Glad you deleted this page. There were already some people complaining about her, but she was in the process of construction. But I didn't understand why the reason for the exclusion was because was nonsense. YellowFrogger (✉ Talk  ✐ Edits ) 22:52, 11 December 2021 (UTC)


 * There was one sentence in that whole page that was correct. The rest was simply going to cause more trouble. ~ RhinosF1 - (chat)· acc· c -  22:54, 11 December 2021 (UTC)

Recent emergency actions
Hi RhinosF1,

I'm Doug, a Trust and Safety responder for Miraheze, and I noticed your recent revision deletions in which you cited as "emergency action" concerning the Privacy Policy while concurrently referring the matter to the Trust and Safety team. Intended or not, this can certainly be construed as taking Trust and Safety actions on a team on which you're not apart. While I can conceivably understand your thinking, please also note that having conferred with my supervisor in private channels, it was also not correct. The user in question is now able to legally consent to the disclosure of information provided by them, under their current or former usernames.

Thanks,

 * A follow up email is being sent to T&S and the user. Any official actions are done from my official account not my volunteer one. ~ RhinosF1 - (chat)· acc· c -  09:07, 13 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your reply, but in any case, why cite "emergency actions" or Privacy Policy? Wouldn't it be preferable to be more articulate in citing community-oriented reasons for revision deletion? Doug (talk) 09:11, 13 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Emergency because it's until Trust & Safety can give a directive to fully remove the logs or do that themselves and Privacy policy is the policy they've breached. I don't think we have any better local policy on outing users who deliberately had their accounts hidden. ~ RhinosF1 - (chat)· acc· c -  09:13, 13 December 2021 (UTC)
 * If I might offer a comment as a fellow Meta sysop, we do have "inappropriate personal information" as a deletion reason. While it's not added to MediaWiki:Revdelete-reason-dropdown, I personally wouldn't have any issues in you adding that as a revision deletion reason. That being said, I know that John has said that he personally doesn't favour revision deleting entries where suppression is required, mainly because the entries are likely to be lost or otherwise not be as noticeable. As to whether suppression is required, I personally don't see the need, speaking as a Steward, as it's only the user's username. Dmehus (talk) 09:21, 13 December 2021 (UTC)
 * The whole point of the username being changed is to protect the users identity. If so, we should make our best effort to do that. When PII is involved, it should be removed as quick as possible and discretely. I personally dislike the explicit revdel reason that the content needs OS and prefer something like Wikipedia's other authorised deletion option. ~ RhinosF1 - (chat)· acc· c -  09:24, 13 December 2021 (UTC)

AC tool
Hi Rhinos. What is that AC tool. I searched meta, but couldn't get any results or documentation. --Magogre (talk) 05:20, 14 December 2021 (UTC)


 * Account creation tool. It's a google form users can submit if they can't get past reCaptcha. ~ RhinosF1 - (chat)· acc· c -  07:50, 14 December 2021 (UTC)

I understand your concern about my translations, but they are all from the language I understand respecting namespace names, etc, but I will assure you that there is nothing wrong. But because you're want to block me out? I've changed my behavior a lot in the last few weeks! YellowFrogger (✉ Talk  ✐ Edits ) 17:11, 16 December 2021 (UTC)
