Heya hope you are having a good morning I have some questions to ask you. SkyTheWolf ( Talk) 20:19, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
Hello, I saw this editor who removed a large portion of Wikipedia:Protection policy with the WP:XC user right and thing they might have WP:PGAME'd to get there in order to try to avoid detection by bots/filters. They only have 13 live contribs and can only assume this since they have no talk page history and no warnings for over 500 deleted edits? Their edits overall do not seem constructive and I don't think that them having access to EC pages is a benefit unless I am missing something I can't see with their deleted history. Thanks, Terasail [✉️] 20:37, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
Hello Primefac. I hope that you are doing great. Even though they are under the same segment, Sony Music Group (Worldwide operations) and Sony Music Entertainment (Japan) (Japanese operations) are independent entities. Therefore, I suggest editing Sony Music's template and creating a new template dedicated to Sony Music Entertainment (Japan).
Since I am still relatively new to editing, I am not sure if I have the right to conduct these changes. Additionally, can you please take a look at my articles ( Draft:Lasengle & Draft:Boundary) and give me some feedback?
Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ChaosSlayer ( talk • contribs) 00:46, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
Hi @ Primefac, thanks for granting me the permission of page mover! I would like to move Category:Stored-value_payment_card to Category:Stored-value_payment_cards (make it plural), am I allowed to simply do that myself (and modify the category on the pages of course), or do I still need to reach consensus with other editors? For what its worth, I made the category myself before. PhotographyEdits ( talk) 19:47, 27 March 2022 (UTC)
Names of topic categories should be singular, which implies that it should be "card" and not "cards." Primefac ( talk) 09:35, 28 March 2022 (UTC)

This article have a section of most viewed trailer in first 24 hour. Iron man 3 trailer got 20 million view in 24 hour and it is in the list. So why not kgf 2. I have also provided source. Though kgf 2 teaser trailer has 269 Million view which should be in 3rd of top 1 teaser trailer. But it has no source. But main trailer has source to have place in most viewed trailer in first 24 hour. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Partha Hiranmay ( talk • contribs) 17:10, 29 March 2022 (UTC)
Sorry, I had not noticed that, it is not a article historical record But would you kindly add K.G.F 2 teaser which got 269 Million view, if I provide source .

Many thanks for updating the rugby infobox template to accommodate honorific suffixes! I think I submitted an edit request for this years ago, but nothing ever happened. It would be great, however, if you could adjust the coding to size the honorific suffix in the same way as the person and sportsperson infoboxes. Thanks again!

/Archive 1
of the newer page. The other option is to merge them and then just restore the old comments. Actually, there's a third option, which is to just leave them where they are because who cares. Based on the age of the threads at the older Talk page (2014) I would go with the "archive" version since they're not current/relevant any more.

14:00, 31 March 2022 (UTC)Hi, Primefac! Since you're an admin and I can't list this on any Admin taskforce page, I want to propose a template for "redirections for sponsored names" of article topics. I'm working on re-instating the information of Vodafone Ghana Music Awards to Ghana Music Awards on grounds of title/headline sponsorship, but Wikipedians are doubting/questioning my action. I feel that the "redirections from alternative names" template alone ain't siting right with me, with the redirects of pages like, La Liga Santander, Carabao Cup and DStv Premiership backing my point. I'll be waiting for your response. Thanks!! Pannra ( talk) 17:53, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
Hello, I saw in the editing history of No-confidence motion against Imran Khan that the history merger was completed. I suggested history merger from three pages, first was from the page I created 2022 vote of no confidence in the Imran Khan ministry (it started with a different name), most of the authorship for the current article comes from my work, however I am not credited due to the copying pasting done by User:MasterOfMetaverse, all my work is now credited to the user who copied and pasted it and has a total of 76 edits on Wikipedia.

