On 4 August 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article An Account of Corsica, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that the 1768 journal An Account of Corsica (engraved illustration pictured) was so successful its author Boswell became widely known as "Corsica Boswell"? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/An Account of Corsica. 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. |

Thank you for uploading File:Alec Bannerman.jpg. 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 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 request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
Please refer to the 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 list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

The media file you uploaded as File:Wagroupsettlement.jpg appears to be missing information as to its authorship (and or source), or if you did provide such information, it is confusing for others trying to make use of the image.
It would be appreciated if you would consider updating the file description page, to make the authorship of the media clearer.
Although some images may not need author information in obvious cases, (such where an applicable source is provided), authorship information aids users of the image, and helps ensure that appropriate credit is given (a requirement of some licenses).

Hi, just dropping by since you are both an old hand at WP, and a member of the Oz literature project. I came across problems at this article and have taken some fairly firm editorial action, and raised a sticky issue at the talk page.

Hi there. Following your recent revert on this page and the block you have correctly placed on the banned editor who is unquestionably Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Richard Daft, can I please point out that Johnlp's talk page is perceived by Daft to be a "safe haven" and so he is a frequent visitor, helped by Johnlp's reluctance or refusal to do anything to protect the page. As a result, non-admins seeking to revert Daft's inputs using WP:BMB, WP:DENY, etc. risk getting into an argument with Johnlp himself about his "right" to let anyone use his page, even someone who is subject to site-wide WP:BAN like Daft. May I suggest, therefore, that this safe haven is summarily closed by means of semi-protection, regardless of Johnlp's views as he cannot be allowed to facilitate Daft's usage of the site.

