Irish darts - again

Hi Keith - I'm afraid our long-term problem has not abated - please could I request another range block on 89.19.76.0/22 (talk · contribs · WHOIS). As can be seen there has only been one edit that is not a blatantly obvious sockpuppet since the last block expired - There were three one-month blocks in 2022 - is it time for a 3-month block? many thanks - Arjayay (talk) 16:52, 10 January 2023 (UTC)

Hello again, I have done a 3-month block, if it works OK this time. Keith D (talk) 19:53, 10 January 2023 (UTC)
Thanks - I'm sure he'll continue with the non-Vodaphone IPs but these seem more difficult - I assume he has to travel - Thanks again - Arjayay (talk) 20:39, 10 January 2023 (UTC)
Errrmmm - I'm not sure what is happening - I wonder if you have only blocked 89.19.76.0 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) - the block log for the 89.19.76.0/22 range shows the three earlier one month blocks - but no three month block - whilst the individual IPs in that range, such as IP:89.19.79.126 do not appear as blocked. Confused.com - Arjayay (talk) 21:37, 10 January 2023 (UTC)
Hi, I have tried again and 89.19.76.0/22 now appears to be blocked, looked at 89.19.79.126, but the block option is not in the menu for some reason, may by the other ones have set it? Keith D (talk) 21:57, 10 January 2023 (UTC)
Yup - that has now caught the individual IPs in the range - thanks again - Arjayay (talk) 22:03, 10 January 2023 (UTC)

A46 junctions table

Hello Keith D, just saw your message over at Talk:A46 road - in theory, then yes, I should, however I am really busy at the moment. But at the same time, the article description of the route is very descriptive (for example, It meets the B1213 from the right, then crosses the A16 Peaks Parkway where it gains primary status.)

Hello, I'm Qwerfjkl (bot). I have automatically detected that this edit performed by you, on the page Johnny English Strikes Again, may have introduced referencing errors. They are as follows:

  • A "bare URL" error. References show this error when one of the URL-containing parameters cannot be paired with an associated title. Please edit the article to add the appropriate title parameter to the reference. (Fix | Ask for help)

Please check this page and fix the errors highlighted. If you think this is a false positive, you can report it to my operator. Thanks, Qwerfjkl (bot) (talk) 22:56, 8 March 2023 (UTC)

Thank you!

AWB getting confused

Hey! this edit tagged as AWB appears to have magically duplicated a paragraph. I've fixed it since, but you might want to look into that. Aidan9382 (talk) 14:31, 10 March 2023 (UTC)

@Aidan9382: Many thanks for spotting that, I have no idea why it did that. I probably missed it with skim of diffs because not to helpful sometimes when it inserts/removes lines. Must be the general fixes bit as not so many changes to a copy not in main space. Keith D (talk) 18:05, 10 March 2023 (UTC)

88.109.26.4

Our dart-vandalizing friend 88.109.26.4 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) has started being very obnoxious in his edits "he dun a poo" "he stinks of urine" "What I do before a game is eat lots of red meat and foul smelling french cheeses. This gives me terrible wind which is stinking! te hee!" " he decided to relieve himself in a nearby Police station doorway" etc. could you range block please - Arjayay (talk) 20:30, 12 March 2023 (UTC)

Thanks, I have blocked for 3-months. Keith D (talk) 21:30, 12 March 2023 (UTC)

Please check two page moves for me?

I hope you don't mind me bothering you with this, but I have been asked to make this request to an admin., and I am hoping it will be OK as these articles are on your patch.

I have been asked to move two pages, from Richard Ellis (mayor of Harrogate) and David Simpson (mayor of Harrogate) to Richard Ellis (mayor) and David Simpson (mayor), which I have done. I have removed every redirect that I can find, but maybe there are some hidden ones or double redirects that you can resolve? Thank you. Storye book (talk) 12:17, 19 March 2023 (UTC)

Hello, I have had a look and only found one page that needed changing. I think the rest are BOT generated pages and should disappear when the next run takes place. Keith D (talk) 14:29, 19 March 2023 (UTC)

Hi Keith, how are you? I was wondering how do you start a GA review? Thanks, Roads4117 (talk) 09:38, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
