== List of current world boxing champions ==

Hello, east718, how are things? Sorry bothering you, but there's a problem on the above-mentioned list with somebody always reverting things like Rigoberto Álvarez, who is the WBA's interim champ at 154 lb., which you can see on the latest rankings from last Thursday, see: http://wbanews.com/artman/uploads/1/WBA_09-10_1.PDF , and he's also constantly putting in wrong dates and so on... Could you have a look at the history of the list and maybe give him a first warning? I don't really like to ask you, but you're the only mod I know... ;-)

== Image on Wiki: Racing UK ==

Hi There,

The image you are using on our page for Racing UK is out of date. Can you please remove it?
Also, the web address is wrong, it is actually www.racinguk.com, not racinguk.tv
Finally, we are not in any way associated with the Racing Post, so can you remove that reference too?

If you have any questions do not hesitate getting back in touch

Many thanks,

== List of current world boxing champions ==

Hello, east718! Can you please have a look at the discussion page of the mentioned site, under point number 4, there are people who do not want the "nb" system anymore that you created a few years back. I'm absolutely 100% pro this system for the list, as nowadays, everybody is a "Super" or "Unified" or "Interim" champion, I think it would be too much to insert it in every boxer's case, the (featured) list would be overloaded... I think people are now used to our system, why change a "winning team"?

== Your deletion of the Jolly Roger's Cookbook article, some time in 2007... ==

I can't find the contents of the article you have delted but I can read that you found it to be an advertisment for a textfile...

I can assure you that the text file that comes up at http://www.textfiles.com/anarchy/JOLLYROGER/ is an exact copy of the dog eared, dot matrix printed, tractor feed paper copy I received in '88.

That textfile collection is as legendary as The Anarchist's Cookbook or any other subversive intruction manual from the early '80s and thus deserves a mention on your Wiki. <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding ] comment added by ] (]) 08:52, 2 January 2011 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

:*I am not East718 but I found your question interesting.
:*An archive of the article can be found at:
:http://web.archive.org/web/20071118102602/http://en.wikipedia.org/Jolly_Roger%27s_Cookbook
:*Some documentation of the book's fame or notoriety may increase the chances of maintaining an article at Misplaced Pages: the archived version neither cites any ] nor asserts ] according to the community's often strict standards. See also ].
::* Given the underground, countercultural, BBS-based nature of the beast, I'm having trouble thinking of ways in which this could even be possible to satisfy, other than raising a consensus of diverse contributors (does WP even allow for that?). There might not be any documentary evidence to be ''had'' - the existence and legend of the JRCB is one of the closer things to an oral history (for want of a better description) possessed by the transitional generation of the early information age. No-one who was involved with its spread particularly WANTED there to be any trace of such, after all, or to acknowledge its existence or their possession of it in a public forum.
::: It existed in computer-space, on discs and on dial-up servers, during a period of great change and upheaval in terms of platforms, storage formats, communications methods, general culture, etc, and when the world was far less connected than it is now. There may be enough people now who still have a computer from 10 years ago, and all their files on a memory stick bought at the same time that will still work just dandy on a modern machine (and that old computer may still be able to access and use this site); but, the same could not be said in 1997 (let alone 2007!) of systems, storage media, or online resources from 1987, which would be variously hideously and unusably out of date, so dated as to be unreadable in modern machines (or indeed, suffering physical bit-rot), or long dead and gone and no longer connected to an operating phone line, having been superceded by the WWW or just seeing their owners growing up, moving house, getting married, being arrested, dying, etc, with no concept of things existing "in the cloud", and their continued survival entirely dependent on some random having taken a copy. It was never compiled into a book or journal, never printed, never got an ISBN, never went into the Congressional Library (quite obviously!). And personal computers weren't quite as widespread a thing as they are now, still being a bit of a geek's preserve, and any kind of remote, telephonic connection far, far moreso (no facebook, no wikipedia, etc... not even tumblr - nowhere for teenage girls to log onto with their macbooks and iphones to squee over their pop idols).
::: That there are yet people here from around the world (even if only a few, so far - given that, as the wikipedia article was deleted 7 years ago, they have to run across it by chance on this particular talk page...) debating it the better part of 30 years after it was first written must be a mark of some kind of historical worth? Before the rest of us who know anything about it ourselves die, or at least the memory fades so much that our accounts become gradually less reliable and useful if anyone should suddenly take it upon themselves to grab a videocamera and make an arthouse documentary film that would validate all this to the standards being demanded?
::: All I can say is that it was definitely well known in my early years at secondary school, in the middle of suburban England, before anyone outside of university research departments had even heard of the internet. To make it from the American gen-X phreaker scene to being quietly passed around amongst close friends, on unlabelled DSDD floppies in that parochial schoolyard, is a heck of an achievement for something with no noteriety at all. I'd contend there are probably a lot of published books (and, moreover, video games) that have small side-note articles here that garnered less attention than the JR did at the time.
::: Also, as an aside, I'm heartened to see it being referred to in this way, as when I later went to look for it on the internet - having eventually got access to it, and having lost my old disc-based, never-printed copy of the "book" - it was only ever referred to as the ''Anarchist's'' Cookbook, with the piratical epithet having gone missing along the way.
::: And, PS: "advertisement for a textfile" ... what, really? Take a moment and think about the absurdity of that argument. How do you "advertise" a now-historical, not commercially published text, or gain anything from its greater publicity? ] (]) 22:05, 8 March 2014 (UTC)

== MSU Interview ==

Dear East718,

My name is Jonathan Obar ], I'm a professor in the College of Communication Arts and Sciences at Michigan State University and a Teaching Fellow with the Wikimedia Foundation's Education Program. This semester I've been running a little experiment at MSU, a class where we teach students about becoming Misplaced Pages administrators. Not a lot is known about your community, and our students (who are fascinated by wiki-culture by the way!) want to learn how you do what you do, and why you do it. A while back I proposed this idea (the class) to the community], where it was met mainly with positive feedback. Anyhow, I'd like my students to speak with a few administrators to get a sense of admin experiences, training, motivations, likes, dislikes, etc. We were wondering if you'd be interested in speaking with one of our students.


So a few things about the interviews:
* Interviews will last between 15 and 30 minutes.
* Interviews can be conducted over skype (preferred), IRC or email. (You choose the form of communication based upon your comfort level, time, etc.)
* All interviews will be completely anonymous, meaning that you (real name and/or pseudonym) will never be identified in any of our materials, unless you give the interviewer permission to do so.
* All interviews will be completely voluntary. You are under no obligation to say yes to an interview, and can say no and stop or leave the interview at any time.
* The entire interview process is being overseen by MSU's institutional review board (ethics review). This means that all questions have been approved by the university and all students have been trained how to conduct interviews ethically and properly.


Bottom line is that we really need your help, and would really appreciate the opportunity to speak with you. If interested, please send me an email at obar@msu.edu (to maintain anonymity) and I will add your name to my offline contact list. If you feel comfortable doing so, you can post your name] instead.

If you have questions or concerns at any time, feel free to email me at obar@msu.edu. I will be more than happy to speak with you.

Thanks in advance for your help. We have a lot to learn from you.

