If you are looking for assistance with username changes, do not leave your request here. Instead, please direct your attention to the appropriate pages: Changing username, Usurpations (for already taken names with no edits), Single-user login renames (if you have already begun the SUL process and wish to resolve conflicts). This way, all the bureaucrats will see your request, ensuring faster turnaround time and allowing the advantage of division of labor. Again, please do not make rename requests on my talk page. Thank you.

Data Crystal

Me and my mate were wondering if there is any way of taking over (becoming a bureaucrat) on this wiki: Data crystal , we are asking you because it has been inactive for a long time, and we were hoping to try and take over to help fix it up. I have tried asking people on this wiki but no one is ever on besides me, the only other contributions are random IP addresses that spam the articles (even more then they already are). If you could please reply on my talk page it would be highly appreciated, thanks (This message has been sent to most bureaucrat's). --MỸŠŦЄЯỸЊӘҒҒ (talk) 13:47, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

New York City Meetup Next: Sunday January 18th, Columbia University area Last: 11/01/2008

In the afternoon, we will hold a session dedicated to meta:Wikimedia New York City activities, look at our approval by the Chapters Committee, develop ideas for chapter projects at museums and libraries throughout our region, and hold salon-style group discussions on Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia projects (see the November meeting's minutes and the December mini-meetup's minutes).

We'll make preparations for our exciting museum photography Wikipedia Loves Art! February bonanza (on Flickr, on Facebook) with Shelley from the Brooklyn Museum and Alex from the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

We'll also be collecting folks to join our little Wikipedia Takes the Subway adventure which will be held the day after the meeting.

In the evening, we'll share dinner and chat at a local restaurant, and generally enjoy ourselves and kick back.

You can add or remove your name from the New York City Meetups invite list at Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/Invite list.

Possibility of Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art in Pittsburgh

I'd like to invite you to possibly become our Wikimedia contact for the Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art project at a museum in Pittsburgh. We're in talks with them now, and it's not certain yet, but it would be great for them to know they have a local person to work with, which could really increase the likelihood of this going forward. Please e-mail me soon, because this is starting in February. Thanks!--Pharos (talk) 04:03, 13 January 2009 (UTC)

Mediation Request

Hello, On behalf of the concerned parties in the mediation case of The Man Who Would Be Queen. I know that none of you have to accept our case. I felt that asking all of you would be the best first approach. If you have any interest in mediating for us, or not, please indicate this on the talk page of the mediation case. If you are outright interested, want to mediate this case, and need no other convincing then please indicate that as well and we can get the ball rolling. If not we will not bother you anymore. Thankyou. --Hfarmer (talk) 08:12, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

If I may add to what Hfarmer wrote above, we very much need your help. As a group, we have had an enormous number of disputes on a set of related pages, and parts of this dispute have even put WP in The New York Times. The pages themselves remain an embarrassment to WP, and I hope you can help us solve our long-standing impasse for our own good as well as for WP's.

I can’t imagine what you or any other mediator uses in deciding which cases to take. I can’t say that the specific issues we need help addressing are novel (COI, incivility, etc.); however, I do have some confidence that most people would find the subject matter rather engaging. Such issues include the nature of transsexuality, the controversies between how (some) scientists describes transsexuality versus how (some) transsexual activists describe transsexuality, a book on the topic that immediately became wildly controversial, and the individual activists and scientists involved (some of whom participate here), all of which became quite ugly. The most complete (yet brief) description of where we now stand (in my opinion) is here.

Thank you for your attention, and I hope you can help us to resolve this wide-ranging problem.

"Soapboxing account"

I was wondering what you meant by this in your block of User:Spinnaker gybe. I am not familiar with that as a valid blocking reason and I am unclear as to how this user was being disruptive. I am not going to unblock without consulting with you, but my current feeling is that this user should be unblocked. Please let me know. Andre (talk) 01:38, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

I noticed a few other examples of this block reason in your recent contribution history. It seems that in several instances you have blocked users who have only ever edited talk pages. How this is disruptive I fail to understand, and certainly an indefinite block with no warnings is a gross abuse of admin powers and an example of newbie biting.

Hi

Thanks for restoring the ED talk page history, but unforutnately, you did not restore the right article page history. You (probably accidentally) restored the "Encyclopedia Dramatica" history instead of the "æ" version. The non-æ edits from 2005 and 2006 were simply redirect-related.

