Prophet (company) article

Dear Mailinaccier, I just posted this article in the mainspace and would greatly appreciate it if you could please review it when you have a chance. I also could use your help in an administrative fashion. While creating this article I inadvertently created another version, which I am unable to locate (while in Edit mode, see the top of the posted article - there appear to be references to the earlier version there). I intended it to be a draft on my sub-page but something went awry. If you can please remove the earlier version, that would be wonderful. Thank you!Braedon Farr (talk) 17:21, 9 January 2012 (UTC)

Hey there, sorry I couldn't get to this in a timely fashion. I have been very busy recently. Malinaccier (talk) 13:37, 1 March 2012 (UTC)

Your welcome template

Hello! I'm afraid I've pinched most of your welcome template. Was that okay? User:Anna Frodesiak/Welcome Asking permission was an afterthought. I'm so sorry. :) If you want me to not use it, just say. By the way, it's very nice. :) Anna Frodesiak (talk) 11:21, 15 February 2012 (UTC)

It's no problem at all :). Malinaccier (talk) 13:36, 1 March 2012 (UTC)

MSU Interview

Dear Malinaccier,

My name is Jonathan Obar user:Jaobar, I'm a professor in the College of Communication Arts and Sciences at Michigan State University and a Teaching Fellow with the Wikimedia Foundation's Education Program. This semester I've been running a little experiment at MSU, a class where we teach students about becoming Wikipedia administrators. Not a lot is known about your community, and our students (who are fascinated by wiki-culture by the way!) want to learn how you do what you do, and why you do it. A while back I proposed this idea (the class) to the communityHERE, where it was met mainly with positive feedback. Anyhow, I'd like my students to speak with a few administrators to get a sense of admin experiences, training, motivations, likes, dislikes, etc. We were wondering if you'd be interested in speaking with one of our students.


So a few things about the interviews:

  • Interviews will last between 15 and 30 minutes.
  • Interviews can be conducted over skype (preferred), IRC or email. (You choose the form of communication based upon your comfort level, time, etc.)
  • All interviews will be completely anonymous, meaning that you (real name and/or pseudonym) will never be identified in any of our materials, unless you give the interviewer permission to do so.
  • All interviews will be completely voluntary. You are under no obligation to say yes to an interview, and can say no and stop or leave the interview at any time.
  • The entire interview process is being overseen by MSU's institutional review board (ethics review). This means that all questions have been approved by the university and all students have been trained how to conduct interviews ethically and properly.


Bottom line is that we really need your help, and would really appreciate the opportunity to speak with you. If interested, please send me an email at obar@msu.edu (to maintain anonymity) and I will add your name to my offline contact list. If you feel comfortable doing so, you can post your nameHERE instead.

If you have questions or concerns at any time, feel free to email me at obar@msu.edu. I will be more than happy to speak with you.

Thanks in advance for your help. We have a lot to learn from you.

Sincerely,

Jonathan Obar --Jaobar (talk) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chlopeck (talk • contribs) 04:01, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

Atethnekos rollback and reviewer

Thanks for the vote of confidence. I've read the relevant material and tried out STiki, which seems very useful so far.--Atethnekos (Discussion, Contributions) 04:02, 26 February 2013 (UTC)

Good! I'm not personally familiar with STiki, but it sounds like a powerful tool. Keep up the good work. Malinaccier (talk) 04:12, 26 February 2013 (UTC)

Trusted user?

Hi Malinaccier! Thankyou for the status update :). I just looked up what it means. --Tobias1984 (talk) 20:37, 26 February 2013 (UTC)

No problem! The request for you to have the permission was made by another user (which is unusual), but it was a good suggestion. Your created pages have always been of exceptional quality. Happy editing! Malinaccier (talk) 20:39, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
What exactly are my new permissions (Couldn't find that)? Can I know who nominated me? --Tobias1984 (talk) 20:48, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
You now have the autopatrolled permission, which basically means that any article you create is automatically marked as "patrolled" in the new pages log. Basically nothing changes except that you have been labelled as a trusted article creator that does not need to be patrolled. You can read more about what that means here. You were nominated by User:Gilo1969 in this edit. Usually users request permissions for themselves. Let me know if you have other questions. Malinaccier (talk) 20:55, 26 February 2013 (UTC)

WP:FOOD Needs You!

Hi there Malinaccier! I've noticed you have yourself listed as a member of the Food and Drink Wikiproject. Unfortunately it looks like the project has been slowly sliding into inactivity except for a couple of people. That makes me a sad potato, and nobody likes a sad potato amirite?

If you'd like to turn my frown upside down, can you do two small things?

First off, go here and add {{Tick}} (checkY) next to your name if you're still part of the project.

Second, go to the project talkpage and participate in a discussion about how to make the project more active, and how to go about making articles in our area of interest a lot better.

