:{{non-admin comment}} Hi! Just to clarify, [[WP:DISAMBIG|disambiguation pages]] (like [[Segregation]]) are usually to provide an overview of the different definitions of a term. While you certainly meant well by adding more detailed information (and I wouldn't necessarily call it vandalism), these pages are more navigation aids than content pages. All in all, I don't think your edits to that page were the most disruptive. Other edits like [[Special:Diff/1240246776|this one]] or [[Special:Diff/1240424232|that one]] might be more relevant, and it could be good to not only say that your edits were not constructive, but explain ''why'' they are not – which will help show the reviewing administrators that you understand your mistakes and won't make them again.{{pb}}Likewise, do you have specific contributions you want to make? Your wording is still pretty vague ({{tq|did not contribute positively}}, {{tq|making constructive, policy-compliant edits}}, {{tq|only make useful contributions}}), and highlighting more precise examples could be helpful for your unblock request.

== Learning to make vectors ==

Hello! As you might or might not know I have made a few vectors; but I feel that they could be better. I was wondering what software, and procedures that you use to create vectors. Because I feel I am not efficient on them.

With Regards! [[User:Netjerudua|Netjerudua]] ([[User talk:Netjerudua|talk]]) 03:52, 20 December 2024 (UTC)

:Hello [[User:Netjerudua|Netjerudua]], I know that many users that make vector images use a piece of software called [[Inkscape]] however I can not use it for reasons I do not want to go in to here so instead I use a website called [[Photopea]] but the most impotent thing is that when you download and upload images you do it in a format called [[SVG]] because it is more high quality and it saves layers so it is easier to work with. other website I have used in the past include; [[Pixlr]] (before it became all [[AI]]) but it does not allow you to upload [[svg|SVG's]] (I believe they have there own format that works similor but is not accepted on most websites including Wikipedia), And the [[Scratch (programming language)|Scratch]] image editor which works surprisingly well and is easy to learn but does lack in feature and can only handle small files.
:another thing to note is that there are 2 main styles of egyptian god vector on wikipedia: 1 made by [[c:User:Eternal Space|Eternal Space]], and one made by [[User:Jeff Dahl|Jeff Dahl]], the [[User:Jeff Dahl|Jeff Dahl]] style is often uploaded in [[svg|SVG's]] but you have also uploaded some images particularly recently in the [[c:User:Eternal Space|Eternal Space]] style and all of those are [[PNG|PNG's]].

== [[Ibi (Nomarch)]] ==
Many thanks for the changes in the article above. However, i am not very happy with them, indeed I avoided the word ''normarch'' for some reason. It is a Greek word and it is not so useful to describe a governor of the Old Kingdom, so the word ''governor'' was used on purpose with just a link to ''normarch'' (see here Jessica Tomkins, The Misnomer of Nomarchs ZÄS 2018; 145(1): 95–104 ([https://www.academia.edu/35422636/The_Misnomer_of_Nomarchs_%CE%9F%E1%BC%B1_%CE%BD%CE%BF%CE%BC%CE%AC%CF%81%CF%87%CE%B1%CE%B9_and_Provincial_Administrators_of_the_Old_Middle_Kingdoms]) best wishes [[User:Udimu|Udimu]] ([[User talk:Udimu|talk]]) 05:42, 30 January 2025 (UTC)

:If you would like to change it back, I will not stop you. however I would prefer nomarch because it is most often used, it may be a later invention never used in old kingdom Egypt, but so are a lot of words used when ancient Egypt is discussed for example; the word pharaoh was never used to describe the king until Thutmose III at the earliest, but we have no problem calling earlier kings pharaohs. even calling it Egypt is inaccurate because the native name transliterates to Kemet. [[User:PharaohCrab|PharaohCrab]] ([[User talk:PharaohCrab#top|talk]]) 13:25, 30 January 2025 (UTC)
::the original text had a link and mentioned nomarch, but the title is Greek, a proper translation of the Egyptian title would be ''overlord of province XX''. I will think about it, but i am not comfortable with slightly outdated research, if there is newer research out. [[User:Udimu|Udimu]] ([[User talk:Udimu|talk]]) 15:05, 30 January 2025 (UTC)

== Fake image ==

Hello. Please refrain from adding this fake image into the [[Kek (mythology)]] article. On 17 November 2024 you changed the existing image with a fake image without giving any explanation for doing that. Please do nont re-add this fake image. Thank you.

:this images is not "fake", it is based on greco-Roman period depictions of the Ogdoad, where all 4 male member have frog heads, while the other male members also have other depictions, Kek does not and thus were using the frog head [[User:PharaohCrab|PharaohCrab]] ([[User talk:PharaohCrab#top|talk]]) 18:23, 5 February 2025 (UTC)

'''{{RfA tally|Barkeep49}}; Scheduled to end 14:19, 7 March 2025 (UTC)'''

====Nomination====
{{Admin|Barkeep49}} – Hi. I'm [[User:Barkeep49|Barkeep49]] and I'm running because I think it's important that we get some new crats from time to time as long as we keep the role. I think I bring the qualities the community wants in a crat while also representing someone who got active - 2018 for me - with Wikipedia at a very different time than most of our existing crats. I hope the community will agree that I'm a good match for the role.

On the traditional qualifications side, I have experience closing discussions, with the most prominent recent example being the [[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review/Phase II/Administrator elections|15 closes]] during the review of Administrator elections. I'm proud of the fact that the aspect of the close which received the most commentary was not on the content of any of the closes but on my choice to leave uncollapsed the non-snow/moot discussions. This work included findings of consensus that relied on considering the complete discussion, and not just counting the bolded !votes. This kind of careful reading to understand what, if any, consensus was reached is something that I hope the community will find useful in a new crat. My skill as a closer has also been shown by my record of never having a close overturned, including after challenges at [[WP:DRV|deletion review]] of [[WP:AfDs|AfDs]] I've closed (a small number of times new sources were presented some time after the fact which allowed for a recreation of an article whose AfD had been closed as delete by me which I think is great but not a reflection of my close).

Besides my experience as a closer, I also have experience with RfA. I have nominated a number of candidates - including being the most frequent nominator over the 2021-22 time period. I think this perspective will be useful to add to the crat corp. I also believe I have shown as both an administrator and arbitrator the importance I place on being communicative with community members and being receptive to feedback and I would continue this if selected as a crat.

I have a deep well of respect of the (lowercase c) conservative nature of being a crat. After I received some recent encouragement to consider running, I checked in with a few people I trusted to give me honest feedback about whether or not I was uncontroversial enough to be a crat. If selected as a crat respecting community consensus and expectations will be foremost on my mind while performing my duties. There have also been times when the community has hoped that crats would evolve their role and I would be eager to try and meet any changing expectations the community might have for crats.

Thanks for considering me and I hope I have done enough to earn your support. Best, [[User:Barkeep49|Barkeep49]] ([[User talk:Barkeep49|talk]]) 23:13, 27 February 2025 (UTC)

====Questions for the candidate====
Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia as a bureaucrat. You may wish to answer the following optional questions to provide guidance for participants:
:'''1.''' Have you read the discussions on when to promote and not promote? What do you understand the criteria for promotion to be?
::'''A:''' I have read dozens of RfAs and crat chats (including the RfAs of any that ended with cratchats going back to 2014) and have also read [[Wikipedia:Bureaucrats#Promotions and RfX closures]]. My understanding is that crats are to promote candidates to adminship when there is a consensus among the community to do so and to not promote if there isn't. Consensus to promote is typically found by looking at the support percentage with the community normally expecting RfAs that finish above 75% support to pass; conversely those that finish with under 65% are will normally not have consensus. In between (or in the very unusual cases when there is some reason to doubt the raw support %) is where crats must use their skills in determining consensus.

:'''2.''' How would you deal with contentious nominations where a decision to promote or not promote might be criticized?
::'''A:''' Given my experience as an arbitrator I am used to having to make decisions that are going to upset or disappoint some people no matter what I decide to do. Historically before making a decision of importance, I will read something multiple times (for instance while closing the Admin election RfCs I read every discussion at least twice, on two separate occasions). When appropriate I also believe in asking questions before making a decision - which I could see happening in discussions about some requests for re-adminship. Then I take some effort to carefully explain my thinking to the community and to be responsive to questions/feedback offered during and after the decision.

:'''3.''' Wikipedians expect bureaucrats to adhere to high standards of fairness, knowledge of policy and the ability to engage others in the community. Why do you feel you meet those standards?
::'''A:''' I try to live these things and so I hope what I have written above helps to demonstrate how I meet those standards. Beyond what I've already written about my experience as an arbitrator and administrator with fairness and engagement with the community, I have long felt that if I had one Wikipedia "superpower" it was "know what policies and guidelines are out there and have a willingness to check them before saying something." This is something I would obviously bring to my work as a crat as well. I also would just note my commitment to staying current with and being a part of the community. Since being a crat has a higher level of trust required, like with other high trust positions (which for me include Checkuser and Oversighter), I could foresee a time when I gave up being a crat even while keeping adminship, if I found my time/commitment/whatever to Wikipedia was lessening from what it is today.

'''Optional question from [[User:Ganesha811|Ganesha811]]'''
:'''4.''' What do you view as the meaning of "consensus" on Wikipedia generally, and at RfA specifically? In a polarized discussion with roughly equal numbers of editors on either side, is consensus ever possible?
::'''A:''' First I appreciate the skill in smuggling three questions into two relatively compact sentences. I think the description on the policy page is a good meaning of it on Wikipedia in general, Consensus {{tqq|...involves an effort to address editors' legitimate concerns through a process of compromise while following Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.}} At RfA the focus of consensus is on the question "is there trust in this community member or not"? I discuss this in a bit more detail in my answer to Q1. And yes I think in polarized discussions with roughly equal numbers of editors it's possible there is a consensus. Most of the times in that scenario the outcome is going to be no consensus, and the value the closer has to offer is in the summary of the salient points, and with noting possible questions/steps that might find consensus in the future. But sometimes through a careful reading of the discussion, especially when considering the appropriate elements of policies an guidelines, you can find a consensus through appropriate weighting of !votes and/or the discovery that there are points of agreement that aren't immeadiately apparent through a simple headcount of the bolded !votes.

:'''6.''' Let me start by saying that while we have disagreed on occasion I have immense respect for your judgement, and in a vacuum I would support without hesitation. But: I've put on record quite often my hesitations over concentrating power and responsibility in too few individuals. You aren't currently an Arb, but you are a CU/OS and a U4C member, and if this was November instead of February I would be among several editors suggesting you run for ArbCom again. How do you see these various roles interacting, especially if you stand for another term on the committee? When you stepped down from ArbCom, you noted your view that no individual should serve on U4C and ArbCom simultaneously - is that still how you feel? Best, [[User:Vanamonde93|Vanamonde93]] ([[User talk:Vanamonde93|talk]]) 17:30, 28 February 2025 (UTC)
::'''A:''' I have previously expressed my own discomfort with having too many ArbCrats, including at the RfB that had been the most recent before this one, while also acknowledging that this seems to be a minority view among our community. When I stepped off ArbCom I did so knowing that the odds were high that I would run again at some point in the future. A couple of weeks ago there were some U4C meetings, during which those of us who had been arbs discussed our experiences. Those discussions made me realize how much more content I am with Wikipedia post-ArbCom and how many of the elements that I enjoyed about ArbCom I get to do on the U4C without some of the same stressors. So that, combined with the recent encouragement I received to consider running for crat, has made me rethink running again for ArbCom, such that I no longer see the odds as high. It was an absolute honor to serve the community as an Arb, and I think I did a lot of good in my time, but my current plan is to run for re-election to the U4C and to hopefully serve the enwiki community as a crat.

:'''8.''' You used to be a successful & prolific nominator at RFA, and facilitated reform efforts like [[WP:RFA2021]]. Though since at least early 2024[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?oldid=1214009282&diff=1214018710] you've said you had stepped away from RFA and AFAIK have not nominated candidates or participated in discussions since. Why the step away?
::'''A:''' I've had multiple people I respect express concern to me at various points that I will burn out and by-and-large I can appreciate why they express concern but am not too worried. But that's because the time that I came closest to burning out and leaving Wikipedia altogether had nothing to do with the areas they express concern about but was instead RfA related. When I decided not to leave, I did decide to make a break with RfA related things for a time. I'm at a point now where I can do RfA related things - closing the admin elections RfCs, !vote in an RfA when I know the candidate well, run for crat (and hopefully do crat related stuff) - without risk of burning out. Perhaps one day I will feel ready to nominate someone again as well, as I am proud of the work I did both nominating and with RFA2021 (which was an overall neutral to fail but do think it helped setup the far more impactful RFA2024). But I'm also committed enough to Wikipedia that I don't want my passion in one area to put at risk the work I do in other areas.

:'''9.''' How would you have closed this RFA.[[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/WikipedianProlific]].Note it was extended for 48 hours at [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship/WikipedianProlific&diff=prev&oldid=155103672 (62/19/7)]
::'''A:''' Note: as I stated above I read important/complex discussions I'm closing at least twice on two separate times, but for this RfB question I have only read the discussion once. By 2025 standards, I don't think the extension would have been appropriate given current consensus about what 76% support means and so I think it would have been appropriate for an individual crat to close with a consensus to promote. Let's say for the sake of argument that it hadn't been extended but instead closed after 7 days at 68/23/8, the final tally. This would have been an appropriate range for a cratchat and if I were the first to see it I would have initiated one. My view is that the closer we are to 75% the more likely there should be a consensus to promote and the closer to 65% the less likely there should be a consensus to promote. In this case I take seriously the points the closer made about neutrals adding extra weight to the concerns of the oppose and for me somewhere around 70%, or perhaps just below, I wouldn't find enough of a consensus to promte given the discussion that was had. However, with the way the RfA closed rather than with hypotheticals (at least in 2025) I would find a consensus to promote.

:'''10.''' This question is about the role of bureaucrats. Do bureaucrats have any role other than closing Requests for Adminship, which is a formality unless the vote count is in the marginal range, and deciding the close of marginal Requests for Adminship?
::'''A:''' They also have responsibilities around BFRA and in re-granting sysop to some people.

:'''11.''' Should the role of bureaucrats be either expanded, because they currently have only a minor role, or eliminated?
::'''A:''' I think there's a great argument for eliminating them, but it would be a pretty big step for enwiki to decide to outsource something to the Stewards. So I would recommend the community have a thoughtful discussion about that. And if there is no consensus, or consensus against abolishing the crats, then I think it would be appropriate to consider if there was any expanded role that made sense.

