Hello {{<includeonly>safesubst:</includeonly>BASEPAGENAME}}:


== Hi ==
''']''' is holding a ''' month long ]'''!<br />
I know you've been less active on Misplaced Pages lately, so I'm not sure if this will mean much to you. But I wanted you to know that I now think the Committee was overly harsh in desysopping you in 2018. If you could see yourself ever back actively and happily adminning, let me know if you'd ever want to talk about the path to becoming a sysop again. Best, ''']''' (<small>aka</small> ] '''·''' ] '''·''' ]) 21:20, 19 November 2023 (UTC)
The goal of this drive is to '''eliminate''' the backlog of unreviewed articles. The drive is running until 31 July 2021.
*Thanks {{ping|L235}}, I won't lie, I've been thinking about it recently! I've stayed a bit out of sight of patrolling the admin/community boards but I wouldn't consider myself inactive, I still edit here and there every week. Also, I don't necessarily think the desysopping was unwarranted, although I do miss the gnoming/clerking work I was able to so back then. I'm definitely open to returning to active duty if you think the community will support it! <span style="background:black;padding:1px 4px">]&nbsp;]</span> 23:11, 19 November 2023 (UTC)


== Good article reassessment for ] ==
Barnstars will be given out as awards at the end of the drive.<br />
] has been nominated for a good article reassessment. If you are interested in the discussion, please participate by adding your comments to the ]. If concerns are not addressed during the review period, the good article status may be removed from the article. ] (]) 14:17, 10 May 2024 (UTC)
There is currently a backlog of over {{Rounddown|{{formatnum:{{PAGESINCATEGORY:Pending AfC submissions}}|R}}|-2}} articles, so start reviewing articles. We're looking forward to your help!

== I'm trying to help you ==

But these problems frustrate me, and that people refuse to think about what I'm saying is even more frustrating. I'm not asking you to take my word for anything. Just read what I have to say and think. I want things to get better. I'm tired of things being so terrible. ] (]) 10:52, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
:I've read what you said. I understand your point about the risks of using non-libre software. My point is that you are hurting yourself trying to fight a tiny battle when the entire war has been lost a decade ago. Privacy is dead. Everybody carries a surveillance device everywhere, every word you say or type, everywhere you go, all of your data is stored on countless servers. That's how the world goes. Putting disclaimers on stuff will not effect even the tiniest bit of change. The only truly private place is inside your brain (for now). So enjoy the privacy of your thoughts while you still can. <span style="background:black;padding:1px 4px">]&nbsp;]</span> 11:03, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
::Believing that certainly helps them, but it doesn't help you. If there really is no way to save ourselves from the oncoming destruction, then at least we can die trying. If you do nothing, you will automatically fail. If you try, there's a chance of success. Even the lowest possibility of succeeding is better than no possibility at all. ] (]) 11:05, 10 July 2021 (UTC)

Game hint lines

I came across an article in GamePro about live game counselors and 900 hint lines which has one or two useful pieces of info. The trouble is, I can't seem to find an article on Misplaced Pages where such information might appropriately go. Any suggestions?--Martin IIIa (talk) 20:34, 30 May 2017 (UTC)

There's probably enough coverage to convert Nintendo Power Line into a broader concept of Video Game hint lines, of which the most famous was the Nintendo Power Line: Kotaku, A.V. Club, the line was revived for the NES Mini launch (Engadget, CNet, Polygon), Wikia (unusable as a source but can be used as a base for research), featured in The Wizard, that time when one number was bought by an sex company (N4G, NBC, Wired), Gamasutra, Felicia Day biography, Geek.com, Sierra Hint Line (this is an archive of 1989 Sierra Magazine), Sega, Konami also had their own Hint Lines. ☺ · Salvidrim! · ✉ 20:55, 30 May 2017 (UTC)

Evil Stone moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Evil Stone, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more in-depth coverage about the subject itself, with citations from reliable, independent sources in order to show it meets WP:GNG. It should have at least three, to be safe. And please remember that interviews, as primary sources, do not count towards GNG.(?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Misplaced Pages). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Misplaced Pages's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.Onel5969 13:19, 21 May 2023 (UTC)

If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.

Thank you for your submission to Misplaced Pages. FireflyBot (talk) 14:03, 21 October 2023 (UTC)


Hi

I know you've been less active on Misplaced Pages lately, so I'm not sure if this will mean much to you. But I wanted you to know that I now think the Committee was overly harsh in desysopping you in 2018. If you could see yourself ever back actively and happily adminning, let me know if you'd ever want to talk about the path to becoming a sysop again. Best, KevinL (aka L235 · t · c) 21:20, 19 November 2023 (UTC)

  • Thanks @L235:, I won't lie, I've been thinking about it recently! I've stayed a bit out of sight of patrolling the admin/community boards but I wouldn't consider myself inactive, I still edit here and there every week. Also, I don't necessarily think the desysopping was unwarranted, although I do miss the gnoming/clerking work I was able to so back then. I'm definitely open to returning to active duty if you think the community will support it! Ben · Salvidrim! ✉ 23:11, 19 November 2023 (UTC)

If the result of the previous AfD was "delete", surely this article should not exist and its re-creation should be eligible for PROD? – PeeJay 11:57, 25 June 2024 (UTC)

  • Hi @PeeJay:, unfortunately, as per policy, an article subject is **ineligible for PROD if it has even been PRODed or AfD'ed in the past**. WP:PRODNOM. Note that if the new article is substantially identical, CSD#G4 may apply, which an administrator can evaluate by viewing deleted revisions (but considering the decade in-between I doubt that it meets the "substantially similar" threshold of the usual post-AfD recreations). Ben · Salvidrim! ✉ 12:27, 25 June 2024 (UTC)
    Frustratingly, I can't see what the deleted version of the article looks like to compare. Do you know any way to do that? Happy to nominate under CSD#G4 if valid, otherwise I think this would definitely fail an AfD. – PeeJay 23:11, 25 June 2024 (UTC)
    Hi, only admins can view deleted revisions. But considering the decade in-between I doubt that it meets the "substantially similar" threshold of the usual post-AfD recreations anyways. Ben · Salvidrim! ✉ 23:33, 25 June 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Deimos Rising coverart.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of non-free use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Misplaced Pages (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:09, 9 December 2024 (UTC)