A tag has been placed on ] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under ], because the article or image appears to be a clear ] infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from not the current logo so not used for identification, no third party commentary on logo, fails WP:FAIR. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of ''information'', but not as a source of ''sentences''. This part is crucial: ''say it in your own words''. Misplaced Pages takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators '''will be ]'''.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Misplaced Pages to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you ''must'' verify that externally by one of the processes explained at ].

A tag has been placed on ] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under ], because the article or image appears to be a clear ] infringement.

== Denise Milani ==

Hi, I have been recently researching the ] case on Misplaced Pages, and saw that her article was deleted/re-created countless of times. (I read most of the discussions, including three AfD's and several heated threads on admin's noticeboard.) At that time, the deletion might have been reasonable, due to the lack of reliable sourcing. However, I noticed that the situation has changed, because in 2012 and 2013 she was covered by ] (), ] (), ] (), and ] (). In addition, she has been covered by ] (, ), ] (), Mandatory (), and MadeMan (). I think this is enough evidence to establish her notability, so I kindly request the removal of protection from her article.

I have left the same message at ]'s talk page, but since you were the original protecting editor of the article, he referred me to you. Thanks. --''']''' ] 22:53, 23 August 2014 (UTC)

The title article has over 75 edits, about half of which are full or partial reversions in the 24 hours since protection was lifted. In declining a request by several editors to extend protection, Admin East718 said s/he would instead block those engaged in edit warring.

I appreciate that East is working as a volunteer and do not mean to substitute my judgement for his/hers, but am confused to now find a note on his/her page that s/he is away from the Wiki for an extended time. The protection worked very well to calm an ugly situation, and was actually supported by most of the page editors. If reprotection is deemed inappropriate, could someone at least drop by and issue some warnings? Thank you ] (]) 20:19, 3 December 2014 (UTC)

:::Most of the edit warring was before I handled the RFPP request, and only one person has made more than one revert since then. Additionally, the pace of editing on the article has slowed down considerably (15 in the past 16 hours) and most of the recent edits appear to be gnomish in nature, so I don't really see a need to protect the article.

== Invitation to subscribe to the edit filter mailing list ==

Hi, as a user in the ''edit filter manager'' user group we wanted to let you know about the new ] mailing list. As part of our recent efforts to improve the use of edit filters on the English Misplaced Pages it has been established as a venue for internal discussion by edit filter managers regarding private filters (those only viewable by administrators and edit filter managers) and also as a means by which non-admins can ask questions about hidden filters that ] to discuss on-wiki. As an edit filter manager we encourage you to subscribe; the more users we have in the mailing list the more useful it will be to the community. If you subscribe we will send a short email to you through Misplaced Pages to confirm your subscription, but let us know if you'd prefer another method of verification. I'd also like to take the opportunity to invite you to contribute to the proposed guideline for edit filter use at ] and the associated talk page. Thank you! ] (]) and <span style="font-family:sans-serif"><span style="font-weight:bold">] <sup>]</sup></span></span> 18:22, 9 September 2015 (UTC)

== Extended confirmed protection ==

{{ivmbox|1=Hello, East718. This message is intended to notify administrators of important changes to the protection policy.

] (also known as "30/500 protection") is a new level of page protection that only allows edits from accounts at least 30 days old and with 500 edits. The automatically assigned ] was created for this purpose. The protection level was created following ] with the primary intention of enforcing various arbitration remedies that prohibited editors under the "30 days/500 edits" threshold to edit certain topic areas.

In July and August 2016, ] established consensus for community use of the new protection level. Administrators are authorized to apply extended confirmed protection to combat any form of disruption (e.g. vandalism, sock puppetry, edit warring, etc.) on any topic, subject to the following conditions:
* '''Extended confirmed protection may only be used in cases where semi-protection has proven ineffective'''. It should not be used as a first resort.
* '''A bot will post a notification at ] of each use'''. MusikBot currently does this by updating ], which is transcluded onto the noticeboard.
Please review ] carefully before using this new level of protection on pages. Thank you. <br><small>This message was sent to the administrators' ]. To opt-out of future messages, please remove yourself from the list. 17:47, 23 September 2016 (UTC)</small> |2=Padlock-blue.svg}}

== A new user right for New Page Patrollers ==

Hi {{BASEPAGENAME}}.

A new user group, ], has been created in a move to greatly improve the standard of new page patrolling. The user right can be granted by any admin at ]. It is highly recommended that admins look beyond the simple numerical threshold and satisfy themselves that the candidates have the required skills of communication and an advanced knowledge of notability and deletion. Admins are automatically included in this user right.

It is anticipated that this user right will significantly reduce the work load of admins who patrol the performance of the patrollers. However,due to the complexity of the rollout, some rights may have been accorded that may later need to be withdrawn, so some help will still be needed to some extent when discovering wrongly applied deletion tags or inappropriate pages that escape the attention of less experienced reviewers, and above all, hasty and bitey tagging for maintenance. User warnings are available ] but very often a friendly custom message works best.

If you have any questions about this user right, don't hesitate to join us at ]. <small>''(Sent to all admins)''</small>.] (]) 13:46, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

==Just a Request==
This may be a rather unconventional request, given how long it's been since the said image was deleted, which was years before I joined Misplaced Pages, though not before I first ran into the page that contained the image.

The said image File:NefariousTropy.PNG was deleted in January 2008 and although I'm not requesting that the said image be restored, I was wondering if I would be able to find any sites that still had the image. ― <span style="font-family:'Constantia'; font-weight:bold; font-size:108%;">]</span> <span style="font-family:'Adobe Garamond Pro'; font-size:108%;">(] | ])</span> 07:39, 1 February 2017 (UTC)

On the last Sunday of every month, the Boardroom at hosts Action Equals History — a unique opportunity for New Yorkers to learn hands-on in a technology training/workshop session about the mechanics, practices and benefits of Misplaced Pages and the Wikimedia projects. This is an opportunity for all to gather, share and work collectively towards a more robust account of history.

For this month, we'll focus on Misplaced Pages casual editing, ways to use and develop ], building better ] tools for a variety of different thematic campaigns, and user-testing them with the community. Towards a goal of advancing these tools for wider use with diverse local groups.

''']''' is hosting the second annual Misplaced Pages Translatathon! At this event on '''Thursday evening and during the day Friday this week''', anyone from the public is invited to LaGuardia to join students, professors, and CUNY faculty in translating Misplaced Pages articles among any languages which attendees understand. Themes for this event include public health and the history of New York City.
New York City has a large immigrant population and great diversity of speakers of various languages. Among all schools in New York City, LaGuardia has the highest percentage of immigrant students, the highest percentage of students who speak a language other than English as their first language, and the greatest representation of language diversity. It is a strength of LaGuardia that it can present "Misplaced Pages translatathons", which are Misplaced Pages translation events.

ArbCom would like to apologise and correct our previous mass message in light of the response from the community.
== Article idea for Diplomatic missions in Houston==
After reading ], I would like some advice. I want to start an article about the diplomatic missions in Houston that lists consulate generals and their equivalents (Taipei TECO), but does NOT list honorary consulates. What else should I add to this article in order to make it worthy of Misplaced Pages? Surely someone wrote a history of diplomatic missions in Houston somewhere.


