theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 00:37, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

@Theleekycauldron thank you so much! I'm hopeful that I won't be carrying this for too long ;) Hey man im josh (talk) 00:39, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

Draft:Istanbul Express deletion

Thanks. You too. Cheers! Shir-El too 11:33, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

Nice to see the upgrade

Do you have sufficient floor cleaner and a really big bucket? 🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 18:46, 26 September 2023 (UTC)

Thank you! Is there every really sufficient floor cleaner for all that the mops need to take care of? Hey man im josh (talk) 19:01, 26 September 2023 (UTC)

It was a surprise to see you newly endowed with janitorial equipment. I thought you'd already got the keys to the cleaning cupboard. 🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 19:24, 26 September 2023 (UTC)

Here you go...

JBW (talk) 20:58, 26 September 2023 (UTC)

@JBW: You're too kind! I must say, I think this flamethrower is the coolest of all the gifts I've received now that I'm an admin :) Hey man im josh (talk) 12:13, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

And I've also included this particular flamethrower, because it comes with safety catches. Use with care, and only after AGF has been exhausted. JBW (talk) 08:12, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

Congratulations

Well done on such a successful mop application. I think you deserve it. Well done, and achieved in 3 years too. 👏 Knitsey (talk) 21:13, 26 September 2023 (UTC)

@Knitsey thank you so much! I hope not to let those who supported me when. Hey man im josh (talk) 00:40, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

I'm quite sure you are going to do really well. Cool head, helpful, knows policy, admits when you're wrong, pays attention to detail. These are all thing that, in my noobish and humble opinion, make a good admin. Well deserved I say. Knitsey (talk) 12:16, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

A pie for you!

Here's something to chew while you try to manoeuvre your way through the new buttons (at least that's what I hear). Many congratulations on your successful RfA. Cheers 👏👏👏🍾🥂 - Volten001 ☎ 03:45, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

There are a lot of new buttons that I'm both intimidated by, and interested in smashing because "ooo buttons!" I am however proceeding cautiously and carefully. Thank you for the pie and the congrats! Hey man im josh (talk) 12:15, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

Hehee... I get you and it's a nice idea to tread carefully while you familiarize yourself with them buttons. Anyway, you're most welcome and see you around! Volten001 ^☎ 15:05, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

Felicitations

Thank you! Hey man im josh (talk) 12:10, 28 September 2023 (UTC)

Congratulations on the successful RFA! NotAGenious (talk) 13:57, 28 September 2023 (UTC)

Spaghetti House siege

Firstly, congratulations on your new Admin status. Thanks also for the visibility changes on the Spaghetti House siege vandalism. There was one edit earlier in the day that could also probably be changed - this porn image. If you're able to do that, I'd be much obliged. Cheers - SchroCat (talk) 18:03, 28 September 2023 (UTC)

@SchroCat: Thank you both for the congratulations and for bringing this to my attention! I've hidden that revision. Hey man im josh (talk) 18:08, 28 September 2023 (UTC)

Oh, and I'm going through that vandal's contributions and hiding other similar edits. Hey man im josh (talk) 18:09, 28 September 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for the rev/dels. Midori No Sora asked for them earlier but I don't think the admin has been back on Wikipedia yet. Knitsey (talk) 18:16, 28 September 2023 (UTC)

No problem. I believe I've taken care of everything (including Midori No Sora's talk page), so please do feel free to point me towards anything I've missed @Knitsey. Hey man im josh (talk) 18:22, 28 September 2023 (UTC)

• Perfect - thanks very much! Cheers - SchroCat (talk) 18:23, 28 September 2023 (UTC)

help me

hey help for protect my user page from anonymous edits. thanks Jhonblvk (talk) 18:47, 28 September 2023 (UTC)

@Jhonblvk: You've never had your user page or talk page edited by an anonymous user. We do not protect pages unless there's a demonstrated need. Hey man im josh (talk) 18:49, 28 September 2023 (UTC)

Yes not yet, in the future I don't know yet, please protect my user page. Jhonblvk (talk) 18:52, 28 September 2023 (UTC)

@Jhonblvk: Pages are not pre-emptively protected and there's been no recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Hey man im josh (talk) 18:53, 28 September 2023 (UTC)

Okay brother Jhonblvk (talk) 18:57, 28 September 2023 (UTC)

Congrats on your successful RFA!

I must have missed it closing. Congratulations! QuicoleJR (talk) 20:09, 28 September 2023 (UTC)

Thank you! Hey man im josh (talk) 20:11, 28 September 2023 (UTC)

My belated congratulations as well. Glad to have had the chance to support. Best wishes. Donner60 (talk) 06:26, 29 September 2023 (UTC)

Hey boss

Hi @Hey man im josh, thank you for your good works here, please your attention is needed on article She Must Be Obeyed, please have a look and assist accordingly.

Congratulations on your admin right!!! Cheers man B.Korlah (talk) 14:07, 30 September 2023 (UTC)

Thank you! But it's not clear what you are asking for at She Must Be Obeyed. Hey man im josh (talk) 15:21, 2 October 2023 (UTC)

Question.

