RfD

I think we have reached a delete consensus on Wikipedia:Requests for deletion/Requests/2024/Social news#Social news as 5 vd's 2 vsd's plus the nomination of delete, so I think it is safe to close out as a SNOWBALL even though it has 4 days left. Thanks and edit well! - PDLTalk to me!Please don't eat da 🐑! 10:18, 4 April 2024 (UTC)

    @PotsdamLamb: We don't really need this kind of reminder, especially for an RFD that isn't even past its date yet. -- Auntof6 (talk) 20:51, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
      @Auntof6 It can be closed early when it is evident of the results. Nothing has to run a full course of 7 days. I am also allowed to ask to have it closed. It’s not any kind of “reminder.” Thanks and edit well! - PDLTalk to me!Please don't eat da 🐑! 23:53, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
        @PotsdamLamb: It can make it harder for the admins to do their job when people keep pointing out the things they want done right now! There's such a thing as a flow of work, and if that gets interrupted things can get dropped.
        Earlier today you thanked me for closing a bunch of RFDs. The reason I could do that is that 1) I had a chunk of time before I had to be in a meeting and 2) no one interrupted me to ask me to do something else just because they saw that I was online. If I had gotten interrupted, I wouldn't have been able to close as many as I did at the time.
        If something is really urgent, then ask directly if you need to. Otherwise, please use the processes and let them work even if things aren't getting done as soon as you -- or any of us -- would like. Thanks. -- Auntof6 (talk) 10:29, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

Protection indef on my pages

Please adjust all of my pages to be indef semi due to vandalism (including my archives please) Thanks, and be well! - PDLTalk to me!Please don't eat da 🐑! 01:20, 7 April 2024 (UTC)

    administrators' Noticeboard  Done @PotsdamLamb: you don't have to add "AWAITING ADMIN ATTENTION" to requests here. We will get to requests when we get to them. Thanks, --Ferien (talk) 13:00, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
      @Ferien this has been up for 13 days and admins have been on and we have a lot of requests on here. Just like on our VIP board with over 30 requests and by the time someone got to them (you actually) they were all stale. Hard to prevent vandalism when no admin is on and when they get pinged they get upset. Thanks, and be well! - PDLTalk to me!Please don't eat da 🐑! 13:02, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
        This request took about 10 minutes or so to fulfill due to the number of pages that needed to be protected. It is possible another admin may have left it to do later because there was other work that was of a higher priority. Many of the requests on this board aren't urgent, and someone will usually come and review the whole board once in a while to ensure nothing was missed. --Ferien (talk) 13:10, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

Revdel please

Reduce protection

Hello. Can someone please remove the protection from Yandere Simulator so that I can move Yandere simulator to it? It is a video game that exists on ENWP and was created here but with a lowercase "s". Please ping me when done so I can move it.

Hey Duggee: Vip Help Desk

QD A4 was requested here, but IPs are repeating QD tag removal. Please decide what to do with the page. MathXplore (talk) 06:10, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

Mentors

Hi per this conversation with a WMF staffer 250k pages, can an admin turn on the mentor features please? I think it will be a great help to all the newcomers plus it will alert us to all of their changes so we can monitor to ensure articles are being created correctly and not just toss up a little sentence and call it a day.

PS The instructions are included in that conversation. Thanks, and be well! - PDLTalk to me!Please don't eat da 🐑! 18:57, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

Due to his death, we have IP editors removing and adding things. Can we get semi for a month please? Thanks, and be well! - PDLTalk to me!Please don't eat da 🐑! 18:48, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

Import template please

Since the template is fully protected, can an admin import the updated w:Template:Infobox person from enwiki please (including the doc page)? It fixes a few issues that need to be applied here. Thanks, and be well! - PDLTalk to me!Please don't eat da 🐑! 00:40, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

Issues with User:BigKrow

WHO CARES:

Admins don’t care

    The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it.No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The user is creating a lot of short (and I mean short) articles and not creating them correctly. Instead of references they just add an external link. This is one such article out of many. Some I have moved to their userspace (and notified them of such) that I moved them so they can work on the articles and complete them to more than a one - two sentence article. I have also posted on their talk page about the issue. They have also received messages from other users on their talk page. This is not the first time this has happened. We have also had a lot of edit conflicts as they follow me around and when I am working on an article, they edit it right after my first edit and I have asked them to wait about 5 minutes to see if I make any other changes as I am tidying up articles and making sure they are formatted correctly, have the appropriate headings, everything I typically do. I will post a notice on the users talk page about this discussion. I am not quite sure what I can do, but perhaps admins can do something or say something that will work and get the editor back on track. Thanks, and be well! - PDLTalk to me!Please don't eat da 🐑! 04:27, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

Update: Now I need to bring up a few other things that have developed:

  1. User talk:Cyber.Eyes.2005#PotsdamLamb - Editor posted I “need to stop interfering” and was told to post on my talk page.
  2. Talk:1999 Sydney hailstorm#PotsdamLamb telling me I "stop adding things to my drafts vybereyes helping me not you..." - Showing ownership and I’ve never touched the article which is in the main space. It was an article I moved to their user space due to the issues they are having with the creation of the articles (of which I moved the original to their user space so they could work on it) but they made a new article instead of moving it. Plus the article is just very basic (as I listed above 1999 Sydney hailstorm. They have received numerous warnings and conversations about the issues since they joined. I’m beginning to feel that they don’t quite yet understand how to create articles and the layout making them perhaps incompatible with our project. Thanks, and be well! - PDLTalk to me!Please don't eat da 🐑! 19:14, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

User:Futurolog21 canvassing

This user created an article that was put up for RfD and was successful. During the RfD, I noticed a couple of things that were off. Upon investigation, I found this user was canvassing to get people from their home wiki to come onto SEWP and vote to keep an article that had no notability. I know canvassing is not tolerated on ENWP. The RfD are is now closed as deleted. I would expect the article to be recreated based on how passionate this editor was about keeping it and even quoting relative parts of policy (but not quoting ones against what they were doing. The RfD is at Wikipedia:Requests_for_deletion/Requests/2024/Lady_Slim for an admin to look and see the log I posted..

Module deletion needed please

Hello - Can someone delete Module:Flex columns. It is no longer used and nothing links to it.

Reason: It is for an ENWP template only that is not used on SEWP. Thanks, and be well! - PDLTalk to me!Please don't eat da 🐑! 02:31, 14 April 2024 (UTC)

2 IPs keep hitting filters

These 2 IPs has been systematically hitting blanking filers for a few months, and the 192.8.-IP in particular has more than 700 log entries without having a single edit. Should we block/warn them? - XXBlackburnXx (talk) 07:46, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

Wiki: Biographies_of_living_persons

I just noticed this. It is linked when an article is in the category of living people. It is showing pretty much incomplete and in process of being updated [3]. Due to the importance of this, I feel it should be completed as soon as possible so we have it simplified for our readers. The last substantial edit was in 2021. Thanks, and be well! - PDLTalk to me!Please don't eat da 🐑! 22:24, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

Template refresh needed

AWAITING ADMIN ATTENTION

Can an admin pull in the newest version to refresh our version of Template:Infobox movie please? Also, let me know when it is done as I need to fix an article. Thanks, and be well! - PDLTalk to me!Please don't eat da 🐑! 00:00, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

Issues with DIVINE

WHO CARES:

Admins don’t care

    The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it.No further edits should be made to this discussion.

Besides a big edit notice that says they are not allowed to post on my talk page, they ignored it and decided to do so anyway. It clearly states: "NOTICE: BigKrow and Divine are prohibited from posting anything on my talk page. Any violations will be reported to WP:AN." in bold letters clear across any typing area of my page. I am holding to it. Admins, please enforce this. This is due to their inability to once again follow instructions on SEWP and requests from an editor who they have had unhealthy conversations with and I distancing myself from both of these editors based on their aspirations and slander towards me. See my edit notice here. It was last updated on April 14, 2024, but both added on April 13, 2024 and while typing this out, the editor added yet another post to my talk page. Diff one then they edited it so here isdiff two. Amazing how the changed the words around to better suit them going from You are not supposed to blame another editor who wasn't even informed by them to You are not supposed to blame another editor with wrong information. Thanks, and be well! - PDLTalk to me!Please don't eat da 🐑! 04:41, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

    @PotsdamLamb accused me with a false comment of calling another admin an ass on enwiki while my request was about rollback, and they clearly mentioned many things there which i have already addressed with. Just a few days back, they called Lee Velnski " you might be an admin on enwiki and warned not to act as an admin here" while lee was doing their own work. This user is clearly not having a healthy conversation with another editor and always involves in conflict with bad faith editing and WP:Biting another editor. While I was trying to communicate regarding their concern on their talk page, they bring me here, which is not that concerning, as I can see it's not the first time they are doing this. But I just want to ignore this, and their comment on the rollback request was blaming, hatred, false accusations with falsifying evidence. DIVINE 04:56, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
      @DIVINE

