Stewards' noticeboard

How do I restore this page?
User:DMBFFF/Dekadays beginning from winter solstice

I created it several months ago—long before June 2020.

Here's Stewards' noticeboard/Archive 12 for reference. Thanks. DMBFFF (talk) 01:26, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
 * If you are an administrator on the wiki there is a restore button that allows you to do so. You can click here and it will take you there. Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 14:10, 24 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Done, but it's a redirect that I made it in June. I created the page months earlier. Again, I think I lost the original content when I moved it to the new namespace, turned the former into a redirect, and then removed the namespace (erroneously, it seems). DMBFFF (talk) 10:54, 25 July 2020 (UTC)
 * It looks like I won't be getting any help in this anytime soon. It's a good thing I saved my old pages. To anyone is reading this, save your pages, and don't delete particular namespaces without first moving the ones you don't want lost. Maybe I'll figure this all out myself in several months or a few years. I'm not faulting the admins: it's just the way it is, I suppose. DMBFFF (talk) 16:18, 30 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Looking at this request, you actually came to the correct location, if (a) you first asked a local administrator to restore your page and (b) if a local administrator on that wiki did not action your request for restoration within "a reasonable period of time" (somewhat common practice seems to be at least seven days must've elapsed). At that time, you can request here, ideally linking to your request on the local wiki, and a steward (or Global Sysop (as long it's not a GS opted out wiki) can then action your request appropriately (if the local wiki has local deletion/undeletion policies, then those prevail; otherwise, it's subject to global policies and conventions)). I'm going to ping back to this request to alert him to your follow up. Dmehus (talk) 16:47, 30 July 2020 (UTC)
 * You are a local  and   on this wiki. You should, therefore, be able to undelete this page. Apologies to Reception123 for my premature ping above. Dmehus (talk) 16:51, 30 July 2020 (UTC)
 * I see the problem. You only restored the most recent revision, which was a redirect. Go back into the page restoration function for that page and restore all revisions, then undo only the most recent edit to show the previous page. Dmehus (talk) 16:56, 30 July 2020 (UTC)
 * You may also want to check the destination page, FMRAV:DMBFFF (FMRAV User page)/Dekadays beginning from winter solstice. I'm not seeing any logs for that page, but seeing as that is a redlink, there could very well be content that can be restored there. Dmehus (talk) 17:01, 30 July 2020 (UTC)

Thank you Reception123 and Dmehus for your replies. As per Reception123's link "here" it leads to only 2 earlier versions to restore: the earliest being 28 June 2020, whereas I created the page several months earlier—possibly even last year.

In my my post to MediaWiki, a mw:User:Bawolff said:

if you know the numeric page id, often you can use the curid parameter (but that doesnt seem to work in your https://fictionandfictionalsettingswiki.miraheze.org/wiki/?curid=4 case) or the api using page id parameters.

Otherwise you need miraheze to run cleanupTitles.php.

I don't know what that all means—as I'm far from being an expert.

Again,


 * 1) I created a new namespace, "FMRAV:"
 * 2) I moved some of my pages to it. I believe the histories were also moved to such pages, e.g. User:DMBFFF/Dekadays beginning from winter solstice and its history was moved to FMRAV:DMBFFF (FMRAV User page)/Dekadays beginning from winter solstice
 * 3) I then turned the old pages into re-directs to the FMRAV: pages e.g. User:DMBFFF/Dekadays beginning from winter solstice.
 * 4) I then changed my mind—as I'm still working out things in my wiki.
 * 5) I then erred when I removed/deleted/whatever the namespace. What I think I should have done was to move the content in the FMRAV pages back to their original pages, and then remove/delete/whatever the FMRAV pages. As it is, I didn't and apparently lost content and histories of such, and the original pages remained/remain as redirects.
 * 6) As I figure this stuff is unlikely truely lost—maybe it's in the original pages, maybe it's in the FMRAV pages—at least for the experts—I'm not seeing any logs for that page, but seeing as that is a redlink, there could very well be content that can be restored there. Dmehus (talk) 17:01, 30 July 2020 (UTC)—I posted my issue here last month and MW, with the resulting replies.

Again, though this is presently the worse thing to have happened to me here in Miraheze, it is one that I can live with as I save pages. If anyone can help me fix it, great. If not, again, it's a lesson learned, and I might figure it out on my own and/or come across something in several months or a few years. I am far from despondant, and I thank all for their time.

