lots of edits, not an admin

Hi - I made a list of users who've been around long enough to have made lots of edits but aren't admins. If you're at all interested in becoming an admin, can you please add an '*' immediately before your name in this list? I've suggested folks nominating someone might want to puruse this list, although there is certainly no guarantee anyone will ever look at it. Thanks. -- Rick Block (talk) 00:35, Jun 16, 2005 (UTC)

I saw you were the only editor, with over 20000 edits, whose name is in bold, indicating a willingness to be nominated for adminstrator, whose entry indicates they have not been nominated. Have you, in fact, not been nominated, even though your name appears to have been in bold for over two years? Are you still interested? Geo Swan 16:28, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

I just moved my entry into the 20,000 edit band. I considered putting my name in bold -- then I read the discussions of some of those who had previously been nominated, and chose not to.

Cheers! Geo Swan 16:28, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

I agree. —Grstain | Talk 18:10, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

National Trust

Re. your entry on Sydney Harb. Nat. Pk, what did you mean by "dab national trust"? Can't work it out.

Hi, I just wondered how the page on the Literary Translators' Association came about. I'm an LTAC member and had only recently thought about creating a wikipedia entry for the association. It's nice that it already exists. Are you a member of LTAC, Grstain? Or do you just add associations of various couleurs to wikipedia? Cheers Handlore (talk) 11:18, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of ATIM

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on ATIM requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G14 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a disambiguation page which either

• disambiguates only one extant Wikipedia page and whose title ends in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic);
• disambiguates zero extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title; or
• is an orphaned redirect with a title ending in "(disambiguation)" that does not target a disambiguation page or page that has a disambiguation-like function.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.
