== Invitation to participate in a research == |
|||
Hello, |
|||
The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Wikipedia, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this '''[https://wikimediafoundation.limesurvey.net/294789?lang=en anonymous survey]'''. |
|||
You do not have to be an Administrator to participate. |
|||
The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Research:Wikipedia Administrator Recruitment, Retention, and Attrition|Meta page]] and view its [[wmf:Special:MyLanguage/Legal:Administrator Experiences 2024 Survey Privacy Statement|privacy statement]] . |
|||
Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns. |
|||
The file [[:File:SeaSpanBarge.jpg]] has been [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed for deletion]] because of the following concern: |
|||
<blockquote>'''Unused, low-res, no obvious use.'''</blockquote> |
|||
Kind Regards, |
|||
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be [[WP:DEL#REASON|deleted for any of several reasons]]. |
|||
[[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Research|WMF Research Team]] |
|||
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your [[Help:edit summary|edit summary]] or on [[File talk:SeaSpanBarge.jpg|the file's talk page]]. |
|||

|||
Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed deletion process]], but other [[Wikipedia:deletion process|deletion process]]es exist. In particular, the [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|speedy deletion]] process can result in deletion without discussion, and [[Wikipedia:Files for discussion|files for discussion]] allows discussion to reach [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] for deletion.<!-- Template:Proposed deletion notify --> --[[User:Minorax|<span style="font-family: monospace, monospace; color:#69C;">Minorax</span>]]<sup>«¦[[User talk:Minorax|'''talk''']]¦»</sup> 07:48, 14 January 2023 (UTC) |

== Page deleted == |
|||
Hello, |
|||
Hello, I’m new to wiki as an editor. I’m trying to get understanding as to why a page I made was deleted? I followed the steps and made sure i did citations for links and information that was posted. [[User:Editor0816|Editor0816]] ([[User talk:Editor0816|talk]]) 18:17, 17 January 2023 (UTC) |
|||
:Hi Editor0816 and welcome. The article was requested for deletion following [[WP:NOTWEBHOST|Not a web host]] policy. If you'd like I can restore the draft somewhere in your user space and you could submit via the [[WP:AFC|Articles for creation]] process although I'd suggest ensuring that [[WP:N|notability]] is met. Articles generally belong in the article space not under a User: page. If you have any further questions or would like me to restore to assist with going thru articles for creation please advise. -- [[User:Tawker|Tawker]] ([[User talk:Tawker#top|talk]]) 00:50, 18 January 2023 (UTC) |

I recently invited you to take a survey about administration on Wikipedia. If you haven’t yet had a chance, there is still time to participate– we’d truly appreciate your feedback. The survey is anonymous and should take about 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Research:Wikipedia Administrator Recruitment, Retention, and Attrition|Meta page]] and view its [[wmf:Special:MyLanguage/Legal:Administrator Experiences 2024 Survey Privacy Statement|privacy statement]]. |

== Deletion of [[Bernard Middleton]] == |
|||
Take the survey '''[https://wikimediafoundation.limesurvey.net/294789?lang=en here]'''. |
|||
Hello! I recently created the article [[Bernard Middleton]] that you deleted after it was flagged for copyright infringement. The page was not an integral copy of the stated source (though it was indeed used as one of the handful of references used, and cited). Perhaps I unintentionally left a chunk of text from the source as it was, without any alteration? In any case, I would like to rectify my mistake; would it be possible to restore the page in some way, with the omission of the offending content, so that I could rework it without starting from scratch? Thanks, and apologies! [[User:RickMorais|RickMorais]] ([[User talk:RickMorais|talk]]) 22:14, 29 January 2023 (UTC) |
|||
::Hi Rick - thanks for the note - let me see what I can do, the copyvio report had indicated a 65% match and there were quite a few paragraphs that were matching entirely with the source article. Can you give me a few days, it will likely be a little bit of work to go thru selectively. -- [[User:Tawker|Tawker]] ([[User talk:Tawker#top|talk]]) 22:19, 29 January 2023 (UTC) |

== Your cascade-protected page == |
|||
[[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Research|WMF Research Team]] |
|||
Hi there. Somehow or other the issue of cascade-protected pages came to my attention, and I noticed that you have a cascade-protected page in your userspace ([[User:Tawker/protectlist]]). You made all of those page protections over a couple of days in August 2007, and it's not clear to me why that page is cascade-protected (or for that matter, why the pages listed were salted, as they'd only had one previous deletion). I know this was forever ago, and it strikes me that it was some sort of experiment that you and a couple of other admins undertook, possibly when cascade protection was being introduced. When you have a chance, could you take a look at this? It's not urgent, obviously; nobody noticed it for 16 years. Thanks. [[User:Risker|Risker]] ([[User talk:Risker|talk]]) 04:41, 12 April 2023 (UTC) Just noting that I came across it when looking at [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Special:ProtectedPages&wpfilters%5B%5D=cascadeonly this page] |

|||
:Whoa, that is a blast from the past. It took a little bit to find the time to dig in (as you said, 16 years so hardly a critical need) - I don't think there is a need for the page to exist anymore, as such I have simply deleted it. Thanks for catching it! -- [[User:Tawker|Tawker]] ([[User talk:Tawker#top|talk]]) 14:03, 1 May 2023 (UTC) |

BAG membership
[edit]Hello. You are listed as a member of the Bot Approvals Group but it appears you may not be actively helping in this area anymore. Do you intend to return to BAG-related activity on Wikipedia, or are you happy to be removed from this list? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 12:57, 14 December 2023 (UTC)
Administrative permissions and inactivity reminder
[edit]This is a reminder that established policy provides for removal of the administrative permissions of users who have made fewer than 100 edits over a 60-month period. You are receiving this annual reminder since you have averaged less than 50 edits per year over the last 5 years.
Inactive administrators are encouraged to reengage with the project in earnest rather than to make token edits to avoid loss of administrative permissions. Resources and support for reengaging with the project are available at Wikipedia:WikiProject Editor Retention/administrators. If you do not intend to be engaged with the project in the foreseeable future, please consider voluntarily resigning your administrative permissions by making a request at the bureaucrats' noticeboard.
Thank you for your past contributions to the project. — JJMC89 bot 00:35, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks - yes I have had significant time constraints - I will look to re-engage where I can. -- Tawker (talk) 22:18, 2 October 2024 (UTC)
