Hello, Salvidrim!
I still would like to
finnish that. I would like to bring it to pt.wikipedia Village Pump, so we can have a final decision there. We had
some opinions from local sysops and I believe that from our side it only needs community confirmation.
If there is no problem, I am starting a discussion there, but please confirm to me that, if we get local consensus, this change can be made. Kind regards.—

Clearing old unblock requests, and came across User talk:Nikolaos-throuvis. He says all the right things in his unblock request; any objection to unblocking per WP:ROPE? -- Jayron 32 20:40, 2 January 2018 (UTC)

Do I understand correctly from your disclosure on User:Salvidrim! (paid) that you've been paid by a banned editor, User:MisterWiki, to proxy edit for him? Surely not... -- Floquenbeam ( talk) 20:35, 1 November 2017 (UTC)
Hi Salvidrim - this was quite a contentious deletion discussion, so I was a bit surprised to see it closed (twice in one day) with no discussion from the closer. Would you consider adding a rationale to the closing note, explaining how you came to your decision? Thanks Pburka ( talk) 23:52, 10 November 2017 (UTC)
...for your very thoughtful
expoundment. Let's make it a word. Closes like yours are extremely helpful to my understanding of the various perspectives and evaluative thought processes that fuel the WP engine. I just wanted to briefly explain why I cited
WP:NOTDIRECTORY & did so without explanation: I have been criticized in the past for reciting policy to veteran editors and admins, and told they don't appreciate having policy recited to them.
Just curious...if I had demonstrated which portion of the policy to which I referred, would it have made a difference in the outcome? My lede comment stated "I exist therefore I'm notable argument fails GNG" which I believed was already adequately explained in the
VP RfC. I thought that simply citing the
relative policy that supported my position would be adequate - specifically that Wikipedia is not a directory of everything in the universe that exists or has existed. If policy unambiguously states that WP is not a directory of everything simply because it exists or has existed, it would drive home the point. You didn't think so, and apparently needed something more. That's the part I'm not quite understanding. My discussion here is not for any other reason than to obtain a better understanding of the outcome and to improve my presentations in future debates.

However, closing an AfD as delete when there are twice as many !votes for keeping as deleting, regardless of the relative strengths of arguments is practically unjustifiable---you've hit the nail on the head:) Winged Blades of Godric On leave 15:02, 11 November 2017 (UTC)
Hi, Salvidrim!. I've moved you from the active SPI clerk list to temporarily inactive. This is based on a discussion of the functionaries. The action is not intended to be punitive; nor is it an action by ArbCom. After your arbitration case has concluded, the functionaries will again discuss what your status should be at SPI and, if appropriate and in conformance with your wishes, move you back to active status. In the meantime, please refrain from any clerking at SPI. Thanks for your understanding.-- Bbb23 ( talk) 16:18, 21 December 2017 (UTC)
Your self-criticism on your user page is completely on-point; the only thing you didn't do that you should have was resign tools when the case opened, since the result is a foredrawn conclusion and there is no sense being emotionally beat up for five weeks over such things. I'd encourage you to resign tools, even at this late date, to have a great Christmas and New Year's, and to come back strong as an editor in 2018. There's really no benefit to the project with you burning yourself out fighting against inevitable forces of nature; nor should your value as a Wikipedian be measured as to whether you are holding an Admin flag or not — that shit ultimately matters NOT AT ALL to the real purpose of WP, which is creating a massive and reliable encyclopedia.
So stand down, stop beating yourself up, stop being beat up by others, and start again refreshed and free. Best regards, —tim /// Carrite ( talk) 14:15, 22 December 2017 (UTC)

Recently, you made a change to your Dashboard. The result of this change is that you now appear in this list at the very bottom under "Pages included". Your appearance in that list has increased the number of EDIT Req's that display in the COI edit req template, so that it now reads 1 pending request more than it should. The template draws from that list, what number to display. Before your change to the Dashboard, the number had been perpetually stuck at 3 pending (when in fact there are none pending) which shows that in addition to you, there are 3 other rogue templates lurking out there. With the pending edit request backlog at around 100+ just a few weeks ago, these rogue templates were easily hidden, and it was impossible to notice that the count was off. But now that the list is down to zero requests, the rogues stand out. This is something I've been trying to figure out how to fix. I was hoping you might be able to point me in the right direction as to who might be able to make a change so that the correct number of pending requests displays in the request template. Thank you for any help you can provide. Regards, Spintendo ᔦᔭ 04:30, 4 January 2018 (UTC)

Pretty much to the exact date. Maybe the forced break will turn out benefecial. Don't mourn or lament the outcome. And don't ask me to run for RfA right away -- I'm taking 2018 off of any responsibility beyond that of a mere editor. Maybe I let the power get to me. Maybe I am the stereotypical neckbeard manchild power-abuser that some think most admins are. I think I lost sight of what I valued in Wikipedia and got so used to wearing the admin badge that I forgot its weight. Anyhow, going to bed now, and back to regular programming Monday.

Hello Salvidrim, nice to hear from you. I understand your concerns but I'm quite new here and wanted a challenge, so I found a page to "neutralise" just to see if it was something I could get my teeth into. I realise now that this company seems to have had lots of issues so I've probably chosen too big a bonfire to walk into... However, all links were found using google. I'm pretty sure it no longer reads as an advert?
I work as an artist and am getting involved with Wikipedia editing because I'm working on a project where experience in an online community as an outsider is part of my research so please be gentle with me!

