| Hi Nyttend, | |||
| You deleted my article: 23:13, 31 May 2024 Nyttend talk contribs deleted page Draft:Anne H. Flitcraft (G11: Unambiguous advertising or promotion) (thank) that I need for a class assignment and I was wondering if it was any way possible to get that article back? Or if you could possibly put it back into draft space so that I can edit it? Please let me know, thanks. | |||
| Hi Nyttend - your post on my talk was exceptionally offensive. I would have replied sooner but I have a terrible temper. In your post you don't tell me what redirect you refer to; nor do you give me any chance to defend myself but, worst of all - you actually threaten me that if I do not behave as you wish I might be sanctioned by more than yourself for - as you suggest - vandalism. | |||

| :Thank you for your message back on my talk page. It was just a bit of frustration really. After 4 years of editing I have nearly 10,000 articles on my watchlist, and seem to be spending more and more time reverting unsourced edits. There's hardly any time to improve articles anymore. I stumbled into editing rap music articles about a year ago, and probably 95 percent of my edits there are reverts and vandals.

Based on that, I took the articles that I created that I was having trouble finding additional sources or evidence of notability of, draftified then until I could do more research, and removed the entries I had created from the template. I didn't just go deleting redlinks, I deleted redlinks that I had added myself on a mistaken interpretation of the rules, then corrected when I realized my error.

| == Partial blocks == | |||
| Per your question at ANI, I'll try to answer. | |||
| You can block editors from specific pages, in whatever namespace, or from entire namespaces. This is often useful in stopping edit warriors, as it's less drastic than a siteblock, and allows them to make their case on the article talkpage, for instance. You can block from multiple pages in different namespaces. | |||
| Namespace blocks can be useful for dealing with an editor who is to focused on WP space pot-stirring. . . Someone who is less than competent with templates might need a template space block. I've also used it for editors who are polite and communicative, but who have chronic sourcing issues in article space. | |||
| It can be extremely useful where you might otherwise have to place an overly large IP rangeblock - you can deal with a focused problem IP range by blocking the individual articles or editors they've focused on. Harassment IPs are often dealt with that way. | |||
| I wasn't keen on it at first, and there are still many times when someone just needs a siteblock. But it's a little gentler than a siteblock for editors whose problems can be isolated to a few locations, or where you want to preserve access to most of the 'pedia from a big range.. | |||

Based on the NRHP nomination documentation, https://www.dhr.virginia.gov/VLR_to_transfer/PDFNoms/121-0037_First_Denbigh_Church_AE_Site_1982_Final_Nomination.pdf, the location was cited as being nearest 18 Walters Road, about 4500ft south, at the next creek convergence. Language in the NRHP doc described 15 feet out of 50 of the church having being lost to erosion before rip rap was added, implying it was right on the river.

| == User:JohnCD: Death real or hoax? == | |||
| Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns. | |||
| This has turned into a problem. I know you took the initiative in posting a memorial notice on JohnCD's talk page and in trying to confirm the message about his death. Please see the additional messages from the IP on my talk page and in the message section on JohnCD's talk page. I have been chastised and rebuked, justly if a bit strongly by a few, for being gullible and insensitive, for not confirming the message, etc. As I state in my longer message on the administrator noticeboard in response to the comments, I had a few reasons to think the message could be genuine and the followup messages now add some further reason for me to think that, even though that might add to my gullibility (good faith?). Then again, this may be the fake death news vandal that I did not know about. The followup messages have a little more information and seem sincere so that adds to my confusion, I guess. Also, the message was not posted to my talk page until the day John said he would likely return to editing. I saw that before I posted the message, thinking that a sincere message would not have preceded that date and that a hoax would not have much time to take effect after it. On the noticeboard, User:Someguy1221 stated he could not confirm a name as stated in the messages, presumably not being able to connect it to the account. So that seems to point to me being wrong. I have just realized that perhaps the fact these messages were posted on my talk page and not initially on JohnCD's talk page (though there are messages from the IP there now) might have raised some doubt. | |||
| Kind Regards, | |||
| I am leaving this message because you posted a notice saying you would try to confirm the news about John. I want to be sure you are caught up with the various further messages, the ones from the IP at least, and the doubt that has been raised. If you can confirm the news, please let me know. Although I won't be online much in the next few days, I would like to clear this up. I suppose we wlll be able to confirm this one way or the other within the next few days or weeks as a matter of course but I am somewhat disheartened by my seeming gullibility and waste of people's time. I have embarrassed and diminished myself by not handling this more prudently even if it is true but especially if it is not. At this point I am not sure what to believe. None of that is very important, of course, if the best resolution, that John in fact is alive and well, is the real story. | |||

