Please reduce the protection on this article back down to semi-protected status.

It also only recently was unprotected and this just puts it into the same stagnation it was before. There was no call for full protection this time and one extremely obvious SPA's actions should not lock everything down, again.—] (]) 02:08, 27 October 2014 (UTC) | |||

Thank you for your comments. While you have a good suggestion and one we will take up, we do not appreciate the tone accusing us of using Misplaced Pages as the likes of Google. We request the placement only to help save babies lives. If you could save two babies lives today by getting information to a family, would you? We are asking nothing more than being listed in a means that might provide that hope. Most people do not look at the last links, but only the first couple of ones. The other links are medical resources that are on our site and on our board advisory, so we would not be infringing on their placement. We hope you understand this. | |||
== ] == | |||
Again your suggestion on the text insert about the role of ours and other organizations is important. We intend, with our medical board, to edit quite a bit because the information can be more detailed and some is outdated. | |||

We hope that you appreciate and understand why this is so important. Twice as many babies die from TTTS as SIDS, yet more of the population is aware of SIDS. | |||

Simple: Mr. Gilliland is written about and has been working in the field of Interaction Design for 10 years, has been a student, worker and contributer to computer science, ], the international art world, and has been photographed, appeared in magazines, newsletters and been a part of a University which has over 150,000 alumnus and 14,000 active community members at any one time. In addition to those sheer numbers of possible ''friends of Herbert Elwood Gilliland III'', there are probably a number of people he knew in high school and other situations which could also explain why users of Misplaced Pages who number in the possible 100,000s if not millions could possibly be interested in mentioning someone whom they know is responsible for a variety of activities which are pro-environmental, product-development-oriented, and generally positive contributions to society. He has left an extensive paper trail in both the University and his work, which has been written about by several national magazines and newspapers whose subscription base is rather large. I dispute that he is not-at-all-notable in the fact that he is a scientist and artist and has contributed to high-profile and locally famous (in Pittsburgh, PA) art groups and shows, was once involved in broadcasting to a listener base of 10,000+ (at WRCT 88.3fm) and has also written a popular add-on for ]. Google would be a great way to find him, searching www.cmu.edu would be a great way to find him. His resume is a great way to find out the information I have listed here, and searching his alma mater's paper files and the general web is another example. Since the community of web users is around 90 million it seems very possible that Mr. H. Elwood Gilliland III could be readily accessible via Google.com searches. Not to mention he has already been mentioned in Misplaced Pages in at least two other articles. | |||

<div class="floatleft" style="margin-bottom:0">]</div>A discussion is taking place as to whether the article ''']''' is suitable for inclusion in Misplaced Pages according to ] or whether it should be ]. | |||
The article will be discussed at ] until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines. | |||
Regarding "why those two unconnected individuals would obsessively insert references to same in articles to which he has only the most tangential relevance" -- this is merely your opinion. I think providing insight into a sudden change in GM's manufacturing trends, and providing insight into the lineage of various products and articles, whose historical versions are readily accessible to anyone who uses the Misplaced Pages, are great examples of why two unconnected individuals would want to bring up censored material from past versions, and to create new citations for them which strengthen the argument or shed light onto existing topics, is a fine way of enhancing the Misplaced Pages and in addition is provided for by Misplaced Pages's design. | |||
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion.

One might wonder why ] is so preoccupied with basically censoring information about H. Elwood Gilliland III as it is borderlining on a hate crime since no one is apparantly allowed to talk about H. Elwood Gilliland III or his exploits it appears that anyone who challenges any of these users is obviously somehow circumventing a bias which has been inserted into Misplaced Pages, such as in the case of ], a homosexual from Britain who spends almost every single day monitoring and approving or disapproving of contributions to ] based on his own biased sense of what he feels the article should look like and contain. For this reason, anything written on Misplaced Pages should be considered completely biased and probably worthless for citation because of its inability to eliminate bias, despite attempts otherwise such as by mainly providing a variety of special flags and discussion opportunities to the contrary. I believe a policy against allowing citations of Misplaced Pages in literary work would ultimately benefit any academic or research institution, and it is probably viewed as a fairly unreliable source of information. | |||
== Invitation to Admin confidence survey == | |||
Are you jealous or something? It seems like you've joined the bandwagon as far as people who wish to shun or otherwise obscure any of his exploits. I am not a "sock puppet" and I feel that the ability to dispute "sock puppets" is obvious an under-developed portion of this service, since I am unable to dispute this with a greater audience than just the accuser and yourself. Adding an element of democracy would be a much better way of solving this problem, similar to jury-trial, since in this case there is no way for me to form advocacy for retaining my user account, other than to attempt to convince you that I'm not, which is unfair but is the established method, even if prejudicial, and thus the one I am following. | |||
Hello, | |||
I would also like to add that in the course of creating this thesis I discovered that you have put Mr. Gilliland's ] up for deletion. Frankly, I see this as a veiled attempt at destroying evidence of Mr. Gilliland's contributions, and since I have edited the pages and cleaned up a portion of both the ] and ] article, you will probably use '''that''' as some sort of smear campaign against me. That, I would call, ''manufacturing evidence'', since I am clearly free to edit any article which I choose, as is anyone else. | |||
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. | |||
I would also like to cite here ], which may be synonymous with your ''manufacturing evidence''. | |||
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. | |||
<br><br> | |||
In addition to these claims, I would like to also return all search results for "Herb Gilliland", with the results pointing to the "other" Herb Gilliland removed by Google.com: | |||

