![]() | On 30 January 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Bryan Loren, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that " Do the Bartman", written by Michael Jackson and Bryan Loren, was never released as a single in the US yet it peaked at number 11 on Billboard's airplay chart? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Bryan Loren. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |
Administrators aren't playing nice, so I requested a protection level reduction of Star Trek into Darkness [1]. Ryan Vesey 01:31, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
At Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive706, you closed a discussion with the result that TonytheTiger was prohibited from participating in Featured Sounds and from uploading images of himself. Someone has proposed that the ban be lifted, so I thought you should be aware; the thread is "Request to revoke Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/IncidentArchive706#Two_topic_bans_for_TonyTheTiger".

Hi, I would like the permission to "move" or rename certain page titles.

I really thought you had done a good thing there. -- SarekOfVulcan (talk) 19:03, 6 February 2013 (UTC)
Well, this is not what I wanted to see on my talk page this morning. Xkcdreader, I will take you at your word that you've made your final edits to that stuff. Any more Star Trek related edits and I will restore the block, understand? 28bytes ( talk) 15:23, 7 February 2013 (UTC)
I'm sure this isn't what you want to read on your talk page this {what time of day it is for you}, either, but that never really does stop me, does it? Unblocking: good. Topic banning Xkcdreader from ST articles in mainspace: preventative. SofV stalking Xkcdreader in his user space and you reading them the riot act: punitive, not good. All the evidence suggests Xr is a new editor who both: thinks they are right, and, that being right is particularly important around here. (We know better, of course.) Anyway, letting them do their thing in userspace wouldn't have really hurt anything, and makes it less likely they'll morph into a useful editor. We both know we allow all sorts of myspace stuff in user pages as long as the account is making some reasonable effort to be an actual Wikipedia editor, and since Xr is finding other articles to edit, that seems to be the case. So maybe you and me and all ya'll tps can just not worry about the userpages? NE Ent 17:59, 8 February 2013 (UTC)
Ok, so per the Meta:Inclusion policy that didn't work. They deleted it and said it didn't belong. http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Xkcdreader/Interpretation_of_the_movie_title_Star_Trek_Into_Darkness Do I just keep stabbing in the dark until someone will let me have a sandbox to play in? I don't see how it is appropriate for simple or common either. Is that content now permanently lost? Maybe talk to http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Tegel ? I really hope that article didn't get deleted off both ends permanently, because I didn't have it backed up yet. Xkcdreader ( talk) 23:34, 6 February 2013 (UTC)
Dear 28bytes: I'm wondering if you can help with a wikipedia administrator issue? I chose you from the list of Wikipedia admins willing to handle RevisionDelete requests since I had an atari 2600 when I was a kid. =)
Anyway, I just created a wiki page here: Drift Plus Penalty. It's on a technical mathy subject. Anyway, as I was making minor typo corrections I noticed I forgot to log in. So my IP address is visible. This probably is not a big deal, but I would appreciate it if you could delete those edits in the history? I have the whole page (in the wiki language) saved elsewhere, so I can recreate the whole page if need be. Let me know if you can help, thanks!

Wow, thanks for the quick reply and help! I've now restored the page. Thanks again,

I wish you could help me protecting the page Mahathir Mohamad by allowing only registered users to edit it and with no time limit. There is frequent vandalism made almost every day. Irfanshaharuddin ( talk) 10:33, 14 February 2013 (UTC)
