On March 23rd 2021 you imposed a 6-month ban on user IP 192.16.96.3 for persistent vandalism, well the ban is expired, and it seems like the user is back to vandalising, I will watch the user in the near future if he/she commits more vandalism, however I am not sure on what to do if he/she does, and if I should do anything at all because of your 6-month block.

Hi Alexf! Could you restore 1950s American car culture? I'm slightly curious what happened to it, as 1950s American automobile culture never seems to have been deleted. Are there other possible missing redirects to that article? {{u| Sdkb}} talk 02:37, 30 October 2021 (UTC)

Hi.
Today I added an external link at “ Ибн Фадлан” page. But you considered it inappropriate and deleted it.
My link goes to the newest scientific study from 2021. The work is devoted to resolving the contradictions associated with the trip of Ibn Fadlan to Ancient Russia. This is directly related to the content of the Wikipedia page. This work was published in the scientific-peer-reviewed publication and confirmed by the expert opinion of the Doctor of Historical Sciences of the Belarusian Academy of Sciences.
I would like to ask you to leave this link on the page.

Hello Alexf,
I would like to draw to your attention a block you placed on an IP ( User talk:106.69.59.162) which I feel was completely unjustified. You blocked them for vandalism, when in fact, it was actually me, before I had an account, and I was actually on RC patrol. I tripped a whole bunch of filters, including one where I tried to revert userpage vandalism, which I then reported as false positive, however, if you analyse those edits, you will see that they were at the very least good faith edits, if not actually constructive. I have only recently realised that I was blocked for those edits, as the IP must've been reassigned soon afterwards, before I next tried to contribute, so I never saw the block notice at the time.
Please, remember, to assume good faith, that IPs are people too, and that it is possible for an IP to go on RC patrol.
If, after looking closely at the edits that IP / I made you still believe that block was justified, please let me know why. Thanks. Mako001 ( talk) 01:32, 25 December 2021 (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. / Johan (WMF)

Given this edit history, any objections if I convert this to a 1-year partial-block on Briard? Or we could just see what happens at the end of 31 hours. OhNoitsJamie Talk 15:30, 12 January 2022
Hi Alexf, I really appreciate your work in combatting disruption and vandalism. Without editors like you tirelessly watching out and taking action, articles would quickly degrade and the project would suffer. I really appreciate what you do here.
That said, please draw a distinction between user-warning levels when placing an initial warning at a user talk page. You recently placed this level 3 refspam warning at User talk:RadicalCopyeditor. While a warning citing WP:SELFCITE is appropriate there, this user has a total mainspace edit count of 39 at this writing. Additionally, there are discussions at their Talk page showing them coming on board with various other guidelines based on the types of mistakes new editors always make.
While placing a refspam warning is appropriate for this editor, in my opinion, placing a level 3 refspam warning as the very first warning about this topic is rarely valid for any editor, and especially not for a brand new editor. An amendment at the user's talk page would be a nice gesture. Once again, thanks for all you do here. Cheers, Mathglot ( talk) 19:50, 19 January 2022 (UTC)

Hello, Alexf,
I'm not sure why you are using revision delete on edits like this one or this one which aren't offensive edits at all. They are just trollish behavior or standard vandalism. I don't think they qualify under the Criteria for redaction unless I'm missing something here. Did they somehow violate copyright rules? I can't see it. Also, you can do all the revision deletes you need to do on a page's edits at the same time, you don't have to do them one at a time.
Any how, thanks for the truly offensive edits that you remove from public view like the ones on the Hitler family (ugh!). Liz Read! Talk! 22:28, 24 February 2022 (UTC)

Unfortunately, after I made the report I found that the vandal had already moved to another IP within the same /64 range.

It might be worth your keeping the occasional eye on Juan Feliciano. The IP and the named vandal both reappeared on 5 March 2022, 10 days after your WP:PP expired; but haven't been seen since, presumably satisfied with their handiwork. Narky Blert ( talk) 14:32, 23 March 2022 (UTC)
Hi, thanks for your help at John Tyler. However, I noticed that the protection you put in is shorter than the previous protection which expired only a short time ago. The page has been an LTA target for awhile and a protection of at least several months is probably best. Would you please take a look at the page's protection history and consider making the semi-protection longer? Thanks. Kristoffersonian ( talk) 23:02, 24 March 2022 (UTC)

Hi - so, I just reverted an IP address spamming Indian passport. Twinkle took me to their talk page to issue a warning, and I noticed that you had already warned them on 4 May about doing presumably similar stuff at Passport - so far, so mundane. Here's the bit that's confusing me: Passport wasn't edited at all on 4 May, and the edit that I reverted today appears to be the only one that the IP in question has ever made. What's going on?

