== Talk: subject listing, Pope Francis letter, 9/1/2015 ==
Why was "Pope Francis releases a letter granting priests the ability to grant absolution to women who have received an abortion." moved from religion to arts and culture? Thanks. [[User:RaqiwasSushi|RaqiwasSushi]] ([[User talk:RaqiwasSushi|talk]]) 07:07, 3 September 2015 (UTC)
*It is the general convention on the current affairs page that religious news be posted under Arts and culture. It might be a good case to put a discussion on the current affairs talk page as it does not always sit comfortably under that headline.

== [[Talk: Response to deletion of Aspektz]] ==

Aspektz is from the Don Mills area and North York, not like you mentioned in your rebuttal of the page.

The video from VideoFACT article where he is cited is found at  http://watch.muchmusic.com/video-playlists/video-playlistsmuchvibe/clip229247 or on youtube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_pvNq3sKQ_w

If you can OK it I will rebuild it different for him and jDiggz as well which has typos all over it

With a #1 single in Toronto and a video in rotation on Much Music, it is hardly a7 speedy removal. <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:216.176.62.184|216.176.62.184]] ([[User talk:216.176.62.184|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/216.176.62.184|contribs]]) </span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned -->

== Hostile user over on [[Portal:Current events]] ==

{{user|WikiTony}} has been causing quite a ruckus over at [[Portal:Current events]], using abusive edit summaries and violating [[WP:OWN]] by unilaterally adding and removing content (he has a rather long history of this, actually). It might be a good idea to keep an eye on things over there in case he continues - he has been warned twice. --'''[[User:Coredesat|Core]][[User talk:Coredesat|<font color="#3399FF">desat</font>]]''' 03:16, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

== about civility ==

Hi Capitalistroadster,

First, thank you for you concern for your wiki-brothers and sisters. That being said, you are the 4th person to approach me on the topic. As I told the previous 3 people, i do not appreciate being ganged up on. In your comment you even said "there are reports of..." This implies that you did not even research this on your own but are rather acting on rumor and gossip. If you had actually done your homework you would see that my 2 latest entries are both friendly. I even called one of them "extending the olive branch." Go ahead. Look it up, because you obviously did not before you made your comment on my talk page. I hope you put more effort into researching your topics for articles you edit than you did on this subject. This is not a personal attack, just a response to your criticism. My apologies if this is not written in the friendliest manner, but it is the only way i can defend myself against your allegations. Also, please keep in mind that a personal attack against me is what prompted me to be "not nice." I do not see anyone disciplining this other person. I have seen your name editing current events. Do you honestly believe that a plane crash in moscow that nobody died in (i dont think anyone was even hurt) is worthy of international attention on our current events page just because the BBC covers it (that was his actual reason for including it!)? I mean all of this in good faith and it is only because i respect your opinion that i am responding to your criticism. Peace and love, [[User:WikiTony|WikiTony]] 21:07, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

== Telectronics ==
Hi fellow Canberran.  You have [[Telectronics]] on your renovation rescue list.  I wondered if you would like to revisit.  I think we have been successful in de-esclating at that article with good references and firm application of policy.  A related article [[Noel Gray]] is in dire need of removation - written by his son I believe who set the tone with his opening gambit just over a year ago on the article talk page: ''There have been attempts to charcater assasinate my late father both before he died and now after his passing. I am going to deffend his repuattion and with the help of his collegues will prove beyond a reasonable doubt that he did do what his backgound claims.  Dam you who are trying to defame a dead man!''[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Noel_Gray&diff=prev&oldid=39999537]  The apparently same editor has questioned my agenda (and identity) at [[Talk:Nucleus Limited]] - I have responded there but really need someone else to take up the baton for Wikipedia verifiability.  I have appealed also at WP:AWNB.  Regards --[[User:Golden Wattle|Golden Wattle ]] <sup>[[User_talk:Golden Wattle|talk]]</sup> 22:30, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

== Effects of global warming on Australia page completely rewritten - 40 references ==

The article now has over 40 referenced statements and is based largely on a report prepared by Australia's premier scientific research organisation the [[CSIRO]]. The referencing of the article now compares very favourably with most other articles I have looked at. The article has no POV. The report on which it is based was prepared for the Business Round Table. It ought not be deleted now, even if it should have been before. Could each person who has recommended deletion please review and reconsider your view. Thanks [[User:Phanly|dinghy]] 07:03, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

== Notability - English football leagues and Australian sports leagues ==

Hi Capitalistroadster,

I am hoping to develop some notability guidelines for minor sports leagues in Australia, starting with [[Australian football]] and then using that as a base to bring other Australian sports in if needed. Two things:

*You mentioned [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mallee Football League 2007 Season|here]] a notability policy for English football leagues: Do you know where I may find it?
*Any contribution you would like to make to make to help develop guidelines would be much appreciated.

