Hello, Excirial,
The Editing team is asking for your help with VisualEditor. I am contacting you because you posted to a feedback page for VisualEditor. Please tell them what they need to change to make VisualEditor work well for you. The team has a list of top-priority problems, but they also want to hear about small problems. These problems may make editing less fun, take too much of your time, or be as annoying as a paper cut. The Editing team wants to hear about and try to fix these small things, too.
You can share your thoughts by clicking this link. You may respond to this quick, simple, anonymous survey in your own language. If you take the survey, then you agree your responses may be used in accordance with these terms. This survey is powered by Qualtrics and their use of your information is governed by their privacy policy.
More information (including a translateable list of the questions) is posted on wiki at mw:VisualEditor/Survey 2015. If you have questions, or prefer to respond on-wiki, then please leave a message on the survey's talk page.
Thank you, Whatamidoing (WMF) (talk) 15:56, 26 March 2015 (UTC)

Hi, would like to thank you for spotting and reversing vandalism edits done by "69.170.13.40" in Baba Hari Dass page and other entries. In my understanding those were definitely ill intended entries that had no place on that page(s). In my opinion that user should be blocked from editing; thanks.

I think I have this done now. I tested deleting a mainspace page on testwiki and it deleted it as G11, blocked the page creator (me) and left me the template as it the script normally does. Let me know if you have any issues. The script does not yet tell you who the page creator is, so be sure to check the page history first.
I was going to take this a step further and turn it into a more comprehensive blocking script, but then I said to hell with it and now I'm trying to make the missing blocking module for Twinkle. No sense it designing and implementing my own interface when Twinkle has that much already done, and seemingly blocking is the only thing missing from it!

I work in a school and when I came to Wikipedia to look up something, I get a message about "new messages". It was puzzling for a few minutes, being chastised for my "unconstructive" editing, which was compared to vandalism on pages like Nero, Goje and Mount Aso . . . pages to which I've never been . . . and being warned that I would be blocked from editing. I looked at the pages that were edited and was even more confused . . . then I realized I WASN'T LOGGED IN!!! Whew . . . I logged in . . . but the message still appeared. What do I need to do to separate myself from the students?

Hi there.
At 10:15 p.m., 4/11/15, I was viewing the Wikipedia page on the "Baldric" ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baldric) when I received a message from you claiming you had revised one of my edits at 20:10, 9/30/13 on the "History of Earth" ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Earth). Now, while the revision seemed valid, I would be remiss if I did not tell you that I did not make the edit in question, have never edited that Wikipedia page, nor have I made any edit on any Wikipedia page, and do not have a Wikipedia account. While I have not been personally affected by your revision, or your massage informing me of it, it seems the culprit of this edit is still at large and has yet to suffer any scolding for his actions. I am concerned why you thought that I had made the edit edit, and that the actual vandal has gone unscathed. I'm sorry if this message seems in any way petty, tedious, or inconsequential.
I'm sure you'll figure this out, Adam
Hey Excirial! I see you have been less active as of late, and frankly, I don't like it. Get back to work! We're not paying you for nothin! :) Seriously though, when and if you do become active again soon, I was wondering if you'd be willing to help test the new Twinkle Block module. Let me know if you're interested! And hopefully you don't mind that I keep coming back to you about getting input for all of my scripts :) Hope all is well — MusikAnimal talk 15:32, 8 April 2015 (UTC)
importScript('User:MusikAnimal/Twinkle-block.js');
. This is actually a hack of sorts. It will override your existing Twinkle warn module and add the block module after one second, which is the only way to do it until it gets merged into Twinkle's core script. The Block menu option should show on any user-related page, again after one second. Thanks again —

Dear User:Excirial. At Category_talk:Pages_where_template_include_size_is_exceeded we are trying to reduce the number of pages on overflow. That's the reason why I have noticed that your User:Excirial/Dashboard page is on overflow. This is due to the transclusion of User:Excirial/Dashboard/Content that itself transcludes {{ admin dashboard}} that itself transcludes.... Perhaps should you consider to directly transclude {{ admin dashboard/light}} into your user page (this template has the same functionality as {{ admin dashboard}}), or take any other action to move your page below the template include size limit ? Thanks in advance. Pldx1 ( talk) 10:04, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

