Bison
I will not nitpick details any more, but I am going to say only this.
I should not have replaced bison with bisons, as "bison" is an accepted plural word for bison and I have only seen this recently.
Bison and bisons are both correct and this is confirmed in several dictionaries.
Your Archive 55
Not sure what the mischief on your archive 55 is about. User talk:Tide rolls/Archive 55 (edit | subject | history | links | watch | logs) Cheers Jim1138 (talk) 05:28, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
- Thanks for the heads up, @Jim1138:. I saw the explanation on your user talk. If it goes no further then all is well. Tiderolls 12:38, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
Now someone's deleting from User talk:Tide rolls/Archive 56 (edit | subject | history | links | watch | logs) and just deleted from 55... Jim1138 (talk) 04:08, 17 June 2017 (UTC)
Both 55 and 56 are now semi-indeffed. Jim1138 (talk) 00:34, 19 June 2017 (UTC)

Hee Hee Hee Hee Hee! Ah Yik Wong.
And Please! Don't give names. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AhmadFauzi (talk • contribs) 12:37, 19 June 2017 (UTC)
Unfortunately
I think that was your only choice. Thanks! Now normally we would probably revert to 'last stable version'; in this case, I think that that's... November last year! — O Fortuna semper crescis, aut decrescis 16:23, 28 June 2017 (UTC)
- @Fortuna Imperatrix Mundi:I agree that the article presents problems. There has been input by other editors on the talk page, though. Perhaps you could provoke interest in resuming some method
offor addressing the situation. Tiderolls 17:10, 28 June 2017 (UTC)- A little out of my comfort zone I'm afraid :D but perhaps it was more in the nature of a dare...? Ah-ha... — fortunavelut luna 17:13, 29 June 2017 (UTC)
Administrators' newsletter – July 2017
News and updates for administrators from the past month (June 2017).
- The RFC discussion regarding WP:OUTING and WMF essay about paid editing and outing (see more at the ArbCom noticeboard archives) is now archived. Milieus #3 and #4 received support; so did concrete proposal #1.
- Fuzzy search will soon be added to Special:Undelete, allowing administrators to search for deleted page titles with results similar to the search query. You can test this by adding
?fuzzy=1
to the URL, as with Special:Undelete?fuzzy=1. Currently the search only finds pages that exactly match the search term. - A new bot will automatically revision delete unused file versions from files in Category:Non-free files with orphaned versions more than 7 days old.
- Fuzzy search will soon be added to Special:Undelete, allowing administrators to search for deleted page titles with results similar to the search query. You can test this by adding
- A newly revamped database report can help identify users who may be eligible to be autopatrolled.
- A potentially compromised account from 2001–2002 attempted to request resysop. Please practice appropriate account security by using a unique password for Wikipedia, and consider enabling two-factor authentication. Currently around 17% of admins have enabled 2FA, up from 16% in February 2017.
- Did you know: On 29 June 2017, there were 1,261 administrators on the English Wikipedia – the exact number of administrators as there were ten years ago on 29 June 2007. Since that time, the English Wikipedia has grown from 1.85 million articles to over 5.43 million.
Administrators' newsletter – August 2017
News and updates for administrators from the past month (July 2017).
- Anarchyte • GeneralizationsAreBad • Cullen328 (first RfA to reach WP:300)
- Cprompt • Rockpocket • Rambo's Revenge • Animum • TexasAndroid • Chuck SMITH • MikeLynch • Crazytales • Ad Orientem
- Following a series of discussions around new pages patrol, the WMF is helping implement a controlled autoconfirmed article creation trial as a research experiment, similar to the one proposed in 2011. You can learn more about the research plan at meta:Research:Autoconfirmed article creation trial. The exact start date of the experiment has yet to be determined.
- A new speedy deletion criterion, regarding articles created as a result undisclosed paid editing, is currently being discussed (permalink).
- An RfC (permalink) is currently open that proposes expanding WP:G13 to include all drafts, even if they weren't submitted through Articles for Creation.
