User talk:Jredmond
Dear Jredmond, Please, may I ask if you would invite Fulumenae back. I would think she took too much to heart the situation over the Saint Philomena article. I'v placed, in the talk page of the same article pointers that clarify. I do not know her. But I do think her expertese would be of value. After all, alot of the right was on her side over Saint Philomena's article page and talk page. An Encyclopedia has to be all embracing, and I came up against this with the Saint Athanasius' article page, but followed, with your Editors help the correct procedure. The same problem is on the Hosius of Corduba article page. Revert wars are of course bad, but then it is in the past and for sensitive souls this menia is taken to heart unlike any other.

That's a useful thing to do, but there are two things you should do as a follow-up:
Actually, I am beginning to think that userfying these autobios is a bit of a waste of time because they almost never continue as constructive editors - they are nearly all here only to post about themselves. Still, it is a more friendly and less WP:BITEy way to deal with them than speedying. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 20:25, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
OTRS page moveI don't want to be rude, but you essentially renamed a major Foundation project without asking... At the very least you need to float a proposal on this one, rather than just do it. Please revert and open a discussion. Georgewilliamherbert (talk) 21:41, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

Audit SubcommitteeHi. I have asked a followup question at the now quite delayed Wikipedia_talk:Arbitration_Committee/Audit_Subcommittee#Regarding_disputed_oversights_for_an_Arbitrator. If there isn't an explanation forthcoming within the next 48 hours regarding the mandate of the subcommittee, I will ask that it be folded back up as failed.

Happy Jredmond's Day!
For a userbox you can add to your userbox page, see User:Rlevse/Today/Happy Me Day! and my own userpage for a sample of how to use it. — Rlevse • Talk • 01:19, 13 December 2009 (UTC) WeekendThe weekend now being unambiguously, globaly, certainly over, I'm going to have to insist that the Audit Subcommittee release a statement in a specified timeframe. If the comittee cannot release a statement within the next 24 hours, I'm going to mark the comittee as historical and sugest a return to the "loud shouting and backchannel influence peddling" method of audit. Hipocrite (talk) 14:05, 14 December 2009 (UTC) Arbitration case involving you.I have opened a case to attempt to get some clarity on the mandate of the Audit Subcomittee. The case can be found at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case#Audit_Subcommittee. You are a named party only in your capacity as a member of the Committee. Hipocrite (talk) 18:25, 14 December 2009 (UTC) ThanksThank you for releasing the report. It is difficult for any comittee to write a document. I apologize for being such a bother through the process, and merely hope that no one holds it against anyone. Hipocrite (talk) 14:05, 17 December 2009 (UTC) Season's greetings

My response to the AUSC reportis here [1]. I want to make absolutely sure you've been given a chance to respond to it. -- JohnWBarber (talk) 22:42, 19 January 2010 (UTC) Hello, Jredmond! I sort of picked your name out of a hat, as I see you are an administrator on the Volunteer Response Team. I'm trying to get an image into WP Commons, and I originally uploaded it off of Flickr, thinking it was a probably unknown source taken illegally at a Doors concert. After the image barely survived FfD, an administrator gave me time to find the correct source, or it would be put up for deletion again. I went so far as to contact a professional photographer that was at the infamous Miami concert, David E. LeVine. He e-mailed me back on my personal G-mail account, and I posted his response here. I sent both my original e-mail to Mr. LeVine and his response to me to permissions-commons@wikimedia.org on January 31, and have yet to receive any response whatsoever. I appreciate your time in reading this, and I'm hoping that if you cannot help me, perhaps you can point me in the direction I need to go to get this image on the Commons. I appreciate any response you can give me at your earliest convenience. Thank you!

It seemed inappropriate, especially given the rather violent tone, but I'm still pretty new to Wikipedia and wasn't completely sure where the "line" was on talk pages (still learning). One newbie question: should this policy also extend to what this anonymous editor just did to their own talk page (User talk:124.157.190.228)? -- Bgpaulus (talk) 18:49, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

Identifiable people imagesHi, I saw you on the OTRS volunteer list and was wondering if you could help direct me to the proper way to show consent from the subject of an image where the person is identifiable. The photographer has sent in an OTRS ticket, and the subject is his wife. He said that his wife knew the image was being used on WP and was happy about it. But an RFC recently closed to remove the image until further consent from the subject could be confirmed. How do I got about doing this? Have the subject write OTRS? Thanks!

This semester I've been running a little experiment at MSU, a class where we teach students about becoming Wikipedia administrators. Not a lot is known about your community, and our students (who are fascinated by wiki-culture by the way!) want to learn how you do what you do, and why you do it. A while back I proposed this idea (the class) to the communityHERE, where it was met mainly with positive feedback. Anyhow, I'd like my students to speak with a few administrators to get a sense of admin experiences, training, motivations, likes, dislikes, etc. We were wondering if you'd be interested in speaking with one of our students.
If you have questions or concerns at any time, feel free to email me at obar@msu.edu. I will be more than happy to speak with you. Thanks in advance for your help. We have a lot to learn from you. Sincerely, Jonathan Obar --Jaobar (talk) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chlopeck (talk • contribs) 23:10, 15 February 2012 (UTC) Regarding the subject of this article, the individual was executed for murder. However, this has been a high-profile rancorous case in China and the title of the article is Yao Jiaxin murder case rather than (say) a more factually accurate Yao Jiaxin execution case. I suspect that any attempt to rename this article would lead to an edit war and so ask for your help in deciding if, what and how to address this apparent deviation from NPV.

As a result of this discussion, your administrative permissions will be removed pending your return if you do not return to activity within the next month. If you wish to have these permissions reinstated should this occur, please post to the Wikipedia:Bureaucrats' noticeboard and the userright will be restored per the re-sysopping process (i.e. as long as the attending bureaucrats are reasonably satisfied that your account has not been compromised, that your inactivity did not have the effect of evading scrutiny of any actions which might have led to sanctions, and that you have not been inactive for a three-year period of time). If you remain inactive for a three-year period of time, including the present year you have been inactive, you will need to request reinstatement at WP:RFA. This removal of access is procedural only, and not intended to reflect negatively upon you in any way. We wish you the best in future endeavors, and thank you for your past administrative efforts.