Now I have another question! :D

I can now embed YouTube videos

such as in Fun:Song(s) for the dekaday#23rd dekaday

and Wikicommons videos such as in

User:DMBFFF/Sandbox

how about Vimeo, DailyMotion (more hypothetically than anything), niconico, YouKu, and maybe xHamster and PornHub, not for porn but, oddly as it sounds, music?

such as in Fun:Song(s) for the dekaday#15th dekaday, this, and this(4:31 in to video)? —stuff you won't see on YouTube anytime soon, but has some musical and artistic value (and for those not offended by female nudity.)

Also, how would one embed a YT, or other video, to play only at a certain time?

Such as when wanting to cue to the lady holding the Gadsden flag 3:36 into this video: 6:07 https://youtu.be/KI_OgLaWVH0?t=216

Again, help is appreciated. :)  DMBFFF (talk) 02:39, 5 August 2020 (UTC)


 * I must be some kind of wiki-moron.


 * my recent changes


 * I moved [Category:Relatively small little known places] to [Category:The world's relatively small little known places] without leaving a redirect, and it seems to have worked out.

‎
 * I moved [FMRAV:CMNF Club (draft)] to [Draft:CMNF Club]. Again no problem though the latter also shows up as a red link.


 * Noticing that all but 1 of my Fiction and Fictional Settings Wiki: namespaces didn't show up on the special pages (as the prefix) I thought I'd experiment by moving [Fiction and Fictional Settings Wiki:FMRAV] to [Fiction and Fictional Settings Wiki:Fiction and Fictional Settings Wiki:FMRAV] without leaving a redirect, as an experiment, with the intention of moving it back, and apparently the content disappeared from both pages.


 * So what do I do in what I figure will be in the absence of useful advice?


 * As I've saved the pages I'll create a new page with the same name, based on pages I've saved.


 * I will give up on being able to search under the special pages tab for some of the prefixed pages—it should be enough that I categorize my pages.


 * As for my questions about vimeo and the others, I will upload still images from the videos—screenshots—that when clicked will go to such sites, and accept that perhaps +99% of sheeple on the internet know of no other (non-porn) video sites save YouTube, Facebook, and TicToc, and thus few will be interested in my concerns here.


 * I would ask how one could pipe FMRAV pages for categories, as in [Category:Contents|FMRAV] without it showing up under "F" instead of "FMRAV" but instead I'll use the Greek letter Phi—"Φ"—e.g. [Category:Contents|Φ], and explain in my [Fiction and Fictional Settings Wiki:FMRAV], once I re-create that page.


 * Best wishes to all in surmounting their obstacles. (I'm not angry: just a little tired. Time for a break.)


 * DMBFFF (talk) 23:27, 5 August 2020 (UTC)

I thought I'd try creating a new namespace, "Transit:" for when I'm moving pages when trying to improve other namespaces I created. I seem to have succeeded in correcting one of my Fun talk: pages, but I eliminated a FAFSW page I created in February. The lesson here seems to be to don't try to improve the FAFSW settings. Just categorize. I'm tempted to request starting over with a new wiki, but at present, the temptation is easy to resist. DMBFFF (talk) 21:40, 16 August 2020 (UTC)

Please globally lock RainBoy107
Reason: He said in a YouTube video that he'd be happy if a user died and had the audacity to say that he would celebrate her death. He's also been acting like a pervert towards minors too. Here's a link to where he was acting so heartless: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TWFya401z6A&t=49s

DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) 17:11, 1 August 2020 (UTC)DarkMatterMan4500
 * Do you have any definitive proof that the Miraheze user is the same as the one on YouTube besides the username? Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 18:02, 1 August 2020 (UTC)

Actually, yes I do. Before RainBoy107 closed his YouTube account, he has been making multiple threats towards people and even caused drama in the YouTube community. He also shipped minors on YouTube as well. And here's his Miraheze account on Horrible Vyonders Wiki: https://horriblevyonderswiki.miraheze.org/wiki/User:RainBoy107 DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) 11:45, 7 August 2020 (UTC)DarkMatterMan4500
 * You will need to provide a diff or permalink to a revision on Miraheze that confirms the link between the RainBoy107 Miraheze account and the YouTube account, as alluded to. You might start by looking through the revisions of all the RainBoy107 attached user accounts' user pages, for a specific diff where the user noted their YouTube account. Hope that helps. Dmehus (talk) 15:15, 7 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Any on-wiki evidence of abuse and such would also help. Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 14:30, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