      The evidence is provided in the links. Let me address what you wrote on your debate (again and using the same information I supplied before since you are accusing me (wrongfully) of not providing evidence):
      • This user has been absent from this wiki for two years. Upon coming back to SEWP, the editor immediately took me to WP:RFCU (See Wiki: Requests_for_checkuser#PotsdamLamb) for absolutely no reason or even researching anything. - Is this not true for some reason? I would like to see the evidence where this did not happen days after you returned without YOU or I even communicating?
      • Slew of issues on ENWP, involving legal threats (for which they were blocked on April 6, 2024 ENWP block log)
        • 05:17, April 6, 2024 Ivanvector talk contribs changed block settings for DIVINE talk contribs with an expiration time of indefinite (account creation blocked) (legal threats and disruptive editing. Restoring talk access to address block appeal.)
        • 11:01, April 3, 2024 Ivanvector talk contribs changed block settings for DIVINE talk contribs with an expiration time of indefinite (account creation blocked, email disabled, cannot edit own talk page) (Not compromised, but now blocked for legal threats, and disruptive editing in general. Talk page acces revoked for threatening to post personal information about other users.) Tag: Twinkle
        • 10:55, April 3, 2024 Rosguill talk contribs blocked DIVINE talk contribs with an expiration time of indefinite (account creation blocked) (Either a compromised account, or a longterm self-promoter with possible sockpuppetry and possibly UPE thrown in as well, per Special:Diff/1217072039 and the revision histories of Prakash Neupane. Either way, indef block is appropriate.) Tag: Twinkle (Note: I missed this on my intial review.)
          • Yet you are denying this by your response of "Thirdly, legal threats issues arose from doxing and have already been resolved. I am following WP:STANDARD offer and haven't violated WP:SOCK policy." So if resolved, why are you still blocked? If you took the standard offer, why are you still blocked?
      • "In addition to the CU request placement, you could have pointed it out to me on my talk page or fixed it instead of complaining." - I was not complaining, I told you it had already been way resolved and my original unblock was declined LAST year due to it and others have brought me up for it and they ended up being globally locked for evading their block. Then on top of this, another editor started making aspirations about me, who has had a lot of issues on this Wiki and after I and others have tried to help them for a very long time, they decide to continue to do what they were asked not to do and to continue to go against policy. So that was the 2nd rollback, but yet you turn around then and state "Secondly, your CU request was valid, and anyone can request CU. You were about to commit 3RR violations while removing that notice from the CU page." - One you cannot assume what I was about to do. I was actually having an IRC conversation with admins about it to get it addressed quickly before it got out of hand.
      • You state "Fighting against vandalism or patrolling new pages always involves automated edits while putting warning templates on users' talk pages with the help of Twinkle." and "Lastly, about contributing, I have created more than 61 pages and 14 pages recently without copying anything, but writing by myself. My motto is to create at least one page per day here on SWEP while being free."
        • Since you have been back, you have created 14 pages of which a few are stubs. Plus two more which were deleted as non-notable. I personally asked for QD on one of them. I am not sure where you get 61 pages from unless you are counting user pages when you placed original templates on it. I see 52 talk pages created and 6 categories. So let's not inflate your numbers to try to look good.
      • You state Also, I don't understand why you bring enwiki issues here, while this is a completely different WikiProject, and I haven't done anything wrong here while volunteering with a positive attitude and positive manners - Not all of your interactions have been positive, and due to the amount of posts you make, I can not search through every single one of. I can think of a few of hand where you were not, which also includes the comments you made when you requested my CU. Any issues you have on one wiki affects all wikis. You, seeming to know all about how things operate, should know this. That is why there is the one-strike rule.
      • To address your comment about you didn't call an admin an "ass" I will just post that link here too for others to evaluate (along with your demanding nature, which is taken into account by the admin saying they are getting tired of it) w:/User_talk:Primefac/Archive_40#Hi.
      Now, to address what you just stated above about me:
      1. Lee and I have since worked it out as adults and explained his reasoning, which is valid and I have no problem with that. 99% of the time, we get along just fine. Disputes are bound to happen, it is how we deal with it that matters.
      2. Yes, some editors and I will not get along. The funny part is, they end up going to CU for some reason and they are found out to be sock puppets. There are actually two other users I did not get along with at one time, they are now resolved and we work great together. It is called talking things out and not everything will be on wiki. As we have IRC, discord and email.

      That is all I have to say. The proof is in the pudding as evidence (once again) is shown (since obviously at [[4]] I did not provide evidence, then there you go. I am now disengaging any further contact with you. Thanks, and be well! - PDLTalk to me!Please don't eat da 🐑! 05:35, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

Nothing

Please protect. Lots of continuous vandalism of being blanked. Thanks, and be well! - PDLTalk to me!Please don't eat da 🐑! 14:29, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

Page protection

Please protect the following pages as an editor keeps removing the redirects (one was already protected) and now they are doing the others which all go under one company.

Please redirect the pages as stated (also follows ENWP as these small subsidiaries all fall under Entertainment One) and protect the redirect pages from being edited. I have attempted on multiple occasions to talk to the editor on their talk page but they have never once responded and instead just keep removing the redirects without any valid reason on the edit summary or conversation. Thanks, and be well! - PDLTalk to me!Please don't eat da 🐑! 03:37, 21 April 2024 (UTC)

Admin only protection

On both my main and talk please. I’m leaving and I don’t need grave dancers or any thing else being said. Best of luck. Thanks, and be well! - PDLTalk to me!Please don't eat da 🐑! 13:34, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
