Hello, this is to inform you that the image <nowiki>[[Image:UD Vecindario kits 2008-09.png]]</nowiki> has been listed for deletion.

== List of current world boxing champions ==

Hello, east718, how are things? Sorry bothering you, but there's a problem on the above-mentioned list with somebody always reverting things like Rigoberto Álvarez, who is the WBA's interim champ at 154 lb., which you can see on the latest rankings from last Thursday, see: http://wbanews.com/artman/uploads/1/WBA_09-10_1.PDF , and he's also constantly putting in wrong dates and so on... Could you have a look at the history of the list and maybe give him a first warning? I don't really like to ask you, but you're the only mod I know... ;-)

== Image on Wiki: Racing UK ==

Hi There,

The image you are using on our page for Racing UK is out of date. Can you please remove it?
Also, the web address is wrong, it is actually www.racinguk.com, not racinguk.tv
Finally, we are not in any way associated with the Racing Post, so can you remove that reference too?

If you have any questions do not hesitate getting back in touch

Many thanks,
Ellen Quinn

== List of current world boxing champions ==

Hello, east718! Can you please have a look at the discussion page of the mentioned site, under point number 4, there are people who do not want the "nb" system anymore that you created a few years back. I'm absolutely 100% pro this system for the list, as nowadays, everybody is a "Super" or "Unified" or "Interim" champion, I think it would be too much to insert it in every boxer's case, the (featured) list would be overloaded... I think people are now used to our system, why change a "winning team"?

== Image file removal ==

Hi, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Brac-logo.png is the old logo of BRAC. We changed the logo officially on 2nd February, 2010. The new logo is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:BRAC-logo.png which is already assigned on the pages where the old logo existed. Problem is when people search for BRAC logo the old logo link comes on up front resulting confusion for the visitors. So, please delete the old logo. Thanks much.

Our next '''[[Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC|Wikipedia NYC Meetup]]''' is this weekend on Saturday Dec 4 at [[Brooklyn Museum]] during their awesome [http://www.brooklynmuseum.org/visit/first_saturdays.php First Saturdays] program, starting at 5 PM.

A particular highlight for the wiki crowd will be '[http://www.brooklynmuseum.org/exhibitions/seductive_subversion/ Seductive Subversion: Women Pop Artists, 1958–1968]', and the accompanying "[http://www.brooklynmuseum.org/exhibitions/seductive_subversion/wiki/ WikiPop]" project, with specially-created Wikipedia articles on the artists displayed on iPads in the gallery.

This will be a museum touring and partying meetup, so no excuses about being a shy newbie this time. Bring a friend too!

There are a truckload of images you have uploaded of wrestling figures, which you have claimed to have OTRS permission but not provided the ticket number. My bot just replaced several of them with the commons equivalent (to which the images were moved) [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:East718/Images&action=history].

== Your deletion of the Jolly Roger's Cookbook article, some time in 2007... ==

I can't find the contents of the article you have delted but I can read that you found it to be an advertisment for a textfile...

I can assure you that the text file that comes up at http://www.textfiles.com/anarchy/JOLLYROGER/ is an exact copy of the dog eared, dot matrix printed, tractor feed paper copy I received in '88.

That textfile collection is as legendary as The Anarchist's Cookbook or any other subversive intruction manual from the early '80s and thus deserves a mention on your Wiki.  <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/118.90.111.107|118.90.111.107]] ([[User talk:118.90.111.107|talk]]) 08:52, 2 January 2011 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