Hi Primefac, since you're both an administrator and a checkuser, I wished to request you directly to grant me IP block exempt permission. Yesterday, while I was using a VPN connection, I found myself blocked from Wikipedia due to the IP that is recognised as belonging to a corporation. Sometimes, I need to be on VPN because a number of foreign sites don't open on my Indian ISP. Examples include the websites of Texas/Ohio legislatures. I, despite being from India, show significant interest in US related articles, and thus sometimes VPN is a necessity. I could've mailed this request, but because my usage of VPN isn't for anonymity reasons, I believe it's better to keep a record of the same on Wikipedia. I have also read all rules and conditions for this right, and agree to abide by the same. Thanks! --- CX Zoom(he/him) ( let's talk| contribs) 15:43, 1 April 2022 (UTC)
Hi Primefac,
I got an e-mail asking me to perform a range block. I don't think I have sufficient technical understanding of range blocks to know if it is appropriate, but I see you have recently blocked one of the IPs involved for the type of disruption the person who e-mailed me is concerned about. Your block summary indicates it is a known long term abuser. The suggested range block is 78.3.48.0/21. Do you think that is an appropriate range block? I want to minimize collateral damage. ~ ONUnicorn( Talk| Contribs) problem solving 19:42, 3 April 2022 (UTC)

Hello again, Primefac. I had some concerns about some past moves you did when Wikipedia:Article wizard shifted to the current (version 3.0). Basically the pages that started their life at Wikipedia:Article wizard 2.0 currently reside at Wikipedia:Article wizard/version1 & the original version 1 was moved to Wikipedia:Article wizard/version1/old. Their current locations are kind of really weird. And I couldn't even find a discussion regarding the same, so assuming it was an unilateral move. If you don't have any concerns, can I move them to what should ideally be their name? I'll do all the link cleanup work. Thanks! — CX Zoom[he/him] ( let's talk • C • L) 13:42, 11 April 2022 (UTC)

Please advise me as to what I did wrong with this redirect which you did not delete. It had been tagged as {{ db-afc-move}} by a reviewer who wished to accept the draft. I moved the redirect into draft space and changed the tagging to {{ db-moved}}, which states that the page was tagged for deletion, and was then moved by a page mover. However, deletion is still considered non-controversial maintenance. We still don't need the moved redirect. I have now accepted the article on Esther Hill Hawks. Did I make some mistake in how I dealt with the redirect? Robert McClenon ( talk) 15:06, 14 April 2022 (UTC)
If there's one thing I've learned, is that you always must keep your word with others. Especially in a strict field like wikipedia. As I said, reflecting, I think the reason why I got back into my higher quality files ship is because there was a specific poster I wanted to be on the inbox of the second sonic movie. Now that the film and the poster are finally out, I'm officially off the ship. My only question left is if there is a program used to reduce image size, tell me what is it cause I'd love to check it out. ChallengeCick ( talk) 19:02, 11 April 2022 (UTC)

No objection to the removal of the flag; I almost removed it myself when I removed the "extended confirmed" flag, but I saw at the time that a half dozen or so other administrators also had that flag, so I figured I'd leave it alone. Just curious, do the administrators who keep that flag need it solely for Tor usage? (I don't use Tor, so that wouldn't affect me.) As a side note, I saw a few other administrators still had the extended confirmed flag, which puzzled me a bit, but I didn't dig into it at the time. 28bytes ( talk) 02:56, 19 April 2022 (UTC)
Hello, Primefac,
Since you are a functionary, I imagine you are a part of all of the discussions that go on behind-the-scenes so I had a question for you:In the past year, I've noticed that when an active editor of Wikipedia passes, their account is blocked. This is especially true if they were a long-time editor or an administrator. Has this been discussed anywhere or is it just an informal custom that has evolved over the past few years?
I ask because I came across an edit by a deceased administrator whose account wasn't blocked and I wasn't sure if it was appropriate for me to block it or if I should ask a functionary or bureaucrat to do so. I don't expect to run into this again but I thought I'd ask you, as you are more up-to-date on policies and guidelines than just about anyone else I can think of. Thank you, in advance, and I hope you are having a pleasant weekend. Liz Read! Talk! 21:02, 9 April 2022 (UTC)

Following a discussion at the Bureaucrats' noticeboard, the minimum activity requirements for bureaucrats have been updated to also include the the recently updated minimum editing requirements for administrators (i.e. at least 100 edits every 5 years). This will be enforced beginning in January 2023. Should you no longer wish to volunteer as a bureaucrat you may request removal at SRP and.or let us know at WP:BN.

