If you received a vandalism warning from me and don't know why, you are probably browsing with an IP address used by many different people. You should not be concerned, as the warning was probably not meant for you. If you are blocked and feel you should not be, you are welcome to put {{unblock|Reason why you should be unblocked}} on your talk page.

Maccast Deletion Review[edit]An editor has asked for a deletion review of The_Maccast. Since you closed the deletion discussion for this article or speedy-deleted it, you might want to participate in the deletion review. Edits at Uncle Ben's[edit]Dear Alphachimp: I have noticed you have expereince in editing / updating http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncle_Ben's Would you consider assisting in making corrections to the content so that it is accurate. Here is the history and evidence to support the history: www.huzenlaub.com and http://huzenlaubunclebens.blogspot.com/ and http://huzenlaubinthenews.blogspot.com/ JIm Shapiro[edit]Hi: I am new to Wikipedia. My username is ArieltheUnicorn. I was utterly'dismayed'''''''at reading the messages about the article on Jim Shapiro. In fact, I used the link and read the article for myself to seee what all the fuss was about. My Dad always taught me to make up my own mind on things like this!! ;0) I AGREE COMPLETELY with the Administrators that the article should have been deleted IMMEDIATLEY!!!!! There was NOTHING positive in the article AT ALL!!! :( :( :( JIm Shapiro is apparently a complete SNAKE he is the type of attorney that all the jokes were made up about! You know, the ones that give the rest the bad reputation! Deletion of The Maccast entry[edit]Hi, On August 26th, 2007 I posted the following in your talkback and I have not received a response yet. Can you please upate me on this request? Thank you.
Sorry for the (apparently) invalid WP:AIV report. At the time, from what I understood, personal attacks in all forms are unacceptable. I was patrolling the sandbox, and found this, that looked like an attack. I warned, then he/she added this. I gave a final warning, and then the user added [1]. I thought that it was unacceptable for anyone to add something like " ALL OF THE WIKIPEDIA MODERATORS AND ADMINISTRATERS LOVE SUCKING COCK", "Wikipedier is a pussy", etc. I guess those kind of attacks don't warrent a block for WP:NPA, and I'll ignore such things in the future. Again, sorry for the invalid report.--U.S.A.U.S.A.U.S.A. 21:39, 16 November 2007 (UTC) Signpost updated for January 14th, 2008.[edit]

Me and the other participants at WT:NYCPT have worked on creating articles for Staten Island Railway stations and have also modified {{Infobox NYCS}} for SIR article use. But we need to find the opening dates for the SIR articles. But we need to find the opening dates for the stations, and surprisingly; nycsubway.org and stationreporter.net have them. So let me know if you come across any sources that can provide this. I'll continue adding the infoboxes to the stations. Thanks. Other than that, what's going on? I haven't seen you around the project for a long time. Knowing you're an admin an all, I really do hope you still do participate at the project. Marc Shepherd has also returned and we've also been getting a substantial amount of help from Larry V and NE2. So things at the project are okay, and I hope you're good too. So get back to me when you can, and enjoy your wikibreak. —Imdanumber1 (talk • contribs • email) 20:11, 2 March 2008 (UTC) Signpost updated for March 3rd, 2008.[edit]

Your name popped up while browsing which surprised me as I thought you had vanished sometime last year, nice to see you. As it turns out it takes fourteen months from that comment for me to become one and due to you helping me out a fair bit way back when this means you are indirectly responsible for the hundreds of complaints on my talk page from creators of articles I have deleted.

Weird HelperBot behavior[edit]I dunno how often you monitor the AIV Helperbot talk pages, but there have been a couple of weird report deletions by Helperbot2 recently (User talk:HBC AIV helperbot2#Odd report removal). I am guessing there is a race condition where helperbot reads the page, as user submits a report, then helperbot writes the page back? If so, you probably already thought of this, but I suppose the bot (or, sigh, another bot) could detect this kind of condition by looking at the helperbot edit summary and if there were modifications that did not match the edit summary, restoring those? I dunno, just thinking out loud. Or maybe this race condition happens so rarely that it doesn't matter :) --Jaysweet (talk) 15:11, 19 March 2008 (UTC) Signpost updated for March 13th and 17th, 2008.[edit]

Deletions[edit]This delete (which you beat me to by just a couple seconds) probably should have been as "attack page" or some such, rather than "patent nonsense" (which it wasn't).

