An editor appears to be abusively using the IP address 124.181.118.5 and the account User:Millere08 to push through inappropriate changes on Wind power in Australia and some other Australian energy-related articles. Hope you can help... Johnfos ( talk) 08:33, 21 December 2008 (UTC) reply
Daniel: I suspect you have a grasp of broader Wiki-procedure of the kind that I lack. I still have a little flesh to put on AdminWatch, including election procedure, but the basics are there already. I'm encouraged that many admins accept—even support—the general concept.
I now realise that my original plan to have it operate (trial) from my userspace with coordinators of my choosing, hoping to move it to public space later, is not the way to go. I believe that by early January, with a few more tweaks and more feedback on the talk page, a more public move should be made. Have you suggestions of the best way to do this? One option might be to:

Daniel/Archive,
I wish you and your family all the best this Christmas and that you also have a Happy and safe new year.
Thankyou for all your contributions to Wikipedia this year and I look forward to seeing many more from you in the future.
Your work around Wikipedia has not gone un-noticed, this notice is testimony to that
Please feel free to drop by my talkpage any time to say Hi, as I will probably say Hi back :)
All the Best.

Dear Daniel.
You invited me, in your capacity as clerk, to participate in the present ArbCom case. I have been submitting evidence to the PHG case, which has required some work. However, already I am finding the Fringe science case acrimonious. I certainly didn't expect the kind of response from Sceptre that I got when I explained that Scientology, Adolf Hitler and Saddam Hussein were off-topic in a discussion on solving the problems of fringe science on WP. You have even now asked Sceptre to provide information about me as "evidence". I read this as meaning in the "evidence" section. How is this related to this fringe science case, where I am just an uninvolved editor? I hope I'm mistaken.
Can I in fact completely withdraw from this case?

Thank you for removing the comments left on my talkpage. If you have no objections, I would like to restore them so that other users who are concerned can see them . I propose to remove them in a couple of days, if that isn't a problem. Thank you for looking out. Die4Dixie ( talk) 08:47, 30 December 2008 (UTC) reply
Gp75motorspots is requesting unblock. See User talk:Gp75motorsports and Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#Gp75motorsports_is_requesting_unblock to comment on it (which would be much appreciated based on your history with him). Thanks, either way ( talk) 13:50, 30 December 2008 (UTC) reply
Why did you just send me a strange message after deleting a contribution on the main page of the Fringe Science ArbCom case by Martinphi? Mathsci ( talk) 00:40, 1 January 2009 (UTC) reply
I thought that once I added myself as a party I am entitled to a statement on that page, which does not cut into my evidence word count. Can't I have that? —— Martinphi Ψ~ Φ—— 00:48, 1 January 2009 (UTC) reply
I don't think that's needed; nb: the second div, line 2, is closed on the same line. ;) Cheers, Jack Merridew 14:13, 1 January 2009 (UTC) reply
Dear Daniel,
Wishing you a happy new year, and very best wishes for 2009. Whether we were friends or not in the past year, I hope 2009 will be better for us both.
Kind regards,

Hi - as co-clerk of Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Fringe science I was wondering if you could take a look at a new account that has popped up solely to edit pages of the case. He (or she) is clearly not a new editor, judging from their userpage. Many thanks, Skinwalker ( talk) 00:18, 15 January 2009 (UTC) reply

Hi Daniel. I see that in May 2008, you fully-protected this article per OTRS for one year but you added a semi-protected tag, so I was wondering if you meant semi-protection ? Cenarium (Talk) 14:29, 18 January 2009 (UTC) reply

Hello, On behalf of the concerned parties in the mediation case of The Man Who Would Be Queen. I know that none of you have to accept our case. I felt that asking all of you would be the best first approach. If you have any interest in mediating for us, or not, please indicate this on the talk page of the mediation case. If you are outright interested, want to mediate this case, and need no other convincing then please indicate that as well and we can get the ball rolling. If not we will not bother you anymore. Thankyou. -- Hfarmer ( talk) 08:15, 22 January 2009 (UTC) reply
There is something wrong with the arblisting at this case's PD talk page. It has 14 with 1 inactive, but there are 16 arbs. Can you figure out who it is and their status, then update the talk PD listing and the arb count on main PD accordingly? Thanks! — Rlevse • Talk • 02:57, 23 January 2009 (UTC) reply