This is an easy support. {{pb}} Separately, while I agree with {{U|RoySmith}}'s feeling that bureaucrats may not be needed forever, as long as we ''do'' have bureaucrats, we should make sure those crats are representative of the community in an ongoing way. The majority of active sysops would make good bureaucrats, and I'd be glad to support many of their RfBs. As I've [[User:L235/RfB should not be a big deal|previously written almost three years ago]]: {{tqb|1=I intend to support most RfBs from established administrators in good standing who:{{bulleted list|1= are engaged with the community;|2= have a demonstrated track record in assessing consensus; and |3= commit to following consensus decisions even when they personally disagree with them.}}{{pb}} I think any administrator who meets these criteria would be a "net positive" addition to the crat corps. Making someone a bureaucrat is a fairly low stakes question compared with e.g. making someone a sysop:{{bulleted list|1= In practice, becoming an administrator confers a great deal of influence and discretion (mediating disputes, closing discussions, blocking people, hearing appeals), in addition to a lot of social capital, all at once. The damage that a single sysop can do is immense, ranging from driving folks off the project through intimidation or subtle harassment (accidentally or on purpose) to using their technical access maliciously (BEANS type stuff). This is why as a community we scrutinize RfAs fairly closely.|2=Becoming a crat does not confer much additional "influence" over being a sysop. It's pretty hard to abuse the crat tools, and if a crat did abuse their crat tools, it'd be a lot easier to spot than abusing the sysop tools. The only real power that crats have is to participate in crat chats, which are analogous to being on a closing panel for an RfC, and I think I would trust basically every established admin who meets the criteria above to do so. }}{{pb}}But we do still need new crats, because there are about 20 bureaucrats right now, only five of whom were elected in the last eight years. The pool of people who judge community consensus should include more new blood than that.

#'''Support''' When I saw on my watchlist that there was an RfB open, my initial thought was 'do we really need more crats?', and I guess I haven't quite answered that question internally. Sure it's an important role, but I haven't noticed a backlog in the fairly limited areas that crats need to take action, and I expect that the existing body of editors working in that role have it in hand. Anyway, I clicked through to see who was requesting that particular bit, and saw that it was Barkeep49. Full disclosure: Barkeep49 took me through NPP school before either of us went through RfA, and he was one of my noms in my own RfA. That might give me something of a bias, but it has also given me opportunity to watch him operate first hand and up close. He is diligent, unswervingly polite, incredibly generous with his time, thorough, reflective, and has a deep understanding of the letter, spirit, and day-to-day de facto operation of our PAGs. I can think of no finer candidate for the crat bit. In my mind, that renders my initial question moot - our current crat corps seems to be handling the task admirably, but I believe that it would be strengthened by Barkeep49's presence.

#'''Support''', unreservedly. {{u|Perfect4th}} (in support #4) has already quoted me quite aptly. I've long been a big fan of Barkeep49, and he would make a fine crat. Like others, I'm not completely sure that we need one more crat, but I also see no downside to having one more. As for the arguments that we should avoid concentration of power, two things occur to me. One is: meh. The "power" that crats have isn't exactly that big, in the overall scheme of things. And the second is that this depends on the person. I trust Barkeep49 enough to be unworried about abuse of whatever power there is, and in fact, I would support him as a crat running again for ArbCom. --[[User:Tryptofish|Tryptofish]] ([[User talk:Tryptofish|talk]]) 20:07, 28 February 2025 (UTC)

#I'll reiterate what I said at Barkeep's RfA five years ago: "I have interacted with Barkeep when they have reviewed many of my GA nominations. And each time they have been civil and patient, ready to find alternative solutions for problems that may came up: for instance, when they failed one of my nominations, they posted to multiple talk pages to ask for other reviewers, and in my view this is a sign of good communication. I also think their contributions focus well on both content creation (e.g. their featured list and several GA's) and admin work (e.g. XFD)." I know that this is not at all relevant to whether they're qualified to be a bureaucrat, but in short, I trust that they know what they're doing. Whether the role of bureaucrats is redundant is an issue that I sympathize with, but also an issue that should be discussed separately. – [[User:Epicgenius|Epicgenius]] ([[User talk:Epicgenius|talk]]) 23:46, 28 February 2025 (UTC)

I do worry about your capacity, especially with your more unique roles within U4C, but I trust you will be mindful of your (volunteer) priorities and benefit from learning the different ropes English Wikipedia. To those who say that Bureaucrats are not needed, this is the wrong venue to litigate that, but given most of us here are not bureaucrats (pun intended) about the right forum let's discuss this. Bureaucrats are most prominently visible during RfA 'crat discussions, but behind the scenes crats handle (de)sysop requests both voluntary and involuntary. With the recent admin elections, we will need more bureaucrats on hand to handle the individual cases whether due to temporary breaks, deceased editors, misconduct and more. Could I imagine supporting consolidating Bureaucrats and Arbitrations clerks or other high level roles that function very differently today, but generally all require similar levels of trust and decorum from the community not to screw up permissions or misappropriate admins?

Nearly all the time bureaucrat activity is uncontroversial and we rarely struggle that none would be available.

# '''Neutral'''. I believe that Barkeep49 will make a fine bureaucrat; my position is largely related to the underlying permission which he seeks. I land here because I genuinely believe we already have too many bureaucrats for the tiny amount of work they do, and I see no benefit to the project to expand their ranks. The candidate hasn't written anything significant about their experience with relation to bot approvals, which is one of two key roles of bureaucrats in 2025; I think it would be useful for him to take the time to write something specifically about this task.

'''{{RfA tally|Worm That Turned 2}}; Scheduled to end 09:47, 18 November 2024 (UTC)'''

'''Monitors''': 

====Nomination====
{{user|Worm That Turned}} – A little over 13 years ago, three years after I began editing, I [[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Worm That Turned|nominated]] myself for adminship, and was successful. Since that time, I have filled a number of roles on the encyclopaedia, largely behind the scenes, most prominently as a member of the Arbitration Committee for 8 of those 13 years, but also oversight, checkuser & bureaucrat. I strongly believe that the administrator toolbox should not be a lifetime appointment, and had always intended to reconfirm at some point, and circumstances have come together to make that possible here.

Wikipedia is a volunteer role, and real life should always come first. So, regarding my current circumstances - I recognised that my time for Wikipedia was significantly limited by my work. My role has unexpectedly changed this year, and I now have time again. As such, I have decided to stand for re-election to the Arbitration Committee, and fulfil my commitment that I would reconfirm my adminship if I wanted the tools back, despite being within [[WP:RESYSOP]] limits. However you choose to !vote on this reconfirmation RfA, I would appreciate any comments you would like to make, which I will take on board and refer back to in the future.

Now that that's covered, I'd like to talk about some of my highlights on Wikipedia. From a content perspective, I have written 2 Featured and 30 Good articles, slightly over half were about women in history, a group of people who are underrepresented on Wikipedia. From a community perspective, I spent years running the historic [[WP:ADOPT|adopt a user]] program, personally adopting 35 users. From a meta perspective, I have strong opinions on adminship and have spent years helping reform the process of becoming and leaving being an administrator. On the Arbitration Committee, I've made tough decisions, drafted cases, managed community crises and pushed for major, essential reform. Throughout, I've tried to keep Wikipedians at the heart of everything I do.

I'm not, by any means, perfect. I'd love to hear your questions, here, on my talk page or by email if you'd like a protracted conversation. I have never edited for pay, though I have received swag as part of my volunteering over the past 15 years. I have a few alternate accounts, all currently dormant, all easy to identify as me and all declared on my user page.

:''Candidate, please indicate acceptance of the nomination here:'' I do accept. [[User:Worm That Turned|''Worm'']]TT([[User talk:Worm That Turned|talk]]) 09:46, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

====Questions for the candidate====
Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia as an administrator. Please answer these questions to provide guidance for participants:
:'''1.''' Why are you interested in becoming an administrator?
::'''A:''' As much as I believe that non-administrators should be able to join the Arbitration Committee, I am also pragmatically aware how useful the administrator toolset is when sitting on the committee, not least by being able to see deleted edits in particular. [[User:Worm That Turned|''Worm'']]TT([[User talk:Worm That Turned|talk]]) 09:46, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
:'''2.''' What are your best contributions to Wikipedia, and why?
::'''A:''' I've covered some of my highlights above, and I talk about what I'm proud of on my user page, but for this question, I'd like to dive into my two featured articles. [[Doom Bar]], a topic which I was inspired to write about based on a beer mat (I was drinking Doom Bar before it was a national beer!) - I really learned about research and investigation in creating the article. [[Sabrina Sidney]] on the other hand, was a topic that simply didn't seem real, and was fascinating to read about. I encourage everyone to read the article. I am not a talented writer, my background is mathematics, so I have found the featured article process very stressful - but worth it.{{br}} The edit I am most proud of, however, is [https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Sue_Gardner&diff=prev&oldid=5488086 this one]. It was a time that our WMF relationship was significantly different, budgets were king and pressure needed to be applied. Although most of the work was done behind the scenes, and I was only a part of it - I believe that edit was important in moving [[WP:Child Protection]] from community to WMF responsibility. [[User:Worm That Turned|''Worm'']]TT([[User talk:Worm That Turned|talk]]) 09:46, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
:'''3.''' Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or have other users caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and how will you deal with it in the future?
::'''A:''' I have. I've had to make tough decision on the committee, been the face of those tough decision. I've taken issue with the behaviour of administrators on and off the committee and dealt with it directly. I've managed the stress by taking regular breaks, identifying my personal signs of burn out and stepping back before then, and encouraging feedback from other community members to see if I'm acting out of line. [[User:Worm That Turned|''Worm'']]TT([[User talk:Worm That Turned|talk]]) 09:46, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

You may ask optional questions below. There is a [[Wikipedia:2015_administrator_election_reform/Phase_II/RfC#B2:_Limit_the_total_number_of_questions_that_may_be_asked_by_any_individual_editor|limit]] of '''two questions''' per editor. Multi-part questions are disallowed, but you are allowed to ask follow-up questions related to previous questions.

'''Optional question from [[Special:Contributions/78.28.44.127|an IP user]]'''
:'''4.''' Some administrators believe that it is a good practice to "procedurally" decline "stale" unblock requests based solely on the fact that no admin cared to attend to them for an extended period of time. What are your thoughts on that subject? Do you recall ever procedurally declining a stale unblock request?
::'''A:''' I have not, and would not procedurally declined a stale unblock request simply based time, unless other factors were involved. Personally, I do not believe unblock requests should be procedurally declined unless the request no longer has relevance, e.g. the block is no longer in force, or a subsequent community discussion has required the block to stay in place. {{br}} On the flip side, however, if an unblock request has been hanging around a while and has not persuaded any administrator to unblock - it is likely that the request does not meet the requirements for unblocking. I can therefore understand the logic of administrators who do follow the "procedural" or "light touch" closure of these requests. The problem is that without giving feedback to the request, the blocked individual has less chance to be properly unblocked and therefore re-integrate with the community. Those few helpful words in declining an unblock request could make a big difference long term. [[User:Worm That Turned|''Worm'']]TT([[User talk:Worm That Turned|talk]]) 14:29, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
'''Optional question from [[User:GTrang|GTrang]]'''
:'''5.''' Why are you doing a full reconfirmation RfA instead of making a resysop request at [[WP:BN]]?
::'''A:''' Thank you for asking this [[User:GTrang|GTrang]], as I do appreciate I'm taking the community's time up with this request. I've been around on Wikipedia for a long time, and spent a lot of time working around [[WP:RfA]]. Many years ago, two administrators decided to run through a reconfirmation RfA, [[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/HJ Mitchell 3|HJ Mitchell]] and [[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/SarekOfVulcan 2|SarekOfVulcan]]. To this day, I wish more administrators did that, and always intended to do so around my 10 year adminship anniversary - however I found myself "busy" with duties that I didn't want to risk. {{br}} In January, when I stood down as an admin, I committed to [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=1194567520 a reconfirmation]. I genuinely expected to be unavailable for 2-5 years at the time so I would either come back sooner and run a reconfirmation RfA, or later and need to run an RfA anyway. I'm not one to back down on a commitment, so here I am. {{br}} My strongest hope for this RfA is to be given feedback, be it areas I can improve or things I'm doing well. Unfortunately, the anonymous voting at SecurePoll during an election doesn't offer that. [[User:Worm That Turned|''Worm'']]TT([[User talk:Worm That Turned|talk]]) 15:55, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
'''Optional question from [[User:GreenMeansGo|GreenMeansGo]]'''
:'''6.''' Mayo or Miracle Whip? This will decide my !vote.
::'''A:''' To the best of my knowledge, I have never tasted Miracle Whip. I did not know of Miracle Whip until this question. Mayonnaise has its place, especially in some sandwiches - it pairs very well with Bacon in a [[BLT]] (one of my most controversial Good Articles), and is essential in [[egg mayonnaise]], but I'm not an [[Mustrum Ridcully|autocondimentor]], and it's rare that mayonnaise would be my condiment of choice. Therefore, I believe my answer is "neither". [[User:Worm That Turned|''Worm'']]TT([[User talk:Worm That Turned|talk]]) 16:04, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
'''Optional question from [[User:Martinp|Martinp]]'''
:'''7.''' Welcome back. While technically you resigned as admin 10 months ago, you've been generally less active (as admin and editor) for 1-2 years. Nothing at all wrong with that, but as you become more active again, what are some of the biggest changes you see in norms, processes, or culture at EN:WP that have occurred during your "break"? These may be changes you will adapt to, or ones you will strive to change, that's up to you.
::'''A:''' This question, and Dianaa's below, are excellent and exactly what we should be asking in this sort of scenario. The biggest changes I've seen is around Admin Elections and Recall - less about what they mean for the community, as we've had ideas like them mooted for years, but more that these long term perennial proposals have actually happened. That shows a marked shift in the community in the past year - is it numbers of people watching, apathy or willingness to try something new? I'm trying work that out myself at the moment.{{br}} I've seen that conflict that has been apparent in the wider world has reflected itself on Wikipedia - there's no surprise there, but it's happening, and does need to be watched - interestingly it does mean that previous battlegrounds are being re-visited. I see that there's technical changes that I'm happy about, things like a simple new Speedy category for C4, or the Global vanish button, something that is very important to me because vanishing was ''the'' reason I became a 'crat. {{br}} There are outside factors that are worrying, such as the Asian News International fiasco. Indeed, the encyclopedia is always changing - and I will endeavour to change with it. [[User:Worm That Turned|''Worm'']]TT([[User talk:Worm That Turned|talk]]) 19:47, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
'''Optional question from [[User:Diannaa|Diannaa]]'''
:'''8.''' I see you haven't edited much in the last couple years. Could you please describe what efforts you have made to make sure your knowledge of admin work is up to date? Thanks.
::'''A:''' Up until September 2023, I was about as active as I ever was, maybe not making edits, but I was responding to emails and reading my watchlist on a day to day basis. I stepped down from Arbcom because I couldn't keep up at that pace. It's difficult to evidence that, of course. I quickly realised that without the information coming to me, I needed to go looking for it, and that's where I didn't have time - leading to me stepping down from all administrative roles. {{br}} To get back to the swing of things, I've been reading. A lot. The Administrators Newsletter is my go-to starting point, but also the Signpost, noticeboard archives. I've discussed "what I've missed" with a few colleagues, finding out key points. Some I knew about beforehand, some I didn't. Some I could have predicted, some not. No matter what, I've been reading - bringing myself up to speed on topics is something I got pretty good at on Arbcom over the years. [[User:Worm That Turned|''Worm'']]TT([[User talk:Worm That Turned|talk]]) 19:47, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
'''Optional question from [[User:Andrew Davidson|Andrew D.]]'''
:'''9.''' The article [[Even a worm will turn]] gives some history of the phrase, which goes back to Shakespeare and beyond. Please explain or elaborate on your reasons for choosing it as your account name. [[user:Andrew Davidson|Andrew]]🐉([[user talk:Andrew Davidson|talk]]) 20:07, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
::'''A:'''Back before the turn of the millenium, I took Latin at school - our teacher was, shall we say, of a different era. He delighted in using phrases such as "My dog is a wonderful beast" and "Right you little worms!", which my fellow students and I found very amusing. When it came to me choosing my first free email address, not wanting digits at the end, I chose "worm that turned", a moniker I've kept to this day. In the years since, I've found the references to [[The Worm That Turned]] (never watched Two Ronnies in my childhood - and it certainly feels wrong in today's society) and Shakespeare (Henry VI wasn't among my repertoire) as well as others. [[User:Worm That Turned|''Worm'']]TT([[User talk:Worm That Turned|talk]]) 10:04, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
'''Optional question from [[User:Hawkeye7|Hawkeye7]]'''
:'''10.''' Do you intend to seek reconfirmation as a bureaucrat?
::'''A:''' I do not. I am not certain whether I will pick up the 'crat hat again, as I do understand that many in the community feel the need for separation of powers and there are scenerios where I must choose between the roles. Equally, the amount of work I've done at RfA meant that I do feel drawn to the role, and happy to help out there, attending crat chats and technical measures as and when. In truth, I was far more active as a crat (relative to the amount of crat work) than I ever was as an administrator. Were I to decide to pick the 'crat hat back up though, I would not like to spend more of the community's good will on another one of these reconfirmations this decade. [[User:Worm That Turned|''Worm'']]TT([[User talk:Worm That Turned|talk]]) 10:04, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
'''Optional questions from [[User:Fathoms Below|Fathoms Below]]'''
:'''11.''' We have lost five bureaucrats this year, including yourself and your RfB nominee {{noping|SilkTork}}. Although we have not had a 'crat chat for over a year, and are experimenting with the new Administrator Elections procedure that does not require 'crat chats, we still had a close call at [[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/The Night Watch|my RfA]] early in the year. Have you considered involving yourself in the vetting of potential candidates for RfB? Why or why not?
::'''A:''' As you mention, I've nominated for 'crat in the past, and I would do so again - if anyone is interested and wants to discuss, do contact me. Unfortuantely, the 'crat role has rather become defunct on Wikipedia, flicking a switch for adminship or bot (yes, I'm trivialising it, there's a lot of weighing of consensus too, but the userright is limited), yet has one of the highest bars to access. That makes candidates few and far between. [[User:Worm That Turned|''Worm'']]TT([[User talk:Worm That Turned|talk]]) 10:04, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
:'''12.''' Do you intend to involve yourself in some form of content creation (article creation, DYK, GA, FAC) if you pass RfA? Or would it detract from your limited time that can be spent on Wikipedia?
::'''A:''' I do hope to do a little content creation on the side. I'm unlikely to go through FAC, simply because I feel like a fraud there as I don't believe my contributions are up to that standard, however article creation / expansion and maybe even GA is not beyond the realms of possibility, during my free time. I've spotted a few interesting topics over the past year that I do want to expand.
'''Optional question from [[User:McYeee|McYeee]]'''
:'''13.''' Would you be willing to change your signature from [[User:Worm That Turned|''Worm'']]TT([[User talk:Worm That Turned|talk]]) to [[User:Worm That Turned|''Worm'']]TT([[User talk:Worm That Turned|talk]]) so that it renders legibly in dark mode without changing how it looks in light mode?
::'''A:''' I used to have a border around my username for contrast, but dropped it due to the length of my signature. I've added a blurred background for dark mode, which may help. I would have gone straight for your suggestion @[[User:McYeee|McYeee]] but for the discussion I spotted below. Happy to discuss my signature further on my userpage, I'm definitely happy with technical changes to it, but would prefer to keep the length to a minimum [[User:Worm That Turned|''Worm'']]TT([[User talk:Worm That Turned|talk]]) 10:04, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
'''Optional question from [[User:BarntToust|BarntToust]]'''
:'''14.''' Usually Admins I've seen around involve themselves in keeping watch over at least one [[WP:CTOP|contentious topic]], whether it be [[Politics of the United States]], or [[Israeli–Palestinian conflict]] or [[Grand Theft Auto]], or whatever else. Do you plan to focus your prospective Sysop powers onto the subject of any of these, or any other contentious topic?
::'''A:''' I've generally stayed away from admining contentious topics as I have spent so much time sitting on the committee, implementing and updating them. As such, I'd rather not risk [[WP:INVOLVE]]ment in the areas - plus, in addition, the topics don't particularly interest me. I'm afraid I can't say I expect to spend my time at any contentious topics. [[User:Worm That Turned|''Worm'']]TT([[User talk:Worm That Turned|talk]]) 14:00, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
'''Very, very, very optional question from [[User:Tryptofish|Tryptofish]]'''
:'''15.''' Please confirm that you are not now, nor ever have been, inside of RFK Jr's brain.