Thanks for your help.--[[User:Mattinbgn|Mattinbgn]]/<sup> [[User talk:Mattinbgn|talk]]</sup> 06:37, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

== march 25 ==

hey CR,


I think it was you who added the day March 25 to the current events portal. I'm pretty sure something is wrong with the display. I hope you are seeing what im seeing. It looks like the march 25 is not in the propper "box" like all the other days. Look specifically at how the bullets in the other days are directly under the greenish bar with the day on it. 3/25 is justified to the middle of the page (i think). I tried to fix it but I simply don't know how. Hope you can help. peace and love [[User:WikiTony|WikiTony]] 02:15, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

== FilmSpot ==

Hello. You recently deleted [[FilmSpot]] for being the recreation of deleted material. This was deleted through the proposed deletion system, so it does not fall under [[WP:CSD#G4]]. I was actually the one who proposed its deletion a few weeks ago, but now that its deletion is contested (through the recreation), its not appropriate to delete this without going through Afd. --- [[User:RockMFR|RockMFR]] 22:57, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

==Rabbi Apple==
Getting there. Dont rely on WW in Australia, it's considered indiscriminate. Just mention it once as a source for background uncontroversial stuff. There still some stuff like "he has always been interested in __" which is taken as puffery & could be cut. Otherwise it might work OK; I'll comment at the AfD  tomorrow. '''[[User:DGG|DGG]]''' 06:51, 18 June 2007 (UTC) It may be reliable, but it will be challenged by those who dont know it, --that's not an uncommon situation. If people want to remove the article they'll challenge anything they think might be a problem, and the safest thing to do is just to list it once. If you want to establish it as reliable, best way is to write a WP article about it--and since it is sure to be wanted again, that would be a very good idea--when you do, ask me if it seems solid--, but for the moment you first  want to get this article kept & the less arguing it takes, the better. '''[[User:DGG|DGG]]''' 06:59, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

'''Input from [[User:GarrieIrons|Garrie]]'''
:I have looked at the article as you requested.
:I have adjusted the capitalisation of the sections to be in line with [[WP:MSH]]. Basically, section headings use the same capitalisation as article headings ie "Religious leadership" not "Religious Leadership".
:The article has '''improved dramatically''' since it was [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Raymond_Apple_%28rabbi%29&oldid=138862105 listed for AfD]. In line with [[WP:N]], it provides evidence that Apple has been the subject of a wide range of coverage in a wide range of publications.
:Is there a Jewish wikiproject that could look at getting an article up for the following, which seem important:
*Great Synagogue of Sydney
*Sydney Beth Din

:Who do you think would be appropriate to come up with an article for [[Australian Council of Christians and Jews]]?

:While he was an Army Chaplain, did he stay as a Captain the whole time or did his appointment as senior rabbi bring recognition through millitary rank? (All chaplians enter as Captains, I think some move up through the rank structure pretty much in an honorary manner but they are well regarded irrespective of rank worn.

:Does he continue to write in his retirement? "He's only 72!"
:A lot more is said about his website, than any of his books individually.

:The references to the National Library of Australia are inconsistent. I suggest the following format:
<nowiki>''The Jewish Way: Jews and Judaism in Australia'' (2004) <ref>[http://catalogue.nla.gov.au/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?SC=Author&SA=Apple%2C%20Raymond%2C&PID=8054&BROWSE=2&HC=1&SID=2 ''''The Jewish Way: Jews and Judaism in Australia'' catalogue entry at National Library of Australia website]</ref></nowiki>
:You want to show individual links so you can't combine them.
:I don't think there are too many uses of the same reference source to split the notes from the references.

:Reference 10 is to a google cached search. I don't know if that makes it as a [[WP:RS|reliable source]]? Maybe it should be be copied to [http://www.archive-it.org/ Archive-it] instead.

