You are now an admin, after an impressive showing in your nomination. I would recommend being conservative in your use of the tools, especially so at first. Also re-read the relevant policy before acting, particularly if you're not sure. Post anything likely to be controversial on the administrators noticeboard before doing it if possible. Other than that, congratulations again, dive in and have fun using your shiny new tools to help this place out. - Taxman Talk 00:14, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
Welcome to Administration! Here's your mop and bucket! |
Thanks. (^_^) ··· 日本穣 ? · Talk to Nihonjo e 03:55, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
Please note, I am not the first to revert. His initial reversion of somebody else's edits was the catalyst for this. If the rule is 3 reversions in one day, his initial reversion should count and I should not ever have to meet the three reversion rule without him first reaching it. Yes, it's rediculous, neither of us is compromising, both of us think we are right and therefore neither of our edits should stick nor should the edits of the shill editors he keeps recruiting from his video game editors. This is how I read it, am I wrong?-- Asams10 23:53, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
I stepped back about three days ago and I was just told not to edit it anymore. The best I can do is shake my head and grumble anymore.-- Asams10 06:46, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
Just before you put up a "not formal tone" on the Onsen article, I went thru and revised the article, because I also thought it was not formal enough. I took out a number of things and streamlined others to give it a more formal tone. Did you review these recent (today) changes before adding the window? Thanks. Malnova 12:00, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
Why did you take out the list of shows from this article? It was from the artist's website. They are the only claim to notability, apart from editing one book. If there is nothing else to add for this person, it will go to AfD because he's not notable, which is a shame because the paintings have some quality. If you can establish his notability, please do so. It also needs some verifiable references. Tyrenius 00:43, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
Hey Nihonjoe, thanks for using my milestone tool! I'm glad someone found it useful. However, as you might already have realized from the message on the tool page, the toolserver is currently suffering from corruption of data from the English Wikipedia, and some milestones returned might be wrong. (They certainly are for me) I hear that the toolserver admins are working to correct this problem, but you might like to wait until it's fixed. Cheers, Tangot a ngo 05:36, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
I would just like to point out that a large portion of the japanophile community is bisexual. It may not be the case for you or some people you know, but i find it discriminatory that you ignore the existance of this substantial majority, and refuse to give it mention, and my stated figure of there being 3 bisexuals in 5 japanophhiles is correct. my source was Neo magazine in the march 2006 issue. Please do not change facts just because they do not apply to you. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 82.69.109.3 ( talk • contribs) .
Like I said, it's your article, and i'm not going to change it. I'm sorry if my last post came across at all hostile, as this is the feedback i have been getting. In any case it was not meant to be that way. I was just giving a suggestion, for a figure I myself have experienced and recently found backed up which I found very interesting. I agree that my comment about it being discrimination was a bit extreme and I take that back. I don't know if it may be a culture difference, or region based difference as i am from the Oxfordshire in the UK. Neo is a UK based magazine about japanese pop-culture, often giving reviews on DVDs, Japanese Music and new Japanese Technology. Also if you have found nothing else on the internet it is possible that the study was faulse. I thought it would be possible because of mine and my friends' situations. Thank you for taking care to looking into and genuinly making sure my claim was not real, as a dismissal of information without looking it up would be very unfair. I will see if I can find any more support and let you know.
(p.s its hard not to be paranoid as a massive number of heterosexuals (espeacially geeks, which i consider myself one of) and homosexuals, look down on bisexuals for being undecided, promiscuous, etc.) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 82.69.109.3 ( talk • contribs) .
The featured list candidates seem to have an issue with the kanji characters. I believe this may be a codec issue. Since I have japanese fonts installed and observe no problems and that I have no understanding of kanji I though you might want to assist.
BTW congradulations in becomeing an admin, I would give my support but it appears you dont really need it ^_^;

How can you be ejected from an organization that has no leadership? That's not really an organization, but rather a grouping of anti-vandal individuals? No one can "eject" you from CVU if you still want to associate yourself with them. The only person who can eject you is yourself. ··· 日本穣 ? · Talk to Nihon jo e 22:24, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
Hi, Nihonjoe
Can I ask you to do this for me, since I know you're good at this?....
Somebody started a new survey in Talk:Liancourt Rocks and Talk:Senkaku Islands to change the article name. However, there are old survey results in the same talk page, and could be confusing. Can you please archive the old survey results so that people won't be confused? Thanks.-- Endroit 06:32, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