Help

I am only asking for help with this one here because you supposedly performed the initial username change, but it doesn't seem to have worked. It was approved and supposedly done here:[1]. His posts kept showing up as DCsniper207, however, so he asked for the same username change at WP:CHU again, but it was denied because now the new name is showing up as taken. So he had to request a third username but only because he thinks that someone changed it back on him:[2]. Any idea why the first move didn't take? Can you help him?--2008Olympian^chitchat 04:47, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Apology

I've posted a general apology in my withdrawal statement at the Oversight election page, but I felt that as a contributor you deserve an individual apology too.

It was not my intention to let the election begin without a statement, but an IT gremlin "ate" my first attempt at posting there some hours before the election was to begin and then unforseeable RL issues prevented me from getting back to it until too late. Thank you for your consideration and sincere regrets for wasting your time. --Dweller (talk) 10:25, 6 February 2009 (UTC)

Hi,

I've written a java program which searches yahoo and then reads the sites returned for college basketball player information.

Anyway, a large number of the sites that are returned are wikipedia pages, but recently, these pages have been returning no information. I'm wondering if wikipedia has blocked my "bot".

Please let me know if there is anything that I need to do like joining the bot group.

Thanks

Fair use rationale for File:Jotto.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Jotto.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stifle (talk) 14:18, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

Please help

Dear Sir or Madam,

Unfortunately, I have made a rather major blunder in an edit that I made to this user's talk page. My edit on the page was a breach of Privacy law, and reflects a serious lack of judgement on my behalf. Because of the urgency of this, I have not been able to contact User:Steve Stefan directly, so at this stage he is unaware of what is going on. Futher, due to the urgency, I have also posted this onto several SysOp and Bureaucrat's talk pages.

The people whose privacy I violated through this edit desire that my edit be removed completely from Wikipedia (including from the history, otherwise I would simply revert the edit myself), which is fair enough, considering what I have posted. Therefore, could you please delete the user's talk page and return the article to the state that it was in prior to my edit. I have a back-up of this page at User:Hunterd/123; the version stored here was a backup of the page as of 15:42 March 20, 2009 (WP time), without the comment that I posted.

If this is not possible, could you please refer me to a person that is capable of doing this.

I would greatly appreciate any help that you can provide.

Kind regards,

The Duke of Andrevan 05:23, 20 March 2009 (UTC) PS: Could you please reply to this message on my own talk page? Thanks.

Hi Andre

I noticed this.

Regardless of the rights or wrongs, I think your tone with a fellow Crat is a little harsh. I'll leave it with you. --Dweller (talk) 09:04, 23 April 2009 (UTC)

Just to say, I didn't take offence at your remark. It just seemed to me that renaming for so flippant a reason was not for the best. The user requested a rename because they've gone from one book to another; they're complicating logs for absolutely no reason. It strikes me that username changes and, indeed, usernames in general are not intended as anything more than a handle to edit with. Either way, I respect your decision and what's done is done. But I certainly didn't intend to "slow down" the process, and I don't think there's any rush. —Anonymous Dissident^Talk 09:55, 23 April 2009 (UTC)

Hi Andre. I assumed your intentions were good - and I still do. Just sometimes things come across harsher in the toneless world of text than can be intended. Nonetheless, I see AD didn't have a problem with it, so there's no issue. I hope you didn't mind my note - I hate discord and am prone to step in and try to ensure there's no conflict. --Dweller (talk) 09:07, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

"Not even slightly promotional" - other than the fact it clearly promotes a type of PDA. But whatever. And "Please assume good faith and give users the benefit of the doubt." is fine if you wish to address me directly. Having used one Canadian-based acronym to edit with a conflict of interest, I wanted to double-check. All I'm saying is it seems a little crude to "argue" in public.

No offence, I was probably feeling oversensitive anyway. Keep up your good work. The Rambling Man (talk) 19:12, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

Andre, it was generally my practice when I disagreed with the decision of another crat to talk to them about it and suggest they reconsider it rather than just overturning them. If we couldn't agree, I'd suggest opening up the difference of opinion to to wider discussion. It's a little impolitic to describe someone's reasoning as "dubious" or "spurious". Just dropping by so pay me whatever you heed you think appropriate, but your approach here does seems uncharacteristically blunt. WJBscribe (talk) 00:33, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

I pop my head in from time to time. An RfA and a thread on the crat noticeboard caught my eye this evening.

