I reverted your vandalism of Fallout (computer game), restoring the information you deleted. I can understand why you'd want to remove it, but one cannot talk of Fallout without mentioning the most salient aspect of the Fallout fan community. --Scumbag|Talk Scumbag 18:21, May 10, 2005 (UTC)
Congratulations!
Congratulations! It's my pleasure to let you know that, consensus being reached, you are now an administrator. You should read the relevant policies and other pages linked to from the administrators' reading list before carrying out tasks like deletion, protection, banning users, and editing protected pages such as the Main Page. Most of what you do is easily reversible by other sysops, apart from page history merges and image deletion, so please be especially careful with those. You might find the new administrators' how-to guide helpful. Cheers! -- Cecropia | explains it all ® 23:30, 14 May 2005 (UTC)

Hello Pawel, I made the article off-line with a normal database: one record for each article. Then we (I and 8-9 others contributors) added the articles with a special tecnique called copy and paste :-) So, I think I can't help you much. Sorry. Ciao 151.30.161.130 13:51, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Pl wiki
Ausirze, ja się w to nie mieszam. Odszedłem z polskiej wiki i nie chce mi się w to polskie bagienko zagłębiać. Z mojej pobieżnej analizy wynika że zaiste Kwietnia zabanowano za jego poglądy i bez wystarczających dowodów przeciwko niemu. A potem, gdy zaczął bojkotować ban (najwyraźniej niesłuszny), zaczęto go blokować za to że się pojawiał. Słowem: zesłany do więzienia bez wyroku i bezprawnie, a potem sądzony jeszcze za ucieczkę z więzienia, w którym w ogóle być nie powinien.
Ale to oczywiście analiza powierzchowna i z oddali. Że źle się na polskiej wiki dzieje wiadomo nie od dzisiaj. Nie trzeba mnie porównywać z nikim, w grupie ludzi, których z wiki wypchnięto jest wystarczająco dużo sensownych wikipedystów, by znaleźć dość egzemplów. Halibutt 05:19, Jun 17, 2005 (UTC)
Hello! I've noticed your interest in creating logos, barnstars, or your past artistic ability! Thus, I just wanted to let you know that the pre-round, an artistic competition, is now open at Wikipedia:Mind Benders (Shortcut: WP:MIND)! The competition is open to everyone and is seeking a logo/trophy, similar to Barnstars, to be placed on every winner's page. We urge you to help us out and submit an entry! Afterwards, the normal rounds, each consisting of ten or more fun, logical, brain-stimulating questions will open. Why don't you give it a try when it opens! Look forward to seeing your contribution.

Earth 2160
Yo! I noticed you checked out the Earth 2160 page. I created it awhile back, and am quite a fan of the series. I was wondering if you own it? And if so, is it any good? I completed the UCS and Lunar campaigns on Earth 2150 but the ED's was way too difficult...The new plot sounds pretty cool, pity the UCS got fully mechanized, makes them hard to like now heheh. Its a pity games like the Earth series aren't more popular, 2150's graphics were by far the finest for RTS's in 2000, still looks pretty good now too...yet people still have a preferance for junk like C&C Generals!

Invitation to the Forgotten Realms project
Hi,
We are working on a Forgotten Realms Project to map Toril (mostly Faerûn, at the present). Since you contributed quite a lot on a Forgotten Realms-specific entry, I'd like to invite you to join the project, so we could improve the “Mapping the Realms” project.
The goal is to create a sort of World Factbook for the Realms. This means:
- A consistent content
- Use of templates
- Entries should be limited to “sovereign places”: states and free cities, as well a moderately-inhabited place such as the Western Highlands.
On top of this, we also plan to cover Lost Empires, such as Pelvuria or Imaskar and, of course, Netheril
- The project is located here
- The Geographical index of Toril is a good start to get a visual of had been done, as well as the Halruaa entry.
Main contributors are presently
If you know some other person who would be interested, feel free to forward the invitation!
Feel free to take a look. We hope to see you soon mapping the Realms with us! Reply to David Latapie 13:00, 8 December 2005 (UTC)