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 ] to "have strong passwords and ]." We have ] our procedures to ensure that we enforce these policies more strictly in the future. The policies themselves have not changed. In particular, ] 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.
I might start it soon, but it would not strictly be a list. It would also contain general information too. ] (]) 14:57, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
:Looks like you found one of my first AFD closes. :-) I'm not too knowledgeable about the topic so I can't judge the article's suitability, but if you're not listing the less notable honorary consulates, I guess it'll be OK.

Back in February you blocked ] with the summary ''"until assurances are made that malicious bots will not be used"''. Mitrebox, frustrated with the situation, evaded his block with some additional accounts. The latest account, ], is asking that this block be reviewed. See ]. His socking has been to evade blocks, and never to support himself in a discussion or to edit war. The indef. blocks he's received were given simply because he was blocked as Mitrebox. I think it would help the situation if you could review the ''original'' block, see if Mitrebox/AdultSwim/Lemmey have given you enough assurance regarding malicious bots. This original block is pretty much the only reason he's blocked now. -- ] 06:31, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

:Hey, Nawlin. That /18 range is currently hardblocked as part of an even bigger range (71.107.128.0/17). I've also title-blacklisted all the user talk pages in that range to prevent the edit summary vandalism that Grawp was using to trick administators into softblocking individual IPsion that range (which he'd then use accouts from). Also, those other 71.107 and 71.108 IPs you've been blocking aren't static: they're actually part of a very dynamic Verizon DSL range for SoCal.

Hey how are ya? Noticed your AGF on the 3RR report on Be Black Hole Sun. Did you notice he rv'd the page (his 5th for the day) after receiving his 3RR warning? Five previous blocks for 3RR, and generally just being a d*nk, in the past he is an editor who shouldn't have to be warned... I think anyways. But then again I am just an old Wiki-hardass. He has received umpteen WP:CIVIL warnings too. If the concern posted in the 3RR report is valid then he used his floating IP range to do another rv as well... also after receiving his 3RR warning. Can you do an old mate a favour and re-visit the last few days history on the page. BBHS has been editing warring with other people besides that old f*rt Wiki libs. :-). I think he needs an old fashion ] b*ll-busting if you ask me. But, then again I think 90% of Wiki editors could use that treatment every now and then :D. Have a nice day!

:Hey, Libs. If BBHS isn't edit warring anymore, there's really nothing that can be done... a warning would also be useless as they presumably already know 3RR (their previous blocks are testimony to that). I do agree though that any more edit warring will lead to some ''Casino''-style disciplinary action being taken... but I will just have to wait and watch. :D Also, if you want to check out the IP angle, I'm sure you know about ].

He had my sympathy until he laid on the praise mixed with the "don't get involved for your own good stuff." If you could just bring me up to speed so I can stop thinking about, I'd appreciate it.

:OK, begging pardon if I'm missing something really big (general fatigue would probably be to blame for that), but what exactly are you asking of me? If it's the relevant evidence, VengeancePrime was brought to my attention earlier, and I had them checked against VigilancePrime on a gut feeling.

You closed the discussion at ] and implemented a topic ban on Research editor for ''only'' the Satanic ritual abuse article and its talk page. I note, however, that Moreschi was proposing to ban Research Editor from related topics as well. It seems to me that this part of the proposal had consensus as well.

Why did you delete this? Just yesterday I put the image back up (after another user had removed it to replace it with a duplicate image he had uploaded). So it had only been a few hours.

Your offer to unblock the $20 professor is a sign of good customer service. I am willing to discuss with him about the $20 edits. I come totally unbiased as I have not looked at the $20 edits. May I suggest that he will be allowed completely free editing if he discusses the $20 edits with me first and comes to an agreement with me? I have much incentive to have him not edit poorly about the $20 bill because I don't want to have egg on my face. It would also eliminate any feeling that the Misplaced Pages establishment is trying to muzzle him.

== Thumbnail problems with enormous PNG images ==


{|style="background:#d5dceb; border:1px solid #6881b9; margin:0.5em; padding:0.5em;border-radius: 8px;"
Hi, East718. Another user has alerted me to the fact that huge PNG images (those having more than 12.5 million pixels) don't thumbnail properly in MediaWiki (for example, ]). In these cases ] shouldn't just naively replace an existing JPEG with a PNG in articles, because the thumbnails in the articles won't work. So perhaps 718 Bot could upload the PNG image and put the {{]}} tag on the JPEG description page just like it's doing now, but test the image dimensions before changing references to the JPEG in articles (they can be changed to the PNG later if the thumbnailing problem is ever fixed). Or maybe 718 Bot could rescale huge images down to 12.5 million pixels before uploading the PNG, so that thumbnails work (but that's also problematic, because the PNGs will then be of lower resolution than the original JPEGs). As a third possibility, maybe 718 Bot could just ignore images with such large dimensions. —] (]) 05:16, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

:Nice catch! - and this is why I love running my stuff in a live environment with all of its quirks and traps.

:Oh man, this one's a bit messy - it all depends which one of the many Congos Bunema's from. (And why doesn't he have an article?!) For the DRC, it's "COD," and for the Congo, it's "COG" or "CGO." (I think there's another Congo, but it got dissolved way back.) I'd be really happy to see Bunema win - he's kind of laid really low while putting in work before he wiped out Karmazin and Matthysse... but what I'm really excited about it Klitschko-Peter - let's hope Vitali doesn't pull a Grant Hill and break something heading to the ring! <small style="color:#999;white-space:nowrap">] // ] // ] // 18:37, 27 August 2008 (UTC)</small>
::Thanks, "COD" (in this case) is correct for Bunema. "COG" is the Republic of Congo with Brazzaville as capital and much smaller than the other one. If Bunema doesn't have an article page, I bet he's gonna have one as soon as he's going to be world champ, if so. I'm also excited to see Vitali crush Peter's bones... ;-) Cheers, ] (]) 13:07, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

Hey East718. A while back you put a block on ] for edit warring on the ] page. The gist was he kept re-adding a poor quality image(his own) that had been voted down on the talk page. He ignored consensus and Scarian blocked him again. He also used a series of dynamic IPs to keep re-inserting the blurry pic. Tonight another IP.. different range... re-added the pic again. Rather than tend with the IP... the addy will likely switch around.... rotten IPs... I was wondering... since you knew some of the background (especially since I just eloquently reminded you of it :-D )... could you put a prot on the page just for safety sake? Maybe the IP won't return? But based on previous edit war history from the IP/User... I wouldn't count on "calm" Have a nice day! ] 03:07, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

::''7:00pm - 8:00 pm online via (optional breakout rooms from 8:00-8:30)''
Hello East718. As someone who automatically deletes pages in ] without manually checking them, could I ask you to NOT delete talk pages or user pages of indefinitely blocked IP addresses. Thanks. -- ] <sup>]</sup> 12:44, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
:Talk pages of indefed users are often deleted as general cleanup. They are only preserved in cases of confirmed sockpuppetry. ]] 05:09, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
::Thanks for the response. IP addresses are not like users because they can change hands. Talk pages of indefinitely blocked IP addresses are kept for tracking purposes because they should generally not be indefinitely blocked and where they are blocked indefinitely the blocks should be reviewed periodically. See ] and ]. Like the sockpuppet templates, all the proxy templates etc contain the {{tl|do not delete}} marker. Unfortunately some of the blocking templates - even if the block is not indefinite - sometimes place the IP pages into ] which is the wrong place for them. It would be trivial for a deletion bot to check if the page belongs to an IP before considering deletion. -- ] <sup>]</sup> 08:58, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
:::Oh, good point. The IP didn't click. I'm just thinking indefed users! Yea, you're right. ]] 12:57, 17 September 2008 (UTC)