Communities of Perry County, Tennessee template edits
Good afternoon! I see that you reverted an edit to this template to a version including a number of red links to pages that had been draftified until notability can be established. I am unsure of what you mean by your edit summary of "Redirecting communities to the county is grossly inappropriate," as it appears as though all you did was restore a number of red links. Could you please further explain what you were trying to do? Thanks! nf utvol (talk) 19:22, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
- They might not be notable, though. I added these places after I found them in the GNIS, but before I discovered the rule that simply existing in GNIS isn't enough for geographic places. Based on that, I took the articles that I created that I was having trouble finding additional sources or evidence of notability of, draftified then until I could do more research, and removed the entries I had created from the template. I didn't just go deleting redlinks, I deleted redlinks that I had added myself on a mistaken interpretation of the rules, then corrected when I realized my error. Either way, I'm still not sure what you were talking about with the redirecting comment, as none were redirects to the county.nf utvol (talk) 01:47, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

Partial blocks
Per your question at ANI, I'll try to answer.
You can block editors from specific pages, in whatever namespace, or from entire namespaces. This is often useful in stopping edit warriors, as it's less drastic than a siteblock, and allows them to make their case on the article talkpage, for instance. You can block from multiple pages in different namespaces.
Namespace blocks can be useful for dealing with an editor who is to focused on WP space pot-stirring. . . Someone who is less than competent with templates might need a template space block. I've also used it for editors who are polite and communicative, but who have chronic sourcing issues in article space.
It can be extremely useful where you might otherwise have to place an overly large IP rangeblock - you can deal with a focused problem IP range by blocking the individual articles or editors they've focused on. Harassment IPs are often dealt with that way.
I wasn't keen on it at first, and there are still many times when someone just needs a siteblock. But it's a little gentler than a siteblock for editors whose problems can be isolated to a few locations, or where you want to preserve access to most of the 'pedia from a big range..

Proposed deletion of Robinson Township, Pennsylvania
The article Robinson Township, Pennsylvania has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Not required due to WP:TWODABS. Articles now appear separately at Robinson, and both link to each other.
While all constructive contributions to Misplaced Pages are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist.

First Denbigh Parish Church Archeological Site Picture - precision location?
Hi Nyttend! You have an original picture attached to the First Denbigh Parish Church Archeological Site article here . In the description, you have it located 'off Miller Road' at 37° 06′ 14″ N, 76° 33′ 07″ W. Based on the NRHP nomination documentation, https://www.dhr.virginia.gov/VLR_to_transfer/PDFNoms/121-0037_First_Denbigh_Church_AE_Site_1982_Final_Nomination.pdf, the location was cited as being nearest 18 Walters Road, about 4500ft south, at the next creek convergence. Language in the NRHP doc described 15 feet out of 50 of the church having being lost to erosion before rip rap was added, implying it was right on the river. The Newport News property records at https://assessment.nnva.gov/PT/datalets/datalet.aspx?mode=sales&UseSearch=no&pin=178000121&jur=700&taxyr=2025&LMparent=20 also match the NRHP assertion of a Donald Shenk owning the land at the time of the 1981/2 submission. Before I update, do you happen to have a different source or personal knowledge that would put the location that 0.85 miles north, near Miller Road?

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,

Hurricane Kristy (2024)
I saw that two days ago you had overruled my decline of Hurricane Kristy (2024) and moved it into mainspace anyway. There was an active discussion as to whether Category 5 hurricanes warrant notability, and the article will now most likely be merged. Why did you move it? SirMemeGod 17:17, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
Since you said you were curious about CTOP
Since you mentioned that you weren't familiar with the CTOP protection enforcements and were curious - if enforcing a protection of a page as part of WP:CTOP - there's a logging procedure outlined at Misplaced Pages:Contentious_topics#Logging to log said protection at the relevant subsection in the log, such as Misplaced Pages:Arbitration_enforcement_log#American_politics_(CT/AP) for enforcing an AMPOL protection so a history of such protections is centralized, for example to say be able to see how often a certain arbitration enforcement had to be enacted each year. As I'm editing fairly frequently on various CTOP articles and counter vandalism patrol, I've encountered my fair share of it, so I've become fairly familiar with the theoretical aspect of it to seek help from admins on it to help enforcement as necessary :) It's up to the admins discretion, but given the vandalism appeared clearly politically motivated, I would have considered it to fall under the AMPOL CTOP, which is why I suggested logging it, but it's up to you as the admin that imposed it of course :) Raladic (talk) 04:35, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