Semi-protection
I've left this message on your Meta page as well, but I wanted to make sure you got this. At Wikipedia:Semi-protection policy, a couple users and myself are attempting to gather consensus about a possible change in editing. So as not to keep the community out of the loop, we've been posting to user talk pages, which seems to have worked. If you can add your thoughts to the talk page, it would be greatly appreciated. We've gone over a few issues, ranging from perception of anti-wiki to time limits, and recycling pagemove code, so you might want to check out #Rehashing to get up to speed. Thanks in advance, Mysekurity(have you seen this?) 04:18, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
Report an error link on sidebar
I'm sorry for adding the link without consulting anyone, but I think a link to a quick form (an an "add new section link" is just that) for reporting errors is something we could use - that's what the readers are more likely to edit, as being given a form to quickly fill in and click "save" in the sidebar is more intuitive to them than writing an e-mail or writing it at a talk page (where often no one will see it). If you think it's a bad idea, remove it, but it's working quite fine at Polish Wikipedia - so far people don't report bugs but actual factual errors in articles which we managed to fix thanks to that. Ausir 02:54, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
- Firstly, Ausir, my apologies for removing it. I've removed the "Report an error" link because I think it is bound to lead to lots of erroneous bug reports generated from users who don't understand how Wikipedia works. Also, it just presented the user with a blank edit screen to add a section to Wikipedia:Report an error without explaining what sort of thing the user should write there or when they should make a bug report. Thus, I think it is not a good idea to have it there; I think something better would be a good idea, however, perhaps a link to a page which explains what to do if you think you've found a bug. It probably works OK on the Polish Wikipedia due to a lower traffic volume, but I'm a bit apprehensive about having it on en. Best regards, --NicholasTurnbull | (talk) 03:01, 28 December 2005 (UTC)

I was working on airports and ended up at Thu as a code for Thule Air Base. I found that before it was vandalised that it was a redirect to Sauron.

Request your attention to the GoldToeMarionette case
GoldToeMarionette (talk · contribs) had a WP:RFCU inappropriately completed on their account by Jayjg (talk · contribs) and Hall Monitor (talk · contribs) blocked the account after it was identified as a multiple account despite their being no violation of Wikipedia policy by GoldToeMarionette. These users did not respond to requests to undo the action.
Other steps in dispute resolution have been tried
- Comments on RFCU itself [1]
- Hall Monitor was emailed with no reply
- GoldToeMarionette posted on the account's User and Talk Pages seeking assistance when the talk page was protected without the issue being discussed. User:GoldToeMarionette User_talk:GoldToeMarionette
GoldToeMarionette notified article contributors that illustrative examples were subject to an AfD. The account strictly followed the WP:SPAM#Internal_spamming guideline. The AfD was without controversy. GoldToeMarionette did not participate in the vote. HereToCleanup removed the posts following the AfD in accord with the widely accepted Wikipedia Guideline Wikipedia:Spam#Internal_spamming that states "Clean up your mess. For example, after engaging in cross-posting to promote some election, be sure to remove those cross-posts after the election is complete." [7]
- GoldToeMarionette Contributions
- Breakdown of GoldToeMarionette's Posts
- Example post to 66 article contributors
- Example post removal from 66 article contributors
- HereToCleanup's Contributions
- No AfD participation
Since GoldToeMarionette was strictly following Wikipedia Policy, there should not have been a Check User completed by Jayjg. Hall Monitor only blocked the account because it was labeled as a sockpuppet by Jayjg's completed Check User. Absent policy violation it should not have been processed in RFCU or been blocked. I am asking for your help to confirm that policy was not violated, administrative action should not have been taken, and request that the administrative action be reversed by unblocking GoldToeMarionette and unprotecting the talk page. Thank you for your time with this request. RealTime 02:07, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

