A [[Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship/2021_review/Proposals#Passed:_7D_Remove_autopatrolled_from_default_toolkit|recently closed]] Request for Comment (RFC) reached consensus to remove [[WP:Autopatrolled|Autopatrolled]] from the administrator user group. You may, similarly as with [[WP:EFM|Edit Filter Manager]], choose to [[Special:UserRights/{{BASEPAGENAME}}|self-assign]] this permission to yourself. This will be implemented the week of December 13th, but if you wish to self-assign you may do so now. To find out when the change has gone live or if you have any questions please visit the [[Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard#Administrators_will_no_longer_be_autopatrolled|Administrator's Noticeboard]]. 20:06, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

: No, I blocked the account, and then unblocked it following an unblock request. [[User:PhilKnight|PhilKnight]] ([[User talk:PhilKnight#top|talk]]) 13:15, 31 December 2024 (UTC)
== Vague remarks by IP in rangeblock ==
::Well, after the unblock request was accepted, they’ve gone to nominate articles that I created (possibly because I filed the SPI). I don’t think that that sort of editing is considered as good-faith editing; it is disruptive at best.

== Assistance ==
Hi PhilKnight. You recently did a range block [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Special:BlockList&ip=2409:4053:2D0E:5B4F:D35F:7A38:8B61:26FD] on {{u|2409:4000:0:0:0:0:0:0/24}} for disruptive editing. Now an IP in that range has made some vague remarks about "taking further action". They admit to being tied to an SPI, [[Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Anshuman Tiwari Official]]. Do you think this is an implied legal threat? --[[User:Drm310|Drm310]] <span style="color:red">🍁</span> ([[User talk:Drm310|talk]]) 14:19, 27 December 2021 (UTC)
:Hi Drm310, that was a mistake, I only meant to block the /64 range. I have unblocked. Regarding the IP, it's possible to assume good faith and assume they meant take it to ArbCom or something. That said, if they admit being tied to an SPI, they probably deserve to be blocked. [[User:PhilKnight|PhilKnight]] ([[User talk:PhilKnight#top|talk]]) 21:10, 27 December 2021 (UTC)

:@[[User:PhilKnight|PhilKnight]] As I had reply to [[User:Aoidh|Aoidh]] at their talk page on the same cross-posted topic. It's truly lovely to have [[WP:ASPERSIONS]] and [[WP:PERSONALATTACKS]] to start 2025. On ''[[Lovely Runner]]'', [[Special:Diff/1265923832|my edit]] that removed "{{tq|Material that fails verification be removed}}" per [[WP:VERIFY]] with "{{tq|WP:VERIFY, WP:OR, WP:SYNTH}}" in the edit summary however so lovely we have [[Special:Diff/1266612084|this edit by our dear editor]] that apparently by following VERIFY, OR, SYNTH was ASPERSIONS as "{{tq|WP:BITE [and not assuming] WP:FAITH}}"??? On the same article, the inline citation 48 nor 49 doesn't explicity stated that it's awarded for ''Lovely Runner'' either, further evidencing that my edit was aligned with Wikipedia's policies. On [[List of awards and nominations received by Byeon Woo-seok]], believed to be related to [[Talk:List of awards and nominations received by Byeon Woo-seok#What is the consensus to revert Major Association section?|this discussion]] which our dear editor couldn't give me any acceptable neutral explanation to restore their preferred layout and also likely related to [[Special:Diff/1265723317|this edit]] reverting their incorrect updates to the Infobox's count by going against the [[Template:Infobox awards list/doc|documentation]]. In addition, rather perplexing that it was such a thing to discuss first for non-controversial edits when the edits made were per [[WP:BOLD]] and didn't requires [[WP:CONSENSUS]]. Lastly, where exactly was the ASPERSIONSly the [[WP:3RR]] violations and/or "edit warring" violation on either articles??? I would pretty much like you as an administrator to give me an reasonable explanation on such behaviour otherwise this behaviour would continue by going around administrator's talk page and cross-posting the same topic.

Less than 48 hours after your unblocking {{User|S Das0406}} on their pledge not to threaten legal actions, they made [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Sainath468&diff=1062818241&oldid=1056663287 this edit] including a proposal to take Wikipedia and/or another editor to an official government commission in India, the [[National Commission for Backward Classes]] aka [[Other Backward Class|OBC Commission]], presumably for official action or response. Not a lawsuit threat, per se, but clearly an "other government process" under [[WP:LEGAL|LEGAL]]. Also pinging {{ping|RegentsPark}}.

I got a notice about my discussion on some talk page, yes I do raise my voice against some editors but no where I gave any legal warning to any editor after you unblock me. But still if u think it was a mistake I will not ask to talk any type of action on my account. But yes I do believe some editors are deliberately using their power while creating some Wikipedia pages where they are very selective to some issues. Here I will rest my case .