:*I am not East718 but I found your question interesting.
:*An archive of the article can be found at:
:http://web.archive.org/web/20071118102602/http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jolly_Roger%27s_Cookbook
:*Some documentation of the book's fame or notoriety may increase the chances of maintaining an article at Wikipedia: the archived version neither cites any [[WP:RS|reliable sources]] nor asserts [[WP:NOTE|notability]] according to the community's often strict standards.  See also [[Wikipedia:Notability (books)]].
::* Given the underground, countercultural, BBS-based nature of the beast, I'm having trouble thinking of ways in which this could even be possible to satisfy, other than raising a consensus of diverse contributors (does WP even allow for that?). There might not be any documentary evidence to be ''had'' - the existence and legend of the JRCB is one of the closer things to an oral history (for want of a better description) possessed by the transitional generation of the early information age. No-one who was involved with its spread particularly WANTED there to be any trace of such, after all, or to acknowledge its existence or their possession of it in a public forum.
::: It existed in computer-space, on discs and on dial-up servers, during a period of great change and upheaval in terms of platforms, storage formats, communications methods, general culture, etc, and when the world was far less connected than it is now. There may be enough people now who still have a computer from 10 years ago, and all their files on a memory stick bought at the same time that will still work just dandy on a modern machine (and that old computer may still be able to access and use this site); but, the same could not be said in 1997 (let alone 2007!) of systems, storage media, or online resources from 1987, which would be variously hideously and unusably out of date, so dated as to be unreadable in modern machines (or indeed, suffering physical bit-rot), or long dead and gone and no longer connected to an operating phone line, having been superceded by the WWW or just seeing their owners growing up, moving house, getting married, being arrested, dying, etc, with no concept of things existing "in the cloud", and their continued survival entirely dependent on some random having taken a copy. It was never compiled into a book or journal, never printed, never got an ISBN, never went into the Congressional Library (quite obviously!). And personal computers weren't quite as widespread a thing as they are now, still being a bit of a geek's preserve, and any kind of remote, telephonic connection far, far moreso (no facebook, no wikipedia, etc... not even tumblr - nowhere for teenage girls to log onto with their macbooks and iphones to squee over their pop idols).
::: That there are yet people here from around the world (even if only a few, so far - given that, as the wikipedia article was deleted 7 years ago, they have to run across it by chance on this particular talk page...) debating it the better part of 30 years after it was first written must be a mark of some kind of historical worth? Before the rest of us who know anything about it ourselves die, or at least the memory fades so much that our accounts become gradually less reliable and useful if anyone should suddenly take it upon themselves to grab a videocamera and make an arthouse documentary film that would validate all this to the standards being demanded?
::: All I can say is that it was definitely well known in my early years at secondary school, in the middle of suburban England, before anyone outside of university research departments had even heard of the internet. To make it from the American gen-X phreaker scene to being quietly passed around amongst close friends, on unlabelled DSDD floppies in that parochial schoolyard, is a heck of an achievement for something with no noteriety at all. I'd contend there are probably a lot of published books (and, moreover, video games) that have small side-note articles here that garnered less attention than the JR did at the time.
::: Also, as an aside, I'm heartened to see it being referred to in this way, as when I later went to look for it on the internet - having eventually got access to it, and having lost my old disc-based, never-printed copy of the "book" - it was only ever referred to as the ''Anarchist's'' Cookbook, with the piratical epithet having gone missing along the way.
::: And, PS: "advertisement for a textfile" ... what, really? Take a moment and think about the absurdity of that argument. How do you "advertise" a now-historical, not commercially published text, or gain anything from its greater publicity?

Apparently you have now twice removed the photo of the Ash Grove (music club).  I thought I made it abundantly clear that Ed Pearl owns the rights to the photo and he explicitly authorized me to upload it into Wikipedia.  I have known the owner of the photo for over 40 years.  Is removing this photo an example of compulsive overpolicing of photos?  Do you have some specific grievance here?  Perhaps you prefer the article not be illustrated.

==Better source request for File:TheTwilightZoneLogo.png==

Thanks for uploading '''[[:File:TheTwilightZoneLogo.png]]'''. You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the [[copyright]] status of the image because the source is incomplete.  Please consider clarifying the ''exact'' source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact Web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain or the URL of the image file itself.  Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following [{{fullurl:Special:Log|type=upload&user={{PAGENAMEE}}}} this link]. If you have any questions please ask them at the [[Wikipedia:Media copyright questions|Media copyright questions page]] or me at my talk page. Thank you.

