Avianca Brasil

Hello Yaris678, I received the information that you protected the page Avianca Brasil S.A. I wanted to move it to Avianca Brasil. Avianca Brasil is only a brand and not a limited company. The S.A. refers to the company that owns the airline, OceanAir Linhas Aéreas S.A. Please move the page to the correct denomination. Thank you very much, greetings --EBAQ (talk) 13:55, 2 March 2021 (UTC)

Hi @EBAQ: It is only semi-protected. You should be autoconfirmed, so you should be able to move the article yourself. Yaris678 (talk) 15:27, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
Hi @Yaris678: Thank you for your prompt reply. I don't think I can do that because the Avianca Brasil page already exists as a redirect page. I think only people with more authority can do that. Nevertheless, thank you very much and all the best. EBAQ (talk) 03:00, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
Hi @EBAQ: I see. It is a redirect over an existing page with an edit history. I have made the move for you. If you want to request similar moves in future, you can post a message at WP:RM. Yaris678 (talk) 23:47, 4 March 2021 (UTC)

Administrators will no longer be autopatrolled

A recently closed Request for Comment (RFC) reached consensus to remove Autopatrolled from the administrator user group. You may, similarly as with Edit Filter Manager, choose to self-assign this permission to yourself. This will be implemented the week of December 13th, but if you wish to self-assign you may do so now. To find out when the change has gone live or if you have any questions please visit the Administrator's Noticeboard. 20:07, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

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)

New administrator activity requirement

The administrator policy has been updated with new activity requirements following a successful Request for Comment.

Beginning January 1, 2023, administrators who meet one or both of the following criteria may be desysopped for inactivity if they have:

  1. Made neither edits nor administrative actions for at least a 12-month period OR
  2. Made fewer than 100 edits over a 60-month period

Administrators at risk for being desysopped under these criteria will continue to be notified ahead of time. Thank you for your continued work.

Question

How are you here if cant see posted links?! There are some of such people, always sad to find. At least try to stay out of much unrelated topics, if only reverting. 78.3.52.72 (talk) 18:41, 19 May 2022 (UTC)

Sorry. You're right. I didn't see the link you put in your edit summary.
Telling people to stay out of things isn't going to work on Wikipedia, but yes, I should have seen that link.

Hoping to lift one of your blocks

A user has asked that we lift the block on 23.252.203.216. Checkuser privacy policy prohibits me from going into much detail here, but please note that I see no overlap with the editor in question and the editor you were targeting with the original block in 2019. Looks like they've moved on. Checkuser data is never certain, of course, but this particular editor has been editing well from other IP addresses. Any objections to me lifting this block? --Yamla (talk) 18:25, 23 June 2022 (UTC)

Go ahead. Might be an idea to check again after a bit to make sure nothing dodgy is happening, but it makes sense to undo the block. Yaris678 (talk) 18:09, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
Thanks, Yaris! --Yamla (talk) 19:34, 24 June 2022 (UTC)

RexxS

Do you know anything about what's going on with RexxS at this moment - this user I can see has not edited any Wikimedia projects since late 2021 and there were plenty of people concluded a couple of days ago that the Wikimedian User:Anthony Appleyard was "no longer with us". At this moment I have not found any clues as to what really happened so I assume that user could be on a long wikibreak or has retired but the user has not admitted to either of those on the talk page. Iggy (Swan) (Contribs) 11:10, 8 July 2022 (UTC)

I believe he is on an extended wikibreak. I know someone who met him last month. Yaris678 (talk) 11:31, 8 July 2022 (UTC)

Max Mayer (engineer) moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Max Mayer (engineer), is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more in-depth coverage about the subject itself, with citations from reliable, independent sources in order to show it meets WP:GNG. It should have at least three. And please remember that interviews, as primary sources, do not count towards GNG.(?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.Onel5969 TT me 12:58, 25 January 2023 (UTC)

@Onel5969, please explain. The article cites two reliable, independent sources, both of which discuss Mayer. Yaris678 (talk) 12:22, 27 January 2023 (UTC)
Well, I can't access the one document with the page number provided. A search of the book on Google Books does reveal that they get 4 mentions, two of which (pp 13 and 46) are more than just simple mentions, but neither appears to be in-depth coverage. The second source, once you download and search the pdf, reveals a short, half-paragraph mention of Mayer. Neither is truly in-depth coverage. Hope this helps. Onel5969 TT me 13:01, 27 January 2023 (UTC)
WP:GNG uses the phrase "significant coverage", rather than "in-depth coverage". It says
"Significant coverage" addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content. Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material.
  • The book-length history of IBM by Robert Sobel is plainly non-trivial coverage of IBM.
  • Martin Walker's statement, in a newspaper article about Bill Clinton, that "In high school, he was part of a jazz band called Three Blind Mice" is plainly a trivial mention of that band.
These examples obviously leaves a fairly wide margin, between a single sentence and a whole book, where judgement must be applied.
The coverage is enough that the article does not require original research, which seems to be the main point.
A search of Mayer within Safety Factors and Reliability: Friends or foes? (ref 2) in Google Books gives 10 hits.
"p. 272. With biographical information on Mayer." is from the Google translation of the original German article. Page 272 is not in Google Books, but Page 273 is, and you can see that it has the second half of the biography, ending
Bolotin (1965) writes "The works of M. Mayer, N. F. Khotsialov and N.S. Streletckii were substantially the first works in the domain of reliability theory. A number of question of reliability theory were first formulated and solved in these works, a circumstance which merits being noticed in modern publications on reliability theory."
M. Mayer passed away on July 29, 1967 in Starnberg.
The biography must be about 1 page long. This coverage seems significant to me.
