Thank you for your message on my talk page. I'm not an admin, no (and I'm certainly not your admin), I'm just another user who saw your changes, reverted them, then placed the warnings above to try and warn you away from continuing with your unhelpful actions. If you want to make editing tests, try the sandbox where you can play around to your hearts content! Giles Bennett ( Talk, Contribs) 08:53, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
I'm sorry, but I don't understand the question you've left for me. I understand that you created your account a day ago, but I don't know why you would expect an admin to contact you, as no-one has a specific admin assigned to them. Just use the site - if you have any questions you can leave them for a specific user on their talk page, or post them on the WP:Help desk help desk. Giles Bennett ( Talk, Contribs) 09:02, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
Despite what I've said above, you've continued to act in a way which could be considered vandalism - the addition of the {{ administrator}} template to my user page, and your amendments to Christopher Lloyd are unacceptable. Please refrain from acting in this way, or you run the risk of being banned from wikipedia. Giles Bennett ( Talk, Contribs) 09:46, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

Hello. Would you please stop creating pages that serve no useful purpose, such as Template:Oasishongkong and Category:Oasis Hong Kong Airlines? You are merely cluttering up the site and creating more work for people to clean up after you. If you continue to do this sort of thing, you will probably be blocked from editing.
I'm guessing that you intend to use the template on your user page. You should simply insert the same code directly into the page.

Thanks for uploading
Image:Holmes.sherlockbaseball.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a
claim of fair use. However, it is currently
orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed.
You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see
our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 08:56, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
You have edited your user page to make it appear as though I have awarded you a barnstar. I haven't, and having seen many of your somewhat random, and frequently unhelpful, contributions to Wikipedia over the months there's no likelihood that I'm going to. I have removed the barnstar from your userpage -please consider this a warning for your behaviour. Giles Bennett ( Talk, Contribs) 18:10, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
If I am misreading this entirely, please forgive me. It would seem that you are having a hard time reading and/or understanding Wikipedia. Wikipedia can be a confusing place and perhaps you want some help learning about it. I think you should go to Wikipedia:Contributing FAQ and read it; it may help you a lot. If you need more help than perhaps you can be adopted by an experienced editor. In order to do that, simply copy/paste this: {{subst:dated adoptme}} onto your userpage. I hope this helps. :) - WarthogDemon 19:17, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on Helpme, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that
administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{
hangon}}
to the article and state your intention on the article's
talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. --==

I've been watching you, and i have a few questions. The main one I would like answered is simply:
Why do you want to become an administrator so quickly and so soon? DurinsBane87 07:14, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
But what is it that you can't do without being an admin? You have a nearly free range of editing available to you without being an admin, so I still don't understand it. What can an admin do that you can't do that is so important? DurinsBane87 03:53, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
I just don't understand the motivations here. It just doesn't make sense to me, so I was trying to make sense of it. DurinsBane87 21:22, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
I'm afraid that I'm not going to adopt you. I am also going to remove your name from the list of people offering adoption. You have not been editing for 4 months as you claim. In addition, your recent behaviour makes it inappropriate for you to be offering advice to anyone. Please stop offering to adopt other people until you are much more experienced. Thank you. Bencherlite Talk 07:32, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
I have also put speedy delete tags on User:Horribleguy and User talk:Horribleguy. Was there any particular reason to move your user/user talk pages to that name, and back again? Bencherlite Talk 07:52, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
Thanks Holmes.sherlock, but I decline the adoption on the basis of already starting the adoption process with another user.
Thank you anways! - Mitch Owen Talk © 12:45, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for your offer for adoption, but it seems quite a few people have suggested that you aren't prepared to adopt someone. Also I have found someone else. Springreturning 00:55, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
Hey, just a suggestion- How about rather than asking users to post a message on Archive one, you could copy and paste the content here and put it in there? It's probably easier that way, as the new messages bar doesn't come up when people post in an archive (which is why I'm typing this here), and doesn't cause much confusion. Cheers- CattleGirl talk 10:07, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
You recently placed a warning for disruptive editing on my user page, care to explain why? Snappy56 10:21, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
...is this supposed to be User:Holmes.sherlock/Sandbox/Sandbox/Sandbox/Sandbox/Sandbox/Sandbox/Sandbox/Sandbox/Sandbox/Sandbox? I'm guessing that it isn't a constructive contribution, and upon scrolling through your talk page and contributions, I see a long history of disruption flowing from your account, and very few positive contributions. However, I hope that we can change that, if you're willing.
The best thing I can suggest that you do is start editing articles. Find a subject you know a lot about - your place of work, a town you know about, or anything like that, and add to its article. If an article doesn't exist, and your subject meets our notability guidelines, then you can even start a new article. You could take a look at our tutorial for information about how we work here, and I would suggest that you read that and some of our other policies to help guide yourself in contributing.
I'm you're feeling adventurous, there's a small link on the left of this page (near the top) to a "Random article". Click it, and you'll be amazed what you'll find, and, more often than not, you'll find an article in dire need of some help, be it typo fixing or research.
I really hope that you can become a positive contributor, but must remind you that Wikipedia is a serious project, with serious aims - we don't mind users working on their user pages, but we do like to see more effort being put into articles. Thanks - if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask on my talk page or here. Mart inp23 18:56, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
I agree with the comments made above, a large number of odd behaviours have been brought to my attention:
Numerous other worries have been raised that I haven't the time to list here. Basically, I really suggest you stop requestng to be an admin, and stop trying to enforce policies you really don't understand. You really ought to edit helpfully, contribute to the content of this encyclopedia before trying even considering adminship. Four months of sporadicly helpful and unhelpful editing does not make you a "senior" editor as you have described yourself. Please try to learn how to walk before you start running, swimming and pole vaulting, try to follow User:Martinp23's advice above, or you might find yourself facing some blocks for disruption. Thanks SGGH speak! 19:12, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

