== Curiosity about Autopatrolled rights ==
</td></tr>
Hello Samir, coming to you after some time. How are you? Let me tell you why I'm here again. I have been creating articles, templates, talkpages, javascripts etc for quite sometime now. Since I'm creating those stuffs I thought of requesting autopatrolled rights but I don't know if I'm eligible for that right. I have seen {{noping|Dargonflysixtyseven}} indulges lots and lots of time in reviewing the huge backlog of new pages. Since I have been creating pages so I thought of asking for this right so that I can help users who indulges huge time to review pages. As I mentioned you earlier, I have not only created articles. But also rewritten articles, improved old abandoned drafts etc. One of my newest article is ], a B class; Top importance article. {{noping|Sitush}} is also trying to add more info(s) and take it for GA or Peer review. It is currently on DYK nominations page; reviewed by {{noping|Zanhe}} and has been passed. I have also been involved in creating Javascripts for WikiProjects like AfC and WikiProject Delsorting etc. There are links in my userpage which will take you to my created articles and Javascripts. On the other hand I have also created many templates and Userboxes. One my finest templates created onbehalf of ] is {{tl|Ck}}. I have also saved ] from getting inactive. So I thought of asking you about your opinion about my elibility to get this userright before I go public. Many Thanks!. (You can leave your message on your talkpage, I have it on my Watchlist) Thank you again; your opinions are precious. :) ''']''' <sup>(])</sup> 12:13, 24 April 2014 (UTC)

Hi. I saw you archived the thread at ANI. ? Bloom is getting his/her priorities wrong still, and has an issue with it. He should be apologizing to me, not to Josh. I think he's got away with it very lightly. &nbsp;—&nbsp;] 09:04, 10 November 2015 (UTC)
:Hi Calvin. Removing content on one's own talk page has been reviewed a few times, and is thought to be OK. Not nice, but within the rules. If there is any other concern regarding civility, please don't hesitate to buzz me. All the best. ] 15:11, 10 November 2015 (UTC)
::Just yesterday, Calvin that "ou're entitled to remove things from you're own talk". It's interesting to note how he's now suggesting that this very act constitutes incivility. What's with the sudden change? —] (]) 19:47, 10 November 2015 (UTC)
::: Once again, you're missing the point. Yes, you can edit your own talk as your like, but why didn't you remove Josh's comment? Because he can block you? Your somewhat murky apology was given to the wrong person. Removing my comment, which was perfectly civil and had a point to it, shows that you have a lack of respect and poor judgment. It's only made you look worse in this situation as a whole as you can't seem to deal with authority (well, you can, from someone who can block you). It was bad faith on your part; you had a few opportunities to apologise for your behavior and you rejected them. I still think you should have been blocked and other editors agreed, given your history too. &nbsp;—&nbsp;] 10:23, 12 November 2015 (UTC)
:::::Not at all. If I'm the one missing the point all this time, how's your advocacy for GA→DYK WikiCup points going? How much support have you garnered for that idea of yours (i.e. the source of the original argument)? Your description of your comment as {{tq|"perfectly civil and had a point to it"}} is laughable at best. Your demanding that I apologize to you and giving your two cents worth over whether I should be blocked (once again showing your inability to accept ]) is the sort of ] that is ABC (anything but civil). I wasn't apologizing to Josh, and I'm sure as hell not afraid of him blocking me, since he's clearly ] not just from last year's ANI, but from last year's WikiCup discussion as well. And of course I'm not apologizing to you, as it takes two to start a fight. Not to mention the fact that you ''chose'' to take offence at something that is not offensive, and had no intent of being offensive. Yet I see you go around several discussion threads proclaiming that you're entitled to an apology and that I should apologize to you. You know what, since it irks you so very much, I'm going to continue my policy of not giving you the apology you so desperately want. But I will give you the last word. Go ahead, be my guest. —] (]) 00:37, 13 November 2015 (UTC)
::::::: Yes you are. I didn't start a fight, I started a discussion which you then turned into a battleground for incivility. You did apologise ''to Josh'' on your own talk - "I apologize for my ignorance" - albeit half-heartedly. You was offensive and others agree, and the fact that last year an ANI thread that huge was because of you shows how offensive a person you are. You can continue to choose to not apologise because you've clearly had no intention of ever doing it anyway. Also, this comment "You know what, since it irks you so very much, I'm going to continue my policy of not giving you the apology you so desperately want" is another uncivil comment because it shows that you are deliberately trying to piss me off; you keep trapping yourself in your own web with the comments you are making. I posted here on Samir's talk, and you have now created an argument here. You don't want any arguments or comments on your own talk, but you clearly don't care about imposing it on someone else's. Pinging {{u|J Milburn}} for his opinion. &nbsp;—&nbsp;] 10:34, 13 November 2015 (UTC)
::::::::(With apologies to Samir- this is the only comment I will make here.) Bloom, Calvin's views about the WikiCup points are not the source of this. As I have repeatedly said, I find his arguments uncompelling and somewhat confused. But there's no one calling for me to be blocked. The source of this dispute is your continued wikilawyering and battleground mentality- both as clear as ever in your post above, and both of which have been identified as problematic (and potentially warranting a block) by ''numerous'' editors. The fact that you're ''already'' laying out your arguments for why me blocking you would be against some policy doesn't exactly fill with me with confidence that you have any intention of changing your problematic behaviour. On the other hand, Calvin, I would recommend disengaging at this time. Your interpretation of Bloom's comment as a deliberate attempt at provocation doesn't look unreasonable. Don't rise to it. ] (]) 18:50, 13 November 2015 (UTC)