:I'm not really sure. I'm finding it a bit hard to believe that somebody's who's been blocked six times previously for revert-warring still doesn't understand what constitutes a revert. I'm ] that this can actually be the case, but then we're moving from a problem of possible disingenuity to one of competence. Either way, I feel that a block of some duration is still merited (although I always remain open to reducing it to a couple of days or lifting it entirely upon an assurance of more care to be taken while editing in the future). Lastly, if Boodlesthecat is being ganged upon, there is no reason to fight disruption with disruption. There is the option of reporting to ANI or a friendly administrator, perhaps starting an RFC on content, or if the pattern is sustained, conduct. Edit warring in response is the ''worst'' way to go about it. Perhaps you can give Boodlesthecat some advice on this - I think that they'd be more receptive of it coming from you, rather than the scrivener of criticism of their editing behavior on AN.<br />I agree with you that Piotrus hasn't been a saint through this. is certainly a problem, and the notion that one must be able to verify sources themselves that's presented ] is just bizarre. If Piotrus weren't an administrator, I'd consider warning them in some measure, but whatever resulted of it wouldn't stick for reasons which I don't like; reasons which are beyond my control.

:Jayjg, please. You are involved in that article, you're supporting Boody's in mainspace and talk, and when I and others've asked you to intervene and stop his incivility and edit warring you blame others for "discussing Boody". Please, try to mentor Boody, not encourage him. Mentoring him may yet turn him into a good editor, encouraging him in his disruptive behavior won't. As for block length, well, Boody's block edit history speaks for itself - up to and including the fact that he has challenged every block as unfair, and went straight back to edit warring and incivility as soon as it expired. Talk to him, and if he shows on his talk page some remorse and regret, sure, we can consider shortening his block. Doing it now would only encourage him and give him a sign that he has done nothing (or little) wrong. PS. I find your very bad faithed accusations here against me very much unfitting an administrator: my request for citations for perfectly in line with ]/]; I've asked for RfC on several forums, as advocated by our policies, and saying that I baited Boody into this... I'd highly recommend you read my essay on ] and think long and hard whether you should really be supporting Boody and spreading bad faithed slander about me. I have never complained about anything you've done - even through I find your unwavering support of incivil and edit warring Boody unbecoming of an administrator - and I'd really hate to see our relationship break down because of Boody. --<sub><span style="border:1px solid #228B22;padding:1px;">]|]</span></sub> 07:47, 8 October 2008 (UTC)
Umm, for the record I reverted the controversial material ONCE when I first noticed it several days ago and after Boodles reverted me, including "discuss it in talk first" in his/her edit summary, I have not reverted him, or Jayjg, or anyone else on that article. Instead, as s/he suggested, I have been discussing it on talk (to be precise, lest I get accused of bad faith here, again, there were some other edits in other portions of the article but my sense of it was that we worked it out). And yes, I did notice the article through the board Jayjg mentions above but so what? I occasionally look at it for articles that I think may be interesting. Prior to this I think I've co-edited or talked to Piotrus or had any kind of interaction with him, like, twice, both of those being back in something like 2005 or 2006 when I first joined Misplaced Pages. To imply - wait, no - TO STATE, that I engaged in any kind of edit warring on this article with Boodles or anyone else is false and dishonest. To accuse me of doing so because ... I don't know, I was supposedly following orders of the Grand Leader Piotrus or something is insulting. Additionally, while I've been following the discussion on the relevant article I haven't had time to spend on whatever side shows may be going on that are related to it and I wasn't even aware that Boodles was blocked (hence I have no opinion on the righteousness of her/his block or its length). Obviously Jayjg, whose edits and work I've seen around before and who I previously had a good impression of, owes me an apology. But since I'm here - since someone started talking about me - I may as well throw my two cents in and state that Jayj is obviously being dishonest here, whether he realizes it or not. Take that as a piece of "character witness testimony". Oh. And yes, again for the sake of full disclosure, I found this little piece of defamation through a message Piotrus left me a few minutes ago and I want to apologize ahead of time to user East718 if this isn't the proper space to correct this crap.] (]) 08:34, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

:Exactly how many places are editors going to go to smear my reputation? It's quite simple. Yes, Piotrus already mentioned the article some time back. And yes, I then did investigate the article, not because I am Piotrus' recruit but because it's been an area of study of mine for years.

== Block of User:Noroton ==


As this WikiWednesday is just the day before ], we will have an environmental focus.
Hi, I wonder if you would be good enough to revisit the length of Noroton's block, please? I agree that a block is merited but 1 week seems too long. I am also bothered that he has been blocked from editing his own talk page which would restrict him from appealing the block. I have had a look at the AN/I thread but that doesn't seem to provide a consensus for a long block. My suggestion would be to remove the restriction on talk page editing, it can go straight back if he abuses it, and reducing the block to, say, 36 hours. ] (]) 03:06, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
:(e/c) The block was well within administrative discretion; Noroton really flew off the handle today (note that consensus isn't really required for an initial action by a sysop, just to modify or undo it). As for the talkpage thing, that must have been either my error or ''another'' bug with this new "feature", I've fixed that up. <small style="color:#999;white-space:nowrap">] // ] // ] // 03:12, 10 October 2008 (UTC)</small>
::Sure, I acknowledge that there has been an outbreak of unwarranted unpleasantness which is why I agree that a block is called for. Noroton's previous blocks are over a year ago and can be disregarded. Consequently, for what can be termed an initial block in recent times, then a day or two seems more appropriate. If this doesn't have the necessary effect then by all means impose a lengthy block and I won't intervene. If you still don't agree perhaps you would be good enough to seek a third opinion? ] (]) 03:29, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
:::I disagree with the wisdom of blocking for short amounts of time just because unseemly outbreaks occur irregularly. Blocks should be as long as they need to be to help. My read of the situation is that Noroton's been slowly boiling over and finally broke - a day off is unlikely to be anything more than a short-term psychological blow rather than an actual solution to what caused this outburst. The issue is already on ANI, so I'm sure that more opinions and a review of this block will be coming in soon. <small style="color:#999;white-space:nowrap">] // ] // ] // 03:38, 10 October 2008 (UTC)</small>
::::Grsz11 has ''two'' blocks in 2008 both for edit warring on election related topics (the qoutes are "Edit warring: 3RR violation on Barack Obama" "‎ (Edit warring: @Jeremiah Wright sermon controversy)"), he was blocked for ''12 hours''. Noroton has ''zero'' blocks in 2008 and he was blocked for ''one week''. Could you explain what is the reason for - in light of the block logs - this unequal treatment of these two editors? ] (]) 13:38, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
:::::The block length was foolish and accomplished nothing that a warning wouldn't have. ''The issue is already on ANI, so I'm sure that more opinions and a review of this block will be coming in soon.'' Well, that was obviously false. I've already considered my own mistakes. You should review your own. Having said that, I'm sorry my own actions inconvenienced you (that's not sarcasm), and thank you for at least doing something to address problems. -- ] (]) 17:46, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

*Wednesday April 21 '''] (])'''.
I noticed that, when uploading ], ] included the ''page'' history of ] on the new page but left out its ''upload'' history (which, in particular, happened to include my upload of a cleaned-up version over the original). While I don't particularly mind being left out of the history in this case (it was just a trivial modification, after all), I can see how this could create an issue for images with multiple substantial authors, some of whom are only attributed in the upload log. Is there any way you could modify your bot to also copy the old upload history when converting the image to PNG? Thanks, —] <small>(])</small> 06:00, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

== How we will see unregistered users ==

<section begin=content/>
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 ] to help.