I didn't mean to suggest that the rename decisions should be political, just that bureaucrats are a small group and that good working relations are important. TRM seems to have taken your remark on the chin, as apparently has AD in an early thread, but were I still a bureaucrat I think we'd fall out if you just reversed my decisions without talking it over with me.

Renames are a judgment call, and so it will happen that crats validly come to different conclusions on the outcome. For instance, prior to SUL it was clear that there were some crats who would rename users to non-latin names (other than the user's own name) or symbols and others who would reject such requests. I always saw a crat tagging a request as "not done" the equivalent of an admin closing an AfD as "keep" - while not a use of tools, it is the making of a decision the community has appointed that person to make. I don't think you'd reverse a rename you disagreed with without discussion, and I think you should give a little more though to overruling "not done" requests. WJBscribe (talk) 01:00, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

Apparently we see things rather differently then and I confess that I think the way your going about this is problematic. I'm not going to prolong this discussion as I presently don't intend to return to being active but I think you should canvass wider opinion on how casually "not done" requests should be overturned. Incidentally, now that I gather local username hiding is possible, I think that would be a more appropriate way of dealing with users who just want their names to no longer be registered here but aren't planning to continue editing with the same account (as that doesn't leave the public log entry that renaming does). WJBscribe (talk) 15:03, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

ThankSpam

My RfA Thank you for participating in my "RecFA", which passed with a final tally of 153/39/22. There were issues raised regarding my adminship that I intend to cogitate upon, but I am grateful for the very many supportive comments I received and for the efforts of certain editors (Ceoil, Noroton and Lar especially) in responding to some issues. I wish to note how humbled I was when I read Buster7's support comment, although a fair majority gave me great pleasure. I would also note those whose opposes or neutral were based in process concerns and who otherwise commented kindly in regard to my record. I recognise that the process itself was unusual, and the format was generally considered questionable - and I accept that I was mistaken in my perception of how it would be received - but I am particularly grateful for those whose opposes and neutrals were based in perceptions of how I was not performing to the standards expected of an administrator. As much as the support I received, those comments are hopefully going to allow me to be a better contributor to the project. Thank you. Very much.

It's that time again to update membership status with the Nintendo task force, which we try to do every 3-4 months to keep our membership up-to-date.

All participants have been placed on an "Inactive participants" list. To confirm that you're still a member of the Nintendo task force, simply go to Wikipedia:WikiProject Video games/Nintendo#Members and move your name from the "Inactive participants" list to the bottom of the "Active participants" list. If you are no longer an active member in the task force, you may simply remove your name altogether. After 1 month, on October 1, all entries under the "Inactive participants" list will be removed. Hopefully you can stay with us and continue to work on Nintendo-related articles. Regards, MuZemike 17:49, 1 September 2009 (UTC)

Wikipedia Gestapo

I second this...

"...[P]lease stop this arbitary campain to delete articles from wikipedia simply becuase you hav[e]n[']t heard of them."

Your conduct on the Ben Croshaw page, and numerous others, is absolutely unbecoming of a Wikipedia editor.

67.60.35.181 (talk) 03:04, 21 September 2009 (UTC)

I realize that such a role is the very definition of a wikipedia editor, on paper, yet simply looking at that deletion log is evidence in itself that you are anything but impartial. I brought up Mr. Croshaw merely as an example.

67.60.35.181 (talk) 04:47, 23 September 2009 (UTC)

And thus, I would argue that such an attitude, specifically the quote "I don't need to be impartial," is completely the wrong attitude to have for anybody involved in an academic endeavor, which Wikipedia clearly is. To say that an editor is free to fling their biases around unrestrained just brings down the quality and image of the entire encyclopedia as a whole.

Hawthorne (Series)

I am requesting your help with this Wikipedia page, because one editor of the site refuses to allow changes to the page. His personal hatred and bias towards this television program is obvious, and his control of content on the page is unlike anything I have ever come across in all my searches on Wikipedia. I have added relevant information that would be of interest to viewers of the program, such as the day of the week and the time the program is airing, as well as the names of the production companies, only to see the information repeatedly taken down. One other person added a positive review, only to have it blocked. I am hoping that information I have added in the past regarding this television program could be restored, or that I and others be allowed to make changes to the site. One of two areas of contention is that this editor has selectively posted a long list of negative reviews without allowing any balance with positive reviews. Additionally, it would appear on many other television pages that there is no "Critical Reception" section at all, and editing or removing the section on this page is unfairly determined to be "vandalism." The second issue is that this editor has complained of copyright violations with the Plot Summary, even though countless pages for television programs, such as "The Mentalist" (CBS) and "Raising the Bar" (TNT,) and numerous movies pages have taken plot information and cited back to the official sites. Numerous shows with Wikipedia pages use the networks' plot descriptions for the Episode Descriptions, and cite back to them. If there is a standard, then it would apply to all the entertainment sites. If no information or sentences can be cited from official sites or press releases, then at least I and others should be permitted to make the necessary changes to make the page in compliance with Wikipedia rules. Thank you very much for any help with this. - 26 September 2009 (UTC)

