Charles Gonthier
An edit you made to this page a number of years ago, which remains active, included wikifying a link to Georges Gonthier, the father of Charles Gonthier. Unfortunately your link appears to actually point to Georges Gonthier, the mathematician, who was born in the 1960's and is definitely not old enough to have been the father of Charles Gonthier. May I ask that you make a suitable correction to the page if you deem it appropriate? Ordinarily this is a change I would make myself but because I know Georges Gonthier, the mathematician, personally I do not consider it appropriate for me to make this change. Dash77 (talk) 00:50, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for requesting this in the way that you did! I have removed the incorrect wiklink. Best wishes, Paul Erik (talk)(contribs) 02:23, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for the prompt update! Dash77 (talk) 23:00, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of User:Charliesouza/Charlie Souza
A tag has been placed on your user page, User:Charliesouza/Charlie Souza, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be advertising which only promotes or publicises someone or something. Promotional editing of any kind is not permitted, whether it be promotion of a person, company, product, group, service, belief, or anything else. This is a violation of our policies regarding acceptable use of user pages — user pages are intended for active editors of Wikipedia to communicate with one another as part of the process of creating encyclopedic content, and should not be mistaken for free webhosting resources or advertising space. Please read the guidelines on spam, the guidelines on user pages, and, especially, our FAQ for Organizations.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by 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'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 deleting administrator.

News and updates for administrators from the past month (March 2024).
- An RfC is open to convert all current and future community discretionary sanctions to (community designated) contentious topics procedure.
- The Toolforge Grid Engine services have been shut down after the final migration process from Grid Engine to Kubernetes. (T313405)

Warning after revert
Hello Dearest admin,
I saw you reverted on Colin Jost without warning the new user. Trying to welcome the new user, I saw his contribs and just drove-by to tell you. They may be a new editor that don't know some things here on Wikipedia. The message of revert is not enough. I hope this sets as a reminder (as I also know there are many works you have to cover). Thanks and keep doing good as you always have done! Safari ScribeEdits! Talk! 01:56, 5 April 2024 (UTC)
- Hello, User:SafariScribe. Thank you for the reminder, and thanks as well for adding a welcome message to the new user. If I might offer one piece of feedback to you: I would not have made the suggestion to the new editor that Jost's height might be added to his infobox. We don't do that unless the person is notable for their height, or if it is relevant, such as if they are a sportsperson. Best wishes, Paul Erik (talk)(contribs) 02:15, 5 April 2024 (UTC)
- Welp, I understand. Thanks for that. I am just making sure the new users are welcomed like any other editors, since most of the vandals at some point are seen in users not welcomed with links to editing. Thanks though! Safari ScribeEdits! Talk! 02:19, 5 April 2024 (UTC)
Administrators' newsletter – May 2024
News and updates for administrators from the past month (April 2024).
- Phase I of the 2024 requests for adminship review has concluded. Several proposals have passed outright and will proceed to implementation, including creating a discussion-only period (3b) and administrator elections (13) on a trial basis. Other successful proposals, such as creating a reminder of civility norms (2), will undergo further refinement in Phase II. Proposals passed on a trial basis will be discussed in Phase II, after their trials conclude. Further details on specific proposals can be found in the full report.
- Partial action blocks are now in effect on the English Wikipedia. This means that administrators have the ability to restrict users from certain actions, including uploading files, moving pages and files, creating new pages, and sending thanks. T280531
- The arbitration case Conflict of interest management has been closed.
- This may be a good time to reach out to potential nominees to ask if they would consider an RfA.
- A New Pages Patrol backlog drive is happening in May 2024 to reduce the number of unreviewed articles in the new pages feed. Currently, there is a backlog of over 15,000 articles awaiting review. Sign up here to participate!
- Voting for the Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee (U4C) election is open until 9 May 2024. Read the voting page on Meta-Wiki and cast your vote here!
Hong Chau
I just reverted here edits that seem like the ones you reverted. What is the main account? Do we need to request semi-protection for Hong Chau? Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 13:54, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
- Hi. Thanks, Erik. Yes, that's User:Newboy78641 evading their block. Semi-protection is probably a good idea. Paul Erik (talk)(contribs) 15:31, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
Article for Sam Feldman
Hi Paul Erik, I work for Canadian music executive Sam Feldman, and I'm trying to create a Wikipedia article for him. I see that you are part of WP:WikiProject Canadian music, and I'm hoping that you will take a look at the draft I have posted here. Would you consider moving it to main space?
Thank you, Sarah for SF (talk) 17:24, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
- Hi Sarah for SF. I won't have the time needed to review your draft any time soon; my apologies. Paul Erik (talk)(contribs) 01:30, 31 May 2024 (UTC)

Jamie Campbell Bower
I see someone is always changing the photo to a drawing one, and I was wondering if the page could be blocked to edit the page like they do for some pages? Veganpurplefox (talk) 16:50, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
- Hi Veganpurplefox. One user was blocked for that edit warring, and I added a warning to the IP who also changed the picture yesterday. I would wait, but if the disruption continues, yes, we could request page protection at WP:RFPPI. For more information, see Wikipedia:Protection policy. Paul Erik (talk)(contribs) 22:00, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
- Ok good! Veganpurplefox (talk) 22:03, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
