Hi! Thanks for your help at Maria Björnson. There's a little problem, though: whatever you did doesn't seem to have worked! I can still see the versions of the article that should be hidden, and I'm not an admin (or of course I'd have done the revdel myself). Just to be clear: what I expect to see is that the time and date of the offending edits is struck through and greyed out, but that the editors' names are still visible in full technicolor for attribution - as for example here. Would you mind looking at it again? I'd be grateful. Justlettersandnumbers ( talk) 01:03, 7 February 2015 (UTC)
Hi WikiLeon, we would like to further explain and expand the reasons why we consider this page should not be deleted from Wikipedia. Is there a better way we can communicate with you, for example via telephone call if possible? Kindly advice your contact no. to our email address at rare.remarkable@LXIII.COM
Thank you and we look forward to hear from you soon. 202.175.98.170 ( talk) 03:25, 10 February 2015 (UTC) Yvonne

We'll be one of many sites worldwide participating in this edit-a-thon on March 7th. So join us as we help improve Wikipedia's coverage of women artists and their works!

Hi,
I forgot to put the reason as to why I deleted the previous changes in MCGI article. But if you're going to view the history of that article, many times I had reverted changes from other contributors to a simple fact that posts were just from their personal opinion with no valid source. Others tend to put exaggerated information that are unacceptable and misleading. This policy will always be enforced whenever it is needed.

Hi, There is a page name called "Kobane" ( /info/en/?search=Kobanî ) but this page name is incorrect. The official name of this town is "Ayn al-Arab" ( you can read the history here: http://www.hurriyetdailynews.com/explained-kobane-or-ayn-al-arab.aspx?PageID=238&NID=73591&NewsCatID=359 )
Can you change the name back to "Ayn al-Arab" which the page was orginally named because it was edited last year. Even the article states the following, " The Arabic name ʿAyn al-ʿArab, "Spring of the Arabs", a translation of the Ottoman Turkish name Arab Pinar, was introduced officially by the Syrian government as part of a broader Arabization effort in the 1980s"
Even Bing Maps lists it as "Ayn al-Arab".

Hi. Where can I talk about the template? The User Wrabbjr902 made some changes before the full protection. First, he puts Christian, Sandow, Hornswoggle as unassigned. They are inactive, but they are assigned to the main roster. Second, he puts Ryder, Emma and Eva Marie as NXT Wrestlers. Their profiles are in WWE.com main roster, so they are assigned to the main roster. Third, he puts Billie Kay, Blue Pants, Nia Jax and Peyton Royce as NXT talents. They haven't a profile in NXT section, so they aren't assigned to NXT. I talked with Wrabbjr902, but he didn't listen. I warned him, but he deleted my warning. -- HHH Pedrigree ( talk) 11:14, 2 September 2015 (UTC)

Hi Leon, I noticed that you blocked this user as a sockmaster last April. You also blocked several of their socks. I've come across a user that I suspect may be related to these accounts. Unfortunately, the technical data on the accounts you blocked (I'm a CheckUser) is stale. That said, I imagine you are more familiar with the behavioral characteristics of the master/socks than I am. Thus, I wondered if you'd mind taking a look at "my" account and letting me know what you think. It is Crossleague. Thanks very much.-- Bbb23 ( talk) 14:24, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
{{
sockpuppeteer|blocked|checked=yes}}
or {{
sock|Labgown|confirmed}}
unless you are a CheckUser. For the master you should use {{
sockmaster|blocked}}
, and for a puppet either {{
sock|Labgown|blocked}}
or {{
sock|Labgown|proven}}
. "Proven" is used when it's very obvious, whereas "blocked" when it's less so.--

Hi. I'm wondering why you upped the block for User:WillShowU to indefinite with ability to edit talk page revoked, while they were already in a fixed time block and did not appear to be abusing their talk page?

First of all, I didn't know about the conversation. However, it's just a discussion with two users. Becky Lynch is a gimmick, Alexa Bliss is a gimmick too. Three wrestlers appeared as La Luchadora, something that a lot of wrestlers made in the past like The Calgary Kid, Mr. America, Suicide, Doink the Clown, The Spider Lady, Los Conwuistadores, The Black Scorpion... -- HHH Pedrigree ( talk) 08:16, 17 April 2017 (UTC)

Hi! Thanks for your help at Maria Björnson. There's a little problem, though: whatever you did doesn't seem to have worked! I can still see the versions of the article that should be hidden, and I'm not an admin (or of course I'd have done the revdel myself). Just to be clear: what I expect to see is that the time and date of the offending edits is struck through and greyed out, but that the editors' names are still visible in full technicolor for attribution - as for example here. Would you mind looking at it again? I'd be grateful. Justlettersandnumbers ( talk) 01:03, 7 February 2015 (UTC)
Hi WikiLeon, we would like to further explain and expand the reasons why we consider this page should not be deleted from Wikipedia. Is there a better way we can communicate with you, for example via telephone call if possible? Kindly advice your contact no. to our email address at rare.remarkable@LXIII.COM

First, we have an ArtAndFeminism edit-a-thon, which will take place at the Kadist Art Foundation from 12 noon to 6pm on Saturday, March 7. We'll be one of many sites worldwide participating in this edit-a-thon on March 7th. So join us as we help improve Wikipedia's coverage of women artists and their works! Second, we will be celebrating International Women's Day with the International Women's Day edit-a-thon on Sunday, March 8 from 1pm to 5pm at the Wikimedia Foundation.