:Have you installed the widget for doing an [[User:AndyZ/peerreviewer|automated peer review]]? I have done one, you might like to see [[User:GarrieIrons/Apple APR|the results]]. It comes up pretty positively, but has some positive suggestions.

:[[User:RandomHumanoid]] left a comment at the talk page you might need to be jewish or a priest to understand. I certainly don't understand it, but I'm not into organised religion.

:I hope my comments were what you were looking for, "I have rewritten this article with references. I would be grateful if you could take a look" is a bit cryptic - I didn't know if it was a "how am I going so far" or a "is it good enough yet"? The article is well and truely "good enough" but it ''could be better'' if you are dedicated to improving it. Nobody would blame you for stopping now.
:Good work at keeping the article from deletion. Personally I !voted speedy delete simply because of the comment at the AfD that the speedy tag was removed incorrectly without comment / discussion, and I will always vote that way unless it was a blindingly inappropriate use of a speedy tag.[[User:GarrieIrons|Ga]][[User_talk:GarrieIrons|rr]][[Special:Contributions/GarrieIrons|ie]] 23:35, 19 June 2007 (UTC)

Hi Capitalistroadster
I have had a look at the update you have made and it looks pretty good.
I'm not sure it completely addresses the issue of the notability but i think the deletion debate can decide on that.
Anyway, keep up the good work

==[[Portal:Current events]]==
When I go to [[Portal:Current events]], the latest version that I see says July 19, Wednesday (I know the 19th was a Thursday), and neither the 19th nor the 20th is transcluded.  When I go to the history, I see that you added the entries for the 19th and 20th, and when I see the version of the page that is the result of your last three edits, it clearly shows the 20th, and it shows the 19th as Thursday.  Any clues as to why this is happening?  My computer was turned off overnight and this is the first time I've gone to the Current events page since I rebooted.  Help?  [[User:Corvus cornix|Corvus cornix]] 21:15, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

OK, I changed "Portal:Current events/Inclusion|2007|07|20" to "Portal:Current events/Inclusion", and that seems to work.  [[User:Corvus cornix|Corvus cornix]] 21:34, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

I don't know if it's the fact that I'm at another computer (although they both use IE7), or because you re-edited the page with the latest version, but it looks okay now.  [[User:Corvus cornix|Corvus cornix]] 01:31, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

Suggestion: since there are a number of people around unfamiliar with the academic world who do not recognize that even a full professor at a major university is likely to be notable, and who frequently nominate these articles for deletion--sometimes even by Speedy--it would b advisable to include a little more info: their major publications, their honors and awards, the most important work they did with a link to the WP article on the subject, etc. I always try to defend these articles, but it is even better if they are never nominated--and this way they will be more informative as well.'''[[User:DGG|DGG]]''' ([[User talk:DGG|talk]]) 23:08, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

== Peter Franklin Jr ==

Delete. Article contains no references from reliable sources and I can find none. It amused me that the article states that Franklin was born in 1991 and his career as a racing car driver began in 1994 which seems implausible

Thats what you wrote, about Peter, He bagan Go-Kart racing at 3 years of age, You ever herd the Late Formula 1 great, Senna, well he bagan racing at 3, Most motor racing greats started at 3, which is the youngest aloud, although know in Australia you have to be 6, but that only come in around 1999.

So it is not implausible, get your facts right.

== Albert Henry ==

Technically, I didn't withdraw the nomination but I probably should have and it would have been speedclosed in any case. I ran across it while spellchecking random articles, noticed it was prodded for notability and myself suspected he was notable so I removed the prod. However, I assumed the editor who added the prod had a good faith reason to think he wasn't so I sent it to AFD to both give him his shot and to get opinions from more experienced editors on whether or not the subject is notable.

I was thinking about doing that for some other prodded articles. Do you think that's a good idea or is it best just to remove the prod and let the prodder AFD it if he really wants it gone? --[[User:Ron Ritzman|Ron Ritzman]] 02:55, 15 August 2007 (UTC)

== US Electoral College ==

I removed your item on [[Portal:Current events]] on the US Electoral College because while it mentioned that the electors were meeting today, it was primarily and titled as an op-ed and I don't think opinion pieces should be in CE. Per [[WP:RS]], "Opinion pieces are only reliable for statements as to the opinion of their authors, not for statements of fact". 