'''Optional question from [[User:Bobby Cohn|Bobby Cohn]]'''
:'''16.''' You mention in response to the first oppose that your use of the tools would only extend to your need during the arbitration committee. Should you not be elected, or after your term at Arb Com, would you maintain the tools or give up the mop again?
::'''A:''' Should I not be elected, I have every intention of carrying on as a normal Wikipedia editor, and expect I'd hold on to the tools - picking up new areas where they may be useful. Similarly at the end of my term - if I'm not burned out. If I expect to step away from Wikipedia, I will freely give up the tools - I do not like having additional user-rights on a site where I am not actively using them.

#:::I'm going to disagree with you there @[[User:Barkeep49|Barkeep49]]. I'm not the best use case, as this RfA is showing, however - one of our biggest problems on Wikipedia is editor retention, and that's the reason that the time is such a precious commodity. The most important factor in volunteer retention is motivation. We as a community are not good at encouraging motivation. If administrators felt welcomed to do reconfirmation RfAs, then not only would they get feedback for areas that they may be failing, but also they would get positive feedback on areas that they are not. No one is "required" to participate in this RfA, so I struggle to agree that it is "expensive". [[User:Worm That Turned|''Worm'']]TT([[User talk:Worm That Turned|talk]]) 19:29, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
#::::ArbCom is the closest anything comes to a requirement and even that still have [[WP:VOLUNTEER]] elements. However, of the ways you could get feedback this casts by far the widest net - appear as a watchlist notice and as a central notice. And so you are, by asking for feedback this way, asking for lots of editors to spend time giving you feedback. I love your concept of admins getting feedback and will think about my own method because I agree with you that it would be good to a have a culture that encouraged admins to seek this kind of feedback before we get ot ARBCOM/RECALL territory. But yes this remains a way to ask a lot of editors to spend time - many of whom aren't offering any meaningful feedback other than they're happy to see you (which, as you know, I am) and so I continue to question if this practice became (as you want) normal whether editors spending time here as opposed to other wiki pursuits helps make us the best encyclopedia we can.

=====Oppose=====
#Agreed with the ''Neutral'' commenter: this is a waste of community time. Worse, I'm especially put off by the Q1 answer: the tools are sought to make ArbCom re-election easier and to make presumed resumption of ArbCom activities easier, but this is not in any way a rationale pertaining to how this user having administrative tools would be an administrative benefit to the community, just a rationale for why they'd be of benefit to the candidate. If anyone who had not already been an admin and Arb came here and asked for admin tools specifically so they could run more easily for ArbCom and have an easier time as an Arb if elected, they'd be laughed right out of the room. Me posting this as an ''oppose'' is perhaps somewhat symbolic, since the [[WP:RESYSOP]] time limit at [[WP:BN]] has not expired. I started drafting it as another ''Neutral''. But the more I think about it, the worse this seems – both as to personal-benefit focus and as to firing up a community-time-consumptive process for no sensible reason. So I'm going with ''Oppose'' on general principles. This is just too weird to me. How much attention and showing of approval does one person need? If WTT thinks their ArbCom re-election chances are high, then just run for re-election and get the tools back by RESYSOP request if successful. Being elected would already be a demonstration of community trust, making the point of this RfA entirely moot. If WTT doesn't think their re-election chances are high, then the rationale for this RfA is again moot, since no other rationale has been offered but ArbCom. There is no scenario in which this RfA served a useful function. — [[User:SMcCandlish|'''SMcCandlish''']] [[User talk:SMcCandlish|☏]] [[Special:Contributions/SMcCandlish|¢]] 😼 01:52, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
#:I've addressed my opinion of the "waste of time", the point of reconfirmation and the benefits of feedback, so won't cover that further, but your second "worse" point, I do agree with. I don't believe I need the tools - my use cases for them are few and far between, reading deleted content while on the committee is the most significant, my next most common use was history merges on a complete article re-write away from mainspace. I've made a few blocks and protections, but they're few and far between, not more than one or two a year. Simply, if I were not standing for Arbcom, I wouldn't be asking for the tools - hence my answer to question 1.
#:Regarding an "easier" time at the election, I hadn't considered that. I ran successfully without an admin hat on in 2017, similar to this year, and only one term history. The userright may sway a few voters, but I would hope my track record of ~8 years on arbcom would sway more.

#::Thanks for getting back to me. The user-right will definitely sway voters. In my own two candidacies for ArbCom (in which I was the never-an-admin who got closest to being elected) a consistent sticking point for commenters making it clear they would oppose was that I lacked the admin bit, and I was repeatedly pressured to run for RfA despite having no other particular interest in admin tools and activities. — [[User:SMcCandlish|'''SMcCandlish''']] [[User talk:SMcCandlish|☏]] [[Special:Contributions/SMcCandlish|¢]] 😼 21:42, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
#This is a highly trustworthy candidate, and I don't think this is a "waste of time" either as I highly respect those submitting to reconfirmation. However, I find the candidate has not sufficiently demonstrate an actual need of the tools, which is the first thing we tend to look at during RfAs. The candidate states at [[WP:ACE2024/C]] that their primary aim on the Arbitration Committee is to "strive to be a voice of reason on there" and that they've "never been a high-volume workload arb" and don't "expect to be one this time either". To me, although I think that would be a real asset to the Arbitration Committee, this means that the candidate will rarely need to read deleted content themselves. Of course, the tools will still be a bit handy, so I would welcome them reclaiming the tools at [[WP:BN]].

And I won't call this RFA useless since I respect you are following through on a promise you made is submitting to it. However, given the strength of your voice here, you missed an opportunity to drive some sort of beneficial discussion with this whole exercise. Example: you could have highlighted your strengths and wiki-accomplishments, but also reflected on any weaknesses or what you've learned to do differently during your time here (for the benefit of others). You could have taken my Q7 and replied more forcefully, what concerns you, what those shifts indicate, etc. You could have taken a position on the Asian News situation, not just mentioning it obliquely until Q17. I'm not criticizing you for not doing any one of these things specifically, just wishing you could have done something like that, harnessing your stature for this discussion to be more than a 121,000 byte affirmation of your trustworthiness. That all said, welcome back. [[User:Martinp|Martinp]] ([[User talk:Martinp|talk]]) 22:22, 15 November 2024 (UTC)

#I agree that the optics here kinda leave a bad taste in my mouth. I don't doubt that this user will use the tools properly so I know not to oppose, but the immediately jumping into a re-rfa after leaving for a while gives me pause. Also I'm familiar enough with RfA to know opposers and neutralers get badgered, so I'll say now not to bother doing so as I do not intend to follow up on this RfA.

=====General comments=====
*This discussion is [[WP:SNOW]]ing - time for an early close? I don't see the point in stretching it out the full 7 days, particularly with a lot of "Support - unnecessary" !votes. [[User:FOARP|FOARP]] ([[User talk:FOARP|talk]]) 21:29, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
*:We don't (successfully) snow close normal RFAs, so I don't know why (or how) we'd do it here. At 128/0/1, I'd say anyone who finds this RFA a distraction or unnecessary can safely unwatchlist it, or not participate. I suppose the point of stretching this out is that, maybe, someone will eventually give Dave the feedback he desires, beyond the "WTT rules" he's been getting so far. [[User:Floquenbeam|Floquenbeam]] ([[User talk:Floquenbeam|talk]]) 21:38, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
*::If we start snow closing RfAs, pages like [[WP:RFX300]] would waste away. [[User:Girth Summit|Girth Summit]][[User talk:Girth Summit| (blether)]] 22:07, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
*:::There will always be at least five of us. [[User:Cullen328|Cullen328]] ([[User talk:Cullen328|talk]]) 08:56, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
*:::Rather depends on how many oppose !votes there are, no? Neither Tamzin nor Floq's RFA could have been SNOW-closed. [[User:FOARP|FOARP]] ([[User talk:FOARP|talk]]) 10:40, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
*::No objection from me if a 'crat wishes to end this per "SNOW", I have received a few useful pieces of feedback plus a ridiculous amount of validation. That said, as far as I'm concerned, this was a real reconfirmation RfA, and I was, and still am, prepared for the possibility of failure - when I started this process, I believe I locked in to it - and I don't believe there's any precedent for "withdrawing as successful", nor should there be because we've had candidates get off to a flying start and end close to the line. [[User:Worm That Turned|''Worm'']]TT([[User talk:Worm That Turned|talk]]) 10:28, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
*:I don't think that's a good idea and I don't like the idea of a precedent being set to snow close RFAs. [[User:Hey man im josh|Hey man im josh]] ([[User talk:Hey man im josh|talk]]) 16:46, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
*:Unsuccessful RFAs can be SNOWed because once sunk low enough for that, there is no coming back. We never SNOW a successful RFA because some voters take a number of days to formulate their thoughts, and we shouldn't pull out the rug from under them. Also, the trajectory of RFA support % always tends downwards (if it changes at all), so a successful RFA can turn borderline or unsuccessful. Granted, that is unlikely in this case, but we still do not SNOW successful RFAs. [[User:Arcticocean|arctic'''ocean''' ■]] 20:00, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
*'''Abstain'''. Worm That Turned is clearly qualified to be an admin, but to the extent that !voting "support" would be an endorsement of the decision to run a reconfirmation RfA, I do not wish to cast such a !vote (nor do I wish to !vote neutral, implying that his qualifications are borderline). As with recalls, a reconfirmation system only works effectively when it's in some way mandatory, not just an opt-in thing for those (like WTT) who can clearly pass. So I don't think this sets any sort of useful precedent, as anyone who might be affected by it (i.e. at risk of not passing) just won't follow it. Voluntary reconfirmations like this (I consider this voluntary even if locked in by the candidate's past promise) use up a lot of community time compared to a post at BN. At best they provide some feedback to the candidate and at worst they're an excuse to seek validation. I don't think either goal justifies the ask of the community. Promising to run a reconfirmation RfA, rather than just going with the normal rules that would have required one anyways in the situation the candidate expected, was a mistake, and I do not wish to encourage others to behave similarly, so I arrive at the decision to abstain. [[User:Sdkb|Sdkb]] [[User talk:Sdkb|'''talk''']] 23:00, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
*:While I agree that this does not move us towards the goals of mandatory RRfA, I think the feedback is helpful not just for the RRfA admin, but also for other readers. The validation is likely good for moral, not just for the RRfA admin, but also for those who get to provide it. [[User:McYeee|McYeee]] ([[User talk:McYeee|talk]]) 23:13, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
*::If editors seek feedback, I wonder if there is any way we could try to facilitate that that doesn't lead us back to the failed [[WP:RFC/U]]. I don't think reconfirmation RfAs are the best approach. [[User:Sdkb|Sdkb]] [[User talk:Sdkb|'''talk''']] 23:17, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
*:::I thought RFC/U was a useful process, but it failed for at least some of the same reasons as [[WP:MEDCOM]], namely that it did not have "teeth" so one could just ignore it and face no consequences. It's probably too late to revive that idea, it has been replaced by the bloodsport at ANI.