 * It's good that you've provided diffs, but a steward will likely need more than this. We've had back-and-forth, tit-for-tat reports between related users on Stewards' noticeboard of late, so this seems like it might be a dispute involving multiple parties or factions, one ideally suited for steward mediation. You should be advised that all parties' contributions and conduct would be assessed in such multiple party disputes. Dmehus (talk) 19:01, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
 * You misunderstand, because he has vandalized on several wikis, which is obviously unacceptable behavior and since it's on multiple wikis that is cause for a global lock as this user has frequently engaged in this misconduct. GondorChicken (talk) 19:57, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I'm not misunderstanding. Vandalism, other than blatant vandalism, is difficult to quantify as each wiki has different local policies on what they view as notionally vandalism. Some wikis might interpret changing things on a page that contravenes their local writing style guide as vandalism; others may take a more liberal view. This probably needs steward attention, yes, but I'm just saying that they will likely to want to evaluate the conduct of other users, on other wikis. As well, they will likely want to give a chance to provide a statement. Dmehus (talk) 21:07, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
 * You have a definite point, but I feel that spamming "bitch" into the front page on a wiki and removing loads of content usually qualifies as blatant vandalism. GondorChicken (talk) 21:51, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes, that is blatant vandalism, but why is the front page not protected at  or  ? There are alternatives here, and the user could also be locally blocked on one or more wikis, too. Dmehus (talk) 21:54, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Dude, I was just trying to give criticism. --Rainstorm1650 (talk) 06:09, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Vandalism isn't criticism. You can always speak your views. --GondorChicken (talk) 17:51, 16 August 2020 (UTC)

Locking Me (WickyHoney)
I requested a Global Lock on this account a while ago through email and I still haven't been. I just wanted to say that I haven't forgotten and that I still want to be ended. You may also lock FlavorWick as well. I have made up my mind and I believe this is the best method. WickyHoney (talk) 20:46, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Well, shoot, I hope that you might reconsider your decision to self-request a lock on your account. I was actually wondering why you haven't been nominated for wiki creator yet, and was going to ask you if you'd be interested in volunteering as you're an experienced, constructive global contributor to the Miraheze community and quite active on Meta. You seem to have a great understanding of Content Policy and even Dormancy Policy, and I thought you'd be a really good fit. Nevertheless, if there's nothing I or other users can do to change your mind, I respect that, and would just add several points on possible reasons for the delay. First, stewards may have a custom or convention whereby they wait for a few calendar days to a week on self-requested global locks, in case users change their mind. Second, Tropical Storm Isaias has impacted the U.S. eastern seaboard fairly heavily, with at least one steward without power or Internet access and another vacationing system administrator also somewhat impacted. Finally, we do have a limited number of stewards capable of performing a vast number of duties, as you know, but I am sure they will get to your request shortly.

Could you please close down Horrible Music and Songs Wiki?
The wiki was founded by an inactive user who doesn't even take the quality seriously, and it's biased just like its FANDOM counterpart.

Add TheTopTens to global external link blacklist
Following a discussion with on Discord discussing the idea of globally blacklisting TheTopTens to prevent all users, not just non-autoconfirmed users, from linking to that website on Miraheze, he encouraged me to raise it on Stewards' noticeboard for attention by a steward. The rationale behind blacklisting it to all users is really three-fold:
 * 1) No known organization is publicly listed as being behind the website; any references in its terms of use and privacy policy are just to "TheTopTens," which is problematic for being unable to contact the website owner in the event of problematic user submitted content linked to from Miraheze;
 * 2) It is a pure play SEO spam website, with absolutely zero useful content that would be even remotely useful to link to; and, most critically,
 * 3) It has been used a method by which problematic Miraheze users have posted forms of harassment about other Miraheze users.

Whether we add this to an existing or new global abuse filter, or to an external links MediaWiki configuration file on GitHub, I'm agnostic as to which approach we use; however, principally, the reason for blacklisting it is that if we stop the ability to link to a frequent method by which LTAs post problematic content about Miraheze users, we stop, or at least make more difficult, the ability of LTAs to link to that content.

