked from editing after I was blocked last week (Pete Hurd believes we are the same person, and listed a whole lot of accounts that come from our shared IP). As he is a different editor to me (not a sockpuppet) and generally contributes in different areas of interest, can you please unblock his account? This will prevent him from creating another account, and hence probably attract more attention and accusations of sockpuppetry in the future.

thinking of you
Thinking of you...
Away, those cloudy looks, that labouring sigh,
The peevish offspring of a sickly hour!
Nor meanly thus complain of Fortune's power,
When the blind gamester throws a luckless die.
Yon setting sun flashes a mournful gleam
Behind those broken clouds, his stormy train:
To-morrow shall the many-coloured main
In brightness roll beneath his orient beam!
Hi Phaedriel, I just wanted to leave you a note to assure you that I'm fine, contrary to what certain vandal(s) seem to have said. I'm disappointed that some people choose to harass rather than help one another and the encyclopedia at large. Please keep my userpage protected for now, OK?
I've missed you and everybody else (OK, maybe with some understandable exceptions), but I'm still extremely busy and I don't know when I will next go online. You and many other people have been in my thoughts, and I'm sorry for any worries my much-needed absence has caused you. I hope this brief message lifts your spirits. I'll try to write more later. With much love, Kyoko 23:32, 13 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Remember User:R:128.40.76.3? Well, I'm tempted to not play so nice, so I'd like you (or some of the many people who visit this page) to take another look at his edits in the last some days. Consider the article Patrick DeMeyer which he has just created and which seems to have been deleted a number of times; consider that he may also be User:128.40.76.3 (and more?).
