hello I'm curious as to a page I read said you were last to edit. But I found a bottle of cologne from my late grandpa. And while doing research I've come across this Paul andre or andre Paul.
Which the bottle is signed by. It also has the name Corre on it which I also saw in the article. Plus the name" Michel" coincidence? Idk. But I'm curious as to where this came from. And I literally can't find anything about it. Can you help? Did this person perhaps maybe develop a cologne or what have you back then?
How could a local chapter assist the copyright donation process?
[edit]Hi mailer diablo,
My name is Liang, and I am a board member from Wikimedia Taiwan. We are encountering an issue with OTRS now. Here's the story-- There is a family in our city who get in touch with our chapter, they meet us in person and express that their passed away father left a Taiwanese-Mandarin Dictionary. Their father authorize the dictionary to be printed in paper by a local publisher in 2000 here, and now the copyright is back to the family. Few weeks ago the family contacted Reke, our secretariat of the chapter, to express they want their father's work to be released on Wikimedia projects. They wish to make the work as accessible as possible.
This is a really exciting news for us in the chapter. There are programmer who is working on the modification of the printing files to Wiki source, and there are also some culture events ideas are brainstormed for demonstrating the way to use the dictionary. However, we are not quite sure how to handle this properly with the OTRS process.
Since the members in the family are all elders, it's highly difficult for them to use email to conduct the OTRS process. In the consent email template on Wikicommons, we found the following description: "If you are releasing a work that is not available online, you may be required to provide proof of your identity. If you are releasing a work where you are acting on the copyright holder's behalf, you may be required to provide proof of authorization to work on the copyright holder's behalf." Looks like we can provide some documents to the OTRS team without their direct email, is it correct? If so, then could you give us some previous cases or the paper consent template to show us what kind of "useful proofs" we should provide to the OTRS team.
Thank you for your patience and we are looking for your feedback.
Best,

Atomic Nucleus
[edit]In the second paragraph of this article, it states; the ratio of the nucleus of a hydrogen atom to it's overall size is 145,000:1. This does not compute; the nuclear diameter is 1.75x 10(to-15)M and the overall diameter is 40x 10(to-12)M this calculates to be 22,800:1 which is within 2.5% of the 23,300:1 ratio for U238!!!!!!!! This is a major error and very misleading. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.111.152.46 (talk) 10:56, 28 May 2015 (UTC)

[edit]You closed Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Church Street as delete.
Could you please restore the revision history?
Almost ten years or so ago a small handful of contributors made a flood of nominations, and another flood of unilateral merges and redirections of articles on Toronto streets and roadways. Reviewing those AFD I see quite a few questionable arguments. I see the nominators claiming the deletions were based on policy, but most of their claims seemed specious, based on hand-waving, not based on policy at all.
In this AFD two of the respondents said "Delete this article on a Church Street, because, so far as I am concerned, the only notable Church Street is my local Church Street." If I were an administrator, and I had closed this AFD, I would have put on my hat as an educator, and explicitly stated I had discounted these opinions where were classic examples of the kinds of bad arguments warned about in WP:Arguments to Avoid.
It is almost ten years later, and almost all the deleted articles are now redirects, or have been turned back into meaningful articles. I've turned a dozen or so of them back into meaningful articles myself, and would have found this a lot easier if I had the original revision history to start from.
If those deletions were done today there is a good chance the deleting administrator would have left the revision history visible, for just this reason. Almost all the roads deleted in this flood of AFD measure up to our notability criteria. Almost all the deletions were made because the 2006 versions were badly written, lacked references, and lacked other information that established their notability. Nevertheless, articles on topics that are notable, should be deleted cautiously, when the sole problem lies with the current article being poorly written or otherwise falling short of our standards.
Restoration of the revision history assists anyone who wants to write an article that does measure up to the standards of 2015.
So, could you please restore the revision history?
Thanks Geo Swan (talk) 20:42, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
- WRT my request for restoration of the revision history of Church Street (Toronto) -- could you please be explicit here? Did you simply overlook this request? Or did you wish me to interpret your missing reply as your way of telling me to make my request at DRV?
- Personally, if you think you had a good reason why you shouldn't agree to restore the history, I would prefer you share it with me now. If I am convinced we will be saving the time and energy of all those fine people who would have ended up reading my request, if you hadn't talked me out of it.

