Sanctions warning

I see you have protected Abhira tribe recently. I think Yaduvanshi ahir's (talk · contribs) will need a sanctions notification but I've forgotten how to do it! Can you oblige?

This is yet more evidence of my theory that editors of India articles whose usernames contain a caste name, the word "truth" or the word "history" should be blocked on sight! I know it will never happen but I can dream ... - Sitush (talk) 17:22, 14 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Sitush, my apologies for the delayed response. I had left a message earlier, and was intending to look up the complete list of DS alert templates as well. They are available here: Template:Ds/alert#Codes Regards, Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 18:05, 24 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

August 2021

August 2021 Please stop deleting the content. The content in the Memons (Kathiawar) wikipedia is well written details of the community that represents the Kathiawari Memons, this is something related to a community. Why you keep removing and just erasing the content that clearly clarifies the about that particular topic.

Salamun44

Hi! You've just blocked Salamun44 for block evasion. Who is the sockmaster here? – Uanfala (talk) 01:03, 19 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'd actually like to know, too. I just blocked ChampeonZekz as a sock of Salamun44 and tagged them both as if Salamun44 is the master, but if there is an earlier account, it'd be useful to sort out the tagging. Thanks.--Bbb23 (talk) 15:56, 21 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
This account was blocked as a WP:DUCK of SajidMir2, please see the comments at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/SajidMir2. Regards, Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 16:42, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks! --Bbb23 (talk) 16:43, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Yamaguchi先生 and Bbb23! Both ChampeonZekz and Salamun44, as well as Semonlee, still need to be properly tagged as suspected sockpuppets of SajidMir2, so they appear in Category:Suspected Wikipedia sockpuppets of SajidMir2. I don't know how to do this, and I'm not even sure if I can do so as a non-admin (?), so I'm asking you. Thanks! ☿ Apaugasma (talk ☉) 17:35, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you Apaugasma, these accounts should now be  Blocked and tagged. Regards, Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 17:57, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

2A02:C7F:1438:A300:0:0:0:0/64

I appreciate your support of taking care of one of the users who’s been vandalizing Pencilmation. However instead of blocking one user try doing this range 2A02:C7F:1438:A300:0:0:0:0/64 for 3 months just so they can stop.


Tiger Shroff

mr yamagutchi i do think you are mistaken because if you search the internet you will see that there is millions of articles and links that keeps talking that tiger shroff actually dubbed a hollywood movie in hindi and he did if u want me to insert an incitation specify which source you want me to use

Highest peak of eastern ghat

Please undo the deletion of other two names of the highest peak of eastern ghat including the most common one. It is not unsourced as it was hyperlinked with the another wikipedia article Aramakonda where height is also mentioned correctly 1680 m. Eastern Ghat does not pass through West Bengal - you may search google and see map even West Bengal is not mentioned in the main part of this article but wrongly written in the summary. So it is clear that the article is contradictory due to wrongly written West Bengal in the summary but not written rightly in the main article Poorva12303 (talk) 18:55, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It is Arma Konda - sorry fo mistake and corrected - highest peak of eastern ghat Poorva12303 (talk) 19:03, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

2a02:c7f:1438:a300::/64

I appreciate what you did with the block however you made a mistake by only having the range not edit on Almost Naked Animals and just Almost Naked. As a result the range is still block evading. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/2A02:C7F:1438:A300:0:0:0:0/64 One last thing to note, if the range is blocked from editing the pages your blocked it from doing then the user will have to go to other pages and the same problem will still go one.

Iraqi Armed Forces

Hello. I am deeply sorry to bother you and to take your time. I have one question. Could you do the same type of article protection to the Iraqi Armed Forces as you did at the Iraqi Army? That page is also under constant abuse of one permanent sock user ShkoDevAct (talk · contribs) and now I suspect that same user use IPs to edit, mostly to put back that sock content (many of that just unsourced, and some just pure vandalism).

Hello Deepfriedokra, thank you for contacting me. I believe this block to be in error, and have rescinded. Please see the note left on the user's talk page. Regards, Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 22:30, 3 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked

Hi @Yamaguchi先生:, Hope you are safe there. I recently to know that you had blocked this IP address for 14 days. I inform you that I have my own Username User:Fade258 in Wikipedia, So I am not that person who done that disrupting edit. At last, I didn't edit through Wifi where I used my personal SIM card data for this message. Hope you understand. Please reply as soon as possible.

draft:CharacterBuds

I appreciate the deletion of the Space Goof Humans draft. However there is another draft the range made and it is draft:CharacterBuds. This may need deletion too.

