Hello NotASpy, I was asking you and User:Revent in #wikipedia-en-help about User:0aheadnovel0/Walter H. Dyett High School but I got disconnected. Because User:0aheadnovel0/Walter H. Dyett High School has not been edited in more than 4 years, should I move it to Draft:Walter H. Dyett High School instead of nominating it for deletion at MfD? Draft:New Zealand Music Commission is an example of one which was moved to Draft instead of being nominated. Can you please advise me of what do in this instance. Thank you, PNGWantok ( talk) 11:01, 25 August 2014 (UTC)

Just curious, where did that image come from, and what's the free-use rational? 842U ( talk) 20:19, 5 September 2014 (UTC)
842U it's a Jaguar press image supplied by Jaguar's Middle East and North Africa press office under a free licence. They helpfully release all their images under a CC-BY licence.

Nick, I wanted to know if I should request for AWB access on WP:AN based on my performance since the revocation. [1] That time, I had about 125,000 edits, now I have 155,000. I feel that I have really learned a lot from that incident. I was aware that further objectionable editing would place me under editing restrictions like topic ban on mass editing and any automated editing. I avoided making mistakes. My talk page had number of complaints during the time you would take action, but it remains free of any complaints since the day you had revoked the access.
During this period, I have been involved with a number of backlogs, mostly Category:Biography articles without listas parameter. I also had GA, [2] DYK. [3] [4] [5] [6] Thanks OccultZone ( Talk • Contributions • Log) 14:52, 27 September 2014 (UTC)

Would you please start a new AfD for Jashodaben Chimanlal? Thanks. Please leave the content till it closes. Blue Rasberry (talk) 13:32, 30 September 2014 (UTC) |
Hello. Can you give me some options? I can talk to you now by phone or video if you email me. I can seek other comment elsewhere, but I do not want to do a deletion review because I feel that is not the right process because the judgments were all valid. I wrote a new article. You seem to not accept it. What should I do? Blue Rasberry (talk) 13:48, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
I cannot offer any other options, there are set processes to follow on Wikipedia. The previous AfD addresses the notability concerns and it was agreed amongst those who took part in that discussion that Jashodaben was not notable on their own, an issue you have yet to address despite presenting new sources. You will need to take the discussion to deletion review and demonstrate that Jashodaben is independently notable before creating a new article. It is not possible to simply create a new article and ignore the outcome of a previous AfD, one that's less than six months old and I must insist that you follow due process.

I have placed an unblock request at User talk:David Hedlund on hold. You blocked the account on 1 July, since when the editor has made a number of unblock requests. He has attempted to indicate that he understands the reason for the block, and will not do the things that led to the block again. Like other admins who declined earlier unblock requests, I am by no means sure that he really does understand well enough, but I am in favour of giving him a chance. At the worst, an unblock would be giving him enough rope to prove that he has not learnt better, in which case he can be blocked again very quickly, and at best it will turn out that he really has learnt, and we gain a constructive editor.

Hello Nick. I was going to create an article for technology author “Joseph Steinberg” {who has also been in the press for writing against sexism} and I saw you are listed as a Wikipedia Administrator who deleted a prior article about him. Your comments from that deletion state that he was bordering on being notable. After then he seems to be appearing in ‘reliable sources’ for different topics often (examples - USA Today - BBC - current Google News) and his writing shows much larger numbers of readers than before. Forbes also mentions him as a top writer one example. Worldcat now shows 749 libraries with his book. It was 544 when the old article was deleted. He seems for-sure to pass the rules for notability for authors. But I am a Wikipedia user who is new to editing. So I wanted to check with you if you still object to the article or if I can create it. I will not ask you to restore the old article as the previous deletion says the old article was very promotional. -- Thetechgirl ( talk) 21:39, 20 October 2014 (UTC)

Nick: I see you commented recently at the AN/I section on the Romanian politician article, so you've been keeping an eye on it, but I'm notifying you that as I've just said there, it seems to be time to call the question on unbanning Iaaasi. I'm not at all familiar with his case, and you clearly not only are but believe he's either rehabilitated himself such that articles he creates are now useful to the encyclopedia, or has almost reached that point, so I'm putting it to you: do you want to make the proposal? Maybe with some suggestion for mentoring, topic limitation, or similar? Yngvadottir ( talk) 17:41, 23 October 2014 (UTC)