Alai
Hi, I noticed that you created a fork of Alai (Enderverse) from List of Ender's jeesh. I ask that you reconsider. Per WP:FICT, all minor characters should be merged in a parent "list of" article. Alai, for all intents and purposes, is extremely minor. He's always in the background, without too much of a major influence overall through the quartets. Do you agree? Or do you think he is major enough to deserve his own article. Hbdragon88 17:22, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Yeah, I've been a bit lazy there. I was planning to merge those two IF characters in (possibly to List of minor characters in the Ender's Game series) and most of the Wiggin family characters into, say, something like Wiggin family. FYI, see Han Tzu (Ender's Game) and Alai (Ender's Game) for where they used to be before I merged them. But if I merge all of those in, do you think that Alai/Han Tzu should be merged too? Hbdragon88 17:34, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Well, the idea was to have Wiggin family, merge Theresa/John Paul fully, whiel leaving links to Peter/Valentine/Ender. I'd still be willing to merge Graff and Rackham - Rackham plays an absurdly minor role (always mentioned by name, mentors ender one one book), while Graff is kind of the catalyst. Even if it can be expanded, I still think that it's relatively minor enough to stick in a "list of". Hbdragon88 19:29, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- ~Well, Rackham again plays a major role in Shadow of the Giant and in the prequel short story Mazer in Prison. Ausir 20:12, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
Okay. Still disagree, but for now, I'm more interested in preserving the edit history. I've just recreated Alai (Ender's Game) and Han Tzu (Ender's Game). Could you please tag Alai (Enderverse) and Han Tzu for deletion via {{db-author}}? Then, with those pages gone, we can move Han Tzu (Ender's Game) to Han Tzu. Hbdragon88 02:32, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
Second opinion
I just created Enderverse Intergalactic Medicine Show to deal with the two-line stubs consisting of Cheater, Mazer in Prizon, and [{Pretty Boy (short story)|Pretty Boy]]. However, I don't want to start fixing redirects until I now that's a good title. What do you think? Should it be moved to a better title? hbdragon88 03:47, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

ru.wiki is in problems. Could you look?
Hello, Ausir. I wanted to attract your attention to problems of the sister project. Some recent editions show that http://ru.wikipedia.org has administrative peciliarities. You know some Russian, and I expect it will be sufficient to understand, what is happening. I know that you are occupied, so, I suggest ony one example: [8]
My doubts in prudence of the administration are based on the following observations
- The paper was nominated for deletion while tag "перерабатываю" (analogy of "under construction") was there.
- The nominator did not discuss the content at the article's talk page.
- Another user suggests the deletion for absence of references, and then deletes there text with references.
Such actions look strange, independently on the content of the article.
I was not successful to attract atention of admins of ru.wiki to such violations, so, I address to the international community. Will you look please? I should greatly appreciate your opinion. Do you think that, something could be wrond with election of administrators? The announcement about the election is not seen (I found it when begun to dig the example above), could it be the origen of the problem?

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Proposed deletion of The Man in the Moon Stayed Up Too Late
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article The Man in the Moon Stayed Up Too Late, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Snotling
Hi there. I noticed that you made a contribution to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Snotling indicating that you think the article should be kept. Your comments don't appear to address the fact that no mention of the Games Workshop "snotling" can be found in reliable, third-party, published sources. As the AfD debate has been relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached, I thought you might like to elaborate on why you think the article should be kept, bearing in mind WP:RS.

Dear Ausir...You are invited to come back to discuss WikiProject Media franchises.

Speedy deletion of Lem
A tag has been placed on Lem, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent. If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Treygdor (talk) 20:43, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Mad Max 4: Fury Road.

