Hi, WP Admin community!! Since I've reach the extended-confirmed rights threshold here on WP, I want to see it reflected on/in my user page like those of other Wikipedians! Can you show me how to do it or can you do it for me, please?! Intrisit ( talk) 16:58, 14 December 2022 (UTC)

Hello, friend! Thank you so much for all your contributions to Wikipedia. Please know that your work is greatly appreciated. I am learning a lot from you. You make the internet a better place. Peace! Bianca Anne Martins ( talk) 20:34, 3 February 2023 (UTC) |
Always wanted these sort of barnstars!! I'm almost a year and 1000 edits old here on WP. This means that I'm close to either you or anyone nominating me for an admin or bureaucrat someday. Intrisit ( talk) 20:34, 4 February 2023 (UTC)
Hi, I saw you moved Boomerang Nordic and Turkey pages to Cartoonito Nordic and Turkey, by writing "The 2023 changeovers from Boomerage to Cartoonito need no explanations", what did you mean with that frase? Is Cartoonito it a transition or a replacement to Boomerang? I want you to remember that in UK, France and Italy they have both Boomerang and Cartoonito as two separate channels who broadcast together in the same country. As someone proposed to split in two pages Cartoonito Asia and Boomerang Asia and made that split, the same thing hasn't been done on Boomerang CEE, Portugal and Africa, affirming that Boomerang's transition to Cartoonito is a transition not a rebrand (check out this difference and this discussion), making other people misunderstand that Cartoonito is still the same channel as Boomerang, just with another name. Too bad in UK, France and Italy it isn't like so: Cartoonito coexists alongside Boomerang as the two brands are broadcasting as two separate channels, both of which are broadcasting different shows: Boomerang broadcasts some shows which Cartoonito doesn't. I'm proposing to split Cartoonito CEE, Portugal, EMEA, Nordic and Turkey pages in two pages for each feed, so we could avoid confusion between the two brands, which are completely different.
What do you think it's better? Splitting the mentioned pages in two or leaving one page for two channels which only in appearance are similar? Remember what I said about UK, Italy and France. I propose for the splitting, since Boomerang and Cartoonito are two different brands of Warner Bros Discovery 79.21.5.118 ( talk) 21:02, 5 September 2023 (UTC)
Hello. Thank you for your edits wrapping redirect templates in {{ Redirect category shell}}. Please be sure to keep a line break (i.e. hit enter) after {{ Redirect category shell}}, between each category, and before the final two braces.
For example:
{{Redirect category shell| {{R from move}} {{R to disambiguation page}} }}
Not:
{{Redirect category shell|{{R from move}}{{R to disambiguation page}}}}
Thank you. InfiniteNexus ( talk) 18:44, 15 September 2023 (UTC)
Also, when you update rcats after a move, do not remove or replace the {{ R from move}} template, instead you may add additional relevant rcats on new lines with the rcat shell. Mdewman6 ( talk) 23:02, 15 September 2023 (UTC)
Hi, Pppery! I saw you declined my history merge request. I thought a history merge request suffices beyond just cut-and-paste, copy-and-paste, cut-paste, copy-paste or copypaste scenarios. I requested it because in as much as they are separate creations, one is in the draft namespace (which could get published in the mainspace) and the other is already in the mainspace.

The 2024 WikiCup is off to a flying start, with 135 participants. This is the largest number of participants we have seen since 2017.
Our current leader is newcomer Generalissima ( submissions), who has one FA on John Littlejohn (preacher) and 10 GAs and 12 DYKs mostly on New Zealand coinage and Inuit figures. Here are some more noteworthy scorers:
As a reminder, competitors may submit work for the first round until 23:59 (UTC) on 27 February, and the second round starts 1 March. Remember that only the top 64 scoring competitors will make it through to the second round; currently, competitors need at least 15 points to progress. If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, and you hope to get it promoted before the end of the round, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAN, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which could otherwise be caused by the Cup. As ever, questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges ( Cwmhiraeth ( talk · contribs), Epicgenius ( talk · contribs), and Frostly ( talk · contribs)) are reachable on their talk pages.

I've been patrolling content pages with the category "Pages with templates in the wrong namespace" for over a month now, but it seems that that the talk page sections of pages with the "WikiProject Templates" template is counted as such. Because of the assumption of numerous transclusions or usages of that template which could mean a template protection, I'm seeking answers or clarity from you, the Admin community, instead of using the {{help me}} template as to why so?!

Hi Xaosflux and JJMC89! Happy belated New Year in advance! I want to draw your attention to this user ( Amortias), who is still an admin, despite his/her last logged edit or action coming on 23 March 2023 (almost a year ago) per my latest glance at the user's contributions page. Per WP:ADMINACTIVITY2022 and WP:INACTIVITY, this user must have had his/her admin rights removed/revoked a long time ago. After it's done, please reply so I can remove this notice from my page. Thanks! Intrisit ( talk) 19:50, 20 February 2024 (UTC)
"Has made neither edits nor administrative actions for at least a 12-month period"- you identified an edit 11 months ago.
"Has made fewer than 100 edits over a 60-month period."- their most recent 100 edits span only ~25 months.
Hi, Primefac and Amakuru! I've been monitoring and continue to monitor erroneous facets contained inside articles and pages indexed at Category:Pages with templates in the wrong namespace, but upon entering Category:Non-talk pages with an edit request template, I've found two MediaWiki/interface pages which may have errors in them. Due to my user rights, I'm unable to edit them. Should I leave them as they are? Intrisit ( talk) 18:51, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
<noinclude>
around the request which appears to have cleared the category. Now you know for next time :-)

talk) 19:59, 25 March 2024 (UTC)The first round of the 2024 WikiCup ended at 23:59 (UTC) on 27 February. Everyone with at least 30 points moved on to Round 2, the highest number of points required to advance to the second round since 2014. Due to a six-way tie for the 64th-place spot, 67 contestants have qualified for Round 2.
The following scorers in Round 1 all scored more than 300 points:
In this newsletter, the judges would like to pay a special tribute to Vami_IV ( submissions), who unfortunately passed away this February. At the time of his death, he was the second-highest-scoring competitor. Outside the WikiCup, he had eight other featured articles, five A-class articles, eight other good articles, and two Four Awards. Vami also wrote an essay on completionism, a philosophy in which he deeply believed. If you can, please join us in honoring his memory by improving one of the articles on his to-do list.
Remember that any content promoted after 27 February but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2. Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. Remember, if two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, feel free to review one of the nominations listed on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages. Good luck!

Please do not blank pages you are tagging for speedy deletion. A reviewer then has to go into the page history to see what the page looked like before it was tagged. It doesn't speed things up at all, it actually takes more time for the admin reviewing the page. Just add the appropriate CSD tag. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 19:38, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
