:: No. Don't add speedy tags at all if you are incapable of making a simple decision. The nn-bio tag is for vanity pages. Are you saying you think a page written by an admin on a dead knight of the realm is a vanity page? Even if you are suspicious there is still Google or [[special:whatlinkshere]] to confirm your suspicions. But you said gibberish -- are you then incapable of parsing simple English sentences? — [[user:Duncharris|Dunc]]|[[User talk:duncharris|☺]] 21:25, 21 November 2005 (UTC) |

New HRwiki Page
Making this page has come up against a few (hopefully minor) roadblocks, your help would be very appreciated! --Stux 18:14, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
- Thanks a bunch, Stux. They're trying to delete a page that doesn't even exist yet. - Kookykman (talk • contribs)
RfA
Hi! Thanks for voting in my RfA, but what's a "sandpaper" edit summary? Thanks. Babajobu 20:45, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
- Oh. Shoulda clarified. Sandpaper would be rough. By the way, I'm very respectful of your contributions to this community, (heck, you got nominated to RfA) so don't be offended by my Oppose vote. Thanks. - Kookykman (talk • contribs)
- No problem, thanks for the kind words...but rough as in tough or dismissive to people I'm editing with, or rough as in unclear? Thanks, sorry to pester, but just trying to take stock of all comments in RfA. Babajobu 20:50, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
- Some of your older summaries were rough as in harsh. Come to think of it, I might move my vote to neutral. - Kookykman (talk • contribs)
- Got it, okay, thanks. Appreciate the thoughts on changing vote...to be honest, at this point it's exceedingly unlikely I'll get the adminship, anyway. Thanks again, take care. Babajobu 21:00, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
- Actually, since you mentioned it, if you did want to change your vote to neutral or even simple oppose, you certainly wouldn't hear any complaints from me! :-) Regardless, thanks for the feedback and talk, and good luck. Babajobu 22:12, 31 October 2005 (UTC)

Page move
Hi Kookykman, I've moved your draft on the Homestar Runner Wiki to the article space. Can you please check if everything has been done correctly? Eugene van der Pijll 23:17, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
- Thanks. Other than the fact that some people are already trying to delete it, everything went smoothly. - Kookykman (talk • contribs)
Please do keep me posted ...
regarding your concerns about Ed Poor. BrandonYusufToropov 23:28, 31 October 2005 (UTC)
- After reading what was posted, and looking a bit into it. I agreed with de-sysopping him. There's not much more than that, as I never had a personal disagreement with him. Thanks for asking, however. - Kookykman (talk • contribs)
- OK, thanks for the reply. BrandonYusufToropov 11:03, 1 November 2005 (UTC)

Thanks from Pamri
Hi, Thanks a ton for your constructive comments and for supporting at my RFA. I am now a wikipedia administrator. I hope I can keep your trust. Thanks again. --Pamri • Talk • 16:29, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
RfA thanks
Nope
But it does illustrate the point that if you assert something you need to source it! - Ta bu shi da yu 00:53, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
they use illegal and abusive measure
These are the arguments posted on the page of "Moldovan language".
For these facts many users have been blocked and more forced to accept an unilateral point of view of the Administrator Mikkalai and 16 years old Kid Node ue. He does not bring arguments as we do, instead he uses his power to block us many times (for one week or 24 h). Like for yourself, he warned you and mock on you saying that you don't have the right to say something.
I agree with you when you say to redirect to "Romanian language". Anyway "Romanian" was once recognized in the constitution as official language of the Moldova between 1991-1994 and many attempts to remake this were done.
"Moldovan language" is in fact indentical with Romanian language, renamed as a "language" for political reasons by the government. Although similar theories have been fielded for other languages, this proposal is now believed to have been made to serve political purposes only, and nobody has provided any evidence so-far towards the idea that Moldovan and Romanian are not from common linguistic stock.
The term "Moldovan" is also a soviet invention (see Dept. of State & CIA). A separate language based on these was declared and promoted for political reasons, in order to further advance a Moldovan identity separate from that of Romania.
The soviet Russians called people of Moldavia Republic: "Moldovan" because they wanted to create a new nation different from Moldavians/Romanians.
There is also in Romania a region called Moldova.
Russians manipulated people of Republic of Moldova and washed their brains to create a new person, the soviet "Moldovan". The real name in English is Moldavian, in Romanian is Moldovean and in Russian is Molidavanin. So "Moldovan" belongs to no language!
Lately were discovered some facts that prove that the theory of the both languages romanian and "moldovan" - was prefab since the 1812-1918. Some important aspects of the problematics: functioning of the romanian language in the sphere of the laic education system from Bessarabia of the year 1812-1918, the attempts to codyfing the romanian language in conditions of a linguistic situations, causes that determined to degradation of the language compared with spoken romanian on the right side of the river Prut, taking out the name "romanian" and introducing the term "limba moldoveneasca", the intention of the tsarist government "to create a dialect neared to the slavic language".
In the first years of russian occupation (after 1812), because 95% of the population being romanians which they knew only their mother tongue, romanian was admitted as an official language in the institutions of Bessarabia, used along with russian. Gradually the russian language win importance. According to the dates offered by the Dept. for ruling the Bessarabia from 1828, the papers from bureau were held only in russian, and around 1835 it is established a term of 7 years time in which the state institutions will still accept acts in romanian language. As concerning the education, romanian was admitted as language of teaching only until 1842, after that being taught as a separate object. Thus, at the theological Seminar of Chişinău, romanian language is found on the list of compulsory subjects, with 10 hours weekly, until 1863, when the department of romanian is closed for good. At the highschool no. 1 from Chişinău the pupils had the right to choose between romanian and german or between romanian and greek until 9th of Feb. 1866, when the state counselor of the russian government interdicts teaching of the romanian language because the pupils "know this language in the practical mode, and its teaching follows other goals". Around 1871, the tsar published an ucaz "On the suspension of teaching the romanian language in the schools from Besserabia", because "In russian Empire are not taught local speeches".
Two examples of the identity were given: (one is from the constitution of both countries – see the identity)
Comparison Romanian/Moldavian
The example below demonstrates that a formal text in Romanian and Moldovan may be completely identical, the only difference being the spelling of the î vowel in the word vântul. The colloquial languages show more difference, which varies over the area.
Second example is taken from the Constitution of Moldova and Romania. The identity is more than obvious.