If you have not seen it before, you can ]. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can ] to ].

We have ] 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 ]. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.

Thank you.

:I was planning on posting on your talkpage with questions about what was up with this user's block, but got sidetracked. Here's as good place a place as any though. I have a couple concerns: I looked at the contributions of both {{user|Ιρλανδία}} and {{user|EditTors}} and didn't find any significant overlap, except for a couple reverts of Setanta747 (who is a dime-a-dozen revert warrior across Troubles articles in my experience, so it's not surprising that ''they'd'' get reverted). It's also quite improper to hold somebody's account hostage until evidence that they ''are'' a sock is presented; this is wildly out of line with both current community norms and the blocking policy. And I'm not even considering that we have historically excluded the use of checkuser to prove negatives, due to the intricacies of network engineering. Lastly, use of the unblock template doesn't signify "knowledge of WP"; we spell out what to do in the "you've been blocked" message, and make it intentionally easy to find and use. I'm planning on unblocking this user and asking a checkuser to take a look at Wikipiere's sockpuppets as well as these three accounts, please advise on how you'd like to proceed. <small style="color:#999;white-space:nowrap">] // ] // ] // 01:38, 6 November 2008 (UTC)</small>

::I'd like checkuser first please. I've had the honour of working with this user many times and unblocking is not conductive to the good of WP.

Image:UD Vecindario kits 2008-09.png up for deletion

Hello, this is to inform you that the image ] has been listed for deletion. It was officially uploaded by your bot, which has full protection on its user talk, hence the posting here. Since you are away, and since the delete is absolutely uncontroversial, I see no reason to bother Jennavecia. Regards, Sven Manguard Talk 04:10, 26 September 2010 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:Gpntb-logo.png

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Gpntb-logo.png. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Misplaced Pages constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Misplaced Pages page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Acather96 (talk) 09:53, 2 October 2010 (UTC)

List of current world boxing champions

Hello, east718, how are things? Sorry bothering you, but there's a problem on the above-mentioned list with somebody always reverting things like Rigoberto Álvarez, who is the WBA's interim champ at 154 lb., which you can see on the latest rankings from last Thursday, see: http://wbanews.com/artman/uploads/1/WBA_09-10_1.PDF , and he's also constantly putting in wrong dates and so on... Could you have a look at the history of the list and maybe give him a first warning? I don't really like to ask you, but you're the only mod I know... ;-)

Image on Wiki: Racing UK

Hi There,

The image you are using on our page for Racing UK is out of date. Can you please remove it? Also, the web address is wrong, it is actually www.racinguk.com, not racinguk.tv Finally, we are not in any way associated with the Racing Post, so can you remove that reference too?

If you have any questions do not hesitate getting back in touch

List of current world boxing champions

Hello, east718! Can you please have a look at the discussion page of the mentioned site, under point number 4, there are people who do not want the "nb" system anymore that you created a few years back. I'm absolutely 100% pro this system for the list, as nowadays, everybody is a "Super" or "Unified" or "Interim" champion, I think it would be too much to insert it in every boxer's case, the (featured) list would be overloaded... I think people are now used to our system, why change a "winning team"?

Image file removal

Hi, http://en.wikipedia.org/File:Brac-logo.png is the old logo of BRAC. We changed the logo officially on 2nd February, 2010.

Your deletion of the Jolly Roger's Cookbook article, some time in 2007...

I can't find the contents of the article you have delted but I can read that you found it to be an advertisment for a textfile...

I can assure you that the text file that comes up at http://www.textfiles.com/anarchy/JOLLYROGER/ is an exact copy of the dog eared, dot matrix printed, tractor feed paper copy I received in '88.

That textfile collection is as legendary as The Anarchist's Cookbook or any other subversive intruction manual from the early '80s and thus deserves a mention on your Wiki. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 118.90.111.107 (talk) 08:52, 2 January 2011 (UTC)

  • I am not East718 but I found your question interesting.
  • An archive of the article can be found at:
http://web.archive.org/web/20071118102602/http://en.wikipedia.org/Jolly_Roger%27s_Cookbook
  • Given the underground, countercultural, BBS-based nature of the beast, I'm having trouble thinking of ways in which this could even be possible to satisfy, other than raising a consensus of diverse contributors (does WP even allow for that?). There might not be any documentary evidence to be had - the existence and legend of the JRCB is one of the closer things to an oral history (for want of a better description) possessed by the transitional generation of the early information age. No-one who was involved with its spread particularly WANTED there to be any trace of such, after all, or to acknowledge its existence or their possession of it in a public forum.
It existed in computer-space, on discs and on dial-up servers, during a period of great change and upheaval in terms of platforms, storage formats, communications methods, general culture, etc, and when the world was far less connected than it is now. There may be enough people now who still have a computer from 10 years ago, and all their files on a memory stick bought at the same time that will still work just dandy on a modern machine (and that old computer may still be able to access and use this site); but, the same could not be said in 1997 (let alone 2007!) of systems, storage media, or online resources from 1987, which would be variously hideously and unusably out of date, so dated as to be unreadable in modern machines (or indeed, suffering physical bit-rot), or long dead and gone and no longer connected to an operating phone line, having been superceded by the WWW or just seeing their owners growing up, moving house, getting married, being arrested, dying, etc, with no concept of things existing "in the cloud", and their continued survival entirely dependent on some random having taken a copy. It was never compiled into a book or journal, never printed, never got an ISBN, never went into the Congressional Library (quite obviously!). And personal computers weren't quite as widespread a thing as they are now, still being a bit of a geek's preserve, and any kind of remote, telephonic connection far, far moreso (no facebook, no wikipedia, etc... not even tumblr - nowhere for teenage girls to log onto with their macbooks and iphones to squee over their pop idols).
That there are yet people here from around the world (even if only a few, so far - given that, as the wikipedia article was deleted 7 years ago, they have to run across it by chance on this particular talk page...) debating it the better part of 30 years after it was first written must be a mark of some kind of historical worth? Before the rest of us who know anything about it ourselves die, or at least the memory fades so much that our accounts become gradually less reliable and useful if anyone should suddenly take it upon themselves to grab a videocamera and make an arthouse documentary film that would validate all this to the standards being demanded?
All I can say is that it was definitely well known in my early years at secondary school, in the middle of suburban England, before anyone outside of university research departments had even heard of the internet. To make it from the American gen-X phreaker scene to being quietly passed around amongst close friends, on unlabelled DSDD floppies in that parochial schoolyard, is a heck of an achievement for something with no noteriety at all. I'd contend there are probably a lot of published books (and, moreover, video games) that have small side-note articles here that garnered less attention than the JR did at the time.
Also, as an aside, I'm heartened to see it being referred to in this way, as when I later went to look for it on the internet - having eventually got access to it, and having lost my old disc-based, never-printed copy of the "book" - it was only ever referred to as the Anarchist's Cookbook, with the piratical epithet having gone missing along the way.
And, PS: "advertisement for a textfile" ... what, really? Take a moment and think about the absurdity of that argument. How do you "advertise" a now-historical, not commercially published text, or gain anything from its greater publicity? 91.125.59.216 (talk) 22:05, 8 March 2014 (UTC)