As for Peter Knight I'm just a fan. My brother introduced me to his stuff when I was considering moving to Australia many years ago (when I was more active in sound art). It bothered me for years that he didn't have a page on Wikipedia, so since I've taught myself how to code I thought I'd create his page as my first major project. Seriously, just a fan. I'm likely to make lots of pages for bands and artists who I don't think are properly represented on Wikipedia whenever I have a lag in my other jobs. Feel free to give me awkward projects to work on, I love a challenge and want to communicate with lots of people on here and keep improving my skills. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dan Petley ( talk • contribs) 22:53, 16 January 2018 (UTC)

Hello
You are claiming that KWordQuiz has been subject of a previously contested PROD.
I have checked every single revision of KWordQuiz (which aren't many). I see no such evidence.
I am not here asking for an explanation. Whatever gadget you are using to spot previous PROD is clearly giving you invalid results. This article, in its current state, has never been the subject of a previously rejected PROD.

Bonsoir Il me semble que j'ai discuté avec toi il y a quelques temps et que tu es aussi francophone. Je cherche un peu d'aide, donc je tente mas chance. Par hasard, saurais-tu ce qu'est un "light mix" album, ou un "light mix score" ? Je me demande si c'est simpelment une "bande-son ou un album ayant été légèrement remixé", ou pas.

;OUTSTANDING DRAMATIC SCORE
Dramatic scores tend to have full orchestration, somber or yearning or powerful or triumphant. Music accompanied by the spoken word/language of a modern culture or society, real or fictitious, is considered a song and therefore not eligible as music. However, original music with ancient Latin or similar vocals is eligible, because the vocals do not function as words in all practicality.
A light mix is a lighter mood, often comedy or cartoony or rock and roll.
For the music and lyrics of an original song or substantially altered song that, in its game form, has not been previously produced or published.
For the recognition of song collections that appear in a game and have a significant impact on the overall enjoyment, mood, or experience.
For outstanding achievement in editing sound to picture in a non-playable portion of a game, where the player is unable to generate sound or manipulate its timing.
For outstanding achievement in the depiction of natural or artificial sounds, particularly ambient sound that can not be manipulated.
For outstanding achievement in the programming, timing, and layering of sound elements, including the dramatic use of silence.

However, I also created Category:RCA Studio II game covers in the exact same way, and placed File:1977 Baseball Video Game Cover Art.jpg into it in the exact same way, but for some reason, the category is showing up as empty even after purging the various pages.

Hi. Just wanted to ask if you could move Unreal Tournament (video game) to Unreal Tournament (upcoming video game)? It originally was named like this, but an editor decided to remove the "upcoming" part even though the game is still under development. Per infobox documentation, we don't count pre-alpha, early access and others as proper releases, so it wouldn't be appropiate to consider its 2014 launch as official.

I have checked every single revision of KWordQuiz (which aren't many). I see no such evidence.
I am not here asking for an explanation. Whatever gadget you are using to spot previous PROD is clearly giving you invalid results. This article, in its current state, has never been the subject of a previously rejected PROD.
Best regards,

Bonsoir Il me semble que j'ai discuté avec toi il y a quelques temps et que tu es aussi francophone. Je cherche un peu d'aide, donc je tente mas chance. Par hasard, saurais-tu ce qu'est un "light mix" album, ou un "light mix score" ? Je me demande si c'est simpelment une "bande-son ou un album ayant été légèrement remixé", ou pas. Mais je cherche une traduction plus précise en français, mais je ne trouve. Très cordialement. Sorry for disturbing. regards. -- Archimëa ( talk) 22:37, 27 February 2018 (UTC)
;OUTSTANDING DRAMATIC SCORE
Dramatic scores tend to have full orchestration, somber or yearning or powerful or triumphant. Music accompanied by the spoken word/language of a modern culture or society, real or fictitious, is considered a song and therefore not eligible as music. However, original music with ancient Latin or similar vocals is eligible, because the vocals do not function as words in all practicality.
A light mix is a lighter mood, often comedy or cartoony or rock and roll.
For the music and lyrics of an original song or substantially altered song that, in its game form, has not been previously produced or published.
For the recognition of song collections that appear in a game and have a significant impact on the overall enjoyment, mood, or experience.
For outstanding achievement in editing sound to picture in a non-playable portion of a game, where the player is unable to generate sound or manipulate its timing.
For outstanding achievement in the depiction of natural or artificial sounds, particularly ambient sound that can not be manipulated.
For outstanding achievement in the programming, timing, and layering of sound elements, including the dramatic use of silence.

that edit filter managers may use to check if one or more strings are all contained in another given string.Could you explain your reasoning on this? There are some issues about this deletion and others related to it, and frankly, it comes across to me as a supervote. Mangoe ( talk) 20:41, 2 March 2018 (UTC)
Hey there, as I know you're potting about, I thought I'd run this past you. As you know, I just created Category:Nuon game covers, and placed File:Freefall 3050 AD boxart.jpg into it without any problems. However, I also created Category:RCA Studio II game covers in the exact same way, and placed File:1977 Baseball Video Game Cover Art.jpg into it in the exact same way, but for some reason, the category is showing up as empty even after purging the various pages. Any ideas? Thanks. Bertaut ( talk) 03:01, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
An automated process has detected that when you recently edited François Couturier, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Classical ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Hi. Just wanted to ask if you could move Unreal Tournament (video game) to Unreal Tournament (upcoming video game)? It originally was named like this, but an editor decided to remove the "upcoming" part even though the game is still under development. Per infobox documentation, we don't count pre-alpha, early access and others as proper releases, so it wouldn't be appropiate to consider its 2014 launch as official.
