ANI close for TenPoundHammer

Hello Beeblebrox, by closing that ANI discussion on TenPoundHammer, you did not render a decision for Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Another TPH Deletion Issue, where I believe the support : oppose was 20:1. May I know what is the reason a decision was not made in accordance to the community's wishes? starship.paint (exalt) 09:18, 20 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

There were three threads open on issues that directly led into the current arbcom case noted in the close. As all three issues were escalated to the committee, it seemed unhelpful to leave these open concurrently, and I closed them all in the exact same manner. To be abundantly clear I did this in my capacity as a n individual admin, it is not an arbcom action and if there are serious objections it can be re-opened. Beeblebrox (talk) 20:12, 20 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
You know what, give me a moment and I'll review that subsection. This was basically a procedural close, because no admin had actioned any of it and it had been escalated, but it may be worth reconsidering this aspect of it. Beeblebrox (talk) 20:16, 20 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Ok,  Done. Upon further review there was an extremely clear result in that particular subsection, I've re-closed it, informed TPH of the result, and logged it at WP:RESTRICT. Beeblebrox (talk) 20:49, 20 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you, Beeblebrox. starship.paint (exalt) 12:46, 21 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Canadian Institute of Actuaries

Hi Beeblebrox. Since you've already been helping out Jenna CIA-ICA, perhaps you wouldn't mind taking a look at her "edit request" at Talk:Canadian Institute of Actuaries#Changes_requested_2. She didn't use {{Edit request}} which means her request may go unnoticed by those who typically help with COI-related edit request. FWIW, I added {{COI}} to the article because her May 13 expansion of the article probably should've in itself been an edit request per se, and thus should've been given a closer look before being added to the article. I did ask about the article at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Business#Canadian Institute of Actuaries and Wikipedia talk:Canadian Wikipedians' notice board#Canadian Institute of Actuaries after tagging it to try and get others involved, but perhaps you wouldn't mind also taking a look. If there's no problem with the content, feel free to remove the template; however, further major expansions should probably be proposed on the article talk page first to give others a chance to assess them before they end up in the article. -- Marchjuly (talk) 21:47, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Accounts associated with Big Aryeh Gh

Thanks for blocking Big Ayeh. There are two other accounts with overlapping topic areas and name similarities that I am certain are the same person: Big Aryeh Gh (oldest) and Big Ayeh Gh. Both are stale but I wonder if it's worth blocking them both too, should this person be tempted to use one or both as sockpuppets? --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 22:24, 8 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like as of a few hours ago, neither of them are stale anymore, they are clearly evading the block, so that makes this real easy. Beeblebrox (talk) 15:55, 10 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Cryptobros

This meatball came to IRC to threaten us too. I still can't even figure out what he's trying to say he even owns much less what legal authority he thinks he has. 😂 PRAXIDICAE🌈 18:28, 10 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm pretty sure the answer is "blockchain". Beeblebrox (talk) 00:19, 12 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Personal attack

The user made personal attacks against me first. Are you going to warn them too? LittleJerry (talk) 17:48, 17 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

 Done, not that it excuses your attacks in the slightest, two wrongs don't make a right, we teach that to small children so it is reasonable to expect that people editing an encyclopedia understand it as well. --Beeblebrox (talk) 17:52, 17 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you and I apologize. I agree I should have reported it instead. It won't happen again. LittleJerry (talk) 17:53, 17 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]


Admin Abuse

Please tell user @Cullen328: to stay in their lane. You had already issued me a warning on the above LittleJerry and the issue was resolved. Cullen328 then proceeds to issue a second warning, for no reason and then allow LittleJerry to continue the argument on Cullen328's talk page. Been a member for 12 years, this has never been an issue before. The warning from you was sufficient. The warning from Cullen328 was not needed and neither was his harassment or subsequent bullying after I pointed this out to them. I don't know if there is an admin review for removal but Cullen328 belongs in it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jakobees (talk • contribs)

I won't be doing any such thing. You chose to remove the warning I left, so he simply did not see it. Since your talk page has 40+ threads on it, it was not unreasonable to assume it had not been archived recently and somehow you hadn't been warned for your comments. If you want to keep escalating this you are free to take it to WP: ANI, but you will probably need to keep an eye out for curved flying sticks if you do. --Beeblebrox (talk) 15:49, 19 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Fifteenth anniversary on Wikipedia!


Invitation to join the Fifteen Year Society

Dear Just Step Sideways,

I'd like to extend a cordial invitation to you to join the Fifteen Year Society, an informal group for editors who've been participating in the Wikipedia project for fifteen years or more. ​

Best regards, Chris Troutman (talk) 12:50, 21 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

 Done. Beeblebrox (talk) 19:21, 21 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Schnikes, y'all are old. Tiderolls 17:55, 22 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm fairly certain my first edits were made over a landline connection. Seriously. Beeblebrox (talk) 18:01, 22 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

New user with similar name

Hello Beeblebrox - I just want you to be aware that a newly registered editor has taken the name ZaphodBeeblebrox2 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log).Blue Riband► 13:35, 26 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It's sufficiently distinct that I wouldn't worry about it, but thanks for letting me know. I actually had to WP:USURP this username, for a while I was "Beeblbrox". Beeblebrox (talk) 20:06, 26 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

removed Anthony Appleyard (deceased) • Capitalistroadster • Samsara

Guideline and policy news

  • An RfC has been closed with consensus to add javascript that will show edit notices for editors editing via a mobile device. This only works for users using a mobile browser, so iOS app editors will still not be able to see edit notices.
  • An RfC has been closed with the consensus that train stations are not inherently notable.

Technical news

  • The Wikimania 2022 Hackathon will take place virtually from 11 August to 14 August.
  • Administrators will now see links on user pages for "Change block" and "Unblock user" instead of just "Block user" if the user is already blocked. (T308570)

Arbitration

  • The arbitration case request Geschichte has been automatically closed after a 3 month suspension of the case.

Miscellaneous

  • You can vote for candidates in the 2022 Board of Trustees elections from 16 August to 30 August. Two community elected seats are up for election.
  • Wikimania 2022 is taking place virtually from 11 August to 14 August. The schedule for wikimania is listed here. There are also a number of in-person events associated with Wikimania around the world.