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mad Max 4: Fury Road (2nd nomination). Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).
You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Proposed deletion of The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings
The article The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- This article shows no signs of notability and doesn't have a release date mentioned. Since there are no reliable sources in the article, there is nothing to establish notability of this software title.
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}}
will stop the Proposed Deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The Speedy Deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and Articles for Deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. ArcAngel (talk) 10:59, 18 September 2009 (UTC)

File source problem with File:Henryk Walezy.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Henryk Walezy.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.
If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged per Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, F4. If the image is copyrighted and non-free, the image will be deleted 48 hours after 09:25, 3 May 2010 (UTC) per speedy deletion criterion F7.

MSU Interview
Dear Ausir,
My name is Jonathan Obar user:Jaobar, I'm a professor in the College of Communication Arts and Sciences at Michigan State University and a Teaching Fellow with the Wikimedia Foundation's Education Program. This semester I've been running a little experiment at MSU, a class where we teach students about becoming Wikipedia administrators. Not a lot is known about your community, and our students (who are fascinated by wiki-culture by the way!) want to learn how you do what you do, and why you do it. A while back I proposed this idea (the class) to the community HERE, where it was met mainly with positive feedback. Anyhow, I'd like my students to speak with a few administrators to get a sense of admin experiences, training, motivations, likes, dislikes, etc. We were wondering if you'd be interested in speaking with one of our students.
So a few things about the interviews:
- Interviews will last between 15 and 30 minutes.
- Interviews can be conducted over skype (preferred), IRC or email. (You choose the form of communication based upon your comfort level, time, etc.)
- All interviews will be completely anonymous, meaning that you (real name and/or pseudonym) will never be identified in any of our materials, unless you give the interviewer permission to do so.
- All interviews will be completely voluntary. You are under no obligation to say yes to an interview, and can say no and stop or leave the interview at any time.
- The entire interview process is being overseen by MSU's institutional review board (ethics review). This means that all questions have been approved by the university and all students have been trained how to conduct interviews ethically and properly.
Bottom line is that we really need your help, and would really appreciate the opportunity to speak with you. If interested, please send me an email at obar@msu.edu (to maintain anonymity) and I will add your name to my offline contact list. If you feel comfortable doing so, you can post your name HERE instead.
If you have questions or concerns at any time, feel free to email me at obar@msu.edu. I will be more than happy to speak with you.
Thanks in advance for your help. We have a lot to learn from you.
Sincerely,
Jonathan Obar --Jaobar (talk) 04:30, 14 February 2012 (UTC)

Wasteland 2 Wiki
You write "the wiki is official, with permission from inXile". Can you point to something which shows that it is in fact an official wiki? What makes it "official" in your experience? --82.171.13.139 (talk) 14:53, 18 March 2012 (UTC)
- It has been granted "official wiki" status by inXile, with permission from Brian Fargo himself. This is the thread for the wiki in the ofifical forum, in which (admittedly, by myself) it is called the official wiki - note that the thread was made a "sticky" by inXile's forum admin. Ausir (talk) 23:09, 18 March 2012 (UTC)
- How can an outsider like me verify that inXile/Fargo granted that Wiki the "official" status? I do see you and other people call it "official", but that's not a reliable source. In fact, someone writes about the Wiki problems and claims that Curse "pays better" and that you're employed by Curse. --82.171.13.139 (talk) 01:18, 19 March 2012 (UTC)
- I am indeed a Curse employee. And Curse does have arrangement with several game developers/publishers wherein we host official wikis. Same is true for e.g. Minecraft, for which we run official forum and wiki as stated on the official site. We would not claim official status if we did not have blessing for it from the developer/publisher - we do host many wikis that are not officially recognized, such as Wiki SWTOR. If we announced our wiki to be official like we did here for Wasteland 2 and we did not have it, Curse, Inc. would be liable in court for such false claims. I see no reason for you to doubt it until proven otherwise. Ausir (talk) 02:16, 19 March 2012 (UTC)