Thanks. Sorry I didn't realise you'd left it here. Unfortunately it seems not even admins can get to deleted pics, unless you know a way. Are you referring, for example, to the hair on the left hand side of the picture? I had a camera for a short time that did that kind of thing - processed it to remove noise and ended up removing detail, particularly in hair. I'm not arguing a point. I'm genuinely interested in such matters. On some of them (now deleted) they just hadn't touched up blemishes which I'd normally expect to see vanished. The compositions have no slickness in them at all, and pro porn is usually very slick. There's random ugly bits of background intruding. There isn't any decent lighting there at all, as far as the results reveal. And in one facial a highlight on the shoulder is so over-exposed it's whited out. Cropping on the black bodice one is non-existent. She's surrounded by redundant space. The most I can imagine is a self-taught amateur who puts them on a pay site to get some money (lots of that kind of stuff around and some of this kind of quality), which then makes nonsense of putting them on wiki for free.

==Publicgirluk DRV== | |||
Hi, | |||
I have a minor objection to the manner in which you closed this. Jimbo did not invoke jurisdiction in his off-hand comment; he simply expressed an opinion. Personally, I dislike it when editors "read the tea leaves" of Jimbo's remarks as if they were scripture. If Jimbo wants the DRV to end, he may close it, or say "close the DRV." Short of a direct command like that, his opinion is no different than anyone's, and may be less significant than others, given the number of things the man has on his plate, and the probable lack of time he has to invest in little squabbles. Anyway, I don't object to the closing, but I consider it done by you, under your own authority, just like any other DRV closure by any admin. I'm removing the reference to Jimbo, and I hope you understand why. Best wishes, ] 15:21, 31 August 2006 (UTC) | |||
As per what Xoloz said, I am highly tempted to unblock the user and may do so soon. If Jimbo thought the user should be indef blocked he should have done it himself. (At this point, I must say that I am highly disappointed in the general behavior on the Wiki about this. The user had multiple productive edits to topics completely unrelated to sexual matters and didn't act trollish at all. Contrast this for example with the crap with Courtney, an actual troll (who is amazingly unblocked at this point)).

:Reversing administrator actions is not wheel-warring. We do it all the time and should. Taking administrator actions you know are disputed (whether reversing or initiating) is wheel-warring. Regardless of whether W.marsh's removal of his block was a "tantrum" as you say or not... his initial block was itself wheel-warring... and even had it not been, your re-instatement of a block you knew to be disputed would ''still'' be wheel-warring. The point is to not use your admin buttons to enforce your viewpoint when you know there are going to be admin objections / no consensus has been established. --] 14:23, 5 September 2006 (UTC) | |||

Gamergate controversy
Please reduce the protection on this article back down to semi-protected status. Misplaced Pages users should not capitulate to the single purpose accounts and POV pushers trying to say "it's biased it's biased" when it reflects the current weight of the subject across all reliable sources. It also only recently was unprotected and this just puts it into the same stagnation it was before. There was no call for full protection this time and one extremely obvious SPA's actions should not lock everything down, again.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 02:08, 27 October 2014 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Misplaced Pages arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability 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, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:00, 23 November 2015 (UTC)
Notification of pending suspension of administrative permissions due to inactivity
Following a community discussion in June 2011, consensus was reached to provisionally suspend the administrative permissions of users who have been inactive for one year (i.e. administrators who have not made any edits or logged actions in more than one year). As a result of this discussion, your administrative permissions will be removed pending your return if you do not return to activity within the next month. If you wish to have these permissions reinstated should this occur, please post to the Misplaced Pages:Bureaucrats' noticeboard and the userright will be restored per the re-sysopping process (i.e. as long as the attending bureaucrats are reasonably satisfied that your account has not been compromised, that your inactivity did not have the effect of evading scrutiny of any actions which might have led to sanctions, and that you have not been inactive for a three-year period of time). If you remain inactive for a three-year period of time, including the present year you have been inactive, you will need to request reinstatement at WP:RFA. This removal of access is procedural only, and not intended to reflect negatively upon you in any way. We wish you the best in future endeavors, and thank you for your past administrative efforts.

Extended confirmed protection
Hello, Nandesuka. 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. 17:48, 23 September 2016 (UTC)
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 Nandesuka.
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) 13:47, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of David Rolfe (programmer)
The article David Rolfe (programmer) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Not the subject of significant coverage from reliable, independent sources. (?) No in-depth hits in a video game reliable sources custom Google search and no suitable redirect targets (isn't known as an employee or designer of a single company/game).
While all constructive contributions to Misplaced Pages are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. czar 08:38, 27 January 2017 (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 21:04, 4 May 2019 (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.