I looked around for a news article on the Electoral College meeting today and all were either primarily opinion pieces as well, or a short statement about the electors voting in what is primarily a formality with a bit of history, which is not a sufficiently notable event. A faithless elector would likely not be notable either, unless it significantly changed the landscape, something highly unlikely in this election.

I agree with the sentiments of the NYT op-ed and I think that it should be noted within Wikipedia, but I would suggest using it and sources like it to improve [[US Electoral College]], citing significant movements to alter the status quo.

== CE Calendar: While we were sleeping ==

Check the following items out:

<b>
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Portal%3ACurrent_events%2FCalendar&action=history&year=2008&month=2&limit=6
</b>

and

<b>
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Portal:Current_events/Calendar&diff=270146487&oldid=193846104
</b>

Apparently, an anon user added "year" to the parsed "Date:" readout just under a year ago, probably becuase the term "Date:" is defined as a month, the ordinal day of a month, and a year. Nobody seemed to care. I just now noticed this 'cause currently the "Date:" readout (with my monobook css skin) is very tight, almost forces a line break.
It got me thinking about adding a parser function or two to the CE Calendar to just streamline it a little more (without slowing the server[s] down), and changing the word "Date:" to "Day:", thereby restoring the less crowded design you last edited on 2/24/08 @ 22:12 UTC. That's the bottom edit on that history query result.

I'll be experimenting with this overnight, and be back in touch. There's no talk page for the CE Cal as it is, so I may move this talk item there if it suits you. Or any other interested party.

====<u>Followup</u>====

Did some brainstorming about the thing, and invented something. [[Wikipedia:Portal_guidelines#Queue_features_in_advance| A '''self-updating''']] calendar (with some advance editing req'd).

Would like to have your input '''''[[Portal talk:Current events/Calendar|here,]]''''' where you can have a look.

[[User:Schweiwikist|Schweiwikist]] ([[User talk:Schweiwikist|talk]]) 21:30, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

====<u>Update: rendered a Golden master</u>====

This can be found '''''[[User:Schweiwikist/CECalendarGM|here.]]'''''

Now the sublinked day-of-year pages need to be ported from the User space to the portal space.

I'm thinking of bringing this online for real in the same manner as DST; <s>over Sat nite to Sunday.</s> There's plenty of docs to peruse (as visible docs and commenting in the page-code), so anybody who's done this can re-orient themselves.

Now if only the crystal ball editors would leave future months alone till they start. I'll put that discussion somewhere else.

The front end will look no different. It's just an auto-updating transclusion, like other parts of the portal. A digital "tear-off" day-by-day calendar.

BTW, won't be at a computer at 00:00 UTC this evening, looks like. <br/><br/> - - - [[User:Schweiwikist|Schweiwikist]] ([[User talk:Schweiwikist|talk]]) 22:27, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
====<u>Update: As ''dynamic'' as a portal box can get</u>====
Added "noincluded" navigation controls to the individual calendar subpages, and then cooked up expiration-based {{tl|Db-g7}} tagging (gradually folding in that added code on each upcoming day). The tag only appears when the portal box page for the day "goes stale", and ceases rendering on the portal @ midnight UTC. Now you can set, check, double-check, and forget&mdash;a batch of days at a time, by copying/pasting and making a few simple edits. Very cool.<br/>

. . . in 20 minutes. He or she is somewhere north of you, possibly further east (didn't check). So you can [[User Talk:Manop|thank them.]]

Here's the code that works every time as long as you are past 00:00:00 UTC, which for you is well into the day:

<pre>
{{Portal:Current events/DateHeader2|{{subst:CURRENTYEAR}}|{{subst:CURRENTMONTH}}|{{subst:CURRENTDAY}}}}
<!-- All news items below this line -->
*<!--First item goes here. (remove this please)-->
<!-- All news items above this line -->|}
</pre>

Just gotta use that preview button. Note the extra "|}" at the end, which closes the box around that day.
On Sunday, the first line will read:

<pre>
{{Portal:Current events/DateHeader2|2009|4|5}}
</pre>

which produces:

{{Current events header|2009|4|5}}
|}<!-- this line is necessary to close the box -->


Cool, huh? You can create the page ''before'' midnight UTC, but you'll have to enter the correct numbers manually for year|month|day. It won't display on [[Portal:Current events|Current events]] until the UTC clock "strikes 12".

