I am honestly sick of this, doing everything all over again because some uncivilized little child doesn't like others contributing to his/her idol's article. This is unfair and abusive…. how no one is stopping this child from reverting. Why aren't there any administrators looking at the Tisdale article? In my opinion this user is abusing his/her advantages of editing on Misplaced Pages. Every edit is reverted by Juanacho, if Juanacho doesn’t agree with what the other users have done, he/she will just revert their edits immediately. This is abuse… But my opinion and edits don't matter, all of my effort means nothing this has been continuing for a very long time now. Why isn't there anyone stopping this user?

| Hey Gimmetrow, I just noticed something funny with Gimmebot; it's not serious, but just something you might be interested in. | |||
| Gimmebot just beat me to updating ArticleHistory on ] () after it passed GA, but instead of listing {{para|action1date}} as March 22, the day the GAN was closed, Gimmebot put in 22:47, 20 March 2009 . I'm not sure where he got that date, it's not a beginning of end of anything; the only thing I can see that it coincides with is a large edit I made to the GA review page . Anyway, like I said, it's not a serious problem or anything, but maybe something you'd be interested in looking into if you know of it happening to other people as well. | |||

| **** Go ahead with FAC. I said I would keep doing that. ] 15:47, 26 April 2009 (UTC) | |||
| I don't know if I can add any helpful comments, but I'd like to try. GA reviews traditionally took place on the talk page of the article. This had the advantage that reviews were deeply integrated with the article improvement process. When GA review subpages were introduced for better accountability, the consensus was to use transcluded talk subpages to try to retain this benefit. In my view, the change has worked well. | |||
| On talk pages, discussions are only archived when they are no longer useful, or after a time lapse. A GA review can remain useful after it has been closed. There is some confusion on Misplaced Pages between closing a discussion (meaning, no further contributions should be added) and archiving it (meaning removing it from immediate sight). The confusion is transparent in some of the templates (e.g. {{tl|archive top}}). Different processes have different ways of dealing with this confusion. | |||
| Regarding GA, I think it is worth discussing automatic ''closing'' of GA reviews (i.e., framing the discussion in a template advising that the review should not be modified), but I hope these comments help to explain why automatic ''archiving'' (removal) of GA reviews from talk subpages has met with some concern.

This ban includes any other accounts they may hold. If any of these people have something to say to me, their reprseentative must contact me first through "email this user" and obtain my authorisation.

Return of sysop user-right
Hi Gimmetrow. Welcome back. I have returned your sysop user-right, and I do hope to see you around a bit more. As always, there's lots to do! As I mentioned at BN, if you could use the Template:Cite web for the birthdate references, I am sure that will help people in the future. Worm(talk) 13:11, 25 January 2023 (UTC)
Meg Foster date
Sure. I know Google Books (and more generally Google) gives different results for different users, but if you insert the string "Meg Foster" "May 14, 1948" on Google Books you should be able to locate it. Obviously if you want to remove the date of birth or want to mention only the year of birth on the basis of privacy concerns you are free to do it, but the reference is certainly correct.

Administrative permissions and inactivity reminder
This is a reminder that established policy provides for removal of the administrative permissions of users who have made fewer than 100 edits over a 60-month period. You are receiving this annual reminder since you have averaged less than 50 edits per year over the last 5 years.
Inactive administrators are encouraged to reengage with the project in earnest rather than to make token edits to avoid loss of administrative permissions. Resources and support for reengaging with the project are available at Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Editor Retention/administrators. If you do not intend to be engaged with the project in the foreseeable future, please consider voluntarily resigning your administrative permissions by making a request at the bureaucrats' noticeboard.
Thank you for your past contributions to the project. — JJMC89 bot 00:21, 1 January 2024 (UTC)
