| Following a ] in June 2011, consensus was reached to ] (i.e. administrators who have not made any edits or logged actions in over one year). As a result of this discussion, your administrative permissions have been removed pending your return. If you wish to have these permissions reinstated, please post to the ] and the userright will be restored per the ] (i.e. as long as the attending bureaucrats are reasonably satisfied that your account has not been compromised, that your inactivity did not have the effect of evading scrutiny of any actions which might have led to sanctions, and that you have not been inactive for a three year period of time). If you remain inactive for a three year period of time, including the present year you have been inactive, you will need to request reinstatement at ]. This removal of access is procedural only, and not intended to reflect negatively upon you in any way.

| Hi! I'm wondering exactly which unblock requests at ] were sufficiently disruptive to edit-protect that page; nobody besides the editor himself, the blocking admin, you, and me has edited that page, and though his requests are awfully whiny, they are hardly disruptive. Also, there's no need to protect the page anyway; if his requests were sufficiently disruptive to warrant slamming the door shut, we simply change the block to disallow user talk page editing (that way, nobody but the blocked user is affected.) ]<sup><small>]</small></sup> 18:19, 25 August 2015 (UTC) | |||

Perhaps you can try to find out the specific concerns that the other editor(s) might have and directly address them. I understand that is more work for you, but because the information being added is potentially libelous, there is a burden on the person adding it to show that the sources are reliable. Because I have protected the page (and will keep protecting it until the issue is resolved), I should probably take a step back from the discussion and let you guys thrash it out, but I will keep an eye on it. Thanks. ] (]) 09:28, 21 September 2015 (UTC) | |||
| :{{ping|TigerShark}} I pinged them and I also sent them a message on their talk pages, as you can see they chose to ignore it.

| ::{{yo|Makeandtoss}} Hi again. As I mentioned I would rather observe the discussion than get involved. However, you asked how any of the information could be potentially libelous. Is it not fairly obvious that (for example) the claim regarding the HSBC is potentially libelous?

| == Extended confirmed protection == | |||
| {{ivmbox|1=Hello, TigerShark. This message is intended to notify administrators of important changes to the protection policy. | |||
| ] (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 ] was created for this purpose. The protection level was created following ] 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, ] 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: | |||
| * '''Extended confirmed protection may only be used in cases where semi-protection has proven ineffective'''. It should not be used as a first resort. | |||
| * '''A bot will post a notification at ] of each use'''. MusikBot currently does this by updating ], which is transcluded onto the noticeboard. | |||

| Hello, | Hello, | ||

The survey is anonymous and should take about 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its ] and view its ]. | |||

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 ] in the "User profile" tab under the "Basic information" section. For basic instructions on how to enable two-factor authentication, please see the ] 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.

| == A new user right for New Page Patrollers == | |||
| Kind Regards, | |||
| Hi {{BASEPAGENAME}}. | |||
| ] | |||
| A new user group, ], 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 ]. 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. | |||
| <bdi lang="en" dir="ltr">] (]) 00:17, 13 November 2024 (UTC) </bdi> | |||
| 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 ] but very often a friendly custom message works best. | |||

| == Administrator account security (Correction to Arbcom 2019 special circular) == | |||
| 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 ] to "have strong passwords and ]." We have ] our procedures to ensure that we enforce these policies more strictly in the future. The policies themselves have not changed. In particular, ] 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. | |||

Invitation to participate in a research
Hello,
The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Misplaced Pages, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.
You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.
The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .
Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.
Kind Regards,