==replacement needed for [[:File:Detasemen Khusus 88 operators.jpg]]==

I just came across this:
    {{quote|(this file was used on this page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detachment_88)}}

I have looked for this file on the commons to replace it in the article which refers to it, but have not found it. Does anyone know how to undo this deletion? 
It seems to me that deleting a file because it is a duplicate without correcting the link is just vandalism. Please folks, if you do one part then you should do the rest too. Djapa Owen 22:44, 4 February 2012 (UTC)

== MSU Interview ==

Dear East718,

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]], 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[[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]])  <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Chlopeck|Chlopeck]] ([[User talk:Chlopeck|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Chlopeck|contribs]]) 23:16, 14 February 2012 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

==Abuse Filter on the Article Feedback Tool==
Hey there :). You're being contacted because you're an edit filter manager, At the moment, we're developing [[WP:AFT5|Version 5 of the Article Feedback Tool]], which you may or may not have heard about. If you haven't; for the first time, this will involve a free-text box where readers can submit comments :). Obviously, there's going to be junk, and we want to minimise that junk. To do so, we're working the Abuse Filter into the tool.

For this to work, we need people to write and maintain filters. I'd be very grateful if you could take a look at the discussion '''[[Wikipedia_talk:Article_Feedback_Tool/Version_5#Abuse_Filters|here]]''' and the attached docs, and comment and contribute!

==Non-free rationale for File:Swheader.jpg==
[[File:Copyright-problem.svg|64px|left|alt=|link=]]
Thanks for uploading or contributing to '''[[:File:Swheader.jpg]]'''. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under [[WP:NFCC|non-free content criteria]], but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to [[:File:Swheader.jpg|the file description page]], and edit it to include a [[Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline|non-free rationale]].

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "[[Special:Contributions/East718|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 any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Images.2FMedia|criteria for speedy deletion]]. If the file is already gone, you can still make a [[Wikipedia:Requests for undeletion|request for undeletion]] and ask for a chance to fix the problem.<!-- Template:You can request undeletion --> If you have any questions, please ask them at the [[Wikipedia:media copyright questions|Media copyright questions page]].

== Jeremiah Metcalf ==

I was considering creating a page for Jeremiah Metcalf, but I see that you were the admin that deleted a previous attempt.  Per [[WP:NMMA]] a fighter is presumed notable if they  fought at least three (3) professional fights for a top-tier MMA organization.  [[WP:MMATIER]] lists [[Strikeforce]] as a top-tier MMA organization.  Jeremiah Metcalf has had 3 fights in Strikeforce - one on October 7, 2006; once on November 16, 2007; and once on June 27, 2008 (see http://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Jeremiah-Metcalf-16262).  Therefore, it would seem that he meets [[WP:NMMA]] and thus has a presumption of meeting [[WP:GNG]] according to [[WP:SPORTCRIT]].  Before creating this page, I wanted to find out some more information on why it was deleted and if the 3 fights in Strikeforce in view of WP:NMMA were considered. [[User:RonSigPi|RonSigPi]] ([[User talk:RonSigPi|talk]]) 12:16, 12 April 2013 (UTC)

Hi, I have been recently researching the [[Denise Milani]] case on Wikipedia, and saw that her article was deleted/re-created countless of times. (I read most of the discussions, including three AfD's and several heated threads on admin's noticeboard.) At that time, the deletion might have been reasonable, due to the lack of reliable sourcing. However, I noticed that the situation has changed, because in 2012 and 2013 she was covered by [[The Independent]] ([http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/the-denise-milani-conspiracy-honey-trap-professor-gets-five-years-in-argentina-jail-8340525.html]), [[The New York Times]] ([http://www.nytimes.com/2013/03/10/magazine/the-professor-the-bikini-model-and-the-suitcase-full-of-trouble.html?pagewanted=all&_r=1&]), [[Daily Mail]] ([http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2183861/Denise-Milani-Bikini-model-terrified-drugs-gang-used-honeytrap-science-professor.html]), and [[Jezebel (website)|Jezebel]] ([http://jezebel.com/5989667/manti-tenoooo-physicist-jailed-for-unwittingly-smuggling-coke-on-behalf-of-internet-girlfriend]). In addition, she has been covered by [[AskMen]] ([http://www.askmen.com/celebs/women/models_300/390_denise_milani.html], [http://www.askmen.com/entertainment/special_feature_3700/3770_denise-milani-a-better-look.html]), [[FHM]] ([http://www.fhm.com/girls/covergirls/denise-milani]), Mandatory ([http://www.mandatory.com/girls/denise-milani/]), and MadeMan ([http://www.mademan.com/chickipedia/denise-milani/]). I think this is enough evidence to establish her notability, so I kindly request the removal of protection from her article.

