Whack! You've been whacked with a wet trout. Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know that you did something silly. |

Question from Eziafakaego-PEN (15:04, 9 April 2024)
Greetings Mentor Maddy, Please I need your support to help review, edit and publish an article written by my daddy on the history or origin of our quarter in town Ezi. He requested that I help publish. I really don't know how to go about it.
Would you mind providing your mobile phone number so we can discuss it.
Many thanks Regards

News and updates for administrators from the past month (April 2024).
Guideline and policy news
- Phase I of the 2024 requests for adminship review has concluded. Several proposals have passed outright and will proceed to implementation, including creating a discussion-only period (3b) and administrator elections (13) on a trial basis. Other successful proposals, such as creating a reminder of civility norms (2), will undergo further refinement in Phase II. Proposals passed on a trial basis will be discussed in Phase II, after their trials conclude. Further details on specific proposals can be found in the full report.
Technical news
- Partial action blocks are now in effect on the English Wikipedia. This means that administrators have the ability to restrict users from certain actions, including uploading files, moving pages and files, creating new pages, and sending thanks. T280531
Arbitration
- The arbitration case Conflict of interest management has been closed.
Miscellaneous
- This may be a good time to reach out to potential nominees to ask if they would consider an RfA.
- A New Pages Patrol backlog drive is happening in May 2024 to reduce the number of unreviewed articles in the new pages feed. Currently, there is a backlog of over 15,000 articles awaiting review. Sign up here to participate!
- Voting for the Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee (U4C) election is open until 9 May 2024. Read the voting page on Meta-Wiki and cast your vote here!

Hello, thanks for taking the time to review this discussion: [1]. Can you please elaborate on the no consensus closing? Makeandtoss ( talk) 12:08, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
- I personally happen to agree with both the argument to move in the original RM and with the overturn side in the MRV. However, the discussion did not result in a consensus to overturn. Points that particularly influenced my close were the balance of !votes among uninvolved editors, and the in my opinion irrelevant arguments invoking the closer's non-admin status from the overturn side. --

- Can you please elaborate why you think it's irrelevant? The arguments cited
WP:BADNAC: 2. "The outcome is a close call (especially where there are several valid outcomes) or likely to be controversial."
Makeandtoss (

- I believe the purpose of Wikipedia:Move review is to discuss closures, not closers. That essay's suggestion may be useful to avoid bad closures being made, but saying a closure should be overturned because it was too contentius for a non-admin closure is, on its own, a not a strong argument. -- Maddy from Celeste ( WAVEDASH) 21:29, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
