File:Kihikihi statue small.jpg

Hello,

It looks like a small thumbnail he got from the Internet. In any case, it is more useful to upload the original image, and it clears any copyright doubt. I removed the warning. Yann (talk) 08:42, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Picture of the Year 2013 R1 Announcement

Terriffic Dunker Guy on Wikipedia should not be blocked

The blocking of the user Terriffic Dunker Guy on Wikipedia was largely a mistake. There are some users who is favoring the user to be unblocked as the user continues to use proper spelling and prevent errors in parts of its article including a section or two. If there is one error and another article, I will fix it if a user notify me. Another user can correct an error I made. Also it continues to read more articles and some pages outside Wikipedia. I had already made discussions and explanations on my talk page. As I was on my break, the blocking of Terriffic Dunker Guy on Wikipedia was accidental.

After I return, I may get some more protection from another user for making me continuing to following the guidelines, which is pleasing. Also when I am on an editing break, that is about two or three weeks, sometimes one that is a vacation, I should get some more protection for the same thing of following the guidelines as well as correct and proper spelling and keeping perfect sentence for an addition or an update of one article. Also I should hav put a template named Wikibreak on my user page. As I do not put the Unblock template in my talk page as some users are going to reject it, I put it in other pages for a request for a user to be unblocked as it continues to follow the guidelines and spelling rules and also fixes it where needed, even my other users. I continue to protect edits from vandalism, though I see no vandalism in other articles which is good. Some users also wants the user unblocked as I am capable of doing good spelling and grammar on Wikipedia and enlarge articles in some parts.

I will not be using any puppet, I want to log in as the same user. On my talk page at Wikipedia. I will not put an unblock template on my talk page for requesting a block if some tries to deny a request or drop an unblock request.

A request for Terriffic Dunker Guy to become an administrator

I hav made a request for an application to become an administrator on Wikipedia and on Commons, I may be also become administrator on Wiktionary. Article reads alongside some edits but in good English language spelling, included, some of my edits that I made at Google Maps (outside Wikimedia as well as Open Street Map) as I am a user there but recently less active than I was a few years ago. My planned application to become and administration is kept. When it is approved, notify me if I become a first level administrator on Wikipedia, but not yet for Commons and Wiktionary. If not two or three users planning for a user with good knowledge to become an administrator but a few more to approve my application for becoming a first-level administrator.

As I am applying for it not at the Administrator page or a page section which is difficult, I'll hav to ask for an application.

Also I continue to do an addition of one category where available, photo enlargement and a good translation of a sentence in articles related to astronomy. As Mars is at the opposition portion, there should be Mars Fest where a large telescope takes a photo of the planet with details of features of up to 250 to 200 km wide.
