Hi, forgive me for being a busybody, but a couple of things about WP:CBAN. First, the ban is usually recorded at WP:Editing restrictions. Second, although not required, you can place a tag on the editor's userpage. A non-administrator did that, and I reverted because it's your call and because non-admins shouldn't be tagging other editor's userpages anyway.-- Bbb23 ( talk) 21:56, 22 July 2019 (UTC)
Hi, I believe that Mzmadmike shouldn't have been placed in Editing Restrictions, because it states that "editors who are subject to site bans are listed at Category:Banned Wikipedia users instead". Feel free to ignore this if I'm incorrect, that's just how I understand it and I wanted to bring it up to you. Best, -- Rockstone talk to me! 01:55, 23 July 2019 (UTC)

Since the introduction of temporary user rights, it is becoming more usual to accord the New Page Reviewer right on a probationary period of 3 to 6 months in the first instance. This avoids rights removal for inactivity at a later stage and enables a review of their work before according the right on a permanent basis.

Hi there,
I see in the history of the article that you AC-ed it today for a week, but the padlock doesn't seem to have appeared - could you confirm that you added the {{}} bit of it? Or that there isn't another issue at play?
It may need EC-protection if another AC-permissioned editor vandalises it.

Please remember to check Special:WhatLinksHere when moving a file without a redirect and update any links pointing to that file. In the case of File:2019-10-07DanFeehan.jpg, a redirect should have been left behind per WP:FILEREDIRECT and WP:PMRC. While you are the uploader and can change the file name to whatever you would like, "Overly long name" would generally fall under WP:FMNN unless the name was seriously approaching the 240 byte limit. -- AntiCompositeNumber ( talk) 11:21, 16 October 2019 (UTC)

Happy to continue the discussion on the Statue of Leif Erikson (Boston), but in the meantime, just wanted to thank you for your work expanding the article. Just FYI, if you're interested in public art/sculpture in Boston in general, I am currently using the project page Wikipedia:WikiProject Sculpture/Boston to expand List of public art in Boston and create articles about public artworks in the city. I'll be creating a similar list for Cambridge as well. I doing this work ahead and of the upcoming WikiConference and hope to continue creating many more pages! Thanks again for your help. --- Another Believer ( Talk) 16:02, 25 October 2019 (UTC)
Hi there,
I see you made a change to my edit rights based on The SignPost article. I gave SmallBones the citation to the AN Closure Board of the ANI Review of all of these same allegations, but he did not use it. SoWhy, an uninvolved admin summarizing the admin consensus said Feinberg’s story was written by someone who “has no idea how Wikipedia works” and that I had not violated any Wikipedia policies or Terms of Use. [1]. Swarm, an admin who was involved in the discussion, did his own summary of the ANI review: "Eight admins have replied to the thread. All eight appear to be on the same page that the article is exaggerated sensationalism, and that the editor has not actually has done anything wrong. It has been suggested that the user should probably be more concise, but we haven't seen anything to support the notion that they're relentlessly argumentative or engage in "bludgeoning" behavior." [2] The ANI review included the PayTalk and bludgeoning accusations that Smallbones is bringing up again. Dozens of editors looked at every contribution I ever made and found no violation. My entire consulting practice is based on ethical behavior and strictly following Wikipedia policies.
Farrow says in the end notes to his book that the accusations against me are taken from the Huffington Post story. I don't see why changing my status is justified just because the press repeats the same accusations and finds Wikipedia's COI policies objectionable (that there is a sanctioned process for paid conflicted editors to propose changes and have them reviewed by independent Wikipedia editors).
Cheers, Ed BC1278 ( talk) 19:02, 31 October 2019 (UTC)
I appreciate the advice from other admins. I have not examined BC1278's history in detail, much less taken a position on any disputes, so I think I remain uninvolved. I simply don't think an account for paid editing, which is mostly confined to talk pages, needs the extended edit right. I don't think what I did should really make much difference.