I stole it from {{u|0xDeadbeef}}; I wonder if they know why it doesn't work for you.

*I'd have agreed an RRfA ''was'' in general a waste of time...until we developed the recall process. It's no longer a waste of time. Making sure the community still has confidence in you after an almost complete absence of a year is completely valid because someone could start up a petition about their concerns over that literally the day after you request the tools back at BN. And several editors have indeed questioned WTT about that exact issue. I think this is completely justified and probably very smart. The RfA is obviously going pass. A recall petition after requesting tools back? Maybe with a statement that "WTT has been gone for a year, fewer than 100 edits in that time. I think they should have RRfA'd." Would that too pass? At this point, who knows? [[User:Valereee|Valereee]] ([[User talk:Valereee|talk]]) 13:12, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

I've spent another 15 seconds writing this just now. [[User:Thebiguglyalien|Thebiguglyalien]] ([[User talk:Thebiguglyalien|talk]]) 03:44, 15 November 2024 (UTC)
*:15 minutes and 30 seconds? Our coverage of Botswana is forever damaged, most likely beyond repair. Shame on WTT and the amount of time he got you to waste.

*::Yeah, I've also been monitoring this on and off all week as well, so it's probably chewed up a similar amount of my time, including my !vote above. The Botswana point isn't quite as powerful as it might seem at first glance, however, because I imagine most of the people spending time here wouldn't have been writing about Botswana instead. Speaking personally, my "write about Botswana" wiki-session is very different from my "read and contribute to WTT's RFA" mode. I would do the latter while sitting on the train home from work, whereas the former requires assembling sources, meticulously writing stuff out, engaging brain fully etc.  — [[User:Amakuru|Amakuru]] ([[User talk:Amakuru|talk]]) 17:04, 15 November 2024 (UTC)

This is unprofessinal, and considering how stressfully complicated Wikipedia is, I can't properly figure out how to respond to this. But just to let you know, you're an unprofessinal employee who should probably get fired, considering how I never "Self advertised"... I but affiliate and refrence links in my page. This has happened multiple times, and maybe instead of just straight-up banning me, maybe you should try to contact me first to resolve this issue and tell me what I could remove / fix. Thanks. (I doubt i'd be donating that "$1 to keep Wikipedia going" after all...)
{{unblock|reason=The block was 6 years ago for 'advertising' I can't even remember what I did, and I was very young at that time. I am now entering my 20's... So I was probably 13 or 14 at the time.

If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use [[User:瑞丽江的河水/sandbox|your sandbox]].

::{{reply|Cat12zu3}} Hi, yes I know, the map was uploaded by me. The reason for removing the map: it didn't draw out the "Namwan Assigned Tract", readers can not understand where is the place and what this map wants to display. Based on my knowledge, the Chinese official map hasn't drawn Namwan Assigned Tract into part of China since the early 1920s (ref: {{cite journal |author=廖心文 |title=成功解决中缅边界问题——老一辈革命家与边界问题研究之二 |journal=党的文献 |date=2013 |issue=5 |page=88-94 }}). You provide a description <code>shown at center left orange and protruding</code>, however, the "protruding" is Ruili Administrative Bureau / [[Chiefdom of Mengmao]] (nowadays [[Ruili|Ruili City]]). I also drew some [[:commons:Category:Division maps of Ruili|Division maps of Ruili]], so you can easily understand the details of the "protruding". If you got what I said, and agree with me, please remove the map, thank you very much. I come from Dehong, and am familiar with the history related to Yunnan, feel free to ask me any questions.--[[User:瑞丽江的河水|Xiliuheshui]] · [[User talk:瑞丽江的河水|chat]] 16:45, 29 November 2023 (UTC)

I see on your edits page, that you used Citation bot to format my plain text bibliography of Mearsheimer into a wiki-format, and then you transferred this bibliography to separate article [[John Mearsheimer bibliography]]. Thank you for doing this.
I also created a similar list of publications for [[John B.

:Hello! Isn't this a little extreme? Blocking without discussion (beyond templates with "custom reason")? I have never edit warred and stray away from [[Wikipedia:Disruptive editing|disruptive editing]]. For the {{emphasis|block}}, this distills to {{tq|splitting the history}}, which I had no idea was an issue in this case. You could have notified me of that on my talk page. As difficult as it may be for you to have to move these pages back, with my poor Internet connection it is almost infinitely more difficult for me to move pages to mainspace. I have absolutely no intention of repeating this now that I know about the error it causes, and since you moved it back a second time, I would not have moved it back again without discussion.

::Splitting the history via copy-paste move, and ignoring my previous requests for you to fix the unusable references, which was the reason the articles were draftified in the first place.

:I understand your objection to {{tq|copy/paste moves}}, which I was unaware were problematic in the case of articles for which I was the sole contributor, but am now. But {{tq|it is a poor translation}} is your opinion of a {{emphasis|single paragraph}} within the article, which is probably better to discuss on the talk page. If you object with {{tq|unusable references need to be fixed}} to including the inclusion of quotations from the public domain descriptions of the hybrids, why not just delete everything after "quote="? Then explain your reasoning on the talk page. I don't actually rely in the article on more than 1-2 sentences from those quotations yet, and the reason I had included them in the first place was so that I could expand the article from them, which is exactly what would have happened had you waited a day.

:Hello! Could you please elaborate with quotations from those policies? Regarding [[WP:NOPAGE]], the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Bibliographies#Single article bibliographies|Single article bibliographies]] guideline at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Bibliographies|WikiProject Bibliographies]] recommends bibliographies with {{tq|fewer than 10 possible entries}} by placed in the ''Further reading'' section of a parent article rather than a standalone page. The article you have draftified contains 62 entries, and some are duplicates because it is arranged topically, which is another reason for not merging it. Editors tend to use [[Wikipedia:Further_reading#Limited]] to delete entries from further reading sections they consider too long, to say nothing of ''Bibliography'' sections. But if the subject's notability has been established (as I believe it has), the presence of all individual items remains justified (note that [[Veternica bibliography]] is a {{emphasis|curated}} list, consisting only of entries dealing extensively with the cave).
:As for [[WP:NLIST]], the article links to [[Veternica (cave)|Veternica]] in its lead, and the notability of the subject is established in that article. Its notability as a bibliography article is supported by the large number of works that have been written about it, referenced in the article. I recommend reading [[WP:MOS-BIBLIO]] before replying if you have not already. The WikiProject Bibliographies page also contains helpful information. I know very few editors publish bibliography articles here, so your unfamiliarity with them is perfectly understandable.
:If you still have objections, please feel free to bring them up with me here. If you see where you went wrong, would you mind moving the draft back to mainspace yourself? Thank you. [[User:Иованъ|Ivan]] ([[User talk:Иованъ|talk]]) 03:12, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
::See [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Bibliographies#Notability_of_bibliography_articles]]: "For a bibliography on a topic to be notable, the members of that bibliography should be discussed as a group in reliable sources. This discussion may take the form of a published standalone bibliography on the topic, a bibliography in a published reliable source on the topic or recommendations for further reading on the topic published in a reliable source on the topic." While all the articles/books in this bibliography are indeed about Veternica, you have supplied no evidence of secondary, independent, reliable sources discussing ''this set of articles together'' as a bibliography. It appears you have just compiled all the research on the subject here, which is a form of [[WP:ORIGINALRESEARCH]] and not an appropriate subject for a page. Select material can go into the Veternica article as a bibliography, but unless you have evidence of all these sources being covered collectively as a list, I will not move this back into mainspace.

To do this, insert the text <code><nowiki>{{unblock-spamun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}}</nowiki></code> at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with your new username and replace the text "Your reason here" with your reasons to be unblocked.

I see on your edits page, that you used Citation bot to format my plain text bibliography of Mearsheimer into a wiki-format, and then you transferred this bibliography to separate article [[John Mearsheimer bibliography]]. Thank you for doing this.
I also created a similar list of publications for [[John B. Goodenough]], who received in 2019 a Nobel Prize for his contributions to the development of [[lithium-ion batteries]], and who recently passed away.

But {{tq|it is a poor translation}} is your opinion of a {{emphasis|single paragraph}} within the article, which is probably better to discuss on the talk page.

==Appeal of block administered without warning==

{{unblock|reason=
{{collapse top|Background of Block}}
I have been an editor for years without controversy apart from one recent issue resulting from my unfamiliarity with certain [[WP:BLP|BLP]] guidelines, but was blocked without prior warning, it seems, for improper Draft>AfC>Mainspace procedure, following what I thought was an acceptable Draft>Mainspace alternative (admittedly resulting in page history errors I was unaware of) as I had understood moving the page back was an acceptable alternative from @[[User:Queen of Hearts|Queen of Hearts]]' comment, "per [[WP:DRAFTOBJECT]], you are free to move a draftifed page back to mainspace" in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Queen_of_Hearts/Archive_9 this] exchange. My mistake was in moving it via copy-paste, which I was unaware at the time was problematic in cases where I was the sole contributor. The only other reason given for the block besides '''disruptive editing''' when I inquired (above) was a reference to a vague, "custom" instruction '''too much has gone wrong with the references''' made several weeks ago, with little explanation beyond that; I had assumed it to mean one thing (a wrapping issue), but clearly it turned out to be another. Now that I have been made aware, I would not under any circumstances consider continuing to skip the AfC procedure if that is what this administrator requires, since a discussion has ensued and the [[WP:CIVIL]] thing to do is to resolve these issues on the talk pages. I have never edit warred in the formal sense, nor even gone beyond a single revert without believing that I had resolved the issue in the eyes of the objecting editor. I fully intend to show this same respect for procedure in the case brought to my attention regarding the moving of pages between Draftspace and Mainspace. I would have responded the same to a warning, or even a simple talk page message. Therefore, I believe a block is unmerited, and a 2 week block is [[WP:NOPUNISH|PUNITIVE]].
{{collapse bottom}}
{{collapse top|Questions about Draftspace and Mainspace}}
And just in case it is not clear, I am not using [[WP:DRAFTOBJECT]] in my objection to the block, although the wording {{tq|other editors, including the author of the page, but excluding editors with a conflict of interest, have a right to object to draftifying the page. If an editor raises an objection, move the page back to mainspace and, if necessary, list it at AfD}} does {{emphasis|seem}} to indicate that my move of the page from Draftspace back to Mainspace was in order (though not by copy-paste).

I tried actually {{emphasis|moving}} a draft page to mainspace once and couldn't do it, so I assumed that wasn't possible for a non-admin. I can't remember what my problem was, and being blocked at this very moment, I have no means of carrying out the experiment again. Unrelated to blocking-unblocking procedure, how does one carry the history over from Draftspace to Mainspace if not through AfC (not that I am going to skip AfC for these pages, but I do want to understand what Queen of Hearts was referring to)? Whatever the case, with the wording of DRAFTOBJECT, surely one can see the reason for my confusion.
{{collapse bottom}}
{{collapse top|Appeal Reason 1}}
Rather ('''Reason 1'''), per the {{tq|deterrence is based upon the likelihood of repetition}} clause of [[WP:BLOCKPREVENTATIVE]], I am appealing this block on the grounds that, based on my record so far, the chances of repeating the ~error of not moving from Draftspace to Mainspace using AfC (because I still don't know how to {{emphasis|move}} a page from draftspace to mainspace it is a true error), and the very real error of performing a copy-paste move, are 0 now that I have been informed of the issue. All other reasons cited were custom cases not detailed clearly anywhere in Wikipedia policy known to me† to the extent that would justify draftifying. But again, as always, I remain committed to reaching consensus on the talk page regarding those points, and neither had nor have any intention of resolving the issues that resulted in the articles' redraftification through any means other than [[WP:CONSENSUS]].
:† {{small|Admittedly, a very small corpus.}}
{{collapse bottom}}
{{collapse top|Appeal Reason 2}}
Additionally ('''Reason 2'''), given the clause {{tq|accounts used exclusively for disruption may be blocked indefinitely without warning}} in [[WP:DISRUPTONLY]] is the only case for which the customary warning merited by [[WP:BEFOREBLOCK]] can be deferred, barring active disruption which was not the case since the block came fully 22 minutes after my last edit in what had been a brief, isolated chain of edits, it is troubling that the blocking admin must have by extent considered this account "used exclusively for disruption". Perhaps this is an effect of the state of my talk page? From my perspective, it is difficult to see how multi-year efforts like [[List of Glagolitic inscriptions (16th century)]],† multi-month efforts like [[List of caves of Zagrebačka gora]], ''[[Cirsium greimleri]]'' or more standard, often month-long efforts like [[Veternica (cave)]] and [[Veternica bibliography]], [[Angular Glagolitic]], [[Pre-Greek substrate bibliography]], [[Pazinčica]], [[Blagaj Castle]] and [[Krka (Adriatic Sea)]], to name a few, could fall under disruption. Looking at [https://xtools.wmcloud.org/ec/en.wikipedia.org/%D0%98%D0%BE%D0%B2%D0%B0%D0%BD%D1%8A my contributions], it should be obvious I am [[Wikipedia:Here to build an encyclopedia|Here to build an encyclopedia]].
:† {{small|Or the unfinished, unpolished [[List of Glagolitic printed works]] and [[Lists of Glagolitic manuscripts]], the latter taking over a decade to compose.}}
{{collapse bottom}}

Basically, an appeal on [[WP:GAB]]† points 1 {{tq|that the block is no longer necessary because I understand ... and will not do it again}} (regarding the copy-paste moves) and 2 {{tq|that the block was not necessary to prevent damage or disruption}} (policy dictates I be warned first).
:† {{small|An essay page but incorporated into the [[Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Blocking#When to unblock|When to unblock]] section of the Administrators' guide, within which this unblock request aims to fulfil the conditions of "an appropriate unblock request".}}

Alternatively, in terms of the boilerplate text this is an appeal based on fulfillment of:
*the block is not necessary to prevent damage or disruption to Wikipedia ([[File:Pictogram voting keep-light-green.svg|baseline|12px]] I always engage in discussion as soon as an error is pointed out and the solution is unclear), or
*the block is no longer necessary because you
*#understand what you have been blocked for ([[File:Pictogram voting keep-light-green.svg|baseline|12px]] copy-paste moves),
*#will not continue to cause damage or disruption ([[File:Pictogram voting keep-light-green.svg|baseline|12px]] a talk page message would have sufficed), and
*#will make useful contributions instead ([[File:Pictogram voting keep-light-green.svg|baseline|12px]] as always).

