Hi Dlohcierekim, |

I think you've done everything you can. I agree its a terrible mess and needs to be closed soon to prevent further damage to JtKeifer and Wikipedia. I don't know what he could have been thinking, but this was all bound to come out. A bad situation all round. I don't have further advise. I suspect it will be close by one of our excellent 'bcrats soon. If it goes on too long I may snowball it myself, but would much rather it be done properly by a 'bcrat. As always, best, [[User:Gwernol|Gwernol]] 16:03, 11 August 2006 (UTC) |

Contacting me
If you wish to contact me, the quickest and easiest way is to use This Talk Page. If I am logged into Wikipedia, whicih is likely if I am awake, I will see the new messages flag and respond as quickly as I can.
Please use my email link only as a last resort if you are unable to edit due to block or ban. I check my email less frequently than my talk page and the delay may be considerable. My email is mailto:dlohcierekim@yahoo.com
Note well-- I believe Wikipedia communications should be as transparent as possible. I will post any email related to Wikipedia on my talk page. I will respond on the emailer's Talk Page. It is very unlikely that I will respond via email, as that would not be transparent.

Re: Talk page blanking
I've responded on my talk page (as I generally do). And I'm pretty sure it's typical for a candidate's "apologists" to debate those in opposition, and vice versa, entirely without the candidate's endorsement or consent. Debate is intended, after all. (I have no real ties or attachment to that particular RfA, but any support or oppose vote should expect to be "rebutted" if someone takes objection. I won't debate you on your vote, but I wouldn't hold it against a candidate if people spring to his or her defense.) --Emufarmers(T/C) 14:55, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
Ryulong RFA
Hi Dlohcierekim... techinically I'm not supposed to be here... I was blocked for reverting a FALSE incest quote complete with bogus source that Ryulong fought very hard to uphold on the Jeremy Clarkson article. (ITS ALL IN THE HISTORY) It's a long story... but regardless... I was OPPOSITION vote 16 and my vote was deleted by #3 supporter within 90 seconds!!, MrLefty and my suspension was increased to TWO weeks instead of one, I believe, so that I'd miss the end vote. Ryulong, along with his ASDMIN bully friends have pretty much destroyed my enjoyment of the site. When I first discovered the FALSE quote, I deleted it citing that "IF YOURE GONNA SAY THAT JEREMY SAID THAT ALL OF USA PRACTICES INCEST, THEN YOU'LL NEED TO BACK IT UP" as it seems too controversial. He reverted me 3 or 4 times claiming that "jeremy could have easily said that"...(Im trying to make this short as possible)... he deleted it... I tried to open a topic on the JC talk page and he deleted my topic 6 times then had me blocked by his admin buddies for VANDALISM I think? Anyway... I told THIS story on the admin page where instead of being smug, rude and cocky, he apologised to me and removed the quote saying that it was a mistake. This was certainly not a mistake... he tried fervently to keep tha page innaccurate and I have been blocked for suspending him and have also had a valid vote thwarted.
I just thought that you should know about it because your OPPOSE reasons mentioned his COHORTS/COMRADES that make up their gang.
Although the page now is just how I think it should be(factual), I am now very concerned that this chap will be ADMIN. He and his admin bully buddies can make life miserable for a LOT of wikifolk. It's just not cool.
You know how the kid acts nice and sweet when the teacher is watching and then twists your nipple when the teacher is not looking... thats what this guy does.
When the edit war was going on, his gang suspended me and then he told me "I AM ACTUALLY LAUGHING OUT LOUD".
Is this a fake vote from MrLefty?---> [1]
Heres the one where they deleted my vote---> [2]
I'm sure you know that I have waged a small war against this editor, Ryulong using a number of IPs and ISPs, but that does not invalidate anything I have said here.
Please look into my claims... I haven't lied and I think that you will see that my claims are true. If you have any sway AT ALL... don't let this 18yr old testosterone fueled, egomaniac become ADMIN. He will abuse the tools and will only bring misery.
Is that normal to delete someone's topic from a discussion seven times? Seems unfair somehow. He has no powers yet, but abuses his knowledge over others.
Mate, I'm very sorry for the essay.
Thanks for reading.

