Please place your complaints here. It appears that no matter how an AfD is closed, it will offend SOMEBODY, therefore please place your complaints below. I will read them all, but I will not respond to them if they are rude. I am also likely to ignore your threats helpful comments and advice if your own closures are regularly up for deletion review... I do not take a simple head count of the !votes, I consider consensus and Wikipedia policy. I close Afds that are WP:SNOW keeps. Or if they are hopelessly locked, with three or more relistings, as WP:NOCONSENSUS. If they have less than three listings, I relist. If I closed a 20 day old hopelessly deadlocked discussion as "no consensus", please do not accuse me of doing a NAC on a "controversial" thread, as obviously there was no consensus, and it was wasting everyone's time, and needed to be closed. --Sue Rangell ✍ ✉ 18:50, 5 January 2013 (UTC)
Thanks for the WP:WikiLove I wish you a peaceful holiday. —[AlanM1(talk)]— 00:27, 22 December 2012 (UTC)
I've sewn together a ribbon bar of your awards for your user page, if you like:
I wish to have access to the account creation interface, so that I may assist with account creation requests.

Done
Sue Rangell, thank you for interest in the account creation process. I have verified your Identification and I have approved your request, welcome to the team. You may now access the interface here. Before you do so, please read the account creation guide and our username policy thoroughly to familiarize yourself with the process. You should also join us on IRC #wikipedia-en-accounts connect on where a bot informs us when new account requests come in and to get any advice on requests as well as the mailing list. Please note that we have implemented a policy of zero tolerance on mishandled requests, and that failure to assess correctly will result in suspension. I would like to emphasize that it is not a race to complete a request, and each one should be handled diligently and thoroughly. Currently you are allowed to create up to six accounts per day, although you won't be able to create an account with a similar name to that of another user; these requests are marked "Account Creator Needed" by the bot (No bot at this time) and "Flagged user needed" on the interface. However, if you reach the limit frequently, you can request the account creator permission at WP:PERM/ACC. Please keep in mind that the ACC tool is a powerful program, and misuse will result in your access being suspended by a tool administrator. Don't hesitate to get in touch with me if you have any questions. Thank you for participating in the account creation process. Again welcome! Mlpearc (powwow) 22:53, 29 December 2012 (UTC)

The Civility Barnstar |
You seem to be have a problem in regards of the recently deleted page about a meme. Thank you for your great work on maintaining the encyclopedia against those wild swarm of IPs. Have a nice day! Mediran talk to me! 01:37, 11 November 2012 (UTC) |
did you see the reason. that other person Omair00 Cut it from the Metalcore Page, Im in the process of checking a few things and posting it back. If someone wants those points added to the story then, whoever does needs to re-write their own version of the same facts, not take it from Metalcore thats kind of ridiculous. Its going back I am checking some dates to put it BACK in to The METALCORE PAGE with more impact than before by Placing it as Chronological as possible. However if Wiki allows copying one page and posting word for word on another than it will be the second version as thats been on the Metalcore page for at Least One Year, If I remember correctly. maybe longer . hope that was clear and easy read. I am in hurricane crushed area.24.0.67.248 (talk) 06:08, 15 November 2012 (UTC)
Hi !, Nice to Meet you too. I was signed in and somehow when I left the message above I had been signed out somehow, have no idea, I am going to analyze and idealistically maximize. Thats really cool to have edits whitelisted. I feel like I won a Wiki Award. anyhow have a really great day/evening , and thanks for looking in to what my message meant. Thank You again Miss Sue Rangel CombatMarshmallow (talk) 06:22, 15 November 2012 (UTC).
Awesome, I really like when people can "see" what my energy really is. Thank You You be Super-well. ! CombatMarshmallow (talk) 06:39, 15 November 2012 (UTC)
I may go to sleep, been a long tired storm. I have the paragraph on my desktop and my plan as of now is wake up, and tomorrow blend and add that section/paragraph in to the Metalcore Page. Only because after a recharge I can assess the article and take appropriate action . Thanks again, times seven. CombatMarshmallow (talk) 06:47, 15 November 2012 (UTC).
Hi, I havent put the cut-paste material back in metalcore but the same person just changed the whole page again and its not in tune with consensus . erasing sourced material. the same material that got the one editor to semi-protect the page. this person has a lot of warnings maybe they go and erase pages often. He effectively erase how it started and got until today. could you please show me what to do, or have him stop erasing mtv bands and others with sourced material. he cant change history. at Metalcore this guy / vandalize-r http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Omair00 this person all it does lately is Erase at metalcore. funny thing his edits arent true. all the stuff he/she erases is sourced . sorry hope that was easy to read. happy turkey day. — Preceding unsigned comment added by CombatMarshmallow (talk • contribs) 01:00, 23 November 2012 (UTC)
Thank You. It looks like everything is there. have a great day/night . CombatMarshmallow (talk) 03:29, 24 November 2012 (UTC)
Hi Sue Rangell , How are you! Happy New Year ! . that page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Omair00 is at it same as before. that page reverted all that we did. Most everything that page does, gets reverted from what I checked at other pages. If you look at the page history of metalcore its basically nothing helpful from that page. its been months erasing sourced material, mtv and real bands, and erasing real history. what to do ? Thanks CombatMarshmallow (talk) 04:41, 3 January 2013 (UTC)

