I was wondering if you intended to include [[WP:FT|Featured Topics]], which are now functional, and the more experimental for the time being [[WP:FSC|Featured Sounds]] in that beat? [[User:Circeus|Circeus]] 22:00, 12 February 2007 (UTC) |

Wiki Newspaper
Hi, I know you're the president of the Wikipedia Signpost and I am sorry to bother you but could you please give me a piece of advice, I am the Founder of a wiki and I decided on having a wiki newspaper. Could you please give me some tips. - | Jimwitz. Please respond here.
Hi. I just stumbled upon the old Wikipedia:Deletion logs and found out that you deleted the whole archive, stating that there were "concerns over libel in deletion summaries". You also stated that you'd restore the logs soon, but it's now quite a while ago since you said that, so are there still plans to undelete the logs? I'm also somewhat confused about the whole thing in general, since I can't really imagine that there were a lot of potentially libellous statements in the first place, we're talking about trusted admins here, after all. Therefore, removing all deletion summaries seems to be a bit too much, IMHO. Looking through the logs and removing the handful of potentially libellous statements seems like a more sensible approach to me. After all, the old deletion logs, including the deletion summaries/reasons for deletion, are quite useful to have. Also, just out of curiosity, where can the discussions with other admins you mentioned be found? --Conti|✉ 21:49, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
- Hmm, I see. The Google problem could be solved by moving the logs to Articles for deletion subpages (or others that are also included in our robots.txt). Going through all these logs and removing potentially libellous statements sounds like a huge task for sure, and I can understand that no one is keen on doing that (me included). Couldn't you just search for "content was:" type of deletion summaries and remove them, tho? I've looked through some of the older logs, and pretty much all deletion summaries that contained the original text that was deleted had either easily searchable words in it ("content:", "Full Text:", "says" or something similar) and/or started and ended with quotation marks. Would it be possible to just remove such summaries? I know that this would be more work than just removing all deletion summaries, but I think losing them all would be quite a pity. --Conti|✉ 16:25, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

Could you help with some research?
Hello Ral315,
I'm currently in the middle of a PhD at the University of Bath, UK. I'm examining the way that mediation differs between face-to-face, video-conferenced and text-based meetings. You can get a gist of the research from my (somewhat sparse) homepage here.
Would you be willing to spare some time to talk to me about your experiences mediating? It'd help me out no end!
If you'd like some more info, you can leave a message on my talkpage or contact me via the e-mail address on my homepage.
Many thanks
Matt

Thanks for spotting the forum business, I would never have seen that myself in a million years. I thought that whole business was over, but clearly someone holds a grudge. Oh well. Cheers, Moreschi Deletion! 09:54, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

Re: Signpost Spamlist
Hello, Ral315! Though I am currently taking a WikiBreak, I still like to keep up with WP news, and I would like to request that my name be kept on the spamlist. Thank you for everything! :) –- kungming·2 (Talk) 07:43, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

My RfA
Word of thanks for Ral315
Good morning (GMT time); I'd like to thank you for supporting, opposing, taking a neutral stance to, closing, suggesting I close or otherwise contributing to my recent RfA; unfortunately, I felt that although there were more support than oppose votes, the weight of the latter was too great for me to accept the promotion with so many not trusting me with the janitor's trolley - I therefore decided to end my nomination prematurely. The feedback I received was invaluable, and I am striving to start afresh with all of the advice my fellow Wikipedians offered. In order to meet the aim of adapting to your advice, I've drew up a list of aims (located here) which I intend to follow from this point onwards. at my talk page where it will be graciously and humbly accepted. Once again, thank you and I do hope to bump into you around the encyclopedia! Regards, | |||

- At least warn a guy, I've been disincluding it as fast as other tasks allowed. [1] this will ease the load, but suggest you focus your AWB flights on mainspace and then talks ASAP. Didn't I copy email you on the self-substing method CBDunkerson seems to have come up with? If I didn't apologies, but that would be far less disruptive! BTW- If you agreed to wait, common courtesy would indicate you should inform the other party that you've changed your mind. Now WP is going to be the only sister without W or w2 macros. Why not go pick on {{Tlx|Tl]]??? Doing away with That AT LEAST would unload the servers! // FrankB 21:17, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
