This archive contains discussions relating to RfA and RfC. Your RfAeditYou may need this seeing as the tally on your RfA keeps growing  Hello BD2412/Archive - RfA (third 50), {{subst:User:BD2412/thanks|Personal message|sig<for time reasons>}} :-) Prodegotalk 15:32, 6 December 2005 (UTC) Your RfAeditHeh, I knew one day, if you EVER accepted an RFA, you would get the record for support. 169/0/0? That's just creepy. I didn't know we even had that many editors who knew RfA exists ;) Now go vandalize today's featured article. Redwolf24 (talk) Attention Washingtonians! 05:05, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
Well, it looks like I won't be the first to congratulate you, but at least I got here before it got too crowded. Congratulations on the strong show of support that you received from the community. You have earned every one of those votes. DS1953 05:59, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
Congrats. I'm sure you'll do very well. Cheers. PJM 06:26, 8 December 2005 (UTC) I'm an admin now!!edit  Hi, thanks for voting on my rfa - the final tally was 50-0-0. I made your tally 176-0-0 and hope that it crosses 200. btw, just saw ur user page - it may be considered inappropriate that you mentioned your standing for rfa either on ur user page or talkpage. And, on the lighter side, I think that nominations like ours shd be shown as links instead of transclusion once they cross 20-0-0 ;) --Gurubrahma 12:00, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
Your RfAeditGetting a little cocky now aren't you ;-) "Although my RfA is not over yet" you never know, maybe 168 people will vote against you in the next day! Congratulations on your impending success(Now I can say I was the first to congratulate you) As an added bonus, now you will get to be my new Essjay, you will get to block all the vandals that I need blocked. Have fun. Prodegotalk 13:54, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
CongratseditThe RfA's going well, isn't it? What's your secret? Take my מזל טוב/Mazal Tov/Congratulations now before all your 176 supporters fill your talk page with them (at least you'll remmber mine) ;-) Izehar (talk) 14:06, 7 December 2005 (UTC) Although my RfA is not over yet, I figured that since so many people (ahem!) voted before it had been posted, I may as well start thanking people before it wraps up. Hall Monitor, your support is particularly meaningful to me, because I know what a damn fine admin you are, and will be privileged to be part of any group of which you are a member. I'll do my best as an admin to make the reality rise to the level of the dream. BD2412 T 04:56, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
Your RFAeditI don't remember ever not wanting to support you, were you thinking of someone else? :) --Phroziac . o º O (mmmmm chocolate!) 17:30, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
CongratseditMight as well congratulate you now. :) A new record too. Congrats and see you around! --a.n.o.n.y.m t 19:23, 7 December 2005 (UTC) RfAeditCongrats on your successful RfA Prodego talk 00:07, 8 December 2005 (UTC) Congratulations, and thanks for the thanks (although do I really deserve two lots?). Having seen your message on a few user talk pages I happen to have on my watchlist earlier, and then later seeing the message on mine made me think of you as paralleling Wowbagger - just with thanks not insults :). Thryduulf 00:17, 8 December 2005 (UTC) 
CongratulationseditIt has got to be a Wikipedia record. Glad I got to vote in the most successful RFA candiacy of all time. I am sure you will do well. Again congratulations.--Dakota t e 02:19, 8 December 2005 (UTC) FelicitaçõeseditNo problem; no one deserves it more than you : ). εγκυκλοπαίδεια* (talk) 02:30, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
RFAeditI fear I was out of commission on a tall ship when your RFA was begun (one I hoped to do myself, but knew I would have to fight many others for the honor of instigating) and now there are too many damn support votes that my browser can't handle the sheer size. So I'm casting my support vote, along with my simultaneous congratulations, here. I knew it would be a record, but I didn't know you'd blow the hinges off the ceiling with such velocity. (Note: mixing metaphors is a hobby of mine.) Well done, and welcome to the SysopeditIt's my pleasure to notify you that, consensus being reached (by the largest margin I've ever seen!), you're now a administrator. You may wish to read the reading list and how-to guide at your convenience. Most sysop actions are reversible, the exceptions being history merges and deleting pages (but it's a good idea to be careful with all of them). Again, congrats on becoming an admin. -- Pakaran 02:55, 8 December 2005 (UTC) Your RFAeditCongratulations! You've beaten the previous record by 71 votes, and I think you can wield that mop with pride! --Merovingian 03:10, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
Congrats, yet againeditCongratulations on your adminship. I've only been contributing to Wikipedia for about seven weeks now, but I've come to recognize your user name and signature as a guarantee of high-quality and trustworthy edits. Also, I like the new color of your signature. Are you going to keep it? --TantalumTelluride 03:43, 8 December 2005 (UTC) CongratulationseditYour fan club is so enormous that you can call on an army to support any decision you make, you know. As of now, you are at the head of my super-secret list of users who could, in an emergency, usurp Jimbo without any complaints. My only worry about you is that I wonder whether, or if ever, you sleep. Of course, I've never seen it affect the quality of your excellent work. So, whether you're a parasomniac, an android, or just an average superhuman, I'm glad Wikipedia reaps the benefit of your power! :) Best wishes, Xoloz 04:25, 8 December 2005 (UTC) Well, that was close!editNice to see that you squeaked by... Good luck, brother! See you 'round the wiki! Hamster Sandwich 04:44, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
Not at all impressed. There are a handful of wiki editors who didn't vote for you! I suggest we make a list of them and shame them... (seriously, congrats. The vote speaks for itself) Grutness...wha? 05:19, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
CongratseditCongrats on your promotion. I hope you can continue working at the same level you are now. Officially, your record stands at 183/0/0. Enochlau's vote was made late after the deadline, and I adjusted it on your RFA page. [1] I personally do not think counting late votes is fair. Most of them occur between the time that the vote ends and when a bureaucrat actually processes it. This period may vary, such as Ann Heneghan's RFA, which was closed by a bureaucrat almost a full day after the deadline – 4 late votes were made. Don't you agree?

