Request to remove a user's bureaucrat status
Hello, I would like to request that TenderGnat be removed as a bureaucrat on the Monolith: After the End wiki.

They granted me bureaucrat status when I picked up work on it last October, and have been inactive since long before then. While they haven't shown themselves to be a bother, it has been a point of discussion in private with other members of the community that they should no longer have access to wiki-altering permissions. One member pointed out that an entire page of their work was deleted by them, without any sort of discussion as well, seen here (hopefully that's visible to everyone).

I don't think Gnat is particularly problematic, but there is a chance that their inexperience and erratic decision-making could come back unchecked, and I would like to avoid that. The state of the Wiki has changed a lot since they started it, and I no longer believe that they have the experience required to responsibly maintain a place of authority where they are capable of altering other's work.

Please let me know if you would like any other details! Coolant (talk) 19:03, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Has there been an on-wiki discussion regarding the removal? If so, you should link to it. — Arcversin (talk) 19:32, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately no. We communicate primarily using the Monolith community Discord server (which Gnat has also since left). The Wiki has only recently garnered more community interest which led to a brief discussion on its management and Gnats place in that. - Coolant (talk) 20:43, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
 * I would advise you to hold a formal, on-wiki discussion in order to generate community consensus regarding that user's bureaucrat status. Also, has there been any discussion with that user about their bureaucrat status? — Arcversin (talk) 20:50, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
 * We can hold a discussion on-wiki, definitely. Unfortunately, I don't really know how to reach out to Gnat. I can attempt to do so through the Wiki itself, but otherwise I may find it difficult since they left the Discord server. I may be able to search for an old Discord message of theirs and send a PM through that, so I will try that. Is the desire that they themself request the status revocation? Coolant (talk) 21:02, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
 * In terms of reaching out to the user, you should do that on their talk page on the wiki. It's not required that they request it themselves, that just means there doesn't need to be an on-wiki !vote. — Arcversin (talk) 21:17, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Here's the link to our discussion: https://monolith.miraheze.org/wiki/Talk:Monolith:_After_The_End_Wiki
 * I reached out to Gnat on their talk page, but did not receive a response: https://monolith.miraheze.org/wiki/User_talk:TenderGnat
 * Let me know if there are any other actions I should take, thank you! - Coolant (talk) 17:26, 25 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Sorry for the delay in this, I have now removed their user rights as requested. John (talk) 19:01, 6 February 2022 (UTC)
 * No worries, appreciate the help -- thanks! Coolant (talk) 21:14, 7 February 2022 (UTC)

Hello, can you restore ManageWiki permissions to its original state? Thanks! AlPaD (talk) 20:14, 1 February 2022 (UTC)
 * ✅ Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 06:16, 5 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks, but mh:unicodesubsets:Special:ListGroupRights isn't still in its original state. AlPaD (talk) 18:47, 6 February 2022 (UTC)

Interwiki administrator
Just dropping by to let you know that I'm doing a local election on Variants Wiki to get local interwiki admin rights there: https://gtavariants.miraheze.org/wiki/GTA_Variants_Wiki:Requests_for_permissions, I'll wait a week at least. When I'm done, I'll ask an steward to give me interwiki administrator rights. Thanks! --YellowFrogger ( talk ) ( ✔ ) 00:43, 5 February 2022 (UTC)


 * YellowFrogger, ✅. Dmehus (talk) 18:43, 12 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks! But note that I will change the DiscussionBottom box to suit the wiki's black theme. --YellowFrogger ( talk ) ( ✔ ) 20:47, 12 February 2022 (UTC)
 * YellowFrogger, No problem, and thanks. I was hoping you might fix the CSS to match the local theme. I just cross-wiki substituted discussion top and discussion bottom. Dmehus (talk) 21:03, 12 February 2022 (UTC)

Bureaucrats on unicodesubsets.miraheze.org
There are dozens of bureaucrats on unicodesubsets include my user name, but I do not have bureaucrat rights, actually. Why is that? And who can change that? Thank you Lily talk and I will listen · Lilypond Wiki 11:45, 5 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Can you elaborate as to what you're asking? I see you're running a local election on the wiki, but what's with the list that you linked to? — Arcversin (talk) 17:43, 5 February 2022 (UTC)
 * This is a list of users with special rights. It is a strange thing that a wiki has so many bureaucrats. It seems that bureaucrat status is for nothing in this wiki, it does not grant more rights than a user. I should have bureaucrat rights, but I cannot edit the MediaWiki-namespace or add some extensions. I think i will give up on this wiki and import the pages with useful content to one of my wikis --LilyLilyu - smile.svg talk and I will listen · Lilypond Wiki 18:31, 5 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Taking a look at that wiki's settings, they appear to have set administrator and bureaucrat to be implicit groups. When you transclude Special:ListUsers on a wiki, putting the name of an implicit group has the same effect as putting the name of a group that does not exist, resulting in it actually asking for a "list of users, starting with the user named 'Bureaucrat'". Checking the actual list of bureaucrats, there's only one. Since you're running a local election, make sure to ask the Stewards to fix that when you request it be closed. — Arcversin (talk) 19:15, 5 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Hello, See. AlPaD (talk) 21:05, 6 February 2022 (UTC)
 * You should request that the implicit groups be reset to normal. — Arcversin (talk) 21:25, 6 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Lily, thank you for your request to assess your local election, which I've now ✅ in favour. Additionally, per this request and because there was no apparent local consensus for the wiki to make these radical permissions changes, I've separately reset the permissions to the defaults, with the exception of the  group. I'd kindly request your assistance your in effecting this locally now that your local election has been declared successful. Thanks. Dmehus (talk) 21:39, 6 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much! Greetings, --LilyLilyu - smile.svg talk and I will listen · Lilypond Wiki 09:48, 8 February 2022 (UTC)