Hi,
I forgot to put the reason as to why I deleted the previous changes in MCGI article. But if you're going to view the history of that article, many times I had reverted changes from other contributors to a simple fact that posts were just from their personal opinion with no valid source. Others tend to put exaggerated information that are unacceptable and misleading. This policy will always be enforced whenever it is needed.

Hi, There is a page name called "Kobane" ( /info/en/?search=Kobanî ) but this page name is incorrect. The official name of this town is "Ayn al-Arab" ( you can read the history here: http://www.hurriyetdailynews.com/explained-kobane-or-ayn-al-arab.aspx?PageID=238&NID=73591&NewsCatID=359 )
Can you change the name back to "Ayn al-Arab" which the page was orginally named because it was edited last year. Even the article states the following, " The Arabic name ʿAyn al-ʿArab, "Spring of the Arabs", a translation of the Ottoman Turkish name Arab Pinar, was introduced officially by the Syrian government as part of a broader Arabization effort in the 1980s"
Even Bing Maps lists it as "Ayn al-Arab".

However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful.

Hi. Where can I talk about the template? The User Wrabbjr902 made some changes before the full protection. First, he puts Christian, Sandow, Hornswoggle as unassigned. They are inactive, but they are assigned to the main roster. Second, he puts Ryder, Emma and Eva Marie as NXT Wrestlers. Their profiles are in WWE.com main roster, so they are assigned to the main roster. Third, he puts Billie Kay, Blue Pants, Nia Jax and Peyton Royce as NXT talents. They haven't a profile in NXT section, so they aren't assigned to NXT. I talked with Wrabbjr902, but he didn't listen. I warned him, but he deleted my warning. -- HHH Pedrigree ( talk) 11:14, 2 September 2015 (UTC)

Hi Leon, I noticed that you blocked this user as a sockmaster last April. You also blocked several of their socks. I've come across a user that I suspect may be related to these accounts. Unfortunately, the technical data on the accounts you blocked (I'm a CheckUser) is stale. That said, I imagine you are more familiar with the behavioral characteristics of the master/socks than I am. Thus, I wondered if you'd mind taking a look at "my" account and letting me know what you think. It is Crossleague. Thanks very much.-- Bbb23 ( talk) 14:24, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
{{
sockpuppeteer|blocked|checked=yes}}
or {{
sock|Labgown|confirmed}}
unless you are a CheckUser. For the master you should use {{
sockmaster|blocked}}
, and for a puppet either {{
sock|Labgown|blocked}}
or {{
sock|Labgown|proven}}
. "Proven" is used when it's very obvious, whereas "blocked" when it's less so.--

Hi. I'm wondering why you upped the block for User:WillShowU to indefinite with ability to edit talk page revoked, while they were already in a fixed time block and did not appear to be abusing their talk page? I would also dispute that they are not here to build the encyclopedia - they're not very good at it, certainly, but they do seem to be trying to make it better in their own way.

The last Wednesday evening of every month, wiki enthusiasts gather at Bay Area WikiSalon to collaborate, mingle, and learn about new projects and ideas. This month we are meeting at Noisebridge makerspace/hackerspace in the Mission near 16th Street BART (temporary change of venue). The good news is this means that you can bring spontaneous guests if you forget to RSVP!
We allow time for informal conversation and working on articles. Newcomers and experienced wiki users are encouraged to attend. Free Wi-Fi is available so bring your editing devices. We will have beverages (including beer and wine) plus light snacks.
If possible, please RSVP as it helps us figure out how much food and drink to bring in. For further details and to RSVP, please see: Wikipedia:Bay Area WikiSalon, March 2017
See you soon! Co-coordinators

First of all, I didn't know about the conversation. However, it's just a discussion with two users. Becky Lynch is a gimmick, Alexa Bliss is a gimmick too. Three wrestlers appeared as La Luchadora, something that a lot of wrestlers made in the past like The Calgary Kid, Mr. America, Suicide, Doink the Clown, The Spider Lady, Los Conwuistadores, The Black Scorpion... -- HHH Pedrigree ( talk) 08:16, 17 April 2017 (UTC)