Thank you for the histmerge on The Challenge: All Stars (season 3). I was wondering if whenever you get a chance, could you can do another one. Maybe a bit more complicated, but not sure how hard the process is. The season one page was originally at The Challenge: All Stars, but was transferred to The Challenge: All Stars (season 1) in a cut/paste move. Is it possible for all the history that's currently at The Challenge: All Stars before February 17 to be transferred to The Challenge: All Stars (season 1), and everything from Feb 17 [6] until now remains as the history for The Challenge: All Stars.

Hello. I greatly approve of the removal of associated acts section, as it always got overinflated, among various other issues. However, I read on the template that the "spinoff of" parameter was only for bands. For Wikipedia, it would be a great idea to expand the instructions for this parameter to solo artists as well, as many artists have larger artists that they’ve been spun off or branched off from in terms of their success. Artists included in the spinoff parameter will be considered a "mentor" of the artist, while the artists' article will be their "protégé." Expanding this will add encyclopedic value to the parameter and provide an important delegation of information. What are your thoughts on this? ChristianCanada ( talk) 18:38, 22 May 2022 (UTC)

I noticed that there was already a task for removing UTM parameters. I think the URL in this github file (indirect since .xyz is blacklisted) has more rules to find and replace. Do you think we could amend your bot task to include more parameters (fbclid, gclid, ref_, etc.), or do you think it would be more beneficial to make it a manual task? 0xDEADBEEF ( T C) 01:37, 8 May 2022 (UTC)

Hi @ Primefac: I do not have access to the regex that you are using, but based on some of my edits with JWB I noticed issues as well.

I don't claim to be able to competently interpret compressed .js or .css files, but the <h4 class="mw-index-pager-list-header">24 May 2022</h4>
headers are there in the HTML for contrib histories, but - as best I can tell - suppressed via this CSS {display:none}.mw-index-pager-list-header:not(.mw-index-pager-list-header-first)
found in this particular megaload

When you copy the web page content, it picks up these headers and they end up visible in your Excel sheet because, after the paste, there is no equivalent to the CSS directives to suppress them. I wonder if in some other skin, they show up. — jmcgnh (talk) (contribs) 08:19, 26 May 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I saw this editor who removed a large portion of Wikipedia:Protection policy with the WP:XC user right and thing they might have WP:PGAME'd to get there in order to try to avoid detection by bots/filters. They only have 13 live contribs and can only assume this since they have no talk page history and no warnings for over 500 deleted edits? Their edits overall do not seem constructive and I don't think that them having access to EC pages is a benefit unless I am missing something I can't see with their deleted history. Thanks, Terasail [✉️] 20:37, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
Hello Primefac. I hope that you are doing great. Even though they are under the same segment, Sony Music Group (Worldwide operations) and Sony Music Entertainment (Japan) (Japanese operations) are independent entities. Therefore, I suggest editing Sony Music's template and creating a new template dedicated to Sony Music Entertainment (Japan).
Since I am still relatively new to editing, I am not sure if I have the right to conduct these changes. Additionally, can you please take a look at my articles ( Draft:Lasengle & Draft:Boundary) and give me some feedback?

I'm working on re-instating the information of Vodafone Ghana Music Awards to Ghana Music Awards on grounds of title/headline sponsorship, but Wikipedians are doubting/questioning my action.

Hi Primefac, since you're both an administrator and a checkuser, I wished to request you directly to grant me IP block exempt permission. Yesterday, while I was using a VPN connection, I found myself blocked from Wikipedia due to the IP that is recognised as belonging to a corporation. Sometimes, I need to be on VPN because a number of foreign sites don't open on my Indian ISP. Examples include the websites of Texas/Ohio legislatures. I, despite being from India, show significant interest in US related articles, and thus sometimes VPN is a necessity. I could've mailed this request, but because my usage of VPN isn't for anonymity reasons, I believe it's better to keep a record of the same on Wikipedia. I have also read all rules and conditions for this right, and agree to abide by the same. Thanks! --- CX Zoom(he/him) ( let's talk| contribs) 15:43, 1 April 2022 (UTC)
Hi Primefac,
I got an e-mail asking me to perform a range block. I don't think I have sufficient technical understanding of range blocks to know if it is appropriate, but I see you have recently blocked one of the IPs involved for the type of disruption the person who e-mailed me is concerned about. Your block summary indicates it is a known long term abuser. The suggested range block is 78.3.48.0/21. Do you think that is an appropriate range block?