Vandal threats
Someone threatened to vandalize my wiki for using "his assets" (Weren't created by him nor were copyrighted). Is there anything I can do to stop this guy? I don't have admin yet. (referring to the backrooms wiki which I adopted.) Sheep42 (talk) 17:55, 5 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Are you that guy who adopted that wiki and is still trying to get rights? Unfortunately the stewards are very slow due to their occupations. About the threat, I believe you are referring to an alert from a user named Josephdapro, he just said that if you copy content from FANDOM wikis they (users from beckrooms FANDOM wiki) have a chance of vandalizing. This same user was being reported for copying content on that same page, so it won't be him who will vandalize this wiki, but FANDOM users. --YellowFrogger ( talk ) ( ✔ ) 18:01, 5 February 2022 (UTC)
 * YellowFrogger may have the right of it. In general, it is necessary to know exactly who the someone is and where the threat was made so we (global sysops/stewardship) can assess our ability to address the problem or advise you on the best path. If action is taken against the wiki before you (or anyone locally) has adminship, a request can be made here and as a global sysop, I am capable of addressing vandalism and conduct issues in absence of local management when it is required. --Raidarr (talk) 21:00, 5 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I just need the ability to block them. Considering that they're from fandom, they're probably 12 and don't know how to use a vpn. Sheep42 (talk) 15:05, 6 February 2022 (UTC)
 * There are a few Stewards who have proven active today, so hopefully your election request will be reviewed very soon. In the meantime if there is something to act on, please report, and additionally it would help to know the source of the threat so we can see if something preventative or to clarify the situation is possible.. --Raidarr (talk) 20:33, 6 February 2022 (UTC)
 * I've seen it here, it looks like John, a steward, has granted you the rights of bureaucrat and administrator on the Bedroom wiki. Do you plan to do something? Thanks. --YellowFrogger ( talk ) ( ✔ ) 20:59, 6 February 2022 (UTC)
 * FINALLY! Thank you. Sheep42 (talk) 00:44, 8 February 2022 (UTC)
 * You're welcome. Grateful. Even so, I would like to know what action you will take against malicious actors. --YellowFrogger ( talk ) ( ✔ ) 00:47, 8 February 2022 (UTC)
 * jdp here, i pretty much had a similar fight about this whole licensing thing, i suggest you to credit anything taken from other sources if you wanna avoid problems, ok? (sorry for replying a tad bit late)

Need help with eliminating an annoying, but pesky topicon notice on :
Yes, as you already can tell by the thread title, I can't seem to figure out where that notice is coming from, as shown from this screenshot here:

Can anybody try to help me get rid of that? All I was doing was importing resolution templates, and suddenly, this popped up. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 23:19, 6 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Consider this request ✅ :) DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 23:48, 6 February 2022 (UTC)
 * As an aside after reviewing again, this issue (if it couldn't be resolved by contacting local support, since it was handled locally) would be vest suited to the CN and only SN if it seens like a deeper issue. --Raidarr (talk) 10:50, 8 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Would you mind elaborating as to how that came about/how to avoid that? That's some particularly vintage Wikipedia vandalism which really shouldn't be popping up. — Arcversin (talk) 01:23, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
 * The source of the problem was when I imported the Edit template, called Template:Edit. --DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 02:10, 9 February 2022 (UTC)

Request for a Dormancy Policy exemption for wiki Christipedia
Reason: Content on the wiki is read and/or used by many people. For instance, in the period 6 dec. 2021 - 5 januari 2022 we had 34920 visits.