Can you close this wiki please, it's corrupt
So I'm talking about Common Sense Wiki, it's full of propaganda, false claims, biased reasons, it's hypocritical, the admins are corrupt and the wiki defends Zenko who is an SJW, the reason why it's hypocritical is because Ramadhan1a is banned from all positions of being an admin there due to being an SJW when the wiki supports Zenko (who is an SJW as mentioned).

Can this wiki be closed please?

 * That may well be, but each wiki is governed by local rules, and we really can't override those rules, so long as they're not violating the Code of Conduct or other global policies. As Soratako also explained above, stewards would require diffs of permalinks on that wiki that illustrate how that wiki is violating our global content and conduct policies.

Inactivity exemption for Industrial Robotics & Automation (mh142.com)
Hello. I would like to request an exception to the dormancy/inactive policy for Industrial Robotics & Automation (mh142.com). This wiki is set up as a free open alternative for the very expensive textbooks for the classes I teach, to save the students from having to purchase one. The classes sometimes run every other semester and may not need editing when the class is not in session. I do not wish to lose the work I have put into it while I focus my efforts into other courses between the robotics courses. Mike138 (talk) 09:39, 10 August 2020 (UTC)

Unblock
Please unblock my ip range. My ip is range is not a webhost! 100.33.92.182 00:51, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 100.33.92.182, a couple things. First, is this IP range globally or locally blocked? If the former, stewards and Global Sysops can address this. If the latter, you will first need to take that up with the local wiki(s). Second, if you have been affected adversely by a global IP block, you can e-mail, specifying your registered account that you use, to request a global IP block exemption. Hope this helps.

 * Firstly, thank you for your post. Additionally, I've added a timestamp to your post as a bot requires them for archiving threads. They also help to cross-reference a specific post to the specific revision in which it was made. I also noted most of your signature is wrapped in  tags, which seems to be in error.
 * Second, to answer your question, in checking this wiki's settings, I see that it's not marked as "closed." So, an adoption can't be undertaken. If you are wanting a steward to promote you to  where no local bureaucrat is available, what you need to do is organize a local election or appointment process on that wiki, taking into account any local election or appointment policies. Where none exists, commonly, this typically means that the election or appointment process is held on a prominent page on the wiki, and a majority of those that express an opinion support the candidacy of those running. (You'd need to specify how many positions are up for election or appointment.) Typically, you should keep the process open for at least seven (7) calendar days, unless local policies specify a longer (or shorter) timeframe. When the process concludes, return to Stewards' noticeboard and inform the stewards of (a) the location of your election or appointment process and (b) the location of any local policies. Hope this helps. Dmehus (talk) 18:00, 11 August 2020 (UTC)

Can someone block Awesome09000?
Awesome09000 is a very toxic user who denies all of his wrongdoings and even uses his IP address to trick others into thinking that they're different people. He also had the guts to harass various Miraheze users over on FANDOM. Namely Portrock1566, NeptunePerson2018 and others. So you might have to add FANDOM to the blacklist too.

Would you please close down this wiki?

 * I think that wikis about users should be forbidden because no one wants to be insulted and exposed. Especially those who are trying to keep their information private. There is a line between free speech and criminal speech, and talking trash about other people is criminal. Also, wikis about users usually start and cause dramas, we can't have any more drama. I'd appreciate if this wiki gets closed down and deleted and that no more wikis and pages about users, especially a certain user, will ever be made. ~an unknown individual using a VPN, but I'll leave here if you want me to.
 * 78.159.101.115, free speech is, absolutely, a hallmark of the Miraheze community and the wiki farm. Libelous or grossly defamatory speech, though, is certainly unacceptable, and, indeed, such conduct (whether it occurs on-wiki or on Discord or IRC), would be in contravention of the Code of Conduct. Stewards, principally, are the first point of contact to investigate such reports; however, your report is completely absent of really any evidence required (typically in the form of diffs, wiki search histories by user(s), and other forms of evidence) in order for any investigation to begin and potential action to be taken. Are you able to provide this evidence? Dmehus (talk) 02:06, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Hello, in addition to what already mentioned above: although it could be argued either way, the wiki could be considered a violation of the Content Policy, as it states Miraheze does not host wikis with the sole purpose to spread unsubstantiated insult, hate or rumours against a person or group of people If the wiki were to expose private or personal information about an individual, then that would definitively be against Miraheze policies, and could result in the wiki's closure, but whether it currently is could be debated either way, and without providing evidence, it would be very difficult to investigate the wiki and more specifically, your claims.