Your RfAedit  China! ;-) Sango123 (talk) 20:47, 8 December 2005 (UTC)Congratulations (just piling on, again...) but we Germans like to pile it up. :)) Lectonar 09:05, 8 December 2005 (UTC)

Just here to give you a belated congratulations. You'll do great as an admin. -Greg Asche (talk) 21:25, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
You're Welcome!edit Congrats on your record breaking victory, Mr. Chewbacca! I was wondering if I could get your opinion on my "wiki-lawyering" here. I personally think being a lawyer would be fun if not for the time and money it'd cost to go through law school. karmafist 21:38, 8 December 2005 (UTC) My RfAeditBD, thanks for your support on my RfA. The final count was 46/0/0, which was quite nice, but nowhere near your ten billion or so ;) I hope I'll live up to your faith in me in my use of the mop and bucket. Please accept this wikithanks as a token of my gratitude ;) --bainer (talk) 23:04, 8 December 2005 (UTC) Early RFA thanksedit Hi BD2412/Archive - RfA (third 50), Thank you very much for your support on my RfA. It has done very well and is currently at 67/0/2. As such, I am posting this in advance of its closure. If I can ever help with anything or if you have any comments about my actions as an admin, please let me know. Thank you once again! – NSLE (T C CVU) 01:00, 9 December 2005 (UTC)PS, special mention, congrats on your own adminship. What an amazing final tally! NSLE (T C CVU) 01:00, 9 December 2005 (UTC) My failed RFA :)edit BD2412, I would like to thank you for supporting me on my RfA. Even though it failed with a with the final tally of 55/22/6, I want to thank you anyways. I don't want to be one a admin anymore until I reach 10,000 edits. Thanks --Jaranda wat's sup 01:49, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
It seems like that issue is in a gray area. In fact, I am not even sure if most of the bureaucrats check whether or not a nominator has actually cast a support vote. It is certainly not explicitly expressed on WP:RFA. In your RFA, that one vote is not significant enough to change the outcome of the vote, or what's listed on my records page. But I would really only be concerned if that one single vote made a difference on whether or not one is promoted.

Yet Another RFA Thank You Note to clutter up your talk page...editBD2412: Just wanted to drop you a note to say thanks for supporting me in my recent RFA. While I didn't get as much outright support (or even as many votes, total, as your support votes <g>), I did manage to squeak into a promotion to admin with a final tally of 46/13/2. I will now strive to make sure that no one who supported my RFA ever has cause to regret that support. All the best. Thanks for the free legal counsel!edit  Hey BD2412/Archive - RfA (third 50)! Thanks for your support on my RfA. The final outcome was (57/4/3), so I am now an administrator. If you need help, have a question, or just want to chat (or if I get out of line!), please don't hesitate to let me know! Again, thanks! :D Oh no!editI missed your RFA! Not that it matters, but you have my vote, anytime. - Ta bu shi da yu 07:22, 13 December 2005 (UTC) RfAeditSure, BD2412, you're the most deserving candidate I ever voted for! deeptrivia (talk) 16:34, 13 December 2005 (UTC) HelloeditThanks for the help and congrats on your rfa once again. --a.n.o.n.y.m t 20:19, 13 December 2005 (UTC) Alhutch's RfAeditDear BD2412 (he who has a shockingly high number of edits ;-)), I'm an administrator, and I've got you to thank for it! Thanks to your support, my RfA passed 25/0. Please don't hesitate to contact me if I can help you with anything. See you around the wiki, :-) Alhutch 05:49, 14 December 2005 (UTC) SoLando's RFAedit
Thanks for your wonderful support!editI would like to sincerely thank you for voting for me and congratulating me after my recent RfA. I have learnt a great deal from your high standard of editing. Your RFAeditIt's no problem, I had to return the favor after your very enthusiatic Support to my RFA.

Those are just a joy!! :-) I patrol RfP alot. I just protected the Chinese New Years greetings article. It has a revert/move/redirect war...all at the same time! And 4-5 editors all claiming consensus when they have none. They don't pay us enough. ;-) --Woohookitty(cat scratches) 14:56, 21 December 2005 (UTC) Dispute resolution clauseeditThis is to formally notify you that I do not agree to the terms of the Dispute resolution clause paragraph posted at the top of this page. Personally, I prefer guns at dawn for dispute resolution ;-). Not that I plan to have any disputes with you, but I thought I would mention it before the situation came up. As a lawyer, what is your opinion of the enforcability of such a paragraph? If you believe it is a good thing for Wikipedia, you should make a template and encourage users to add it to their user talk pages (like we do with license agreements on user pages). Best Regards, NoSeptember talk 15:40, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
Mon beau RfAeditSadly, a burglar stole all of my shiny colored boxes and pictures that I use for RfA thanks. Nevertheless... Thanks for supporting my RfA. The final tally was a smashing 22/4/1.