Article upgrade assistance request (Pre-translation stage)
Seasons Greetings,
This is in reference to a relatively new umbrella article on en-wikipedia named Ceremonial pole. Ceremonial pole is a human tradition since ancient times; either existed in past at some point of time, or still exists in some cultures across global continents from north to south & from east to west. Ceremonial poles are used to symbolize a variety of concepts in several different world cultures.
Through article Ceremonial pole we intend to take encyclopedic note of cultural aspects and festive celebrations around Ceremonial pole as an umbrella article and want to have historical, mythological, anthropological aspects, reverence or worships wherever concerned as a small part.
While Ceremonial poles have a long past and strong presence but usually less discussed subject. Even before we seek translation of this article in global languages, we need to have more encyclopedic information/input about Ceremonial poles from all global cultures and languages. And we seek your assistance in the same.
Since other contributors to the article are insisting for reliable sources and Standard native english; If your contributions get deleted (for some reason like linguistics or may be your information is reliable but unfortunately dosent match expectations of other editors) , please do list the same on Talk:Ceremonial pole page so that other wikipedians may help improve by interlanguage collaborations, and/or some other language wikipedias may be interested in giving more importance to reliablity of information over other factors on their respective wikipedia.
This particular request is being made to you since your user name is listed in Wikipedia:Translators available list.

Hi
I am writing on behalf of Wikiversity Journal of Medicine, an open access, peer reviewed medical journal, with no publication charges. You can find more about it by reading the article on The Signpost featuring this journal. Recently there has been a proposal to define a separate sister project for journals under Wikimedia and to move the pages under journal.wikimedia.org
similar to the case of WikiSpecies. You have been one of the early contributors to Wikispecies. Could you please guide me as to what is to be done for the same?
Seeking your cooperation. DiptanshuTalk 14:11, 18 August 2016 (UTC)
Extended confirmed protection
Hello, Ausir. This message is intended to notify administrators of important changes to the protection policy.
Extended confirmed protection (also known as "30/500 protection") is a new level of page protection that only allows edits from accounts at least 30 days old and with 500 edits. The automatically assigned "extended confirmed" user right was created for this purpose. The protection level was created following this community discussion with the primary intention of enforcing various arbitration remedies that prohibited editors under the "30 days/500 edits" threshold to edit certain topic areas.
In July and August 2016, a request for comment established consensus for community use of the new protection level. Administrators are authorized to apply extended confirmed protection to combat any form of disruption (e.g. vandalism, sock puppetry, edit warring, etc.) on any topic, subject to the following conditions:
- Extended confirmed protection may only be used in cases where semi-protection has proven ineffective. It should not be used as a first resort.
- A bot will post a notification at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard of each use. MusikBot currently does this by updating a report, which is transcluded onto the noticeboard.
Please review the protection policy carefully before using this new level of protection on pages. Thank you.
This message was sent to the administrators' mass message list. To opt-out of future messages, please remove yourself from the list. 17:47, 23 September 2016 (UTC)
Two-Factor Authentication now available for admins
Hello,
Please note that TOTP based two-factor authentication is now available for all administrators. In light of the recent compromised accounts, you are encouraged to add this additional layer of security to your account. It may be enabled on your preferences page in the "User profile" tab under the "Basic information" section. For basic instructions on how to enable two-factor authentication, please see the developing help page for additional information. Important: Be sure to record the two-factor authentication key and the single use keys. If you lose your two factor authentication and do not have the keys, it's possible that your account will not be recoverable. Furthermore, you are encouraged to utilize a unique password and two-factor authentication for the email account associated with your Wikimedia account. This measure will assist in safeguarding your account from malicious password resets. Comments, questions, and concerns may be directed to the thread on the administrators' noticeboard.