 * I haven't looked through all the contributions, but from my perspective as a non-contributing outsider, calling a user "malicious" and "psychopathic," as shown in that edit linked above is never okay. It is uncivil and contravenes the Code of Conduct. As to the claim about the user having over "1000 sockpuppets," as seen in the same edit, since CheckUser is a centrally-controlled user right for exclusive use by stewards, you cannot confirm this. You can only suggest this is the case, so saying with certainty does at least open the door to claims of unsourced statements and potential contravention of the Code of Conduct and/or other global policies. If you suspect something, you should include words like likely or possibly, and should be prepared to provide supporting behavioural evidence. Dmehus (talk) 22:03, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Update: There will be a forthcoming Order from the Code of Conduct Commission related to this discussion thread. No further discussion should occur in this thread. Thanks. Dmehus (talk) 17:27, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
 * On what grounds would the commission be making such an order? My understanding is the CoCC can not initiate their own discipline processes and can not hear a complaint raised to them without previous resolution attempts. If the Commission is acting against recent community consensus, I would advise the Commission to re-think its approach now. John (talk) 20:40, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
 * We received a complaint privately and currently considering the exact wording and scope of a proposed action along with the admissable evidence to support that. ~ RhinosF1 - (chat)· acc· c -  21:19, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
 * My knowledge as a Steward is no complaints besides this one have been raised with regards to CoC issues on the wiki. Therefore is this confirmation that the Commission are launching initial discipline hearings without referring to the relevant body, directly in contravention if the Commission policy? I would hope not as I don’t feel the Community would like to know the first action of the Commission they elected us to ignore policy and subvert the relevant processes they have chosen to enact. John (talk) 22:04, 13 August 2020 (UTC)

About reCAPTCHA
Miraheze use this to prevent garbage and others.But in China,we cannot see the Verification Code without vpn.It is inconvenient for some writer,especially in a Chinese community.

As far as I am concerned,the raCAPTCHA of Google has more than four service url:www.google.com,www.recaptcha.net and so on.The url www.google.com is common,but it doesnot work in China.I think Miraheze use this.The www.recaptcha.net and others can work in China.

So we only can use SpecialPage to create an account.It is so inconvenient.

Can I or you change? Such as close the reCAPTCHA in our wiki and to choose a better way.Or a good way:change the service url.

At last,our wiki url is nmfwiki.miraheze.org.And my email is kaizhadanche@sina.com.Excuse my awful English.

 * I apologize for the inconvenience. But this is a difficult problem. Sure, we can use something other than ReCaptcha, but this choice is inconvenient for most users.

 * Thanks, I've alerted the stewards to this thread on Discord. Dmehus (talk) 18:33, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Please, please please, I'm sorry for my wrongdoings, Miraheze! Even though I did actually cause drama, GondorChicken is actually trying to lock me because he is a whiteknight of Zenko, who is the real abuser! I swear, it was a misunderstanding! I was only trying to help other stop Zenko from abusing multiple accounts so others won't be encouraged to whiteknight! SoloPatriot7890 (talk) 06:00, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Also, he was blocked for no good reason. --Rainstorm1650 (talk) 06:10, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry for my past wrongdoings, I only wanted to start a new time here. SoloPatriot7890 (talk) 06:15, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