Hello Jonathunder,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Calvin Brown for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!

Hey, figured I'd follow up here since I'm going off-topic.
Did you wind up doing the whole Freedom Trail? I took a lot of pics at the Granary Burying Ground, Bunker Hill Monument, and the Skinny House, but just a few elsewhere. I feel like there are a lot of opportunities at Faneuil Hall, etc. if only I had a better lens with me or the light were more cooperative. :) I lived in Boston for a while, but never actually got around to most of the touristy stuff, so it was nice to come back (frigid though it was).
Also just curious if there's a story behind your choice of license? I'm not used to seeing that on new files, so just curious (I'm not someone who's particularly passionate about choice of license FWIW). — Rhododendrites talk \\ 17:28, 20 November 2019 (UTC)

reasonably construed.
Would it be better for me to back the deletion nomination (which is seemingly lacking) of the current file in question and re-upload it with a free license to remediate the "fair use" issue causing the other user to disruptively edit the article? It is a far higher quality image and without anyone else in frame, far more fitting for the article, in my opinion. ☧Catholic Laitinen ☧ ( talk) 08:31, 7 January 2020 (UTC)

Hi, Jonathunder! If you recall, several months ago you offered feedback to my requested updates to History at Mayo Clinic. Based on your thoughts and those of another editor, I updated my request.

Hi Jonathunder, yesterday while you were making this photo I was right around the corner at HiFi records to see Steve McClellan.

Hi Jonathunder. I respectfully disagree with your restoring "mental retardation". Yes, articles are written for nonspecialists, but that doesn't mean excessive weight needs to be placed on outdated terminology. See euphemism treadmill. Mental retardation redirects to the article, and the terminology is explained in much detail in the article. Since this is a medical article, and with WP:BRD in mind, I ask that you revert your edit and discuss on talk page where medical editors can discuss. Thanks.

Jonathunder - thank you for your message and guidance regarding my edits to Louis DeJoy. I am an independant logistics consultant that follows logistics organizations extensively; an industry he was in for many years. That is how I know of Mr. DeJoy. Over the past few days, my Louis DeJoy google alert has exploded my inbox, which is how I learned of Mr. DeJoy's appointment for Postmaster General. When I found his Wikipedia page, I was disappointed that the content appeared to be mostly negative leaning which prompted me to provide edits.
Since the first paragraph only spoke to Mr. DeJoy's major donations to the President and to the Republican Party, which some readers may view as negative, I felt it important to also highlight his philanthropic endevours through his family foundation which I would think is also relevant. Additionally, since there was no photo of Mr. DeJoy, I contacted his office to get the photo which I uploaded. That is the same photo they provided for the Business Journal article you reference and is owned by Mr. DeJoy, not the business journal. They advised me that the same photo was recently provided to the postal service for their use. I can provide a contact in Mr. DeJoy's office if needed to validate.
I am not familiar with the process for requesting that my edits be approved, and would appreciate your guidance or acceptance based on the above.

Greetings! I recently made an edit in the article Leif Erikson Day, mentioning a reference to the holiday made on SpongeBob SquarePants. You reverted this edit citing WP:POPCULTURE which, on a first thought, made sense to me as well. However, despite its status as a holiday for quite some time, you have to admit that Leif Erikson Day is virtually unknown to non-Nordic Americans, and completely unknown to non-Americans. This is why I think that the reference made on SpongeBob (which has been on air for two decades and has a gigantic national and international audience), having been mentioned on several media outlets ( National Geographic, The Philadelphia Inquirer and AM New York Retro), merits some sort of acknowledgement in this article. Otherwise, what stops us from, say, labeling the section about Groundhog Day (film) in the article Groundhog Day as "silly Hollywood cruft" and removing it? I believe this would near excessive deletionism. Therefore, I invite you to reconsider your opinion. Happy editing.

