Hi sorry to disturb you on your wikibreak. I just want to ask a question about styles.css file (sorry I'm still a learner). I'm an admin on niawp (the only one who knows how to edit the main page) and the community agreed that we simplify the Main Page maintenance by being as close as possible to enwp while keeping it appealing for the eyes of the target readers.
I already spring cleaned the niawp Main Page, but I see that you put the enwp styles.css file in the project namespace (Wikipedia:Main Page/styles.css). How to do that? When I created such styles.css file in the project namespace, it's not recognised as css styles but as a normal page. Thank you. slaia talk 11:33, 2 January 2024 (UTC)

Hi Izno, I wanted to thank you once more, this time publicly, for all of your contributions to the Arbitration Committee over the past two years. While we only directly overlapped for one of those years, I have seen, while getting up to speed, how much work you've put in as a whole in areas that are key to keeping committee business going but are invisible particularly to the community, which include anywhere from appeals to email management to documentation. Your presence on the committee will be sorely missed, and I hope that after a well-deserved break, you may consider coming back. :-) Maxim ( talk) 13:29, 2 January 2024 (UTC) |

Hi, I know you've worked on Template:Article alerts box, but isn't the template supposed to show article alerts as a listing? I've checked the backlinks and it's just showing the line that they'll be generated shortly. I don't know how to fix this, could you help? -- Funandtrvl ( talk) 18:51, 7 January 2024 (UTC)

Do you have a plan for {{ Memory types/styles.css}}? I poked through the talk page and the template's history, but I did not find any mention of it or implementation of it. If it is not needed, you could put {{ Db-g7}} on it (I think this works on CSS pages, but I'm not sure), or I could take it to TFD. – Jonesey95 ( talk) 22:24, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
Hi Izno, you closed this SPI earlier. Can you please merge this case to WP:Sockpuppet investigations/Lithuaniaball2? The days-of-the-year vandalism in Lithuanian is as WP:DUCKy as it gets to WP:LTA/LB2. Prodraxis ( talk) 17:54, 28 February 2024 (UTC)
Hey,
Reaching out to you here as I'm cognisant of the word limits at ARCA. Are there specific diffs in the filing I made at AE that you think are out of scope of ARBATC, as it was written in 2017? It seems to me as though you're implying that the filing I made is partially out of scope, but I can't quite figure out why you think that? Sideswipe9th ( talk) 04:01, 2 March 2024 (UTC)
the specific dispute spawned at AN(I?) as a result, isn't in the set of AT/MOS pagesThere were two disputes at AN recently. The first was about the capitalisation of NFL draft article titles, and a rather contentious RfC. The second was about Wikipedia:Manual of Style extended FAQ. When selecting diffs, I deliberately excluded the former, as I felt that was out of scope per your clarification at Tamzin's AE report. The second though I did select diffs from, as I felt that was a discussion on the MOS and its content, as at the time it was linked to on MOS:FAQ having only been removed on 22 February after the AN discussion started.

Hi @ Izno. Hope this message finds you well. I write to you with respect to the Indefinite blockage set to User:Friday musa's account on the English Wikipedia. I am appealing not just on his behalf but on the behalf of the Tyap Wikimedians User Group to unblock his account as this posseses a big setback to our operations as an affiliate. Please review your stance on his account status and remove the indefinite block set on it. Thanks and warm regards, Kambai Akau ( talk) 13:21, 6 March 2024 (UTC)
Please tell us in your own words, in a new request what Wikipedia's license is, what copyright is, and describe how to properly use copyrighted content on Wikipedia.in the decline of the previous appeal. You should encourage Friday musa to appeal again. I have already said my piece. 3) Whether your affiliate is in good or bad standing is not my concern. If they are to edit English Wikipedia, the users who have a membership in it must understand our policies and guidelines, whether or not they are a member of any other organization that does work in the Wikimedia movement.
Hello Izno, I've come here after noticing something here. Could you please inform me who is managing the sockpuppet accounts here? Additionally, has the issue of sockpuppetry within group two been resolved? I was about to submit a report regarding a user involved, but I'm unsure about the identity of the sockpuppet manager in group one and whether the sockpuppetry in group two has been confirmed. Regards. Imperial [AFCND] 19:02, 10 March 2024 (UTC)

Hey there! This is to let you know that phase I of the 2024 requests for adminship (RfA) review is now no longer accepting new proposals. Lots of proposals remain open for discussion, and the current round of review looks to be on a good track towards making significant progress towards improving RfA's structure and environment. I'd like to give my heartfelt thanks to everyone who has given us their idea for change to make RfA better, and the same to everyone who has given the necessary feedback to improve those ideas. The following proposals remain open for discussion:
To read proposals that were closed as unsuccessful, please see Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review/Phase I/Closed proposals. You are cordially invited once again to participate in the open discussions; when phase I ends, phase II will review the outcomes of trial proposals and refine the implementation details of other proposals. Another notification will be sent out when this phase begins, likely with the first successful close of a major proposal. Happy editing! theleekycauldron ( talk • she/her), via:

Hello Izno, request you to respond to my question of 6th March at User talk:Zuck28#March 2024. I pinged you there again on 8th March. Otherwise, you may want to discuss here. Jay 💬 06:49, 17 March 2024 (UTC)
Question for you - you didn't happen to look for other accounts when you handled this SPI a few days ago, did you? There's another account that has overlapping time periods of editing but not too much interaction [5]. Another editor poked me on my talk page, and honestly I'm not totally convinced this other account is a sock but enough in the back of my head I thought I'd ask you here. If you didn't, I'm going to keep an eye and see if another SB2007 sock pokes up there head (and from history, they should) on the off chance they are getting fancy enough to split editing articles across multiple accounts. Thanks! Ravensfire ( talk) 13:44, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
I reverted your changes over on Wikipedia:Anatomy of a template as they broke the documentation there. Perhaps were you doing a mass edit of some sort? I'd check if any other pages were broken in that edit. Ergzay ( talk) 11:24, 28 March 2024 (UTC)

Hi Izno. I noticed that you were the admin who blocked User:LaCienega Bouldevardez last year for being a MariaJaydHicky sockpuppet. I believe we have another MJH sock with Kepin' it FUNKY. That editor added a genre to the first article LaCienega Bouldevardez edited ( Christina Milian (album)) [6], performed a revert on that article [7], and immediately after registering has come out adding genres/reverting editors disputing those genres on the article for Beyoncé's new album: [8], [9], [10].

Hi, can you get Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Srimonbanik2007 sorted please? It's a WP:DUCK case but Wikipedia:Sockpuppet Investigations is jammed with cases so it isn't being attended to.