Hello Holmes.sherlock. I just have a quick question about an unusual edit of yours. On July 9, you welcomed new user
Mctcool, and on September 1 you left them a {{
Smile}}. But today, you
blanked their user page with an edit summary that they are a "non-existing user". Was that simply because they have not edited in a while?
Normally, we do not blank a user's page simply because they have not been active for a couple months. Maybe they will come back at some point. I have reverted your blanking, but if you have any questions, please ask here (I will
"watchlist" this page for a short time). Thanks,

You have expressed interest in undergoing the
Admin coaching program. However, after reviewing your edit history, I feel you may need more experience editing (i.e., >2,500 edits & 4 months of activity) on
Wikipedia before you can know for certain your ready to begin the process of becoming an
administrator. Therefore, at this time, your application for Admin Coaching has been declined.
My suggestion would be to seek adoption from a more experienced user who can help you experience all of the various components of editing an encyclopedia. If you decide adoption is not for you, there is also the editor review process that may help you find areas to improve upon in our editing. If you would like to talk more about this, please feel free to leave me a my talk page. MBisanz talk 21:25, 27 February 2008 (UTC) |

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see
our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 08:56, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
You have edited your user page to make it appear as though I have awarded you a barnstar. I haven't, and having seen many of your somewhat random, and frequently unhelpful, contributions to Wikipedia over the months there's no likelihood that I'm going to. I have removed the barnstar from your userpage -please consider this a warning for your behaviour. Giles Bennett ( Talk, Contribs) 18:10, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
If I am misreading this entirely, please forgive me. It would seem that you are having a hard time reading and/or understanding Wikipedia. Wikipedia can be a confusing place and perhaps you want some help learning about it. I think you should go to Wikipedia:Contributing FAQ and read it; it may help you a lot. If you need more help than perhaps you can be adopted by an experienced editor. In order to do that, simply copy/paste this: {{subst:dated adoptme}} onto your userpage. I hope this helps. :) - WarthogDemon 19:17, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on Helpme, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that
administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{
hangon}}
to the article and state your intention on the article's
talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. --==

