RAJPUROHITS undeletion

Hey ! You had deleted the page that I created "RAJPUROHITS" because of the existing disputed page "Rajpurohit". I wish to convey that though the name is similar but there is stark difference between existing page and the new one in terms of content. The existing page has been so heavily eroded due to heavy modifications that it has lost its true form. Due to edit warring and manipulation by people with vested interests and also more protective layers that it has lost authentic content and is difficult to change. I wish to create a fresh page with new information which would be authentic. Kindly undelete and allow me to build a robust content on the topic. Regards Anshu1799 (talk) 02:47, 29 October 2024 (UTC)

@Anshu1799: I cannot restore the article at its former location because it will just get deleted again under CSD A10. If we created a "fork" of an article every time there was an editorial dispute, we would have hundreds of different versions of many articles. I can, however, restore that version into a draft within your userspace, which you can use as a tool to seek consensus for your changes to the main article. --Chris | Crazycomputers (talk) 07:27, 29 October 2024 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

	Nice work on fixing that "redirect" - Did your watchlist just turn red too? DN (talk) 03:40, 5 November 2024 (UTC)

@Darknipples: Thank you for the award! I assume you are talking about the block I placed on the editor who moved Tim Walz? I just happened to randomly run across other page-blanking vandalism by that user while on RC patrol, so I dropped the hammer. --Chris | Crazycomputers (talk) 03:48, 5 November 2024 (UTC)

Thank you

Thanks 2600:1008:B188:25AF:7C32:7FFF:FEA6:E44B (talk) 04:21, 6 November 2024 (UTC)

No problem, thank you for reporting the user! --Chris | Crazycomputers (talk) 04:22, 6 November 2024 (UTC)

Why not semi-protect the page

They are not going to stop. Ratnahastin (talk) 05:25, 6 November 2024 (UTC)

@Ratnahastin: I certainly can. They will then move to a different page. --Chris | Crazycomputers (talk) 05:26, 6 November 2024 (UTC)

User:Freerobucks

Hey, are you able to revoke their TPA? And maybe revdel their TP while you're at it? Thanks Aydoh8 04:31, 7 November 2024 (UTC)

@Aydoh8: Done, thanks for bringing it to my attention! --Chris | Crazycomputers (talk) 04:35, 7 November 2024 (UTC)

We almost certainly have a block evasion by User:Lejmez active on Massacres of Albanians in World War I by the name of User:Le Joffre

Just bringing this to your attention, as the title says, it appears that the indefinitely blocked edit warring User:Lejmez created a new account 9 days ago and resumed edit warring on Massacres of Albanians in World War I, precisely when they were permanently blocked. Their new account is User:Le Joffre. See the diff here https://en.m.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Massacres_of_Albanians_in_World_War_I&diff=prev&oldid=1255938042 165.237.199.140 (talk) 00:06, 8 November 2024 (UTC)

Indeffed, thanks. --Chris | Crazycomputers (talk) 00:52, 8 November 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for the block, you might want to revoke TPA as well. — ClaudineChionh (she/her · talk · contribs · email · global) 05:10, 8 November 2024 (UTC)

@ClaudineChionh:  Done, thanks! --Chris | Crazycomputers (talk) 05:11, 8 November 2024 (UTC)

Hey, Chris. I've blocked this user without waiting for them to edit as you suggested. I'm OK with the boobs but not the racism. Bishonen | tålk 23:41, 9 November 2024 (UTC).

revert history

Good evening. When I checked my edit history I saw that I had 1 reversion, but to my knowledge I had never been reverted. I think that I may have accidentally self reverted when editing "Registered Mail". I am really proud of my perfect edit quality, is there any way I can delete the revision to keep it perfect? Thank you R8cobra (talk) 03:36, 18 November 2024 (UTC)

@R8cobra (talk page watcher) (Non-administrator comment) Not for that reason, no. If it's any reassurance at all, I have one of the biggest edit counts on Misplaced Pages, and my edit quality is far from perfect. People keeping asking me why I'm not an admin, anyways. Mistakes are simply part of being human. I dream of horses (Hoofprints) (Neigh at me) 04:37, 18 November 2024 (UTC)

@I dream of horse Thank you. What are some reasons a reversion can be deleted? R8cobra (talk) 07:59, 18 November 2024 (UTC)

@R8cobra They're listed here: Misplaced Pages:Revision deletion#Criteria for redaction, or for more severe cases, Misplaced Pages:Oversight#Policy. I dream of horses (Hoofprints) (Neigh at me) 08:02, 18 November 2024 (UTC)

@I dream of horses Thanks! Could this be used? "RD6. Non-contentious housekeeping including correction of clear and obvious unintended mistakes in previous redactions, changes to redaction based upon communal discussion and clear consensus, adding information to the delete logs, and converting traditional selective deleted edits to RevisionDelete. (The action must not be likely to be contentious or controversial; consult if needed.)" R8cobra (talk) 08:05, 18 November 2024 (UTC)

@R8cobra I can't think of a situation where that would be used. Probably not this one. I dream of horses (Hoofprints) (Neigh at me) 08:07, 18 November 2024 (UTC)

@I dream of horses Is there any way to fix it? It would bother me to the point of deleting my account and making a new one if I can't. R8cobra (talk) 08:10, 18 November 2024 (UTC)

@R8cobra Not only is it incredibly unlikely to be fixable---and even if it is, it's not reasonable to take the time to revision delete every mistake an editor will make---the copyright situation on Misplaced Pages is so your account can't be deleted. The edits you make have to be attributed. I dream of horses (Hoofprints) (Neigh at me) 08:38, 18 November 2024 (UTC)
