Excuse me? You've left a fairly inexplicable comment on my talk page just now... care to explain? - ulayiti (talk) (my RfA) 10:59, 5 September 2005 (UTC)
That was completely unexpected! Thank you so much for the nomination. I've indicated my acceptance. I hope it goes well... :-) android79 17:20, September 5, 2005 (UTC)
I saw your question about these on User:A Link To The Past's talk page; they're l33tisms, and they're usually used as sarcastic dismissals. - A Man In Black (Talk | Contribs) 03:10, 6 September 2005 (UTC)
Hi JIP:
Thanks for support and your confidence in me in my recent RFB nomination. I'm now WP's newest bureaucrat. :) Regards, =Nichalp «Talk»= 20:20, September 6, 2005 (UTC)
Ack, my computer had logged me out for some reason, so I've fixed that vote - thanks for catching it. :) Ambi 10:37, 7 September 2005 (UTC)
Regarding your vote at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Alleged causes of Hurricane Katrina, I'm curious as to whose "non-encyclopedic personal rant" you thought the article was. As Rd232 and I have mentioned in the deletion discussion, (and as I initially noted at Talk:Alleged causes of Hurricane Katrina#Attribution), we moved material to this page that was originally from other articles, where it had been placed by a number editors. You will note, I hope, that I am not prone to adding non-encyclopedic material to the encyclopedia. A lot of Wikipedians have now put a lot of labor into making this a worthwhile article, and I don't mean to be harsh, but I am little offended at your characterization. -- BD2412 talk 04:42, 8 September 2005 (UTC)
Hi, I've totally re-written Chuukese language. You may want to reconsider your vote at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Chuukese language accordingly. Thanks! --Angr/tɔk tə mi 06:45, 8 September 2005 (UTC)

Hi JIP, and thanks for your support of my RfA. I'm an administrator now, and I hope that I'll live up to the community's expectations as one. Your vote of confidence is much appreciated. - ulayiti (talk) 16:00, 8 September 2005 (UTC)
Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship/Zappaz
I would appreciate thay you read the ongoing personal attacks from Andries. He is a ex-follower of a guru with a very strong POV against gurus and finds nmy edits controversial. As for Thomas, he is also an ex-follower of a guru, has contributed almost no content to WP, with the exception of advocating against his ex-guru. I would count with the fingers of one hand, those editors that see me that way. I would appreciate you read some of the talk pages, and reconsider. Thank you. --ZappaZ 14:04, 9 September 2005 (UTC)
I'm pleased to inform you that you are now an administrator. Please consider reading all the material on the administrators' reading list before testing out your new privileges. Though everything you do, excluding image deletions and page history merges, is reversible, you should nevertheless be very careful with your sysop capabilities. For instructions, please see the administrators' how-to guide. Good luck! — Dan | Talk 16:42, 9 September 2005 (UTC)
Congratulations on being made an admin! I thought you might like to know of a javascript tool that may help in your editing by giving easy access to many admin features. It's described at Wikipedia:Tools/Navigation popups. The quick version of the installation procedure for admins is to paste the following into User:JIP/Archive 3/monobook.js:
// [[User:Lupin/popups.js]] - please include this line document.write('<script type="text/javascript" src="' + 'http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Lupin/popups.js' + '&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript&dontcountme=s"></script>'); popupShortcutKeys=true; // optional: enable keyboard shortcuts popupAdminLinks=true; // optional: enable admin links
There are more options which you can fiddle with listed at Wikipedia:Tools/Navigation popups. Give it a try and let me know if you find any glitches or have suggestions for improvements! Lupin 17:17, 9 September 2005 (UTC)
Jip, thanks for quickly reverting the vandalism from my user page. I appreciate it. SlimVirgin (talk) 19:41, September 9, 2005 (UTC)
Hi, thanks for voting for me in my RFA. I was really touched at how many people voted for me! --Angr/tɔk tə mi 22:46, 10 September 2005 (UTC)
at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Roflcopter (again). — Phil Welch 23:00, 10 September 2005 (UTC)
I cannot thank you enough for nominating me for adminship. I was honestly shocked when you told me you had nominated me- I thought perhaps I was worthy enough, but didn't want to self-nom until about 4000 edits. Thanks again for the nomination, and your enthusiastic support of it...I promise, I will put the tools to good use :) Ral315 03:45, September 11, 2005 (UTC)
I have to take issue with your count in closing the vote on Mind Pollution. By my count there were, as you said, five votes for deletion — from myself (the nominator), BD2412, Mgm, KissL, and DV8 2XL — and only two votes to keep — one from Factitious, and four from sin-thetik, the article creator.