I have left the same message at [[User:Jarry1250]]'s talk page, but since you were the original protecting editor of the article, he referred me to you. Thanks. --'''[[User:Aeternus|Λeternus]]''' [[User talk:Aeternus|<sup>(talk)</sup>]] 22:53, 23 August 2014 (UTC)
:Hi, I'm the original protecting admin only because my bot mass-protected pages that were on the old [[Wikipedia:Protected titles/Historical|WP:JUPE]] list (this was used before the "protect from creation" feature existed). I can't find the original admin who added it to the jupe list but it was so long ago that I doubt anybody would mind if any admin unprotected it or a deletion review was opened. <span style="white-space:nowrap">— [[user:east718|<font color="#000">east718</font>]] &#124; [[user talk:east718#top|<font color="#000">talk</font>]] &#124; 07:43, 24 August 2014 (UTC)</span>

== Thank you, and oversight ==

Hello! Thank you again very much for looking at the 3RR report I filed. I responded to it, letting you know of a possible oversight. It appears you missed a revert QuackGuru made in that edit (POV tag removal) because of some of his editing habits. Anyway, after nobody responded to the last report, I am especially glad to have had you take a look at it this time! Thanks again!

Hi, I was going to create a redirect for [[WP:FA]] as noted [[Wikipedia_talk:Featured_articles#redirect_appropriate.3F|here]], but apparently you previously deleted such a page. Is the redirect still inappropriate? I argue [[Wikipedia:Redirect#Reasons_for_not_deleting|point 5]].

The title article has over 75 edits, about half of which are full or partial reversions in the 24 hours since protection was lifted. In declining a request by several editors to extend protection, Admin East718 said s/he would instead block those engaged in edit warring. 

I appreciate that East is working as a volunteer and do not mean to substitute my judgement for his/hers, but am confused to now find a note on his/her page that s/he is away from the Wiki for an extended time. The protection worked very well to calm an ugly situation, and was actually supported by most of the page editors.  If reprotection is deemed inappropriate, could someone at least drop by and issue some warnings?

:::*The third one is over the word "simulates" and is exceedingly lame.
:::Most of the edit warring was before I handled the RFPP request, and only one person has made more than one revert since then. Additionally, the pace of editing on the article has slowed down considerably (15 in the past 16 hours) and most of the recent edits appear to be gnomish in nature, so I don't really see a need to protect the article. If you think I made the wrong call here feel free to ask another admin to take a look, I certainly won't mind if they decide to apply protection. <span style="white-space:nowrap">— [[user:east718|<font color="#000">east718</font>]] &#124; [[user talk:east718#top|<font color="#000">talk</font>]] &#124; 21:20, 3 December 2014 (UTC)</span>

== Invitation to subscribe to the edit filter mailing list ==

Hi, as a user in the ''edit filter manager'' user group we wanted to let you know about the new [[mail:wikipedia-en-editfilters|wikipedia-en-editfilters]] mailing list. As part of our recent efforts to improve the use of edit filters on the English Wikipedia it has been established as a venue for internal discussion by edit filter managers regarding private filters (those only viewable by administrators and edit filter managers) and also as a means by which non-admins can ask questions about hidden filters that [[WP:BEANS|wouldn't be appropriate]] to discuss on-wiki. As an edit filter manager we encourage you to subscribe; the more users we have in the mailing list the more useful it will be to the community. If you subscribe we will send a short email to you through Wikipedia to confirm your subscription, but let us know if you'd prefer another method of verification. I'd also like to take the opportunity to invite you to contribute to the proposed guideline for edit filter use at [[WP:Edit filter/Draft]] and the associated talk page. Thank you!

Join us for a full Sunday of social Wikipedia editing at the [[Center for Jewish History]] (drop-in any time!), during which we will create, update, and improve Wikipedia articles pertaining to Women in Jewish History.

All are invited, with no specialized knowledge of the subject or Wikipedia editing experience required. 

Expanding coverage of Jewish women on Wikipedia makes these women and their creations discoverable, addresses the gender bias on Wikipedia in a positive way, and works to correct imbalances archival collecting practice and institutional projects that have historically silenced women's narratives.