Hi Alexf, I think 50.74.56.130's removals were made in good faith; I just had to revdel others' reinstatement of the content as violations of the copyright policy. If it was a justified block, I'd probably re-block Johnniecowboy for sockpuppetry or block evasion, but I think a proper measure would be removing the IP block instead.

I have reverted what is difficult not to describe as a veiled threat on my talk page from your account.
Simply calling edits you disagree with "vandalism" and leaving up a well formatted statement that you'll "contact my ISP" if I post information about an issue your colleagues are actively trying to suppress is ridiculous, aggressive, and ineffective. I am not intimidated by your threat, and I'm confused what you thought the end result could have possibly been by doing that?

I think you are being overly liberal with your use of revdel, recent examples that I just reverted: [5], [6], [7], [8], [9].

On March 23rd 2021 you imposed a 6-month ban on user IP 192.16.96.3 for persistent vandalism, well the ban is expired, and it seems like the user is back to vandalising, I will watch the user in the near future if he/she commits more vandalism, however I am not sure on what to do if he/she does, and if I should do anything at all because of your 6-month block.

Today I added an external link at “ Ибн Фадлан” page. But you considered it inappropriate and deleted it.
My link goes to the newest scientific study from 2021. The work is devoted to resolving the contradictions associated with the trip of Ibn Fadlan to Ancient Russia. This is directly related to the content of the Wikipedia page. This work was published in the scientific-peer-reviewed publication and confirmed by the expert opinion of the Doctor of Historical Sciences of the Belarusian Academy of Sciences.
I would like to ask you to leave this link on the page.

Hello Alexf,
I would like to draw to your attention a block you placed on an IP ( User talk:106.69.59.162) which I feel was completely unjustified. You blocked them for vandalism, when in fact, it was actually me, before I had an account, and I was actually on RC patrol. I tripped a whole bunch of filters, including one where I tried to revert userpage vandalism, which I then reported as false positive, however, if you analyse those edits, you will see that they were at the very least good faith edits, if not actually constructive. I have only recently realised that I was blocked for those edits, as the IP must've been reassigned soon afterwards, before I next tried to contribute, so I never saw the block notice at the time.
Please, remember, to assume good faith, that IPs are people too, and that it is possible for an IP to go on RC patrol.
If, after looking closely at the edits that IP / I made you still believe that block was justified, please let me know why. Thanks. Mako001 ( talk) 01:32, 25 December 2021 (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. / Johan (WMF)

Given this edit history, any objections if I convert this to a 1-year partial-block on Briard? Or we could just see what happens at the end of 31 hours. OhNoitsJamie Talk 15:30, 12 January 2022
Hi Alexf, I really appreciate your work in combatting disruption and vandalism. Without editors like you tirelessly watching out and taking action, articles would quickly degrade and the project would suffer. I really appreciate what you do here.
That said, please draw a distinction between user-warning levels when placing an initial warning at a user talk page. You recently placed this level 3 refspam warning at User talk:RadicalCopyeditor. While a warning citing WP:SELFCITE is appropriate there, this user has a total mainspace edit count of 39 at this writing. Additionally, there are discussions at their Talk page showing them coming on board with various other guidelines based on the types of mistakes new editors always make.
While placing a refspam warning is appropriate for this editor, in my opinion, placing a level 3 refspam warning as the very first warning about this topic is rarely valid for any editor, and especially not for a brand new editor. An amendment at the user's talk page would be a nice gesture. Once again, thanks for all you do here. Cheers, Mathglot ( talk) 19:50, 19 January 2022 (UTC)

Hello, Alexf,
I'm not sure why you are using revision delete on edits like this one or this one which aren't offensive edits at all. They are just trollish behavior or standard vandalism. I don't think they qualify under the Criteria for redaction unless I'm missing something here. Did they somehow violate copyright rules? I can't see it. Also, you can do all the revision deletes you need to do on a page's edits at the same time, you don't have to do them one at a time.
Any how, thanks for the truly offensive edits that you remove from public view like the ones on the Hitler family (ugh!). Liz Read! Talk! 22:28, 24 February 2022 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for your help at John Tyler. However, I noticed that the protection you put in is shorter than the previous protection which expired only a short time ago.