Hi - I deleted this per WP:CSD#G5, and you undeleted it with the edit summary "I'll take responsibility for it". Whatever that may mean, it does not change the reason for the deletion, that is, being created by a banned editor in violation of their ban with no substantial contributions by others, including you. Please re-delete the article accordingly. Sandstein 11:35, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
Good day. I was wondering if you would consider undeleting Brickell Flatiron. While I recognize that many WP:Crystal ball pages of things that never came to fruition should be deleted, as well as that there are many low quality stubs on Miami-area related topics, this one has come back to life ( http://www.miamiherald.com/news/business/article1963188.html http://www.thenextmiami.com/index.php/65-story-brickell-flatiron-552-units-launches-sales/) and was/is fairly significant as a larger project with a unique design. It was also going to be a true mixed-use building and was going to be built around an elevated transit system between two properties, which is very rare. I believe the article was just a stub but it is possible that there could be some bit of history that is lost in the page, especially since many local sources such as The Miami Herald are highly prone to link-rot with no easily accessible archive. I know low quality stubs are annoying, especially when they are spammy, but this one doesn't have to be. Thank you. B137 ( talk) 02:16, 2 November 2014 (UTC)

Hello Nick,
It's been since 11th of January and i haven't had any intention for most of those months to regain access, as i forgot altogether about the whole thing, but just recently something happened that made me think i really do need to regain access. It's just that i provided the info last time in response to your reply but received no reply from yourself. Also i have a wikipedia homepage which has the password stored upon it, but the actual password is only part of the information on that page, and i haven't yet found out which part the password is, as i've only started to make attempts today. At some time in the future i'll likely be able to re-find the password, but at the moment it's just an issue of trying every variation, which is time consuming.
I'll just have to continue to attempt to at least regain access to the account via repeated attempts.
thanks

"I would, however, strongly implore the organisers of next year's WikiCup to take onboard the complaint Bloom has raised and ensure similar issues are mitigated against in future, so something productive comes from this complete disaster area." That is easier said than done. The "complaint" that Bloom made in the first instance was completely unreasonable, and he has refused to drop this stick in the many months since (spilling over, as you've seen, into RfA, and now AN/I). There may be some sense in the suggestion that a rule about "delayed updates" be put in place, but, first, it isn't clear how that rule would work, and, second, it isn't clear that there would be much support for it. (The WikiCup, like anywhere else on Wikipedia, is run on a consensus model- the judges do not decree the rules from on high.) There has been no progress in this area purely and simply because of Bloom's awful conduct. If someone else wants to push for such a rule to be put in place, it's possible that some progress would be made, but whether or not that would happen is another issue.

Hello Nick, could you please take a look at Special:Contributions/Г5исевил (G5 is evil). As you can see User:Chase me ladies, I'm the Cavalry has reverted all of my edits, and if you check the deleted contribs, he has also deleted logos and new logos which I uploaded for use in the relevant. Firstly, given the very public accusations by The Cavalry how I have made his life a living hell, don't you think he should back off on what are good edits; particularly when he isn't active as per Special:Contributions/Chase_me_ladies,_I'm_the_Cavalry. It could easily be seen as him acting in a vindictive way.

Remember last week when you closed Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/A Season for Miracles for being an inappropriate reason for deletion? Looks like the same user did it again at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Novocaine (film) (2nd nomination), since apparently, the nominator decided to try his hand at getting it deleted again. I'd close it myself, but it's not good etiquette to close a nom after I participated in it, so I think you should re-close it, and so we can get that AFD banner off the page.

I see that you have deleted and redirected the article " List of personal unions" on the grounds "(G12: Unambiguous copyright infringement: unattributed copy/paste from Personal unions)".