A training session on editing Wikipedia will be held at 12:30 pm. Experienced Wikipedians will be on-hand to assist throughout the day. Please bring your laptop and power cord; we will have library resources, WiFi, and a list of suggested topics on hand. 

Light refreshments will be provided.

Make edits! Ask questions! Be bold!

== Extended confirmed protection ==

{{ivmbox|1=Hello, East718. 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.

Join us for a full Saturday of social Wikipedia editing at the [[Museum of Modern Art]] (drop-in any time!), during which we will create, update, and improve Wikipedia articles pertaining to the lives and works of Latin American artists.

The ''WikiArte'' (Wiki Arte y Cultura Latinoamerica) edit-a-thon is a global campaign to improve Wikipedia's coverage of Latin American arts and culture and to counter geocultural systemic bias on Wikipedia. 

Featuring an opening Artists' Panel at 10am, with Sol Aramendi, Sharon Lee De La Cruz, and Marisa Morán Jahn, to be moderated by Rocío Aranda-Alvarado, curator at El Museo del Barrio.

The Museum of Modern Art and Fundacion Cisneros/Colección Patricia Phelps de Cisneros are uniting with international allies to focus on the lives and works of Latin American artists, architects and designers.  With keystone events scheduled for October 22 in New York City and other cities throughout the month (Mexico City, Buenos Aires, Caracas, & others), the campaign aims to further similar goals to [[Wikipedia:Meetup/ArtAndFeminism|Art+Feminism]].

All are invited, with no specialized knowledge of the subject or Wikipedia editing experience required. Introductory training on the basics of Wikipedia editing will be given throughout the edit-a-thon. Please bring your laptop and power cord; we will have library resources, WiFi, and a list of suggested topics on hand.

== 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]]) 13:46, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

==Just a Request==
This may be a rather unconventional request, given how long it's been since the said image was deleted, which was years before I joined Wikipedia, though not before I first ran into the page that contained the image.

The said image File:NefariousTropy.PNG was deleted in January 2008 and although I'm not requesting that the said image be restored, I was wondering if I would be able to find any sites that still had the image. ― <span style="font-family:'Constantia'; font-weight:bold; font-size:108%;">[[User:C.Syde65|<font color="maroon">C.Syde</font>]]</span> <span style="font-family:'Adobe Garamond Pro'; font-size:108%;">([[User talk:C.Syde65|<font color="black">talk</font>]] | [[:Special:Contributions/C.Syde65|<font color="black">contribs</font>]])</span> 07:39, 1 February 2017 (UTC)

== Invitation to Admin confidence survey ==

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>

We really appreciate your input! 

<small>Please let us know if you wish to opt-out of all [[en:Wikipedia:Mass message senders|massmessage mailings]] from the Anti-harassment tools team. </small>

The '''Wikipedia Asian Month Edit-a-thon @ The Met''' will be the [[Metropolitan Museum of Art]]'s second edit-a-thon, hosted on '''Sunday November 19, 2017''' in the Bonnie Sacerdote Classroom, Ruth and Harold D. Uris Center for Education (81st Street entrance) at The Met Fifth Avenue in New York City.

Following the first Met edit-a-thon in May 2017, the museum is excited to work with [[meta:Wikipedia Asian Month 2017/Asian Art|Wikipedia Asian Month]] for the potential to seed new articles about Asian artworks, artwork types, and art traditions, from any part of [[Asia]]. These can be illustrated with thousands of its recently-released images of public domain artworks available for Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons from the museum’s collection spanning 5,000 years of art. The event is an opportunity for Wikimedia communities to engage The Met's diverse Asian collections onsite and remotely.

[[File:Copyright-problem.svg|64px|left|alt=|link=]]
Thank you for uploading '''[[:File:Tagorg logo.png]]'''. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the [[copyright]] status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the [[:File:Tagorg logo.png|image description page]].

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a [[Wikipedia:Requests for undeletion|request for undeletion]] and ask for a chance to fix the problem.<!-- Template:You can request undeletion -->

Please refer to the '''[[WP:IUP#Adding images|image use policy]]''' to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a [{{fullurl:Special:Log|type=upload&user=East718}} list of your uploads]. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the [[Wikipedia:Media copyright questions|Media copyright questions page]].

