- Hi Oldvermontcheese - I will take a look at your draft to see if it's ready to resubmit to AfC. Cheers. CookieMonster755 (talk) 23:40, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks for asking for review Oldvermontcheese. However, your article still does not seem ready to submit to AfC. The History of the business section needs clean-up. I personally think it's off topic of the article, talking too much about a different company or former company. I also don't think that the Geology section is that relevant to the company. Start by cleaning those up first, and staying on topic. If you have any other questions or comments, please feel free to message me on my talk page. Cheers. CookieMonster755 (talk) 23:49, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
Good morning -- thanks for the feedback. I revised the business section and would appreciate your input. The information about the Geology is essential to understand the history of these caves over 150 years and the most recent changes for the business. Your thoughts? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Oldvermontcheese (talk • contribs) 12:32, 19 May 2015 (UTC) --Oldvermontcheese (talk) 14:27, 19 May 2015 (UTC)oldvermontcheese
Good morning CookieMonster755 Did you have an opportunity to consider my reply and review most recent revisions? I value your input and what to get this right. Thanks Oldvermontcheese (talk) 16:10, 28 May 2015 (UTC)
- Oldvermontcheese — Your draft is currently submitted to the AfC team. An editor will review your draft to see if your revisions will help it be submitted into the main space or not. If declined, they will provide additional feedback as well as like I did. I hope you continue to work with the AfC process. Cheers. CookieMonster755 (talk) 16:36, 28 May 2015 (UTC)
Good evening CookieMonster755 Thank you for re-submitting the draft for me. I have been traveling and did not see your reply until today. I appreciate the time and consideration. Oldvermontcheese (talk) 23:31, 9 June 2015 (UTC)
- You're welcome Oldvermontcheese. CookieMonster755 (talk) 02:12, 11 June 2015 (UTC)
Hi CookieMonster Again, thanks for re-submitting my draft for review and approval. I have not heard anything since you sent it on May 28. I realize how long the process may take, but wondered if you know the status? Thanks again... I look forward to a positive ending. Oldvermontcheese (talk) 16:43, 18 June 2015 (UTC)
- Oldvermontcheese, your draft is pending in our AfC "hotline", and shall be reviewed within c. 3 weeks, due to the AfC process being highly backlogged. If you have any more questions, please feel free to reply. CookieMonster755 (talk) 19:56, 18 June 2015 (UTC)
A barnstar for you!

Wikipedia's Most Improved Editor! |
The title is self explanatory but I guess the pictures isn't...he is Kevin Love who was "NBA's Most Improved Player" few years back and I like that dude ;) So, you as far as I see, you didn't have one of the best starts here but you have come very far CookieMonster755. I look at you and see some reflection of me in 2012. You have improved many folds in such less time. You are doing a fascinating job and it is always encouraging to see editors improvising and taking active part in various fields of the project. Keep up the nice work and thanks for your contributions to the site! :) — Yash! (Y) 12:34, 25 May 2015 (UTC) |

- @Yash!: I really want to take the time to thank you for recognizing me with my tasty edits. The title is wonderful and is truthful. You're very right: Thanks for looking into my history edits ;) I did not start out well. I had been making disruptive articles and edits, and uploading copyright violations. I got blocked for legal threats. It was not a good start. I realized my behavior was not acceptable, so I decided to change. I have made over 30 tasty Wikipedia articles, I have pending changes and rollback rights, and I am a valued member at Articles for creation. I have been trying to improve my reputation here on Wikipedia, and hope to further do so. I am here to help other community editors, and new editors as well. It's a honor to be awarded from an editor like you; Thank-you
I hope we work together some day and talk once again on talk pages. Wikipedia values you and I and every member who makes tasty contributions. Keep up your tasty edits as well. Cheers, and Sincerely Yours, CookieMonster755 (talk) 00:56, 26 May 2015 (UTC)

Hello, CookieMonster755. You're invited to join WikiProject Today's articles for improvement. Feel free to nominate an article for improvement at the project's Nominated articles page. Also feel free to contribute to !voting for new weekly selections at the project's talk page. If interested in joining, please add your name to the list of members. --Bananasoldier (talk) 01:45, 4 June 2015 (UTC) |

