YPPedia talk:Requests for adminship/Fannon

From YPPedia

Why does this not update on the page itself? Maybe I shouldn't be admin after all... =P --Fannon 20:35, 6 March 2006 (PST)

Uh it's a weird complicated wiki thing.  :) Basically since it uses an included page (I'm guessing you mean the requests for admin page), you need to wait for your cache to update or you need to purge it manually. There's actually a little link at the bottom of the candidacies that says Purge this page (uses the link http://yppedia.puzzlepirates.com/index.php?title=YPPedia:Requests_for_adminship&action=purge). Anyhow, it's not knowledge that's normally needed (it took the rest of us who were the starter admins a while to realize what the heck this purge stuff is too), but now you know too. --Guppymomma 20:38, 6 March 2006 (PST)
Yeah, it updated right after I said this, and you posted right as I was posting to ignore me. Yay. --Fannon 20:40, 6 March 2006 (PST)

So it's not been 7 days....

But it's pretty obvious this nomination is going to go through. Any objections to just going ahead and making Fannon admin? I'm also glad to see that this is one of the first RfA's where a lot of people have voted. Yay for more wiki participation! --Guppymomma 15:08, 7 March 2006 (PST)

I had been thinking about that earlier. It seems kinda silly to make a nominee wait when there's overwhelming support. --Thunderbird 16:57, 7 March 2006 (PST)
That's all the encouragement I need. Anyone complaining about this may blame me, but as a fish I'm slimey so it just rolls off. --Guppymomma 17:06, 7 March 2006 (PST)
