Thanks for the block --as you probably realize, the reason I did not do it myself was that I wanted others to see the situation. DGG ( talk ) 22:48, 16 March 2020 (UTC)

Actually DGG, I wasn't aware that you were "on the case", so to speak. I started from here. I had a look at the mainspace contribs, and deleted contribs on the articles edited, and the sockpuppetry was so blindingly obvious I just had to act (ordinarily I would send to SPI but this one would have been a waste of time as a foregone conclusion). I'm cleaning up after them now and will probably come across your involvement shortly :). --kingboyk (talk) 22:54, 16 March 2020 (UTC)

Looks like that's all cleaned up now, mostly thanks to you. Thanks for the message and assistance. --kingboyk (talk) 23:07, 16 March 2020 (UTC)

I was about to leave this person a message, but saw you blocked them for socking! Hopefully I won't get anymore pings from this guy! Govvy (talk) 13:05, 17 March 2020 (UTC)

Hi there, I noticed you just added a "Bibliography" section to Alan McGee.. were these sources for the article text? Or did you add them as a list of related books? If it's the latter, I've usually seen this part labelled "Further reading".. is that what you intended? Jdcooper (talk) 22:57, 16 March 2020 (UTC)

@Jdcooper: The latter is what I intended. If you want to change it (feel free) you should know I also added the same to Creation Records. --kingboyk (talk) 23:00, 16 March 2020 (UTC)

Ah ok. Usually I take Bibliography to mean books that were used as sources and quoted multiple times (lesser-spotted wikipedia referencing method that is nonetheless quite elegant!) Jdcooper (talk) 23:18, 16 March 2020 (UTC)

@Jdcooper: I personally would consider a "Bibliography" to be the book equivalent of a "Discography", i.e. books written by the subject of the article. However, I've seen "Bibliography" used to list books about the subject, which is why I used that heading.

define:Bibliography on Google says it means either "a list of the books referred to in a scholarly work, typically printed as an appendix" (your version), or "a list of the books of a specific author or publisher, or on a specific subject" (my version, but with an "or", making it 3 meanings!). Pesky English language!

"Further reading" seems rather open-ended and like an invitation to add crud or be subjective. Hpwever, as the list I added is not intended to be a list of references used in the articles, nor were they all written by McGee, I concur with your reasoning and having checked the guidelines it would appear to be the preferred wording too. Thanks for the messages. --kingboyk (talk) 23:30, 16 March 2020 (UTC)

Kingboyk, for future reference, please do not edit the WT:GAN page directly. (I reverted your most recent edit when I saw it; as it happens, the bot came through and agreed with your edit, but editors should as a general rule stay away from editing the page.)

If there are any issues with GANs, then the problem is almost certainly with either the {{GA nominee}} template (in this case) or the GA review page (or both); fixing them will result in the GAN page healing itself the next time Legobot runs, which is approximately every 20 minutes. In this case, the thing to do when you delete a review page (as you did with Talk:Ktheju tokës/GA1) is to immediately undo the review change and transclusion that Legobot did on the article talk page; if you can't do it immediately, then when you can (since I'm not an admin, it's when I can, since I never know when an admin will come along and handle my speedy deletion request of the review page when a nominator also opens a review or abandons a review after opening it)—the "Example" reviewer, which shows up when the Talk page's GA nominee template says "onreview" but there's no review page to be found, will disappear once "onreview" is removed from the "status" field. You can't remove "onreview" before the review page deletion is completed, because Legobot will just retransclude the review page the next time it runs.

That's probably more than you wanted to know, but I hope it turns out to be useful. BlueMoonset (talk) 04:59, 23 March 2020 (UTC)

@BlueMoonset: Yeah, I worked it out for myself eventually that editing the templates on the article's talk page should do the trick. As I mentioned on your talk page, I wasn't convinced the bot was going to co-operate and saw (and see) no harm in editing the page if the bot will overwrite the changes. Anyway, no bother; I was just trying to help an editor who had accidentally marked themselves as reviewer of their own submission, and now know how to deal with it if there is a next time. Thanks for the message and explanation. --kingboyk (talk) 05:04, 23 March 2020 (UTC)

Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article It's Grim Up North you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period.

The article It's Grim Up North you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needing to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass; otherwise it may fail. See Talk:It's Grim Up North for issues which need to be addressed.