I bear no ill will towards the blocking admin for his procedural mistake and wish to work together with him to improve the hybrid pages by bringing them into conformity with both policy and his additional criteria, whenever he decides to provide more detail concerning what exactly he wants changed. I'm in no rush for that. But at the moment, this block is preventing me from improving an unrelated article and publishing a chain of articles I have written on subjects related to said article. And a lot can happen in 2 weeks.

Sincerely, [[User:Иованъ|Ivan]] ([[User talk:Иованъ|talk]]) 20:13, 23 July 2024 (UTC)}}
:In my experience, shorter requests are far more likely to be read, and acted on. A simple "In retrospect, I shouldn't have done that. I understand better now what I did, and it won't happen again" is typically FAR more productive than a long lawyer-ish essay.
:Your commitment not to continue to cause damage or disruption is only "{{tq|a talk page message would have sufficed}}", and your pledge to make useful contributions instead appears to me to imply that you believe that you've done nothing wrong "{{tq|as always}}".
:Regarding your point about a warning being required before issuing a block, on [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|the very same page you linked to]], there is a passage that reads "{{tq|However, warnings are not a prerequisite for blocking.}}". My take on this request is that this misunderstanding of the blocking policy is most of your argument for being unblocked (it's even in the section heading).

Regarding [[WP:NOPAGE]], the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Bibliographies#Single article bibliographies|Single article bibliographies]] guideline at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Bibliographies|WikiProject Bibliographies]] recommends bibliographies with {{tq|fewer than 10 possible entries}} by placed in the ''Further reading'' section of a parent article rather than a standalone page. The article you have draftified contains 62 entries, and some are duplicates because it is arranged topically, which is another reason for not merging it. Editors tend to use [[Wikipedia:Further_reading#Limited]] to delete entries from further reading sections they consider too long, to say nothing of ''Bibliography'' sections. But if the subject's notability has been established (as I believe it has), the presence of all individual items remains justified (note that [[Veternica bibliography]] is a {{emphasis|curated}} list, consisting only of entries dealing extensively with the cave).
:As for [[WP:NLIST]], the article links to [[Veternica (cave)|Veternica]] in its lead, and the notability of the subject is established in that article. Its notability as a bibliography article is supported by the large number of works that have been written about it, referenced in the article. I recommend reading [[WP:MOS-BIBLIO]] before replying if you have not already. The WikiProject Bibliographies page also contains helpful information. I know very few editors publish bibliography articles here, so your unfamiliarity with them is perfectly understandable.
:If you still have objections, please feel free to bring them up with me here. If you see where you went wrong, would you mind moving the draft back to mainspace yourself? Thank you. [[User:Иованъ|Ivan]] ([[User talk:Иованъ|talk]]) 03:12, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
::See [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Bibliographies#Notability_of_bibliography_articles]]: "For a bibliography on a topic to be notable, the members of that bibliography should be discussed as a group in reliable sources. This discussion may take the form of a published standalone bibliography on the topic, a bibliography in a published reliable source on the topic or recommendations for further reading on the topic published in a reliable source on the topic." While all the articles/books in this bibliography are indeed about Veternica, you have supplied no evidence of secondary, independent, reliable sources discussing ''this set of articles together'' as a bibliography. It appears you have just compiled all the research on the subject here, which is a form of [[WP:ORIGINALRESEARCH]] and not an appropriate subject for a page. Select material can go into the Veternica article as a bibliography, but unless you have evidence of all these sources being covered collectively as a list, I will not move this back into mainspace.

{{box|color=#EBFFE9|align=left|I've noticed that you've expressed an interest in the [[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Palestine-Israel articles|Arab–Israeli conflict]].

== Introduction to contentious topics ==
{{ivmbox | image = Commons-emblem-notice.svg |imagesize=50px | bg = #E5F8FF | text = You have recently edited a page related to '''the [[Arab–Israeli conflict]]''', a topic designated as '''[[WP:AC/CT|contentious]]'''. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as ''contentious topics''. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:
*adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
*comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
*follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
*comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
*refrain from gaming the system.

Additionally, you must be logged-in, have [[WP:ECR|500 edits and an account age of 30 days]], and are not allowed to make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on a page within this topic.Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics ''procedures'' you may ask them at the [[WT:AC/C|arbitration clerks' noticeboard]] or you may learn more about this contentious topic [[Wikipedia:Arbitration/Index/Palestine-Israel articles|here]]. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{tl|Ctopics/aware}} template. }} [[User:ScottishFinnishRadish|ScottishFinnishRadish]] ([[User talk:ScottishFinnishRadish|talk]]) 16:05, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

::: To be sure you understand what you did wrong, you made personal attacks and assumed bad faith by implying that Soibangla was spreading conspiracy theories and making edits based on their personal POV and political beliefs.
::# From [[WP:NPA#What is considered to be a personal attack?|What is considered to be a personal attack?]]: {{tq|"Using someone's political affiliations as an ''ad hominem'' means of dismissing or discrediting their views, such as accusing them of being [[left-wing politics|left-wing]] or [[right-wing politics|right-wing]], is also forbidden. Editors are allowed to have personal political POV, as long as it does not negatively affect their editing and discussions."}}
::# You must always [[WP:AGF]]. That means you must not attribute a person's editing to their personal POV or political beliefs. You must assume they are basing their edits on what RS say, unless there is clear evidence to the contrary. If they are adding political POV to an article, without any sourcing, then go to their talk page and politely ask, not accuse, them about it. Ask them if they have a good source for what they wrote, because adding nearly any content without a source is itself a problem.
::: {{ping|Soibangla}} is a very diligent and experienced editor, and we can all learn a lot from them. You would do well to assume they are usually right. When you find yourself disagreeing with Soibangla, why not politely ask them for clarification? You will more than likely learn something factual that runs contrary to what you have formerly believed. Soibangla is a famed debunking and fact-checking expert who is known by some very prominent (Elon Musk, for one) pushers of BS and conspiracy theories. Between Musk and Soibangla, the latter is nearly always right, but that's a low bar, because he's pretty ignorant of some important matters. -- [[User:Valjean|Valjean]] ([[User talk:Valjean|talk]]) (PING me) 19:15, 26 July 2024 (UTC)

About half of new Wikipedia accounts receive a mentor chosen randomly from a list of volunteers. It just means I'm here to help with anything you need! We need to have all kinds of people working together to create an online encyclopedia, so I'm glad you're here. Over time, you will figure out what you enjoy doing the most on Wikipedia.

You might have noticed that you have access to [[Special:Homepage|a tutorial and suggested edits]]. It's recommended that you take advantage of this, as it'll make learning how to edit Wikipedia easier.

If you need assistance with anything or have any questions, click on the "Get editing help" button on the bottom right corner of your screen. This will open up a module with links to help pages and a place to ask me questions.

::::If they start expressing those views on here then yes, it generally ends up in a ban.

Wikipedia is a very inclusive community, provided editors demonstrate [[WP:CIR|competence]].
::::Anyway, welcome in! I stumbled across you because one of our bots picked up the "Putin" in your name and flagged it as a possible cause for concern.

It may be necessary for us to take a trip to ANI. I would ask that you review [[WP:NPA]] and remove your multiple personal attacks on the talk page of [[Jimmy Chérizier]]. Accusing someone of lying for no reason is a blockable offense. There are norms on en.wp, both in terms of RS and behavior. You are currently over the line in terms of both. Insofar as you make it seem that you are young (use of "bruh" and other internet slang), I am being particularly tolerant and bending over backwards to give you a chance to get a handle on expected behavior here.

:Personal attacks? What? Also you were lying, you said Hitler was elected when he was appointed, you won't admit Jimmy Barbecue is a politician by definition. A reliable source calls him a politician. Also I am young, I'm 19, how does that have to do with anything. I keep saying "bruh" because I personally viewed this argument as pathetic, because you keep wanting to fight with me and stress me out just because of 1 edit I made.

[[File:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Hi JUMPp1harm! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor that may not have been.

Any edit that changes the ''meaning'' of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see [[Help:Minor edit]] for more information. Thank you.

== Introduction to contentious topics ==
{{ivmbox | image = Commons-emblem-notice.svg |imagesize=50px | bg = #E5F8FF | text = You have recently edited a page related to '''the [[Horn of Africa]] (defined as including Ethiopia, Somalia, Eritrea, Djibouti, and adjoining areas if involved in related disputes)''', a topic designated as '''[[WP:AC/CT|contentious]]'''. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as ''contentious topics''. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:
*adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
*comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
*follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
*comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
*refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics ''procedures'' you may ask them at the [[WT:AC/C|arbitration clerks' noticeboard]] or you may learn more about this contentious topic [[Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Horn of Africa|here]]. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{tl|Ctopics/aware}} template. }} [[User:Daniel Case|Daniel Case]] ([[User talk:Daniel Case|talk]]) 18:13, 31 January 2024 (UTC)

To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the [[Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines|talk page]] to work toward making a version that represents [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about [[WP:EPTALK|how this is done]].

'''Being involved in an edit war can result in you being [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocked from editing]]'''—especially if you violate the [[Wikipedia:Edit warring#The three-revert rule|three-revert rule]], which states that an editor must not perform more than three [[Help:Reverting|reverts]] on a single page within a 24-hour period.

[[File:Copyright-problem.svg|64px|left|File Copyright problem|link=]]
Thanks for uploading '''[[:File:Zara Yacob.jpg]]'''. However, it currently is missing information on its '''copyright''' status and its '''source'''. Wikipedia takes [[Wikipedia:Copyrights|copyright]] very seriously.

If you did not create this work entirely yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. You will also need to state under what licensing terms it was released. Please refer to the '''[[WP:IUP#Adding images|image use policy]]''' to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on '''[[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags|copyright tags]]''' may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file.

Please add this information by editing the [[:File:Zara Yacob.jpg|image description page]]. If the necessary information is not added within the next seven days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a [[Wikipedia:Requests for undeletion|request for undeletion]] and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is [[Special:ListFiles/JUMPp1harm|a list of your uploads]].

The '''.40 Super''' ('''10.2x25mm''') is a powerful [[semi-automatic firearm|automatic]] [[pistol]] cartridge developed through the collaboration of Fernando Coelho and Tom Burczynski and introduced by Triton Cartridge in 1996. It delivers ballistics comparable to the [[.41 Remington Magnum|.41 Magnum]] revolver cartridge, yet functions in standard 1911s and other full-size pistols. A 5” 1911 chambered in the cartridge is capable of penetrating 46” of Clear Ballistics gel.[https://www.youtube.com/watch?si=c3mR7iGUjXIYTJsi&v=iCZVuUu5MuA&]

The cartridge never attained mainstream success, Triton Cartridge eventually suspended operations, and supplies and support for the round are now limited.<ref name="GW">{{cite book|title=Gun World magazine|edition=July 2000|year=2000}}</ref>

==History and design==
In 1994 Triton Cartridge, an ammunition company based in upstate NY, released a cartridge called the [[.45 Super]]. Essentially, the .45 Super is based on a [[.451 Detonics Magnum|.451 Detonics]]<ref name="Detonics .451 History">{{cite journal | title=Short History of the .451 Detonics Magnum | date=2012-08-05 | url=http://www.z3bigdaddy.com/site8/page44.html | website=Z3BigDaddy | access-date=2015-06-24 | archive-date=2015-06-23 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150623233828/http://www.z3bigdaddy.com/site8/page44.html | url-status=dead }}</ref> case trimmed to .45 ACP length. Pioneered by writers Dean Grennell and the late Tom Ferguson, the .45 Super raised the performance level for .45 ACP-chambered autos beyond that of the .45 ACP+P and even the [[10mm Auto]].

[[Image:Triton Logo.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Triton logo]]

With the availability of the strong .45 Super cartridge case, in January 1996 Fernando Coelho (president and founder of Triton Cartridge) and Tom Burczynski (inventor of Hydra-Shok, Starfire and Quik-Shok bullets) began work on a new, more radical cartridge. Based on a .45 Super necked down to .40 caliber, the new cartridge began to take shape.

Necking a .45 ACP to .40 caliber was nothing new. Before the public debut of the .40 S&W, Charles Petty, a well-known and respected writer, had already ventured into the bottleneck arena. His cartridge, called the "10mm Centaur", was based on a .45 ACP case necked to .40 caliber using 10 mm dies. Prior to that, Dean Grennell took .451<ref name="Detonics .451 History"/> Detonics cases and necked them down to
9 mm, calling it the ".38/45 Hard Head".
In 1984 J.D. Jones of SSK Industries created a wildcat based on the full length .451 Detonics Magnum case necked to hold the 170 JHP .41 caliber bullet designed for the 41 Remington Magnum. He called this wildcat the 41 Avenger. SSK offered 41 Avenger barrels with case forming and reloading dies as a kit for the Colt 1911.

Petty and Tony Rumore (Tromix) were major contributors in the initial load development for Triton's new cartridge. During that time, Triton began closely examining the specific attributes of the cartridge (feed reliability, case strength, down-range ballistic performance, etc.). In order to maximize the performance potential and reliability of the new cartridge, it was decided to lengthen the cartridge case from .45 ACP (.898 in) to 10 mm (.992 in) length. By trimming .45 Winchester Magnum brass to 10 mm case length and necking them to .40 caliber, the .40 Super began to take final shape.

[[Image:The .40 Super.jpg|thumb|right|200px|.40 Super ammunition box]]

Working closely with Starline Brass Company, more testing was conducted on the cartridge case. These tests led to further improvements. A small primer pocket replaced the large primer pocket. This allowed the use of small pistol magnum or small rifle primers and helped control primer flow. The final improvement came with the increased thickness of the cartridge case wall from the web area up to the beginning of the shoulder. This created a cartridge case stronger than the .45 Winchester Magnum cartridge case.

The .40 Super cartridge case was designed for a balance of strength and powder capacity. To maximize bullet pull and overall feeding characteristics, the case has a neck length of .175 in. The shoulder angle is an optimum 25 degrees. The neck yields more precise bullet alignment than can be achieved using a cartridge with a shorter neck. This translates to increased accuracy. The pressure limit for factory .40 Super ammunition from Triton was 37,000 PSI, well below the strength limits of the cartridge case.