The Original Barnstar |
Many thanks for your edits RFD (talk) 15:48, 20 December 2012 (UTC) |
Wow thank you very much! I belive that is my first "Original" barnstar. It's one I've always kinda wanted because it was the first, thank you very very much, I really appreciate it. Your edits are pretty awesome too. :) Be well. --Sue Rangell ✍ ✉ 18:58, 20 December 2012 (UTC)
Hi,
I just saw my submission for Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Susan Branch was again declined. I really want to get this right, and I thought I had done that by following the previously posted guidelines. I beefed up the references, tried to make it basic black and white facts, and am confident her work is notable.
You stated the article could be possible if sourcing were improved. Can you please explain that a little more so I can do just that and finish this up?
Thanks so much for your help and your comments. I really want to make this work.
Editwriter98 (talk) 15:30, 26 December 2012 (UTC)
I would most gratefully and humbly accept that offer! I thought I was doing things correctly, but am not getting it quite the way Wiki wants it. What would you recommend as my next step?
Editwriter98 (talk) 16:13, 27 December 2012 (UTC)
The next step is for me to have a look at the article. Give me a day or three to play with it and see if I can find some sourcing. :) --Sue Rangell ✍ ✉ 18:42, 27 December 2012 (UTC)
I cannot thank you enough for your help. I really appreciate it!
Editwriter98 (talk) 19:59, 27 December 2012 (UTC)
I made some changes for you, I hope you appreciate them. You might want to consider researching some of the other similar articles about other authors and examine how they are worded, formatted, etc. It will give you a better handle on improving this article, or writing similar ones. Be well. --Sue Rangell ✍ ✉ 21:38, 28 December 2012 (UTC)
Yes, I appreciate your comments and your willingness to spend time on this more than you can know. Thank you so much for your help, your additions, and your time. I will continue to look at other similar articles and try to refine it even more. As far as the sourcing, do you think I need more references or is it sufficient? thanks againa nd all the best in the new year to you and yours! Editwriter98 (talk) 15:44, 29 December 2012 (UTC)

The Barnstar of Diligence |
Thanks for all your hard-work in WP:AFD and WP:PROD. Keep it up! LlamaAl (talk) 00:45, 29 December 2012 (UTC) |
You are very welcome, thank you very much! --Sue Rangell ✍ ✉ 00:46, 29 December 2012 (UTC)
Hello Sue Rangell, I recently noticed that you added "The Barnstar of Diplomacy" to the page User talk:Beyond My Ken (). May I ask you why? I find it hard to understand, considering the user in question recently violated WP:3RR (see , , and [he even made further reverts during the next few hours, as you can see at ]), and then went to my talk page, and threatened to report me for "disruptive editing", even though I had not violated the 3RR. In the history of his talk page, one can find material such as "You are totally out of your league in this instance, so I suggest you deal with subjects about which you know something, and keep your nose out of things about which you clearly know nothing. In other words: please fuck off." (), as well as an edit summary containing the passage "this piece of bullshit" (). The user in question also strikes me as uncooperative; I invited him to take part in a discussion found at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Classical music, and he ignored that (). This is not what I associate with diplomacy, and I'm curious why you appear to think otherwise. Best wishes, Toccata quarta (talk) 13:44, 29 December 2012 (UTC)

Per the previous discussion about Non-Admin Closures of AfDs, I would like to invite you to re-nominate MUD trees for deletion.
If you do not intend to re-nominate, I will request a review at WP:DRV citing the above inconsistencies with the first AfD. Please let me know within a reasonable time (~3 days) so that the issue may be addressed. Hasteur (talk) 17:44, 25 January 2013 (UTC)

The Resilient Barnstar |
Hey Sue. It's been days since you last edited here in the English Wikipedia and it's really worrying me and probably the rest of Wikipedia that you might not come back after that issue at ANI, I guess. Wikipedia needs great people like you and I hope you edit back and help again to improve this encyclopedia you once lived with. Now, at this very moment, I award you this Resilient Barnstar to cheer you up and as per this Barnstar is awarded to any editor who learns and improves from criticisms, never letting mistakes impede their growth as an editor. I wish anything that happen in the past is that you will learn from it and let's just get back in building this encyclopedia. "There's nothing as exciting as a comeback - seeing someone with dreams, watching them fail, and then getting a second chance. " - Rachel Griffiths |
When I run into a problem like that, I don't run away. I won't ever leave Wikipedia so no worries there. If the drama gets too thick, I simply move to a different area of Wikipedia. I have been focusing on more administrative aspects of Wikipedia, such as Account Creation. So don't worry, I'm always here. --Sue Rangell ✍ ✉ 19:14, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
Hi. You've been selected at random from WP:FRS, where you are listed as an editor willing to help with RfCs related to biographical articles. If you have time, could you provide your input to an RfC here involving issues of libel and defmation in relation to author Jared Diamond. Cheers. --Noleander (talk) 03:23, 11 February 2013 (UTC)