I see that you are the creator of this page. I'm the guy. Cabbie, Lee who used to be on the radio. I have been in a VA hospital for a while now and I was looking at the page and I was wondering if I could get some help getting some more information on there that is either missing or incomplete or not correct. I emailed someone yesterday with my driver's license and government ID and I'm waiting to hear back from them. Cabbie333 (talk) 19:44, 20 April 2020 (UTC)

@Cabbie333: Hi. Sorry to hear you're in hospital. I didn't create the page Lee Mroszak, but my bot created the talk page (meaning, it was created by an automated process). If you need any help, a good place to ask is at Wikipedia:Teahouse. --kingboyk (talk) 10:50, 28 April 2020 (UTC)

Hi, Kingboyk. I ask for help. I made a plugin. The ProcessArticle function has finished. Then the AWB works. And writes "Ready to save". How at this moment to display the msgbox ("Processing is completed")? Thank you. With best regards Игорь Темиров (talk) 16:10, 25 April 2020 (UTC)

@Игорь Темиров: I'm sorry, but I haven't worked on AWB for years, so you'd be better off asking over at WT:AWB.

Isn't there an event you can attach to?

If you can't get any help from the AWB folks come back to me and if I have a time I'll grab the latest code and have a look. --kingboyk (talk) 10:55, 28 April 2020 (UTC)

It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate in the 2020 election, please review the candidates and submit your choices on the voting page.

Guideline and policy news

• A request for comment is open that proposes a process for the community to revoke administrative permissions. This follows a 2019 RfC in favor of creating one such a policy.
• A request for comment is in progress to remove F7 (invalid fair-use claim) subcriterion a, which covers immediate deletion of non-free media with invalid fair-use tags.
• A request for comment seeks to grant page movers the delete-redirect userright, which allows moving a page over a single-revision redirect, regardless of that redirect's target. The full proposal is at Wikipedia:Page mover/delete-redirect.
• A request for comment asks if sysops may place the General sanctions/Coronavirus disease 2019 editnotice template on pages in scope that do not have page-specific sanctions?
• There is a discussion in progress concerning automatic protection of each day's featured article with Pending Changes protection.

Established policy provides for removal of the administrative permissions of users who have not made any edits or logged actions in the preceding twelve months. Because you have been inactive, your administrative permissions will be removed if you do not return to activity within the next month.

Inactive administrators are encouraged to rejoin 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 rejoin the project in the foreseeable future, please consider voluntarily resigning your administrative permissions by making a request at the bureaucrats' noticeboard.

A tag has been placed on Talk:Volodymyr Polikarpenko requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

The page redirects to itself

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, pages that meet certain criteria may be deleted at any time.

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. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and 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. 🐔 Chicdat  ^{Bawk to me!} 10:28, 12 April 2021 (UTC)

Guideline and policy news

• Consensus was reached to deprecate Wikipedia:Editor assistance.
• Following a Request for Comment the Book namespace was deprecated.

Technical news

• Wikimedia previously used the IRC network Freenode. However, due to changes over who controlled the network with reports of a forceful takeover by several ex-staff members, the Wikimedia IRC Group Contacts decided to move to the new Libera Chat network. It has been reported that Wikimedia related channels on Freenode have been forcibly taken over if they pointed members to Libera. There is a migration guide and Wikimedia discussions about this.

Arbitration

• After a Clarification request, the Arbitration Committee modified Remedy 5 of the Antisemitism in Poland case. This means sourcing expectations are a discretionary sanction instead of being present on all articles. It also details using the talk page or the Reliable Sources Noticeboard to discuss disputed sources.

Guideline and policy news

• Consensus has been reached to delete all books in the book namespace. There was rough consensus that the deleted books should still be available on request at WP:REFUND even after the namespace is removed.
• An RfC is open to discuss the next steps following a trial which automatically applied pending changes to TFAs.

Technical news

• IP addresses of unregistered users are to be hidden from everyone. There is a rough draft of how IP addresses may be shown to users who need to see them. This currently details allowing administrators, checkusers, stewards and those with a new usergroup to view the full IP address of unregistered users. Editors with at least 500 edits and an account over a year old will be able to see all but the end of the IP address in the proposal. The ability to see the IP addresses hidden behind the mask would be dependent on agreeing to not share the parts of the IP address they can see with those who do not have access to the same information. Accessing part of or the full IP address of a masked editor would also be logged. Comments on the draft are being welcomed at the talk page.

Arbitration

• The community authorised COVID-19 general sanctions have been superseded by the COVID-19 discretionary sanctions following a motion at a case request.