[[User:M.Bitton|M.Bitton]] who you recently blocked continues to engage in edit warring on other articles, particularly on [[Battle of Sidi Brahim]] where he is persistently disrupting [[User:Robinvp11|Robinvp11]]'s contributions.

== How we will see unregistered users ==

<section begin=content/>
Hi!

You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.

When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.

Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin '''will still be able to access the IP'''. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on [[m:IP Editing: Privacy Enhancement and Abuse Mitigation/Improving tools|better tools]] to help.

If you have not seen it before, you can [[m:IP Editing: Privacy Enhancement and Abuse Mitigation|read more on Meta]]. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can [[m:Global message delivery/Targets/Tech ambassadors|subscribe]] to [[m:Tech/News|the weekly technical newsletter]].

We have [[m:IP Editing: Privacy Enhancement and Abuse Mitigation#IP Masking Implementation Approaches (FAQ)|two suggested ways]] this identity could work. '''We would appreciate your feedback''' on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can [[m:Talk:IP Editing: Privacy Enhancement and Abuse Mitigation|let us know on the talk page]]. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.

Thank you.

== Sayed dynasty -Dehli sutanate. ==

Hi hope you are doing well. I wrote to you about Sayed dynasty. The mention of Afghan, in the origin section (as i said you can see in history and talk page)is very necessary as per various important reasons. I provided both primary and secondary sources ( you can see in both history and talk page) that out-weigh the other 2 theories- specially the second one which have no support at all. But for "various reasons" it gets deleted by a specific user. I have seen you contributing and solving issues like this. I really hope this time you come with a solution. It may be in the form of inviting third party, making Wikipedia to intervene or something else ,which you might know better. Thank you and have a good day.[[Special:Contributions/84.211.45.132|84.211.45.132]] ([[User talk:84.211.45.132|talk]]) 22:06, 11 January 2022 (UTC)

Hi again. I was wondering whether you have studied my case and came to a conclusion?. As i said before the evidence is overwhelming specially about an article where there is -very few- literature "if any" is available. There is the generally rejected sayyed claim and then the Afghan claim for which i provided enough primary and secondary sources, and mind it i repeat myself, there is very little known about them. All i am asking is the mention of Afghan too in the origin section of both khizr khan and sayed dynasty page. Thank you.[[Special:Contributions/84.211.45.132|84.211.45.132]] ([[User talk:84.211.45.132|talk]]) 17:50, 5 February 2022 (UTC)

:Hi. I think we have solved the whole issue. First i provided him primary source muntakhabul lubab, where is clearly says they were afghan.Then i provided 2 secondary sources for him, 1- (The History of India, as Told by Its Own Historians: The Muhammadan Period) where he said it is very old source and the 2-(African Elites in India: Habshi Amarat), where he said the whole book should be readable. and now i think there is -no- excuse left for him in my 4th source and 3rd scondary source by a very well respected professor

: But if you look at other two "theories" this one is way powerful backed up with tone of reliable sources. There was no consensus, lets say about punjabi origin but some how its there, though with a very weak and -only- source. And the sayed origin is generally rejected (it is stated in the article too).

== New find sources template for Japan-related stuff ==

I'm still quite shaky with all the Lua stuff, so I was wondering if you could help create a {{tlx|Find sources Japan}} template so we could use the various sources they use in the three templates they use over on jawiki: [[:ja:Template:Find sources]], [[:ja:Template:Find sources mainspace]], and [[:ja:Template:Find sources video games japanese language]]. This would make finding Japanese sources a lot easier by providing links to many of the best sources in Japan. I made [[:Module:Find sources/links/J-STAGE|this module]], but I don't want to make more until I'm sure of what needs to be done. I appreciate any help.

No, I blocked the account, and then unblocked it following an unblock request. PhilKnight (talk) 13:15, 31 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Well, after the unblock request was accepted, they’ve gone to nominate articles that I created (possibly because I filed the SPI). I don’t think that that sort of editing is considered as good-faith editing; it is disruptive at best. Best, Reading Beans, Duke of Rivia 11:29, 1 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I have re-blocked them. PhilKnight (talk) 16:57, 1 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Assistance

[edit]