Photo police

Apparently you have now twice removed the photo of the Ash Grove (music club). I thought I made it abundantly clear that Ed Pearl owns the rights to the photo and he explicitly authorized me to upload it into Misplaced Pages. I have known the owner of the photo for over 40 years. Is removing this photo an example of compulsive overpolicing of photos? Do you have some specific grievance here? Perhaps you prefer the article not be illustrated. Maybe you have some problem with Ed Pearl or his Ash Grove club? Are you the same person who wanted to eliminate the whole article because this cultural space is supposedly unworthy of notice in Misplaced Pages? --Lastudies (talk) 22:39, 5 October 2011 (UTC)

This will be a casual working event in which Wikipedians are getting together to scan interesting documents at the National Archives related to a different theme each day—currently: spaceflight, women's suffrage, Chile, and battleships—for use on Misplaced Pages/Wikimedia Commons. The event is being held on multiple days, and in the evenings and weekend, so that as many locals and out-of-towners from nearby regions as possible can come. Please join us!

Better source request for File:TheTwilightZoneLogo.png

Thanks for uploading File:TheTwilightZoneLogo.png. You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact Web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.

replacement needed for File:Detasemen Khusus 88 operators.jpg

I have looked for this file on the commons to replace it in the article which refers to it, but have not found it. Does anyone know how to undo this deletion?

MSU Interview

Dear East718,

My name is Jonathan Obar user:Jaobar, I'm a professor in the College of Communication Arts and Sciences at Michigan State University and a Teaching Fellow with the Wikimedia Foundation's Education Program. This semester I've been running a little experiment at MSU, a class where we teach students about becoming Misplaced Pages administrators. Not a lot is known about your community, and our students (who are fascinated by wiki-culture by the way!) want to learn how you do what you do, and why you do it. A while back I proposed this idea (the class) to the communityHERE, where it was met mainly with positive feedback. Anyhow, I'd like my students to speak with a few administrators to get a sense of admin experiences, training, motivations, likes, dislikes, etc. We were wondering if you'd be interested in speaking with one of our students.


So a few things about the interviews:

  • Interviews will last between 15 and 30 minutes.
  • Interviews can be conducted over skype (preferred), IRC or email. (You choose the form of communication based upon your comfort level, time, etc.)
  • All interviews will be completely anonymous, meaning that you (real name and/or pseudonym) will never be identified in any of our materials, unless you give the interviewer permission to do so.
  • All interviews will be completely voluntary. You are under no obligation to say yes to an interview, and can say no and stop or leave the interview at any time.
  • The entire interview process is being overseen by MSU's institutional review board (ethics review). This means that all questions have been approved by the university and all students have been trained how to conduct interviews ethically and properly.


Bottom line is that we really need your help, and would really appreciate the opportunity to speak with you. If interested, please send me an email at obar@msu.edu (to maintain anonymity) and I will add your name to my offline contact list. If you feel comfortable doing so, you can post your nameHERE instead.

If you have questions or concerns at any time, feel free to email me at obar@msu.edu. I will be more than happy to speak with you.

Thanks in advance for your help. We have a lot to learn from you.

Sincerely,

Jonathan Obar --Jaobar (talk) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chlopeck (talk • contribs) 23:16, 14 February 2012 (UTC)

I remember that you were a huge fan of the show. And I vaguely remember something about you and Jimmy working on The Wire Wikia or something?
Anyway, come back! --MZMcBride (talk) 23:47, 15 March 2012 (UTC)
Whoa, that was a while back! O_O I believe either user:Opark 77 or Jimmy started that wiki, then they did a lot of work on articles while I mainly dicked around. That was like six or seven years ago though!
Anyway I am very busy these days and have new hobbies. I started editing wp a lot because I was disabled during that time, but then I got better and lost interest, then my computer ate its own face and that was kind of the straw that broke the camel's back and led me to quit. I guess I've always kind of been like that with hobbies, but I'll try to be back sometime. :-) How are the people from the old crew doing? — east718 | talk | 03:56, 2 April 2012 (UTC)

Abuse Filter on the Article Feedback Tool

Hey there :). You're being contacted because you're an edit filter manager, At the moment, we're developing Version 5 of the Article Feedback Tool, which you may or may not have heard about. If you haven't; for the first time, this will involve a free-text box where readers can submit comments :). Obviously, there's going to be junk, and we want to minimise that junk. To do so, we're working the Abuse Filter into the tool.

For this to work, we need people to write and maintain filters. I'd be very grateful if you could take a look at the discussion here and the attached docs, and comment and contribute! Thanks :). Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 18:14, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Misplaced Pages is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

Jeremiah Metcalf

I was considering creating a page for Jeremiah Metcalf, but I see that you were the admin that deleted a previous attempt. Per WP:NMMA a fighter is presumed notable if they fought at least three (3) professional fights for a top-tier MMA organization. WP:MMATIER lists Strikeforce as a top-tier MMA organization. Jeremiah Metcalf has had 3 fights in Strikeforce - one on October 7, 2006; once on November 16, 2007; and once on June 27, 2008 (see http://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Jeremiah-Metcalf-16262). Therefore, it would seem that he meets WP:NMMA and thus has a presumption of meeting WP:GNG according to WP:SPORTCRIT. Before creating this page, I wanted to find out some more information on why it was deleted and if the 3 fights in Strikeforce in view of WP:NMMA were considered. RonSigPi (talk) 12:16, 12 April 2013 (UTC)

The article was deleted five years ago, I think back then the MMA project had only like 30 members and WP:NMMA didn't even exist. The article itself had no lede or prose, it was literally just a table with his fight history. Feel free to recreate it. — east718 | talk | 17:06, 12 April 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:WCAU-TV logo.png

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on File:WCAU-TV logo.png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from not the current logo so not used for identification, no third party commentary on logo, fails WP:FAIR. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Misplaced Pages takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Misplaced Pages to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Misplaced Pages:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Misplaced Pages:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

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 "Click here to 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 removed 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. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 01:24, 8 June 2014 (UTC)

Denise Milani

Hi, I have been recently researching the Denise Milani case on Misplaced Pages, and saw that her article was deleted/re-created countless of times. (I read most of the discussions, including three AfD's and several heated threads on admin's noticeboard.) At that time, the deletion might have been reasonable, due to the lack of reliable sourcing. However, I noticed that the situation has changed, because in 2012 and 2013 she was covered by The Independent (), The New York Times (), Daily Mail (), and Jezebel (). In addition, she has been covered by AskMen (, ), FHM (), Mandatory (), and MadeMan (). I think this is enough evidence to establish her notability, so I kindly request the removal of protection from her article.