Hello, Excirial. This message is intended to notify administrators of important changes to the protection policy.
Extended confirmed protection (also known as "30/500 protection") is a new level of page protection that only allows edits from accounts at least 30 days old and with 500 edits. The automatically assigned "extended confirmed" user right was created for this purpose. The protection level was created following this community discussion with the primary intention of enforcing various arbitration remedies that prohibited editors under the "30 days/500 edits" threshold to edit certain topic areas.
In July and August 2016, a request for comment established consensus for community use of the new protection level. Administrators are authorized to apply extended confirmed protection to combat any form of disruption (e.g. vandalism, sock puppetry, edit warring, etc.) on any topic, subject to the following conditions:
Please review
the protection policy carefully before using this new level of protection on pages. Thank you.
This message was sent to the administrators'
mass message list. To opt-out of future messages, please remove yourself from the list. 17:47, 23 September 2016 (UTC)
Dear Excirial,
I would like to make you aware of an individual that operates under the alias Richard Gooi that has systematically denuded a properly cited and approved article to paint a negative picture of the subject matter John de Ruiter. I have appealed to this individual to use the talk feature to make changes or suggested changes in creating a balanced article but this individual has continued to systematically remove each approved citation with negative ones or none at all. I believe these actions amount to vandalism and have no other recourse but to suggest that this person's IP address be blocked. thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Planktonium ( talk • contribs) 18:43, 29 September 2016 (UTC)

Hi Excirial,
In order to better control the quality of new pages, keep out the spam, and welcome the genuine newbies, the current system we introduced in 2011 is being updated and improved. The documentation and tutorials have also been revised and given a facelift. Most importantly a new user group New Page Reviewer has been created.
Under the new rule, you may find that you are temporarily unable to mark new pages as reviewed. However, this is nothing to worry about - most current experienced patrollers are being accorded the the new right without the need to apply, and if you have significant previous experience of patrolling new pages, we strongly encourage you to apply for the new right as soon as possible - we need all the help we can get, and we are now providing a dynamic, supportive environment for your work.
Find out more about this exiting new user right now at New Page Reviewers and be sure to read the new tutorial before applying. MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 04:29, 13 November 2016 (UTC)
Hi Excirial.
A new user group, New Page Reviewer, has been created in a move to greatly improve the standard of new page patrolling. The user right can be granted by any admin at PERM. It is highly recommended that admins look beyond the simple numerical threshold and satisfy themselves that the candidates have the required skills of communication and an advanced knowledge of notability and deletion. Admins are automatically included in this user right.
It is anticipated that this user right will significantly reduce the work load of admins who patrol the performance of the patrollers. However,due to the complexity of the rollout, some rights may have been accorded that may later need to be withdrawn, so some help will still be needed to some extent when discovering wrongly applied deletion tags or inappropriate pages that escape the attention of less experienced reviewers, and above all, hasty and bitey tagging for maintenance. User warnings are available here but very often a friendly custom message works best.
If you have any questions about this user right, don't hesitate to join us at WT:NPR. (Sent to all admins). MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 13:47, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

Need some guidance, if you have the time. After reading your helpful guidelines highlighted in green above, I have decided to proceed with my inquiry in a neutral vague fashion 'first' BEFORE filing a report with you in order to honor good faith and guarantee civility. This way if I'm wrong, no drama is provoked.
Anyhow...on with my inquiry.... A disruptive user who doesn't know when to quit was stalking some of us AND he was recently "indefinitely topic-banned from the WP:ARBAPDS topic area (post-1932 U.S. politics and closely related people)."
Nobody expected him to take it well, and sure enough a day later he went to THIS following article about America's nemesis Saddam Hussein [1] where he unilaterally reverted the edits of others (despite the evolving consensus against him).
However, in his defense, does this article qualify as part of that ban? Saddam Hussein, like Vladimir Putin, are certainly major topics of American politics and "closely related people" as far as American politics go. In fact, within the article itself is THIS line,"According to officials of the United States State Department, many human rights abuses in Saddam Hussein's Iraq were largely carried out..." So, this article certainly is embedded with American politics inside and out. And this editor is a long time editor very knowledgeable about politics, so there can be NO doubt he is aware of Saddam Hussein's politicized history in American politics (i.e.Saddam was installed by the American CIA to run Iraq and given his infamous stature during both Iraq Wars he remains a highly politically-charged figure in American politics, so it is impossible to seperate the politics of the page which are very much a part of this article, etc.)
The disruptive user was advised by the editors who topic-banned him focus on future articles that are as far removed from politics as possible (i.e. like fishing or videogames, etc.) So he's very aware of the stipulations of his punishment. An article about America's nemesis Saddam Hussein clearly is NOT what they meant, and he knows this. In fact, the edit in violation IMHO of his TBAN was based upon his political interpretation of information from mainstream journalism which he simply doesn't trust for that personal reason.(i.e. he's labeling information from mainstream journalists as OR).
Sounds straightforward enough, right?
BUT....I don't pretend to be knowledgeable about the innerworkings of wikipedia violation enforcement. Sooooo...I'm leaving out the username of the disruptive user 'for now' since, in his defense (and assuming good faith) IF I'm wrong THEN I do NOT want to unnecessarily provoke him, etc. However, if this IS a clear violation of the above stipulation, then of course I will proceed with my report/inquiry and follow through since the reason he was tbanned was his stubbornness in listening to admins in the first place. In which case, the consensus of admins who admonished him agreed that a time out for him to chill out and reflect on his behavior is probably in order in the event of future disruptions, etc.
Sorry for the longwindedness of this reply. Working and I had to rush this off in my short break. Excuse the sloppiness but gotta go!
Let me know what you think here and thank you for your time. I will follow up with a report if you think this warrants action :)
ITI-007. The reasons why the drug candidate did not pass the second phase three trial was discussed in my edit. I do not think that the page should be owned/operated/updated only by Intra-Cellular Therapies and instead should feature content from Independent Thinkers & Researchers. Again this page should not solely be dedicated to the pharmaceutical company. The only people that would say my edit wasn't constructive would be the people telling you it wasn't. I have been told from an IT consulting group that edits that are deleted are directed to be removed by Intra-Cellular. 2605:E000:3057:DA00:F015:6FAB:EBF8:3FC8 ( talk) 23:40, 13 January 2017 (UTC)