I've been watching you, and i have a few questions. The main one I would like answered is simply:
Why do you want to become an administrator so quickly and so soon? DurinsBane87 07:14, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
But what is it that you can't do without being an admin? You have a nearly free range of editing available to you without being an admin, so I still don't understand it. What can an admin do that you can't do that is so important? DurinsBane87 03:53, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
I just don't understand the motivations here. It just doesn't make sense to me, so I was trying to make sense of it. DurinsBane87 21:22, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
I'm afraid that I'm not going to adopt you. I am also going to remove your name from the list of people offering adoption. You have not been editing for 4 months as you claim. In addition, your recent behaviour makes it inappropriate for you to be offering advice to anyone. Please stop offering to adopt other people until you are much more experienced. Thank you. Bencherlite Talk 07:32, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
I have also put speedy delete tags on User:Horribleguy and User talk:Horribleguy. Was there any particular reason to move your user/user talk pages to that name, and back again? Bencherlite Talk 07:52, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
Thanks Holmes.sherlock, but I decline the adoption on the basis of already starting the adoption process with another user.
Thank you anways! - Mitch Owen Talk © 12:45, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for your offer for adoption, but it seems quite a few people have suggested that you aren't prepared to adopt someone. Also I have found someone else. Springreturning 00:55, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
Hey, just a suggestion- How about rather than asking users to post a message on Archive one, you could copy and paste the content here and put it in there? It's probably easier that way, as the new messages bar doesn't come up when people post in an archive (which is why I'm typing this here), and doesn't cause much confusion. Cheers- CattleGirl talk 10:07, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
You recently placed a warning for disruptive editing on my user page, care to explain why? Snappy56 10:21, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
...is this supposed to be User:Holmes.sherlock/Sandbox/Sandbox/Sandbox/Sandbox/Sandbox/Sandbox/Sandbox/Sandbox/Sandbox/Sandbox? I'm guessing that it isn't a constructive contribution, and upon scrolling through your talk page and contributions, I see a long history of disruption flowing from your account, and very few positive contributions. However, I hope that we can change that, if you're willing.
The best thing I can suggest that you do is start editing articles. Find a subject you know a lot about - your place of work, a town you know about, or anything like that, and add to its article. If an article doesn't exist, and your subject meets our notability guidelines, then you can even start a new article. You could take a look at our tutorial for information about how we work here, and I would suggest that you read that and some of our other policies to help guide yourself in contributing.
I'm you're feeling adventurous, there's a small link on the left of this page (near the top) to a "Random article". Click it, and you'll be amazed what you'll find, and, more often than not, you'll find an article in dire need of some help, be it typo fixing or research.
I really hope that you can become a positive contributor, but must remind you that Wikipedia is a serious project, with serious aims - we don't mind users working on their user pages, but we do like to see more effort being put into articles. Thanks - if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask on my talk page or here. Mart inp23 18:56, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
I agree with the comments made above, a large number of odd behaviours have been brought to my attention:
Numerous other worries have been raised that I haven't the time to list here. Basically, I really suggest you stop requestng to be an admin, and stop trying to enforce policies you really don't understand. You really ought to edit helpfully, contribute to the content of this encyclopedia before trying even considering adminship. Four months of sporadicly helpful and unhelpful editing does not make you a "senior" editor as you have described yourself. Please try to learn how to walk before you start running, swimming and pole vaulting, try to follow User:Martinp23's advice above, or you might find yourself facing some blocks for disruption. Thanks SGGH speak! 19:12, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
Hi, it's me, holmes.sherlock again! I want to request for a bot, what can I do, and what is a bot? See my userpage. Thanks and cheers, Holmes.sherlock 14:33, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

Hello, I am just testing if it works! ♠♥. Thanks, Holmes.sherlock 13:27, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
Hello Holmes.sherlock. I just have a quick question about an unusual edit of yours. On July 9, you welcomed new user
Mctcool, and on September 1 you left them a {{
Smile}}. But today, you
blanked their user page with an edit summary that they are a "non-existing user". Was that simply because they have not edited in a while?
Normally, we do not blank a user's page simply because they have not been active for a couple months. Maybe they will come back at some point. I have reverted your blanking, but if you have any questions, please ask here (I will
"watchlist" this page for a short time). Thanks,
Satori Son

Hello, how can I order for the wikipedia signpost? I am not on a wiki break, I am just testing, if you are kind enough, please help me delete the wikibreak template on my user page. Please reply me on my talk page, thanks, Holmes.sherlock 10:33, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
I have reverted your edit to circumference, as well as your move to Circumference (circle). The edits constituted vandalism, and the move was unnecessary. Please refrain from making edits such as those without first discussing them on the articles talk page first. Giles Bennett ( Talk, Contribs) 13:32, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
Please stop. If you continue to
vandalize Wikipedia, as you did to
Yuri Gagarin, you will be
blocked from editing.

Can I ask why, exactly, you felt the need to translate Wikipedia:Bot requests into Chineese and back again? Of course I assume there was a good reason, but could it not have been done in the sandbox?? Happy‑ melon 15:30, 18 December 2007 (UTC)
I have nominated Haruki Ikegami, an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Haruki Ikegami. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

You have expressed interest in undergoing the
Admin coaching program. However, after reviewing your edit history, I feel you may need more experience editing (i.e., >2,500 edits & 4 months of activity) on
Wikipedia before you can know for certain your ready to begin the process of becoming an
administrator. Therefore, at this time, your application for Admin Coaching has been declined.
My suggestion would be to seek adoption from a more experienced user who can help you experience all of the various components of editing an encyclopedia. If you decide adoption is not for you, there is also the editor review process that may help you find areas to improve upon in our editing. If you would like to talk more about this, please feel free to leave me a my talk page. MBisanz talk 21:25, 27 February 2008 (UTC) |
Hello, I am RC-0722 and I just wanted to know that if you wish, I will adopt you. Let me know what you think. RC-0722 247.5/ 1 13:25, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
