User talk:CBDunkerson/RFAs

Thank you!

Thanks for voting on my RfA! The final result was (36/1/2), so I'm now an administrator! For lack of anything creative to say (writing 36 of these things is hard!) I'd like to express awe at the telephone that you have as your talk icon. That's clever! Mo0[talk] 06:36, 17 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Fear my power

Thanks to the support of you and 63 others, I am now an administrator of the English language Wikipedia. — FREAK OF NUR_xTURE (TALK) 06:38, Dec. 17, 2005

malo's RfA

Thank you!

CBDunkerson, thanks for your support on my RFA. I was rather suprised at the overwhelming support I received. Thank you for your confidence in me. I hope that I'll live up to your expectations in the future as well. -- malo (tlk) (cntrbtns) 05:09, 21 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Locke Cole RFA

I just wanted to say thanks for your neutral vote (despite your earlier statement that you'd oppose). It means a lot to me that you think I've improved enough to no longer warrant an oppose. —Locke Cole • t • c 13:38, 30 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Another thank you for your comment on my talk page (now archived). =) Sorry for the belated response. —Locke Cole • t • c 22:03, 30 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

Many thanks for your support on my request for adminiship, I'm sure you'll be glad to know the final result was 92/1/0. I am now an administrator and (as always) if I do anything you have issue with, please talk about it with me. --Alf ^melmac 10:33, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

Pgk's RFA

Thanks for your support on my request for adminship.

The final outcome was (80/3/0), so I am now an administrator. I was flattered by the level of support and the comments, so I'm under real pressure not to disappoint, thus if you have any queries, suggestions or problems with any of my actions as an admin then please leave me a note --pgk^(talk) 10:41, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm thinking about going for it, and need your advice

I'm thinking about requesting adminship, and have written a draft of my request. I would appreciate it if you would proofread it for me, and let me know what you think. --Go for it! 23:31, 18 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

RfA Thanks!

Okay, this is perhaps a bit overdue, but thank-you for your support in my recent RfA! I passed with a final ~~vote count~~ consensus of (82/1/0), which was a lot of support that I really appreciate. I'll try to live up to the expectations; and on that note, if there's ever something I do wrong (or don't do right), please spit in my general direction. Cheers! --P e ruvianLlama^(spit) 05:31, 4 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

This user thinks it is ironic that thanks for supporting Cyde's successful RFA came in the form of a userbox.

Here's a userbox for you. --Cyde Weys 04:38, 9 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My RFA

I know this doesn't look good for my RFA but, could you look into a vote at my RFA (opposition #2) as I believe it is a vote by an absive sockpuppet of User:Mcfly85. Moe ε 03:37, 26 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Of course you are correct

My vote is equally capricious, but no more so. I'm not a fan of making a WP:POINT, but in this case I feel that I need to, and that it is reasonable to do so. —Doug Bell ^{talk•contrib} 04:44, 26 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

RfA

The RfA is now active at Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/CBDunkerson. Best of luck! Ëvilphoenix ^Burn! 01:24, 27 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You should've told me you were running but anyway...Yes, I wanted to say best of luck—I added my support for you! :) —Mirlen 02:52, 27 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My RfA

	My RfA
	Thank you for supporting/opposing/commenting on my request of adminship, sadly the result was 54/20/7 an thus only 73% support votes, resulting in that the nomination failed. As many of you commenting that I have to few main-space edits, I'll try to better my self on that part. If you have any ideas on what kind of articles I could edit, pleas send me a line. :)	_→AzaToth 09:32, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

My (HereToHelp’s) RfA

Thank you for supporting my RfA. I’m proud to inform you that it passed with 75 support to 1 oppose to 2 neutral. I promise to make some great edits in the future (with edit summaries!) and use these powers to do all that I can to help. After all, that’s what I’m here for! (You didn’t think I could send a thank you note without a bad joke, could I?) --Here T oHelp 12:50, 1 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You're a sysop!

Hi, CBDunkerson/RFAs, Congratulations on Becoming a Sysop

Hey there. I'm pleased to let you know that, consensus being reached, you are now an administrator! You've volunteered to do housekeeping duties that normal users sadly cannot participate in. Sysops can't do a lot of stuff: They can't delete pages just like that (except patent nonsense like "aojt9085yu8;3ou"), and they can't protect pages in an edit war they are involved in. But they can delete random junk, ban anonymous vandals, delete pages listed on Votes for deletion (provided there's a consensus) for more than one week, protect pages when asked to, and keep the few protected pages that exist on Wikipedia up to date.