'''[[meta:Translat-a-thon/NYC/2019|Translat-a-thon NYC 2019 @ LaGuardia Community College]]''' is hosting the second annual Wikipedia Translatathon! At this event on '''Thursday evening and during the day Friday this week''', anyone from the public is invited to LaGuardia to join students, professors, and CUNY faculty in translating Wikipedia articles among any languages which attendees understand. Themes for this event include public health and the history of New York City.
 
New York City has a large immigrant population and great diversity of speakers of various languages. Among all schools in New York City, LaGuardia has the highest percentage of immigrant students, the highest percentage of students who speak a language other than English as their first language, and the greatest representation of language diversity. It is a strength of LaGuardia that it can present "Wikipedia translatathons", which are Wikipedia translation events.

; 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>

The '''Wikipedia Asian Month Edit-a-thon @ The Met''' will be hosted at the [[Metropolitan Museum of Art]] on '''Saturday November 16, 2019''' in the Bonnie Sacerdote Classroom, Ruth and Harold D. Uris Center for Education (81st Street entrance) at The Met Fifth Avenue in New York City.

The museum is excited to work with [[meta:Wikipedia Asian Month 2019|Wikipedia Asian Month]] for the potential to seed new articles about Asian artworks, artwork types, and art traditions, from any part of [[Asia]]. These can be illustrated with thousands of its recently-released images of public domain artworks available for Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons from the museum’s collection spanning 5,000 years of art. The event is an opportunity for Wikimedia communities to engage The Met's diverse Asian collections onsite and remotely. Asia Art Archive will host a sister event in Hong Kong next week.

== Special:WantedTemplates ==

Hi, I have been helping with an effort to clear up false-positives in [[Special:WantedTemplates]] and found that 7 of the entries can be traced back to [[User:East718/block.js]].  For example, if you check [[Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:' + 'zombie proxy]], you will see that the server is reporting that User:East718/block.js is transcluding that template.  Clearly this is a quirk in how the backend software parses javascript pages, but it makes it harder to find the real problem pages.  It would be great if you could put
<pre>
// <syntaxhighlight lang=javascript>
</pre>
at the top of the script page and 
<pre>
// </syntaxhighlight>
</pre>
at the bottom of the script page.  Since these are commented out, it won't break the javascript, but it will prevent the backend software from parsing the <code><nowiki>{{' + 'zombie proxy</nowiki></code> as a template transclusion.  Thanks! [[User:Plastikspork|Plastikspork]] [[User talk:Plastikspork|<sub style="font-size: 60%">―Œ</sub><sup style="margin-left:-3ex">(talk)</sup>]] 22:27, 3 February 2021 (UTC)

== Replaceable fair use File:PSP Macau.png ==
[[File:Ambox warning pn.svg|32px|left]]
Thanks for uploading '''[[:File:PSP Macau.png]]'''. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of [[Wikipedia:Non-free content|fair use]]. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the [[Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria|first non-free content criterion]]. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have ''no free equivalent''; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

# Go to [[:File:PSP Macau.png|the file description page]] and add the text {{Tlx|Di-replaceable fair use disputed|&lt;your reason>}} '''below''' the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <code>&lt;your reason></code> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
# On [[File talk:PSP Macau.png|the file discussion page]], write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, [[Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission|requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license]], or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on <span class="plainlinks">[{{fullurl:Special:Contributions|target=East718&namespace=6}} this link]</span>. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the [[Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria|non-free content policy]].  If you have any questions, please ask them at the [[Wikipedia:Media copyright questions|Media copyright questions page]].

== 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.

You are invited to join the [[Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/About|Wikimedia NYC]] community for a virtual [[Metropolitan Museum of Art]] edit-a-thon Saturday afternoon (12-2pm) with partners [[Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/AfroCrowd/Home|AfroCROWD]] and [[Wikipedia:Meetup/Black Lunch Table/About|Black Lunch Table]]. To join the livestream from your computer or smartphone, just [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rUx7YltS598 watch at this link]. More information about how to connect is available [[Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/MetAfrofuturist|on the meetup page]]. 