Need help enforcing a block evasion. An user editing on some of our articles was recently banned for a few weeks for socking. On one occasion he violated his ban by trying to edit by proxy on his talk page. This was reported to a neutral admin, for which his talk page access was promptly revoked as a consequence. *sigh* Now he's using the email function hoping to convince other editors to help him edit articles. Pretty cut and dry case of block evasion.
Simply looking to report this latest violation to another neutral admin to extend the block since if a blocked user emails you out of the blue, it is generally a good idea to notify a blocking admin, as this is normally an abuse of the email service. Since he's continuing to be disruptive and making it clear he has no intention to stop, I will recommend that his blocks be increased accordingly to deter further block evasion. This is a no-brainer and I can provide the necessary diffs if this is something within your realm of authority. But I'm not here to embarrass anyone, hence why I'm being discreet about this now. If this is something you can help me with, I will provide the diffs. 200.219.247.171 ( talk) 16:03, 30 January 2017 (UTC)

I think I have this done now. I tested deleting a mainspace page on testwiki and it deleted it as G11, blocked the page creator (me) and left me the template as it the script normally does. Let me know if you have any issues. The script does not yet tell you who the page creator is, so be sure to check the page history first.
I was going to take this a step further and turn it into a more comprehensive blocking script, but then I said to hell with it and now I'm trying to make the missing blocking module for Twinkle. No sense it designing and implementing my own interface when Twinkle has that much already done, and seemingly blocking is the only thing missing from it!

I work in a school and when I came to Wikipedia to look up something, I get a message about "new messages". It was puzzling for a few minutes, being chastised for my "unconstructive" editing, which was compared to vandalism on pages like Nero, Goje and Mount Aso . . . pages to which I've never been . . . and being warned that I would be blocked from editing. I looked at the pages that were edited and was even more confused . . . then I realized I WASN'T LOGGED IN!!! Whew . . . I logged in . . . but the message still appeared. What do I need to do to separate myself from the students?

Hi there.
At 10:15 p.m., 4/11/15, I was viewing the Wikipedia page on the "Baldric" ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baldric) when I received a message from you claiming you had revised one of my edits at 20:10, 9/30/13 on the "History of Earth" ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Earth). Now, while the revision seemed valid, I would be remiss if I did not tell you that I did not make the edit in question, have never edited that Wikipedia page, nor have I made any edit on any Wikipedia page, and do not have a Wikipedia account. While I have not been personally affected by your revision, or your massage informing me of it, it seems the culprit of this edit is still at large and has yet to suffer any scolding for his actions. I am concerned why you thought that I had made the edit edit, and that the actual vandal has gone unscathed. I'm sorry if this message seems in any way petty, tedious, or inconsequential.
I'm sure you'll figure this out, Adam

. This is actually a hack of sorts. It will override your existing Twinkle warn module and add the block module after one second, which is the only way to do it until it gets merged into Twinkle's core script. The Block menu option should show on any user-related page, again after one second. Thanks again —

