Misplaced Pages

Latest revision as of 23:01, 7 April 2024

This user may have left Misplaced Pages. Ron Ritzman has not edited Misplaced Pages since October 2021. As a result, any requests made here may not receive a response. If you are seeking assistance, you may need to approach someone else.

This user is busy in real life and may not respond swiftly to queries.Note to other administrators. You are free to respond to queries on any of my previous administrative actions on my behalf. This includes reopening/overturning AFD closes.

Note to administrators. You are free to undo any of my administrative actions once. I will not consider it wheel warring if you have a good reason. Note to all editors. 75% of you are probably better editors then I am. If you disagree with an edit I make, feel free to revert and discuss. If I'm uncivil or otherwise violating a policy/guideline then let me know. (but please don't use a template aside from this one )

Request for undeletion

@Ron Ritzman: Hey, I am just writing in regards to the article Justin Frazier. They won't let me undelete the article on the request page so I am just writing you here. I am well versed with the MMA notability requirements and this subject fits the current criteria for notability. Thanks in advance HeinzMaster (talk) 16:20, 24 January 2021 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Joe mama

Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages, such as Joe mama, to Misplaced Pages. Doing so is considered vandalism and is prohibited. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Under section G3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, the page has been nominated for deletion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines. 5a5ha seven (talk | contribs) 21:45, 23 March 2021 (UTC)

Administrators will no longer be autopatrolled

A recently closed Request for Comment (RFC) reached consensus to remove Autopatrolled from the administrator user group. You may, similarly as with Edit Filter Manager, choose to self-assign this permission to yourself. This will be implemented the week of December 13th, but if you wish to self-assign you may do so now. To find out when the change has gone live or if you have any questions please visit the Administrator's Noticeboard. 20:06, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

How we will see unregistered users

Hi!

You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.

When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.

Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.

If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.

We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.

Thank you. /Johan (WMF)

New administrator activity requirement

The administrator policy has been updated with new activity requirements following a successful Request for Comment.

Beginning January 1, 2023, administrators who meet one or both of the following criteria may be desysopped for inactivity if they have:

1. Made neither edits nor administrative actions for at least a 12-month period OR
2. Made fewer than 100 edits over a 60-month period

Administrators at risk for being desysopped under these criteria will continue to be notified ahead of time. Thank you for your continued work.

Hyatt Regency Birmingham 2007 deletion discussion

This discussion appeared to have ended in delete as called by User JoshuaZ. Why did you mark it as "Keep" on the talk page in 2009? Was there another deletion discussion later over the resurrected page? I am not disputing your good faith in handling this at the time, but something clearly went awry which does need disentangling.Romomusicfan (talk) 09:19, 16 June 2022 (UTC)

Pending suspension of administrative permissions due to inactivity

Established policy provides for removal of the administrative permissions of users who have not made any edits or logged actions in the preceding twelve months. Because you have been inactive, your administrative permissions will be removed if you do not return to activity within the next month.

Inactive administrators are encouraged to rejoin the project in earnest rather than to make token edits to avoid loss of administrative permissions. Resources and support for reengaging with the project are available at Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Editor Retention/administrators. If you do not intend to rejoin the project in the foreseeable future, please consider voluntarily resigning your administrative permissions by making a request at the bureaucrats' noticeboard.