Almost anything you can do can be undone, but please take a look at The Administrators' how-to guide and the Administrators' reading list before you get started (although you should have read that during your candidacy ;). Take a look before experimenting with your powers. Also, please add Administrators' noticeboard to your watchlist, as there are always discussions/requests for admins there. If you have any questions drop me a message at My talk page. Have fun! =Nichalp «Talk»=

. Please also add your name to WP:LA. Regards, =Nichalp «Talk»= 04:20, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Congratulations! Eleventy-one support votes is a really nice number :-) Kusma (討論) 04:37, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, eleventy-one is very fitting for a Tolkienite like me. Bilbo Baggins's famed 'long expected party' was on the occaision of his eleventy-first birthday. :] --CBDunkerson 15:14, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

We found you in the nick of time - eleventy-naught has no ring to it at all! hydnjo talk 01:27, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wow I didn't even think of that at all. I knew there was a reason I was vote #111. Fun. Ëvilphoenix ^Burn! 05:41, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I thought of it, but didn't want to sound geeky. :P —Locke Cole • t • c 05:44, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Congrats from me as well. I'm positive you'll do well with the mop. =) —Locke Cole • t • c 11:14, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Now you're going to get eleventy-one congratulation messages. I'm sure you'll work on increasing your Category talk edit count now that your an admin. ;-) —Doug Bell ^{talk•contrib} 11:22, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Congrats! - UtherSRG (talk) 11:33, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Congratulations! – WB 09:01, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Congratulations. Here are what pass for words of wisdom from the puppy:

Remember you will always protect the wrong version.
Remember you must always follow the rules, except for when you ignore them. You will always pick the wrong one to do. (See #5)
Remember to assume good faith and not bite. Remember that when you are applying these principles most diligently, you are probably dealing with a troll.
Use the block ability sparingly. Enjoy the insults you receive when you do block.
Remember when you make these errors, someone will be more than happy to point them out to you in dazzling clarity and descriptive terminology.
and finally, Remember to contact me if you ever need assistance, and I will do what I am able.

I give you the light of Earendil, our most beloved star. May it be a light for you in dark places, when all other lights go out...for if you, CBD, do not find a way, no one will. ;) Mir l e n 22:50, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

*laughs at Meegs's comment* Well, to play off that...here's a little for you. (Translation for the second sentence in giftie: May it be a tool to ward off vandals in Wikipedia, when nothing else seems to work :P).

Anyway, yes, methinks that you are right. We'll get the Tolkien articles in ship-shape. And very fitting that your 111 votes match Bilbo's age in the FotR. :D Congratulations on your RfA, CBD—I have full confidence in you. —Mir l e n 22:50, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My Vote

CBD, this might sound corny, but Wikipedia-wise, you're my John the Baptist more or less. When I got pissed off at people like POTW, who seemed to be out for little more than trying to hurt people, you tried to redeem him from that way of thinking.

I've tried to live up to that standard for awhile now(hell, Jimbo even stole my adminship over it), but i'm still not there yet, at least in this frame of reality. "The Real World" is going fairly well. Hopefully someday this place will too, but for now to be honest with you, it just makes me sick.

In any case congratulations. I also hope one day we can find an alternative for the default response. Karm a fist^{Save Wikipedia} 20:03, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, CBDunkerson! Thank you for your support in my recent successful request for adminship. If you ever have problems that you could use my assistance with or see me doing stupid things with my new buttons, don't hesitate to contact me. Happy editing, Kusma (討論) 02:38, 8 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hello CBDunkerson/RFAs. Thank you for your support in my RfA! It passed with a final tally of 91/3/5. I am quite humbled and pleased by the community's show of confidence in me. If you need help or just want to talk, let me know. Cheers! -- F a ng Aili ^說嗎?

Thank you for your support

Dear CBDunkerson,
Thank you very much for your support on my recent RfA. I am pleased to announce that it passed with a tally of 72/11/1, and I am now an administrator. I'll be taking things slowly at first and getting used to the tools, but please let me know if there are any admin jobs I can do to help you, now or in the future. —Cuivi é nen 02:24, 18 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Shiny new buttons

Two weeks ago I couldn't even spell administratur and now I are one (in no small part thanks to your support). Now that I checked out those new buttons I realize that I can unleash mutant monsters on unsuspecting articles or summon batteries of laser guns in their defense. The move button has now acquired special powers, and there's even a feature to roll back time. With such awesome new powers at my fingertips I will try to tread lightly to avoid causing irreversible damage and getting into any wheel wars. Thanks again and let me know whenever I can be of use.

RFA Thanks

Thanks!
Thanks for your input on my (nearly recent) Request for adminship, which regretfully achived no consensus, with votes of 68/28/2. I am grateful for the input received, both positive and in opposition, and I'd like to thank you for your participation.