The .40 Super drives a 135 grain bullet to 1,800 feet per second while generating less chamber pressure than the [[9x23mm Winchester]]. With a 200-grain bullet, the .40 Super delivers more foot-pounds of energy at 100 yards than the .45 ACP does at the muzzle.

The original plan was to market the .40 Super as the .40 SIG, the big brother to the .357 SIG. The cartridge was introduced in 1996 to Michael Bussard, the assistant to the president of SigArms, and he was interested in the cartridge for use in the P220 pistol. Safari Arms also produced a couple of barrels marked "Triton 10", presumably prior to Triton selecting the .40 Super moniker.

Initial prototype .40 Super brass actually had a headstamp that read, ".45 Colt" with the second batch of prototype cases stamped "45 WinMag". Starline Brass, the manufacturer of the .40 Super cartridge case, used .45 Colt forming dies and later the 45 Win Mag dies. Ultimately the headstamp was updated to read, "Triton .40 Super" and the previous large pistol primer pocket was changed to accept small rifle and pistol primers.

[[Image:40 Super Case Dimensions.jpg|thumb|right|500px|.40 Super case dimensions]]

==Ammunition and handloading==
From a reloader standpoint, there was tremendous versatility in the .40 Super. Bullet weights on the market included: 125, 135, 150, 155, 165, 170, 180, 190, 200 and 220 grains. Loads were developed with a dozen powders. Small pistol magnum or small rifle primers could be utilized. Brass was available from both Triton and Starline Brass Company.

Many semi-automatic pistols can accommodate the .40 Super, especially those already chambered for the .45 ACP cartridge are the easiest to convert. This is accomplished by simply swapping out the .45 ACP barrel with the .40 Super barrel and upgrading the recoil spring system with a heavy duty spring. Existing .45 ACP magazines are utilized with no modifications.

Handguns converted to .40 Super include the S&W 4506, Glock 21, Glock 30, SIG P220, FNH FNP-45, FNH FNX-45, HK USP, Tanfoglio Witness and the 1911 Government Model (and its variants). Handguns set up for the .45 Super cartridge only need a barrel swap. Handguns chambered for the .400 Cor-Bon can have their barrels rechambered to .40 Super.{{cite book|title=Gun World magazine|edition=July 2000|year=2000}}

Factory-chambered 1911 handguns were introduced by STI. Barrel reamers were produced by Clymer Mfg and Pacific Tool and Gauge. Barrels and conversions were available from Bar-Sto Barrels, Jarvis, Inc., Storm Lake Machine, Cylinder & Slide, Al's Custom, Inc., Morris Custom, LaRocca Gunworks, and EFK Fire Dragon. Reloading dies are available from RCBS and Redding.

[[Image:40 Super Ballistics.jpg|thumb|left|400px|.40 Super ballistics comparison]]

==Current status==
The .40 Super cartridge lost momentum when Triton Cartridge was sold and later closed. Double Tap Ammo and Underwood Ammo still offer loaded ammunition for the .40 Super. Today brass is still available from Starline Brass Company and DoubleTap. 1911 conversion kits or barrels are no longer available as of 2013; the last known source was Bar-Sto Precision Machine. Lone Wolf Distributors and RockYourGlock still offer conversion barrels for the Glock 21 (for such conversions, the shooter must use a Glock 21 10-round single-stack magazine to ensure reliable feeding; a double-stack 13-round magazine will not feed reliably).

== Managing a conflict of interest ==

[[File:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Hello, XPOTours. We [[Help:Getting started|welcome]] your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things [[Special:Contributions/XPOTours|you have written about]] on the page [[:Saona Island]], you may have a [[conflict of interest]] (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the '''[[Wikipedia:Conflict of interest|conflict of interest guideline]]''' and [[Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations|FAQ for organizations]] for more information. We ask that you:

*'''avoid editing or creating''' articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
* '''propose changes''' on the [[Help:Talk pages|talk pages]] of affected articles (you can use the {{tl|edit COI}} template);
* '''disclose''' your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see {{Section link|Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI}});
*'''avoid linking''' to your organization's website in other articles (see {{Section link|Wikipedia:Spam#External link spamming}});
*'''do your best''' to comply with Wikipedia's [[Wikipedia:Core content policies|content policies]].

In addition, you are '''required''' by the [[Wikimedia Foundation]]'s terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See [[Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure]].

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you.{{#ifexpr: ({{#time: U | now}} - 1707334927) < 13150000 | [[Category:User talk pages with conflict of interest notices|{{PAGENAME}}]] | }} [[User:CoconutOctopus|CoconutOctopus]] [[User talk:CoconutOctopus|talk]] 19:42, 7 February 2024 (UTC)

:Hi there, sorry if I did anything wrong as I though I had to create a user for the new information I would post, I'm trying to figure out how to give useful information to readers.

Also, your username gives the impression that the account represents a business, organisation, group, or web site, which is against the [[WP:UN|username policy]].

If you intend to make useful contributions instead of promoting your business or organization, you may request unblock and a username change. In your reasons, '''you must''':
*Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the [[Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure|paid-contribution disclosure]] requirement; and
*Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked; and
*Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked; and
*Provide a new username.
To do this, post the text <code><nowiki>{{unblock-spamun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}}</nowiki></code> at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with your new username and replace the text "Your reason here" with your reasons to be unblocked.

Please note that the new username you choose cannot already be taken and in use by another account. You can go [[Special:CentralAuth|here]] to search and see if the username you'd like to choose is available. If the search returns that no global account with that username exists, that means it is available to be taken.

'''Appeals:''' If, after reviewing the [[WP:Guide to appealing blocks|guide to appealing blocks]], you believe this block was made in error, you may [[WP:Appealing a block|appeal it]] by adding the text <code><nowiki>{{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}</nowiki></code> at the bottom of your talk page.

[[File:Information.svg|left|25px|alt=Information icon]] Hello Whoisim. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to [[:Draft:Inspire Entertainment Resort]], gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's [[Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure|mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements]]. Paid advocacy is a category of [[Wikipedia:Conflict of interest|conflict of interest]] (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on [[Wikipedia:Neutral point of view|neutral point of view]] and what [[Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not|Wikipedia is not]], and is an especially serious type of COI; the [[Wikimedia Foundation]] regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to [[Spamdexing|black-hat search-engine optimization]].

Paid advocates are strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the [[Help:Talk pages|talk page]] of the article in question if an article exists. If the article does not exist, paid advocates are strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the [[Wikipedia:Articles for creation|articles for creation]] process, rather than directly.

Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are '''required by the [[wmf:TOU#paid-contrib-disclosure|Wikimedia Terms of Use]] to disclose your employer, client and affiliation.''' You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at [[User:Whoisim]]. The template {{tl|Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{tlc|paid|2=user=Whoisim|3=employer=<var>InsertName</var>|4=client=<var>InsertName</var>}}. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, '''do not edit further''' until you answer this message.  [[User:DoubleGrazing|DoubleGrazing]] ([[User talk:DoubleGrazing|talk]]) 08:01, 30 January 2024 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on [[:Draft:Inspire Entertainment Resort]], requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#G11|section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read [[Wikipedia:Spam|the guidelines on spam]] and [[Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations]] for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may '''contest the nomination''' by [[:Draft:Inspire Entertainment Resort|visiting the page]] and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with [[Wikipedia:List of policies|Wikipedia's policies and guidelines]]. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the {{Querylink|Special:Log|qs=type=delete&page=Draft%3AInspire+Entertainment+Resort|deleting administrator}}.

Hello, Nkfarabihasannaim. Thank you for helping to build Wikipedia-- the world's largest [[free content]] encyclopedia. A page you created  [[:Draft:Naim Hasan]] has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done under [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#G11|section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], because the page seemed to be unambiguous advertising which only promoted a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to have been fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic.

This article needs to be rewritten from scratch from [[WP:RS|reliable, third party sources unconnected to the subject]]. [[Wikipedia:Purpose|Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. It is not an outlet for promotion, advocacy, or advertising.]]

Information on content and common pitfalls to avoid can be located '''[[Wikipedia:Identifying blatant advertising#Typical signs of blatant advertising|here]]''' and '''[[User:Deepfriedokra/promo|here]]''', however be aware that this is not an exhaustive list. Pages can sometimes avoid these pitfalls and still be seen as an ad copy or unambiguously promotional, particularly if the editor appears to be a [[WP:PAID|paid editor]] or has some other [[Wikipedia:Conflict of interest|conflict of interest]]. Please review these policies, including the [[Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations|FAQ page on organizations]] to determine if this applies to you.

Common mistakes or beliefs about promotional editing center on the assumption that promotional editing only applies to promotion for commercial gain. Some tags or G11 nominations are met with confusion by creators, particularly if they spend much time reading or creating corporate documents, mission/vision statements, or similar copy for their organization. The frequent exposure to promotional tone may make it difficult to notice non-neutral phrases or styles, as the editor has grown accustomed to seeing it as everyday writing or speech. This can be difficult, but not impossible, to unlearn.

Another common assumption is that the prohibition against promotional editing applies only to businesses or organizations. [[WP:G11|Anything can be promoted, including a person, a non-commercial organization, a point of view, etc.]] and [[WP:RESUME|CV/resumé]]'s are by their nature promotional.

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia-- subjects must meet [[WP:N|notability guidelines]] with [[WP:RS|reliable sources]] that are [[WP:IS|unconnected with the subject]] and providing [[WP:V|verifiable information]]. '''That generally means someone unconnected with the subject needs to have written a great deal about the subject. ''' Please see [[ Wikipedia:Citing sources|this page on citing sources]] and [[Wikipedia:Common sourcing mistakes (notability)]]. [[Template:cite|This page]] has templates you can use in citing your sources. Place the template <nowiki>{{Reflist}}</nowiki> at the bottom of the page, and references cited in the text will appear there. New article creation can be difficult, but the [[WP:WIZ|Article Wizard]] can help you. The [[WP:TWA|new user tutorial]] can help you avoid future problems.You can ask for help at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/Help desk]] and on [https://web.libera.chat/?channel=#wikipedia-en-help IRC chat] [[Wikipedia:The Wikipedia Adventure]] is a useful tutorial.

New article creation can be difficult and frustrating. Sometimes it is better to first gain experience by fixing and helping maintain existing articles. [[Wikipedia:Community portal/Opentask]] contains links to things that badly need doing, if you are so inclined.

[[File:Stop hand nuvola.svg|30px|left|alt=Stop icon]] Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an [[Wikipedia:Edit warring|edit war]]; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the [[Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines|talk page]] to work toward making a version that represents [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See [[Wikipedia:BOLD, revert, discuss cycle|the bold, revert, discuss cycle]] for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant [[Wikipedia:Noticeboards|noticeboard]] or seek [[Wikipedia:Dispute resolution|dispute resolution]]. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary [[Wikipedia:Protection policy|page protection]].

'''Being involved in an edit war can result in you being [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocked from editing]]'''—especially if you violate the [[Wikipedia:Edit warring#The three-revert rule|three-revert rule]], which states that an editor must not perform more than three [[Help:Reverting|reverts]] on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—'''even if you do not violate the three-revert rule'''—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. - [[User:LouisAragon|LouisAragon]] ([[User talk:LouisAragon|talk]]) 22:02, 12 October 2020 (UTC)

:Hi {{u|Meambokhe}}, I've had a look at the whole situation again.
:*You had been [[WP:EW|edit warring]] at [[Seljuk Empire]] ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Seljuk_Empire&diff=prev&oldid=982946774&diffmode=source] [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Seljuk_Empire&diff=prev&oldid=983189106&diffmode=source] [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Seljuk_Empire&diff=prev&oldid=983199100&diffmode=source] [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Seljuk_Empire&diff=prev&oldid=983206371&diffmode=source]). You have been warned about this on 12 October 2020; the warning is currently displayed at the top of this page here. It was the first message you had received on Wikipedia.
:*You went into full personal confrontation mode at [[Talk:Colchis]], citing the "[[WP:NOTFORUM|Wikipedia is not a forum]]" policy while throwing accusations of vandalism and history-related insults around ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Colchis&diff=prev&oldid=1005465589&diffmode=source diff]).
:*You joined a heated conflict against "tendentious writings" at [[Turkish War of Independence]], causing the page to be fully protected for a week ([[Special:Diff/1013678406|diff]], [[Special:Diff/1013681379|protection]]).
:*You continued to fuel the fire by describing the article as an "anachronistic and provocative" "programda [propaganda?] page" against already-expected opposition ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Turkish_War_of_Independence&diff=prev&oldid=1017733681&diffmode=source diff], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Turkish_War_of_Independence&diff=next&oldid=1017735803&diffmode=source opposition]). The page ended up being extended-confirmed protected for three months to prevent further disruption, likely including from you ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Turkish_War_of_Independence&diff=1027605642&oldid=1027595494&diffmode=source result]).
:*You replaced the map at [[Oghuz languages]] ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Oghuz_languages&diff=prev&oldid=1018400700 diff]) immediately after this replacement had been reverted ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Oghuz_languages&diff=next&oldid=1015848061&diffmode=source diff]). So I assume that you saw the change, saw opposition to the change, and reacted by reinstating the reverted change, instead of discussing the matter on the article's talk page. Expectably, your revert was reverted again immediately afterwards ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Oghuz_languages&diff=next&oldid=1018400700&diffmode=source diff]), indicating that you shouldn't have joined this conflict in the first place.
:*You joined yet another conflict at [[Armenian national liberation movement]], by introducing unsourced controversial wording ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Armenian_national_liberation_movement&diff=prev&oldid=1017268179&diffmode=source diff]), seeing it being reverted ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Armenian_national_liberation_movement&diff=next&oldid=1017268179&diffmode=source diff]), re-instating the reverted content with a broken citation template ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Armenian_national_liberation_movement&diff=prev&oldid=1017729957&diffmode=source diff]), seeing it being reverted again ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Armenian_national_liberation_movement&diff=prev&oldid=1017776068&diffmode=source diff]), re-instating the reverted content with a fixed citation template ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Armenian_national_liberation_movement&diff=prev&oldid=1017729957&diffmode=source diff]), expectably resulting in yet another revert ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Armenian_national_liberation_movement&diff=next&oldid=1019628572&diffmode=source diff]). It is unclear if you genuinely believed that the final edit would be accepted: Either you didn't pay the necessary attention to others' concerns, or you overrode them intentionally. Both scenarios are problematic.
:*You [[WP:EW|edit warred]] at [[Greek War of Independence]], calling others' concerned reverts "vandalism", thus accusing them of intentionally damaging the encyclopedia: [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Greek_War_of_Independence&diff=prev&oldid=1019653150&diffmode=source] [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Greek_War_of_Independence&diff=prev&oldid=1019987571&diffmode=source] [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Greek_War_of_Independence&diff=prev&oldid=1020203779&diffmode=source] [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Greek_War_of_Independence&diff=prev&oldid=1021402745&diffmode=source]
:*You deleted an on-topic discussion at [[Talk:Turkish War of Independence]] ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Turkish_War_of_Independence&diff=prev&oldid=1021409043&diffmode=source diff]), were reverted immediately with an accurate explanative edit summary ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Turkish_War_of_Independence&diff=next&oldid=1021409043&diffmode=source diff]), edited your user talk page more than 30 minutes after the revert ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Meambokhe&diff=prev&oldid=1021413985&diffmode=source], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Meambokhe&diff=prev&oldid=1021414120&diffmode=source]) and then continued to remove on-topic discussions ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Turkish_War_of_Independence&diff=next&oldid=1021411150&diffmode=source diff]). It is possible that you did not notice Praxidicae's revert, but you have certainly received a revert notification during your user talk page edits, and paying attention to such notifications would have informed you about the issue. Alternatively, it is possible that you had seen Praxidicae's concern and removed further discussions anyway, which would then be yet another case of edit warring.
:*You accused others of "deleting sourced information just [because] [they] don't like [the information] personally", and you asked them to "stop talking about imaginary things" ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Armenian_national_liberation_movement&diff=prev&oldid=1021399601&diffmode=source diff]), which is [[WP:Civility|incivil]] and a destructive way to approach a content-related conversation.
:*You reported buidhe, one of your direct discussion opponents at [[Armenian national liberation movement]] ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armenian_national_liberation_movement?diff=prev&oldid=1020458879&diffmode=source] [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Armenian_national_liberation_movement&diff=prev&oldid=1020499695&diffmode=source] [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Armenian_national_liberation_movement&diff=next&oldid=1020499695&diffmode=source]) and participant in the conflict at [[Turkish War of Independence]] ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turkish_War_of_Independence?diff=prev&oldid=1021320665&diffmode=source]), on administrative noticeboards: [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Usernames_for_administrator_attention&diff=prev&oldid=1021622826&diffmode=source for their username], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Usernames_for_administrator_attention&diff=prev&oldid=1021625592&diffmode=source for their username again], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Usernames_for_administrator_attention&diff=prev&oldid=1021626135&diffmode=source for their username yet another time], and finally [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrator_intervention_against_vandalism&diff=prev&oldid=1021626455&diffmode=source for vandalism].