Odd
I'm not sure if you are trolling or being serious here. Either way, it doesn't reflect well on you. - Sitush (talk) 03:49, 4 June 2015 (UTC)
- Sitush - What? Trolling? I really do miss him. He was a great friend of mine, a true person in the community that I was inspired by. I am not sure if your trolling or being serious, but it does not reflect good on you either. I don't want to cause any edit wars or uncivil communication, please see my "when editing gets hot" section on my userpage. Please remain calm before judging me. I was really missing a great person on the Wiki community, but assuming a false statement ain't gonna help. Remain civil my fellow Wikipedian ;) Cheers. CookieMonster755 (talk) 04:10, 4 June 2015 (UTC)
- I am being entirely civil, so please do not raise that trope. OZ and their other accounts have been incredibly disruptive, especially in their pushing of a Hindutva point of view, and I can guarantee you that not all of their socks have been found - in fact, there is a live account right now that almost certainly is them. How you can wish for the return of someone who has caused so many problems since at least 2008 is beyond comprehension. It stretches AGF way beyond the bounds of credulity. Perhaps your misunderstanding derives from not being terribly involved with matters Indian and Pakistani, where much of the damage has been done. - Sitush (talk) 04:17, 4 June 2015 (UTC)
- Sitush - I understand your concerns. I will not raise any trope, because I want to avoid any uncivil communication. Yes, OccultZone may have made some mistakes in edit waring, but he is a positive and civil editor, at least to my understanding. I am a Christian, and I can forgive people. I can forgive OccultZone for the mistakes he has made. We are Wiki friends
I have made mistakes as well, but I asked the lord Jesus Christ for forgiveness, and guess what? I am a great editor here on Wiki, and a great person off Wiki. I may misunderstand what he may have done, but I know anyone can be forgiven. We need to be civil to editors like my friend OccultZone. I hope he does come back with a solid attitude like before, and a great friend. My response to you may not be the response you were expecting, but lets keep our Wiki communication with civil and calm explanations, shall we? Cheers my Wikipedian! ;) CookieMonster755 (talk) 04:25, 4 June 2015 (UTC)
- Oh, they will be back but not as OccultZone or any of their other past accounts. They will just sock again. There is no way "indefinite" means anything other than "infinite" in the case of that particular siteban. - Sitush (talk) 04:28, 4 June 2015 (UTC)
- Sitush - Sock again? But I want OccultZone to be OccultZone, but evade bans is not okay. I will be praying for OccultZone that he follows the guidelines of the commission who made the decision to ban him. Just keep me up to date, will ya? Thanks my Wiki fellow.