Regarding your apology to me above, there was no need as I was just clerking this noticeboard. As to any previous global lock(s), I would strongly suggest you e-mail, acknowledging that you created this account without a full understanding of user accounts policy with respect to block or lock evasion of existing sanctions, and then appeal your existing lock, addressing the concerns for why your original account was originally locked. Contrition and addressing how past behaviour can go a long way (see also WP:ROPE). In the meantime, I further strongly advise you cease using this account and do not create any additional accounts or edit while logged out. These only compound the problem as to trustworthiness. Dmehus (talk) 13:24, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
 * While lock evading is bad, I don't think should get globalled. While he was Se/TheInterneto, he was immature, and got into flame wars with Zenko, causing him to get globalled (It's still unfair). But he is redeemed, and stopped doing wwhat he did. He is neutral about Zenko, unblocks good users etc. The only reason GondorChicken reported him for being a lock evader is because he hates him because Zenko hates him, in which GC is a whiteknight of. Which makes GC a hypocrite because he approves of Zenko evading her ban too. Please don't lock him Tom191 (talk) 22:13, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
 * At least I got to see Miraheze once again. SoloPatriot7890 (talk) 01:25, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Firstly, I'm not a steward or Global Sysop, so I could not take such an action. Second, I never suggested anything like that. Please re-read what I wrote to . I was just providing him with good-faith advice on what he should do, which is to reach out, good-faith, to  and let them know that he created a second account, while the original account was locked, and address the conditions that led to the original account being looked at in the first place. That goes a long way to re-establishing trustworthiness that is so integral to a functioning community. Dmehus (talk) 22:26, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Treating opinions as facts never gets anyone anywhere for long. That's called lying. --GondorChicken (talk) 23:42, 17 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Why do you exclude yourself from this advice? Do you think I have no feelings? --GondorChicken (talk) 01:30, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * No, but you need to understand that you can't undo the past of your own actions or anyone elses, no matter how close you are to Zenko. So let me ask you this, why do you want me globalled? SoloPatriot7890 (talk) 01:40, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * See my comment several indentations above on what I think is the best course of action for you here, and that is to, in good-faith, reach out to  per my advice above. Dmehus (talk) 01:49, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * All right SoloPatriot7890 (talk) 01:58, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I do think that Solo (Ik he’s you-know-who (NOT Voldemort) but IDGAF) can still learn from his past mistakes. - MeMeGuYWasLost (talk) 22:37, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Probably true. One of my reasons for reporting him was to get him locked to avoid conflict, but the other reason is because I had noticed that Reception wondered why no admin on Unfavorable Wikis and Users Wiki was reporting locked users when they found out. Honor comes before personal beliefs. I realized I needed to help Reception out so that is what I did. I don't hate Solo. It's just that if I notice something that violates the ToU then I should report it. My tendency to look through various wikis led me to evidence so I reported it because I couldn't not report it since I saw it. It's okay to report factual evidence. I know hate is never an answer and should never prevail. I have seen and felt hate. Hate is disgusting. I see people treating people like they are scum through and through, so I do something about it. Apparently I am scum though. Liars accuse people of lying. I am unsure who is lying since the truth is fading. To put it simply, I never wanted to be in a cell where I would be perpetually poked and insulted just for understanding that no matter how bad someone did that they shouldn't be held with those errors and mistakes forever. I realize I came off the opposite since I was just trying to be nice but my methods rubbed several people the wrong way. I guess I will be remembered as chaotic evil just for trying to help an overhated user out. I had a small grudge against Solo that I admit but I ultimately just wanted to follow the rules and help others follow the rules. Rules exist for a reason. I followed them the best I could. Judged eternally I wait for death. Death doesn't exist though because everyone remembers your mistakes and bad judgements. I do feel hate. I feel hate for not knowing how to change things in a way that will benefit everyone. --GondorChicken (talk) 00:10, 19 August 2020 (UTC)

I've seen the Terms of Use invoked—both in this thread and on IRC. It's important to point out that the Terms of Use and Code of Conduct are separate global policies, with the former enforced by system administrators and the latter enforced by the stewards and Global Sysops (and really all Mirahezians, since we all have a responsibility, fundamentally, for ensuring we (a) abide by by the CoC and (b) ensure it is abided by on wikis in which we administer or manage). The Terms of Use is a much narrower set of operating conditions to which Mirahezians agree by creating a Miraheze account and to using it; it's more of a legal document, in essence. The Code of Conduct is, essentially, a community-adopted set of global community standards that apply globally to all Mirahezians. Dmehus (talk) 00:57, 19 August 2020 (UTC)

Gone wiki froggy.info
Hi folks,

I was about to add a couple or minor edit on https://froggy.info and the Wiki no longer exist. Is it lost forever or is there a way to resurrect it?