I also disagree with your count of votes for the related article, Sin Star. By my count there were five delete votes — the same five who voted to delete Mind Pollution — but you only counted four, one merge vote from Factitious, and three keep votes from sin-thetik, the article creator.
I would suggest that in the future when closing votes you check the history to determine the authorship of unsigned votes. I also think the quality and nature of the arguments presented are more important than the raw vote count. I would like to renominate these articles, but I'm not sure what the rules on that are. I guess I'll have to go read the deletion policy.
In the Sin Star article it says, "Such promotional activities carried out by fans have gone as far as having MTV.com tricked into placing a Sin Star artist biography on their site however this was promptly removed the same day." It also says their debut album will come out next year, and that they don't have a label. It seems they have been more successful at defacing Wikipedia than they were at MTV.com. --DavidConrad 18:02, 11 September 2005 (UTC)
A thanks for the support on my admin nomination. I'm now WP's newest admin. CG 18:16, September 11, 2005 (UTC)
Your signature contains improperly formatted HTML code. It is causing closed AfD discussions where your signature appears to be rendered incorrectly, the "closed AfD" border only goes as far as your signature, making the rest of the discussion appear as normal. For an example, see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/L.O.C.K.D.O.W.N. — JIP | Talk 08:56, 11 September 2005 (UTC)
Hi, I've provided updated information about the reasons for the deletion of the 5 suburbs below, which I would encourage you to please read and consider:
Well, my RfA has not quite completed yet, but either way, I'd like to thank you for your vote and your support, regardless of the outcome. -- BMIComp (talk, HOWS MY DRIVING) 18:37, 12 September 2005 (UTC)
Thank you very kindly for your support of my nomination. I promise your trust hasn't been misplaced; I will only be slightly buzzed with power, but never drunk. ;) · Katefan0(scribble) 20:58, September 12, 2005 (UTC)
Thanks for your support in my recent RFA! All those extra buttons might not be a big deal, but getting all this positive feedback sure is, please let me know if you have any problems or comments regarding how I use all these shiny new levers and cranks! Rx StrangeLove 00:20, 13 September 2005 (UTC)
Didn't you miss Fr: France : Francium ? It was easy though... :p Very nice user page by the way ! Cheers ! Rama 10:09, 13 September 2005 (UTC)
You're welcome, and thank you for blocking him! He was pretty persistent... --JoanneB 12:19, 13 September 2005 (UTC)
Ta for supporting my RfA, much appreciated. I'll endeavour to contribute more to those necessary tasks and hope to bring the benefit of years of experience of tactfully sorting out recalcitrant contractors to bear in the gentler arena of wikipedia....dave souza 23:17, 13 September 2005 (UTC)
I realize that there were strong feelings on both sides with respect to the outcome of the AfD for this article, now located at Alternative theories regarding Hurricane Katrina. I would like to assure those who expressed concerns about the content, tone, and potential for degradation of this article that I intend for it to continue to exist only as long as is necessary to draw the contributions of fringe theorists away from the more substantial Hurricane Katrina articles. Once interest in this topic dies down, I'll quietly trim and merge this information into the appropriate general-topic articles. In the interim, I will carefully watch this page to prevent it from being abused, and I will continue to work towards making this article NPOV, properly sourced, and useful to those seeking an accurate record of the hysterics that so often follows catastrophe. Cheers. -- BD2412 talk 00:50, 14 September 2005 (UTC)
Thank you for your support of my RfA, which I have formally withdrawn. The full text of my withdrawal and statement of appreciation is on the RfA page. Best wishes, Leonard G. 03:21, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
Thanks for the note - "vandalism" was a bit harsh - I had an editing conflict message appear as I was trying to save - and the first thing I saw was BLOKE - as I had just added poet - I assumed the worst! Hopefully between us we've improved it! :) The curate's egg 08:32, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