::No, I was not incivil. I was direct. I was being kinder than I should have been, and I tire quickly of editors bringing content disputes to my Talk page. When I tell them to stay off my page and use the article Talk page, I expect that to happen. Article discussions belong on articles. And above, I am being direct. If you cannot understand what happened on both my page and the article, then you are probably not suited to be an admin. I was preventing serious BLP violations(as were other editors) from being placed into one of Misplaced Pages's most trafficked articles. I suggest you do a little research on the issues concerning the ANI report before you close them. If you did research the issue, and still made that close, then you shouldn't be closing any ANI threads. I will let the close stand, but if I see further mistakes by you on ANI closes, it will become an issue. ] (]) 03:13, 11 November 2015 (UTC)
::Let me also add that I was staying away from that thread because I rely on the editors and admins at ANI to handle spurious complaints. I didn't think I had to defend myself because any editor or admin that looked at the issue would use common sense and just tell the other editor that he was edit warring and inserting serious BLP violations, and that I didn't do anything wrong. Instead, you tagged me with an 'advisement'. Advising editors to avoid "potentially offensive edit summaries" in spurious complaints is not good practice, and only encourages the type of behavior the other editor continues to engage in. It does that editor no good, and only pisses off the other editors who are correct. This will be my last comment to you. ] (]) 03:34, 11 November 2015 (UTC)

::The ] page does say "Administrators must supply a clear and specific block reason that indicates why a user was blocked. Block reasons should avoid the use of jargon as much as possible so that blocked users may better understand them. Administrators should notify users when blocking them by leaving a message on their user talk page. It is often easier to explain the reason for a block at the time than it is to explain a block well after the event. When implementing a block, a number of '']'' block reasons are available in a ]; other or additional reasons can also be added. Users can be notified of blocks and block reasons using a number of convenient template messages—see ] and ]." I use a Twinkle dropdown and it is quicker than writing out a reason, which probably gives the vandal less satisfaction. Not all administrators leave a message when blocking an obvious vandalism-only account. Regards and keep up the good work. ] (]) 23:52, 11 November 2015 (UTC)

{{ivmbox|1=Hello, Samir. This message is intended to notify administrators of important changes to the protection policy.

] (also known as "30/500 protection") is a new level of page protection that only allows edits from accounts at least 30 days old and with 500 edits. The automatically assigned ] was created for this purpose. The protection level was created following ] with the primary intention of enforcing various arbitration remedies that prohibited editors under the "30 days/500 edits" threshold to edit certain topic areas.

In July and August 2016, ] established consensus for community use of the new protection level. Administrators are authorized to apply extended confirmed protection to combat any form of disruption (e.g. vandalism, sock puppetry, edit warring, etc.) on any topic, subject to the following conditions:

Hi {{BASEPAGENAME}}.


Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.
A new user group, ], has been created in a move to greatly improve the standard of new page patrolling. The user right can be granted by any admin at ]. It is highly recommended that admins look beyond the simple numerical threshold and satisfy themselves that the candidates have the required skills of communication and an advanced knowledge of notability and deletion. Admins are automatically included in this user right.


Kind Regards,
It is anticipated that this user right will significantly reduce the work load of admins who patrol the performance of the patrollers. However,due to the complexity of the rollout, some rights may have been accorded that may later need to be withdrawn, so some help will still be needed to some extent when discovering wrongly applied deletion tags or inappropriate pages that escape the attention of less experienced reviewers, and above all, hasty and bitey tagging for maintenance. User warnings are available ] but very often a friendly custom message works best.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Allan S. Detsky, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Broadway (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Proposed deletion of Journal of the Canadian Association of Gastroenterology

Notice

The article Journal of the Canadian Association of Gastroenterology has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-notable journal. Not indexed in any selective databases, no independent sources. Does not meet WP:NJournals or WP:GNG.

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. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Administrators will no longer be autopatrolled

A recently closed Request for Comment (RFC) reached consensus to remove Autopatrolled from the administrator user group. You may, similarly as with Edit Filter Manager, choose to self-assign this permission to yourself.

How we will see unregistered users

Hi!

You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.

When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.

Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.

If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.

We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.

Thank you. /Johan (WMF)

New administrator activity requirement

The administrator policy has been updated with new activity requirements following a successful Request for Comment.

Beginning January 1, 2023, administrators who meet one or both of the following criteria may be desysopped for inactivity if they have:

  1. Made neither edits nor administrative actions for at least a 12-month period OR
  2. Made fewer than 100 edits over a 60-month period

Administrators at risk for being desysopped under these criteria will continue to be notified ahead of time. Thank you for your continued work.
