Could you look at this article and see if it is a qualifier for deletion? I can't decide. Kingsmasher678 (talk) 00:53, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I tentatively don't think it's a notable person, but my track record for deciding that isn't the greatest. Is there a place where the info could be merged, and the current article turned into a redirect? Joyous! Noise! 02:18, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe, but the article is also unsourced. If it had valid sources, I would merge it with something, but as it is? IDK.

Kingsmasher678 (talk) 02:37, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hm. True. You can certainly toss it in the AFD pile and see what happens. No harm if it results in a "keep." If you want to find a better opinion (not difficult, since the military isn't really my area), you could look through the histories of related pages to see who has a clue about Russian history or the military of that era more generally. Joyous! Noise! 02:40, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'll send it to AFD and if notable someone will come out of the woodwork and save it. Thanks for the help!

Kingsmasher678 (talk) 02:44, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure how helpful I was, but you're welcome. I hope the new talk page fit ok, and wasn't too snug. Joyous! Noise! 02:46, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry to be a bother again, but could you take a look at the AfD board right now? It needs some attention. Kingsmasher678 (talk) 02:54, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Joyous,

In reference to Talk:Intel Core § Merger proposal, I am pleased to report that the merging of the Core 2, i3, i5, i7, i9, M lists into the "List of Intel Core processors" page is complete!

The tables have all been reworked to improve efficiency and reduce clutter, which solved the article size problem. This has been by far the absolute biggest project that I've ever completed on here!

So anyways, the following pages now need to be turned into redirects to List of Intel Core processors:

• List of Intel Core 2 processors
• List of Intel Core i3 processors
• List of Intel Core i5 processors
• List of Intel Core i7 processors
• List of Intel Core i9 processors
• List of Intel Core M processors

You said to me on that talk page discussion that you have some automated script or something that does the turning of the former pages into redirects, the placing of the talk page notices and whatnot. Could you please run that here? Cheers — AP 499D25 (talk) 11:29, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Tell you what, what I'll do instead, is do the redirecting of the original pages into the merged page myself, and let you know once I've done that.

Although the merging is complete, I've still got a bit of work to do in regards to adding anchors to the section headings to make section links from other articles and from URLs still work, so basically it is not 100% but 99.5% complete. I'm going to do that one last task before converting the original pages into redirects, as I feel like if I do that afterwards, I'll create a bit of a 'high-traffic' situation on the target page, and I may run into those incredibly annoying edit conflicts. — AP 499D25 (talk) 15:15, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry I couldn't respond earlier today--I was about to head out the door for a volunteer gig. (Orphaned baby raccoons. They're adorable and evil in equal measure.) Just let me know when you're ready. And thanks for all of the hard work. Joyous! Noise! 20:06, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That's okay, I wrote that message very late at night yesterday. Sounds like a bit of fun! Will do. — AP 499D25 (talk) 23:42, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Alrighty, it is now all complete! — AP 499D25 (talk) 02:37, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

And the Easy-Merge bits are done. Joyous! Noise! 02:42, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks a lot!

I think I spent a grand total of a couple weeks worth of time rewriting all the Core i tables in the new layout.

Although soon I may start a split request to put the i3/i5/i7/i9 processors into a new "List of Intel Core i3/i5/i7/i9 processors" combined article, as Intel changed up their naming system with the 2024 processor releases, and from there, if it goes like that I will start a new page "List of Intel Core and Core Ultra 3/5/7/9 processors" for the new and future models to go under, along with "List of Intel Processor processors" for the Intel Processor-branded Pentium replacements. This would make it easier to find those newly named processor models than if we all had it in one article.

Anyways I appreciate the assistance! — AP 499D25 (talk) 03:19, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, can you take a look at this edit by Sanushasunil, who you previously warned about copyvios? His newest edit seems to copy [1]. Air on White (talk) 05:09, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! I performed rev/del on that edit, and I'll ask Sanushasuni if they understand what the problem is. That poor article has taken quite a pounding in the last couple of days. I wonder if there's a class being assigned to edit it? I haven't quite gotten to the point of wanting to protect it, but the idea is swirling around. Joyous! Noise! 14:48, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

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) 19:36, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Joyous!, Can you check the accuracy of this article? 2 IP address ranges 2001:1388:A44:0:0:0:0:0 and 2001:1388:A45:0:0:0:0:0 All edits from the IP address found to be the same person. Harassing and deleting content in other articles which had administrators warn and rollback more than 20 disruptive edits Found the latest edit, redo it. 2001:1388:A44:E5F7:24AC:CE3C:BE06:1E4A https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/2001:1388:A44:E5F7:24AC:CE3C:BE06:1E4A 2001:1388:A44:EDDB:98F3:C8BE:82C6:175D https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/2001:1388:A44:EDDB:98F3:C8BE:82C6:175D Repeatedly adding unsourced content and deleting maintenance tags by correcting them and not explained in the article Nine (singer) in terms of being a fan club Due to adding content to live broadcast activities to sell products Duplicate content is added which is not important. As with most of the content in this article

The entire article was edited by the same person, unexplained removal of maintenance tags, and recently used a new IP address to add a lot of unsourced content.

Edit history Nine (singer) has only one person, IP addresses starting with 2001:1388:A45 and 2001:1388:A44 all are the same person The edits will be made in the same way, namely adding information to the article without the source in Nine (singer) and deleting and disturbing other articles. which always has admin rollback This person made repeated changes with new IP addresses like this.

Administrators address disruptive IP address user behavior issues. Continuously adding unsourced content to Nine (singer) A single person from Lima, Peru, used the IP address to reverse an update notification. Unexplained deletion of maintenance tags Modifications were not performed according to the maintenance tag instructions. Please disturb other articles as well. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/2001:1388:A45:7B00:358F:FBE6:A148:46A0

repeated addition of unsourced content I think examining a person is difficult. This person from Lima, Peru uses a different IP address every time they resolve. Every time delete and add information to another article. will be reversed Then edit again with the new IP address.

