To help centralize discussions and keep related topics together, several subpages of Misplaced Pages talk:Administrators' noticeboard redirect here.

This is not the page to report problems to administrators, or discuss administrative issues.

This page is for discussion of the Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard page (and some of its subpages, including /Incidents).

Report incidents such as block evasion at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
Report violations of the three-revert rule at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring.
Discuss general issues at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard.
Report posting of personal information by following instructions at Misplaced Pages:Requests for oversight.
Request discussions need to be closed at Misplaced Pages:Closure requests.

This noticeboard has been mentioned by multiple media organizations:

Andrew Orlowski (September 25, 2013). "Revolting peasants force Misplaced Pages to cut'n'paste Visual Editor into the bin". The Register.

Editable archives

It seems that the ANI archive pages (e.g. Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive1173) have section edit links. This is not normal on archive pages: is it something special to ANI, or a mistake somewhere? --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 19:00, 13 December 2024 (UTC)

Maybe {{Administrators' noticeboard navbox all}} can be taught to emit the flag to inhibit that, iff transcluded onto a "subpage" (or "a subpage containing the string 'archive'")? DMacks (talk) 20:43, 13 December 2024 (UTC)

That wasn't too hard. Which means I probably broke something as a side-effect. Trouts of various sizes welcome as appropriate. DMacks (talk) 16:01, 16 December 2024 (UTC)

Well, it's suppressed the edit links, so

Thank you for that. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 21:05, 16 December 2024 (UTC)

Broken code in blue "Administrators' Noticeboard/Incidents" box

At the bottom of it:

Closed discussions are usually not archived for at least 24 hours. Routine matters might be archived more quickly; complex or controversial matters should remain longer. Sections inactive for 72 hours are archived automatically by Lowercase sigmabot III. Editors unable to edit here are sent to the /Non-autoconfirmed posts subpage.