== Admin help needed ==

Hi Cap -I've got a problem which needs an uninvolved admin's help. There's a problem user at [[South Island nationalism]]. He's playing within the rules, but he's definitely "[[WP:GAME|playing]]". A few months ago, [[User:Teroamahai]] seems to have noticed that [[South Island nationalism]] existed and created his own [[North Island nationalism]], which was quickly deleted (there's no such movement). Since then, he's been active at the SI-nat article, firstly launching an attack on it in the talk page, then adding incorrect information (with support from an anon, which is almost certainly the same editor). He's now started "working to rule" by excising large chunks of the article because they weren't well-sourced. That's certainly within WP's policies and guidelines, but it's the way it's being done, after an extremely cursory note on the talk page, that is a cause for concern, as is his contention that he'll remove more ''unless someone can think up a reasonable reason'' for their inclusion (he's never listened to reasonable reason regarding the article in the past, it's to be seriously doubted that he will now).

Problem is, I'm too involved to do much - I've made quite a lot of edits to the page, and have been involved in South Island movements (including designing one of the flags shown on the page). I've protected the page after the latest bout of removals - something I probably shouldn't have done, though I've made a reasonable justification for it on the talk page, I think. Can I ask you to have a look at the page and remove my protection, and either leave it unprotected or add your own protection as you see fit? Cheers, and sorry to get someone else involved in this!

== MSU Interview ==

Dear Capitalistroadster,


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 [[Wikipedia:Village_pump_(proposals)/Archive_82#Learn_to_be_a_Wikipedia_Administrator_-_New_class_at_MSU|HERE]], were 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 [[User:Jaobar/Admins_to_Interview_List_1|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 --[[User:Jaobar|Jaobar]] ([[User talk:Jaobar|talk]]) 21:18, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

[[Username: Capitalistroadster]], I don't know the protocol for discussing on the Current Events Portal page, so I figured the next best place is on your talk page. Thanks for putting up the note about the Costa Rican election tomorrow. I think that an addition could be made to the headline so that it reads as follows: ''<nowiki>Voters in [[Costa Rica]] go to the polls for a general election that will break the 66-year rule of the country's two main political parties. [[Luis Guillermo Solís]] is the only presidential candidate left in the race following the withdrawal of [[Johnny Araya]](BBC)</nowiki>'' 

I don't really know how much space you have to work with there, but this is a notable because it will be the first time in 66 years that a party other than [[National Liberation Party (Costa Rica)|National Liberation Party]] and the [[Social Christian Unity Party]] controls the presidency (The [[Citizens' Action Party]]).

== i believe that you should see this ani discussion ==

an editor has decided on his own to change the format of the Events portal by adding spaces after asterics, adding a space after all events, and also removing subsection heading "as he sees fit" to do so. I have begun an ani to discuss his changes against established consensus that he apparantly thinks his NEW version is the consensus. the ani is here

Can you put up another reference for this story. Wall Street Journal is enforcing its subscriber mandate. I haven't be able to access anything there since late August.

Hello, just a note on the French Drug Trial -- it was misreported as a cannabinoid derived drug in early reports.  Please see the Guardian article.  The trial drug was an FAAH inhibitor, thus acting on the endocannabinoid system.  No cannabis involved, just jamming up peoples' neurotransmitter degradation systems.  Poor guys that sucks.

== Extended confirmed protection ==

{{ivmbox|1=Hello, Capitalistroadster. This message is intended to notify administrators of important changes to the protection policy.

[[WP:BLUELOCK|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 [[WP:EXTENDEDCONFIRMED|"extended confirmed" user right]] was created for this purpose. The protection level was created following [[Wikipedia:Village pump (proposals)/Archive 129#New usergroup with autopromotion to implement arbitration "30-500" bans as a page protection|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, [[WP:ECP2016|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 [[User:MusikBot/ECPMonitor/Report|a report]], which is transcluded onto the noticeboard.
Please review [[Wikipedia:Protection policy#Extended confirmed protection|the protection policy]] carefully before using this new level of protection on pages. Thank you. <br><small>This message was sent to the administrators' [[Wikipedia:Administrators/Message list|mass message list]].

== Two-Factor Authentication now available for admins ==

Hello,

Please note that [[Time-based One-time Password Algorithm|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 [[Special:Preferences|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 [[Help:Two-factor authentication|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 [[Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard#Two-Factor_Authentication_now_available_for_admins|thread on the administrators' noticeboard]].

