Re: dallas cowboys wiki done
Hi Flaminglawyer,

When I put my username on the Sports Drive list, I only wanted to contribute there as a regualr user, not a sysop. I'm busy trying to adopt another wiki, so could you please take my sysop powers away at the Dallas Cowboys Wiki.

Thanks,

Sports drive issues
Hi, Flaminglawyer - I've been noticing the edits you've been making on the sports drive, and the talk pages of users signing up. I'm really glad you have this much enthusiasm and desire to help out, and I wanted to mention that the Sports staff is more than ready and willing to help you out on your Memphis Tigers wiki.

But I saw the message you left on Spongebobrocks talk page in response to his question on my own talk page, and that's not helpful. If somebody leaves a message for me, then I should be the one who responds. Likewise the users you've been responding to the requests of on the Sports drive - we have a team of people working on getting those wikis up to the new standards we're setting on Sports, and we respond to requests when those wikis are ready.

When you're highlighting dead wikis (wikis that have had no activity for over three months) on the Sports Drive page or letting people know their requests are ready, it gets in the way of Sports workers who are trying to get their jobs done. I'd appreciate it if you could ease off on keeping track of who's requesting what, and focus more on the projects you requested yourself. Thanks. Shawn ( talk ) 23:40, 9 February 2009 (UTC)


 * I still don't completely understand the concept of people getting paid to do this stuff (I'm from en:wp, where volunteerism is encouraged). I'll just stick myself back in my little niche, on content wikis. Sorry for any issues, I'll try not to let it happen again. flaminglawyer 02:53, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