It turns out that OZ has for years operated an extensive sock-farm of sock-puppets who were engaged in long-term disruption, abuse and POV pushing. By the way: on top of you giving OZ a barnstar, you attempting to contact off-wiki [1] the admin who blocked OZ after the Arbcom case does look like trolling. If you've got something to say regarding Wikipedia matters, say it here, on-wiki. E-mail communications should be reserved for rare occasions where some particularly sensitive information is involved (e.g. some issues regarding privacy, real-world identity of specific users, etc). Nsk92 (talk) 08:20, 4 June 2015 (UTC)
- The Definition of trolling: make a deliberately offensive or provocative online posting with the aim of upsetting someone or eliciting an angry response from them. - Beg my Pardon o Sir Nsk92, please understand me: I don't want to cause drama at all. I am not trolling and I am not trying to troll. All I am saying is that I am friends with OccultZone for all the good things he has done for the community, and the mistakes he has made can be forgiven if he asks for it. Rschen7754, believe me, I don't want anyone to deceive the community, but I do want to forgive people, because I know my Lord and savoir word forgive. Are you a Christian? :) Anyway everybody, I am trying to be as civil and as polite as I can to you administrators, but I did not mean to contact people through Wikipedia's email system. I thought that was on wiki. Guess not. Thanks for my lesson, I feel stupid now ;P I just thought it was appropriate not to ask why he was blocked on his on talk page. Hopefully we can all work things out and be good Wiki buddies, right? Cheers my fellow Wikipedians. Lets fix the communities trust with the forgiveness of my Lord Jesus Christ, Hallelujah! CookieMonster755 (talk) 22:54, 4 June 2015 (UTC)
- Just a thought - while I am a Christian (and I do display it on my userpage) I can count on one hand how many times I have brought that up onwiki in the last 10 years. Sadly, I've seen too many "Christians" get blocked for copyvios or edit warring or stuff like that. I prefer to live my faith out in the way I act (and I'll admit that yes, sometimes I overreact or react too strongly). I hope to show integrity in whatever I do on this site–and sometimes that means saying the hard truth that the other person does not want to hear. --Rschen7754 05:32, 5 June 2015 (UTC)
- Rschen7754, Thanks for your message. Well, hopefully the 'Christians' who have been blocked will turn away from breaking rules and come to full forgiveness and to restore their reputation on Wikipedia by healing relationships with Wikipedia admins. Jesus is good all the time, Hallelujah! Let's just fix the trust of the community. Yea Rschen7754, I am a Christian, and as a Christian we all need to follow rules and guidelines. As a user of this site, I need to agree to all terms and guidelines, same with anyone else who uses the website. Saying your Christian is not an excuse for doing bad things I agree, but they can ask for forgiveness if they truly want forgiveness. We don't know if they are truly asking for forgiveness, only the blood of Jesus Christ can tell. We just got to trust on the lord that we can unblock users, or take whatever action is necessary according to Wikipedia guidelines. Keep up the good work, Jesus bless ya, Cheers.

Spencer Capital Holdings Page Comments question
Hi!
I have a few questions about your edits. You said that this page needs an introduction. It is just a basic company page, so what would the introduction entail? There is already a company page "Spencer Re" that this page will be linked to. The subsections are part of the same holdings company.
Let me know your thoughts! Thanks :)
Alimac1026 (talk) 15:13, 8 June 2015 (UTC)
- Hi Alimac1026! Thank you for posting on my talk page for getting help! However, I need to get some questions cleared up about your draft Spencer Capital Holdings. You have a draft about it here (which I declined), and you also have your Spencer Capital Holdings content on your userpage. I was wondering which one is your main draft? We don't have 2 drafts of the same subject. If you are going to submit a draft for articles for creation, it will be declined because you have another duplicate draft with the same content. Please pick a main draft, and submit the one you don't want for deletion. One draft for the article you want to publish makes it much easier. After we get these comments resolved, I will be happy to continue to work with you. Thank you for your inquire today. Cheers! CookieMonster755 (talk) 16:54, 8 June 2015 (UTC)

RfA Consideration
Hi CookieMonster755. I saw you had listed yourself as those who would consider filing an RFA for someone. As such, I would appreciate your review, comments and if it is merited your RFA for me. Admittedly I'm not much for new content creation, at least on a large scale...mainly because it reminds me too much of research papers in college. I find myself more content with helping new users, fighting vandalism, making smaller article contributions that are significant in their own way, recently helping with creating new user accounts, and processing files for upload. As such, I look forward to what you can offer me and I thank you for your time and consideration! RegistryKey(RegEdit) 01:30, 15 June 2015 (UTC)
- RegistryKey, thank you so much for your message! I would love to nominate you for adminship! I have set up a page (User:CookieMonster755/RfA/RegistryKey) to review to see if I want to nominate you for the RfA process. Once the review is complete and I want to nominate you, I will set up a RfA nomination for you. I am excited to see you possibly becoming a future admin! This process will take at least 7 days at the most. Cheers! CookieMonster755 (talk) 01:46, 15 June 2015 (UTC)
- Hello RegistryKey, I am sorry to inform you: your RfA nomination has been
Declined. Please see my comments here. If you have questions, please feel free to contact me. Thanks. CookieMonster755 (talk) 03:07, 15 June 2015 (UTC)

