    You may or may not find this one interesting. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 13:29, 7 May 2022 (UTC)

    Indeed, but I'll stay out of it. :-)--Jimbo Wales (talk) 12:10, 9 May 2022 (UTC)
    Disgustingly sensible. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 12:36, 9 May 2022 (UTC)

    Mobile App

    Is there a mobile app for Misplaced Pages? Baudshaw (talk) 13:55, 10 May 2022 (UTC)

    Looks like there is some info at Help:Mobile access. ValarianB (talk) 14:26, 10 May 2022 (UTC)

    Second Chance on Fandom

    User really in wrong place, asking the wrong person, as others have explained. Nothing further for us to do here!--Jimbo Wales (talk) 11:15, 12 May 2022 (UTC)

    Jimbo I am 2021bss aka Bradley Snodgrass I am asking because I want a second chance on Fandom because I will not harass other users and not to violate the Terms of Use. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2021bss (talk • contribs) 20:22, 10 May 2022 (UTC)

    I'm not really the right person to ask about that, nor is this the right place.--Jimbo Wales (talk) 10:38, 11 May 2022 (UTC)
    A user from Fandom called Dinosaurs20 told me to go on Misplaced Pages to apologize so I can edit on Fandom again without harassing others and violating the Terms of Use. 2021bss (talk) 12:52, 11 May 2022 (UTC)
    I'm afraid that Dinosaurs20 was mistaken. You need to appeal to the admin who blocked you. Or you can report to Fandom, but they would rarely get directly involved, see .--Jimbo Wales (talk) 14:29, 11 May 2022 (UTC)
    I reported to them about you telling me that I need to appeal to the admin of who was the one who blocked me. 2021bss (talk) 15:27, 11 May 2022 (UTC)
    However when I try to make a request to them they don't answer. 2021bss (talk) 15:31, 11 May 2022 (UTC)
    I tried to apologize to them but they said I ban evaded too many times. They not won't respond to my tickets anymore. 2021bss (talk) 18:14, 11 May 2022 (UTC)
    I think you've received the only answer that can be given. Mr. Wales has no control over the doings within Fandom. ValarianB (talk) 18:23, 11 May 2022 (UTC)
    I tried to do what he told me to do can you situate it ValarianB? 2021bss (talk) 23:57, 11 May 2022 (UTC)
    It sounds like you wasted all your second chances with things like block evasion, and nobody on that wiki is willing to deal with you anymore because you have shown yourself not to be trustworthy. That's their call, not ours here in Misplaced Pages. --Orange Mike | Talk 00:12, 12 May 2022 (UTC)
    To make this more clear, 2021bss, Fandom and Misplaced Pages are not related, and the admins at Fandom wanted to get rid of you so lied and sent you here (or, maybe some user who also doesn't know how Fandom works suggested you contact Wikia, another name for the parent company Fandom, not that doing so would help you). You're not able to get another chance there if they're sending you here. Maybe you could try editing Misplaced Pages, if you follow the rules. Kingsif (talk) 00:20, 12 May 2022 (UTC)

    Help with a long-term problem user

    Hi, Jimbo. There is a user who, for over a decade now, has uploaded drawings and digital artwork to Commons that depict young girls showing their underwear, showering, being spanked, or exposing themselves in other ways. This user then adds the images to various language Wikipedias. This image, for example, is used on the Dutch language Misplaced Pages article about simulated or "virtual" child pornography, but they are often placed on more innocent articles. Even when the user uploads images taken from old comics, they have often been altered from the original. In this example the colors have been changed, perhaps to highlight the child's underwear.

    This user has had a number of different accounts, but they often include the pseudonym "Simon Kirby" or the the fictitious company "Landmark comics" in the descriptions. A partial list of accounts can be found in Commons:Requests for checkuser/Case/Midnight68, but it does not include their current account User:JasonGlennHuntley or past accounts User:BlackshadeNine and User:SimonJKirby. I imagine that this is a case that Trust & Safety might want to get involved with, but I am less interested in blocking this user's current accounts than I am in getting images like this removed from Commons. There was a Commons deletion discussion in 2010 which got rid of some of these images, but the user just created a new account and carried on. Can you help at all? B. disruptus (talk) 21:57, 16 May 2022 (UTC)

    There are many images uploaded by this user that are questionable, but I would like to highlight File:FemaleGenitalia000.png and its variant File:FemaleGenitalia002.png. These images appear on 9 Misplaced Pages articles by my count. They have almost certainly been added to those articles by the user in question. I am not a physician, but I can tell you that this is not a depiction of the genitalia of an adult woman. B. disruptus (talk) 23:18, 16 May 2022 (UTC)