"I am writing to request assistance regarding recent edits to the "Lovely Runner" article. editor Paper90ll has repeatedly removed information regarding Lovely Runner achievment at the Asia Artist Awards. Despite these reversions, the user continued to rollback the changes and tagging me Ultraviolet Rollback. I would appreciate guidance on how to resolve this ongoing dispute and ensure that the article accurately reflects the subject matter." Puchicatos (talk) 13:32, 1 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@PhilKnight As I had reply to Aoidh at their talk page on the same cross-posted topic. It's truly lovely to have WP:ASPERSIONS and WP:PERSONALATTACKS to start 2025. On Lovely Runner, my edit that removed "Material that fails verification be removed" per WP:VERIFY with "WP:VERIFY, WP:OR, WP:SYNTH" in the edit summary however so lovely we have this edit by our dear editor that apparently by following VERIFY, OR, SYNTH was ASPERSIONS as "WP:BITE [and not assuming] WP:FAITH"??? On the same article, the inline citation 48 nor 49 doesn't explicity stated that it's awarded for Lovely Runner either, further evidencing that my edit was aligned with Wikipedia's policies. On List of awards and nominations received by Byeon Woo-seok, believed to be related to this discussion which our dear editor couldn't give me any acceptable neutral explanation to restore their preferred layout and also likely related to this edit reverting their incorrect updates to the Infobox's count by going against the documentation. In addition, rather perplexing that it was such a thing to discuss first for non-controversial edits when the edits made were per WP:BOLD and didn't requires WP:CONSENSUS. Lastly, where exactly was the ASPERSIONSly the WP:3RR violations and/or "edit warring" violation on either articles??? I would pretty much like you as an administrator to give me an reasonable explanation on such behaviour otherwise this behaviour would continue by going around administrator's talk page and cross-posting the same topic. — 🎉🎆 Paper9oll 🎆🎉 (🔔 • 📝) 13:38, 1 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with Aoidh's comments. PhilKnight (talk) 18:11, 2 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Tuwintuwin/Archive

[edit]

Hello, PhilKnight,

I saw that you closed this SPI case but the main sockmaster, Tuwintuwin, wasn't blocked at all. Was this an oversight? Just wondering as I've run into their editing this evening. Liz Read! Talk! 08:19, 2 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I just saw that they were indefinitely blocked but were unblocked only 3 days later! Liz Read! Talk! 08:22, 2 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Arjayay and DH85868993 keeps reverting my edits.

[edit]

Hello. First of all, I wanted to say I'm really sorry for my wrongdoings. Second, the two users keep reverting my edits for "Nurburgring". I put the correct info for the Nordscheliefe section, but the two keep reverting it. Click this link and you will see that my info is correct: [1]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KsLi7HgSuhI Anyway, please stop them from putting wrong data. Thank you, and again, I'm sorry. 2603:8000:99F0:93A0:9932:FB79:1D30:444B (talk) 17:49, 2 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You should use the talk page - Talk:Nürburgring - to establish consensus, and not edit war. PhilKnight (talk) 18:01, 2 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Okay. Thank you. And again, I'm sorry. 2603:8000:99F0:93A0:9932:FB79:1D30:444B (talk) 18:05, 2 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello!!!

[edit]

I was wondering how to archive stuff? And can you also mentor me as en wiki is different from simple en wiki? Cactus🌵 spiky ouch 08:40, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Cactusisme, you seem to have figured out how to archive stuff based on your user talk page. I don't mentor users, I suggest you find someone at Wikipedia:Adopt-a-user/Adoptee's Area/Adopters. PhilKnight (talk) 11:14, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, thanks!! Cactus🌵 spiky ouch 11:32, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
How about the bot? Cactus🌵 spiky ouch 11:32, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, I don't understand the question "How about the bot?" PhilKnight (talk) 11:43, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@PhilKnight Archiving bot Cactus🌵 spiky ouch 11:43, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I have never used an archiving bot, so I am not the right person to ask. PhilKnight (talk) 11:45, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Anyone you know who uses it? Cactus🌵 spiky ouch 11:46, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Looking at Wikipedia:Adopt-a-user/Adoptee's Area/Adopters Rosguill uses archivebot and is currently accepting adoptees. You could try them. PhilKnight (talk) 12:34, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
ok Cactus🌵 spiky ouch 12:35, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Edit warring on Battle of Sidi Brahim

[edit]

M.Bitton who you recently blocked continues to engage in edit warring on other articles, particularly on Battle of Sidi Brahim where he is persistently disrupting Robinvp11's contributions. He is also being hostile on the talk page, which shows that he is treating editing as a battleground. Surely this warrants a stricter block? 185.165.190.128 (talk) 00:26, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I know of at least one highly disruptive sock (obsessed with me and certain articles, such as Dominican Restoration War and Dominican War of Independence) who is from the same geolocation as you. For the rest, the article's talk page speaks for itself. M.Bitton (talk) 00:29, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Looking further in the socking, it looks like Norprobr and Phạm Văn Rạng could well be one and the same. M.Bitton (talk) 00:58, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I don't see evidence of serious edit warring. The sock puppet investigations will be actioned by other admins. PhilKnight (talk) 05:14, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
