Undeleting revisions of Misplaced Pages is not

Hello. The redirect page was re-created last year. May you undelete the revisions then, which were deleted per RfD? --George Ho (talk) 18:36, 12 April 2017 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

December's Fall

Hi - I noticed the blanking of the recently created page, December's Fall, which you reverted a few moments before I was about to. However, I then spotted that the editor who blanked it was also the article's creator, and who had just had the page turned down under WP:AFC by @SwisterTwister:. With a couple of referenced added prior to its blanking, the band still doesn't seem to meet notability criteria as far as I can see. So I was wondering whether this was a cynical attempt by the page creator to ensure its retention, or alternatively a genuine attempt to blank and remove the page. I'm not sure how to proceed with this, so thought I'd flag it for more experienced editors to consider. Regards. Nick Moyes (talk) 19:45, 1 May 2017 (UTC)

As the current page shows, it's been speedy deletion nominated and it fits the criteria. SwisterTwister talk 00:46, 2 May 2017 (UTC)

Patrolling recent changes

Being a newer editor, I only just heard about the ability to patrol recent changes, and thought I'd give it a try. But— dang it— you're too fast! That's a good thing, of course. I'm glad we've got editors like you around. Liam Gibson (talk) 16:59, 3 May 2017 (UTC)

Response to one of "my" edits

Hello, you sent me a message recently about one of my edits that I made, and it seems like I had "edited" a page on the Origins of Albanians. However, I do not remember ever making an edit, nor have I made an edit ever (as far as I know). Maybe you can shed some light on the situation? 19:25, 23 May 2017 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.106.209.238 (talk)

ArbCom 2019 special circular

Administrators must secure their accounts

The Arbitration Committee may require a new RfA if your account is compromised.

Use strong, unique passwords for your Misplaced Pages account and associated email
Change your password now if your Misplaced Pages account password or email password is reused on another website, exposed, or weak
Enable two-factor authentication now for improved security

View additional information

Why have I received this message?: All administrators are receiving it.

What prompted you to send this message?: Recently, several Misplaced Pages admin accounts were compromised. The admin accounts were desysopped on an emergency basis. In the past, the Committee often resysopped admin accounts as a matter of course once the admin was back in control of their account. The committee has updated its guidelines. Admins may now be required to undergo a fresh Request for Adminship (RfA) after losing control of their account.

What do I need to do?

Only to follow the instructions in this message.

Check that your password is unique (not reused across sites).
Check that your password is strong (not simple or guessable).
Enable Two-factor authentication (2FA), if you can, to create a second hurdle for attackers.

How can I find out more about two-factor authentication (2FA)?: You can find out more about 2FA at m:2FA.

This message was sent to all administrators following a recent motion. Thank you for your attention. For the Arbitration Committee, Cameron11598 02:35, 4 May 2019 (UTC) Template:Z152

Administrator account security (Correction to Arbcom 2019 special circular)

ArbCom would like to apologise and correct our previous mass message in light of the response from the community.

Since November 2018, six administrator accounts have been compromised and temporarily desysopped. In an effort to help improve account security, our intention was to remind administrators of existing policies on account security — that they are required to "have strong passwords and follow appropriate personal security practices." We have updated our procedures to ensure that we enforce these policies more strictly in the future. The policies themselves have not changed. In particular, two-factor authentication remains an optional means of adding extra security to your account. The choice not to enable 2FA will not be considered when deciding to restore sysop privileges to administrator accounts that were compromised.

We are sorry for the wording of our previous message, which did not accurately convey this, and deeply regret the tone in which it was delivered.

For the Arbitration Committee, -Cameron11598 21:03, 4 May 2019 (UTC) Template:Z83