Holiest sites in Islam

Hello. You protected this page. In the section about Mecca, please remove the words "da Phishooks" as this is vandalism added by an IP. If you need proof, use Google translate and you will see the Arabic that follows it actually only says Bayt Allah (House of God). If more proof is neede please ask an Arabic user. 2A02:C7C:1018:6E00:DDE1:FB24:F5D7:5903 (talk) 00:33, 8 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Pratapaditya

Probably wise to install ECP under ARBIPA. See recent eds. TrangaBellam (talk) 17:59, 9 September 2021 (UTC) @Yamaguchi先生:I do not belong to either the caste or creed identity of Pratpaditya, It is very deliberate of TrangaBellam as she effectively reduced a page to an informed one which selectively quotes an author who is not an expert on Pratpaditya and there are many writters who have written about the multiple wars he fought. If neutrality and fairness is not on display by the senior users, then the incentive to be truthful decreases . I sincerely request you to return the page to a semi protected page as I am willing to give proper citations without deliberations or exagerrations.[reply]

Changed a /32 partial block to sitewide

Hello Yamaguchi. Per this sequence of events and a complaint at WP:AIV I found that that your partial block was not holding back the tide, so I extended it to sitewide, with the same expiry on December 8. If you think this is excessive, please adjust as you prefer. Also leaving a ping for the original blocker, User:NinjaRobotPirate. If you view the range contributions and search for the word 'current' you'll probably see that fewer than 20% of that range's edits are still top-of-trunk. Which suggests there is little collateral. (Regular editors have undone most of their changes). Thanks, EdJohnston (talk) 15:43, 20 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It looks good to me, thank you Ed for the notification. Regards, Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 21:21, 20 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Sir Your knowledge About Katras is totally negative, incomplete and does not provide the actual pictures about that place

Believe the suggestions given by me I can provide proper references about what I had written in that page u have completely removed the culture section, tourist spot and center of attraction schools that really exists in the vicinity of the place.

Hi @Yamaguchi . I have pasted a link from a food blogging website “petukshomogrow.online” that talks about the best restaurants in Kolkata,India that serves authentic bengali cuisine.

Changing of Population

I did change the population of some cities like Abbottabad and Haripur which was incorrect there in the list, There is Khalabat mentioned in the list but its the part of Haripur 3 to 4 km away which should fall under that city, Same is the case with Abbottabad. Look at the Pakistan Bureau of Statistics urban population, So i changed according to that census. RsM8195 (talk) 15:31, 12 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

About edit war

Dear Yamaguchi先生, I'm sure you've noticed that editing wars often occur in areas where you and I share a common interest. This area has not had any information added to it due to an editing war, and even important pages remain stubbed out. My suggestion is to remove the extended confirmed users rights of those who are in an edit war, and to do extended confirmed protection for pages that are in the edit war. Best regards, --Freetrashbox (talk) 21:32, 3 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Freetrashbox, thank you for this suggestion! I will take this into consideration when protecting articles due to ongoing edit disputes. Regards, Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 21:58, 3 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

As I see it, for articles belonging to a certain field on English Wikipedia, it is ultimately advantageous to use the latest version as his(her) preferred description. This is because the longer he keep the latest version of the article edited to his liking, the more likely it is that his preferred description will remain when the article is protected. Especially when the opponent is a non-confirmed user, the confirmed user will win if the article will be semi-protected. This is like promoting an editing war. In my opinion, it is effective to mechanically revert an article once and then protect it, instead of protecting it in the version where the editing battle occurred. And to show that the administrator does not endorse the reverted version, the summary should say that it was mechanically reverted due to an editing war. Then editors will try to refrain from hasty revert, hoping that the article will be fixed in their preferred edition. Of course, that alone won't solve the problem, but I think it's important to create a system that puts him at a disadvantage if he joins an editing war.--Freetrashbox (talk) 00:12, 5 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Administrators will no longer be autopatrolled

A recently closed Request for Comment (RFC) reached consensus to remove Autopatrolled from the administrator user group.

How we will see unregistered users

Hi!

You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.

When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.

Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.

If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.

We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.

Thank you. /Johan (WMF)

122.161.0.0/16

Going by the block log and CU log, there are a lot of socks on Special:Contributions/122.161.0.0/16. That said, it seems unlikely to me that you'd need to block the entire /16. From what I can tell, people tend to stay within a /20 or /21. There are some logged-in accounts that have made 150+ edits over the course of a month, all within the same /20. If you blocked individual /20s, that would probably be better. You should also consider changing the block reason to {{rangeblock}} so that people get more relevant information about appealing range blocks. Newer users in particular tend to be very confused by range blocks. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 18:58, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you NinjaRobotPirate. Will continue to monitor and evaluate the traffic originating from this subnet. Regards, Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 20:57, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Disruptive editor edit-warting

User:Ghilji.Khan has been removing sourced info. Seems that he doesn't like I added the part that Lodi dynasty of Multan were misidentified as Afghans when their ancestors were Arabs. He's been warned multiple times, reverted multiple times. Refuses to do anytging besides edit-war. I'm messaging you in case he does it again. A temporary ban may be necessary.

IPs slipped through rangeblock

@Yamaguchi先生: It looks like some edits from long term abuser and spammer 2409:4064:0:0:0:0:0:0/32 have slipped through the rangeblock you placed back on 15 February. The newest edits are to user talk pages and contain the same spammy material. They also contain bad unblock requests, which have all been declined. Could you revoke talk page access? Thank you. 2601:647:5800:1A1F:1D99:1D92:284A:9F7D (talk) 04:45, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