Thanks!
 * , it may be possible to retrieve an XML dump as one of our system administrators,, tries to do this (for public wikis, that is) prior to running the wiki deletion script. They are usually posted to this Internet Archive page; however, in order to search for it more quickly, do you remember either the username of the original requesting user, the  used, or the wiki database name (i.e., subdomainwiki)?
 * Also, I have added an unsigned signature to your post. Please remember to sign all talk page and noticeboard posts with four tildes . Thank you. Dmehus (talk) 23:15, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

 * No problem. Glad your wiki was able to be restored in the nick of time. Make sure that you have at least one edit or log action that would show up in Special:RecentChanges made every 45-60 days to prevent your wiki from being inactive.

I think Reception123 blocked the wrong person.
Remember that edit war between FreezingTNT and Inkster on Awful Movies Wiki (namely the Ratchet & Clank page)? Here's what Masson had to say:

"Inkster is unfortunately often creating problems and edits wars on the wikis. FreezingTNT is usually quiet and never gave us big problems overall."

In other words, FreezingTNT is innocent. He didn't intend to start the edit war at all. Inkster was trying to help him before TNT accidentally moved it back. He was well-intentioned.

Trevor807 (talk) 17:54, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
 * , FreezingTNT is not globally locked and never has been. blocked the user, temporarily, due to uncivil edit summaries and edit warring, presumably, because no action was taken by local administrators. It was strictly a local block, which, incidentally, expires later today. If other users are using uncivil, disrespectful language or otherwise violating the Code of Conduct, they, too, can be reported, but please note that reports should include direct links to the specific revision(s) or diff(s) in question. Hope that helps. Dmehus (talk) 19:30, 16 August 2020 (UTC)

So I asked some people on Horrible Music and Songs Wiki if they wanted to be bureaucrats right here, and as you can see, Theblazemaster4, DuchessTheSponge, HellLord, and Tom191 all express interest in it. Rainstorm1650 would also like to be a bureaucrat along with myself, Disintegrated.to.pieces. So could you please give us all bureaucrat status?

 * FWIW, all I see there is a list of users indicating their willingness to stand for election as a . Does that wiki have any policies governing local elections or appointments? If not, I might recommend creating a new section on that page, listing all the candidates for , describing how many positions are to be granted, and the terms (i.e., the support ratio) that must be achieved for the request to be successful. Then, you would have everyone vote there whether to "support all"; "support some (listing the exceptions)"; "oppose all"; or "oppose some (listing the exceptions)". Once that had been concluded (typically after 7 days, if no local policies exist), you would come back here and link to stewards of the that page containing the resullts. Right now, we only see a list of people wanting to be a bureaucrat, not whether they support each other, if that makes sense. Dmehus (talk) 20:12, 16 August 2020 (UTC)

Vandal alert
I have detected a vandal on the Awful Deviant Artist Wiki who has vandalized a page. Evidence is right here: https://awfuldeviantartist.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/TheCatCameBackTheVeryNextDay

Please lock this vandal immediately. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) 15:05, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * , firstly, would you mind going into your preferences or global preferences, as applicable (whatever you're using), and remove the trailing "DarkMatterMan4500" from your signature, or just not add the plain text duplicate iteration of "DarkMatterMan4500" to every post that you make? The likely reason is that, by being connected to the timestamp of your signature without a space, prevents the bot from archiving threads where no one has replied to the thread. It'd be much appreciated.
 * Regarding your report of cross-wiki vandalism, I would just note that locally blocked TheCatCameBack. Given the username similarities and similar attached contributions to TheCatCameBackTheVeryNextDay, it's possible these two accounts are related, so your report will be considered by stewards in due course. Thank you for your report. In the meantime, if you are an administrator on that local wiki, you should be able to locally block this account, too, pending any further action by global administrators. Dmehus (talk) 15:20, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * , Well ok. And about those 2 being related, it's actually because they're both the same user. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) 15:30, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * , thanks for amending your signature. Much appreciated. Only a CheckUser, principally, a steward, can confirm abuse of multiple accounts; however, I tend to agree that the behavioural evidence you've provided is compelling, and that is likely why the second account has been ✅ by a Global Sysop, with the original account remaining locally blocked on one more more wikis.

Abuse and vandalism on Nonciclopedia
Hello. For several days I have been attacked by vandals and trolls on Nonciclopedia. They keep vandalizing my talk page and constantly changing IPs. I therefore request the global lock of the following IP addresses: 79.55.124.80, 82.54.170.162, 87.21.127.89, 87.6.126.112 and 82.54.170.162. These IPs also vandalize other people's discussion pages and attack other users, like Fantinaikos, the only admin of the wiki.

