Autoblock and accountsHello, I understand why the IP was blocked - I work at a school, and unfortunately it happens. But I thought one of the benefits of having an account and of signing in to that account was to avoid such blocks. I'm pretty sure in the past I've been able to log in and post even when the IP at the school is blocked. I wasn't even able to post here and ask you the question (and when I used your email link which you provide my messages were returned). --Richardson mcphillips (talk) 04:36, 23 November 2014 (UTC)
On the Road Again Tour - protection warranted?Hi M.O.P. - would you mind semi-protecting On the Road Again Tour for a few days, given the persistent nonsense plague it seems to have attracted recently? I have made an RFP, but given the backlog I thought I'd ask you as someone who's seen it first-hand. Thanks! ]
Re: Personal attack and abuse of multiple accountsI was mentioned as being a sock in this discussion [2]. I don't understand, I asked to be blocked myself [3]. I didn't vandalize anything to lead to a block, I had asked to be blocked on my other account Sock Puppets "A sockpuppet is an online identity used for purposes of deception." How could I be misleading anyone when I freely admit that I am the same person as StanTheMan87, and state this on my page? Furthermore, I find it unfair that, as I did nothing wrong or didn't break any rules when asking for a block, that when I make another account to contribute in order to circumvent a block (that I can't remove) and that I asked for (I no longer require it), I get declared a 'sock'.

Re: rollbackThanks for the message. I can definitely be more careful to use undo/edit summaries in the future, but I'm not sure it gets at the root of the problem, which is the user/s (I'm not sure exactly how many there are, since there are obviously some socks/meatpuppets operating at the article) repeatedly attempting to impose new changes without consensus. In reverting these disruptive edits in the past, I've used summaries, but I feel like I'm repeating myself and shouting into a void. They already know their edits are wrong and why they're wrong. Can you offer any advice? –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 18:30, 27 November 2014 (UTC)
Page deleted?Hi! You deleted a page I created, Giulio Cocchi Spumanti, stating "No explanation of the subject's significance (organization)". I'm a new user and I don't know each Wiki rule, but the reasons for this company page to exist are: - Historical company in the italian wine and spirits business, small but well known - Just awarded in Italy as "Historical Company" - The founder, Giulio Cocchi, in 1891, invented a new category of products, Barolo Chinato - Famous company in the mixology world because of its products (present in 50/50 Best Bars in the World) - In wiki there are hundreds of pages of similar or smaller italian companies in the same business etc I'm not that good at adding references, are articles on newspaper or business magazines good? There is a lot about this company online! Can you please reactivate the page, or send me the script so I can save it in my sandbox and improve it? Thank you very much! =) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Giorgio.bbb (talk • contribs) 15:49, 30 November 2014 (UTC)

Abusing multiple accounts?Hi MOP, I have come across two users/accounts that are clearly used by the same person per the accounts' names and the behavioral evidence of the two accounts. First off, I found it odd that the two most recent differences/edits from the accounts were only ten minutes apart from one another. See: Account #1: [11] From what I can tell so far, I don't think they are legitimately abusing these two accounts, but I thought it might be something worth looking to...

ImpersonationHello, it's me, Darkknight2149. You remember Nolantron (who just became the subject of a sock investigation)? Well, now he is going around and impersonating me and @TJH2018 with a new IP address. You can see the IP's edit history here. Every single edit is either targeting me or TJH2018.

6 months -> 31 hours?Thanks for your recent block here. From what I'm seeing in their contributions page, though, it's for 31 hours after returning from a 6 month block? Am I reading this wrong? - SummerPhDv2.0 06:59, 6 March 2016 (UTC)
Confrontational UsersI recently liked the way you told TJH2018 of the dangers of confronting users. Similarly, can you do the same thing with Darkknight2149? See his confrontational posts against User:Nolantron here ([14]) and here: Darkknight2149 warning, which is only encouraging him to vandalize his pages more and more. Is this the way a user should behave on wikipedia? How Darkknight handled the situation was strictly inappropriate, which only stirred the pot up, resulting in the vandal to instead carry vandalizing on but at a greater intensity. Do get this admin wannabe Darkknight to think about his actions. 206.108.147.66 (talk) 20:43, 8 March 2016 (UTC)