WikiProject X Newsletter • Issue 4
Hello friends! We have been hard at work these past two months. For this report:
For the first time, we are happy to bring you an exhaustive, comprehensive WikiProject Directory. This directory endeavors to list every single WikiProject on the English Wikipedia, including those that don't participate in article assessment. In constructing the broadest possible definition, we have come up with a list of approximately 2,600 WikiProjects. The directory tracks activity statistics on the WikiProject's pages, and, for where it's available, statistics on the number of articles tracked by the WikiProject and the number of editors active on those articles. Complementing the directory are description pages for each project, listing usernames of people active on the WikiProject pages and the articles in the WikiProject's scope. This will help Wikipedians interested in a subject find each other, whether to seek feedback on an article or to revive an old project. (There is an opt-out option.) We have also come up with listings of related WikiProjects, listing the ten most relevant WikiProjects based on what articles they have in common. We would like to promote WikiProjects as interconnected systems, rather than isolated silos.
A tremendous amount of work went into preparing this directory. WikiProjects do not consistently categorize their pages, meaning we had to develop our own index to match WikiProjects with the articles in their scope. We also had to make some adjustments to how WikiProjects were categorized; indeed, I personally have racked up a few hundred edits re-categorizing WikiProjects. There remains more work to be done to make the WikiProject directory truly useful. In the meantime, take a look and feel free to leave feedback at the WikiProject X talk page.
What have we been working on?
- A new design template—This has been in the works for a while, of course. But our goal is to design something that is useful and cleanly presented on all browsers and at all screen resolutions while working within the confines of what MediaWiki has to offer. Additionally, we are working on designs for the sub-components featured on the main project page.
- A new WikiProject talk page banner in Lua—Work has begun on implementing the WikiProject banner in Lua. The goal is to create a banner template that can be usable by any WikiProject in lieu of having its own template. Work has slowed down for now to focus on higher priority items, but we are interested in your thoughts on how we could go about creating a more useful project banner. We have a draft module on Test Wikipedia, with a demonstration.
- New discussion reports—We have over 4.8 million articles on the English Wikipedia, and almost as many talk pages as well. But what happens when someone posts on a talk page? What if no one is watching that talk page? We are currently testing out a system for an automatically-updating new discussions list, like RFC for WikiProjects. We currently have five test pages up for the WikiProjects on cannabis, cognitive science, evolutionary biology, and Ghana.
- SuggestBot for WikiProjects—We have asked the maintainer of SuggestBot to make some minor adjustments to SuggestBot that will allow it to post regular reports to those WikiProjects that ask for them. Stay tuned!
- Semi-automated article assessment—Using the new revision scoring service and another system currently under development, WikiProjects will be getting a new tool to facilitate the article assessment process by providing article quality/importance predictions for articles yet to be assessed. Aside from helping WikiProjects get through their backlogs, the goal is to help WikiProjects with collecting metrics and triaging their work. Semi-automation of this process will help achieve consistent results and keep the process running smoothly, as automation does on other parts of Wikipedia.
Want us to work on any other tools? Interested in volunteering? Leave a note on our talk page.
The database report which lists WikiProjects according to the number of watchers (i.e., people that have the project on their watchlist), is back! The report stopped being updated a year ago, following the deactivation of the Toolserver, but a replacement report has been generated.
C.J. Pearson
Hi, I had some free time today and went about finding more/better references for your article. I removed the New York Times ref because it wasn't about Pearson at all. I was unable to find the names of Pearson's parents, though USA Today did tell me his father's profession. My only question is why you mentioned "a series of YouTube videos"? It seems that only the February video went viral and garnered all that media attention. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 19:22, 18 June 2015 (UTC)
- Yoninah, thanks for your help. The reason why I said series of videos, is because he has had attention for more than one video, but I can fix that sentence if you want me too. CookieMonster755 (talk) 19:52, 18 June 2015 (UTC)
- I think you should add a line about the other videos he has posted on his channel (or, without listing them, just mentioning that he has posted other videos). Yoninah (talk) 19:56, 18 June 2015 (UTC)
- Yoninah, I will mention that he has posted other videos as well without listing them. CookieMonster755 (talk) 19:58, 18 June 2015 (UTC)