Hi Jonathunder, Is there a chance I can get your assistance in review and ultimately getting an article out of Draft? Workers building the Minnesota State Capitol was flagged and deleted for copyright violations. However, the copy in question came from an articles in MNOpedia and obtained under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported license. However, the exact same content (word for word) was also published in MinnPost by the same author Randy Croce. The MNOpedia article was published on June 19, 2019. The MinnPost article was published on June 24, 2019, five days later. However, I could not convince the either the person who flagged it for deletion due to copyright violation nor the person who deleted it a few days later and locked me out of the content. There were some other copyright issues but relatively minor and I have corrected them. I have also added addition content and sources (also obtained under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported license in MNOpedia). I need help from someone that will actually do due diligence and look into the issues rather than just hit the delete button because Earwig Copyvio Detector bot returns a high copyright violation rating. If you feel there are issues, I will cheerly correct/work on them. Myotus ( talk) 23:19, 10 February 2021 (UTC)

I have been trying to estimate the number of new GFDL-only files on all wikis and I noticed that you uploaded some files on August 1 per Special:ListFiles/Jonathunder.

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)

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is Admin has removed my account's extended confirmed user rights. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Righanred ( talk • contribs)
An editor has identified a potential problem with the redirect The Andrew formerly known as Prince and has thus listed it for discussion.

You are involved in a recently filed request for arbitration. Please review the request at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case#Jonathunder's use of admin tools in content disputes and, if you wish to do so, enter your statement and any other material you wish to submit to the Arbitration Committee. As threaded discussion is not permitted on most arbitration pages, please ensure that you make all comments in your own section only. Additionally, the guide to arbitration and the Arbitration Committee's procedures may be of use.

Several motions have been proposed by the arbitrators at the case request Jonathunder's use of admin tools in content disputes. Your comments are welcome in your section. You can view the motions here. For the Arbitration Committee, Dreamy Jazz talk to me | my contributions 23:49, 23 February 2022 (UTC)
The Arbitration Committee has resolved by motion that:
The "Jonathunder" request for arbitration is accepted. This case will be opened but suspended for a period of six months. [note 1]
If Jonathunder ( talk · contribs) should return to active editing on the English Wikipedia during this time and request that this case be resumed, the Arbitration Committee shall unsuspend the case by motion and it will proceed through the normal arbitration process. Such a request may be made by email to arbcom-enwikimedia.org or at the clerks' noticeboard. Jonathunder is temporarily desysopped for the duration of the case.
If such a request is not made within six months of this motion or if Jonathunder resigns his administrative tools, this case shall be automatically closed, and Jonathunder shall be permanently desysopped. If tools are resigned or removed, in the circumstances described above, Jonathunder may regain the administrative tools at any time only via a successful request for adminship.

Thank you for uploading File:WelcomeAshburnGA.jpg.
This image is a derivative work, containing an "image within an image". Examples of such images would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a screenshot of a computer game or movie. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original image must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work.
While the image description page states the source and copyright status of the derivative work, it only names the creator of the original work without specifying the status of their copyright over the work.
Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the original image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
If you have uploaded other derivative works, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. Thanks again for your cooperation. — Ирука 13 20:20, 20 August 2023 (UTC)

Hi, forgive me for being a busybody, but a couple of things about WP:CBAN. First, the ban is usually recorded at WP:Editing restrictions. Second, although not required, you can place a tag on the editor's userpage. A non-administrator did that, and I reverted because it's your call and because non-admins shouldn't be tagging other editor's userpages anyway.-- Bbb23 ( talk) 21:56, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

Since the introduction of temporary user rights, it is becoming more usual to accord the New Page Reviewer right on a probationary period of 3 to 6 months in the first instance. This avoids rights removal for inactivity at a later stage and enables a review of their work before according the right on a permanent basis.