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article List of nicknames used in cricket is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of nicknames used in cricket (2nd nomination) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Joseph2302 ( talk) 22:42, 26 November 2015 (UTC)
cheers and the legendary promised lunch is, believe it or not, coming up soon!!! JarrahTree 12:39, 29 January 2016 (UTC)
I was not reverted by multiple editors regarding that particular comment. I was reverted for adding them as nicknames in the nickname box, which I agree wasn't the consensus, and I stopped doing that.
The new edit I made was to the actual article. There is no consensus against this. Please see User:BlueSquareThing's edit [3] where he requested sources, and said that he wasn't against adding this to the article. I subsequently notified him on his talk page that I added it, and he seems to be in agreement (or, at least not in disagreement) as he hasn't reverted my edits following inclusion of sources.
I am adding this back. I don't see how you have the right to be condescending and revert my edits with a "minor tag" and then claim that you are better than me, in that somehow I have to explain myself on the talk page, rather than you explaining yourself as to why you are in opposition to this edit. As I said before, no-one is in opposition to this at the moment (they were only opposed to the nicknames section). Please take the time to read the situation carefully before jumping to false conclusions.
96.248.68.27 ( talk) 23:57, 6 March 2016 (UTC)
And if you have further replies, please reply on my talk page. Thank you. 96.248.68.27 ( talk) 23:57, 6 March 2016 (UTC)
If you didn't mark your edits as minor, then please explain the "m" in https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Adam_Voges&action=history where you have edited the article.
Also, the principles are not the same. I'm not claiming those are nicknames of Voges; I'm just claiming that pundits are referring to him by those names. Which is true and there is a large volume of recent news articles to back this up. As I said before (and will repeat), 2 or 3 out of the 4 involved did not disagree with the edits (i.e., either agreed, or were ambivalent). E.g., please see my talk page and BlueSquareThing's comment before yours. That is not a consensus against including the edits. The only user who was against it strongly was User:Pope.
It's clear that you are misinterpreting the situation/not taking the time to read it carefully (at least the comments by other involved editors). There is not a strong opposition to my edits. Thus, I plan on reinstating it. If you have a problem with it, then you should raise it as a discussion or discuss it with other editors.
As usual, if you wish to reply to my comment, please do so on my talk page. Thank you. 96.248.68.27 ( talk) 02:34, 7 March 2016 (UTC)
I would also advise you to read /info/en/?search=Help:Minor_edit to understand when it is (and when it is not) appropriate to mark an edit as minor. 96.248.68.27 ( talk) 02:37, 7 March 2016 (UTC)
I trust Fremantle submarine base might meet your approval as a starting stub :) JarrahTree 23:45, 17 March 2016 (UTC)
I find your message on my talk page highly offensive. Threatening to block someone because they have a different opinion and you want to silence them is censorship and an abuse of power. Wikipedia is free to everyone to edit, and I have been trying my best to do so constructively.
You state that my addition of pundits' opinions is against Wikipedia policy. Please explain to me why so many articles of living people on Wikipedia have such opinions expressed. I can give you numerous references if you wish. (I feel like I read such hyperbole in almost every Wikipedia article about a living person, mostly with no references.) Policies should be evident from the situations in which they are applied, or else they are meaningless. Whenever anyone is considered notable for something (e.g., a great cricketer etc.), it is the opinion of pundits. There is no other meaning to that statement. Or, you can argue this point based on someone's objective record (e.g., their batting average), which is what I have done for Voges.
Please rescind your block warning (I don't see how you have any right to block me, in any case, I've done nothing wrong, and I don't believe someone like you has the power to do so, given your very aggressive choice of wording when communicating with other people). You have previously been condescending toward me. Instead of acting tough, hiding behind a computer screen and forming a gang of three to bully me, please try to engage in a debate about this. I've been arguing only with Jevansen and The-Pope. Other users have not gone against my claims. Experience is valuable but should not be used as an overriding reason in an argument. As I stated before, Wikipedia is an open encyclopaedia. I look forward to a detailed reply. 96.248.68.27 ( talk) 00:20, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
I have reverted your message on my talk page, as I find it offensive and has no place in a civilised discussion between two equal people. By threatening to block me, your are putting yourself in a position of power over me, which is morally incorrect, especially in the context of a fair debate with regards to an open encyclopaedia. If you post such a message again on my talk page, then I will not hesitate to report you. Polite messages engaging in a debate, however, are always welcome. Please reply here instead of on my talk page. Thank you. 96.248.68.27 ( talk) 00:23, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
Actually, I think I'm going to leave Wikipedia for some time. I'm dismayed by how I have been treated here with little effort by people to arrive at some middle ground between my edits and theirs (which is what I thought the meaning of consensus is from my real life experience, yet people consistently accuse my edits of going against consensus, when their edits do the same). Now, I'm being bullied and blocked. I don't want to be a part of this kind of toxic environment. You were aggressive and rude to me. I'm sure you are a good person in real life, but I found the way you behaved with me here to be offensive and impatient. Otherwise, I wish you all the best, and bid you farewell. 96.248.68.27 ( talk) 00:44, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
Thanks for your response. Firstly, I have not been here a week. I have been here for a month. How much cricket do you follow? Everything I have said is considered true in the cricketing world. I spend a lot of time reading cricket news etc. Regarding the George Bailey edit, he is in fact commonly considered a nice person in Australia cricket. How is it bad to insert that? See [4] where it is written that "Aaron Finch and George Bailey are considered two of the good guys in Australian cricket". This view is actually commonly expressed and you will probably agree with it if you see how he conducts himself in interviews and on the field.
I also think you are misrepresenting the situation. Firstly, many articles have nicknames. So, my addition to Adam Voges was not out of the norm. I agree that I was a bit strong on that, but I did discuss with editors on numerous occasions. Also, it seems not to matter what I insert in the article: see, e.g., [5], an unfair reversal of my edit, which was subsequently reinstated: [6].
For Usman Khawaja, are you keeping track of Usman's batting recently? His run of scores is incredible, as is his timing (most recently on a difficult Indian pitch) and many believe him to be batting as good as anyone. I cited this (Mark Waugh, Michael Slater, Mark Nicholas, all cricket experts, have gone out and said this in the media, as well as others). Why in articles such as Sir Vivian Richards or Sachin Tendulkar (albeit somewhat extreme examples), is it mentioned something along the lines of "considered by many to be greatest ..." Is that encyclopaedic or simply the opinion of pundits? Why isn't that removed from the article? Why are my edits instead singled out for removal? This is the inconsistent application of policies that I mentioned.
For Nathan Lyon, my edit was in fact not reverted. GOAT is an established nickname; if you watch Nine's coverage of cricket during the summer, you will hear him being called this nickname all the time. My edit was kept, but only slightly changed because the reference I provided didn't support everything I said. Please see [7]. However, everything I said was true, just difficult to reference without literally taking audio recordings of people.
My edits have not been undone multiple times except in a couple of occasions (most notably Adam Voges). I "edit warred" because I felt the same editor was going against my edits repeatedly. Why isn't he also responsible for edit warring? Why don't you post a message on his talk page too? It seems unfair. I felt that I was being singled out and no matter what I inserted, my edits would be undone. And I don't think I reverted them more than once or twice except in Adam Voges.
Finally, contrary to what you seem to be implying, I am trying to reach a consensus and discuss with other editors. Almost each and every time my edit is reverted, I go to the relevant talk page and engage in discussion. In these circumstances, I find it incorrect that you should threaten to block me. I accept your apology, but I hope you will consider trying to be a little less confrontational especially when you are not directly involved in the matter. Let me and The-Pope and Jevansen discuss this without threatening to block me. 96.248.68.27 ( talk) 12:43, 20 March 2016 (UTC)

Hello, Moondyne. 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.