There's this user possibly abusing multiple accounts.
On Terrible TV Shows Wiki, I noticed that there's this user who started making weird comments about moving pages they personally like or dislike to different wikis, them saying they hate a show in a biased and hateful way, and even vandalized the Sonic Underground page and those users are Scj323347, DiggaDigga2010, and ZIKORR. I don't know who the main account that's been using these accounts, but I do know that they all might be sock accounts of one another. Think you can look into this? SuperStreetKombat (talk) 22:42, 7 February 2022 (UTC)


 * If nothing is done about these users, then they'll continue to harm the wikis. SuperStreetKombat (talk) 16:49, 8 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Hello. You will probably get attention if you speak on our Discord CVT channel, or else they have already started an investigation. Also, stewards has access to CheckUser and they are mostly busy. --YellowFrogger ( talk ) ( ✔ ) 16:55, 8 February 2022 (UTC)
 * I much prefer if reports, especially more complex reports, to be file in a location such as this noticeboard. It makes it much easier to see what matters have been responded to, and which still need attention. The CVT channel is great for getting the attention of a CVT member to handle an ongoing situation, but is generally not a great place to file detailed reports. -- Void  Whispers 20:55, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Transferred from the Community noticeboard as this is only actionable by Stewards, though more evidence collection can and should be performed to make this actionable. cc to as the primary investigator for Qualitipedia, though I may look into it myself especially if there is local action that must be taken. Note that if it's only happening on one wiki this is frankly not a terribly big deal and can be resolved fine locally, though the multiple account abuse can be actioned on if sufficient evidence and a clear profile is provided here. Unless a Steward personally investigates first this is probably a matter to be first addressed by local admins/bureaucrats, myself included. --Raidarr (talk) 21:01, 8 February 2022 (UTC)
 * I sadly can't really see the similarity between those 3 accounts, unless I'm missing something. --DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 02:31, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
 * See my comment down below. SuperStreetKombat (talk) 05:39, 13 February 2022 (UTC)
 * SuperStreetKombat and DarkMatterMan4500, I've looked through many of the diffs by the three users on the two wikis where the principal problems are occurring, being  and , and I'm not seeing any evidence the two users may, in fact, be one person operating the accounts. Perhaps if you can point me to some specific and compelling behavioural evidence, that would be helpful. Thanks. Dmehus (talk) 19:53, 12 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Well, they don't exactly do the exact same type of comments or edits, but rather, they individually do their own types of hateful edits or comments around almost the same dates or close they contribute to the Shows Wiki and the fact that that their sole purpose is to hate on things for no reason. Both DiggaDigga2010 and Scj323347 demand that certain shows they like or dislike be moved to another wiki in similarly spiteful manners. Plus, they've all been around since either December 2021 or January 2022. Additionally, ZIKORR writes these "I F**KING HATE x show" around the same time that the former two users force a certain show to be moved. Also, EMannDoorMan might also be connected to all of this since he loves making comments about kicking others in the balls, just like Scj323347. SuperStreetKombat (talk) 05:33, 13 February 2022 (UTC)
 * The same show? If not, then that's too weak in my opinion. Additionally, I'd like to see some diffs here, please. Dmehus (talk) 05:49, 13 February 2022 (UTC)

Please Restore Accidentally Removed User Rights
I am new to Miraheze and to creating Wikis in general. I have just created a Wiki and tried to edit the user groups permissions (I only want specific confirmed users to contribute to my Wiki). I assumed that having created a Wiki, I am automatically its Administrator. I removed some permissions from Bureaucrats, and now can't edit my Wiki anymore. I asked for help on the Discord forum, and was advised to contact a Steward. It appears that I have removed the managewiki right. I request to please restore my settings to default. Thank you in advance! Dhamesvara (talk) 18:30, 9 February 2022 (UTC)

Please connect newusopediawiki and Undata
I introduced Wikibase (Client) to the newusopediawiki and tried to connect to Undata (data.uncyclomedia.org). However, it says "Database identifier of the repository being used. This value must be a valid Miraheze-hosted wiki database.". Is there any other way to connect Undata to newusopediawiki? If Steward people can, please connect newusopediawiki and Undata. Schwarz ・ Talk /  ウソペディア  07:13, 11 February 2022 (UTC)


 * I don't believe this is a  setting, so you should be able to make this change. If it is, which ManageWiki variable are you needing edited? Thanks. Dmehus (talk) 18:30, 13 February 2022 (UTC)


 * I'm trying to edit mh:newusopedia:Special:ManageWiki/settings/wikibaseclient. However, the Repository database (Undata) I want to connect to is not Miraheze-hosted, so I cannot register it. Sure, I don't need managewiki-restricted privileges, but probably due to a technical issue, I can't connect the newusopedia wiki with Undata. How can I connect to a wiki that is not Miraheze-hosted? Thanks. Schwarz ・ Talk  /  ウソペディア  03:19, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Oh, I'm wondering if this maybe requires adding an additional variable to ManageWiki, via GitHub, or maybe it's related to the Content Security Policy? Let me ping Reception123 to this thread, in his SRE capacity. Dmehus (talk) 07:45, 17 February 2022 (UTC)

Eric Bagwell just won't leave me alone:

 * The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section.
 * Local action seems to be proceeding as it should, so ✅. Dmehus (talk) 18:28, 13 February 2022 (UTC)

Yes, I know this seems pretty drastic, but I've been getting annoyed with him, constantly attempting to get into an edit-war, and I just want him to stop constantly messaging me at a rapid rate. I don't want an edit-war to start, as I just want him to leave me alone. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 19:12, 12 February 2022 (UTC)


