Mass delete DE policy/Veranstaltungsreihen/en

Since I forgot to fix the page language before marking it for translation, and because of a bug, all translation units in English (title and from 1 up to 22) are wrong (German copy). Can you mass delete them, please? -- Pols12 (talk) 18:14, 2 April 2023 (UTC)

Hi admins, I'm requesting semiprotection (or whatever you see fit) for Movement Charter, Movement Charter/Community Consultation and Movement Charter/Ratification until the end of this month, anticipating high traffic and vulnerability to vandals and page-blankers.

Please remove rights from locked Thibbs (talk · contribs)

Deceased wikimedian :( AlPaD (talk) 14:40, 17 April 2023 (UTC)

This is unnecessary. The account is locked so having or not having the rights makes no difference. These are not advanced permissions.--BRP ^ever 14:48, 17 April 2023 (UTC)

@BRPever: Hello! Yes, I know, but administrators shouldn't remove all permissions from globally locked accounts? AlPaD (talk) 15:02, 17 April 2023 (UTC)

@AlPaD Autopatrol doesn't do much here (except some filter bypass) and there is no harm in leaving it there for a recently deceased users. Removing the right do nothing but might be a little disrespectful to the passed on user. We do remove higher access rights such as sysop from deceased users but for those lesser sensitive ones like autopatrol there isn't really much harm in leaving. This is the least we can do to respect the valuable wikimedian who had just left us. Exceptions do occur if the user specifically asked for in their "will". This is different from locked users who are locked based on disruptions. Hope you understand. Having said that, since this thread existed and there's this dialogue, I will go ahead to remove the access as leaving it there with this RFH thread pending is even more disrespectful IMHO. Done.

Bot inactivity review (April 2023)

Per Meta:Bots § Removal bullet point 3, bot accounts that have made no edits or log actions for 14 continuous months will have their bot flags removed by a bureaucrat. Operators will be warned seven days in advance before removal can take place. If the operator replies and states that they will intend to be active again with the bot, removal won't take place.

The following bots are currently inactive per policy:

• AswnBot: last edit: 2019-12-03T00:04:06Z, last log: never (operator: Aswn)
• Botik: last edit: 2022-01-14T09:46:55Z, last log: 2015-03-23T21:13:29Z (operator: Александр Сигачёв)
• Cyberbot I: last edit: 2021-09-18T00:42:07Z, last log: 2016-07-11T06:10:02Z (operator: Cyberpower678)
• Removed, user request: RomaineBot: last edit: never, last log: 2011-09-10T15:31:16Z (operator:Romaine)
• Kept, operator answered: WikiCleanerBot: last edit: 2022-01-09T12:16:08Z, last log: 2022-01-09T11:47:23Z (operator: NicoV)

I'll be messaging the operators on their talk pages shortly, and ask them to respond on this page if they wish their bots to remain flagged.

Operators messaged on their Meta-Wiki talk pages. Responses due 00:00 April 20, 2023 (UTC). —MarcoAurelio (talk) 11:59, 12 April 2023 (UTC)