An editor you've warned/restricted has some continuing edits that are troubling to me (he's the Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/A Season for Miracles Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Novocaine (film) (2nd nomination) editor). He's done some quick reversions without discussion, marked major edits as minor, etc. Even though I perhaps could have reverted his edits again I instead started discussions on the articles' talk pages, posted Talkbacks on his talkpage about the article discussions and left a Notice about the minor edits issue.

Hello, you helped remove a likely/obvious copyvio in the article IMPACT, and then restored an old version of the page which covered a different topic. However, there is already an article on that topic, IMPACT (computer graphics). These clearly share some content, but I'm not sure what kind of revision lineage each bit carries, and if they're worth merging or not. Related to this, whether a merge should happen or not, IMPACT should probably redirect to impact, as there appears to be a few different acronyms of "IMPACT" with no clear primary topic for the all-caps phrase.

This is your only warning; if you
vandalize Wikipedia again, you may be
blocked from editing without further notice.
Nick in the future please try and have the issue debated in an open manner and assume the best from your fellow editors, we are an open forum that uses a broad manner to edit. We do not punish and accuse editors. You deleted an article that seems to meet the minimum number of notable neutral sources because you were not individually satisfied that Ken Sibanda is "not notable."
No page should be summarily deleted unless it is libelous. Your reasons for deleting the above page seem to be of a personal nature. The accusations against the creator of the 'Ken SIbanda' page are not sustainable.
Good luck. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Peacecorps1222 ( talk • contribs)

Hi Nick. This is Victor Foli. I was always interested in getting my piece of work published in Wikipedia, therefore I started my first article, talking about a brand called "Siyaram", famous in India for their apparels.
It seems that it was reviewed & accepted by FeatherPluma on 31st January 2015 and given an assessment of "start-class" . Oddly it seems, the same was deleted by you after couple of hours. Frankly, I just started to settle with the way things work around in Wikipedia, so can you help me understand on whether anything was wrong with the article I created. Help me understand, why the article was deleted.
Following timestamp was registered, when I went on to see the Siyaram's talk page:
20:16, 31 January 2015 Nick (talk | contribs) deleted page Talk:Siyaram's (R2: Cross-namespace redirect from mainspace: G8: Talk page of a deleted page)

Thank you Nick for your prompt response. I would also like to state that the draft status on the Siyaram's page is still showing to be "Under Review". And there are no details on the draft outlining the issue of the same. Will be great, if you could let me know when can I get some idea on what are the necessary changes required for the article.

(I refer to this thread, just so we're in the clear. Also, as stated, I'm gonna rant here a bit, so feel free to remove this off your talk page if you so desire.)
I myself have not used Wikipedia in a long while, and as such am unfamiliar with the current block and unblock policies. However, if I were to see an unfair block myself on any user, I would take the liberty of reversing it. This is not to say that Reguyla's block was unfair (by all means, extending a block is fine, but completely resetting it is just bad news bears) even if I myself believe it to be such, but what I mean is if it were obviously unfair, unwarrented, unneeded.
I myself work under my own policies. If I see something wrong, I don't hesitate to fix it, no matter who caused it. I, as an admin for a few wikis over on Wikia, have gone by this. It's gotten people on my behind about it, but many admins on several wikis do see why I do things that way: if I believe that action to be the right one to take, whether it be for the rules or even against them, I do it. I'd even go so far as to say I wouldn't consider ArbCom higher authority if they did something out of line. Let me put it this way: I don't consider myself high authority to anyone. I do what is right or at least what I think is right. Even if ordered otherwise, if I see something isn't getting fixed, I'm willing to ignore orders to fix it myself. I've just always been that way. The rules come second, and the correct measures come first, even if I'm unsure...
I do apologize for posting this on your talk page so suddenly. I just wanted to say that to someone. It gets on my nerves a bit when I want to say something yet I feel awkward doing so... - LikeLakers2 ( talk | Sign my guestbook!) 05:13, 9 March 2015 (UTC)

Hi Nick,
The article written about Michael Pawlyn was completely original and it took me a long time learn how to put together on wiki and complete. The Exploration articles was only for myself and Michael to look at and work out what the content would be. I took the content from the Architecture Foundation with whom we had collaborated with on an exhibition but only as an example rather than final copy. I think you actions verge on being spiteful. I can see the point of removing salacious or pornographic material from wiki but information about relevant individuals is appropriate. I am not even sure if there is a conflict of interest with ecobuild as I supplied them with that image in the first place. The picture of Michael was taken by a photography who supplied permission for us to use it - it is featured on the exploration website so I can see no problem with it being used on wiki.
I would be grateful if you could let me have access to the content that I generated as I have no record of it.

