Good afternoon, I noticed that you had reversed changes on the ] page because they were vandalizing it and violating Misplaced Pages's terms and policies. I wanted to inform you that the page has been vandalized again, and I was wondering if you could reverse the changes and look into protecting the page once more against these vandalic actions. Thank you. ] (]) 16:11, 2 December 2024 (UTC)

Hi {{ping|HJ Mitchell}} Hope you are well and Happy New Year! {{u|Murgatroyd49}} and I have been thinking about the ] page, and whether it would be appropriate to split out the war memorials into their own list. There are currently over 70 war memorials listed on the page, but I think that there are at least another 50 (quite possibly another 100 more). A split would give us the opportunity to include indoor memorials – I know of about a dozen villages that don't have an outdoor monument but that do have a plaques inside their churches, for example.<br>
:Sorry; I meant ]. Also, to specify, the entire JSTOR thing appears to have been copy-pasted from the lead up to the "Incumbents" section. ] (]) 19:40, 2 December 2024 (UTC)
We agree that if we are to go ahead, it would be worth rethinking the way that we format the list and considering what information should be displayed for each memorial. We have been playing around with some possible layouts at ]. We think it is worth exploring these options before formally proposing the split. Would you be able to drop by and let us know what you think please? We have started a discussion at ]. There is also the question of breaking up the table by grouping the memorials into different categories by design/appearance.<br>
::(By the way), I think a lot of the original editor who made the copyvios' edits were also incorrectly sourced? I can try to find them if you'd like. Thanks, ] (]) 19:43, 2 December 2024 (UTC)
I have half an eye on a potential Featured List nomination in the very far future, so I am keen to make sure that any formatting and categorisation decisions we take now would not prevent a successful nomination.
Thanks and best wishes ] (]) 12:27, 12 January 2025 (UTC)

How should Misplaced Pages defend the frenish page? Thanks in advance for the answer. Thank you. (] (]) 18:29, 13 January 2025 (UTC)
Good day! Would you care to run a CU on {{User|Abduvaitov Sherzod 2}}? Prolific puppetmaster who has created many accounts to circumvent locks. Had a rash of new accounts created in the last few days that follow the same naming convention for all the other sockpuppet accounts. The was closed by ] without action for most of the reported accounts since they didn't have any contribs and I forgot to tag the CU request when submitting the report. Bbb23 recommended I reach out to a CU directly to follow up for a check before reopening an SPI.


== Help ==
The following accounts are believed to be the most recent puppets:

== ] article vandalism and suspicious edits ==

Hello HJ, I noticed that you recently blocked the user Eessa Zaidi for vandalism on the article ] (which seems to have become a vandalism magnet as of late. There have been continued disruptive editing, and several editors who may be sock puppets (based on their related user names and behavior patterns. Not all their edits are disruptive but they are a little odd. They are:

* Eessaisnotveryskibidi
* Skbiditoiletfanumtaxhardworker
* Sezai12342
* IP 24.51.233.159

I saw that you are a check user, if you have the time to run a check on these accounts, it might help to curb disruption. (Maybe also partial protection if it continues and you think that would help.)

Thanks in advance! ] (]) 23:37, 5 December 2024 (UTC)

War memorials in Surrey

Hi @HJ Mitchell: Hope you are well and Happy New Year! Murgatroyd49 and I have been thinking about the List of public art in Surrey page, and whether it would be appropriate to split out the war memorials into their own list. There are currently over 70 war memorials listed on the page, but I think that there are at least another 50 (quite possibly another 100 more). A split would give us the opportunity to include indoor memorials – I know of about a dozen villages that don't have an outdoor monument but that do have a plaques inside their churches, for example.
We agree that if we are to go ahead, it would be worth rethinking the way that we format the list and considering what information should be displayed for each memorial. We have been playing around with some possible layouts at User:Murgatroyd49/sandbox3. We think it is worth exploring these options before formally proposing the split. Would you be able to drop by and let us know what you think please? We have started a discussion at User talk:Murgatroyd49/sandbox3. There is also the question of breaking up the table by grouping the memorials into different categories by design/appearance.
I have half an eye on a potential Featured List nomination in the very far future, so I am keen to make sure that any formatting and categorisation decisions we take now would not prevent a successful nomination. Thanks and best wishes Mertbiol (talk) 12:27, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