Kind request for advice

I created an article that I believed was well-sourced and WP:PROF conditions were met. This article was deleted in an AfD where the closing admin stated it was "too long to consider keep arguments." When I nominated the same for Deletion Review, the decision was endorsed. Neither AfD nor DelRev had a clear consensus, in my opinion, and my view of notability applicability was not really disproved. In addition, article subject's ideology proposes strict regulations for translators, yet at least 3 editors who voted on AfD and the DelRev including the DelRev closing admin are translators (who would not meet article subject's proposed strict regulations for translators). This is a legitimate claim for COI. My question to you is, would I request official mediation in this case? I know Mediation Committee deals with content only, which I would address, but can there be an outcome of restoring a deleted article if I am able to prove my claim? If not, what other avenue of recourse might I pursue, if any? Thank you in advance for your response,Turqoise127 (talk) 21:58, 28 September 2009 (UTC)

Why did you redirect the vetting process to editor review? I can't say I support it myself, but you had absolutely no consensus to do so. ceranthor 23:56, 28 September 2009 (UTC)

Nicklas Nygren article

I'm sorry if I came off a bit brusque earlier. I was quite taken aback by what appeared to me to be such an ill-considered prod. With a single Google-search I was able to come up with a plethora of articles that covered the subject of the article to an extent that I considered perfectly in-keeping with Wikipedia standards, and my reaction to the prod was more a concern that you hadn't even bothered to do a search yourself. This was an assumption I made and as such it only has a basis in my own suspicious nature. I retract my suggestion that the prod was "patently ridiculous," I have stricken it from my earlier comment, and again I apologize if you took offense to this.

I have tried to answer your concerns at the talk page, and I would urge you to reconsider your position. I hope you will evaluate my arguments dispassionately and that you won't hold my earlier outburst against me. Thanks for understanding, -Thibbs (talk) 17:02, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

Mediation in page deletion process

Hi, I would be very grateful if you could take a look at an issue that has arisen with the pages of BeLight Software. An editor has brought the deletion process up but, as far as I can tell, this person is not at all an expert in the Macintosh community and has unwarranted notions about the credibility of sources like MacWorld, MacUser, TopTenReviews, and others. It would be great if you could neutrally look at this and decide whether intervention here is necessary. Thanks a lot!

He also is one account in a larger spam campaign for BeLight Software, see Spam Case. RayJazz21 has been Warned about his COI and yet continues to be excessively active in the discussion and would appear other participants feel they are being badgered by RayJazz21(See edit summary). Would also note there has been an instance of editing the content of others comments during the debate, which is wholey inapropriate. Thanks for your time.--Hu12 (talk) 22:00, 15 December 2009 (UTC)

• This is a mediation request. Yes, of course I am active in the discussion. I have not edited the content of others' comments. I did revert one comment that included false information and left an explanation. You yourself changed the phrasing after I pointed this out. RayJazz21 (talk) 10:46, 21 December 2009 (UTC)

Re: RayJazz21's comment, "You yourself changed the phrasing after I pointed this out."

The phrasing changed from

"Article was created by an [[WP:SPA]] account([[User:RayJazz21]])"

to

"Multiple articles created by an [[WP:SPA]] account([[User:RayJazz21]])"

So it became more critical of RayJazz21, not less as he or she implies. See diff comparing the page before RayJazz21's reversion to the current page. --Colfer2 (talk) 14:31, 21 December 2009 (UTC)