As you can obvious see from these examples they are identical. We speak here about one language. But they Mikkalai and Node ue don't accept such examples and they constantly delete them without any argument. They delete them because the examples demonstrates all …
- Thank you very much for your comments. Although I am not at all approving of the actions of these administrators, I'm trying to avoid editing that article until I am sure I won't be banned for it. I hope you can prove your point to these administratitors. - Kookykman|(t)(c)

Thanks for looking up relevant policies for each mediation. This helps mediators in the first step to getting people to reconcile :-)

Welcome to Esperanza!
Welcome, Kookykman, to Esperanza, the Wikipedia member association! As you might know, all the Esperanzians share one important goal: the success of this encyclopedia. Within that, we then attempt to strengthen the community bonds, and be the "approachable" side of the project. All of our ideals are held in the Charter, the governing document of the association.
Now that you are a member, you might be interested in some of our programs. A quite important program is the StressUnit, which seeks to support editors who have encountered any stress from their Wikipedia events, and are seeking to leave the project. So far, Esperanza can be credited with the support and retention of several users. A spam list is maintained by Redwolf24 to keep members up to date; you might want to consider adding your name to the list. Also, we have a calendar of special events, member birthdays, and other holidays that you can add to and follow.
In addition to these projects, several more missions of Esperanza are in development, and are currently being created at Esperanza/Possibles.
I encourage you to take an active voice in the running of Esperanza. We have a small government system, headed by our Administrator general, Essjay, and guided by the Advisory Committee comprised of myself, Flcelloguy, Ryan Norton, and Acetic Acid. The next set of elections will be at the end of the year, and I would be glad to see you vote, or even consider running for a position.
If you have any other questions, concerns, comments, or general ideas, Esperanzian or otherwise, know that you can always contact me via email or talk page. Alternatively, you could communicate with fellow users via our IRC channel, #wikipedia-esperanza (which is also good for a fun chat or two :). I thank you for joining Esperanza, and look forward to working with you in making Wikipedia a better place to be!Bratschetalk | Esperanza 15:03, 19 November 2005 (UTC)
Vandalism
Please do not add speedy delete tags to pages that do not qualify as such. It is considered vandalism. — Dunc|☺ 14:42, 20 November 2005 (UTC)

Featured articles in other language
Hi, while Template:FAOL was on tfd, you suggested that this template should be at babel-style to be less space-consuming. I've started a conversation with User:Silence and we agreed that we create 3 levels
- Non-featured article that nonetheless has lots of content that would benefit our article
- Featured article with at least a little content that would benefit our article
- Featured article that has lots of content that would benefit our article
I would like to see your opinon about that, so we could imlement the new design. I've created a test page here. Another thing, do you think that we should write a template for each language in this language (like Babel templates), or we should keep it all in English? Thank you. CG 18:51, 20 November 2005 (UTC)