 * DarkMatterMan4500, this doesn't need action from Stewards. As a Meta administrator, I would not be inclined to take any action here for what is an off-Meta matter. The user has made a legitimate request to be unblocked on the Qualitipedia wikis, so I'd suggest either (a) restoring their local user talk page access on all wikis and instructing him to appeal there or (b) unblocking him locally. If the issue persists, I would entertain a two-way, but not a one-way, interaction ban between the two of you on Meta Wiki. Dmehus (talk) 19:15, 12 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Yeah, the latter would do just fine. It's fine that he asked a legitimate question, but he's been asking that to a bunch of Qualitipedia admins, and it's been annoying them too. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 19:18, 12 February 2022 (UTC)
 * DarkMatterMan4500, what's his question? Is he blocked on any wikis? Why is he having to ask on Meta Wiki? If it's because of a block, I'm not seeing any evidence in support of your contention the user is Red hair, so unless you can provide that, I'd suggest assuming good faith, unblocking the user, and guiding the user with respect to Qualitipedia editing conventions, policies, and advice to ensure they use edit summaries that explain their edits, so as not to be inadvertently reverted as notionally vandalism. Dmehus (talk) 19:23, 12 February 2022 (UTC)
 * I'll unblock him when I stop and get something to eat. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 19:26, 12 February 2022 (UTC)
 * ✅, but do accompany the unblock(s) with a locally centralized, perhaps at advisory to the user, guiding the user as to accepted community editing best practices and pointing out where to find any locally establishes policies, too. Dmehus (talk) 19:34, 12 February 2022 (UTC)
 * If I recall correctly, Blazikeye did leave the user talk page access on both wikis they're blocked on. If they are unblocked, I would strongly advise that they be directed towards best editing practice, as they have been giving a good amount of users there a lot of grief for edit warring and false information. Marxo Grouch (talk) 19:57, 12 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Evidence of the user being a problem to others can be found in topics such as here, here, and here. Marxo Grouch (talk) 20:04, 12 February 2022 (UTC)
 * The links you provide are legitimate requests for appeal, and one of the reasons why the Qualitipedia administrator blocking practice by some of the longer tenured Qualitipedia administrators is problematic, in that if a user has their user talk page revoked on one wiki, they invariably have to ask administrators on another wiki. Additionally, aside from this, blocks on one wiki should reflect the behaviour on that wiki, and the blocking practice by some Qualitipedia administrators of blocking users on other Qualitipedia wikis where they've either (a) not edited at all or (b) not caused any local problems there is also problematic. Nevertheless, as I said, the user should definitely be guided as to editing norms, best practices, and rules, not simply unblocked with a typical "this is your final chance" log comment. Thanks. :) Dmehus (talk) 20:10, 12 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Ideally, I imagine, they should be instructed on what counts as true and false information. Details shouldn't be added if only that user thinks they are true. They should look for sources to prove that the information they want to add is truthful, especially if it's an opinionated page based on media they hate when general audiences give it positive reception. Marxo Grouch (talk) 20:31, 12 February 2022 (UTC)
 * , I have sent him a semi-formal message on one of the talk pages he is active on and if that does not work, I will quite formally post similar on his Meta talk page. For future cases, previous unblock requests across QP wikis I have processed the procedure is to direct them to their local talk page on Qualitipedia so it can be reviewed at a bureaucratic level if local talk page access has already been revoked. Frankly your approach has not satisfactorily resolved or directed the issue to a cleaner outlet, and that is part of the problem. The request is valid even if the format is messy and should indeed be curbed to a more clean method. --Raidarr (talk) 20:42, 12 February 2022 (UTC)

Two checkuser requests
My first request is about a suspected sockpuppet of the notorious ban evader WG8686. In the past, he made an account called Santino100, and recently I've spotted a similarly named account called SantinoEli8. If you look at some of SantinoEli8's contributions, his grammar resembles the poor grammar that WG8686 is known for. There's also these three accounts, which were all created within a fairly short amount of time and are all associated with the Qualitipedia wikis: Santino0, Santino1, SantinoEli.