A new user right for New Page Patrollers
Hi Ausir.
A new user group, New Page Reviewer, has been created in a move to greatly improve the standard of new page patrolling. The user right can be granted by any admin at PERM. It is highly recommended that admins look beyond the simple numerical threshold and satisfy themselves that the candidates have the required skills of communication and an advanced knowledge of notability and deletion. Admins are automatically included in this user right.
It is anticipated that this user right will significantly reduce the work load of admins who patrol the performance of the patrollers. However,due to the complexity of the rollout, some rights may have been accorded that may later need to be withdrawn, so some help will still be needed to some extent when discovering wrongly applied deletion tags or inappropriate pages that escape the attention of less experienced reviewers, and above all, hasty and bitey tagging for maintenance. User warnings are available here but very often a friendly custom message works best.
If you have any questions about this user right, don't hesitate to join us at WT:NPR. (Sent to all admins).MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:47, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

The article Roboticist has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- This article cites no sources and presents an incomplete and personalized summary of Wikipedia articles on robotics. The article was created in 2007 and has had a number of issues with vandalism and self-promotion over the years. Given that it is ten years old and still has issues meeting Wikipedia standards, deletion is likely the best course of action.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Blueclaw (talk) 01:27, 18 April 2017 (UTC)

Hello! Your recent edit to this article left the IPA you perhaps copied from the Oxford dictionary floating at the beginning of the paragraph. I would just "fix" it, except that I'm not 100% clear on what's hapening here. The pronunciation actually in the dictionary is ˈmɔɪrʌɪ, but what you have left in the pronunciation slot looks more plausible to me. But I get less clear what ʌ means every time I read about it. Anyway, perhaps you can have a look. Imaginatorium (talk) 12:44, 8 April 2018 (UTC)

Administrator account security (Correction to Arbcom 2019 special circular)
ArbCom would like to apologise and correct our previous mass message in light of the response from the community.
Since November 2018, six administrator accounts have been compromised and temporarily desysopped. In an effort to help improve account security, our intention was to remind administrators of existing policies on account security — that they are required to "have strong passwords and follow appropriate personal security practices." We have updated our procedures to ensure that we enforce these policies more strictly in the future. The policies themselves have not changed. In particular, two-factor authentication remains an optional means of adding extra security to your account. The choice not to enable 2FA will not be considered when deciding to restore sysop privileges to administrator accounts that were compromised.
We are sorry for the wording of our previous message, which did not accurately convey this, and deeply regret the tone in which it was delivered.
For the Arbitration Committee, -Cameron11598 21:03, 4 May 2019 (UTC)

WikiProject assessment tags for talk pages
Thank you for your recent articles, including Bohdan Butenko, which I read with interest. When you create a new article, can you add the WikiProject assessment templates to the talk of that article? See the talk page of the article I mentioned for an example of what I mean. Usually it is very simple, you just add something like {{WikiProject Keyword}} to the article's talk, with keyword replaced by the associated WikiProject (ex. if it's a biography article, you would use WikiProject Biography; if it's a United States article, you would use WikiProject United States, and so on). You do not have to rate the article if you do not want to, others will do it eventually. Those templates are very useful, as they bring the articles to a WikiProject attention, and allow them to start tracking the articles through Wikipedia:Article alerts and other tools. For example, WikiProject Poland relies on such templates to generate listings such as Article Alerts, Popular Pages, Quality and Importance Matrix and the Cleanup Listing. Thanks to them, WikiProject members are more easily able to defend your work from deletion, or simply help try to improve it further. Feel free to ask me any questions if you'd like more information about using those talk page templates. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 09:02, 21 October 2019 (UTC)

Hey, can you tell me if there is something new in her personal biography?

Administrators will no longer be autopatrolled
A recently closed Request for Comment (RFC) reached consensus to remove Autopatrolled from the administrator user group. You may, similarly as with Edit Filter Manager, choose to 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.

How we will see unregistered users
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 better tools to help.
If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.
We have 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 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. /Johan (WMF)

New administrator activity requirement
The administrator policy has been updated with new activity requirements following a successful Request for Comment.

- 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.

If this was the first article that you created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
The page Category:Fictional American people of Polish descent has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appeared to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, such as at Articles for deletion. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
Please do not recreate the material without addressing these concerns, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If you think this page should not have been deleted for this reason, or you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. — JJMC89 (T·C) 23:52, 11 January 2024 (UTC)