[[File:Information orange.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did at [[:Kaftan]], without giving a valid reason for the removal in the [[Help:Edit summary|edit summary]]. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been [[Help:Reverting|reverted]]. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use [[User:Maddimal/sandbox|your sandbox]] for that. Thank you. [[User:M.Bitton|M.Bitton]] ([[User talk:M.Bitton|talk]]) 11:50, 28 January 2024 (UTC)

[[File:Ambox warning pn.svg|30px|link=]] You currently appear to be engaged in an [[WP:Edit warring|edit war]] according to the reverts you have made on [[:Kaftan]]. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to [[Wikipedia:Consensus#In talk pages|collaborate]] with others, to avoid editing [[WP:Disruptive editing|disruptively]], and to [[WP:Consensus|try to reach a consensus]], rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:
# '''Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;'''
# '''Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.'''
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's [[Help:Talk pages|talk page]] to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an [[WP:Noticeboards|appropriate noticeboard]] or seek [[Wikipedia:Dispute resolution|dispute resolution]]. In some cases, it may be appropriate to [[WP:Requests for page protection|request temporary page protection]]. If you engage in an edit war, you '''may be [[WP:Blocking policy|blocked]] from editing.'''  [[User:M.Bitton|M.Bitton]] ([[User talk:M.Bitton|talk]]) 12:33, 28 January 2024 (UTC)

*Please refrain from disrupting the article either by removing content or adding irrelevant sources and original research. The section that you keep targetting is properly sourced, so there is no reason whatsoever for you to be disputing it (with invalid arguments to boot). Also, you are clearly ignoring the above warning and edit warring (again) to push the same POV. [[User:M.Bitton|M.Bitton]] ([[User talk:M.Bitton|talk]]) 15:16, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
*:Is it customary for all sections to feature images except the Moroccan section? I am curious about the reasoning behind this discrepancy. One cannot convincingly portray oneself as an impartial actor devoid of ideological motivations. The issue lies not in inadequate sourcing; rather, it stems from deliberate, selective sourcing, which focuses solely on a brief period of the Saadian dynasty spanning two years, disregarding over 1200 years of Islamic history and intentionally overlooking the contributions of the three Moroccan Berber empires predating the Ottomans. What is particularly perplexing is that none of the countries formerly colonized by the Ottomans possess attire resembling the Moroccan Kaftan in any way. [[User:Maddimal|Maddimal]] ([[User talk:Maddimal#top|talk]]) 15:51, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
*::There is an image that shows the Moroccan Kaftan (A Ntaa Kaftan of Fez). As for the sourcing. it's mostly attributed to Moroccan scholars. Islamic means diddly squat as far as the Kaftan is concerned. I suggest you read the article and spend some time checking the biographies of the scholars in question (especially, Naima El Khatib Boujibar).

== falsely accused of POV pushing and Maliciously Blocked ==

{{unblock reviewed |1=As a first-time editor, I've faced obstacles on Wikipedia due to admin @M.Bitton, who seems to have maliciously caused my block. The Kaftan page, under their oversight, shows evident bias and selective sourcing, especially in the Moroccan section. This bias results in the deletion of reputable sources on the kaftan's Moroccan origins, with the content suggesting Ottoman roots. Despite Morocco's 1200-year Islamic history, the section disproportionately focuses on Ottoman interaction, comprising 70% of its content for just two years. Additionally, the section lacks images, unlike others. I believe this admin employs a deliberate strategy of suppressing quality contributions that contradict their agenda, resorting to warnings about edit wars and accusations of pushing a particular POV, all seemingly aimed at building a case for an eventual permanent block. Unfortunately, my attempts to address issues such as deliberate misquotations of references have been met with refusal to correct them, even in the discussion section. In summary, the admin's actions amount to an abuse of their position, characterized by selective and biased editing tactics, coupled with a calculated strategy of accusations and building a case for blocking dissenting voices. The ultimate goal appears to be to assert the claim that the origin of the Moroccan kaftan lies with Algeria's former colonizers, the Ottomans. @[[User:Daniel Case|Daniel_Case]] [[User:Maddimal|Maddimal]] ([[User talk:Maddimal#top|talk]]) 20:48, 28 January 2024 (UTC) |decline = See [[WP:GAB]] to understand how to write an appropriate unblock request. [[User:Yamla|Yamla]] ([[User talk:Yamla|talk]]) 20:59, 28 January 2024 (UTC)}}

== Commitment to Constructive Contribution ==

{{unblock reviewed |1=I understand the importance of following Wikipedia's guidelines to prevent disruptive edits. I noted discrepancies in the handling of content on the Kaftan page. There appears to be an exclusive emphasis on a specific origin, with lack of images in one section. I assure you that my intention was to contribute constructively. Moving forward, I am committed to adhering to Wikipedia's guidelines and making positive contributions to the platform while also prioritizing conflict resolution [[User:Maddimal|Maddimal]] ([[User talk:Maddimal#top|talk]]) 1:06 pm, Today (UTC−5) |decline = Please describe concisely and clearly how your edits merited a block, what you would do differently, and what constructive edits you would make. Please read [[WP:GAB|Wikipedia's Guide to appealing blocks for more information]]. [[User:Deepfriedokra|-- Deepfriedokra]] ([[User talk:Deepfriedokra|talk]]) 19:03, 29 January 2024 (UTC)}}
*You also have to address the assumption of bad faith (from the start) and the aspersions that you keep casting on me. Being a "new editor" doesn't explain such behaviour, if anything, it suggests something else. [[User:M.Bitton|M.Bitton]] ([[User talk:M.Bitton|talk]]) 18:22, 29 January 2024 (UTC)

== Constructive Contribution ==

{{unblock|reason=Selective scholarly sourcing in an article doesn't imply collusion or confirmation bias among all contributors. However, my removal of a piece of content lacked convincing evidence and was deemed disruptive. Additions like referencing a 1978 master's thesis from OSU or including a Christian medieval painting were considered irrelevant or original research.

As a new user, I made two successive edits without realizing I had received a warning about involvement in an edit war, disrupting the collaborative editing process. Moving forward, I understand the importance of seeking consensus before making edits to avoid exacerbating such situations.

To ensure constructive contributions, I will adhere to Wikipedia's guidelines. This means providing stronger justifications for edits, distinguishing between additions and deletions, rigorously sourcing information, avoiding edit conflicts, and fostering open communication. Constructive edits involve incorporating scholarly sourced information and participating in consensus-building discussions. My goal is to make positive contributions to Wikipedia.

== The Real Reason for Block and Constructive Contribution ==
{{unblock reviewed |1=Selective sourcing doesn't always imply bias, but my recent removal lacked strong evidence. As a new user, I made 2 successive edits without realizing I was warned about edit wars. I'll seek consensus, adhere to guidelines, provide stronger justifications, rigorously source information, avoid conflicts, and make constructive edits on Wikipedia to contribute positively. I suspect one reason for my indefinite block is pointing out an influential mistake in citing a source based on a faulty understanding of its translation, Here it is: (introducing the name "Kaftan" VS introducing the Kaftan dress) Wikipedia [[Kaftan|wiki/Kaftan]] says // introducing the Kaftan dress // (mistake): "According to [[Naima El Khatib Boujibar]], however, the kaftan might only have been introduced to Morocco by the [[Saadi dynasty|Saadi]] Sultan [[Abu Marwan Abd al-Malik I Saadi|Abd al-Malik]], who had lived in [[Algiers]] and [[Istanbul]].[[Kaftan#cite note-VM-41|[41]]]" However, The [https://islamicart.museumwnf.org/database_item.php?id=object;ISL;ma;Mus01_B;45;en&pageT=N [41 original]] cited source is in French and says // introducing the name "Kaftan" // (correct): "à l'origine, le nom de “caftan” est un mot persan adopté par les Ottomans et qui désignait le costume des empereurs. Il aurait été introduit au Maroc par le souverain saadien Abdelmalek qui avait vécu à Alger et à Istanbul (984-986 H / 1576-1578 J.-C.), où il l'aurait emprunté aux Turcs." @[[User:Daniel Case|User:Daniel_Case]] [[User:Maddimal|Maddimal]] ([[User talk:Maddimal#top|talk]]) 15:45, 31 January 2024 (UTC) |decline = Please only make one unblock request at a time.

== Edit warring looks like the ''real ''reason you were blocked ==

Please see our [[wp:ew|policy on edit warring]]. In the event of a [[WP:content dispute|content dispute]], editors are required to '''stop reverting''', [[WP:BRD|discuss]], and seek [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] among editors on the relevant talk page. If discussions reach an impasse, editors can then post a request for help at a relevant [[Wikipedia:Noticeboards|noticeboard]] or seek [[Wikipedia:Dispute resolution|dispute resolution]].

Points to ponder:
:Edit warring is wrong even if one is right.
:Any arguments in favor of one's preferred version should be made on the relevant talk page and not in an unblock appeal.
:Calling attention to the faults of others is never a successful strategy; one must address one's own behavior.

To be unblocked, you must affirm an understanding of all of this, and what not to do, and what to do when in a [[WP:content dispute|content dispute]]. Please tell us, in your own words, what it all means. This may not be the only problem with your edits, but it is prominent. (Also, [[WP:AGF|assuming bad faith]] and [[WP:casting aspersions]]. ) You have two open unblock requests which do not address the reasons for your block. Instead, they seem an attempt to justify your behavior. One unblock request is sufficient. You could remove the one and address the reasons for your block in the other. Please do read the [[WP:GAB|Guide to Appealing Blocks]]. Thanks, [[User:Deepfriedokra|-- Deepfriedokra]] ([[User talk:Deepfriedokra|talk]]) 18:17, 6 February 2024 (UTC)

Concerning [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Rank_of_a_partition&diff=524851278&oldid=524789379 this edit], please note that en-dashes rather than hyphens should be used in ranges of pages, years, etc. In mathematical notation, people frequently use too little spacing, writing, for example 2+3 instead of 2 + 3, but here there was too much spacing. For example, in expressions like 2 − 3, one puts a space before and after the minus sign, but when it's a unary rather than binary operation, it is standard to write −5 without a space between the minus sign and the 5. See [[WP:MOSMATH]].

:'''Notability not asserted; it says it's the largest '''known''' odd number ....'''

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be [[WP:DEL#REASON|deleted for any of several reasons]].

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your [[Help:edit summary|edit summary]] or on [[Talk:2719|the article's talk page]].

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed deletion process]], but other [[Wikipedia:deletion process|deletion process]]es exist. In particular, the [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|speedy deletion]] process can result in deletion without discussion, and [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion|articles for deletion]] allows discussion to reach [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] for deletion. — [[User:Arthur Rubin|Arthur Rubin]] [[User talk:Arthur Rubin|(talk)]] 11:10, 5 June 2014 (UTC)

:I'm also proposing that, if kept, it be moved to [[2719 (number)]]; it's the only number in {{cat|Integers}} less than 10 digits which is not tagged as "number". Please comment on that at [[Talk:2719]]. — [[User:Arthur Rubin|Arthur Rubin]] [[User talk:Arthur Rubin|(talk)]] 11:14, 5 June 2014 (UTC)

== Speedy deletion nomination of Maddalam of Palakkad ==

Hello Krishnachandranvn,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged [[Maddalam of Palakkad]] for deletion, because it seems to be [[Wikipedia:Promotion|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 '''[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title={{urlencode:Talk:Maddalam of Palakkad}}&action=edit&section=new&preload=Template:Hangon_preload&preloadtitle=This+page+should+not+be+speedy+deleted+because...+ contest this deletion]''', but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

The article [[Maddalam of Palakkad]] has been [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed for deletion]] because of the following concern:
:'''Does not meet [[WP:GNG]]. The only reference merely asserts that this product has been registered with the government of India. This does not necessarily constitute notability, but the article does not even assert that the subject is notable for any other reason.'''

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be [[WP:DEL#REASON|deleted for any of several reasons]].

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your [[Help:edit summary|edit summary]] or on [[{{TALKPAGENAME:Maddalam of Palakkad}}|the article's talk page]].

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed deletion process]], but other [[Wikipedia:deletion process|deletion process]]es exist. In particular, the [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|speedy deletion]] process can result in deletion without discussion, and [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion|articles for deletion]] allows discussion to reach [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] for deletion.

[[File:Seven 7 Days.svg|right|250px]]
Hello, thanks a lot for participating in [[:meta:CIS-A2K/Events/Geographical Indications in India Edit-a-thon|Geographical Indications in India Edit-a-thon]]. We understand that perhaps 7 days (i.e. 25 January to 31 January) were not sufficient to write on a topic like this, and/or you may need some more time to create/improve articles, so let's extend this event for a few more days. '''The edit-a-thon will continue till 10 February 2016''' and that means you have got 7 more days to create or expand articles (or imprpove the articles you have already created or expanded).

