Instructions
[edit]Please feel free to report incidents, a complaint about an administrator, or anything you want administrators to be aware of.
Please be aware that these pages aren't the place to bring disputes over content or requests for a mediation between another editor and you — we aren't referees. You are better to talk with that editor by mail or on talk, or ask other editors their opinion on Village pump.
The chief purpose of this page is to allow admins to ask each other for help and/or information, to communicate ideas, and for admin talk to happen.
However, any user of Wikiquote may post here. Admins are not a club of elites, but normal editors with some additional technical abilities. Anyone is free to use it to talk to admins as a group. Please feel free to leave a message.
If you do, please sign and date all contributions, using the Wikiquote special form "~~~~", which translates into a signature and a time stamp automatically.
To request special assistance from an administrator, like deletion, use appropriate pages or tags.
To request assistance from a specific administrator, see [[User talk:Whoever]].
If there is another page which is a more natural location for the discussion of a particular point, please start the discussion there, and only put a short note of the issue, and a link to the relevant location, on this page. Put another way, to the extent possible, discussions are better off held somewhere else, and announced here. This will avoid spreading discussion of one topic over several pages (thereby making them harder to follow), and also reduce the rate of changes to this page.
Pages needing admin intervention:
- Wikiquote:Protected titles
- Wikiquote:AutoWikiBrowser/CheckPage
- MediaWiki:Bad image list
- MediaWiki:Sitenotice
- MediaWiki:Sitenotice id when you update MediaWiki:Sitenotice, id num needs also to be incrementally grown
- MediaWiki:Spam-blacklist For global blacklisting, go to m:Talk:Spam blacklist instead.
- MediaWiki:Titleblacklist (upper compatible w/ MediaWiki:Usernameblacklist)

[edit]User:トゥドゥック市 1234541, User:トゥドゥック市 12566, and User:トゥドゥック市 800900 (user page already blanked) are making Non-English off-topic user pages that will not be an ENWQ article draft.

Update request for Wikiquote:Administrators
[edit]Hello, user:Pmlineditor has been removed from the admin team per m:AAR, and user:Ferien has already resigned. Please update the admin list accordingly. MathXplore (talk) 09:13, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
Done. Good eye, thanks. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 23:36, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
Special:Contributions/Aphaia (admin inactivity concern)
[edit]This administrator has been missing for 2 years. Should we alert possible removal per m:AAR? MathXplore (talk) 09:15, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
- Yes. If you don't want to, then ping me to do it. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 23:37, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Koavf: I think a current active admin should handle this case. MathXplore (talk) 06:04, 28 August 2024 (UTC)
Update request for former admin/steward userpage
[edit]special:permalink/2659803 says that user:Pmlineditor is an admin/steward, but this should be updated per rights removal. Please consider the update of this page (for example, add "former" before the roles). Please also remove admin userbox from the userpage. Thank you very much for your attention. MathXplore (talk) 09:19, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
Done It's important to make sure that other users aren't confused about who is an admin. Thanks. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 23:40, 25 August 2024 (UTC)

Done —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 23:41, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