Would it not have been easier to point that out than make me start all over again? And, as I said the Exploration page was a place holder for me to show Michael what it could look like prior to writing text. We provided the Architecture Foundation with the text in the first place - as with the content for ecobuild. So don't keep banging on about copyright. I get it. What I don't get is your just blasting away hours of work without communicating with me first.
It would have been so easy to rectify. Now I have to start from scratch which is really sickening.

That is fine, but I'd like to request that the deleted content be restored to the article's edit history, as some of the now-deleted hidden text contained content which I believe may be usefully incorporated into the mainspace version of the article.

Hi, as a user in the edit filter manager user group we wanted to let you know about the new 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 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!

Hello. Can you give me some options? I can talk to you now by phone or video if you email me.

I cannot offer any other options, there are set processes to follow on Wikipedia. The previous AfD addresses the notability concerns and it was agreed amongst those who took part in that discussion that Jashodaben was not notable on their own, an issue you have yet to address despite presenting new sources. You will need to take the discussion to deletion review and demonstrate that Jashodaben is independently notable before creating a new article. It is not possible to simply create a new article and ignore the outcome of a previous AfD, one that's less than six months old and I must insist that you follow due process.

I have placed an unblock request at User talk:David Hedlund on hold. You blocked the account on 1 July, since when the editor has made a number of unblock requests. He has attempted to indicate that he understands the reason for the block, and will not do the things that led to the block again. Like other admins who declined earlier unblock requests, I am by no means sure that he really does understand well enough, but I am in favour of giving him a chance. At the worst, an unblock would be giving him enough rope to prove that he has not learnt better, in which case he can be blocked again very quickly, and at best it will turn out that he really has learnt, and we gain a constructive editor.

Hello Nick. I was going to create an article for technology author “Joseph Steinberg” {who has also been in the press for writing against sexism} and I saw you are listed as a Wikipedia Administrator who deleted a prior article about him. Your comments from that deletion state that he was bordering on being notable. After then he seems to be appearing in ‘reliable sources’ for different topics often (examples - USA Today - BBC - current Google News) and his writing shows much larger numbers of readers than before. Forbes also mentions him as a top writer one example. Worldcat now shows 749 libraries with his book. It was 544 when the old article was deleted. He seems for-sure to pass the rules for notability for authors. But I am a Wikipedia user who is new to editing. So I wanted to check with you if you still object to the article or if I can create it. I will not ask you to restore the old article as the previous deletion says the old article was very promotional. -- Thetechgirl ( talk) 21:39, 20 October 2014 (UTC)

Hi - I deleted this per WP:CSD#G5, and you undeleted it with the edit summary "I'll take responsibility for it".

Please re-delete the article accordingly. Sandstein 11:35, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
Good day. I was wondering if you would consider undeleting Brickell Flatiron. While I recognize that many WP:Crystal ball pages of things that never came to fruition should be deleted, as well as that there are many low quality stubs on Miami-area related topics, this one has come back to life ( http://www.miamiherald.com/news/business/article1963188.html http://www.thenextmiami.com/index.php/65-story-brickell-flatiron-552-units-launches-sales/) and was/is fairly significant as a larger project with a unique design. It was also going to be a true mixed-use building and was going to be built around an elevated transit system between two properties, which is very rare. I believe the article was just a stub but it is possible that there could be some bit of history that is lost in the page, especially since many local sources such as The Miami Herald are highly prone to link-rot with no easily accessible archive. I know low quality stubs are annoying, especially when they are spammy, but this one doesn't have to be. Thank you. B137 ( talk) 02:16, 2 November 2014 (UTC)

Hello Nick,
It's been since 11th of January and i haven't had any intention for most of those months to regain access, as i forgot altogether about the whole thing, but just recently something happened that made me think i really do need to regain access. It's just that i provided the info last time in response to your reply but received no reply from yourself. Also i have a wikipedia homepage which has the password stored upon it, but the actual password is only part of the information on that page, and i haven't yet found out which part the password is, as i've only started to make attempts today. At some time in the future i'll likely be able to re-find the password, but at the moment it's just an issue of trying every variation, which is time consuming.
I'll just have to continue to attempt to at least regain access to the account via repeated attempts.