I have left the same message at User:Jarry1250's talk page, but since you were the original protecting editor of the article, he referred me to you. Thanks. --Λeternus 22:53, 23 August 2014 (UTC)

Hi, I'm the original protecting admin only because my bot mass-protected pages that were on the old WP:JUPE list (this was used before the "protect from creation" feature existed). I can't find the original admin who added it to the jupe list but it was so long ago that I doubt anybody would mind if any admin unprotected it or a deletion review was opened. — east718 | talk | 07:43, 24 August 2014 (UTC)
Ok, since this is the case, do you mind if you unprotect it? I would want to create an article based on the sources I have listed above. --Λeternus 08:43, 24 August 2014 (UTC)
It's been deleted several times, including via AFD but from what I can see that it's simply because of WP:PORNBIO. There was one unsalting per but it doesn't look like anyone looked at this specific article there. Given those sources you posted and the fact that the last deletion discussion was 7 years ago (!), I've unprotected the article. — east718 | talk | 21:48, 22 October 2014 (UTC)
Thanks! --Λeternus 07:56, 24 October 2014 (UTC)

Thank you, and oversight

Hello! Thank you again very much for looking at the 3RR report I filed. I responded to it, letting you know of a possible oversight. It appears you missed a revert QuackGuru made in that edit (POV tag removal) because of some of his editing habits. Anyway, after nobody responded to the last report, I am especially glad to have had you take a look at it this time! Thanks again! LesVegas (talk) 17:50, 27 October 2014 (UTC)

redirect page for WP:FA appropriate?

Hi, I was going to create a redirect for WP:FA as noted here, but apparently you previously deleted such a page. Is the redirect still inappropriate? I argue point 5.

The title article has over 75 edits, about half of which are full or partial reversions in the 24 hours since protection was lifted. In declining a request by several editors to extend protection, Admin East718 said s/he would instead block those engaged in edit warring.

I appreciate that East is working as a volunteer and do not mean to substitute my judgement for his/hers, but am confused to now find a note on his/her page that s/he is away from the Wiki for an extended time. The protection worked very well to calm an ugly situation, and was actually supported by most of the page editors. If reprotection is deemed inappropriate, could someone at least drop by and issue some warnings? Thank you Formerly 98 (talk) 20:19, 3 December 2014 (UTC)

@Formerly 98: I'm still around, I just randomly take breaks of months to years at a time. I'm going to take a second look at the article right now and figure out how to calm the situation down. — east718 | talk | 20:36, 3 December 2014 (UTC)
Thank you. I know this is a thankless task and certainly dont mean to be critical. Formerly 98 (talk) 20:53, 3 December 2014 (UTC)
I've identified 3 edit wars going on at the same time:
Most of the edit warring was before I handled the RFPP request, and only one person has made more than one revert since then. Additionally, the pace of editing on the article has slowed down considerably (15 in the past 16 hours) and most of the recent edits appear to be gnomish in nature, so I don't really see a need to protect the article. If you think I made the wrong call here feel free to ask another admin to take a look, I certainly won't mind if they decide to apply protection. — east718 | talk | 21:20, 3 December 2014 (UTC)
OK, my impression is a little more negative than that, but I appreciate your time and effort in looking in. Thanks.Formerly 98 (talk) 21:23, 3 December 2014 (UTC)

Hi, Obama's "James Flacco" gaff will be in the news cycle for well into the weekend, and probably up to Monday morning. We'll surely get more "Flacco" vandalism once the protection expires in 24 hours. I would suggest extending the protection. Manul 21:10, 19 December 2014 (UTC)

Invitation to subscribe to the edit filter mailing list

Hi, as a user in the edit filter manager user group we wanted to let you know about the new wikipedia-en-editfilters mailing list. As part of our recent efforts to improve the use of edit filters on the English Misplaced Pages it has been established as a venue for internal discussion by edit filter managers regarding private filters (those only viewable by administrators and edit filter managers) and also as a means by which non-admins can ask questions about hidden filters that wouldn't be appropriate to discuss on-wiki. As an edit filter manager we encourage you to subscribe; the more users we have in the mailing list the more useful it will be to the community. If you subscribe we will send a short email to you through Misplaced Pages to confirm your subscription, but let us know if you'd prefer another method of verification. I'd also like to take the opportunity to invite you to contribute to the proposed guideline for edit filter use at WP:Edit filter/Draft and the associated talk page. Thank you!

Expanding coverage of Jewish women on Misplaced Pages makes these women and their creations discoverable, addresses the gender bias on Misplaced Pages in a positive way, and works to correct imbalances archival collecting practice and institutional projects that have historically silenced women's narratives.

A training session on editing Misplaced Pages will be held at 12:30 pm. Experienced Wikipedians will be on-hand to assist throughout the day. Please bring your laptop and power cord; we will have library resources, WiFi, and a list of suggested topics on hand.

Extended confirmed protection

Hello, East718. This message is intended to notify administrators of important changes to the protection policy.

Extended confirmed protection (also known as "30/500 protection") is a new level of page protection that only allows edits from accounts at least 30 days old and with 500 edits. The automatically assigned "extended confirmed" user right was created for this purpose. The protection level was created following this community discussion with the primary intention of enforcing various arbitration remedies that prohibited editors under the "30 days/500 edits" threshold to edit certain topic areas.

In July and August 2016, a request for comment established consensus for community use of the new protection level. Administrators are authorized to apply extended confirmed protection to combat any form of disruption (e.g. vandalism, sock puppetry, edit warring, etc.) on any topic, subject to the following conditions:

  • Extended confirmed protection may only be used in cases where semi-protection has proven ineffective. It should not be used as a first resort.
  • A bot will post a notification at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard of each use. MusikBot currently does this by updating a report, which is transcluded onto the noticeboard.

Please review the protection policy carefully before using this new level of protection on pages. Thank you.
This message was sent to the administrators' mass message list. To opt-out of future messages, please remove yourself from the list. 17:47, 23 September 2016 (UTC)

File source problem with File:CheickKongo2.png

Thank you for uploading File:CheickKongo2.png. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content.

Two-Factor Authentication now available for admins

Hello,

Please note that TOTP based two-factor authentication is now available for all administrators. In light of the recent compromised accounts, you are encouraged to add this additional layer of security to your account. It may be enabled on your preferences page in the "User profile" tab under the "Basic information" section. For basic instructions on how to enable two-factor authentication, please see the developing help page for additional information. Important: Be sure to record the two-factor authentication key and the single use keys. If you lose your two factor authentication and do not have the keys, it's possible that your account will not be recoverable. Furthermore, you are encouraged to utilize a unique password and two-factor authentication for the email account associated with your Wikimedia account. This measure will assist in safeguarding your account from malicious password resets. Comments, questions, and concerns may be directed to the thread on the administrators' noticeboard.

A new user right for New Page Patrollers

Hi East718.