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article List of International cricket families is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of International cricket families until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Jack | talk page 14:59, 30 October 2016 (UTC)
Hello,
Please note that 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 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 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 thread on the administrators' noticeboard.

Hi Moondyne.
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)

Dear User:Moondyne
As a member of the "WikiProject Australian rules football" it would be good to hear your opinion on a current debate occurring on the 2018 AFL season talk page.
The debate centres around whether or not a third column should be included in the club attendance table to display "home state games vs. interstate opposition".
The main justification is that Victorian clubs play on average 7 home derbies each year compared to non-victorian clubs who play only 1 home derby each year. This provides an average home figure for Victorian clubs which is inflated as their home games have the fans of other Victorian clubs attending.
Please provide whether you support or oppose this proposal for AFL Club attendance tables.

The Arbitration Committee may require a new RfA if your account is compromised.

This message was sent to all administrators following a recent motion. Thank you for your attention. For the Arbitration Committee, Cameron11598 02:39, 4 May 2019 (UTC)
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 required to "have strong passwords and follow appropriate personal security practices." We have updated our procedures to ensure that we enforce these policies more strictly in the future. The policies themselves have not changed. In particular, 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, - Cameron11598 21:04, 4 May 2019 (UTC)

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 better tools to help.
If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.
We have 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 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.

This is a reminder that established policy provides for removal of the administrative permissions of users who have made fewer than 100 edits over a 60-month period. You are receiving this annual reminder since you have averaged less than 50 edits per year over the last 5 years.
Inactive administrators are encouraged to reengage with 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 be engaged with the project in the foreseeable future, please consider voluntarily resigning your administrative permissions by making a request at the bureaucrats' noticeboard.
Thank you for your past contributions to the project. — JJMC89 bot 00:20, 1 January 2023 (UTC)

Thank you for uploading File:Alec Bannerman.jpg. 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 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 request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
Please refer to the 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.

The media file you uploaded as File:Wagroupsettlement.jpg appears to be missing information as to its authorship (and or source), or if you did provide such information, it is confusing for others trying to make use of the image.
It would be appreciated if you would consider updating the file description page, to make the authorship of the media clearer.
Although some images may not need author information in obvious cases, (such where an applicable source is provided), authorship information aids users of the image, and helps ensure that appropriate credit is given (a requirement of some licenses).

Hi, just dropping by since you are both an old hand at WP, and a member of the Oz literature project. I came across problems at this article and have taken some fairly firm editorial action, and raised a sticky issue at the talk page.

Hi there. Following your recent revert on this page and the block you have correctly placed on the banned editor who is unquestionably Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Richard Daft, can I please point out that Johnlp's talk page is perceived by Daft to be a "safe haven" and so he is a frequent visitor, helped by Johnlp's reluctance or refusal to do anything to protect the page. As a result, non-admins seeking to revert Daft's inputs using WP:BMB, WP:DENY, etc. risk getting into an argument with Johnlp himself about his "right" to let anyone use his page, even someone who is subject to site-wide WP:BAN like Daft. May I suggest, therefore, that this safe haven is summarily closed by means of semi-protection, regardless of Johnlp's views as he cannot be allowed to facilitate Daft's usage of the site.