; Rules
The [[:meta:CIS-A2K/Events/Geographical_Indications_in_India_Edit-a-thon#Rules|rules]] remain unchanged. Please [[:meta:CIS-A2K/Events/Geographical_Indications_in_India_Edit-a-thon|report your created or expanded articles]].

; Prizes/Awards
A special barnstar will be given to all the participants who will create or expand articles during this edit-a-thon.

== Wikipedia and copyright ==
[[File:Control copyright icon.svg|30px|link=|alt=Control copyright icon]] Hello Krishnachandranvn, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to [[:Kuthampally dhoties and set mundu]] has had to be removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without [[Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission|permission]] from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.

*You can only copy/translate a ''small'' amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double [[quotation mark]]s (") and a cited source. You can read about this at [[Wikipedia:Non-free content]] in the sections on "text". See also [[Help:Referencing for beginners]], for how to cite sources here.
*Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information ''in your own words and structure'', in proper [[paraphrase]]. Following the source's words too closely can create [[derivative work|copyright problems]], so it is not permitted here; see [[Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing]]. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, [http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/619/01/ hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue].) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to [[Wikipedia:Verifiability|verify]] information and to demonstrate that the content is not [[Wikipedia:No original research|original research]].
*Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is [[Wikipedia:Copyrights]]. You may also want to review [[Wikipedia:Copy-paste]].
*If ''you'' own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you ''may'' be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See [[Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials]].
*In ''very rare cases'' (that is, for sources that are [[public domain]] or [[Wikipedia:FAQ/Copyright#Can I add something to Wikipedia that I got from somewhere else?|compatibly licensed]]), it ''may'' be possible to include greater portions of a source text. ''However'', please seek help at the [[Wikipedia:Help desk|help desk]] before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources ''may not'' be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you ''do'' confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see [[Wikipedia:Plagiarism]] for the steps you need to follow.
*Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you can, but please follow the steps in [[Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia]].

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocked]] from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.  — [[User:Diannaa|Diannaa]] 🍁 ([[User talk:Diannaa|talk]]) 01:44, 3 February 2016 (UTC)

[[File:Copyright-problem.svg|64px|left|alt=|link=]]
Thank you for uploading '''[[:File:Madhava sine tabe in Devanagari.JPG]]'''. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the [[copyright]] status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the [[:File:Madhava sine tabe in Devanagari.JPG|image description page]].

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a [[Wikipedia:Requests for undeletion|request for undeletion]] and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the '''[[WP:IUP#Adding images|image use policy]]''' to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a [{{fullurl:Special:Log|type=upload&user=Krishnachandranvn}} list of your uploads].

Thanks for partipating Wikipedia Asian Month last year, and I hope you enjoy it. Last year, more than 7,000 articles contribute to Wikipedia in 43 languages in Wikipedia Asian Month, making us one of the largest event on Wikipedia. We will organize this event again in upcoming November, and would like to invite you join us again.

This year, we are lowering down the standards that you only need to create 4 (Four) articles to receive a postcard (new design), and articles only need to be more than 3,000 bytes and 300 words. We are also improving our postcard sending process, e.g. making the postcards right now, and collecting the address after the event ends without waiting other languges.

Wikipedians who create the most articles on each Wikipedia will be honored as "Wikipedia Asian Ambassadors". We will send you both digital copy, and a paper copy of the Ambassador certificate.

You are obviously well versed in knowledge on the Indian state of Kerala but unfortunately Wikipedia is a neutral site and cannot have propaganda. The article you wrote must be brought to Wikipedia standards, I being an American with a lack of knowledge of Indian history and culture, do not want to edit it in chance that I mess up with the article.

Dear [[User:Dogblock|Dogblock]] ([[User talk:Dogblock|talk]]), I am no expert in Kerala Planning and I did not contribute anything to the article except that I added a new item to the "See also" section.

You have created recently this article and linked it in [[Gaussian elimination#See also]].

Hello! Last year, you signed up to participate in Wikipedia Asian Month (WAM) 2016 on the English Wikipedia. The event was an international success, with hundreds of editors creating thousands of articles on Asian topics across dozens of different language versions of Wikipedia.

I'd like to invite you to join us for '''[[Wikipedia:Wikipedia Asian Month|Wikipedia Asian Month 2017]]''', which once again lasts through the month of November. The goal is for users to create new articles on Asian-related content, each at least 3,000 bytes and 300 words in length. Editors who create at least four articles will receive a Wikipedia Asian Month postcard!

Also be sure to check out the [[:meta:Wikipedia Asian Month 2017/Asian Art|Wikipedia Asian Art Month]] affiliate event - creating articles on Asian art topics can get you a Metropolitan Museum of Art postcard!

If you're interested, please '''[[Wikipedia:Wikipedia Asian Month/Participants|sign up here]]''' for the English Wikipedia. If you are interested in also working on other language editions of Wikipedia, please [[:m:Wikipedia Asian Month 2017|visit the meta page]] to see other participating projects.

== [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|Proposed deletion]] of [[:She Taxi]] ==

The article [[:She Taxi]] has been [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed for deletion]] because of the following concern:
<blockquote>Poorly sourced, only a few brief mentions around the time the program started. Ultimately fails [[WP:GNG]].</blockquote>

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be [[WP:DEL#REASON|deleted for any of several reasons]].

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your [[Help:edit summary|edit summary]] or on [[Talk:She Taxi|the article's talk page]].

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed deletion process]], but other [[Wikipedia:deletion process|deletion process]]es exist. In particular, the [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|speedy deletion]] process can result in deletion without discussion, and [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion|articles for deletion]] allows discussion to reach [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] for deletion.

A tag has been placed on [[:Dishant Mayurbhai Pancholi]] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under [[WP:CSD#G4|section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a [[Wikipedia:Deletion debates|deletion discussion]], at [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dishant Mayurbhai Pancholi]]. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may '''contest the nomination''' by [[:Dishant Mayurbhai Pancholi|visiting the page]] and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with [[Wikipedia:List of policies|Wikipedia's policies and guidelines]]. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the {{Querylink|Special:Log|qs=type=delete&page=Dishant+Mayurbhai+Pancholi|deleting administrator}}, or if you have already done so, you can place a request [[WP:RFUD|here]].

You said that the new incarnation of the [[Dishant Mayurbhai Pancholi]] article shouldn't be deleted per [[WP:G4]] due to the subject winning the [[Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Prize for Science and Technology]]. However, this fact was already brought up in [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dishant Mayurbhai Pancholi]], so it can't be used as grounds to unilaterally ignore the result of that AfD. If you think the AfD outcome was wrong, you should first ask [[User:Tone]], and if that doesn't lead to a satisfactory outcome, then [[WP:DRV]].

A tag has been placed on [[:Ryuko Hira]] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under [[WP:CSD#G12|section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], because the page appears to be an unambiguous [[Wikipedia:Copyright violations|copyright infringement]]. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://business.rediff.com/slide-show/2010/aug/27/slide-show-1-the-richest-indians-in-other-countries.htm. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.

Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators '''will be [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocked from editing]]'''.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you ''must'' verify that externally by one of the processes explained at [[Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials]]. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see [[Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission]] for how you may obtain it.

This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay.

Your additions to [[:Kripa Shankar Shukla]] have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the [[public domain]] or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a [[WP:COMPLIC|suitably-free and compatible]] copyright license. (''To request such a release, see [[Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission]]''.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid [[copyright]] and [[plagiarism]] issues.

*You can only copy/translate a ''small'' amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double [[quotation mark]]s (") and cite the source using an [[Wikipedia:Inline citation|inline citation]]. You can read about this at [[Wikipedia:Non-free content]] in the sections on "text". See also [[Help:Referencing for beginners]], for how to cite sources here.{{#ifeq: | 1 |}}
*Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information ''in your own words and structure'', in proper [[paraphrase]]. Following the source's words too closely can create [[derivative work|copyright problems]], so it is not permitted here; see [[Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing]]. Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to [[Wikipedia:Verifiability|verify]] the information and to demonstrate that the content is not [[Wikipedia:No original research|original research]].{{#ifeq: | 2 |}}
*We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. [[Fair use]] images must meet all ten of the [[Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria|non-free content criteria]] in order to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. To be used on Wikipedia, all other images must be made available under a free and open copyright license that allows commercial and derivative reuse.
*If ''you'' own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you ''may'' be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, ''to the world'', into either the [[public domain]] (PD) or under a [[Wikipedia:FAQ/Copyright#Can I add something to Wikipedia that I got from somewhere else?|suitably-free and compatible]] copyright license. Please see [[Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials]].
*Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps described at [[Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia]]. See also [[Help:Translation#License requirements]].

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocked]] from editing. If you have any questions about this, please ask them here on this page, or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you.  – [[User:Isochrone|'''Isochrone''']] ([[User talk:Isochrone|T]]) 15:11, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

{{unblock reviewed|reason=I understand that Wikipedia takes copyright violations seriously and I completely and categorically endorse Wikipedia's policy on copyright violations. I have created more than 400 articles in Wikipedia on a variety of topics and I intend to continue contributing good quality articles to Wikipedia. My ranking as an editior, in terms of the number of articles created, is within the first 2000 ranks. By blocking me indefinitely from editing, Wikipedia is denying me an opportunity to support the cause that Wikipedia espouses so strongly, namely, creating the biggest encyclopedia ever created. I know all these are no excuses for committing copyright violations. If somebody can point out exactly what part of the article [[Sathyanarayana Beleri]] violates copyright violation, I am happy to edit the article to make it comply with the copyright policy of Wikipedia.

I regret my copyright violation and request the functionaries of Wikipedia to unblock me from editiong Wikipedia with immediate effect. [[User:Krishnachandranvn|Krishnachandranvn]] ([[User talk:Krishnachandranvn#top|talk]]) 23:17, 30 January 2024 (UTC)|decline=It's great that you agree with the policy on copyright- but you need to show us that you actually understand it. Copyright violations potentially put Wikipedia in legal jeopardy, so we must be convinced that you understand this policy. It doesn't matter if you created one article, 400, or if you are [[Jimmy Wales]] himself. Please tell us in your own words what copyright is, what Wikipedia's license is, and when/how copyrighted content may be used on Wikipedia. Your answers will help us determine if you should be unblocked. I am declining your request. [[User:331dot|331dot]] ([[User talk:331dot|talk]]) 10:12, 31 January 2024 (UTC) }}

{{unblock | reason=This is an honest and sincere request to revoke the indefinite block placed upon me "from editing for violating copyright policy by copying text or images into Wikipedia from another source without evidence of permission". The copyright violation occurred in respect of the article titled [[Sathyanarayana Beleri]]" created by me.

1. I understand that copying materials without permission, that is, violating copyrights, is a serious crime. It is not only a crime in a strictly legal sense but it is also morally and ethically repugnant. It inhibits progress of knowledge accumulation and demotivates real owners of intellectual property from pursuing intellectually creative work. It is a crime not only in the context of Wikipedia but also in the larger context of any scholarly publishing. It is a crime because the one who is copying is stealing the intellectual property that legally belongs to someone else and thereby is denying the other person his/her rightful place in the intellectual world.

2. I fully understand the impact and implications of copyright violations on the Wikipedia movement. Copyright violations by editors may put the entire movement in legal jeopardy and in deep legal trouble. I also understand that the Wikipedia cannot survive in its current form, where everybody can edit any article, without very strict vigil on unacceptable behavior like copyright violations. In fact, I thank God that Wikipedia movement is continuing to flourish thanks to the immense efforts and selfless services of those thousands of deeply committed volunteers. I want to see the movement continuing to flourish as long as the Sun and the Moon continue to shine. I am not only an editor of Wikipedia, I am also an avid reader of Wikipedia articles. My first choice to know more about any topic is and has always been Wikipedia. I have also supported Wikipedia in its fund-raising campaigns in my own humble way. I am mentioning this only to indicate that I am deeply committed to and interested in the continued survival and flourishing of Wikipedia in its current form.

3. As to my violation of Wikipedia's copyright policy with regard to the article titled "Sathyanarayana Beleri" I admit I made a mistake in not properly paraphrasing the content in the source referred to. I admit my mistake. It was my mistake. Perhaps it has something to do with the fact I am not a native speaker of the English language because of which my ability to paraphrase a paragraph in my own words may be below par. I know that this excuse is hollow. I mention only because it may convince you that whatever I have done was not mala fide and I was not trying in any way disruptive. Still I do admit that I have committed a mistake. I also admit that I have been warned several times before for such acts. I can only say sorry for that. I sincerely apologize for my misconduct. What I can say is that I was not being intentionally disruptive, I was not intentionally trying to put Wikipedia in trouble. In the previous times and also in the present context I had not even the slightest intention of being disruptive. I abhor even the thought of some Wikipedia editor being disruptive in the working of Wikipedia.

4. I request that I be given one more chance to be a proud editor of Wikipedia by revoking the indefinite block placed on me. I hereby give a solemn assurance that I will do everything possible, will do my best, to ensure that the articles I create are completely free of copyright violations in the future. It is further requested I be given one more chance to rejoin the legion of Wikipedia editors in the building up of the largest ever encyclopedia ever created. I am happy to point out that, towards this effort of creating the largest ever encyclopedia, I could contribute so far, more than 400 articles to Wikipedia and around 200 images to Wikipedia Commons.

5. Thank you for your patience in reading this far. Finally, I request once again that I be given one more chance to be a proud editor of Wikipedia by revoking the indefinite block placed on me from editing Wikipedia articles.

The above response shows that you understand what copyright is and why it's not okay to add copyright material to Wikipedia, but two of 331dot's questions remain unanswered:
#Tell us what Wikipedia's license is.
#Tell us under what circumstances it's okay to use copyright content on Wikipedia, and how you would go about doing so.

There's no need to add a new unblock request; just place your answer below. Thanks. — [[User:Diannaa|Diannaa]] ([[User talk:Diannaa|talk]]) 22:45, 8 February 2024 (UTC)

Hi @[[User:AmandaNP|AmandaNP]],

I recently saw your nomination of @[[User:Red-tailed hawk|Red-tailed hawk]] and was wondering if you could take a look at my page and see if I qualify. This would be extremely helpful. If you have any criticism, feedback, critiques, comments, etc. please let me know. I would really appreciate this. Please let me know as soon as you can.

Thank you,

== Your other username and old usernames on discussion messages ==

Hello Amanda,

As I changed my username from Breathinkeeps32 12 hours ago, did you change your name from DeltaQuad to AmandaNP (your main account) at some point? This is because on your old discussions, it still links to [[User:DeltaQuad]], which is an alt account but normally, they redirect to the new username. So basically on old discussions, the username does not change (but newer discussions will) so I still see my former username in existing discussions. Is that correct? [[User:JuniperChill|JuniperChill]] ([[User talk:JuniperChill|talk]]) 13:35, 25 January 2024 (UTC)

:Correct. -- [[User talk:AmandaNP|Amanda (she/her)]] 01:49, 26 January 2024 (UTC)