Please delete this page and this page - there is always vandalism on these pages, and I do not want to start an edit war with the vandals. Also, please delete and then protect my discussions page so that anonymous users cannot edit it.

After banning the other trolls, 193.207.192.40, added bad words in Italian: you should block this IP address.

If it is possible, you should completely lock Nonciclopedia from anonymous edits, so that only logged in users can contribute. The wiki has too many IP vandals and there is only one administrator, who cannot always be active to undo edits. Gabngst (talk) 15:33, 19 August 2020 (UTC)

Unprofessional blocking from several wikis

 * No, we blocked you: Bad Scratch Wiki, treating one of my friend's depression as a mere joke. This would describe Wpetoi: "DePresSiOn Is fAkE". You also attempted to switch you slanderous wiki into attempting it to be satire so you can try to save your wiki. And your denying the wrongdoings, Wpetoi, by saying that all those information you did was false, such as wanting to wish death on users, children, attempted to "switch" Bad Scratch Wiki's purpose to satire, and even hiding your secret on your FANDOM and Reddit account. You excuse yourself by saying "these accounts are impostors. This is why I higly despise you for all the stuff you did (except for deleting Griffpatch's page) --Hookuai (talk) 07:10, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
 * ( non-steward comment ) I would just like to mention that each local wiki administrator has the right to block whoever they want and I doubt a Steward would want to get involved in such matters for the vast majority of cases. And again, please remember to keep things civil on SN. Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 07:15, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Echoing what said, I would just add to that if some of the block summaries contain personal attacks or otherwise violate the Code of Conduct, there may be a case for a redaction of the inappropriate block summaries, but yes, local blocks are a local matter. If there is material on wikis that otherwise violates the Code of Conduct, these can be reported to stewards, and e-mail to   may be a better avenue for these reports. If you are unsatisfied with the action taken by stewards, you can review Code of Conduct to find out what your avenues for appeal or reconsideration are, or ask stewards to advise you of that.

 * Yes, they have violated the code of conduct on multiple occasions, both in block messages and pretty much any outlet they have to send messages to me (if you don't believe me, see how many hate replies the message got for the sole reason that I was the one who posted it). I have elaborated further in a post above. Wpetoi (talk) 04:31, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Please stop victimizing yourself; it makes you no better and makes you look like you are chasing sympathy and clout. Why do you think we're treating you like a monster? If you did, we would've outright banned you on any wiki you come (except for the Meta.) --Hookuai (talk) 06:58, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
 * If you want unblocked, then show us that you have changed, admit the accounts were yours (or provide more proof that they were not yours) and say that the things you did were wrong and that you will not do them again. And say sorry about anything you did. ScratchCoder (talk) 14:37, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
 * SC is right. What he did is advising you to admit your wrongs. --Hookuai (talk) 06:58, 22 August 2020 (UTC)

Please globally lock this vandal
His name's SonicYes FortniteNo, he vandalized the Coco page on Greatest Movies Wiki and the Wonder Park page on Awful Movies Wiki so if you could globally lock him that'd be great. - Theblazemaster4 (talk) 13:27, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Unless they seem to be a sock of someone, I think two instances of removing content from pages is a bit weak to justify a global lock. Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 13:30, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
 * How about a block on Awful Movies Wiki and Greatest Movies Wiki then, if he vandalises a page on an another wiki then globally lock him - HellLord (21 August 2020 UK)
 * Concur completely with . I think we may want to develop an informational page on what constitutes as "blatant vandalism" for the purposes of counter vandalism team action. Vandalism in the context of local wiki administrators may be a person removing content they don't like or otherwise object to, for which local administrators can locally block; however, in the context of global counter vandalism, unless the user is (a) a sockpuppet of a blocked user or (b) engaging solely in unconstructive vandalism (as globally measured by CVT) as a vandalism only account, there's little to arguably no case for a global lock. Dmehus (talk) 14:01, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
 * However, judging by the fact he has only 2 edits, both being the aforementioned vandalism on pages, he might be a vandalism-only account. - Theblazemaster4 (talk) 14:12, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes, it is definitely a possibility that it is a vandalism-only account, but to lock an account for two edits which are simply removing content from a page is premature and unnecessary. If there is more cross-wiki vandalism or it escalates, a global lock will be considered. Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 15:02, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
