MSU Interview

Dear Angusmclellan,

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 Wikipedia 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 HERE, 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 HERE 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) 04:19, 14 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Happy Adminship Anniversary

Horror story

I am rather horrified to discover that List of Scottish monarchs still begins with Kenneth MacAlpin. This is the kind of thicko pseudo-history that makes Wikipedia look incompetent as an academic resource. Do you have any suggestions? As far as I can see, most of the experts in medieval history have (unsurprisingly) abandonned Wikipedia, so it is very hard to know who on earth to turn to. --Mais oui! (talk) 04:47, 12 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

My qualifications for offering assistance are hardly impressive, but here is a suggestion. The distinction between "Scotland" and precursor entities would seem to be a process rather than a single event, so, wherever the list starts the lead just needs to point readers to the List of kings of Dál Riata and List of kings of the Picts with a brief comment and a nod to Woolf's From Pictland to Alba, 789–1070 p. 320ff or similar. Ben MacDui 13:07, 12 May 2012 (UTC) PS Happy birthday Angus.[reply]
Not sure if I can give much more help than this, but it is certainly an issue. I seem to remember somewhere a form of words that indicated that names (and dates) were traditional, which might be a solution, but I cannot remember where. Otherwise breaking the list up, as suggested above, may be the best solution.--SabreBD (talk) 13:56, 12 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Most lists of British monarchs that I've come across list English, and even Anglo-Saxon monarchs, but tend to neglect Scottish and Welsh ones...--MacRusgail (talk) 14:36, 12 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I think Ben MacDui and Sabrebd have it right. It's not like Denmark and its semi-legendary and legendary and more a case of it depends what you mean by Scotland. Angus McLellan (Talk) 14:32, 14 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion review on Category:Fooian prelates

In regards to Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2007 May 27#Prelates and the discussion on these categories: I was recently trying to find men who are Honorary Prelates but not bishops, and I was having a hard time because there was no category. Then I noticed that Category:Italian prelates is populated, extremely sparsely. I was about to start adding cardinals to the category but then I noticed the old deletion discussion. I wonder if it can be revisited, especially in light of discussion of reorganization at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2012 June 7#Category:Roman Catholic Church organizations. I hope that Wikipedia's categories can be more descriptive of Church structure, rather than just lower-common-denominator. Elizium23 (talk) 13:38, 20 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Aldfrith of Northumbria

Just a message to let you know that I've scheduled Aldfrith of Northumbria as the TFA on 27th January 2013. Hope this is OK. I checked for deadlinks first and one was reporting dead but was very much alive, so I don't know what the problem there was... Regards, BencherliteTalk 00:18, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article List of papabili in the 2013 papal conclave is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of papabili in the 2013 papal conclave 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.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. -- --JamboQueen (talk) 08:40, 19 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (File:Heatwave (band photo, 1976).jpg)

Thanks for uploading File:Heatwave (band photo, 1976).jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:13, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Scottish counties - new user needing guidance

I have tried my best, as have several other editors, but it appears that this new(ish) user just refuses to familiarise himself with Wikipedia guidelines and policy. Could you give them a friendly helping hand? I suspect that their heart is in the right place, but if things continue in the same fashion the conclusion is inevitable:

Nice! I suspect that the local library in Bo'ness, where my mother (and her one Wally Dug) are, may have some info on them. So I will see what I can turn up. Thanks and all the best, Angus McLellan (Talk) 14:55, 31 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the redirect! Any good pictures? We have problems with that. Queen Victoria is not exactly a wally dug, (present picture). We work on the problem, but there is an issue with pict licences. There are some brown dog pictures, but it would be nice to have also some white, classical wally dugs too.

Main Page appearance: Áedán mac Gabráin

This is a note to let the main editors of Áedán mac Gabráin know that the article will be appearing as today's featured article on December 31, 2013. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page. If you prefer that the article appear as TFA on a different date, or not at all, please ask Bencherlite (talk · contribs). You can view the TFA blurb at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/December 31, 2013. If it needs tweaking, or if it needs rewording to match improvements to the article between now and its main page appearance, please edit it, following the instructions at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/requests/instructions. The blurb as it stands now is below:

Áedán mac Gabráin was a king of Dál Riata from circa 574 until circa 609. The kingdom of Dál Riata was situated in modern Argyll and Bute, Scotland, and parts of County Antrim, Ireland. Genealogies record that Áedán was a son of Gabrán mac Domangairt. He was a contemporary of Saint Columba, and much that is recorded of his life comes from hagiography such as Adomnán of Iona's Life of Saint Columba. Other sources include Bede's Historia ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum and Irish annals; none of the sources are contemporary. Áedán appears as a character in Old Irish and Middle Irish language works of prose and verse, some now lost. Áedán also appears in some Welsh sources, making him one of the few non-Britons to figure into Welsh tradition. The Irish annals record his campaigns against his neighbours, in Ireland, and in northern Britain, including expeditions to the Orkney Islands, the Isle of Man, and the east coast of Scotland. As recorded by Bede, Áedán was decisively defeated by Æthelfrith of Bernicia at the Battle of Degsastan. Áedán may have been deposed, or have abdicated, following this defeat, and the annals report nothing of him until his death around six years later. (Full article...)

And a happy New Year to you!

Hi Angus, Thanks for your seasonal message. We seem to have been here for years! I noticed the programme but didn't hear it 'live': but I'm glad to know that M.C. is propounding his wisdom. And, indeed, that you are. As usual I'm floundering about in domestic worries but I just like to dip in here from time to time with a nugget or two and greet old friends. Wikipedia seems to have come quite a way since I made my first edit in 2006 but bits of it are still recognizable. Sometimes, away from the contumacious highway, one finds oneself still in a cobbled street or on an old cart-track which hasn't been edited for ages, and there is a whiff of nostalgia about it. One hardly likes to disturb the dust! I hope you're in good sorts - all the best for 2014. yours Eebahgum (talk) 01:36, 11 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Philip of France, Archdeacon of Paris

The article Philip of France, Archdeacon of Paris has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unreferenced for over eight years, fails WP:V

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia 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. Stifle (talk) 11:51, 16 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I had a quick look and couldn't find anything significant to add, so no objection from me. Angus McLellan (Talk) 21:57, 17 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Extended confirmed protection

Hello, Angusmclellan. 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 Wikipedia: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)

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 Angusmclellan.

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)[reply]