This person created information in the Nine (singer) article and also caused mischief in other articles. Add information without references Administrators always roll back edits that this person deleted on other articles. Editing that disturbs another article and edited and added information only to the article Nine (singer) The person using all IP addresses in this Nine (singer) article is the same person who removed the maintenance tag without editing it.

The person using all the IP addresses I attached is the same person. I'm only giving examples because there are many. The entire article Nine (singer) has an IP address from the same person from Lima, Peru, but the IP address in the update is different every time the information is added. This person deleted the maintenance tag notice. Delete without correcting Most articles lack references. As I looked at the article's history, Nine (singer) has been doing this for a long time, but no user has come to check on this person.

Hi MeetHoneyBee. I'm looking at the article's history, and seeing that The Herald has been doing some work on weeding out unsourced information, and on restoring maintenance tags. That may be a better person to help you. I just restored the page to the last version by The Herald. How does it look to you? Joyous! Noise! 21:03, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Is there a reason SilverPersonal765 wasn't just indeffed? They've been blocked before and haven't heeded or responded to blocks or warnings. TornadoLGS (talk) 00:16, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I probably should have indeffed, but I was a little curious about whether they'd stop altogether, or move their attention to a different article. I am keeping an eye on them, and will happily indef at another problematic edit. Joyous! Noise! 00:21, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Their block expired and they still aren't providing a source for their edits at Bikita District. How about an indefinite partial block from that article?   –Skywatcher68 (talk) 14:53, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I can't indefinitely block an IP, but I have partially blocked from that article for a year. Thanks for watching the heads-up. Joyous! Noise! 20:39, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, will you please help resolve this conflict?

Since April 17th, FarEasternMarket has been making edits and revisions to the page .

The edits are written in an organizational structure and tone that appear to reflect underlying political bias in overemphasizing the museums supposed connection and relationship to the PRC.

Largely irrelevant and unsubstantiated anecdotes are added into multiple segments of the wiki that highlight tangential relationships and claim causal connections often through factual omission.

For example the agenda section of the wiki attempts to make ideological links between the museum and the PRCs political agenda by citing the content, or lack thereof, of previous exhibits. The author has no specific knowledge of the museums intent and curatorial design to include or exclude certain elements within an exhibit and cannot claim supposed political connection purely through omission of content.

The content should focus on factual and relevant information pertaining to established elements of the museum rather than supposed or assumed conjecture. 67.83.95.59 (talk) 15:05, 18 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think that qualifies as "grossly" inappropriate. The criteria specifically state that rev/del isn't to be used for "ordinary" incivility, personal attacks or conduct accusations." Joyous! Noise! 20:50, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Try inviting the IP to the article's talk page, or engage with him on his. I doubt that he's reading your edit summary, so he may not understand the issue. From his point of view, we wanted a source, and he gave us a source. Joyous! Noise! 01:58, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Can you please revise the edits made to Robert (doll) 15:44, 15 May 2024‎? And let me know where I went wrong with updating the information?

This edit was made in response to user @LuckyLouie undo-ing my initial edits due to some sources that were not credible. I had attempted to delete the citations that were not credible and publish the page with my initial edit but @LuckyLouie reverted them in the same hour.

Please also see my talk page where the edits were discussed? Also be sure to see the comments made by @Donald Albury as well.

Hello Joyous, I am replying to your message sent in regards to the recent edit of Kristy Swanson (Actress). The edits I made were fact based and in no way insulting or demeaning towards the individual in queation. Swanson herself has proudly said she is a "Maga Republican" and has distanced herself from what she has called "Rino Republicans". Additionally, her stance on the Covid Vaccine is documented. Further information was added simply for additional insight into this individual. Thank you for allowing me to explain, I hope that clarifies your initial concern. 75.140.183.47 (talk) 19:32, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! Thanks for your kind note. The issue isn't so much the MAGA Republican label being in there. It's just that if that label is going to be applied, it needs to be cited to a reliable source. If she's calling herself that, then GREAT! There's probably a news article somewhere that could be added as a reference. Joyous! Noise! 01:34, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It appears that the user has added in sources from the subject matter directly (her Twitter posts as well as news articles). Thanks to you both for the clarification! CoryMH87 (talk) 07:36, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, while I have no conflict with the blocking of Nsnndnc7 for their hineous edits to Toothpaste, why did you block them without any warning? Is there a special rule that lets you bypass this for obvious vandalism accounts or something? Just curious. Cheers, GoldRomean (talk) 23:23, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi GoldRomean! Thanks for dropping by and asking about that. Yes, our page on vandalism states: Vandalism is prohibited. While editors are encouraged to warn and educate vandals, warnings are by no means a prerequisite for blocking a vandal (although administrators usually block only when multiple warnings have been issued). I almost always give multiple warnings to editors who are vandalizing the encyclopedia, but I make an exception in instances like this. Joyous! Noise! 00:01, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, thanks for explaining! While you're at it, do you mind blocking Deweasm? There's a report filed at AIV but they keeps reverting editors' reverts and all of their edits are vandalism and it's quite annoying. GoldRomean (talk) 00:05, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, said Me Da Wikipedian here. What edits of yours have I reverted (outside of your vandalism on my userpage). I would like to remind to assume good faith of me and refrain from personal attacks.

Those are opposites and induced incorrect information to the the article, as a such were reverted. If you have a reliable source for the change, please provide it.

I don't know enough about the topic to really have valid input. Look at the sources to see if they look reputable. If you think something should be changed, then maybe start a discussion on the talk page to see if others agree. Have sources ready, though.