Hi - so, I just reverted an IP address spamming Indian passport. Twinkle took me to their talk page to issue a warning, and I noticed that you had already warned them on 4 May about doing presumably similar stuff at Passport - so far, so mundane. Here's the bit that's confusing me: Passport wasn't edited at all on 4 May, and the edit that I reverted today appears to be the only one that the IP in question has ever made. What's going on?

Hi Alexf, I think 50.74.56.130's removals were made in good faith; I just had to revdel others' reinstatement of the content as violations of the copyright policy. If it was a justified block, I'd probably re-block Johnniecowboy for sockpuppetry or block evasion, but I think a proper measure would be removing the IP block instead.

I have reverted what is difficult not to describe as a veiled threat on my talk page from your account.
Simply calling edits you disagree with "vandalism" and leaving up a well formatted statement that you'll "contact my ISP" if I post information about an issue your colleagues are actively trying to suppress is ridiculous, aggressive, and ineffective. I am not intimidated by your threat, and I'm confused what you thought the end result could have possibly been by doing that?
You should stop that kind of behaviour immediately. 71.65.65.144 ( talk) 21:40, 9 July 2022 (UTC)

Hi there. Did you block this account with the above username for suspicion of being a sockpuppet, as I suspect? Best, Castncoot ( talk) 07:00, 1 August 2022 (UTC)

News and updates for administrators from the past month (July 2022).
I had added a statement in the crying article, clarifying that "feminine countries" are those whose governments prioritise gender issues over others, and I added a citation to support it. Unfortunately, you have reverted this, can you please explain why? Sincerely, 49.192.44.178 ( talk) 23:56, 15 August 2022 (UTC)
Template:Editnotices/Page/List of web directories has been nominated for deletion. You are invited to comment on the discussion at the entry on the Templates for discussion page. Huggums537 ( talk) 18:00, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
It turns out that 200.68.172.38 ( talk · contribs · count) had duplicated content, likely inadvertently. 2806:2f0:8440:4a0b:c9f:17e2:1e0d:629 ( talk · contribs · count) aka 2806:2f0:8440:4a0b:f42b:30dd:9a4:739c ( talk · contribs · count) was removing the duplicated content. To me, it appeared that the bottom half the article including content, sources, and categories were being deleted. As the latter anons never ever left an edit summary as to why nor left anything on their talk page, I concluded it was vandalism. What should I do to make amends? My apology. Cheers Adakiko ( talk) 03:16, 19 August 2022 (UTC)
I think you are being overly liberal with your use of revdel, recent examples that I just reverted: [5], [6], [7], [8], [9]. Not every piece of unhelpful nonsense is "purely disruptive material", as you labelled these. They need to be reverted but are certainly not what revdel is meant for.

Just a quick correction to the prior message about the 2022 MILHIST coordinator election! I ( Hog Farm) didn't proofread the message well enough and left out a link to the election page itself in this message. The voting will occur here; sorry about the need for a second message and the inadvertent omission from the prior one. MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 17:40, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
Hello Alexf. Another admin has posted at RFPP requesting a much longer semiprotection for this page. You might want to take a look. Thanks, EdJohnston ( talk) 18:14, 17 September 2022 (UTC)

Hey you might wanna revoke the TPA of 118.149.72.172. ― Blaze Wolf TalkBlaze Wolf#6545 13:40, 28 September 2022 (UTC)
My name is Greg P Russell and you have blocked me from my own page which I don’t appreciate what so ever. I made adjustments in the bio because it doesn’t reflect the things that I would like to see and there are inaccuracies as to what was originally on my Wikipedia page. I would appreciate you unblocking me so I can edit my own page please. 2600:6C50:157F:E3F9:9D78:DD69:6B9:9F05 ( talk) 17:05, 30 September 2022 (UTC)
