Edit summary
Hi, about a recent vandal IP that you blocked. Can this ES be purged (which used a highly offensive slur against me). Thanks. Gotitbro (talk) 07:01, 9 November 2024 (UTC)
Political positions of JD Vance
Hi. As an uninvolved admin, can you ECP this page under CTOP as well? JD Vance#Political positions draws from it, and vandalism of a Nazi flag on the subarticle showed up on the main one. – Muboshgu (talk) 20:35, 9 November 2024 (UTC)
Weird question
If you're not too busy with admin-ing, I'd like to ask you if you'd spare a minute to look over an article I've recently been improving with hopes of placing it in front of the next good article reviewer; Minecraft: The Story of Mojang. Recently, I've been asking editors whom I am relatively familiar with to look at stuff, so I thought, "hey, maybe I pester this one admin who I run into from time to time to once over my pet project" that I started working on maybe a month ago.
Also, if you're still reading this on November 11, happy Veterans Day, and otherwise, thank you for being that admin who I run into literally everywhere in contentious topics who helps make order of things. Truly, your work is appreciated! BarntToust 02:15, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
- @BarntToust With the very large caveat that I know absolutely nothing about Minecraft, I will try and have a look when I have a few minutes. Thanks for the kind words. -Ad Orientem (talk) 02:51, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
- @Ad Orientem Hey, perfect pre-test; see if someone who isn't familiar with Minecraft can skim through and not be absolutely baffled by the article. You're just the sort of disinterested fellow I was looking for, actually! Thanks all again. BarntToust 13:32, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
- @BarntToust Ok, I've taken a look and my impression is that this is a solid article. It's well written with links wherever someone might need something to be explained in more detail and the referencing is excellent. Honestly I am having a hard time finding anything to nit pick over. I think I saw a couple sentences in succession that started with the same word, "the" or "they." Good job. -Ad Orientem (talk) 18:19, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for finding the time, and thank you for your appraisal! I'll look at the repetition of "the/they". Have a great one. BarntToust 18:49, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

Request
Reduction in protection level for autoconfirmed users in article Pam Bondi. Contrde (talk) 02:31, 22 November 2024 (UTC)
- Not done @Contrde Sorry but I have to decline your request. This is obviously going to be a controversial nominee that falls firmly within the realm of WP:CTOP American Politics. Only experienced editors should be able to edit this article directly. Please feel free to make any suggestions for improvement on the article's talk page. Best regards... -Ad Orientem (talk) 02:50, 22 November 2024 (UTC)
Target of redirect SHMU
Hi,
I accepted Draft:SHMU in AFC, and the redirect in the name SHMU had to be deleted first so I could move the accepted AFC submission. Can you tell me what was the target of the redirect (that was deleted)? I'm trying to add more links to the article. Thanks! Myrealnamm (💬Let's talk · 📜My work) 20:00, 23 November 2024 (UTC)
- Hi Myrealnamm. The original SMHU was a redirect to Media in Aberdeen#Local radio. -Ad Orientem (talk) 20:19, 23 November 2024 (UTC)