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article List of nicknames used in cricket is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of nicknames used in cricket (2nd nomination) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Joseph2302 ( talk) 22:42, 26 November 2015 (UTC)
cheers and the legendary promised lunch is, believe it or not, coming up soon!!! JarrahTree 12:39, 29 January 2016 (UTC)
I was not reverted by multiple editors regarding that particular comment. I was reverted for adding them as nicknames in the nickname box, which I agree wasn't the consensus, and I stopped doing that.
The new edit I made was to the actual article. There is no consensus against this. Please see User:BlueSquareThing's edit [3] where he requested sources, and said that he wasn't against adding this to the article. I subsequently notified him on his talk page that I added it, and he seems to be in agreement (or, at least not in disagreement) as he hasn't reverted my edits following inclusion of sources.
I am adding this back. I don't see how you have the right to be condescending and revert my edits with a "minor tag" and then claim that you are better than me, in that somehow I have to explain myself on the talk page, rather than you explaining yourself as to why you are in opposition to this edit. As I said before, no-one is in opposition to this at the moment (they were only opposed to the nicknames section). Please take the time to read the situation carefully before jumping to false conclusions.
96.248.68.27 ( talk) 23:57, 6 March 2016 (UTC)
And if you have further replies, please reply on my talk page. Thank you. 96.248.68.27 ( talk) 23:57, 6 March 2016 (UTC)
If you didn't mark your edits as minor, then please explain the "m" in https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Adam_Voges&action=history where you have edited the article.
Also, the principles are not the same. I'm not claiming those are nicknames of Voges; I'm just claiming that pundits are referring to him by those names. Which is true and there is a large volume of recent news articles to back this up. As I said before (and will repeat), 2 or 3 out of the 4 involved did not disagree with the edits (i.e., either agreed, or were ambivalent). E.g., please see my talk page and BlueSquareThing's comment before yours. That is not a consensus against including the edits. The only user who was against it strongly was User:Pope.
It's clear that you are misinterpreting the situation/not taking the time to read it carefully (at least the comments by other involved editors). There is not a strong opposition to my edits. Thus, I plan on reinstating it. If you have a problem with it, then you should raise it as a discussion or discuss it with other editors.
As usual, if you wish to reply to my comment, please do so on my talk page. Thank you. 96.248.68.27 ( talk) 02:34, 7 March 2016 (UTC)
I would also advise you to read /info/en/?search=Help:Minor_edit to understand when it is (and when it is not) appropriate to mark an edit as minor. 96.248.68.27 ( talk) 02:37, 7 March 2016 (UTC)
I trust Fremantle submarine base might meet your approval as a starting stub :) JarrahTree 23:45, 17 March 2016 (UTC)
I find your message on my talk page highly offensive. Threatening to block someone because they have a different opinion and you want to silence them is censorship and an abuse of power. Wikipedia is free to everyone to edit, and I have been trying my best to do so constructively.
You state that my addition of pundits' opinions is against Wikipedia policy. Please explain to me why so many articles of living people on Wikipedia have such opinions expressed. I can give you numerous references if you wish. (I feel like I read such hyperbole in almost every Wikipedia article about a living person, mostly with no references.) Policies should be evident from the situations in which they are applied, or else they are meaningless. Whenever anyone is considered notable for something (e.g., a great cricketer etc.), it is the opinion of pundits. There is no other meaning to that statement. Or, you can argue this point based on someone's objective record (e.g., their batting average), which is what I have done for Voges.
Please rescind your block warning (I don't see how you have any right to block me, in any case, I've done nothing wrong, and I don't believe someone like you has the power to do so, given your very aggressive choice of wording when communicating with other people). You have previously been condescending toward me. Instead of acting tough, hiding behind a computer screen and forming a gang of three to bully me, please try to engage in a debate about this. I've been arguing only with Jevansen and The-Pope. Other users have not gone against my claims. Experience is valuable but should not be used as an overriding reason in an argument. As I stated before, Wikipedia is an open encyclopaedia. I look forward to a detailed reply. 96.248.68.27 ( talk) 00:20, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
I have reverted your message on my talk page, as I find it offensive and has no place in a civilised discussion between two equal people. By threatening to block me, your are putting yourself in a position of power over me, which is morally incorrect, especially in the context of a fair debate with regards to an open encyclopaedia. If you post such a message again on my talk page, then I will not hesitate to report you. Polite messages engaging in a debate, however, are always welcome. Please reply here instead of on my talk page. Thank you. 96.248.68.27 ( talk) 00:23, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
Actually, I think I'm going to leave Wikipedia for some time. I'm dismayed by how I have been treated here with little effort by people to arrive at some middle ground between my edits and theirs (which is what I thought the meaning of consensus is from my real life experience, yet people consistently accuse my edits of going against consensus, when their edits do the same). Now, I'm being bullied and blocked. I don't want to be a part of this kind of toxic environment. You were aggressive and rude to me. I'm sure you are a good person in real life, but I found the way you behaved with me here to be offensive and impatient. Otherwise, I wish you all the best, and bid you farewell. 96.248.68.27 ( talk) 00:44, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
Thanks for your response. Firstly, I have not been here a week. I have been here for a month. How much cricket do you follow? Everything I have said is considered true in the cricketing world. I spend a lot of time reading cricket news etc. Regarding the George Bailey edit, he is in fact commonly considered a nice person in Australia cricket. How is it bad to insert that? See [4] where it is written that "Aaron Finch and George Bailey are considered two of the good guys in Australian cricket". This view is actually commonly expressed and you will probably agree with it if you see how he conducts himself in interviews and on the field.
I also think you are misrepresenting the situation. Firstly, many articles have nicknames. So, my addition to Adam Voges was not out of the norm. I agree that I was a bit strong on that, but I did discuss with editors on numerous occasions. Also, it seems not to matter what I insert in the article: see, e.g., [5], an unfair reversal of my edit, which was subsequently reinstated: [6].
For Usman Khawaja, are you keeping track of Usman's batting recently? His run of scores is incredible, as is his timing (most recently on a difficult Indian pitch) and many believe him to be batting as good as anyone. I cited this (Mark Waugh, Michael Slater, Mark Nicholas, all cricket experts, have gone out and said this in the media, as well as others). Why in articles such as Sir Vivian Richards or Sachin Tendulkar (albeit somewhat extreme examples), is it mentioned something along the lines of "considered by many to be greatest ..." Is that encyclopaedic or simply the opinion of pundits? Why isn't that removed from the article? Why are my edits instead singled out for removal? This is the inconsistent application of policies that I mentioned.
For Nathan Lyon, my edit was in fact not reverted. GOAT is an established nickname; if you watch Nine's coverage of cricket during the summer, you will hear him being called this nickname all the time. My edit was kept, but only slightly changed because the reference I provided didn't support everything I said. Please see [7]. However, everything I said was true, just difficult to reference without literally taking audio recordings of people.
My edits have not been undone multiple times except in a couple of occasions (most notably Adam Voges). I "edit warred" because I felt the same editor was going against my edits repeatedly. Why isn't he also responsible for edit warring? Why don't you post a message on his talk page too? It seems unfair. I felt that I was being singled out and no matter what I inserted, my edits would be undone. And I don't think I reverted them more than once or twice except in Adam Voges.
Finally, contrary to what you seem to be implying, I am trying to reach a consensus and discuss with other editors. Almost each and every time my edit is reverted, I go to the relevant talk page and engage in discussion. In these circumstances, I find it incorrect that you should threaten to block me. I accept your apology, but I hope you will consider trying to be a little less confrontational especially when you are not directly involved in the matter. Let me and The-Pope and Jevansen discuss this without threatening to block me. 96.248.68.27 ( talk) 12:43, 20 March 2016 (UTC)

