:Wow, dude. Me and IJBall go way back, I personally think he was a little too harsh on me on our first encounter, but reasonable. I find it really out of character for a mature person like this guy to be blocked for edit warring, especially an Admin but here we are. It's unexpected that he would want to block himself forever too. I guess he got tired of Misplaced Pages and wants to focus on his personal life which is understandable. Can't deny he's helped this website though in more ways than one. ] (]) 11:10, 3 June 2024 (UTC) | :Wow, dude.

List of films based on television programs
Pinging Geraldo Perez – this is more a reminder to myself than to you, Geraldo: but the WP:SCOPE of List of films based on television programs looks like it needs to be (massively?) narrowed. Right now it's including a bunch of what are basically TV movies in the list (including some TV movies that basically aired as episodes of these series – e.g. I just removed Shake It Up: Made In Japan which should not have been included under any circumstances!). That list should be narrowed to just theatrically-released films that are based on TV series. FWIW. (And, again, this is more a reminder to myself...) --IJBall (contribs • talk) 23:15, 21 March 2017 (UTC)
- See also: List of television spin-offs to do the same. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 03:27, 18 June 2017 (UTC)
- And: Lists of actors by television series is another cleanup job... --IJBall (contribs • talk) 01:18, 10 July 2017 (UTC)
New Pages Patrol newsletter June 2023
Hello IJBall,
Backlog
Redirect drive: In response to an unusually high redirect backlog, we held a redirect backlog drive in May. The drive completed with 23851 reviews done in total, bringing the redirect backlog to 0 (momentarily). Congratulations to Hey man im josh who led with a staggering 4316 points, followed by Meena and Greyzxq with 2868 and 2546 points respectively. See this page for more details. The redirect queue is steadily rising again and is steadily approaching 4,000. Please continue to help out, even if it's only for a few or even one review a day.
Redirect autopatrol: All administrators without autopatrol have now been added to the redirect autopatrol list. If you see any users who consistently create significant amounts of good quality redirects, consider requesting redirect autopatrol for them here.
WMF work on PageTriage: The WMF Moderator Tools team, consisting of Sam, Jason and Susana, and also some patches from Jon, has been hard at work updating PageTriage. They are focusing their efforts on modernising the extension's code rather than on bug fixes or new features, though some user-facing work will be prioritised. This will help make sure that this extension is not deprecated, and is easier to work on in the future. In the next month or so, we will have an opt-in beta test where new page patrollers can help test the rewrite of Special:NewPagesFeed, to help find bugs. We will post more details at WT:NPPR when we are ready for beta testers.
Articles for Creation (AFC): All new page reviewers are now automatically approved for Articles for Creation draft reviewing (you do not need to apply at WT:AFCP like was required previously). To install the AFC helper script, visit Special:Preferences, visit the Gadgets tab, tick "Yet Another AFC Helper Script", then click "Save". To find drafts to review, visit Special:NewPagesFeed, and at the top left, tick "Articles for Creation". To review a draft, visit a submitted draft, click on the "More" menu, then click "Review (AFCH)". You can also comment on and submit drafts that are unsubmitted using the script.
You can review the AFC workflow at WP:AFCR. It is up to you if you also want to mark your AFC accepts as NPP reviewed (this is allowed but optional, depends if you would like a second set of eyes on your accept). Don't forget that draftspace is optional, so moves of drafts to mainspace (even if they are not ready) should not be reverted, except possibly if there is conflict of interest.
Pro tip: Did you know that visual artists such as painters have their own SNG? The most common part of this "creative professionals" criteria that applies to artists is WP:ARTIST 4b (solo exhibition, not group exhibition, at a major museum) or 4d (being represented within the permanent collections of two museums).

- @Daniel Case: Please up that to an WP:INDEF. This is a self-request. Thanks. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 04:34, 5 July 2023 (UTC)
- Done Daniel Case (talk) 04:37, 5 July 2023 (UTC)
- User:IJBall, I hope you will reconsider your apparent decision to retire after the dust settles. EdJohnston (talk) 21:08, 5 July 2023 (UTC)
- Seconded. ButlerBlog (talk) 15:11, 10 July 2023 (UTC)

- I don't know anything about that edit war, or any other discussions, but I agree with Ed. I hope you reconsider your decision, and hope you come back. —usernamekiran (talk) 09:53, 6 July 2023 (UTC)
- I just realised that you've self-requested a block. I too hope that you will reconsider your decision. —CX Zoom 14:48, 8 July 2023 (UTC)
What?
What is going on, IJBall? Why would you request an indefinite block? I hope that this request was just said in a moment of frustration and you put in an unblock request when your mood changes. We need you here. Liz 04:02, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
- I would ask the same thing. IJBall is a valuable resource to the Television project (and by extension, the Westerns project. What's up with self-imposing an indef? I can't see any reason for that. ButlerBlog (talk) 15:11, 10 July 2023 (UTC)
- Indeed, IJBall, I don't think we've particularly interacted, but I've seen you around, and you do good work, all the more so for the total lack of drama. Hope you reconsider this choice, on your own terms of course. SN54129 15:18, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
