For the love of all that is holy

We need a 'crat to take a simple action over at English Wikinews........can you help, please?? We only have one 'crat, and she has been largely unreachable.--Bddpaux (talk) 00:04, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

@Bddpaux: Hello. I'm not a 'crat at the English Wikinews so I can't help. Sorry. And it seems that the only crat on Wikinews was last active 2 days ago. --Minorax«¦talk¦» 00:21, 26 July 2021 (UTC)
Well, at least you replied. I actually missed a couple of her recent edits. I will see if I can get her to take some sort of action. Maybe I'm jumping the gun a wee bit.--Bddpaux (talk) 02:29, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

Admin request at rw.wp

Hi! I've left an admin request over at rw:Ibiganiro:Intangiriro. If you could take a look, that'd be excellent. Thank you! T.Shafee(Evo﹠Evo)talk 06:46, 13 August 2021 (UTC)

VRT template

Hi Minorax,

Would it be possible to turn on translations for Template:VRT? Especially the notice about OTRS now been renamed is quite essential at the moment I think. Ciell (talk) 20:12, 28 August 2021 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) @Ciell The page is already marked for translation; not sure what you mean. ~~~~

A Community Wishlist Survey update waiting for translation

 

Hello! Would you be able to translate the newest update about the Community Wishlist Survey 2022? In short: instead of November 2021, the CWS will happen in January 2022. We would also like to make other improvements. We can't do that without having the volunteers' opinions. This is what we ask for in the message.

After the weekend, I'll send this to all Village Pumps, Cafes, Forums, etc. Our team would like as many people as possible not to ignore this message. Let's remove the language barrier.

Thank you! SGrabarczuk (WMF) 01:29, 4 September 2021 (UTC)

User page protection?

Hi Minorax, thanks for blocking User:Iggy the Swan 2021 on meta. I already requested a global lock for this long time vandal [1].

Do you think it's possible to semi-protect my talk page (and those of other affected users)? Almost every edit on my talk page was made by socketpuppets of Mike Matthews [2] and I don't think newly registered users need to reach out for me on meta (I am almost exclusively active on deWP, except when I'm dealing with this crosswiki vandal).

Other talk pages affected: [3][4][5]. These pages were affected as well until you protected them: [6][7][8]. Thanks! -- Johannnes89 (talk) 11:19, 29 September 2021 (UTC)

Request for a guide.

Please I saw your name on the list of Nigerian Wikipedians page. I'm new to the system but it seemed like I don't have permission to add myself to the list. Please can I add myself or someone to add me? Elvmeen (talk) 22:35, 10 October 2021 (UTC)

@Elvmeen: Which page? You can add yourself at Wikimedia User Group Nigeria/Members. --Minorax«¦talk¦» 01:22, 11 October 2021 (UTC)

@1234qwer1234qwer4: Didn't test the page out after creating it. Thanks for the note. --Minorax«¦talk¦» 13:17, 11 October 2021 (UTC)

Thank you

Appreciate your moving that page to my userspace. Obviously, I wasn't paying close enough attention when I created it, sorry for messing up the mainspace. Risker (talk) 17:15, 12 October 2021 (UTC)

Saluton denove!

Due to some personal problems of one of the administrators, I would be banned from the project site, where I asked you a question. Obviously, this was done to interfere with communication. First, thanks for your reply. Secondly, please tell me a convenient source to quickly find information what other tags besides "font" are outdated?

PS: My question was at - https://eo.wiktionary.org/wiki/Uzanta_diskuto:Minorax - and I cannot answer there accordingly for reasons beyond my control. Vami (talk) 17:09, 15 October 2021 (UTC)

@Vami: Hello. The help page is on mediawiki. --Minorax«¦talk¦» 02:43, 16 October 2021 (UTC)
Hello ... I indeed blocked user "Vami" for 24 hours, after having been bombed with insults about "nazi", "idiocy", "stupidity", "you have to attend a school" and many more. :-( Taylor 49 (talk) 10:37, 16 October 2021 (UTC)

