Meta:Administrators' noticeboard

Requesting the rights
Hello. Would it be possible to have my translation admin and patroller rights back? I am interested in volunteering again. Thanks. Startus (talk) 11:00, 23 May 2022 (UTC)


 * ✅. I trust you remember the patroller and translation administrator guidelines so thus I will not link them. Either way, welcome back! Agent Isai  Talk to me! 12:23, 23 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks, Agent. Yeah, I remember the guidelines :) Startus (talk) 14:30, 23 May 2022 (UTC)

Need help with this edit
Hey, I'm trying to publish the H:PF redirect for the Help:ParserFunctions page which I've recently created for this wiki. But unfortunately one of the Abuse filters is preventing me from publishing it. ― C.Syde (talk  | contribs ) 07:40, 31 May 2022 (UTC)


 * I have tried to create the page and yet, it prevents me to create the redirect too. Since the abuse filter is set as private that only meta administrators can view it, I am pinging Agent Isai here, an active sysop here. Cheers, Matttest (talk) 09:20, 31 May 2022 (UTC)
 * You don't seem to be a member of any groups that I'm not a member of. So if I can't create the redirect, I wouldn't expect you to be able to either. ― C.Syde (talk  | contribs ) 10:28, 31 May 2022 (UTC)
 * The AbuseFilter limits this to sysops/autopatrolled users. It is not designed to consider Stewards either and is something to perhaps consider as an update. --Raidarr (talk) 13:20, 31 May 2022 (UTC)
 * So could the redirect that I was trying to create be created? ― C.Syde (talk  | contribs ) 14:05, 31 May 2022 (UTC)
 * It is to be assumed that all Stewards are autopatrolled as that demonstrates trustworthiness from Meta sysops and evidently, Stewards are trusted. I don't see a valid use case for exemptions for the local Stewards group in light of this. Agent Isai  Talk to me! 19:15, 31 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Why do you want to create this page? Agent Isai  Talk to me! 19:15, 31 May 2022 (UTC)
 * The answer is in the abuse log. Because other pages redirecting to other sites also have shortcuts like that. It's not consistent otherwise. ― C.Syde (talk  | contribs ) 21:22, 31 May 2022 (UTC)

Patroller request for Matttest
Hello, I would like to volunteer to be a patroller on Meta Wiki. My active wikis are Public Test Wiki (some of them are tests but also helping users in the community portal, giving them reminders), some wikis in the Chinese language as mentioned in my userpage, and meta is one of the active wikis I am in. As of recent weeks, I have been active patrolling the noticeboards, reviewing edits (such as adding the template when a user haven’t signed their messages) and new pages at both Special:RecentChanges and Special:NewPages. By becoming a patroller, I will be able to help on marking pages as patrolled and thus lower the burden of other administrators who have a lot to do. I am looking forward for any questions or concerns, thank you for your consideration. --Matttest (talk) 07:53, 1 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Thank you for volunteering. While reviewing your edits, I found that the bulk of your recent edits focus more on your ongoing feud on . I would feel more comfortable granting the right if I saw further evidence of activity on Meta other than relating to your ongoing issue on the aforementioned wiki. As such, I am marking as not done for now. I would suggest you continue to volunteer on Meta and also that you review Patrollers and the guidelines for patrollers. Thanks!  Agent Isai  Talk to me! 08:08, 1 June 2022 (UTC) (P.S. I saw your user page and I would disagree with the claim that Matomo is spying on you)
 * Yet, some of them is indeed, relating the the unbooks’ dispute, which makes the my edits of meta related activities to be not obvious and probably not enough. Anyway, I will keep my activities in meta and be more active in patrolling noticeboards before I request the right here again. Thanks. (P.S. From my point of view, matomo is analyzing user’s behavior without a reason - I can’t understand why matomo needs to log social networks, resolution, etc.). Cheers, Matttest (talk) 09:01, 1 June 2022 (UTC)

File:33-338456 choco-milk-chocolate-milk.png
Please delete File:33-338456 choco-milk-chocolate-milk.png or move it to Miraheze Commons. I don't see any actual use of it here on Miraheze Meta. Startus (talk) 13:34, 8 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Hey, the file is actually used to give encouragement like “barnstars” to users, see here. I can’t see any reasons to delete this file given this. Cheers, Matttest (talk | contribs) 13:42, 8 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Exactly, that's why I added it could be moved to Commons as I said in my original post. But, I think it is out of scope of Meta-Wiki. Startus (talk) 16:14, 8 June 2022 (UTC)

Autopatrolled user request: Cigaryno66331
Hello, I need the autopatrolled flag because I don't want to have my edits as ! Thanks. Cigaryno66331 (talk) 10:05, 14 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi. You're quite new here and barely have 20 edits on Meta, so I think it's quite early to request autopatrolled and would suggest you take more time. Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 10:41, 14 June 2022 (UTC)