Request for Reconsideration of Deletion / Canasta[edit]I would like to suggest that the deletion of the page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canasta_(band) be reconsidered. Below is information supporting the criteria for notability (music) as well as additional supporting documentation. 1. Has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent from the musician or ensemble itself and reliable.[note 1] This criterion includes published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles, books, magazine articles, online versions of print media, and television documentaries... http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=10:kcfwxz95ldse 7. Has become the most prominent representative of a notable style or of the local scene of a city; note that the subject must still meet all ordinary Wikipedia standards, including verifiability. From the above Sun-Times article, by Jim Derogatis... "Though its popularity can be traced to the indie duo Cardinal in the early ’90s, the ork- (short for “orchestral-”) pop genre has produced some of the best bands in the Chicago underground in the last decade, starting with Yum-Yum and continuing with the Scotland Yard Gospel Choir, the 1900’s and Head of Femur. Canasta certainly deserves a place on this list..." 10. Has performed music for a work of media that is notable, e.g. a theme for a network television show, performance in a television show or notable film, inclusion on a compilation album, etc. (But if this is the only claim, it is probably more appropriate to have a mention in the main article and redirect to that article.) A link to the trailer for Diminished Capacity (IFC Films), starring Matthew Broderick and Alan Alda, which features Canasta's "Slow Down Chicago" (it comes in about halfway through)... http://ifcfilms.com/viewFilm.htm?filmId=776
Other information of note... Canasta was involved in Barack Obama's online campaign: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=E6CD48AEE4C3053E And was invited to join Barack Obama at Chicago’s gorgeous Riviera Theatre (capacity: 2500), as part of a fundraiser for his Democratic Primary bid: http://www.canastamusic.com/images/photoalbum/ChangeRocksDecember7,2007/photo/0 http://www.canastamusic.com//shows/flyers/2007-12-07-ObamaPoster2.jpg Several television commercials that made use of our music, including Mission Federal Credit Unions and Oklahoma City Community College, all viewable here... http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=8532266C07419B76

legend you are — Preceding unsigned comment added by Trotter23 (talk • contribs) 10:39, 9 March 2012 (UTC) Article in need of improvement[edit]A substantial part of the article, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory_of_impetus concerns a "tunnel experiment," as proposed by Galileo in his Dialogo. The article would clearly benefit by having it pointed out that, although it could be, the experiment has as yet not been performed. In its original form the idea is to have a tunnel dug through the Earth so that a test object ("cannonball") can be dropped into it. This is, of course, impossible. But the same physical principles would be revealed by using laboratory-sized massive bodies instead. The experiment could be performed in an Earth-based laboratory or in an orbiting satellite. Articles that discuss these possibilities and present further reasons for doing the experiment can be found at: http://astroreview.com/issue/2012/article/interior-solution-gravity-experiment and http://astroreview.com/issue/2012/article/the-direction-of-gravity I have no experience contributing to Wiki, but feel this issue is important enough to learn how to do so, if this message is not sufficient to make it happen.

Travel Channel Producer Seeking info on the Source of the photo of Austen Leslie[edit]Hi Jason! My name is Suzy Beck, I'm a producer for a show called Food Paradise that airs on the Travel Channel. I'm currently working on an episode all about Fried Chicken and we featured Jacques-Imo's as one of our "Fried Chicken Paradises." Obviously we can't talk bout Jacques-Imo's fried chicken without mentioning Austin Leslie! I'm looking for a photo of Austin Leslie to use in the piece and I found the photo that you posted on Wikipedia. Travel Channel is really strict with permissions to use photos, and I noticed that Jason Perlow is credited as the source - is he the photographer? If he is the photographer, do you have a way that I can get in contact with him to see if he will sign a material agreement allowing us to use his photo? Please feel free to email me at suzy.beck@prometheuspix.com and please also feel free to pass my email address align to Jason Perlow. I hope to hear back from you soon!

Request for comment[edit]Hello there, a proposal regarding pre-adminship review has been raised at Village pump by Anna Frodesiak. Your comments here is very much appreciated. Many thanks. Jim Carter through MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 06:46, 28 May 2014 (UTC) Hi, after long years since making it (I think it was me, maybe it was already there), I was going to start a community page and a corresponding dab per [wiki-search below the available redlink]
Many BC local and community articles were just stubs at the time; did it not have a stub tag? I still find the occasional one that doesn't. It might not have had one maybe? And a simple google search would have come up with the major community and area of the Fraser Valley that this is, with a high school, a native archaeo site and museum, lake and adjoining prairie and mountain all taking their name from "Hatzic", which was the name used for the people of the locality; given it's an obscenity for the male member, referring to a root gathered in the area, what their actual name in Halkomelem was I don't know; unless in the days it wasn't an obscenity per cultural changes in times past and was in fact the name of the group. They are linked west to the Kwantlens, as I was recently told by another user who's steeped in local lore (he's 84) The primary topic of that title is a major topic, i.e. the community, and has numerous related dabs; rather than deleted it you should have tagged it for expansion and improvement. Or perhaps contacted the author; if it was me I was around Wikipedia for a while already and had made many community/locality titles for BC, this may have been one of them. I'll be recreating it later on today or tomorrow; a bit stunned it's not there, it's a major neighbourhood of Mission, British Columbia, an OMI mission school located there is the town's namesake, and one of the most historica locations in British Columbia for a number of reasons.Skookum1 (talk) 08:55, 20 February 2015 (UTC) What was the reason for you to delete the above non profit charitable society page , can you kindly restore it please.(Raafat (talk) 01:21, 4 April 2015 (UTC)) FYI - since you've previously edited the article. Bazj (talk) 11:50, 6 June 2015 (UTC) Hi, Hi, Requested edit[edit]
My name is Master Phillip Redmond. I'm one of the senior students under Grandmaster William Cheung. When I did a wiki search I found that there was information missing. First of all. My name and the other senior Master, Keith Mazza in the U.S. weren't mentioned. Also, William Cheung has changed the name of his Traditional Wing Chun Kung Fu Association to the Global Traditional Wing Chun Kung Fu Association (GTWCKFA). I made the corrections and someone named Chrisw80 deleted them. I made the corrections again and he deleted them again saying that I needed a secondary source. I understand that part so I sent him a message showing a video of the ceremony I performed with William Cheung to become the second of only two people in the U.S. to have had the honor. My updates were still deleted. What can I do to fix this? Sifupr (talk) 15:54, 20 April 2016 (UTC)
William Cheung[edit]You know what, I guess there's nothing I can do. When people who know the facts about William Cheung read his wikipedia page they'll just have to rub their heads. Have a great day.