Hello, Moondyne. 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.

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article List of International cricket families is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of International cricket families until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Jack | talk page 14:59, 30 October 2016 (UTC)
Hello,
Please note that 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 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 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 thread on the administrators' noticeboard.

Hi Moondyne.
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)

Dear User:Moondyne
As a member of the "WikiProject Australian rules football" it would be good to hear your opinion on a current debate occurring on the 2018 AFL season talk page.
The debate centres around whether or not a third column should be included in the club attendance table to display "home state games vs. interstate opposition".
The main justification is that Victorian clubs play on average 7 home derbies each year compared to non-victorian clubs who play only 1 home derby each year. This provides an average home figure for Victorian clubs which is inflated as their home games have the fans of other Victorian clubs attending.
Please provide whether you support or oppose this proposal for AFL Club attendance tables.

The Arbitration Committee may require a new RfA if your account is compromised.

This message was sent to all administrators following a recent motion. Thank you for your attention. For the Arbitration Committee, Cameron11598 02:39, 4 May 2019 (UTC)
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 required to "have strong passwords and follow appropriate personal security practices." We have updated our procedures to ensure that we enforce these policies more strictly in the future. The policies themselves have not changed. In particular, 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, - Cameron11598 21:04, 4 May 2019 (UTC)

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 better tools to help.
If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.
We have 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 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.

This is a reminder that established policy provides for removal of the administrative permissions of users who have made fewer than 100 edits over a 60-month period. You are receiving this annual reminder since you have averaged less than 50 edits per year over the last 5 years.
Inactive administrators are encouraged to reengage with 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 be engaged with the project in the foreseeable future, please consider voluntarily resigning your administrative permissions by making a request at the bureaucrats' noticeboard.
Thank you for your past contributions to the project. — JJMC89 bot 00:20, 1 January 2023 (UTC)
