I understand why you did it (the vitriol) but I think there was a more likely reason it was happening than what you concluded? My thoughts are this. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 21:50, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, there is an article on Wiki that is full of hate and false statements that are not based on any evidence. Facts are mixed with false and such statements lead to ethnic hatred. It is a locked page that can't edited. Could you please remove it? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israeli_war_crimes 2601:18C:502:1740:0:0:0:21C0 (talk) 00:23, 7 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Notice

The article United States presidential elections in West Virginia has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Duplicate information which is already listed on the main article for the State of West Virginia

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Qutlooker (talk) 20:34, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

De-PRODDED. This is part of a series, and contains more information than the referenced state article. BD2412 T 22:26, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Interesting question

Why did someone change Mustafa's birth date from 1592 to 1600? Please answer me. IgnacyPL (talk) 08:31, 19 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@IgnacyPL: I presume you mean Mustafa I? BD2412 T 18:05, 19 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes IgnacyPL (talk) 18:06, 19 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@IgnacyPL: This is not a subject of which I have expertise sufficient to address the question, but I have initiated a discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Turkey#Date of birth of Mustafa I, noting that at least one source in the article asserts a "c. 1591" date. Please continue the discussion there. BD2412 T 18:16, 19 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm going to begin the cleanup from closing the RM. I'm going to see how many I can get through. Because of your note, I'm going to leave this here, but I am going to leave a simplified version of {{old move}} on all the pages because of the sheer number of them:

{{Old move |date=15 August 2024 |result=move |link=Special:Permalink/1240809853#Requested move 15 August 2024}}

Kindly, Bobby Cohn (talk) 20:58, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Bobby Cohn: I think there's a way to get through large chunks of them at once, by constructing a move template with that instruction. BD2412 T 21:00, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Is it possible to create a substituting template that incorporates all of the correct parameters, without using a shorthand one that I've left above? Bobby Cohn (talk) 21:06, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
When you close an RM, it is possible to just have Wikipedia do all the work. Let me try something. BD2412 T 21:14, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ahh, sorry! Okay, I've stopped. I got through the list of those on the RM before seeing your comment here. My plan was to tackle the ones in the RM first before moving on to the ones listed in the associated category, so as to not populate the "malformed move requests" category at WP:RM. Bobby Cohn (talk) 21:18, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I see you're working away. I might leave it to you for now so as to not introduce any edit conflicts, I'll check back in a little bit. Cheers, Bobby Cohn (talk) 21:23, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Bobby Cohn: Well, I created a fake RM for the unlisted proposed moves, and then closed it, but the dialogue asking whether I wanted to move the pages right away did not appear, and I am wondering whether that is a parameter issue, or the system itself can detect that it is a fake request (either because just filed rather than waiting a week, or no !votes). I can just AWB it, in a few hours. BD2412 T 21:30, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Bobby Cohn: Should be all done now. Cheers! BD2412 T 02:57, 23 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you!

[edit]
The Brilliant Idea Barnstar
I love a clever solution to a large problem, and that’s exactly what you found after a a move request would have resulted in over 300 manual page moves. Well done, and thanks for tackling the large list for me! Bobby Cohn (talk) 01:52, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I appreciate the plaudit, but my brilliant idea didn't work, and I ended up brute-forcing it with AWB. Still faster than doing it manually, though. BD2412 T 12:30, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Can you help?

[edit]

I had started a complaint at the ANI about a user accusing me of socking who was refusing to open a WP:SPI investigation against me. Some other editor went and merged my complaint with another complaint because the accusations were happening in the other complaint, and then encouraged another editor to put their own complaint inside of my complaint. Now nobody is even addressing the content of my original complaint?? Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#Proposing_block_on_User:Symphony_Regalia. I cannot start a WP:SPI investigation on myself, can you? Can anyone? I really don't know what to do, there doesn't seem to be an avenue for clearing my name when the user refuses to use WP:SPI, I cannot start an investigation on myself, and everyone is focused on the other unrelated complaints that a user instructed another user to drop inside my complaint. Nevermind, someone explained things to me. Brocade River Poems (She/They) 03:12, 13 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@CNMall41: I don't see a G5 deletion in the logs. This was an expired prod (although it may have been PROD for G5 reasons). I will move it to draft for AFC review, as a reasonable precaution. BD2412 T 22:46, 14 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe I did not look closely but it was created by this sock farm who now uses IP addresses in an attempt to game the system. Maybe it was an expired prod. If you look at the Wonderland draft mentioned above, you can see the IP removed the six or so previous declines which I have now restored.