My second request is about a user called Mictrons, who keeps causing disruption on Awful Movies Wiki with sockpuppets. The three I know of are Stroke bench, Soilacings, and Sanberry. All of these accounts got blocked on AMW for making bizarre arguments for wanting a certain page deleted or removed from the wiki's main page as seen in these logs and talk pages. Blazikeye535 (talk) 22:50, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Regarding the Mictrons case, DarkMatterMan4500 made a CheckUser request a while back regarding Mictrons and Stroke bench (and another account that showed up later named Thenstale). The responding steward, Void, noted that the possibility of the three accounts being linked was . I will note, however, that the two accounts you mentioned, Soilacings and Sanberry, as well as additional accounts I noticed such as Leilat and Salty01 have exhibited similar behavior to each other like demanding Cuties be removed from Awful Movies Wiki's front page and speaking in very garbled English. Marxo Grouch (talk) 19:23, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
 * I'd also like to bring Dancing Stickman into this report that Blazikeye535 has constructed, who came about just hours after TheFlamingDude98 was blocked from the Qualitipedia wikis. And to, before you ask me what made me think Dancing Stickman is a possible sockpuppet of WG8686, well, 2 or 3 things: Their typical responses when blocked, similar responses to that of TheFlamingDude98's post, constantly refers to Qualitipedia wikis as Reception wikis just like with another similar response from TheFlamingDude98. Also, please note the extensive edit history on the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Blue Rescue Team and Red Rescue Team article on the Awesome Games Wiki created by the master and was constantly edited by his socks, including Mr. Frying Pan, and even TheFlamingDude98 (whose username is quackingly similar to FlyingMan98). And also has an extensive overlap on another Pokémon related article which overlaps with TheFlamingDude98, Mr. Frying Pan, Banjo, Rambo, Crowbar, and a few other older WG8686 socks on that same article. There's WAY too many instances of this user being a returning editor, editing under the guise of being a new user. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 20:35, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Oh yeah, can't forget about this revert the user has made as well, which makes it even more suspicious. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 21:20, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
 * But all I did was fix grammar errors, and improved the pages. Blocking me over this, is just biased. :( Dancing Stickman (talk) 13:00, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
 * That's not the issue. The issue is the extensive edit style you made that looks like an identical match to WG8686's edits, as a lot of them have used Visual edits for most of the edits you have made. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 13:19, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Well I will make it more formal and very long. Like a essay, I can do it on my personal wiki if you want and then I can submit it to the pages :) Dancing Stickman (talk) 13:25, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
 * And also, a lot of the users here do use visual edit. So I think you should block those users as well. Dancing Stickman (talk) 13:26, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
 * I have also noticed that he has written this, saying he's going back to FANDOM, which actually raises a red flag here. Other previous socks of WG8686 have said this in the past. Compare that post he made to Crowbar's post, exactly mentioning him going back to said site, which makes it even strange. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 13:30, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
 * But I used to use FANDOM back in 2014 when the wikis I used were still around, until 2018 it was shutdown. I checked out the pages on the Miraheze site, until in 2022 I made a account on here to help out the wikis. Dancing Stickman (talk) 13:33, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
 * And what was that account exactly? It seems like you are telling us you've been here before. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 13:36, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
 * The Dancing Stickman account I am currently using right now. Is the account I used to help out the wikis. Dancing Stickman (talk) 13:38, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
 * I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, but I doubt what you're saying is true. Then again, I'll leave the rest to a Steward to determine. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 13:41, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Well, I suggest you to not delete those pages or revert the edits off of the banned users. Since it is considered Dancing On Graves of banned/retired editors. Because I seen some steward reports about it, a few days ago. Dancing Stickman (talk) 13:43, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
 * That comment you just made is identical to Flaming Fist's comment with the similar usage of the word "gravedigging" or "gravedancing". This makes your reply here even more incredibly suspicious. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 13:50, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
 * But that is what the stewards say as well, so I think you didn't know what it means at first. I mean I want you to improve your moderation, instead of accusing people of being someone else. You should check the IP address of the user, using checkuser as what I heard from the stewards, so no false positives will occur. Dancing Stickman (talk) 13:55, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
 * I will look into this further this evening, as part of a long-term continuing and sustainable solution that satisfies all parties concerned. Dmehus (talk) 14:29, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks so much. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 14:31, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Alright, I just hope this will turn out right. And not wrong, I just want the wikis to improve their pages. And not be incomplete, and have incorrect grammar in them. Dancing Stickman (talk) 14:45, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
 * We will have to see, but let's have a Steward make the determination this evening. Until then, you're on limbo. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 19:01, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

Let's stop here for now, as this would only intensify the gravity of this thread. --DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 13:52, 16 February 2022 (UTC)


 * Alright, I guess I will work on other pages on my own wiki for now. And then I am willing to give the source to you, if you are willing to add it. Dancing Stickman (talk) 14:02, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Also I heard these Reception Wikis (I know they are by a different name now, but still) ruined Miraheze's reputation. www.weirdcyclopedia.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Reception_Wikis Dancing Stickman (talk) 19:40, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
 * A significant portion of the link you provide here is obsolete or incorrect as well as pasted from a since-closed, also problematic wiki. Regardless if you are indeed a 'sock' or not (and unfortunately the former is compelling as much as I don't care for the term), I strongly advise you cease the obsession. If you are indeed WG, I am willing to have a proper discussion with you as well as give you a chance to be neutral towards or even contribute to a better status quo on the reception wikis, though at this rate it would be more likely on Discord or if you like, ShoutWiki rather than here on Miraheze given the circumstances. If you are not, I'm afraid the obsession, edit warring and highly suspect summaries on Meta have made you a target regardless. This will not end well in the course you're taking; consider this an offer from a more recently anointed QP bureaucrat as well as a warning as Global Sysop; if the sockpuppetry charge holds up this account as so many others would only be locked and your progress (aside from wasting time) will be nothing. --Raidarr (talk) 20:18, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Well I am not the WG dude mentioned, as he quit Miraheze a long time ago. But I heard he may come back one day, but I am not really sure when... Dancing Stickman (talk) 20:20, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Take the advice/opportunity, irrespective of the vague deflection above from an increasingly obvious answer. It will be available regardless of where or when a lock is issued against the current form, but things can only improve if you take a true step towards change. --Raidarr (talk) 20:32, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
 * But you could try and contact him on Discord though. Dancing Stickman (talk) 20:34, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Well, I'll leave the rest in the hands of a Steward now, and I won't be replying to this thread any further until something is done about it. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 02:06, 17 February 2022 (UTC)


