Amgine Administratorship

Hello. You can vote for or against Amgine becoming an administrator of Wiktionary here:[1]. See ya', The Champion 01:33, 13 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hi again. It looks like Amgine is up for de-administratorship on Wikinews here: [2] (Anyone can vote.) Take it easy, buddy, The Champion 01:53, 14 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Not everyone can vote. You must be a registered user, or at least a contributor, to vote in a community poll. Please abstain from voting on projects on which you have not contributed to. --Mrmiscellanious 04:03, 16 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

It looks like MrMiscellanious [sic] is lying about that [3]. It turns out that you are allowed to vote. Primetime 21:04, 16 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, yes. You can certainly vote, but it'll never be counted. Plus, don't you think it's kind of trollish? I mean, don't you have a life other than to attempt to destroy someone's online reputation on other wikis because you don't like him? There's a rhetorical question. --Mrmiscellanious 16:17, 17 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

capitals in Freemasonry pages

this thread consolidated, & moved to Freemasonry's Talk page

DreamGuy, I didn't do any of this thread's moving out of malice, wanted it in one place for all of our consideration. Did the same on your talk page.

Vandalism

As you are a member of Wikipedia, and should know the foundation-wide policies are similar, you are now blocked for six months on Wikinews for your actions on manipulating other user's signed quotes on a community-consensus poll. --Mrmiscellanious 20:05, 16 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

This is from my block page, which I did NOT do.: The reason given is this: Impersonating another user on community-consensus poll. This is a static IP.

I cannpt for the life of me figure out how to dispute this. The IRC channel sent to is down, & I've spent over an hour that I don't have right now trying to get around that.

Hey Grye, Did my e-mail get through? One way to dispute it would be visiting the user pages of the Wikinews administrators listed here. Then, in the toolbox listed below the search box on the left side of the screen it should have an E-mail this user option on each page. Even though you're banned, you can still create an account, enter in an e-mail address in your preferences, and then e-mail them. Primetime 22:37, 16 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think I can create an account [from here], I think he blocked my IP.

& I can't use the IRC, it's down.

I understand now...

According to the [U.S.] Department of Education's 2003 National Assessment of Adult Literacy, only about 13% of Americans are capable of comparative analysis, & 5% cannot understand a restaurant bill or grocery receipt.

With that, I now say "nevermind. Go ahead with whatever you were doing. if I notice something askew, I'll only tell you once. No argument here."
