Hi! I'm reaching out because I saw you recently removed the birth year category from Austin Russell (entrepreneur) because it is uncited. I've posted some COI edit requests on the article talk page, including a citation for the birth year. If you're willing to take a look, I'd really appreciate the help. Thank you! Mary Gaulke (talk) 15:48, 23 March 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks for your note, Mary. I see my role as keeping the site clean and make sure the WP:BLP is being followed. Beyond my area of interest (mainly NZ topics), I don't engage in work and especially not when paid editing is involved. That said, I do commend you for being open and upfront about what it is that you do. Schwede66 22:37, 23 March 2022 (UTC)
- Understood. Thanks for the reply! Mary Gaulke (talk) 22:48, 23 March 2022 (UTC)

Administrators' newsletter – April 2022
News and updates for administrators from the past month (March 2022).
- An RfC is open proposing a change to the minimum activity requirements for administrators.
- Access to Special:RevisionDelete has been expanded to include users who have the
deletelogentry
anddeletedhistory
rights. This means that those in the Researcher user group and Checkusers who are not administrators can now access Special:RevisionDelete. The users able to view the special page after this change are the 3 users in the Researcher group, as there are currently no checkusers who are not already administrators. (T301928) - When viewing deleted revisions or diffs on Special:Undelete a back link to the undelete page for the associated page is now present. (T284114)
- Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Procedures § Opening of proceedings has been updated to reflect current practice following a motion.
- A arbitration case regarding Skepticism and coordinated editing has been closed.
- A arbitration case regarding WikiProject Tropical Cyclones has been opened.
- Voting for the Universal Code of Conduct Enforcement guidelines has closed, and the results were that 56.98% of voters supported the guidelines. The results of this vote mean the Wikimedia Foundation Board will now review the guidelines.
New administrator activity requirement
The administrator policy has been updated with new activity requirements following a successful Request for Comment.
Beginning January 1, 2023, administrators who meet one or both of the following criteria may be desysopped for inactivity if they have:
- Made neither edits nor administrative actions for at least a 12-month period OR
- Made fewer than 100 edits over a 60-month period
Administrators at risk for being desysopped under these criteria will continue to be notified ahead of time. Thank you for your continued work.

Thanks for cleaning up my edits!
Caligulady (talk) 23:03, 18 April 2022 (UTC)
- No trouble, Caligulady. I see this a lot; the Visual Editor isn't necessarily good at creating references and it pays to check what it produces. Schwede66 23:10, 18 April 2022 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on Category:NZHPT historic areas register in the Nelson Region indicating that it is currently empty, and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion. If it remains empty for seven days or more, it may be deleted under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself. Liz Read! Talk! 04:22, 21 April 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks, Liz. It was empty and I've thus deleted it. Schwede66 04:36, 21 April 2022 (UTC)

Can you review my draft?
Hi sir,
Can you review my draft?
User:JellyBooN/Vakfe (retailer)
Thanks, --JellyBooN (talk) 06:17, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
- Well, I don't speak Turkish, JellyBooN. I suggest that at the very least, you look up how to use
trans-title
as part of the use of Template:cite web. The other referencing parameter that is missing ispublisher
. Who is it that publishes those references? That will be vital to know to determine whether they count as WP:RS. Because without that, how would any reviewer know whether WP:GNG is met? And may I ask - if this company is notable, why does it not even have an article on the Turkish Wikipedia? Schwede66 07:59, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
Lee Vandervis
Hi Schwede - the Lee Vandervis article was just extensively edited by someone using the user name User:Leevandervis. I have reverted the edit and posted a comment on both his and the article's talk pages. Thought I would give you a heads up because of your past involvement in this articles attacks. NealeWellington (talk) 10:56, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
- Awesome. Seems you have it all under control. Good response. I’ll keep an eye on the situation, NealeWellington. Schwede66 02:31, 28 April 2022 (UTC)
Moving papers around on your desk
So you say "it seems more logical to have a section on history as the first one and not the last one". M'kay, fine, but did you *read* the section? The first sentence of the section? What does it mean? I wish people would actually *read* the text in addition to addressing one or another specialized nit. Curtis Island (New Zealand). Shenme (talk) 00:54, 28 April 2022 (UTC)
AfD
Hi Schwede - hope you are well. You may or may not be able to help with this AfD. Thank you. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me

Re:Edit summaries
I'm sure you're mostly a force for good and helpful around the project. Go refresh your knowledge of WP:BITE, though, and lay off the snarky commentary in edit summaries. It's neither helpful, welcome, or tolerated. When you actually think editors might need a reminder to check things, message them directly and politely.
As is, the disambiguation was wrong, not my link, and you would've more helpfully realized that LEPRA will always mean the agency abbreviated by that name and never a genus of butterflies. — LlywelynII 23:44, 5 May 2022 (UTC)