 * The Santino* bunch are confirmed to each other, but anything else is too stale to know for certain who the master is (if any). Dancing Stickman is confirmed to TheFlamingDude98, and a new account TheSpaceJamLord. I've locked all three accounts as the two more recent accounts were created for ban evasion purposes. I would not be opposed to discussing account restrictions and a conditional unban, however this user appears to be refusing to get the message. I will continue locking until the ban evasion stops. I'll take a look into Mictrons shortly. -- Void  Whispers 19:28, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Mictrons is too stale for CU to be useful, unless you suspect there are other accounts involved. -- Void  Whispers 19:35, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
 * What about performing a CU on Sanberry? If he is sockpuppeting, then that would be his most recent account. --Blazikeye535 (talk) 19:43, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks for doing that. I was entirely provoked by that user, Dancing Stickman (who was OBVIOUSLY a sockpuppet of WG8686) the other day, and it just got to a point where I've had enough. I would hope this stops, as I can't stand him evading global locks, and acting ridiculous on threads like these and other forms of disruption elsewhere on this platform. It was clear that WG8686 was behind those accounts just to entirely waste our time. --DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 00:22, 19 February 2022 (UTC)

Wiki exemption request
Hi! Please, is there a way to make the wiki  exempt from the Dormancy Policy? I have several reasons for this:
 * The wiki has duplicate content stopped from the old blog I ran on the same subject. Therefore, it was futile for not being indexed properly in search engines and the content was cloying. After importing, I had to change some content and wrong words. I will be deleting the blog posts soon.
 * We don't expect many editors given the style of content (and the fact that there is a full community wiki with a 'similar' scope is actually far from that). Of course we appreciate new editors if possible, but it's not urgent at the moment.
 * Content has a certain Importance over help, which is definitely a reason for the exemption. There are no other wikis with a specific scope for this one, and we'll be over 30 articles soon and growing. Also, the contents generally don't need to be very 'busy', or rather, updated.
 * Content is precious.
 * I will soon ask to delete some useless wikis that I use to save maintenance storage. This is the second and last wiki that I ask for exemption, as it is extremely important.

Thanks! YellowFroggerAlt (talk) 02:14, 18 February 2022 (UTC)


 * You're not supposed to evade your block by using another account. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 02:16, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
 * YellowFrogger, this looks to have been a good-faith request; however, you should have used your user talk page. I will revert the block as sockpuppetry is managed by Stewards, lock your alternate account, and your alternate account will not be unlocked until all existing global and Meta Wiki user/editing restrictions of your main account have been lifted. Please consider this your absolute final warning on the matter. You are not to edit on Meta Wiki, other than your user talk page. You may use admin help to request assistance of a Meta administrator. If it relates to something within Stewards' purview, they will be sure to ping them to your request. As to your Dormancy Policy exemption request, this will be separately considered, and you informed of the outcome on your user talk page. Dmehus (talk) 02:34, 18 February 2022 (UTC)

Resignation of rights
Please remove my wikicreator flag. Thanks. --Magogre (talk) 04:18, 18 February 2022 (UTC)

Restore accidentally revoked rights
I created a new wiki about 10 minutes ago called scratchscprp (https://scratchscprp.miraheze.org/), and I was removing the "ManageWiki" right, as I had created another user group with this right (superadmin). I believed I had this group, but for some reason when I had "added" it, it did not add the user group, assuming the group was ready to go, I removed the ManageWiki right, again, assuming I had the group. I can't edit my wiki anymore and I wasn't even near close to finishing. GAMS2 (talk) 23:01, 18 February 2022 (UTC)


 * I've restored the managewiki permission to the bureaucrat group. Be sure to double check your group membership before removing such important rights next time :) -- Void  Whispers 23:22, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank you so much! I also wrote a literal note in the "reason for change" when I allowed for adding the group to myself, thanks again! GAMS2 (talk) 23:32, 18 February 2022 (UTC)

"Real children feet" wiki should be deleted
This is completely inappropriate and should be deleted, wouldn't you agree? I have no idea how something like this was even approved to begin with:

--Callipedia (talk) 04:47, 19 February 2022 (UTC)