"I would, however, strongly implore the organisers of next year's WikiCup to take onboard the complaint Bloom has raised and ensure similar issues are mitigated against in future, so something productive comes from this complete disaster area." That is easier said than done. The "complaint" that Bloom made in the first instance was completely unreasonable, and he has refused to drop this stick in the many months since (spilling over, as you've seen, into RfA, and now AN/I). There may be some sense in the suggestion that a rule about "delayed updates" be put in place, but, first, it isn't clear how that rule would work, and, second, it isn't clear that there would be much support for it. (The WikiCup, like anywhere else on Wikipedia, is run on a consensus model- the judges do not decree the rules from on high.) There has been no progress in this area purely and simply because of Bloom's awful conduct. If someone else wants to push for such a rule to be put in place, it's possible that some progress would be made, but whether or not that would happen is another issue.

Hello Nick, could you please take a look at Special:Contributions/Г5исевил (G5 is evil). As you can see User:Chase me ladies, I'm the Cavalry has reverted all of my edits, and if you check the deleted contribs, he has also deleted logos and new logos which I uploaded for use in the relevant. Firstly, given the very public accusations by The Cavalry how I have made his life a living hell, don't you think he should back off on what are good edits; particularly when he isn't active as per Special:Contributions/Chase_me_ladies,_I'm_the_Cavalry. It could easily be seen as him acting in a vindictive way.
Nick, could you please undelete the files and revert his edits.

Remember last week when you closed Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/A Season for Miracles for being an inappropriate reason for deletion? Looks like the same user did it again at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Novocaine (film) (2nd nomination), since apparently, the nominator decided to try his hand at getting it deleted again. I'd close it myself, but it's not good etiquette to close a nom after I participated in it, so I think you should re-close it, and so we can get that AFD banner off the page.

I see that you have deleted and redirected the article " List of personal unions" on the grounds "(G12: Unambiguous copyright infringement: unattributed copy/paste from Personal unions)".

An editor you've warned/restricted has some continuing edits that are troubling to me (he's the Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/A Season for Miracles Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Novocaine (film) (2nd nomination) editor). He's done some quick reversions without discussion, marked major edits as minor, etc. Even though I perhaps could have reverted his edits again I instead started discussions on the articles' talk pages, posted Talkbacks on his talkpage about the article discussions and left a Notice about the minor edits issue.

Hello, you helped remove a likely/obvious copyvio in the article IMPACT, and then restored an old version of the page which covered a different topic. However, there is already an article on that topic, IMPACT (computer graphics). These clearly share some content, but I'm not sure what kind of revision lineage each bit carries, and if they're worth merging or not. Related to this, whether a merge should happen or not, IMPACT should probably redirect to impact, as there appears to be a few different acronyms of "IMPACT" with no clear primary topic for the all-caps phrase. Thanks for having looked into this! djr13 ( talk) 09:49, 21 January 2015 (UTC)
This is your only warning; if you
vandalize Wikipedia again, you may be
blocked from editing without further notice.
Nick in the future please try and have the issue debated in an open manner and assume the best from your fellow editors, we are an open forum that uses a broad manner to edit. We do not punish and accuse editors. You deleted an article that seems to meet the minimum number of notable neutral sources because you were not individually satisfied that Ken Sibanda is "not notable."
No page should be summarily deleted unless it is libelous. Your reasons for deleting the above page seem to be of a personal nature. The accusations against the creator of the 'Ken SIbanda' page are not sustainable.
Good luck. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Peacecorps1222 ( talk • contribs)