A new user group, New Page Reviewer, has been created in a move to greatly improve the standard of new page patrolling. The user right can be granted by any admin at PERM. It is highly recommended that admins look beyond the simple numerical threshold and satisfy themselves that the candidates have the required skills of communication and an advanced knowledge of notability and deletion. Admins are automatically included in this user right.

It is anticipated that this user right will significantly reduce the work load of admins who patrol the performance of the patrollers. However,due to the complexity of the rollout, some rights may have been accorded that may later need to be withdrawn, so some help will still be needed to some extent when discovering wrongly applied deletion tags or inappropriate pages that escape the attention of less experienced reviewers, and above all, hasty and bitey tagging for maintenance. User warnings are available here but very often a friendly custom message works best.

If you have any questions about this user right, don't hesitate to join us at WT:NPR. (Sent to all admins).MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:46, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

ArbCom Elections 2016: Voting now open!

Hello, East718. Voting in the 2016 Arbitration Committee elections is open from Monday, 00:00, 21 November through Sunday, 23:59, 4 December to all unblocked users who have registered an account before Wednesday, 00:00, 28 October 2016 and have made at least 150 mainspace edits before Sunday, 00:00, 1 November 2016.

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Misplaced Pages arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

If you wish to participate in the 2016 election, please review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 22:08, 21 November 2016 (UTC)

Saturday December 3: Contemporary Chinese Art Edit-a-thon @ Guggenheim

On Saturday December 3, 2016, in conjunction with a global campaign, the Guggenheim will host its fifth Misplaced Pages edit-a-thon—or, #guggathon—to enhance Misplaced Pages's coverage of modern and contemporary artists from Greater China.

The event will include a training session for participants who are new to Misplaced Pages, and Misplaced Pages specialists will be on hand to provide basic instruction and editing support. Editors are invited to view the exhibition Tales of Our Time following the event.

The Guggenheim aims to raise awareness of the artists featured in the Tales of Our Time exhibition supported by The Robert H. N.

Just a Request

This may be a rather unconventional request, given how long it's been since the said image was deleted, which was years before I joined Misplaced Pages, though not before I first ran into the page that contained the image.

The said image File:NefariousTropy.PNG was deleted in January 2008 and although I'm not requesting that the said image be restored, I was wondering if I would be able to find any sites that still had the image. ― C.Syde (talk | contribs) 07:39, 1 February 2017 (UTC)

That's perfectly fine. It just so happens that I might be able to get access to the image without it being restored anyway. But I'd need to know something. Is this the image? ― C.Syde (talk | contribs) 19:51, 1 February 2017 (UTC)
Thanks. I really appreciate it that you were able to help me to find the image, even after the number of years it's been since it was deleted. Heck, you might not still have been active on Misplaced Pages by this time! :D ― C.Syde (talk | contribs) 21:47, 1 February 2017 (UTC)

For this month, and following on the recent Art+Feminism campaign, we'll focus on building better edit-a-thon tools for a variety of different thematic campaigns, and user-testing them with the community. Towards a goal of advancing these tools for wider use with diverse local groups.

Newcomers are very welcome! Bring your friends and colleagues! --Pharos (talk) 05:13, 21 March 2017 (UTC)

Invitation to Admin confidence survey

Hello,

Beginning in September 2017, the Wikimedia Foundation Anti-harassment tool team will be conducting a survey to gauge how well tools, training, and information exists to assist English Misplaced Pages administrators in recognizing and mitigating things like sockpuppetry, vandalism, and harassment.

The survey should only take 5 minutes, and your individual response will not be made public. This survey will be integral for our team to determine how to better support administrators.

To take the survey sign up here and we will send you a link to the form.

We really appreciate your input!

Please let us know if you wish to opt-out of all massmessage mailings from the Anti-harassment tools team.

718 Bot

Hello East718! While doing periodic cleanups I found a bot account of yours: 718 Bot that does not appear to have been used since: 20101208040114. Have you retired this bot and no longer require a bot flag for it? Please ping me if replying here. Best regards, — xaosflux 15:17, 25 June 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for the response, I've marked it retired and removed the flag. Should you ever wish to reactivate or reuse it drop a request at WP:BRFA to get your tasks reviewed and approved. Happy editing, — xaosflux 16:53, 25 June 2018 (UTC)
Is this one better? (See User:718 Bot) - I've meant to go back and update the "retired" bots for a long time but never had (to list them as different from just 'inactive' bots that could just resume without a new request). — xaosflux 11:22, 27 June 2018 (UTC)

File source problem with File:BJPenn2.png

Thank you for uploading File:BJPenn2.png. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Misplaced Pages. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged.

Translat-a-thon NYC 2019 @ LaGuardia Community College is hosting the second annual Misplaced Pages Translatathon! At this event on Thursday evening and during the day Friday this week, anyone from the public is invited to LaGuardia to join students, professors, and CUNY faculty in translating Misplaced Pages articles among any languages which attendees understand. Themes for this event include public health and the history of New York City.

New York City has a large immigrant population and great diversity of speakers of various languages. Among all schools in New York City, LaGuardia has the highest percentage of immigrant students, the highest percentage of students who speak a language other than English as their first language, and the greatest representation of language diversity. It is a strength of LaGuardia that it can present "Misplaced Pages translatathons", which are Misplaced Pages translation events.

ArbCom 2019 special circular

Icon of a white exclamation mark within a black triangle
 Administrators must secure their accounts

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

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.
  1. Check that your password is unique (not reused across sites).
  2. Check that your password is strong (not simple or guessable).
  3. 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 02:51, 4 May 2019 (UTC)

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)

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Misplaced Pages:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Misplaced Pages:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Misplaced Pages:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.

Special:WantedTemplates

Hi, I have been helping with an effort to clear up false-positives in Special:WantedTemplates and found that 7 of the entries can be traced back to User:East718/block.js. For example, if you check Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:' + 'zombie proxy, you will see that the server is reporting that User:East718/block.js is transcluding that template. Clearly this is a quirk in how the backend software parses javascript pages, but it makes it harder to find the real problem pages. It would be great if you could put 

// <syntaxhighlight lang=javascript>

at the top of the script page and 

// </syntaxhighlight>

at the bottom of the script page. Since these are commented out, it won't break the javascript, but it will prevent the backend software from parsing the {{' + 'zombie proxy as a template transclusion. Thanks! Plastikspork ―Œ 22:27, 3 February 2021 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:PSP Macau.png

Thanks for uploading File:PSP Macau.png. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Misplaced Pages. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{Di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
  2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. 廣九直通車 (talk) 09:58, 15 March 2021 (UTC)

This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

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. 20:05, 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)

Replaceable fair use File:Ogre-logo.png

Thanks for uploading File:Ogre-logo.png. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Misplaced Pages. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{Di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
  2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Vitaium (talk) 02:25, 9 April 2022 (UTC)

Imminent suspension of administrative permissions due to inactivity

Information icon Established policy provides for the removal of the administrative permissions of users who have made fewer than 100 edits over a 60-month period. Your administrative permissions will be removed if you do not return to the required activity level before the beginning of February 2024.

If you do not intend to re-engage with the project in the foreseeable future, please consider voluntarily resigning your administrative permissions by making a request at the bureaucrats' noticeboard.

Thank you for your past contributions to the project. — JJMC89 bot 00:19, 1 January 2024 (UTC)