Constant harassment against me by a small group of editors

Can you please do something about this? There are a small group of editors that keep harassing me by constantly insulting me and then requesting that I be banned. It has gotten well out of hand and I feel that the bureaucrats as a whole need to step and tell them to stop it. Here is an attempt by them to get me banned Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#User:Wiki Greek Basketball. I am 100% confident that there must be some kind of site policy that is against trying to wrongly get people banned and doing it simply out of some sort of hatred or personal issues. I don't know what exactly to do about this other than to report it directly to a general group of people. That is why I am telling you and all the others directly about it. Because reporting it on the noticeboard is not working and does not work. As long as only a small group of people are involved they are able to harass you and get away with it. Please kindly tell these editors to stop harassing me and to not bring any false abuse reports against me again and please tell them to not attempt to wrongly ban me again. I thank you very, very much if you will help me with this. Thank you sincerely for any help as it will be greatly appreciated.Wiki Greek Basketball (talk) 09:46, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

You are the next bureacrat in alphabetical order. Mr. Scribe vouched for an administrator candidate who had a previous secret username by reviewing the edits then Mr. Scribe also closed the RFA as pass. Mr. Scribe was acting as an advocate in the edit review then acting on the RFA, which is a conflict of interest. This only harms the new administrator by robbing him/her of legitimacy.

Since the RFA only closed within the past 24 hours, do something positive! Review the RFA and confirm that you would have passed it, too. Otherwise, a cloud may permanently cover that new admin's head. If you do it, then the new admin can happily be respected by all!

The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 13 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:

NPOV needed

Hi I am editing on what is now Tree shaping article. I am one of the practitioners (Pooktre) mentioned in the article. Understanding that there was a potential for a COI I have always endeavoured to edit from a NPOV. My only agenda if there is one is not to have our work branded with someone else's methods of shaping trees.(Arborsculpture which has a method linked to it.)

This article had been settle down since may 2009 until 19th January 2010. When editor 208.59.93.238 come and made a minor change. I undid the changes and stated why on the talk page. This editer overreacted generally threw different accusations around while also claiming I had a COI. I replied to the COI and modified the changed sentence.

The editor 208.59.93.238 Come in change the sentence back apologised to me, while also accusing me of not following Wikipedia policies and that I should back off.

After 208.59.93.238 stating about the COI, the editer Slowart (Created the word Arborsculpture) basically agreed with 208.59.93.238 about the COI with added emphasis. Then commented "Hopefully someone with a Wikipedia:NPOV will rethink and rewrite the whole page."

I replied to both and change the sentence while giving my reasons.

Some back history This page originally was called Aborsculpture, but was changed (by other editors) to Tree shaping. link Part of the change was adding Pooktre to the newly named page. Pooktre had been an AFD, on the AFD I made my case for Pooktre once. One of the editors relpied why it was not suitable, I relised they were right that a this time Pooktre doesn't meet the criteria of being article on wikipedia. So I asked a speedy delete, during that process the other editors came to consensus that Pooktre could be merged with Arborsculputre creating a new article Tree shaping. The wording was chosen as it is neutral, generic and descriptive. From the time the article was changed Slowart (is Reames) protested and had been asked by various editors involved in the name change, and third opinion try and work with others or don't edit (my approximation of what was said).

After Slowart comment, about rewite the editor 208.59.93.238 Come in added Conflict of Interest Tag, put up a COI on the COI/noticeboard I belive they are claiming COI to force me to not contribute, and so that they don't feel they have to justify or discuss the changes to the article. Made a range of changes that changed the dynamics of the article, including putting the word Arborsculpture in the lead paragraph, giving it undue weight.

At some point during this process I contacted three different editors who were involved in the changeover or the third opinion, including one who had criticised me. I just asked for them to come and give their opinion, I didn't lay out any of the issues.

I replied that I didn't see that I had a conflict of interest. Gave some examples of my Editing style. Then went on read COI. I then comment that "now the page has been change from Arborscuplture to a neutral, generic, and descriptive name we now may come into COI." I also added that keeping this in mind and that I'd always endeavoured to work with other editors that I would continue to edit.

I started a new section Reaching a Consensus. Laid out how I was planning to change the edits and why I did so. I didn't change all the changes in one go. (I also tried to modify instead of undo) At this stage there was only 208.59.93.238. after my first changes and my comments to 208.59.93.238. A new editor 96.233.40.199 came in and stated I had a COI and didn't discuss any changes and changed things back to 208.59.93.238 version. I have modify some of the changes, listed that ones that are not that big a deal. Gave reasons for my changes asked them not to revert and to discuss it on the talk page.

What I need is some help. Am I going through the right process to reach a consensus. With the content that I am changing is it improving the article page? If not how could I change it so that it is? Will you please read the history, check some of my earlier edits and the edits that I did on related articles. I will certainly appreciate any help you will offer.
