Adoption
Hi Swarm. I have asked you 4.5 years ago if you could adopt me, and you graciously answered with "Yeah, I'd be happy to adopt you!" I doubt that you would remember me because I deliberately did not do editing for years to gain back my peace of mind and confidence from users such as Howard the duck that are seemingly micromanaging my edits and rejecting them. Can you please guide me on how proper editing works? or maybe I can do it on another platform aside from Misplaced Pages that I'm not aware of. I wanted to create and edit sports wikis again, but I'm somehow bummed that most of my updates are candidates for deletion and reverting back to the previous version. I apologize that I was out for a long time. Thank you in advance! elivic (talk) elivic (talk) 12:01, 29 October 2023 (UTC)

Administrators' newsletter – December 2023
News and updates for administrators from the past month (November 2023).
- Following a talk page discussion, the Administrators' accountability policy has been updated to note that while it is considered best practice for administrators to have notifications (pings) enabled, this is not mandatory. Administrators who do not use notifications are now strongly encouraged to indicate this on their user page.
- Following a motion, the Extended Confirmed Restriction has been amended, removing the allowance for non-extended-confirmed editors to post constructive comments on the "Talk:" namespace. Now, non-extended-confirmed editors may use the "Talk:" namespace solely to make edit requests related to articles within the topic area, provided that their actions are not disruptive.
- The Arbitration Committee has announced a call for Checkusers and Oversighters, stating that it will currently be accepting applications for CheckUser and/or Oversight permissions at any point in the year.
- Eligible users are invited to vote on candidates for the Arbitration Committee until 23:59 December 11, 2023 (UTC). Candidate statements can be seen here.

Invitation to participate in a research
Hello,
The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Misplaced Pages, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.
You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.
The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .
Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.
Kind Regards,