Hi there,
I see you made a change to my edit rights based on The SignPost article. I gave SmallBones the citation to the AN Closure Board of the ANI Review of all of these same allegations, but he did not use it. SoWhy, an uninvolved admin summarizing the admin consensus said Feinberg’s story was written by someone who “has no idea how Wikipedia works” and that I had not violated any Wikipedia policies or Terms of Use. [1]. Swarm, an admin who was involved in the discussion, did his own summary of the ANI review: "Eight admins have replied to the thread. All eight appear to be on the same page that the article is exaggerated sensationalism, and that the editor has not actually has done anything wrong. It has been suggested that the user should probably be more concise, but we haven't seen anything to support the notion that they're relentlessly argumentative or engage in "bludgeoning" behavior." [2] The ANI review included the PayTalk and bludgeoning accusations that Smallbones is bringing up again. Dozens of editors looked at every contribution I ever made and found no violation. My entire consulting practice is based on ethical behavior and strictly following Wikipedia policies.
Farrow says in the end notes to his book that the accusations against me are taken from the Huffington Post story. I don't see why changing my status is justified just because the press repeats the same accusations and finds Wikipedia's COI policies objectionable (that there is a sanctioned process for paid conflicted editors to propose changes and have them reviewed by independent Wikipedia editors).
Cheers, Ed BC1278 ( talk) 19:02, 31 October 2019 (UTC)
I appreciate the advice from other admins. I have not examined BC1278's history in detail, much less taken a position on any disputes, so I think I remain uninvolved. I simply don't think an account for paid editing, which is mostly confined to talk pages, needs the extended edit right. I don't think what I did should really make much difference.

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Calvin Brown for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.

Hey, figured I'd follow up here since I'm going off-topic.
Did you wind up doing the whole Freedom Trail? I took a lot of pics at the Granary Burying Ground, Bunker Hill Monument, and the Skinny House, but just a few elsewhere. I feel like there are a lot of opportunities at Faneuil Hall, etc. if only I had a better lens with me or the light were more cooperative. :) I lived in Boston for a while, but never actually got around to most of the touristy stuff, so it was nice to come back (frigid though it was).
Also just curious if there's a story behind your choice of license? I'm not used to seeing that on new files, so just curious (I'm not someone who's particularly passionate about choice of license FWIW). — Rhododendrites talk \\ 17:28, 20 November 2019 (UTC)

the entire set of articles whose topic relates to the Arab-Israeli conflict, broadly interpretedrather than
reasonably construed.
Would it be better for me to back the deletion nomination (which is seemingly lacking) of the current file in question and re-upload it with a free license to remediate the "fair use" issue causing the other user to disruptively edit the article? It is a far higher quality image and without anyone else in frame, far more fitting for the article, in my opinion. ☧Catholic Laitinen ☧ ( talk) 08:31, 7 January 2020 (UTC)

Hi Jonathunder. I respectfully disagree with your restoring "mental retardation". Yes, articles are written for nonspecialists, but that doesn't mean excessive weight needs to be placed on outdated terminology. See euphemism treadmill. Mental retardation redirects to the article, and the terminology is explained in much detail in the article. Since this is a medical article, and with WP:BRD in mind, I ask that you revert your edit and discuss on talk page where medical editors can discuss. Thanks.

Jonathunder - thank you for your message and guidance regarding my edits to Louis DeJoy. I am an independant logistics consultant that follows logistics organizations extensively; an industry he was in for many years. That is how I know of Mr. DeJoy. Over the past few days, my Louis DeJoy google alert has exploded my inbox, which is how I learned of Mr. DeJoy's appointment for Postmaster General. When I found his Wikipedia page, I was disappointed that the content appeared to be mostly negative leaning which prompted me to provide edits.
Since the first paragraph only spoke to Mr. DeJoy's major donations to the President and to the Republican Party, which some readers may view as negative, I felt it important to also highlight his philanthropic endevours through his family foundation which I would think is also relevant. Additionally, since there was no photo of Mr. DeJoy, I contacted his office to get the photo which I uploaded. That is the same photo they provided for the Business Journal article you reference and is owned by Mr. DeJoy, not the business journal. They advised me that the same photo was recently provided to the postal service for their use. I can provide a contact in Mr. DeJoy's office if needed to validate.
I am not familiar with the process for requesting that my edits be approved, and would appreciate your guidance or acceptance based on the above.