 * We've been getting a lot of complaints about that particular wiki. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 12:26, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
 * How was that wiki approved in the first place? -- Cheers, Bukkit ( Talk • All Contribs ) 16:33, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Callipedia, this wiki has been reported, arguably verging on the point of ad nauseam. So, I'll ask you the same thing I've asked other users. How is it violation of Content Policy? Dmehus (talk) 16:53, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
 * No explanation regarding the content policy is needed. If the content policy allows things like this, then the policy itself is what needs to be revised.
 * Beyond that, I'm not going to argue with people defending this out of intellectual dishonesty. If it isn't removed, then I'll be contacting more important parties about it on my own.--Callipedia (talk) 17:52, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
 * I understand your dislike for that wiki, and I won't hide the fact that I don't like it either and would not access it myself. That being said, Dmehus is right, in order for us to investigate or delete a wiki, we do need to be told how exactly it violates our policies (or even a UK law, since I assume that is what you are implying). Saying "come on it's obvious" isn't enough, since while it may be obvious to you that doesn't mean it is to everyone. Removals do have to be according to policy, they can't simply be because we don't like something. There is no need to contact 'more important parties', please just tell us how it violates our policies or UK law if that is what you are alleging. Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 18:17, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Miraheze was founded on the basis of freedom of expression, and amending Content Policy to encroach on freedom of expression in such a narrowly defined use case would not be appropriate, in my view, and may actually have a "chilling effect" on the Miraheze platform as a whole. If that niche is targeted, what next? Potentially, this wiki could be examined for potential copyright compliance issues, but even still, I would prefer not to delete a wiki for copyright compliance issues, especially when that is not the real reason users have issues with this wiki. In any case, I've examined the wiki on that basis, and did not find sufficient evidence to prove/disprove any missing copyright attribution, as may have existed. Dmehus (talk) 18:48, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
 * i think some corrupt person approved this wiki Josephdapro08 (talk) 21:26, 22 February 2022 (UTC)
 * There was absolutely no corruption involved. ~ RhinosF1 - (chat)· acc· c -  21:27, 22 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Hey hey hey, none of the Meta admins were corrupt at all. Please remember the Code of Conduct at all times. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 21:29, 22 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Every complaint I know of on this subject has been a) ambiguous (not citing specific examples of issue), b) moralizing/emotional (again, without citable examples) and automatically assumes the very worst of a wiki (and its entirely nonexistent userbase) that at a content level is suspicious to me from both a) and b), but lacking in usable specifics to take policy-level action against. Having conferred with a few people on this, Miraheze as a platform would rather tolerate things that some, or even a large proportion of people don't care for as long as it lacks explicit issues rather than play gatekeep (especially with already created wikis) which just as easily results in issues on the other side of argument. If you don't like it and you don't have specific citable issues, don't worry about it. At most watch if those suspicions become something more. Today someone acting purely on emotional backlash decided to make an edit against the wiki, which compromises its ongoing fade into obscurity and eventual deletion. Again, don't care for it, let it die. It's silly when the people who so despise it start becoming the people who keep it alive. --Raidarr (talk) 23:42, 22 February 2022 (UTC)

Request to remove Bureaucrat status for resigned user
One of our wiki Bureaucrats on the Unofficial English Twisted Wonderland Wiki (User:Sugarbeans) has officially resigned from the team. We would like to request for the removal of their Bureaucrat role in line with this. Xnotyuki (talk) 06:57, 19 February 2022 (UTC)


 * Xnotyuki, ✅, as the local wiki user rights log entries make it clear enough the user was intending to resign from all advanced permissions, but technically restricted from removing the  bit by the wiki's ManageWiki configuration, which is also the recommended ManageWiki configuration. Should the user request the   permission again, you, or another bureaucrat on the wiki, can re-add it in line with the local wiki policies. Dmehus (talk) 16:59, 19 February 2022 (UTC)

Asking to make me the Administrator here
Reason: I was in Miraheze for about 2 years, I initially went to Miraheze because I was interested in moving my wiki in the Fandom to Miraheze but because of problems the activity was canceled but after I was taken down from the Fandom I tried to move here, my friend has a wiki here that is no longer used (link : https://tolololpedia.miraheze.org/wiki/Halaman_Utama) I've opened the wiki but now I want to get more permissions so I can manage the wiki completely ChioGaming2007 (talk) 14:11, 19 February 2022 (UTC)


 * ChioGaming2007, please request permissions locally from any bureaucrat, in line with any local policies (should any exist), including, but not limited to, on their user talk page. If no response is received within a few days or so, please return here, asking Stewards to implement a local sitenotice to advertise your permissions request prominently and allow any community members to express views (whether positive or negative). After about a week or so, rights may be granted by Stewards. Dmehus (talk) 17:08, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
 * The bureaucrat has long retired or is no longer active ChioGaming2007 (talk) 21:48, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
 * That may well be. Nevertheless, while I realize this is a bit bureaucratic (pardon the pun, which was not intended), our processes call for following this formality, mainly in cases on wikis where there are other community members. Dmehus (talk) 21:51, 19 February 2022 (UTC)

