Help us improve wikimeets by filling in the UK Wikimeet survey!

Hello! I'm running a survey to identify the best way to notify Wikimedians about upcoming UK wikimeets (informal, in-person social meetings of Wikimedians), and to see if we can improve UK wikimeets to make them accessible and attractive to more editors and readers. All questions are optional, and it will take about 10 minutes to complete. Please fill it in at:

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Misplaced Pages arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Notification of pending suspension of administrative permissions due to inactivity

Following a community discussion in June 2011, consensus was reached to provisionally suspend the administrative permissions of users who have been inactive for one year (i.e. administrators who have not made any edits or logged actions in more than one year). As a result of this discussion, your administrative permissions will be removed pending your return if you do not return to activity within the next month. If you wish to have these permissions reinstated should this occur, please post to the Misplaced Pages:Bureaucrats' noticeboard and the userright will be restored per the re-sysopping process (i.e. as long as the attending bureaucrats are reasonably satisfied that your account has not been compromised, that your inactivity did not have the effect of evading scrutiny of any actions which might have led to sanctions, and that you have not been inactive for a three-year period of time). If you remain inactive for a three-year period of time, including the present year you have been inactive, you will need to request reinstatement at WP:RFA. This removal of access is procedural only, and not intended to reflect negatively upon you in any way. We wish you the best in future endeavors, and thank you for your past administrative efforts.

Suspension of administrative permissions due to inactivity

Your inactive bot(s)

Hello Werdna. We currently show that you are the operator on file for at least one bot account that appears to be inactive. Please see the discussion and list of bots here: Misplaced Pages:Bot owners' noticeboard#Inactive bots over 5 years. If you are no longer operating your bot, no action is required - your bot will be marked as retired and have the bot flag removed. Should your bot be retired and you wish to revive it in the future, please request bot authorization at WP:BRFA. If you are still in control of your bot (including knowing its hopefully strong password) and wish to maintain the bot flag, please sign the table on the linked discussion. Thank you, — xaosflux 14:41, 26 November 2016 (UTC)

Stig Harder, Fashion Net & Lumiere

Hey Werdna,

Could you help restore the articles for FASHION NET at https://en.wikipedia.org/Fashion_Net, Lumiere at https://en.wikipedia.org/Lumiere_(magazine) and my own at https://en.wikipedia.org/Stig_Harder? I read the reason was there weren't enough references online to establish notability.

I got in touch with Justlettersandnumbers and she/he informed me I could request a WP:deletion review with the reason "significant new information has come to light since a deletion that would justify recreating the deleted page." At the Deletion Review article, I read I should talk to the closing administrator first.

Here are several references from print publications back when the Internet was in its infancy:

Also, an old video capture from BBC Television on Fashion Net: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9F5FgRZhSik

The archived page for Cooper Hewitt's "Mixing Messages" exhibition in 1996-1997 where Lumiere was included is at:

The article itself is missing from the archive, but my staff back then did a screenshot: https://www.stigharder.com/media/cooper-hewitt-1997.jpg

Thank you so much.

Kind regards,

A barnstar for you!

The Teamwork Barnstar

Can you please help me? This place is just a giant maze of complicated webs and every day I am getting my IP address blocked, and I really do not know why. I genuinely just want to help update classical musicians' bios and do good. It's so frustrating and I just don't know what to do or where to go for help. Can you please help me? Thank you Werdna.