- LoginNotify should soon be deployed to the English Wikipedia. This will notify users when there are suspicious login attempts on their account.
- The new version of XTools is nearing an official release. This suite of tools includes administrator statistics, an improved edit counter, among other tools that may benefit administrators. You can report issues on Phabricator and provide general feedback at mw:Talk:XTools.
Hey
Are you feeling it? Apparently we have depth. Drmies (talk) 02:31, 24 August 2017 (UTC)
- It's gonna be a different look, professor, to be sure. Minkah's back (bless his heart), and Hurts and Scarbrough should be able to slice and dice. I'm sorry...I miss #22 and #56. Phreaking Ho-meric.<---it's a The Quiet Man reference. A bit before your time but ya can't beat the Fitzgerald brothers...and John Ford's brother has a cameo. Tiderolls 12:56, 24 August 2017 (UTC)
Administrators' newsletter – September 2017
News and updates for administrators from the past month (August 2017).
- Nakon • Scott
- Sverdrup • Thespian • Elockid • James086 • Ffirehorse • Celestianpower • Boing! said Zebedee
- ACTRIAL, a research experiment that restricts article creation to autoconfirmed users, will begin on September 7. It will run for six months. You can learn more about the research specifics at meta:Research:Autoconfirmed article creation trial, while Wikipedia talk:Autoconfirmed article creation trial is probably the best venue for general discussion.
- Following an RfC, WP:G13 speedy deletion criterion now applies to any page in the draftspace that has not been edited in six months. There is a bot-generated report, updated daily, to help identify potentially qualifying drafts that have not been submitted through articles for creation.
- You will now get a notification when someone tries to log in to your account and fails. If they try from a device that has logged into your account before, you will be notified after five failed attempts. You can also set in your preferences to get an email when someone logs in to your account from a new device or IP address, which may be encouraged for admins and accounts with sensitive permissions.
- Syntax highlighting is now available as a beta feature (more info). This may assist administrators and template editors when dealing with intricate syntax of high-risk templates and system messages.
- In your notification preferences, you can now block specific users from pinging you. This functionality will soon be available for Special:EmailUser as well.
- Applications for CheckUser and Oversight are being accepted by the Arbitration Committee until September 12. Community discussion of the candidates will begin on September 18.
I am not calling an experienced editor an vandal. I only did that to Jim1138 (talk) because he is only an online fraud and vandalises many people's edits like mine's. You really deserve a barnstar for trying to do the right thing. Can we be friends?Thechinesekid (talk) 14:04, 2 September 2017 (UTC)
A barnstar for you!
The Anti-Vandalism Barnstar | |
Here's your barnstar for doing the right thing. If you want to help me, please delete Jim1138's account if you can. He is making a lot of trouble for us so far. Thechinesekid (talk) 14:08, 2 September 2017 (UTC) |
A cheeseburger for you!
I made you some lunch for the day. This cheeseburger is made by my heart and you deserve it as my friend. Thechinesekid (talk) 14:11, 2 September 2017 (UTC) |
RTR
That could have gone a bit better, but it could have gone a lot worse. Defense was good, and OL showed promise, though I'm sure we all want to see domination from the start. But the first W is there. Take it easy Tide--drop on by in your state capitol one of these days.
- I guess I missed you on your many trips to the heart of Dixie. Ah well. What do you think? Are we going to give up a TD on this drive? Are we going to put some pressure on the QB or what? Is the taco meat I'm making too spicy? After how many does tequila become a bad thing? Is there any use to Boy Scoutism at all? Questions, questions, Tide rolls, and you're not answering any. Drmies (talk) 00:13, 17 September 2017 (UTC)
- Dude come on. Drmies (talk) 00:15, 17 September 2017 (UTC)
- Hurts runs like football is a fun game.
Woohoo almost got Ridley... ! Drmies (talk) 00:20, 17 September 2017 (UTC)