This is a message from the Wikimedia Foundation. Translations are available.
As you may know, the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees approved a new "Access to nonpublic information policy" on 25 April 2014 after a community consultation. The former policy has remained in place until the new policy could be implemented. That implementation work is now being done, and we are beginning the transition to the new policy.
An important part of that transition is helping volunteers like you sign the required confidentiality agreement. All Wikimedia volunteers with access to nonpublic information are required to sign this new agreement, and we have prepared some documentation to help you do so.
The Wikimedia Foundation is requiring that anyone with access to nonpublic information sign the new confidentiality agreement by 15 December 2015 (OTRS users have until 22 December 2015) to retain their access. You are receiving this email because you have access to nonpublic information and are required to sign the confidentiality agreement under the new policy.
Signing the confidentiality agreement for nonpublic information is conducted and tracked using Legalpad on Phabricator. The general confidentiality agreement is now ready, and the OTRS agreement will be ready after 22 September 2015. We have prepared a guide on Meta-Wiki to help you create your Phabricator account and sign the new agreement: Confidentiality agreement for nonpublic information/How to sign
If you have any questions or experience any problems while signing the new agreement, please visit this talk page or email me (gvarnumwikimedia.org). Again, please sign this confidentiality agreement by 15 December 2015 (OTRS users have until 22 December 2015) to retain your access to nonpublic information. If you do not wish to retain this access, please let me know and we will forward your request to the appropriate individuals.
Thank you,

Recent Edits to "The Battle of Nordlingen 1634"

I have over the past few days made numerous edits to Wiki's "The Battle of Nordlingen 1634".
New information was added from Cecily V. Wedgwood's "The Thity Years War". A number of tweaks were made, mostly to improve usage.
I should mention my footnotes appear in the main body. What remains to be done is to integrate these in the proper order to the existing footnote section and then add the source to the bibliography as well.

You are Singapore people,right?Perhaps you can speak a little Taiwanese.It is quite strange for China or Taiwan people to read Roma alphabet.

Canadian Maple Leaf Coins
[edit]Article is found at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_Silver_Maple_Leaf
This statement is no longer true, and contradicts information in the article itself:
"In 2005, the Liberation of the Netherlands triple privy silver Maple Leaf—the rarest of all Silver Maple Leaf coins—was struck by the Royal Canadian Mint for the Royal Dutch Mint."
It is wrong, because in 2014 the Year of the Horse with Hieroglyphic Double Privy had a mintage of 1,000, while the 2005 issue referred to above had a mintage of 3,500.
Thank you!

The fact was ... that competition for the contract to build Singapore's first MRT trains (pictured) was so fierce that it involved last-minute discounts, offers of free parts, and allegations of sabotage? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Kawasaki Heavy Industries C151. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Kawasaki Heavy Industries C151), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Could you please give me some advice?
[edit]Hi, the administrator User: Ruud Koot made heavy edits to several articles regarding the Swarm Intelligence topic, removing a lot of scholarly material from many articles, and replacing it with negative remarks, often misrepresenting the content of his citations. There is no way to reinstate removed material as he promptly undoes any changes, he has semi-protected Swarm Intelligence to further hinder changes, he has investigated for socketpuppetry everybody who has contested his changes, and blocked indefinitely without any prior warning an inexperienced user (User talk:Aheedar) for procedural reasons (multiple tagging) and alleged personal attacks.
I have contested to no avail the scientific accuracy and neutral point of view of his changes in Talk:List of metaphor-based metaheuristics, Talk:Swarm intelligence, Talk:Bees algorithm.
I reported him to Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents for his behaviour. His defence was mud-slinging, presenting myself and other colleagues who objected to his changes as single-purpose citation spammers with a conflict of interest. My conflict of interest, if any, is that I am trying to disseminate some of the knowledge I gained in 20 years of research. I did cite in good faith some of my works (6 out of 31 citations in Bees algorithm, 1 out of 2 citations added to Swarm Intelligence), and stated I don’t mind if they are removed.
As I have tried to explain in Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents, my concern is about him, admittedly not an expert, hijacking and slanting the presentation of a whole research field, and bullying whoever opposes his personal views. Somehow I feel most of his colleagues (with one notable exception) quickly dismissed my objections as those of a spammer.
As an OTRS volunteer, I would be grateful if you could give me an independent opinion/advice on the issue, and any suggestion on what to do.
Thanks Marco castellani 1965 (talk) 02:10, 30 August 2016 (UTC)
Another senior admin had a look at the issue, I believe some of the main problems were addressed. Thanks Marco castellani 1965 (talk) 10:46, 31 August 2016 (UTC)
Extended confirmed protection
[edit]Hello, Mailer diablo. 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. 17:48, 23 September 2016 (UTC)