User talk page protection

Hi Minorax, the LTA is active again (see my lasst request User talk:Minorax/Archive 5#User page protection?) and vandalized a talk page you already protected for three months. I would suggest infinite semi-protection for User talk:Iggy the Swan. Also it might be a good idea to semi-protect User talk:Iggy the Lion and User talk:Iggy the Tortoise, both get harassed because of the similar name to User:Iggy the Swan. @Tegel: fyi. Thanks and best wishes -- Johannnes89 (talk) 11:45, 20 October 2021 (UTC)

@Johannnes89: Protected Iggy the Swan talk page indefinitely, the other 2 are inactive users so I don't see a need to protect it. --Minorax«¦talk¦» 11:49, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
They are very likely to be vandalized again (which just happened via IP [9]) and think I already saw crosswiki vandalism on these user's talk pages but I cannot find diffs right now. I will ask for protection again, if there is further vandalism :) -- Johannnes89 (talk) 11:58, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
@Johannnes89:   Done --Minorax«¦talk¦» 12:14, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
Hi, thanks for protecting Minorax. No useful user has ever contacted me on Meta for any queries as I don't edit here very often except for requesting glocks of anyone problematic as done so in the past. Iggy the Swan (talk) 15:17, 20 October 2021 (UTC)

Question about a change

Thank you for fixing where another user posted incorrectly related to our annual report. As I am continually trying to learn best practices for editing and fixing editing issues, I wanted to ask you about your fixing this incorrect post. Can you help me understand how you even noticed this was done incorrectly and then how you moved it to where it should be? I am asking as I would never have seen this otherwise and am seeking to understand more about this sort of monitoring and fixing. Thank you. --- FULBERT (talk) 15:39, 30 October 2021 (UTC)

@FULBERT: Hello. Sorry for the late reply. I just happened to open the recent changes and saw that @DAlangi (WMF): added it to a redirect page. I've tweaked the colours of the link through my css page and it appears green instead of the normal blue link (see below). The possible source of this error might be due to the link to the user group's mainpage shown at Wikimedia_Affiliates_Data_Portal/Reports --Minorax«¦talk¦» 12:36, 31 October 2021 (UTC)

About reviewing the block

Hi, I have blocked by Sotiale on Wikimedia incubator, giving the reason that I used the account Tech007007 and Timothychintim, which I didn't. Can you help reviewing the block for me? Thanks. --Bosco1122 (talk) 16:29, 22 December 2021

@Sotiale: FYI. --Minorax«¦talk¦» 09:10, 23 December 2021 (UTC)
Contrary to what Bosco1122 thinks, the reason I blocked the user can be found in the content of the user's talkpage. --Sotiale (talk) 12:51, 23 December 2021 (UTC)
@Sotiale: You mean you blocked me because I used multiple accounts previously instead of using the above two accounts? --Bosco1122 (talk) 16:24, 23 December 2021 (UTC)
" ... It is not taken into account in blocking, but I wonder if you really claim to have nothing to do with ... ". See my talkpage. --Sotiale (talk) 21:34, 23 December 2021 (UTC)
@Sotiale: From my understanding, that means you think I used the above two accounts so you blocked me, that's why I'm contacting Minorax to review the block. --Bosco1122 (talk) 04:27, 24 December 2021 (UTC)
I'm not interested in reviewing the block. The reason you provided on your talk page shows that you clearly know what you are doing and know that socking is not allowed anywhere. Having multiple accounts editing the same wiki in hope to push for its approval is an example of votestacking. --Minorax«¦talk¦» 04:42, 24 December 2021 (UTC)
@Minorax: I know it is not a good behavior, but I realize it is completely prohibited only after Sotiale asked me in the talkpage, and since then I didn't use other accounts anymore. At that time my account was still not be blocked, only after Sotiale blocked Tech007007 and Timothychintim then he or she blocked mine, so the block must based on the fact that Sotiale thought that I used these two accounts. If I was blocked because I used multiple accounts previously, why don't Sotiale blocked me immediately? Also, if that is the case, what are the reasons of blocking Tech007007 and Timothychintim? As Sotiale thought that I am related to these accounts so he or she blocked them, but the fact is not. Thus these accounts should be reviewed as they are not abusing any accounts. --Bosco1122 (talk) 09:42, 24 December 2021 (UTC)