Dear User:Excirial. At Category_talk:Pages_where_template_include_size_is_exceeded we are trying to reduce the number of pages on overflow. That's the reason why I have noticed that your User:Excirial/Dashboard page is on overflow. This is due to the transclusion of User:Excirial/Dashboard/Content that itself transcludes {{ admin dashboard}} that itself transcludes.... Perhaps should you consider to directly transclude {{ admin dashboard/light}} into your user page (this template has the same functionality as {{ admin dashboard}}), or take any other action to move your page below the template include size limit ? Thanks in advance. Pldx1 ( talk) 10:04, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

Hello, Excirial. This message is intended to notify administrators of important changes to the protection policy.
Extended confirmed protection (also known as "30/500 protection") is a new level of page protection that only allows edits from accounts at least 30 days old and with 500 edits. The automatically assigned "extended confirmed" user right was created for this purpose. The protection level was created following this community discussion with the primary intention of enforcing various arbitration remedies that prohibited editors under the "30 days/500 edits" threshold to edit certain topic areas.
In July and August 2016, a request for comment established consensus for community use of the new protection level. Administrators are authorized to apply extended confirmed protection to combat any form of disruption (e.g. vandalism, sock puppetry, edit warring, etc.) on any topic, subject to the following conditions:
Please review
the protection policy carefully before using this new level of protection on pages. Thank you.

Dear Excirial,
I would like to make you aware of an individual that operates under the alias Richard Gooi that has systematically denuded a properly cited and approved article to paint a negative picture of the subject matter John de Ruiter. I have appealed to this individual to use the talk feature to make changes or suggested changes in creating a balanced article but this individual has continued to systematically remove each approved citation with negative ones or none at all. I believe these actions amount to vandalism and have no other recourse but to suggest that this person's IP address be blocked. thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Planktonium ( talk • contribs) 18:43, 29 September 2016 (UTC)

Hi Excirial,
In order to better control the quality of new pages, keep out the spam, and welcome the genuine newbies, the current system we introduced in 2011 is being updated and improved. The documentation and tutorials have also been revised and given a facelift. Most importantly a new user group New Page Reviewer has been created.
Under the new rule, you may find that you are temporarily unable to mark new pages as reviewed. However, this is nothing to worry about - most current experienced patrollers are being accorded the the new right without the need to apply, and if you have significant previous experience of patrolling new pages, we strongly encourage you to apply for the new right as soon as possible - we need all the help we can get, and we are now providing a dynamic, supportive environment for your work.
Find out more about this exiting new user right now at New Page Reviewers and be sure to read the new tutorial before applying. MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 04:29, 13 November 2016 (UTC)
Hi Excirial.
A new user group, New Page Reviewer, has been created in a move to greatly improve the standard of new page patrolling. The user right can be granted by any admin at PERM. It is highly recommended that admins look beyond the simple numerical threshold and satisfy themselves that the candidates have the required skills of communication and an advanced knowledge of notability and deletion. Admins are automatically included in this user right.
It is anticipated that this user right will significantly reduce the work load of admins who patrol the performance of the patrollers. However,due to the complexity of the rollout, some rights may have been accorded that may later need to be withdrawn, so some help will still be needed to some extent when discovering wrongly applied deletion tags or inappropriate pages that escape the attention of less experienced reviewers, and above all, hasty and bitey tagging for maintenance. User warnings are available here but very often a friendly custom message works best.
If you have any questions about this user right, don't hesitate to join us at WT:NPR. (Sent to all admins). MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 13:47, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