[edit]Two-Factor Authentication now available for admins
[edit]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
[edit]Hi Mailer diablo.
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)

Post-Factual News?
[edit]Hello,
I don't know who to complain to. Upon going to Wikipedia today, I was greeted by a fund-raising diatribe against "post-factual" news. Is Wikipedia joining the attack on independent and largely more truthful media sites like Breitbart and InfoWars? Have you joined the propaganda media including the NYT, Washington Post, CNN, and the other main-stream media? If so, you are very much risking the development of an alternative to Wikipedia and being consigned to a slow drift into irrelevance. with these MSM organizations. I suggest you back off and remain neutral in this matter.

Black Leather Jesus
[edit]Hi Mailer diablo. You deleted Black Leather Jesus per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Black Leather Jesus way back in November 2007. The article was recreated in August 2015, apparently by someone associated with the group. It was almost immediately tagged for speedy per WP:A7, but that was removed by another editor. Not sure if this version is the same, better, or worse than the one you deleted, but it is not supported by any citations to reliable sources and looks, at least at first glance, like a candidate for WP:G4. Any suggestions on what to do here? Thanks in advance. -- Marchjuly (talk) 06:05, 14 December 2016 (UTC)
Nikoroman (talk · contribs), now marked as a sock of PhoenixS15, has been a prolific editor and creator of articles on firearms. As such, I've noticed his edits and all that I've looked at casually have appeared correct. Since the master account is known for vandalism, should I check those edits more carefully for obscure vandalism, hoaxes, or other non-obvious problems? I don't want to spend the time unnecessarily, but if it's a concern it might be easier to do while the contributions are fresh.Felsic2 (talk) 16:52, 21 December 2016 (UTC)
Deleted Page for BlankTV
[edit]Hi Diablo!
I'm Smitty from BlankTV. We're the Net's biggest indie music video channel, with over 18,000 music videos, 700,000 subscribers and over one billion videos shown. Sometime in 2006 it appears you deleted our page about BlankTV. Why? All the MTV, AllMusic, Vevo, all their pages are fine. We're a free independent alternative to those corporate-owned channels. We'd like to get that page re-instated, so we can update it with news about the channel and forthcoming movie. If you can please drop me a line at [email protected], I'llbe happy to provide any proof of our wonderful and continuing existence. Thanks, Smitty

Undeletion request.
[edit]Hey Mailer diablo,
I'm requesting the undeletion of the article Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Joel_Allwright. The footballer in question has since been signed by and played for a club in Australia's premier football competition, the A-League. Because of this, I feel the larger body of information available for him would assist to make a decent quality article, provided I could access the pre-existing deleted article, to scavenge it for information? If you could assist, that would be awesome!

Can you remove the protection on x86-64?
[edit]Like it on the title... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 221.9.23.59 (talk) 13:32, 16 May 2017 (UTC)
- Please no. This IP is very likely a sockpuppet of Janagewen (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), who received an indef block over two years ago for edit-warring, sockpuppetry, NOTHERE, etc. Since then he has piled up an impressive list of over 70 SP reports, nearly all confirmed. I've reported this one here and noted that it's in the same /19 IP4 group as many of Jan's other confirmed IP socks (see the archive, do a text search for 221.9) and geolocates to the same town in China. Other recent edits to x86-64 are from 119.53.96.1, Jan's other /19 IP group.
- Contrariwise, maybe you could SP talk:x86-64 as well - then at least we'd have some relief from the disruption and silliness while the SP folks clear their backlog, which is unfortunately extensive. Jeh (talk) 16:01, 16 May 2017 (UTC)

Interaction Timeline V1.1
[edit]Hello Mailer_diablo, I’m following up with you because you previously showed an interest in the Interaction Timeline. The Anti-Harassment Tools team has completed V1.1 and the tool is ready for use. The Interaction Timeline shows a chronologic history for two users on pages where they have both made edits.
The purpose of the tool is to better understand the sequence of edits between two users in order to make a decision about the best way to resolve a user conduct dispute. Here are some test cases that show the results and also some known limitations of the tool. We would like to hear your experience using the tool in real cases. You can leave public feedback on talk page or contact us by email if the case needs discretion or you would prefer to comment privately.