Our focus will be on the exhibition ''[[Before Yesterday We Could Fly]]'' inspired by [[Seneca Village]], and featured art, artists, history and culture of the African diaspora.

We look forward to seeing local Wikimedians, but would also like to invite folks from the greater New York metropolitan area (and beyond!) who might not typically be able to join us in person! 

We are also running a Met Afrofuturist chat channel on our [[Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/Discord|Wikimedia NYC Discord server]] for the whole monthlong campaign.

Hi Wiki-Yorkers,

We are reaching out as part of our community-building efforts at [[Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC|Wikimedia NYC]]. Our regional group is engaged in a strategic planning process to sharpen our strategy for the next three years, and we would like your input. Given your connection to us and your experience with Wikimedia NYC, I would be grateful if you would be willing to share some of your perspectives and insights as we think about our next chapter.

[https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScDs0eLjMp4dF16GZBoF9osrR6wm-TTM4zdSuODDAKOvlsbQA/viewform Attached is an anonymous survey], which will remain active until February 28. Responses will go directly to Barretto Consulting and the Wikimedia NYC board will receive responses in aggregate and to identify cross-cutting themes. Please take some time to answer it and share your thoughts with us.

{{Clickable button 2|Fill out our Wikimedia NYC survey!|class=mw-ui-progressive|url=https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScDs0eLjMp4dF16GZBoF9osrR6wm-TTM4zdSuODDAKOvlsbQA/viewform}}

== Replaceable fair use File:Ogre-logo.png ==
[[File:Ambox warning pn.svg|32px|left]]
Thanks for uploading '''[[:File:Ogre-logo.png]]'''. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of [[Wikipedia:Non-free content|fair use]]. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the [[Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria|first non-free content criterion]]. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have ''no free equivalent''; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

# Go to [[:File:Ogre-logo.png|the file description page]] and add the text {{Tlx|Di-replaceable fair use disputed|&lt;your reason>}} '''below''' the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <code>&lt;your reason></code> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
# On [[File talk:Ogre-logo.png|the file discussion page]], write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, [[Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission|requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license]], or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on <span class="plainlinks">[{{fullurl:Special:Contributions|target=East718&namespace=6}} this link]</span>. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the [[Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria|non-free content policy]].  If you have any questions, please ask them at the [[Wikipedia:Media copyright questions|Media copyright questions page]]. Thank you. <!-- Template:di-replaceable fair use-notice --> [[User:Vitaium|Vitaium]] ([[User talk:Vitaium|talk]]) 02:25, 9 April 2022 (UTC)

[[File:Ambox warning blue.svg|35px|text-top|left|⚠|link=]] Thanks for uploading '''[[:File:Ogre-logo.png]]'''. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a [[Wikipedia:Non-free content|claim of fair use]]. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see [[Wikipedia:Non-free content#Policy|our policy for non-free media]]).

Note that any non-free images not used in any '''articles''' will be deleted after seven days, as described in [[wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#F5|section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion]].

== 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 the removal of the administrative permissions of users who have made fewer than 100 edits over a 60-month period. Your administrative permissions will be removed&#32;if you do not return to the required activity level before the beginning of February 2024. 

Inactive administrators are encouraged to engage with the project in earnest rather than to make token edits to avoid loss of administrative permissions. Resources and support for re-engaging with the project are available at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Editor Retention/administrators]]. If you do not intend to re-engage with the project in the foreseeable future, please consider voluntarily resigning your administrative permissions by making a request at [[Wikipedia:Bureaucrats' noticeboard|the bureaucrats' noticeboard]].

== Imminent 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 the removal of the administrative permissions of users who have made fewer than 100 edits over a 60-month period. Your administrative permissions will be removed&#32;if you do not return to the required activity level before the beginning of February 2024. 

Inactive administrators are encouraged to engage with the project in earnest rather than to make token edits to avoid loss of administrative permissions. Resources and support for re-engaging with the project are available at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Editor Retention/administrators]]. If you do not intend to re-engage with the project in the foreseeable future, please consider voluntarily resigning your administrative permissions by making a request at [[Wikipedia:Bureaucrats' noticeboard|the bureaucrats' noticeboard]].