You don't want to make me cry, do you? Potatoes have a lot of eyes you know. So come on, join in! :)

I don't think indefinite semi-protection is warranted for this page. Could you consider an alternative? Dogmaticeclectic (talk) 19:01, 11 October 2013 (UTC)

Another administrator has now changed the semi-protection to pending changes per my request, but I still don't think any type of indefinite - as opposed to temporary - protection is warranted in this case; I would ask that you comment on this. Dogmaticeclectic (talk) 00:26, 19 October 2013 (UTC)

Hi, I am clearly not all that active on Wikipedia. You want a nomination from an editor who is trusted by the community and is an active participant in discussion. My low activity levels don't qualify me as such. Best of luck, Malinaccier (talk) 20:56, 10 April 2016 (UTC)

Attention: Potions in Harry Potter will be placed for AfD on June 4, 2016

(You are receiving this notice due to your having made some edits to the article discussed or its talk page sometime during its history)

In November of 2007 Potions in Harry Potter was deleted as a the result of a deletion discussion due to its failure of WP:FICT, WP:PLOT, WP:WAF, and other issues. On June 4, 2015 the article was recreated from content then currently existing on the Magical objects in Harry Potter article. A discussion followed regarding the appropriateness of the recreation. An attempt was made to return this article to a redirect, which was undone a day later. Some months later, a notice was placed on the article's talk page indicating the article would be placed for deletion. A few days ago, the article was placed for proposed deletion. This too was undone.

Throughout the history of the article, which spans more than a decade, it has never had any references. It has always been written in in-universe style. No outside universe perspective has ever been provided. As of June 2016, it will have been tagged for both of these problems for a year. I have asked, begged, and pleaded with people to rewrite this article to no avail. As the article stands (and has always stood), it continues to fail WP:FICT, WP:PLOT, and WP:WAF. There have been suggestions to merge the content back to Magical objects in Harry Potter, but this completely fails to address the failures noted. Where the content exists, either in its own article or as part of another, matters not. The issue is the content itself.

Barring a massive rewrite of the entire article into something that is encyclopedic in its treatment of the subject, I will be placing it for deletion on June 4, 2016. This notice is being sent as a last ditch attempt to find one or more people willing to do something to fix the serious problems extant in this content. Thank you for your attention, --Hammersoft (talk) 17:19, 4 April 2016 (UTC)

Yes, this article should probably be deleted. Thanks for the notice, though. Malinaccier (talk) 20:55, 10 April 2016 (UTC)

Extended confirmed protection

Hello, Malinaccier. This message is intended to notify administrators of important changes to the protection policy.

Extended confirmed protection (also known as "30/500 protection") is a new level of page protection that only allows edits from accounts at least 30 days old and with 500 edits. The automatically assigned "extended confirmed" user right was created for this purpose. The protection level was created following this community discussion with the primary intention of enforcing various arbitration remedies that prohibited editors under the "30 days/500 edits" threshold to edit certain topic areas.

In July and August 2016, a request for comment established consensus for community use of the new protection level. Administrators are authorized to apply extended confirmed protection to combat any form of disruption (e.g. vandalism, sock puppetry, edit warring, etc.) on any topic, subject to the following conditions:

  • Extended confirmed protection may only be used in cases where semi-protection has proven ineffective. It should not be used as a first resort.
  • A bot will post a notification at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard of each use. MusikBot currently does this by updating a report, which is transcluded onto the noticeboard.

Please review the protection policy carefully before using this new level of protection on pages. Thank you.
This message was sent to the administrators' mass message list. To opt-out of future messages, please remove yourself from the list. 17:48, 23 September 2016 (UTC)

Two-Factor Authentication now available for admins

Hello,

Please note that TOTP based two-factor authentication is now available for all administrators. In light of the recent compromised accounts, you are encouraged to add this additional layer of security to your account. It may be enabled on your preferences page in the "User profile" tab under the "Basic information" section. For basic instructions on how to enable two-factor authentication, please see the developing help page for additional information. Important: Be sure to record the two-factor authentication key and the single use keys. If you lose your two factor authentication and do not have the keys, it's possible that your account will not be recoverable. Furthermore, you are encouraged to utilize a unique password and two-factor authentication for the email account associated with your Wikimedia account.

A new user right for New Page Patrollers

Hi Malinaccier.

A new user group, New Page Reviewer, has been created in a move to greatly improve the standard of new page patrolling. The user right can be granted by any admin at PERM. It is highly recommended that admins look beyond the simple numerical threshold and satisfy themselves that the candidates have the required skills of communication and an advanced knowledge of notability and deletion. Admins are automatically included in this user right.

It is anticipated that this user right will significantly reduce the work load of admins who patrol the performance of the patrollers. However,due to the complexity of the rollout, some rights may have been accorded that may later need to be withdrawn, so some help will still be needed to some extent when discovering wrongly applied deletion tags or inappropriate pages that escape the attention of less experienced reviewers, and above all, hasty and bitey tagging for maintenance. User warnings are available here but very often a friendly custom message works best.

If you have any questions about this user right, don't hesitate to join us at WT:NPR. (Sent to all admins).MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:47, 15 November 2016 (UTC)
