I just had a minor run-in with ], and editor I noticed you blocked recently. He made a personal threat when I removed a genre descriptor from the infobox for ]. POI is one of those shows that tends to collect a lot of genre descriptors depending on which editor sees what, so it's become easier to use the simplest and most obvious descriptor: crime drama. I recently removed thriller, which CBS uses in one of its descriptions of the show on its website (although not in its press releases, and not consistently.) He responded with a threat that "something would happen" to any editor who removes it. I've put a gentle warning on his talk page, allowing for his being new, but thought I'd give you a heads up since you have already blocked him once, and seemed to take an interest in correcting his behavior afterward. Hopefully the warning will do the job. --] (]) 19:20, 2 March 2014 (UTC)

:: I accept your apology, and I want you to recognize that statements such as you made are a problem that you should not repeat. I know you can't hurt anyone because you don't know who we are. What I'm less confident about is that you won't make threats again. You've edited here less than a month and already have been blocked once, plus you've demonstrated an aggressive editing style several times. That's just not acceptable, and you're going to have to show the community that you're capable of editing that is collaborative, civil and without giving other editors an ultimatum or by making threats. You are not the final word regarding content, and need to accept that. --] (]) 22:45, 2 March 2014 (UTC)

Hi! This is a long shot, but I wonder if you can help. 15 years ago you made that stated that ] was established as a plantation settlement by the British between 1660 and 1683.

::Thanks for your help, that's great! There's one niggle - since that document was published in 2012 and it uses the exact same words that were in our article at the time (and the words around it are similar too) one has to consider whether the UN copied the text from Misplaced Pages. Would they do that, I wonder? It's surprising where our words can turn up! I tried the internet archive wayback machine to see if they'd stored an earlier version of the document, but no luck.

Thank you for your work on ''4'' which was promoted to FA last week&mdash;you helped considerably in salvaging content I removed when I condensed the article down from its previous state and key in ensuring the prose of that article was brilliant.

== 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>.] (]) 13:47, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce

The article Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needing to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass; otherwise it may fail. See Talk:Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce for issues which need to be addressed.

Your GA nomination of Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce

The article Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce for comments about the article. Well done! If the article has not already appeared on the main page as a "Did you know" item, or as a bold link under "In the News" or in the "On This Day" prose section, you can nominate it within the next seven days to appear in DYK. Bolded names with dates listed at the bottom of the "On This Day" column do not affect DYK eligibility.

May Pen

Hi! This is a long shot, but I wonder if you can help. 15 years ago you made this edit that stated that May Pen was established as a plantation settlement by the British between 1660 and 1683. Do you have any recollection of the source you used for that? On Talk:May Pen we're trying to determine whether it was a pen (Jamaican cattle farm) before it was named after Rev. William May who was there in the 1700s.  —SMALLJIM  13:30, 11 November 2020 (UTC)

Hi, User:Smalljim! I can't remember the source that I used (also can't believe it's been 15 years! lol). But I did a quick Google search and was able to find this article (pg 6). Not sure of the origin of the name "May Pen" per se, but the article mentions the establishment of a plantation settlement by the British in the 1600s. Hope this helps. I'll keep looking and let you know if I find anything else. Cheers! Journalist . talk 23:10, 11 November 2020 (UTC)
Thanks for your help, that's great! There's one niggle - since that document was published in 2012 and it uses the exact same words that were in our article at the time (and the words around it are similar too) one has to consider whether the UN copied the text from Misplaced Pages. Would they do that, I wonder? It's surprising where our words can turn up! I tried the internet archive wayback machine to see if they'd stored an earlier version of the document, but no luck. Best,  —SMALLJIM  23:56, 11 November 2020 (UTC)
Yes, it's possible that they may have gotten it from Misplaced Pages. Never thought of that! I'm sure I found it somewhere, so I'll keep looking and let you know if/when I find anything. Journalist . talk 04:03, 12 November 2020 (UTC)

Invitation to participate in a research

Hello,

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Misplaced Pages, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.

You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.

The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .

Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.

Kind Regards,

WMF Research Team
