I agree with your comments for declining rollback for User:Hkansagra. However, I was looking at his allegations against User:Tedmund, and it does seem that this user is abusing rollback, e.g. [1]. I'm inclined to remove rollback from this user, but would like a second opinion first. (It does not seem to be edit warring, just reversion of good faith edits). Incidentally, is there any page for proposing/discussing cases of rollback abuse? — Tivedshambo ( t/ c) 15:03, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

As you may know, the StatusBot responsible for maintaining the status of the Highly Active Users was taken offline. We now have a replacement in the Qui status system. This semi-automatic system will allow you to easily update your status page found at Special:Mypage/Status which the HAU page code is now designed to read from. If you are already using Qui (or a compatible system) - great! - no action is needed (other than remembering to update your status as necessary). If not, consider installing Qui. You can also manually update this status by changing the page text to online, offline, or busy. While it is not mandatory, the nature of HAU is that people are often seeking a quick answer from someone who is online and keeping our statuses up-to-date will assist with this. Note if you were previously using your /Status page as something other than a one-word status indicator, your HAU entry may have been set to "status=n" to correct display issues. Please clear this parameter if you change things to be "HAU compatible". Further questions can be raised at WT:HAU. This message was delivered by xenobot 23:08, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
Hi Pedro...

Hi,
I'm still learning admin stuff, and I must confess that I am not too sure what happens about closing. I followed the instructions at WP:GRFA, but wasn't aware about the untransclusion (thanks for that) and what lists it gets added to. I guess I assumed a bot did all that.

Not sure why this discussion is taking place on Pedro's talk page but anyway. What are we here for? To make friends, or to build an encyclopedia?

Hey Pedro! I know you get this a lot, but I couldn't think of anybody else better suited for the task. I know you spent a lot of time helping me prepare for a potential future role as an administrator, and I'm continually grateful. During that time I asked you to review my work as I value your opinion eminently. I was wondering, would it be too much trouble to give me your absolute honest opinion regarding my work since my last RfA? Kind of an informal editor review if you will. I would appreciate any positive and negative critiques you could offer. Wisdom89 ( T / C) 09:43, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Hi there Pedro, just want to wish you a Happy 2nd year edit day anniversary and hope you can continue your great work for a long time to come. I know im a tad late but looking at your talk page it seems everyone has passed you by and i wont let that happen to a fantastic editor like yourself :) When you granted me rollback after i had removed my name from the list i had a feeling you were a dedicated editor here on the wiki and ever since then i have seen many, many userpages which mention your name as someone to go to if we ever need help.

Since more and more people are voting oppose on RFAs in which users are being "admin-coached", I'm not completely sure my coaching should continue.

I think the bigger issue behind Meldshal's question remains unanswered though. Pedro has made some strides towards decoupling "How to Pass an RfA" from "How to be a good administrator", but I'm still sceptical that's been fully decoupled.