What right have you to DELETE the new article I just spent 1 1/2 hours on, without evenh discusssing with me???? Syrenab 15:39, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

Crime Expo SA
Thanks for your message, and for your post to the article's deletion page. I only became aware of it when it was being linked to in numerous inappropriate places. If the lack of consensus leads to it being kept, as looks likely, we'll need to keep a close watch on which articles are linked to it. I agree with your view that it is essentially a non-notable blog. I would add that it also seems to be a political soapbox. Ah well. --Guinnog 23:07, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
AgentSoo RfA
Hi Dlohcierekim, I just wanted to clarify my reasoning for the oppose stance on AgentSoo's RfA. I came across something I'd said to Jono posted by Jono on Soos talk page. I simply asked him about it as I wondered if Jono was giving him some trouble. Its was a move made out of genuine concern for Soo as I wondered if he was being talk page harassed and generally just wondered what was going on. Perhaps I was tired or not paying attention at the time but I didn't see it to be an 'In Joke', largely because it was made at my expense.
He replied basically telling me 'no he couldn't/didn't want to explain'. So I took the time to research it and after a fair bit of reading around realised it was a somewhat dubious 'in-joke' made at my expense. But I've seen worse out there, I agree - not in itself a reason for an oppose stance. However, what I felt did constitute the oppose was the genreally unhelpful attitude and the "its none of your buissness why should I tell you" attitude he displayed. I didn't feel that was very becoming of an administrator. I took some fairly considerable time to read about and it meant that was time I wasn't editing or making diagrams for wikipedia.
My oppose is not a strong one but I feel this specific user would benefit from some more time editing and perhaps some 'more humility on user talk pages' as FrancisTyers put it. Some of the best admins i've come across are the ones who had to fight skin and bone over their RfA because of some dubious past incidents and I think this coupled with the [Skull symbolism] issues puts soo in this category. I do honestly believe in a few months he could make a great admin, but just not right now. I hope this better explains my position, thanks. --WikipedianProlific(Talk) 01:03, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
- Sorry I just wanted to contact you and clairfy my position as my initial explanation of my oppose was weak and I came across User talk:Agentsoo#Joke--RfA and felt I really ought to explain myself better as it wasn't the 'twat' comments themself that was the reasoning for my oppose, but rather the underlying attitude. Thanks. --WikipedianProlific(Talk) 01:14, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

possible copy right problem
Image:Imgp0479 - lions club 800x600.jpg This is a picture someone took of a Lions_Clubs_International logo. As a Lion, I know LCIF enforces the copyright on its logo. It charges money for pins and other items containing the logo. I would recommend checking with LCIF about this. :) Dlohcierekim 21:40, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
Another one Image:HK Lion International at the Peak of HK island.jpg Cheers. :) Dlohcierekim 22:05, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
- I may be wrong but, as of my understanding, pictures of logos are almost the same of logos themselves. The first image may be marked as {{logo}} and used when in accordance with WP:FAIR. The second one is in Commons, where unfree images are not accepted. Maybe you should raise the question there. I believe there's a possibility the image is discarded. --Abu Badali 01:31, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

On the band Kcor article I wrote. I will add how the band members meet.
I guess their clam to notability would be the fact that they had a recording contract with the same label ("The Legendary" Sun Studio "Birthplace of Rock 'n' Roll") as Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, Roy Orbison and Johnny Cash had. If you think I need more notability let me know, I will work on it.
Thanks for helping me with this.

My rfa
See my original nomination for the questions and answers. The Wookieepedian 21:21, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
Your Vote Reasoning (RfA Thadman 2)
"Strong oppose based on lack of needed experience editing and talking with other editors. The bit in nom about being "forced to withdraw" on prior RfA shows a lack of understanding of how Wikipedia works. Constructive critique-- Needs many more AfD and RCPatrol related edits to handle most pressing of admin tasks. Needs many more article edits to establish that he understands Wikipedia policies. Needs many more user and article talk edits to show he has the critical thinking skill to be an admin. Claims expertise on copyright, but I find no related edits in last 500. Does not need admin tools to Wikify. I did find ~280 AMA related entries in edit summaries. Wikipedia is about building an Encyclopedia. Please come back when you have broader experience. Cheers :)"
- Just my opinion, but another person's written nomination generally shouldn't count against the nominee's RfA. I also wish to ask why admins must have wide experience in your view. Does an exceptional RC specialist have to been active in AfD in order for adminship in your book? --Wslack (talk) 00:42, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for the quick reply. I did not consider that nominees could request corrections on their nomination, that's my bad, and I don't dispute that the language isn't good. My question on broadness isn't about consensus: That's easily seen in those two links. My question is about your personal wish for it, and your reasoning as per my question above. I also think that the word "Need" instead of "you might want" in constructive Critisism is rather oxymoronic, but that's just my thing.

If this one shows up again, you might want to hold off on the speedy. He actually googles pretty well, though the info in the article was so skimpy the speedy was justifiable. Fan-1967 03:01, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
- Hopefully he'll try again. My first instinct was to db it, too. Something about the article told me it was either total nonsense or might be for real. Happens. Fan-1967 03:09, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the chance to do this. It is going to be a biography page. And I will try to cite as many refs as possible. This isn't to inflate my popularity. I just wanted a site where people could get more info on me as an artist. I will try to get the guidelines down asap.