Yoshiman6464 (talk) 00:34, 28 August 2016 (UTC) Extended confirmed protectionHello, Master of Puppets. This message is intended to notify administrators of important changes to the protection policy. "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:
Please review the protection policy carefully before using this new level of protection on pages. Thank you. User page designHi @Master of Puppets:, I was looking through the user page design center and stumbled across your user page. I was wondering if I could use the frame of your user page (one large box at the top and three smaller ones at the bottom) in order to redesign my user page. No worries if you want to keep the layout for yourself, just a question. Thanks, Daylen (talk) 02:20, 27 September 2016 (UTC) ]

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 PatrollersHi Master of Puppets. 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) ]

I think there is currently consensus that it should be deleted, and I've realized that my sources were not sufficient and that some of the later sources were problematic. The debate there has degenerated, and even though I've repeatedly apologized for mistakes in source selection and cross-checking, it seems that it has gotten to a point where the comments have become more personal. I would like to delete the article now since it seems a consensus has been made.

However, the master account, FriendsofCliffHyra (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), was soft-blocked.

Is it possible that you can restore Esoh Omogba since the page was deleted before I had a chance to contest the speedy deletion. The reason that I created his page (even though I knew it has been deleted many times before) was that Omogba has played in a [Wikipedia:WikiProject Football/Fully professional leagues fully pro league] for Yadanarbon F.C. (the Myanmar National League) in 2016 and all the deleted versions were created prior to his stint there (he transferred there in November 2016 while the latest deleted version of his page was created in February 2016). He has also made appearances for the club, scoring a goal against Warriors FC in the Singapore Cup.Das osmnezz (talk) 17:10, 7 November 2017 (UTC)

Well butter my buns and call me a biscuit...
...but this AfD close has got to be the worst edits I've ever seen that I'm not personally responsible for, phhht.
I mean, it wasn't a keep, it was a speedy keep the next day after nomination, with you basically making the point that the matter isn't even worth discussing and won't be discussed, and no reasonable person could hold otherwise. (And "I understand that it has only been a day since I closed the previous nomination" as if the previous nomination was anything but "relist this group individually")
But I mean actually it's a terrible article and egregious memorial. I mean not only is this something that a reasonable person could say, but it's almost certainly true:
- The person's single, only, and solitary claim to notability is that he was mentioned -- not even by name -- in one single sentence by the President, in a list of examples. There's nothing else. That's it.
- And the single, only, and solitary source that he did any of the things ascribed to him is his sister-in-law's avowal. This is not a neutral source and is not fact-checked and can't be. For all we know he actually said "OH FUCK OH FUCK I'M GOING TO DIE OH FUCK AND THIS IDIOT IS CRYING AND BEGGING ME STAY WITH HIM OH GOD" and his sister-in-law just made up a story to make him look good. I mean what she claims is probably true I suppose, but "probably true I suppose" is not usually considered sufficient for a ref.
And it wasn't even a terrific article. It was a poor article that among other things opened with describing his religion even though that has nothing to do with anything else in the article or his notability (if he had any, which he doesn't), "many believe they prayed together during those final moments" with actually no source and zero reason to believe this is true, and so forth. Lol.
This actually made my day... I mean, woot, what the fuck... so even tho you're not really active and probably won't see this, I just wanted to thank you. I'm still laughing. Carry on! Herostratus (talk) 14:43, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
- You're welcome, I guess! It's always fun when Reddit sheds light on seven-year-old AfD closes. And hey, you're always welcome to flesh out or nominate it for deletion - the power is yours. Best, m.o.p 04:05, 11 March 2019 (UTC)
- Nah, it's fine. The article's not hurting anyone, so I've no desire to delete it. Can't worry about these things. It's all good. And yes, since this is The Internet, everything you ever say or do is there to haunt you forever! Could be worse. It could be a photo of you at age 14 goofing around with a blow-up sex doll, and now you're running for congress. So count your blessings! (Uh, unless you are running for congress and there is a photo of you at age 14 goofing around with a blow-up sex doll. In which case, my condolences.) Herostratus (talk) 11:15, 14 March 2019 (UTC)

Special:WantedTemplates
Hi, I have been cleaning up Special:WantedTemplates and noticed that Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:"_+_"oldafdfull"_+_" is pointing to your monobook.js pages. clearly these are false positives (basically a bug in how WP parses .js pages). it would be really great if you could add // <syntaxhighlight lang=javascript>
to the top and // </syntaxhighlight>
to the bottom of those pages. by putting these tags in comments, it won't prevent the javascript from executing, but it will remove those pages from Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:"_+_"oldafdfull"_+_". alternatively, if you are no longer using the monobook skin (many people are using vector these days) and don't need to keep the old page, you could just have the page deleted. thank you in advance for your help.