Need some guidance, if you have the time. After reading your helpful guidelines highlighted in green above, I have decided to proceed with my inquiry in a neutral vague fashion 'first' BEFORE filing a report with you in order to honor good faith and guarantee civility. This way if I'm wrong, no drama is provoked.
Anyhow...on with my inquiry.... A disruptive user who doesn't know when to quit was stalking some of us AND he was recently "indefinitely topic-banned from the WP:ARBAPDS topic area (post-1932 U.S. politics and closely related people)."
Nobody expected him to take it well, and sure enough a day later he went to THIS following article about America's nemesis Saddam Hussein [1] where he unilaterally reverted the edits of others (despite the evolving consensus against him).
However, in his defense, does this article qualify as part of that ban? Saddam Hussein, like Vladimir Putin, are certainly major topics of American politics and "closely related people" as far as American politics go. In fact, within the article itself is THIS line,"According to officials of the United States State Department, many human rights abuses in Saddam Hussein's Iraq were largely carried out..." So, this article certainly is embedded with American politics inside and out. And this editor is a long time editor very knowledgeable about politics, so there can be NO doubt he is aware of Saddam Hussein's politicized history in American politics (i.e.Saddam was installed by the American CIA to run Iraq and given his infamous stature during both Iraq Wars he remains a highly politically-charged figure in American politics, so it is impossible to seperate the politics of the page which are very much a part of this article, etc.)
The disruptive user was advised by the editors who topic-banned him focus on future articles that are as far removed from politics as possible (i.e. like fishing or videogames, etc.) So he's very aware of the stipulations of his punishment. An article about America's nemesis Saddam Hussein clearly is NOT what they meant, and he knows this. In fact, the edit in violation IMHO of his TBAN was based upon his political interpretation of information from mainstream journalism which he simply doesn't trust for that personal reason.(i.e. he's labeling information from mainstream journalists as OR).
Sounds straightforward enough, right?
BUT....I don't pretend to be knowledgeable about the innerworkings of wikipedia violation enforcement. Sooooo...I'm leaving out the username of the disruptive user 'for now' since, in his defense (and assuming good faith) IF I'm wrong THEN I do NOT want to unnecessarily provoke him, etc. However, if this IS a clear violation of the above stipulation, then of course I will proceed with my report/inquiry and follow through since the reason he was tbanned was his stubbornness in listening to admins in the first place. In which case, the consensus of admins who admonished him agreed that a time out for him to chill out and reflect on his behavior is probably in order in the event of future disruptions, etc.
Sorry for the longwindedness of this reply. Working and I had to rush this off in my short break. Excuse the sloppiness but gotta go!
Let me know what you think here and thank you for your time. I will follow up with a report if you think this warrants action :)
ITI-007. The reasons why the drug candidate did not pass the second phase three trial was discussed in my edit. I do not think that the page should be owned/operated/updated only by Intra-Cellular Therapies and instead should feature content from Independent Thinkers & Researchers. Again this page should not solely be dedicated to the pharmaceutical company. The only people that would say my edit wasn't constructive would be the people telling you it wasn't.

Hi there. Trying to make edits to Allan G. MacMaster's page at the Member's request with an updated biography and links. Some information was replaced and referenced. Old information can be saved if necessary, but the new information either reflects an update (for example committees have changed) and the update also references newer stuff from the legislature with links. A newer photo will also be sent for this page.
Appreciate your assistance. — Preceding unsigned comment added by PoliticalKnowItAll ( talk • contribs) 19:12, 20 January 2017 (UTC)
== Old Kingdom (Egypt) Third Dynasty section hacked citation 5 == By an Afrocentric it is the only way the whole section reads and makes sense. The Dr. Dr. Susan J. Herlin is not affiliated as of this date with the Department of History at the University of Louisville in embedded link. Unable to find books referenced I did find a Susan J. Herlin with the last name Broadhead, in Amazon "Trade and Politics on the Congo Coast 1770-18701971" by Susan Herlin Broadhead. I determined the citations as published by this Dr. Herlin might be two separate works with the earliest period mentioned as the 15th century BCE and long after the 3rd Dynasty. Google refused as did Amazon to locate any work by the article's authority Dr. Susan J. Herlin.

Hi Excirial. Re my previous request. I'm not sure if you had time to keep an eye on my stuff while I recovered from my injury, but if you did, then thank you. I am not yet quite recovered, but I am able to maintain my watchlist most days now. Thank you again. Storye book ( talk) 20:32, 21 January 2017 (UTC)

Need help enforcing a block evasion. An user editing on some of our articles was recently banned for a few weeks for socking. On one occasion he violated his ban by trying to edit by proxy on his talk page. This was reported to a neutral admin, for which his talk page access was promptly revoked as a consequence. *sigh* Now he's using the email function hoping to convince other editors to help him edit articles. Pretty cut and dry case of block evasion.
Simply looking to report this latest violation to another neutral admin to extend the block since if a blocked user emails you out of the blue, it is generally a good idea to notify a blocking admin, as this is normally an abuse of the email service. Since he's continuing to be disruptive and making it clear he has no intention to stop, I will recommend that his blocks be increased accordingly to deter further block evasion. This is a no-brainer and I can provide the necessary diffs if this is something within your realm of authority. But I'm not here to embarrass anyone, hence why I'm being discreet about this now. If this is something you can help me with, I will provide the diffs. 200.219.247.171 ( talk) 16:03, 30 January 2017 (UTC)

Hi Excirial, thank you for reviewing the legal technology article. Why did you delete the german section and my link? advocado is one of the leading legal technology companies in Germany since 2014!

What are you talking about? I've never edited a thing on Wikipedia, but I was looking something up and suddenly a message from you popped up. It said something about me editing a page with a name like Cary Illinois. Who are you and why are you bothering me????