Can the Delightful Music and Songs Wiki and Worst Music and Songs Wiki please be reopened?
In this month, the Music reception wikis were closed. However, there are reasons why it NEEDS to be reopened. They can be helped with, and there are stll a lot of edits to do. MarioBobFan (talk) 00:59, 22 February 2022 (UTC)


 * MarioBobFan, please see this blog post on the matter. These two wikis have significant Content Policy issues, mainly around improperly copied content from  and its sister wiki, without attribution. Even if attribution is added, it becomes a content fork wiki of those wikis, requiring Steward mediation. I've suggested two possible options to Raidarr, in his   capacity. One is to make the wikis private, inviting editors into the wiki to assist with tagging duplicated pages for deletion or assisting with other remediation activities. The other is a potential Qualitipedia Wiki local RfC proposing to close and delete the wikis, encouraging editors to edit on the very similar non-Qualitipedia wikis. Hope this helps. Dmehus (talk) 01:09, 22 February 2022 (UTC)
 * In supplement to this and in my local capacity, I have opted to simply close the wikis and allow manual addition of anyone who is interested in bettering them. Feel free to volunteer at the blog dmehus linked, and be one of the parties to remove duplicate content. If successful they can be reopened and left in the hands of the users who were interested enough to do the work to give them a future. --Raidarr (talk) 09:35, 22 February 2022 (UTC)

 * Steward followup, having intended to address this later myself.


 * There is extremely compelling behavioral association between the style of Meta targeting regarding a specific set of wikis and one user from them. The targeting is performed with similar points, similar destinations to act/post on, and trends of angles to pursue that have become quite predictable. The responsible account is now locked, simply for abuse of multiple accounts. The case is more or less long-term abuse now, particularly in light of an ignored advisory.


 * The user may well not be WG8686 and in fact a 'successor', perhaps the incredibly likely alias Nidoking with associated activity on ShoutWiki. It doesn't matter too much to me, only the actions that have been done. I will accept a sincere attempt to reach out to my Raidarr alias there to discuss things. Otherwise this thread and contributions by its initiating user on Meta are part substance and part exaggerative leaning to slander, with nothing reasonable to discuss in this format.


 * Some point hold up, but as has been expressed countless times before this is not the way to go about it, and indeed the cited instances of incivility have been followed up with advisories. Indeed, local admins of the involved wikis still need work to improve, but that is a process that requires time and patience, and people with an axe to grind seeking to grind it locally and/or on Meta are not useful to that end. Again, I will humor discussion when it is indeed in a more useful format, particularly through the stated wiki's central location. --Raidarr (talk) 23:17, 25 February 2022 (UTC)

Ever since DarkMatterMan4500 had been promoted to leader, he has been harassing and swearing at users via deletion and block logs, and made various rude edits on Crappy Games, Awesome Games, Terrible TV Shows, Best TV Shows, Fresh Websites, and Rotten websites wiki.

 * Not only are you failing to provide any evidence that you aren't WG8686, but both links you provided don't really prove anything.

Given said user's persistence, "fuck off" might have just been DarkMatterMan4500 venting frustration, which is kinda understandable.
 * While Blazikeye535 does have a history of blunt and sometimes rude comments, the fact that you were pestering DarkMatterMan4500 about a reverted edit kinda proves his point about you being an annoyance in addition to you not still not showing evidence that you aren't WG8686.

Creating a wiki in the same subdomain as an old one I asked to delete
Hi! I apologise for any trouble as a result of my request. A few months ago, I had a wiki in the altepoch.miraheze.org subdomain and I was its only bureaucrat. I asked to have the wiki deleted and it that was done. Now, if possible, I would love to have a wiki in that subdomain and asked to create one. However, my request was denied on the grounds that it already exists and I should ask its bureaucrat for permission to edit it or go on the wiki and reopen it. I can't do that as when I try to access it I get a 404 not found error.

I'd really appreciate any help on this but I also understand if this is a closed case since I did ask to have the wiki deleted in the past :) Altepoch (talk) 21:53, 25 February 2022 (UTC)


 * Hello, and thank you for choosing Miraheze. This behavior is typical, as the database isn't dropped yet. Please make a Phabricator account if you haven't already, and request for the database to be dropped there. -- Cheers, Bukkit(Public) ( Talk • Contribs ) 23:44, 25 February 2022 (UTC)

Can my IP address stopped getting blocked?

 * Taking a look at your CentralAuth data, your best course of action would be to try and appeal your block. Besides, your block isn't indefinite and will expire in the summer, so you can alternatively wait for that. <span style="background:linear-gradient(90deg,crimson,indigo, #ADD8E6); -webkit-background-clip:text !important; -webkit-text-fill-color:transparent;">Marxo Grouch (talk) 03:40, 26 February 2022 (UTC)