== A new user right for New Page Patrollers ==

Hi {{BASEPAGENAME}}.

A new user group, [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Reviewers|'''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 [[Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/New page reviewer|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 [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Templates|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]]. <small>''(Sent to all admins)''</small>.[[User:MediaWiki message delivery|MediaWiki message delivery]] ([[User talk:MediaWiki message delivery|talk]]) 13:47, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

===Fair Use in Australia campaign update===

:I'm writing you this followup message, as [[Wikipedia:Australian_Wikipedians%27_notice_board/Archive_49#Fair_use_campaign:_next_steps|you took the time to vote in support]] of a Wikipedia banner campaign for the introduction of Fair Use in Australia. 

:After much planning and coordination with the WMF, [[w:Australian Digital Alliance|Australian Digital Alliance]], and [[w:Electronic Frontiers Australia|Electronic Frontiers Australia]], as of Monday the banner-campaign is active on English Wikipedia to a portion of logged-out readers in Australia ([[m:Talk:FairCopyrightOz#Fair Use in Australia campaign|technical details]]). The banners direct people to this page on Meta: '''[[m:FairCopyrightOz|FairCopyrightOz]]'''. That page, alongside lots of information, further directs people towards the campaign website faircopyright.org.au [https://www.faircopyright.org.au/take-action/#emailform where Australians are invited to write to their local MP to express support of Fair Use]. If you are interested in supporting this campaign, please, send a letter yourself using the template letter provided at that link.

:Furthermore, and with the support of the ADA & EFA, we have received fantastic media coverage - with article "[http://www.smh.com.au/federal-politics/political-news/fair-use-wikipedia-targets-australians-in-bid-to-change-the-law-20170521-gw9kzq.html Fair Use: Wikipedia targets Australians in bid to change the law]" appearing on page 2 of the Sydney Morning Herald and page 10 of the Melbourne Age on Monday's edition. It was for a time the 3rd most read article the Fairfax website, and ''Fair Use'' was "trending" on Twitter in Australia. We are running the account [https://twitter.com/faircopyrightoz @FairCopyrightOz] on twitter, and we are tracking other press-mentions [[m:Talk:FairCopyrightOz#Press mentions|on the talkpage on Meta]]. 

:Today, day 2, we published a detailed post about the campaign [https://blog.wikimedia.org/2017/05/22/australia-fair-use/ on the Wikimedia Blog], ran [https://www.reddit.com/r/australia/comments/6ct2w0/we_are_from_wikipedia_the_ada_and_efa_australians/ an "Ask Me Anything" Q&A session] on the Australia page in Reddit, and [by happy coincidence of timing] the article [[History of fair use proposals in Australia]] appeared on the en.wp mainpage as a ''Did You Know''. [The creation of that "history of..." article was a specific request arising from in the community consultation in which you voted].

:And, most importantly, in a little more than a day nearly 800 letters to MPs have been sent encouraging them to support the Productivity Commission's recommendation to adopt Fair Use in Australia. I urge you - '''[https://www.faircopyright.org.au/take-action/#emailform please add your own message]'''.

Hello, 

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 Wikipedia administrators in recognizing and mitigating things like sockpuppetry, vandalism, and harassment. 

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. 

<big>To take the survey sign up '''[[en:Wikipedia:Community health initiative on English Wikipedia/Administrator confidence survey|here]]''' and we will send you a link to the form.</big>

Hey Capitalistroadster, I'm looking for some help updating articles for [[Craig B. Thompson]], [[José Baselga]], and [[Joan Massagué Solé]], who are all executives at [[Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center]]. The articles' overall quality was a little lacking, so I've been working on adding content and supporting it with better references, particularly in the biographical and scientific contributions sections. I saw you're a member of [[WP:BIOGRAPHY]] and I was hoping you could review my proposed changes. I've posted on their respective talk pages, as well as [[Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Biography/Science_and_academia#Updating_articles_for_MSK_executives|the WP:ACADEMICS talk page]], but I've been having trouble getting any kind of feedback from anyone. I've got their respective sandboxes here: [[User:FacultiesIntact/sandbox/Craig_B._Thompson|Thompson]], [[User:FacultiesIntact/sandbox/José_Baselga|Baselga]], [[User:FacultiesIntact/sandbox/Joan_Massagué_Solé|Massagué]].