Hello again, Primefac. I had some concerns about some past moves you did when Wikipedia:Article wizard shifted to the current (version 3.0). Basically the pages that started their life at Wikipedia:Article wizard 2.0 currently reside at Wikipedia:Article wizard/version1 & the original version 1 was moved to Wikipedia:Article wizard/version1/old. Their current locations are kind of really weird. And I couldn't even find a discussion regarding the same, so assuming it was an unilateral move.

Please advise me as to what I did wrong with this redirect which you did not delete. It had been tagged as {{ db-afc-move}} by a reviewer who wished to accept the draft. I moved the redirect into draft space and changed the tagging to {{ db-moved}}, which states that the page was tagged for deletion, and was then moved by a page mover.

If there's one thing I've learned, is that you always must keep your word with others. Especially in a strict field like wikipedia.

No objection to the removal of the flag; I almost removed it myself when I removed the "extended confirmed" flag, but I saw at the time that a half dozen or so other administrators also had that flag, so I figured I'd leave it alone. Just curious, do the administrators who keep that flag need it solely for Tor usage? (I don't use Tor, so that wouldn't affect me.) As a side note, I saw a few other administrators still had the extended confirmed flag, which puzzled me a bit, but I didn't dig into it at the time. 28bytes ( talk) 02:56, 19 April 2022 (UTC)
Hello, Primefac,
Since you are a functionary, I imagine you are a part of all of the discussions that go on behind-the-scenes so I had a question for you:In the past year, I've noticed that when an active editor of Wikipedia passes, their account is blocked. This is especially true if they were a long-time editor or an administrator. Has this been discussed anywhere or is it just an informal custom that has evolved over the past few years?
I ask because I came across an edit by a deceased administrator whose account wasn't blocked and I wasn't sure if it was appropriate for me to block it or if I should ask a functionary or bureaucrat to do so. I don't expect to run into this again but I thought I'd ask you, as you are more up-to-date on policies and guidelines than just about anyone else I can think of. Thank you, in advance, and I hope you are having a pleasant weekend. Liz Read! Talk! 21:02, 9 April 2022 (UTC)

Hi, can you make your bot clean twitter track params like this: https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=File:Avatar_The_Way_of_Water_poster.jpg&diff=prev&oldid=1087305536 s and t params basically, they are twitter's tracking params. Tehonk ( talk) 23:35, 11 May 2022 (UTC)

12:53, 13 May 2022 (UTC)Hi, why did you remove the infoboxes from this article? I think it looks better with them. How are they unnecessary? Davidgoodheart ( talk) 19:36, 14 May 2022 (UTC)
OK, understand that there aren't any attribution issues here (the series of sports team ones [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]), but I would argue that these should be deleted since the author has copy-paste moved them to bypass a draftification, due to the complete absence of sources in the articles in question. Should I take these to a bulk AfD instead? Mako001 (C) (T) 🇺🇦 01:44, 15 May 2022 (UTC)
Thank you for the histmerge on The Challenge: All Stars (season 3). I was wondering if whenever you get a chance, could you can do another one. Maybe a bit more complicated, but not sure how hard the process is. The season one page was originally at The Challenge: All Stars, but was transferred to The Challenge: All Stars (season 1) in a cut/paste move. Is it possible for all the history that's currently at The Challenge: All Stars before February 17 to be transferred to The Challenge: All Stars (season 1), and everything from Feb 17 [6] until now remains as the history for The Challenge: All Stars. Thanks for your time. WikiVirus C (talk) 18:39, 14 May 2022 (UTC)
Struggling to understand why you draftified Hush Puppy (Australian 'Surf-Rock' Band) when it was at AFD. Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Hush Puppy (Australian 'Surf-Rock' Band) Creator repeatedly moved the draft to main space against all advice by reviewers, now the draft has been re-titled as Draft:Hush Puppy - (band), tendentiously re-submitted unchanged and declined again, despite her assurance that they had “opted to re-draft the page and continue working on it.” Theroadislong ( talk) 19:58, 16 May 2022 (UTC)