Thanks for uploading File:ElmerLeeAndersonBW.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. 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. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. -- B-bot ( talk) 02:29, 9 June 2020 (UTC)

Greetings! I recently made an edit in the article Leif Erikson Day, mentioning a reference to the holiday made on SpongeBob SquarePants. You reverted this edit citing WP:POPCULTURE which, on a first thought, made sense to me as well. However, despite its status as a holiday for quite some time, you have to admit that Leif Erikson Day is virtually unknown to non-Nordic Americans, and completely unknown to non-Americans. This is why I think that the reference made on SpongeBob (which has been on air for two decades and has a gigantic national and international audience), having been mentioned on several media outlets ( National Geographic, The Philadelphia Inquirer and AM New York Retro), merits some sort of acknowledgement in this article. Otherwise, what stops us from, say, labeling the section about Groundhog Day (film) in the article Groundhog Day as "silly Hollywood cruft" and removing it? I believe this would near excessive deletionism. Therefore, I invite you to reconsider your opinion. Happy editing.

Hi Jonathunder, Is there a chance I can get your assistance in review and ultimately getting an article out of Draft? Workers building the Minnesota State Capitol was flagged and deleted for copyright violations. However, the copy in question came from an articles in MNOpedia and obtained under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported license. However, the exact same content (word for word) was also published in MinnPost by the same author Randy Croce. The MNOpedia article was published on June 19, 2019. The MinnPost article was published on June 24, 2019, five days later. However, I could not convince the either the person who flagged it for deletion due to copyright violation nor the person who deleted it a few days later and locked me out of the content. There were some other copyright issues but relatively minor and I have corrected them. I have also added addition content and sources (also obtained under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported license in MNOpedia). I need help from someone that will actually do due diligence and look into the issues rather than just hit the delete button because Earwig Copyvio Detector bot returns a high copyright violation rating. If you feel there are issues, I will cheerly correct/work on them. Myotus ( talk) 23:19, 10 February 2021 (UTC)

Hi! As you know I proposed to restrict the use of GFDL and the proposal passed so per Wikipedia:Image_use_policy#GNU_Free_Documentation_License GFDL is no longer accepted if "The content was licensed on or after 1 August 2021". I have been trying to estimate the number of new GFDL-only files on all wikis and I noticed that you uploaded some files on August 1 per Special:ListFiles/Jonathunder. I guess you missed/forgot the change of policy or perhaps it is just the timezones. I hope you will be able to find another free license you can use. -- MGA73 ( talk) 13:21, 2 August 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)

The Arbitration Committee has resolved by motion that:
The "Jonathunder" request for arbitration is accepted. This case will be opened but suspended for a period of six months. [note 1]
If Jonathunder ( talk · contribs) should return to active editing on the English Wikipedia during this time and request that this case be resumed, the Arbitration Committee shall unsuspend the case by motion and it will proceed through the normal arbitration process. Such a request may be made by email to arbcom-enwikimedia.org or at the clerks' noticeboard. Jonathunder is temporarily desysopped for the duration of the case.
If such a request is not made within six months of this motion or if Jonathunder resigns his administrative tools, this case shall be automatically closed, and Jonathunder shall be permanently desysopped. If tools are resigned or removed, in the circumstances described above, Jonathunder may regain the administrative tools at any time only via a successful request for adminship.

Thank you for uploading File:WelcomeAshburnGA.jpg.
This image is a derivative work, containing an "image within an image". Examples of such images would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a screenshot of a computer game or movie. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original image must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work.
While the image description page states the source and copyright status of the derivative work, it only names the creator of the original work without specifying the status of their copyright over the work.
Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the original image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
If you have uploaded other derivative works, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. Thanks again for your cooperation. — Ирука 13 20:20, 20 August 2023 (UTC)