; Why have I received this message?
: All administrators are receiving it.

; What prompted you to send this message?
: Recently, several Wikipedia admin accounts were compromised.  The admin accounts were [[WP:LEVEL1|desysopped on an emergency basis]].  In the past, the Committee often resysopped admin accounts as a matter of course once the admin was back in control of their account.  The committee has updated its guidelines.  Admins may now be required to undergo a fresh [[WP:RFA|Request for Adminship (RfA)]] after losing control of their account.

; What do I need to do?
: Only to follow the instructions in this message.
:# Check that your password is unique (not reused across sites).
:# Check that your password is strong (not simple or guessable).
:# Enable Two-factor authentication (2FA), if you can, to create a second hurdle for attackers.

; How can I find out more about two-factor authentication (2FA)?
: You can find out more about 2FA at [[m:2FA]].

== 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 [[Wikipedia:Administrators#Security|required]] to "have strong passwords and [[Wikipedia:Personal security practices|follow appropriate personal security practices]]." We have [[Special:Permalink/891851004#Return of permissions for compromised administrator accounts|updated]] our procedures to ensure that we enforce these policies more strictly in the future. The policies themselves have not changed. In particular, [[WP:2FA|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, -[[User:Cameron11598|Cameron11598]] 21:03, 4 May 2019 (UTC)</small>

== Article for Review == 

Hi Capitalistroadster,
recently I created my first article on the English Wikipedia on [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Jean-Fran%C3%A7ois_Gari%C3%A9py Jean-Francois Gariepy], a French Canadian far-right scientist and commentator. As you are interested in biographies as well, I was wondering if you would mind helping me review the article. In case you're busy, I would also appreciate if you could direct me to someone else who could assist me in optimizing the article as I'm not familiar with the English Wiki.
Thanks a lot and best regards

== Administrators will no longer be [[WP:AUTOP|autopatrolled]] ==

A [[Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship/2021_review/Proposals#Passed:_7D_Remove_autopatrolled_from_default_toolkit|recently closed]] Request for Comment (RFC) reached consensus to remove [[WP:Autopatrolled|Autopatrolled]] from the administrator user group. You may, similarly as with [[WP:EFM|Edit Filter Manager]], choose to [[Special:UserRights/{{BASEPAGENAME}}|self-assign]] this permission to yourself. This will be implemented the week of December 13th, but if you wish to self-assign you may do so now. To find out when the change has gone live or if you have any questions please visit the [[Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard#Administrators_will_no_longer_be_autopatrolled|Administrator's Noticeboard]]. 20:05, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

== How we will see unregistered users ==

<section begin=content/>
Hi!

You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.

When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.

Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin '''will still be able to access the IP'''. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on [[m:IP Editing: Privacy Enhancement and Abuse Mitigation/Improving tools|better tools]] to help.

If you have not seen it before, you can [[m:IP Editing: Privacy Enhancement and Abuse Mitigation|read more on Meta]]. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can [[m:Global message delivery/Targets/Tech ambassadors|subscribe]] to [[m:Tech/News|the weekly technical newsletter]].

We have [[m:IP Editing: Privacy Enhancement and Abuse Mitigation#IP Masking Implementation Approaches (FAQ)|two suggested ways]] this identity could work. '''We would appreciate your feedback''' on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can [[m:Talk:IP Editing: Privacy Enhancement and Abuse Mitigation|let us know on the talk page]]. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.

Thank you.

== New administrator activity requirement ==

{{ivmbox|The administrator policy has been updated with new [[Wikipedia:Administrators#Procedural_removal_for_inactive_administrators|activity requirements]] following a successful [[Wikipedia:Village pump (policy)/Request for comment on administrator activity requirements|Request for Comment]].

Beginning January 1, 2023, administrators who meet one or both of the following criteria may be desysopped for inactivity if they have:
#Made neither edits nor administrative actions for at least a 12-month period OR
#Made fewer than 100 edits over a 60-month period 

Administrators at risk for being desysopped under these criteria will continue to be notified ahead of time. Thank you for your continued work.

== Pending suspension of administrative permissions due to inactivity ==


[[File:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]]
Established [[Wikipedia:Administrators#Procedural removal for inactive administrators|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&#32;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 [[Wikipedia: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 [[Wikipedia:Bureaucrats' noticeboard|the bureaucrats' noticeboard]].