Hi Nick. This is Victor Foli. I was always interested in getting my piece of work published in Wikipedia, therefore I started my first article, talking about a brand called "Siyaram", famous in India for their apparels.
It seems that it was reviewed & accepted by FeatherPluma on 31st January 2015 and given an assessment of "start-class" . Oddly it seems, the same was deleted by you after couple of hours. Frankly, I just started to settle with the way things work around in Wikipedia, so can you help me understand on whether anything was wrong with the article I created. Help me understand, why the article was deleted.
Following timestamp was registered, when I went on to see the Siyaram's talk page:
20:16, 31 January 2015 Nick (talk | contribs) deleted page Talk:Siyaram's (R2: Cross-namespace redirect from mainspace: G8: Talk page of a deleted page)

Requesting your help to understand the situation. Thanks.
Thank you Nick for your prompt response. I would also like to state that the draft status on the Siyaram's page is still showing to be "Under Review". And there are no details on the draft outlining the issue of the same. Will be great, if you could let me know when can I get some idea on what are the necessary changes required for the article.

(I refer to this thread, just so we're in the clear. Also, as stated, I'm gonna rant here a bit, so feel free to remove this off your talk page if you so desire.)
I myself have not used Wikipedia in a long while, and as such am unfamiliar with the current block and unblock policies. However, if I were to see an unfair block myself on any user, I would take the liberty of reversing it. This is not to say that Reguyla's block was unfair (by all means, extending a block is fine, but completely resetting it is just bad news bears) even if I myself believe it to be such, but what I mean is if it were obviously unfair, unwarrented, unneeded.
I myself work under my own policies. If I see something wrong, I don't hesitate to fix it, no matter who caused it. I, as an admin for a few wikis over on Wikia, have gone by this. It's gotten people on my behind about it, but many admins on several wikis do see why I do things that way: if I believe that action to be the right one to take, whether it be for the rules or even against them, I do it. I'd even go so far as to say I wouldn't consider ArbCom higher authority if they did something out of line. Let me put it this way: I don't consider myself high authority to anyone. I do what is right or at least what I think is right. Even if ordered otherwise, if I see something isn't getting fixed, I'm willing to ignore orders to fix it myself. I've just always been that way. The rules come second, and the correct measures come first, even if I'm unsure...
I do apologize for posting this on your talk page so suddenly. I just wanted to say that to someone. It gets on my nerves a bit when I want to say something yet I feel awkward doing so... - LikeLakers2 ( talk | Sign my guestbook!) 05:13, 9 March 2015 (UTC)

Kjhathome ( talk) 08:39, 13 March 2015 (UTC)
Hi Nick,
The article written about Michael Pawlyn was completely original and it took me a long time learn how to put together on wiki and complete. The Exploration articles was only for myself and Michael to look at and work out what the content would be. I took the content from the Architecture Foundation with whom we had collaborated with on an exhibition but only as an example rather than final copy. I think you actions verge on being spiteful. I can see the point of removing salacious or pornographic material from wiki but information about relevant individuals is appropriate. I am not even sure if there is a conflict of interest with ecobuild as I supplied them with that image in the first place. The picture of Michael was taken by a photography who supplied permission for us to use it - it is featured on the exploration website so I can see no problem with it being used on wiki.
I would be grateful if you could let me have access to the content that I generated as I have no record of it.
Regards,
Kjhathome ( talk) 15:49, 13 March 2015 (UTC)
Nick
Would it not have been easier to point that out than make me start all over again? And, as I said the Exploration page was a place holder for me to show Michael what it could look like prior to writing text. We provided the Architecture Foundation with the text in the first place - as with the content for ecobuild. So don't keep banging on about copyright. I get it. What I don't get is your just blasting away hours of work without communicating with me first.
It would have been so easy to rectify. Now I have to start from scratch which is really sickening.

I've seen you about, like what you do, and feel obliged to give praise where praise is due. It's great to see a good administrator at work, cheers. Cassianto Talk 17:35, 24 August 2015 (UTC) |

Hi, as a user in the edit filter manager user group we wanted to let you know about the new 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 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!
