Hello,
I noticed that you have deleted the Unicornscan.
Could you please point me to some justification of this?


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 ''''''.

You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.
On your talk page this time. You stated: "your current vote likely will confuse the hell out of a lot of users..." How many users who voted '''support''' actually understand the C# code TawkerBotTorA is written in ? ]


The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its ] and view its ] .
== Retrieval ==


Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.
Would it be possible to retrieve the article somehow? I couldn't figure that out from the deletion history.
Thanks

I did not have time to add the hangon tag to this page after it was marked. I had made links from the ] page (the reference was there, I just added link capability. I was also referenced under [[List of high schools in Mississippi

Is there any way you could do this? Often, a user who had a change reverted by the bot also performed many other vandalizations. If the bot could check through the user's edits, it would help clear out vandalism even faster.

With all due respect I think I'll have to dispute your speedy of this one. Removing warnings is considered vandalism per VAND and it is a well known and accepted practice to block / protect user talk pages of users who constantly remove it. I must ask that you restore it..... -- ] 05:13, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

:] has undeleted them. As I said to him, I'm not going to delete them again, I'll just let my reasoning stand for itself and someone else can act if they like. I will have to disagree with you about these templates. I'm sure that blocking and protection can be used in many cases where a user is removing warnings, for example if a vandal is blanking warnings to confuse future RC patrollers (I'd block them myself in that case). But the problem with the templates is that they imply a universal approach, and policy status, when that is simply not the case. I've expressed these reasons ] and ]. How would you respond to those arguments? --]&nbsp;(]) 06:11, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

:Also, please note that you are incorrect about the contents of ]. While the concept that user talk pages should be used as a 'rap sheet' / 'wall of shame' for past warnings ''has'' been inserted into that policy multiple times it has been removed just as many because there was never a consensus in support of such a change. What you describe as a "well known and accepted practice" is, in fact, strongly opposed as blockable harassment by a large number of admins... as can be seen in the current AN discussions noted above. --] 12:03, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Hello Tawker. I was reading the 'Bot's user page when I came across this:<br>

''"...It is a set of check statements that if enough match true, it reverts. The patterns will be emailed upon request to users who can be trusted..."''<br>

I was wondering if I could get the pattern e-mailed to me. I can assure you that I am ''not'' a vandal. In fact, I spend most of my wiki-time reverting vandalism, and my Userpage was even targeted several times. I'm really curious about bots and yours seems to be the most active on the pages that I watch. My e-mail can be reached by clicking the "E-mail this user" link from my Userpage. Thank you for your time and take it easy. -]] <sup>]</sup> 16:46, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

On the subject of the logo for WPWP (or 'wip-wip' as I call it), how big/what aspect ratio are the ] icons? I've (yes, bludgeon me to an undignified death now) never used iTunes, so I'm not exactly sure how it handles that. Give me an aspect ratio or size, and I'll have a go at something. If you give me a size, I'll probably work at about 1.5/2x of that then scale down, so a bigger version would be available. Also, unless you have any particular objections, I assume you'd be happy with a JPG? Also might want to inform me of any particular themes you want - heraldic scroll? 1920s newspaper?

Hello. You are listed as a member of the Bot Approvals Group but it appears you may not be actively helping in this area anymore. Do you intend to return to BAG-related activity on Misplaced Pages, or are you happy to be removed from this list? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 12:57, 14 December 2023 (UTC)

Administrative permissions and inactivity reminder
