Thought you might want to improve this article. There's so much material, and this seems to be right up your alley :) Minor 4th 19:27, 24 May 2018 (UTC)
I don't see why you have to be so unpleasant. You surely must be aware that the major problem with RfA is the behaviour of the participants. I don't do blocks for incivility, I also rarely leave warning templates, but if you contribute in a less collegial manner again, I will raise the matter at ANI and let others decide. I will also begin an RfC for the community to decide what are acceptable criteria for adminship. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง ( talk) 21:31, 4 August 2019 (UTC)
Just curious how you go about determining the number of FA or GA that a particular user has created and/or brought up to that level. I know you get hammered for your opinion all the time, and I'm not one to get into those sort of philosophical debates, so this isn't anything to do with any of that. I'm just wondering if there is some sort of automated tool that I don't know about that combs through an account's edits and compares against a list of FA and GA, or if you have to manually look at the editor's most-edited pages and check if they are FA or GA, or if you had a different technique. Thanks. Useight's Public Sock ( talk) 18:46, 8 August 2019 (UTC)

Awarded for defending the integrity of the pseudo-democratic process known as " request for adminship". I hope that next time, others will join you in defending your own or others' conscientious opposes. For those who do not understand how we must be as a community and a society, I leave a poem.

Agree, and said so. Different topic: I also agree with your Bier for Ritchie, but did you see what came before the (no suitable printable word available) block? Secret arbitration. We seem to reach a "culture" where complaints behind the scene rule.

Even though I think your RFA criteria may be slightly too strict, I support your choice to use them.

Hi GregJackP. Thanks for nominating yourself, and congratulations on indeed meeting the criteria. Having read the incredible articles in your nomination I'm thinking the only thing that stands out in need of improvement is the lead at Merrion v. Jicarilla Apache Tribe, which is only a single sentence. I think the article could be improved by fleshing that out a fair bit. I briefly considered asking you to do that before giving the award though figured it would be a shame to delay conferring it for something that I'm sure won't take you long (not to mention you would still have been eligible for the award with only two piece of content in each category), though I'd appreciate it you could take a look at expanding that at your earliest convenience. Have a great day! Damien Linnane ( talk) 05:07, 25 August 2021 (UTC)

This is to let you know that the United States v. Washington article has been scheduled to be rerun as today's featured article for October 12, 2021. Please check the article needs no amendments. If you're interested in further editing the main page text, you're welcome to do so at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/October 12, 2021, but note that a coordinator will trim the lead to around 1000 characters anyway, so you aren't obliged to do so.
AS with any rerun, it's possible that it may be replaced if suitable article that hasn't run before is requested
We suggest that you watchlist Wikipedia:Main Page/Errors from the day before this appears on Main Page. Thanks! Jimfbleak - talk to me? 10:07, 10 September 2021 (UTC)
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited RallyPoint, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page John Harvey. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
