- Your edit was undone since it removed a section of text without explanation, which is considered blanking. For a page in your language, see fa:WP:لخت. --Leonidlednev (T, C, L) 16:22, 11 October 2024 (UTC)

- Doesn't RedWarn prevent you from rolling back edits when the edit isn't the most recent version? --Leonidlednev (T, C, L) 16:15, 17 October 2024 (UTC)
Administrator Elections: Candidate instructions
[edit]Thank you for choosing to run in the October 2024 administrator elections. This bulletin contains some important information about the next stages of the election process.
As a reminder, the schedule of the election is:
- October 15–21: SecurePoll setup phase
- October 22–24: Discussion phase
- October 25–31: SecurePoll voting phase
- November 1–?: Scrutineering phase
We are currently in the SecurePoll setup phase. Your candidate subpage will remain closed to questions and discussion. However, this is an excellent opportunity for you to recruit nominators (if you want them) and have them place their nomination statements, and a good time for you to answer the standard three questions, if you have not done so already. We recommend you spend the SecurePoll setup phase from October 15–21 getting your candidate page polished and ready for the next phase.
The discussion phase will take place from October 22–24. Your candidate subpage will open to the public and they will be permitted to discuss you and ask you formal questions, in the same style as a request for adminship (RfA). Please make sure you are around on those dates to answer the formal questions in a timely manner.
On October 25, we will start the voting phase. The candidate subpages will close again to public questions and discussion, and everyone will have a week to use the SecurePoll software to vote, which uses a secret ballot. Anyone can see who has voted, but not who they voted for. You are permitted and encouraged to vote in the election, including voting for yourself. Please note that the vote tallies cannot be made public until after voting has ended and as such, it will not be possible for you to see your tally during the election. The suffrage requirements are different from those at RfA.
Once voting concludes, we will begin the scrutineering phase, which will last for an indeterminate amount of time, perhaps a week or two. Once everything is certified, the results will be posted on the main election page. In order to be granted adminship, you must have received at least 70% support, calculated as support ÷ (support + oppose). As this is a vote and not a consensus, there are no bureaucrat discussions ("'crat chats").
Any questions or issues can be asked on the election talk page. Thank you for your participation as a candidate, and best of luck.

Our Admin Election Test
[edit]Hello there. As we're preparing to move from one stage to the next, this is just a quick note from one member of the test group to another, wishing you well in the process of this new alternative to RfA. It seems that there are more of us in this group than some in the community anticipated, so i hope that doesn't make the experience any the worse for all of us. Whatever our individual results, i thank you, along with the rest, for stepping up and testing this process; happy days, ~ LindsayHello 07:12, 21 October 2024 (UTC)

Invitation to participate in a research
[edit]Hello,
The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Wikipedia, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.
You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.
The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .
Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.
Kind Regards,

Question from Lucielindsay70 (11:41, 28 October 2024)
[edit]Hello Leon, I was wondering if I cannot publish a new article on Wikipedia rather than working on edits. So, basically learning about rules while working on sandbox. Is that possible?
Please let me know. --Lucielindsay70 (talk) 11:41, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
- What article are you trying to publish? --Leonidlednev (T, C, L) 14:05, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
Zaxbys page updates
[edit]Hi Leon- I wanted to update a few things on the Zaxbys restaurant page as the company has recently undergone a rebranding and the page is very outdated. I tried to update some basic messaging from their site that is more accurate and it was declined. Could you help clarify how to best update outdated information if going in and editing isn't the best approach? Kasey Ryan (talk) 14:48, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
- The edit you tried to implement sounded promotional in nature (with phrases such as "most famous for...") and had issues with the Manual of Style, specifically MOS:TM. Also, it looks like you were active under the account User:Zaxmarketing, which was blocked for spamming. --Leonidlednev (T, C, L) 15:21, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
Hello, I am trying to update some of the inaccuracies currently on The Toro Company's page. After reading that it is advised to publish your suggested changes on the page's Talk page first, I did so last week. Is there a different approach that I should be taking in updating the page so there are no inaccuracies? We receive a lot of questions on this page given the content is outdated. Thank you. --MGToro (talk) 14:36, 6 November 2024 (UTC)
- @MGToro: The proposed edit is a direct copy from the Dun and Bradstreet website, which is a copyright violation. Also, you likely have a conflict of interest based on your username, which represents the company whose page you are trying to edit. It is advisable to request a username change on Special:GlobalRenameRequest to avoid a username block. --Leonidlednev (T, C, L) 16:59, 6 November 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you! I read that it is advised to disclose any conflict of interest ahead of time, rather than to try and edit a page when you have an affiliation. Do you suggest otherwise? Also, the proposed change is not a direct copy from Dun and Bradstreet. Can you look again? Thank you. 170.92.1.251 (talk) 20:06, 7 November 2024 (UTC)
- Yes, you can add an {{edit COI}} to the section, add any COIs/paid editing jobs you have on your user page, and review the sources to make sure that the information is the latest. I also think that you got logged out while trying to edit this page. Make sure you log in. --Leonidlednev (T, C, L) 20:48, 7 November 2024 (UTC)