Hello again.
Ever since I abused the ability for uploading files (specifically with Sonic Movie 2), I wanted to practice a little bit. And so far, it's going great! So I suggest giving me one final chance at uploading files on wikipedia. I would highly appreciate the unblock. ChallengeCick ( talk) 15:14, 18 May 2022 (UTC)
Hi Primefac-
On another note, is there an adjustment that can be made for the Bite Ninja, Inc. article prior to a full deletion? Please let me know at your convenience - want to ensure compliance! Semonative ( talk) 18:48, 19 May 2022 (UTC)Semonative

Hi Primefac-
Is there any chance you could offer me some more detail on the deletion of the Izaak Opatz page? I created this page over two years ago, and it was recently deleted after I made the addition of his most recent album.

Hello, I just recieved a denied request for the PsyNFT.xyz whitelist.
When would this site be able to be approved in the future? Before it was denied for using the PsyNFT account, which this is not. I am not associated with them in any way, just a fan of their work.
Can I please get a reason why the site is blacklisted in the first place? Just because of the xyz domain? Thank you! MarianaP123 ( talk) 18:14, 21 May 2022 (UTC)
Hello. I greatly approve of the removal of associated acts section, as it always got overinflated, among various other issues. However, I read on the template that the "spinoff of" parameter was only for bands. For Wikipedia, it would be a great idea to expand the instructions for this parameter to solo artists as well, as many artists have larger artists that they’ve been spun off or branched off from in terms of their success. Artists included in the spinoff parameter will be considered a "mentor" of the artist, while the artists' article will be their "protégé." Expanding this will add encyclopedic value to the parameter and provide an important delegation of information. What are your thoughts on this? ChristianCanada ( talk) 18:38, 22 May 2022 (UTC)

I noticed that there was already a task for removing UTM parameters. I think the URL in this github file (indirect since .xyz is blacklisted) has more rules to find and replace. Do you think we could amend your bot task to include more parameters (fbclid, gclid, ref_, etc.), or do you think it would be more beneficial to make it a manual task? 0xDEADBEEF ( T C) 01:37, 8 May 2022 (UTC)
Bug report for this task: this change to Acronym was made with an error. It removed the fragment part of the URL incorrectly.

Hi @ Primefac: I do not have access to the regex that you are using, but based on some of my edits with JWB I noticed issues as well. For example it matches `URL?myutm_content=1` and reduces it to `URL?my` with the regex. Would you mind stopping it and write more tests? 0xDeadbeef ( T C) 04:55, 10 May 2022 (UTC)
I don't claim to be able to competently interpret compressed .js or .css files, but the <h4 class="mw-index-pager-list-header">24 May 2022</h4>
headers are there in the HTML for contrib histories, but - as best I can tell - suppressed via this CSS {display:none}.mw-index-pager-list-header:not(.mw-index-pager-list-header-first)
found in this particular megaload
en
When you copy the web page content, it picks up these headers and they end up visible in your Excel sheet because, after the paste, there is no equivalent to the CSS directives to suppress them. I wonder if in some other skin, they show up. — jmcgnh (talk) (contribs) 08:19, 26 May 2022 (UTC)

I wish I could take it elsewhere, but he only seems to want to communicate with vandalism on Wikipedia. He tried harassing me on social media; when I answered back he blocked me… Yet he seems very keen on letting his presence known on Wikipedia. No idea what to do. Nehme 1499 11:10, 27 May 2022 (UTC)

I wondered if you noticed if three participants in the discussion have no editing history outside the topic area, two have only ever commented (very similarly) in the AfD.

Hi @ Primefac:, Hope you are doing good in your respective field. Recently, I noticed that this user created two Wikipedia user accounts i.e User:Mani Raj Paul and another one is User:Mr.Mani Raj Paul. I know this by seeing these two accounts user page as there is similar information upon Mani Raj Paul. In my opinion this user is innocent. I want to hear from you about what action should be taken to this user. (Note:I am not bothering this user.) Fade258 ( talk) 12:21, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
