I lolled at the following vote by Xeeron:

  • "Support. I almost feel bad in saying this, but Gem is as close as we are ever going to get to having an AdminBot ;-) --Xeeron 21:56, 14 July 2007 (UTC)"

-- Gem (gem / talk) 22:02, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

Reply to Eloc: I am only contributing to this wiki atm. :D See this edit on GuildWiki which I did yesterday to show people that I do not edit that wiki at all. -- Gem (gem / talk) 09:17, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

Note: I have since changed my mind on this and would strike this out if the RFA were not already closed.--§ Eloc § 00:42, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

Lost in the cracks...[edit]

This RfA is lost in the cracks. It vanished from the main RFA page and does not show up in any categories. What should be done? Is it considered failed? Or should we create a new category for incomplete/withdrawn RfAs? --Karlos 00:29, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

The RfA status note reads "failed", I'd assume that's where it should go for now. Go to Aiiane's Talk page (Aiiane - talk - contribs) 00:35, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
Also note that it is listed in Category:Failed reconfirmations. Go to Aiiane's Talk page (Aiiane - talk - contribs) 00:37, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
I see what the probelm is... There's a category for RfAs and one for Reconfirmations. That's overkill and incorrect. If someone was put up for reconfirmation and failed (as might be my case) then I think the next time someone puts that guy up for RfA, that others should be able to see if his Reconfrimation failed. Putting reconfirmations in a separate tree from RfAs makes them immediately not visible.
I see that you put the reconfirmations category in the RFA page, but I think the better solution is to remove the reconfirmation category altogether. --Karlos 00:49, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
