User talk:Jacina

Welcome!

Feel free to comment, criticize etc right here.

Don't expect fast answers, I'm pretty busy with my real job and only pop onto wikipedia once in a while.

Re: I prefer IP editing due to the unique challenges it offers ;)

What unique challenges does it offer? Neal (talk) 14:05, 9 April 2008 (UTC).[reply]

Hmmm:

1. Getting reverted by bots (great fun)
2. Not being able to edit protected articles, and getting accused of "drive by commenting" if you say anything :)
3. Of course the pervasive "you are an IP anon editor, you must be a vandal/POV pusher/whatever" assumption of good faith brings on a few smiles as well ;)
Those are definitly unique... the bot one is cute.Jacina (talk) 10:51, 10 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

And you prefer that?? ;o Neal (talk) 15:48, 10 April 2008 (UTC).[reply]

Oh definitly, gives me something to mutter about :D (cool getting the hang of formatting the numbered list looks just THAT MUCH BETTER hehe)
Also I'm currently way too busy to actually spend a lot of time on wikipedia, if I'd actually have the time to write a larger article, I'd definitly sign with my account name ;) Jacina (talk) 13:25, 11 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, nothing all too glorious I'm afraid :-/ Editing by IP also shows some of the fatal flaws a lot of people have here with AGF I don't understand where the whole "we're under attack, ban anything weird" comes from o.O at least its visible in some of the current discussions about policy and whatnot. BUT I'm am sure that wikipedia, like a lot of other big projects, has a "silent majority" who is sensible, sad to say only the loud and obnoxious actually talk :P Its when these two areas collide that there is a bigger fallout. The problem there is that admins generally belong to the outspoken organized group (note: that does not mean obnoxious! not in all cases ;) ) while the editors don't really bother about the administrative part of wikipedia until they land in a situation where they SHOULD know it all and are chastized when they don't :P Ah well enough ranting. Imo wikipedia would do well to cut back on the obviously bloated bureaucracy... Jacina (talk) 11:17, 17 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

RFA thanks[edit]

Thanks for your support in my RFA, that didn't quite make it and ended at 120/47/13. There was a ton of great advice there, that I'm going to go on. Maybe someday. If not, there are articles to write! Thanks for your support. Lawrence § t/e 18:00, 12 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please consider taking the AGF Challenge[edit]

I would like to invite you to consider taking part in the AGF Challenge which has been proposed for use in the RfA process [1] by User: Kim Bruning. You can answer in multiple choice format, or using essay answers, or anonymously. You can of course skip any parts of the Challenge you find objectionable or inadvisable.--Filll (talk) 00:44, 5 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Filll (gee that extra l took me a while to actually see ;) ) I like your interesting questions, however I think I'll skip answering them. I just hate trick questions ;) I do appreciate your effort in making these problems more visible. Jacina (talk) 08:30, 9 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

RFA Thanks[edit]

Thanks for your support at my recent Request for adminship. I hope you find I live up to your expectations. Best, Risker (talk) 15:48, 16 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

My RfA[edit]

Thank you for your participation at my RfA, which passed with a count of (166/43/7). I appreciate your comments and in my actions as an administrator I will endeavor to act in ways that earn your full confidence, even though I don't have it now. Cirt (talk) 01:39, 16 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re Repeated misuse of editing privileges?[edit]

Sorry for the confusion. If you check the block log you will see the reason for the block. I just used a standard template to tag it. Let me know if you have any questions. KnightLago (talk) 13:26, 6 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
