Re ITN football

[edit]

I am not arguing with you about your decision in any way, but I was wondering if you could provide a more detailed explanation of your weighing of arguments in making your decision. If you don't wish to, no need to reply back, but either way I thank you for your time. 331dot (talk) 14:56, 13 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I was just pointing out that the two sides have so diametral positions that we will not get to a consensus. That is all ... Trying to save everyone some time ;) --Tone 15:01, 13 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I understand, if disappointed(not with you in any way, just the result). Again, thank you. 331dot (talk) 15:05, 13 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Marco Polo

[edit]

Hello Tone, thank you for your valuable contribution. As you noticed, there is a potential edit war starting on Marco Polo. The current version of the article is the result of a consensus found after a long discussion (I checked in the archives, you participated), so any significant change should be first discussed in the talk page. Let's hope things will settle down. Silvio1973 (talk) 12:41, 2 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Silvio1973: please answer and constructively continue the discussion so we can end it, as you started it on almost null basis. There's still no single word from your side what makes those edits "disruptive". Also, would like to see the link to the "consensus" in the archives by which you justify that "any significant change should be first discussed in the talk page".--Crovata (talk) 17:00, 2 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Crovata:, I am trying to discuss with you. But this is astronomically difficult. In understand now why you have been blocked so far so many times. --Silvio1973 (talk) 09:17, 7 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Silvio1973: You're all the time intentionally ignoring the topic of the discussion you started. About the revision you reverted you did not say a single word beside calling it disruptive. There was no input on any issue by which you justify the revert of sourced information (more than 7,000 bytes). Now you even edited the article without the consensus from my part, and you knew very well what was my stand on the matter. You even said "if you have a better proposal go ahead" - I did - and again you're ignoring me. I am not happy to say it, but you're an obvious case of WP:OWNBEHAVIOR. What's even worse, in your defense of your own mess up you're now mentioning my block log. How you dare playing on such a low card, without even knowing why blocks were made. In all those cases was editing for the good of Wikipedia. In all those cases I was right, and got blocked due to the other part manipulation. Other time don't go so low.--Crovata (talk) 15:10, 7 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Adam Hewko

[edit]

The article Adam Hewko has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Article has no references or sources cannot find any citations on Google for Hewko.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Extended confirmed protection

[edit]

Hello, Tone. This message is intended to notify administrators of important changes to the protection policy.

Extended confirmed protection (also known as "30/500 protection") is a new level of page protection that only allows edits from accounts at least 30 days old and with 500 edits. The automatically assigned "extended confirmed" user right was created for this purpose. The protection level was created following this community discussion with the primary intention of enforcing various arbitration remedies that prohibited editors under the "30 days/500 edits" threshold to edit certain topic areas.

In July and August 2016, a request for comment established consensus for community use of the new protection level. Administrators are authorized to apply extended confirmed protection to combat any form of disruption (e.g. vandalism, sock puppetry, edit warring, etc.) on any topic, subject to the following conditions:

  • Extended confirmed protection may only be used in cases where semi-protection has proven ineffective. It should not be used as a first resort.
  • A bot will post a notification at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard of each use. MusikBot currently does this by updating a report, which is transcluded onto the noticeboard.

Please review the protection policy carefully before using this new level of protection on pages. Thank you.
This message was sent to the administrators' mass message list. To opt-out of future messages, please remove yourself from the list. 17:49, 23 September 2016 (UTC)

Edvard Antosiewicz date of death

[edit]

I would like to correct the date of death for Edvard Antosiewicz. It is actually January 4, 1961, as confirmed by his Certificate of Death, Arkansas Department of Health, Vital Records Section, Registration District 529, Certificate Number 196100862. I have a certified copy of this certificate, if that helps. I've never done any Wikipedia editing, so I wasn't sure how to make the changes with the correct citation. 76.125.87.32 (talk) 18:52, 27 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! Hm, the sportsreference source actually also says 1961. Must be a typo in the other source. Is that certificate somewhere online so that we can reference it? Tell me the link and I can show you how to cite it properly :) --Tone 18:59, 27 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Unfortunately, I don't have a link. I ordered the death certificate from the Arkansas Department of Health, so the certified copy is in my possession. The Arkansas Department of Health web site for ordering the certificate online shows his death date, as does his memorial on Find A Grave. I would consider both of those as secondary sources, though.76.125.87.32 (talk) 19:30, 27 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Well, if secondary sources are available, that's still better than nothing ;) --Tone 06:11, 29 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Back in 2007 or 2008 Slovenia was once a task force of Wp:Europe, I was the one who set it up as an independent project :-) Well if you and any of the others I fondly remember from Wp:Slovenia ever do any articles would be great to see that Slovene flag on the Europe challenge page!♦ Dr. Blofeld 19:06, 7 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Two-Factor Authentication now available for admins

[edit]

Hello,

Please note that TOTP based two-factor authentication is now available for all administrators. In light of the recent compromised accounts, you are encouraged to add this additional layer of security to your account. It may be enabled on your preferences page in the "User profile" tab under the "Basic information" section. For basic instructions on how to enable two-factor authentication, please see the developing help page for additional information. Important: Be sure to record the two-factor authentication key and the single use keys. If you lose your two factor authentication and do not have the keys, it's possible that your account will not be recoverable. Furthermore, you are encouraged to utilize a unique password and two-factor authentication for the email account associated with your Wikimedia account. This measure will assist in safeguarding your account from malicious password resets. Comments, questions, and concerns may be directed to the thread on the administrators' noticeboard.

A new user right for New Page Patrollers

[edit]

Hi Tone.

A new user group, New Page Reviewer, has been created in a move to greatly improve the standard of new page patrolling. The user right can be granted by any admin at PERM. It is highly recommended that admins look beyond the simple numerical threshold and satisfy themselves that the candidates have the required skills of communication and an advanced knowledge of notability and deletion. Admins are automatically included in this user right.

It is anticipated that this user right will significantly reduce the work load of admins who patrol the performance of the patrollers. However,due to the complexity of the rollout, some rights may have been accorded that may later need to be withdrawn, so some help will still be needed to some extent when discovering wrongly applied deletion tags or inappropriate pages that escape the attention of less experienced reviewers, and above all, hasty and bitey tagging for maintenance. User warnings are available here but very often a friendly custom message works best.

If you have any questions about this user right, don't hesitate to join us at WT:NPR. (Sent to all admins).MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:48, 15 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