Kenny Vaughan[edit]Hey, I was wondering why you deleted a page on producer/songwriter/guitarist Kenny Vaughan? He's done a substantial amount of work in music, TV and film and was just curious.

This message is intended to notify administrators of important changes to the protection policy. Extended confirmed protection (also known as "30/500 protection") is a new level of page protection that only allows edits from accounts at least 30 days old and with 500 edits. The automatically assigned "extended confirmed" user right was created for this purpose. The protection level was created following this community discussion with the primary intention of enforcing various arbitration remedies that prohibited editors under the "30 days/500 edits" threshold to edit certain topic areas. In July and August 2016, a request for comment established consensus for community use of the new protection level. Administrators are authorized to apply extended confirmed protection to combat any form of disruption (e.g. vandalism, sock puppetry, edit warring, etc.) on any topic, subject to the following conditions:
Please review the protection policy carefully before using this new level of protection on pages. Thank you. Two-Factor Authentication now available for admins[edit]Hello, Please note that TOTP based two-factor authentication is now available for all administrators. In light of the recent compromised accounts, you are encouraged to add this additional layer of security to your account. It may be enabled on your preferences page in the "User profile" tab under the "Basic information" section. For basic instructions on how to enable two-factor authentication, please see the developing help page for additional information. Important: Be sure to record the two-factor authentication key and the single use keys. If you lose your two factor authentication and do not have the keys, it's possible that your account will not be recoverable. Furthermore, you are encouraged to utilize a unique password and two-factor authentication for the email account associated with your Wikimedia account. This measure will assist in safeguarding your account from malicious password resets. Comments, questions, and concerns may be directed to the thread on the administrators' noticeboard.

A new user group, New Page Reviewer, has been created in a move to greatly improve the standard of new page patrolling. The user right can be granted by any admin at PERM. It is highly recommended that admins look beyond the simple numerical threshold and satisfy themselves that the candidates have the required skills of communication and an advanced knowledge of notability and deletion. Admins are automatically included in this user right. It is anticipated that this user right will significantly reduce the work load of admins who patrol the performance of the patrollers. However,due to the complexity of the rollout, some rights may have been accorded that may later need to be withdrawn, so some help will still be needed to some extent when discovering wrongly applied deletion tags or inappropriate pages that escape the attention of less experienced reviewers, and above all, hasty and bitey tagging for maintenance. User warnings are available here but very often a friendly custom message works best. If you have any questions about this user right, don't hesitate to join us at WT:NPR.

This message was sent to all administrators following a recent motion. Thank you for your attention. For the Arbitration Committee, Cameron11598 02:39, 4 May 2019 (UTC) Administrator account security (Correction to Arbcom 2019 special circular)[edit]ArbCom would like to apologise and correct our previous mass message in light of the response from the community. Since November 2018, six administrator accounts have been compromised and temporarily desysopped. In an effort to help improve account security, our intention was to remind administrators of existing policies on account security — that they are required to "have strong passwords and follow appropriate personal security practices." We have updated our procedures to ensure that we enforce these policies more strictly in the future. The policies themselves have not changed. In particular, two-factor authentication remains an optional means of adding extra security to your account. The choice not to enable 2FA will not be considered when deciding to restore sysop privileges to administrator accounts that were compromised. We are sorry for the wording of our previous message, which did not accurately convey this, and deeply regret the tone in which it was delivered.

You may, similarly as with Edit Filter Manager, choose to self-assign this permission to yourself. This will be implemented the week of December 13th, but if you wish to self-assign you may do so now.

You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki. When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed. Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help. If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter. We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January. Thank you. /Johan (WMF) 18:13, 4 January 2022 (UTC) Nomination for deletion of Template:Badcleanup[edit]