I got an email saying that you deleted my Wikipedia page on Prince Anahobe. It was set as a draft as I was still working on it. The email didn't give me a reason as to why it was deleted so could you tell me why? Camillz (talk) 15:42, 2 October 2023 (UTC)

Hey @Camillz: When you moved the article to draft space, you left behind a redirect (entirely normal, cannot be avoided unless you have WP:Page mover). Redirects from the main space to the draft space are deleted under the R2. Cross-namespace redirects criteria. So, in short, nothing you did was lost, but redirects from the main space to drafts should not exist and are routinely deleted. Hey man im josh (talk) 16:10, 2 October 2023 (UTC)

Oh I never noticed thank you! So is there anyway to get the draft back? Camillz (talk) 16:12, 2 October 2023 (UTC)

@Camillz: Nothing was lost, you just moved the draft to Draft:Prince Anahobe. Hey man im josh (talk) 16:13, 2 October 2023 (UTC)

Ok last response from me. Thank you I didn't know how to check. Have a good one Camillz (talk) 16:16, 2 October 2023 (UTC)

No problem, now you know :) Hey man im josh (talk) 16:17, 2 October 2023 (UTC)

Draft picks template

Hello, Mr. Admin. (Sorry, I had to do that). I changed a couple of team draft pick templates to a lower case "d" for draft, after seeing tons of templates and very few in caps. Then I did some detective work and saw that you created the 2022 Steelers Draft template, using caps for Draft. So I stopped editing right there, lol. Was there a rule put in place for this that I missed? To change them all to upper case now would take forever. Thanks in advance. John - Bringingthewood (talk) 03:54, 30 September 2023 (UTC)

Hey @Bringingthewood: I based those off past draft boxes which, if I understand correctly, just follow the capitalization of the draft articles (which do have Draft capitalized). My understanding is that "NFL Draft" is considered a proper name so the word "draft" is capitalized. Hey man im josh (talk) 15:30, 2 October 2023 (UTC)

I agree, 100%. But I'm not going there. Too many have lower case and it's something that should be saved for a project, lol. Hope your work here is going as smoothly as possible. As always, I appreciate the response. Bye for now, John Bringingthewood (talk) 22:05, 2 October 2023 (UTC)

My revert on your talk page

Hi Hey man im josh, sorry for this revert. Should I restore it? --WikiUser1234945-- (talk) 17:00, 3 October 2023 (UTC)

You're fine @--WikiUser1234945--. I'd have reverted myself with a ping to you if I was opposed to it. Hey man im josh (talk) 17:01, 3 October 2023 (UTC)

I was right. --WikiUser1234945-- (talk) 17:06, 3 October 2023 (UTC)

Congrats and Request for Advice

Congrats on becoming an admin! I just missed the closing but I saw you were overwhelmingly voted in. Anyways, I was wandering around this fine encyclopedia, when I saw the articles for review backlog elimination drive. I was curious on how this exactly works and how much encyclopedia knowledge I need to have. I have done some assessment of ITN articles but I'm not much of an article writer myself. Could I easily learn how to do this and continue on my Wikipedia journey or do I need to gain serious knowledge? ❤HistoryTheorist❤ 04:54, 30 September 2023 (UTC)

Hey @HistoryTheorist, I think you definitely could pick it up. I encourage most people to pick an area they're already familiar with at WP:NPPSORT and to go from there. With that said, I think your AfD contributions are lacking. Most permission granters will typically look for contributions at WP:AfD and at WP:AfC as an example of relevant experience. Hey man im josh (talk) 15:31, 2 October 2023 (UTC)

I guess I'll work on WP:AfD and do backlog elimination drive stuff later. If I need help, I'll ask you. ❤HistoryTheorist❤ 17:58, 3 October 2023 (UTC)

There will always be more work to be done at NPP @HistoryTheorist, that's simply the nature of things. We usually have about 2 backlog drives a year, so you will be able to participate in due time if you keep at it :) Hey man im josh (talk) 17:59, 3 October 2023 (UTC)

Invitation to Cornell study on Wikipedia discussions

Hello Hey man im josh,

I’m reaching out as part of a Cornell University academic study investigating the potential for user-facing tools to help improve discussion quality within Wikipedia discussion spaces (such as talk pages, noticeboards, etc.). We chose to reach out to you because you have been highly active on various discussion pages.

The study centers around a prototype tool, ConvoWizard, which is designed to warn Wikipedia editors when a discussion they are replying to is getting tense and at risk of derailing into personal attacks or incivility. More information about ConvoWizard and the study can be found at our research project page on meta-wiki.

If this sounds like it might be interesting to you, you can use this link to sign up and install ConvoWizard. Of course, if you are not interested, feel free to ignore this message.

If you have any questions or thoughts about the study, our team is happy to discuss! You may direct such comments to me or to my collaborator, Cristian_at_CornellNLP.

Thank you for your consideration.

-- Jonathan at CornellNLP (talk) 18:19, 3 October 2023 (UTC)

Hello @Jonathan at CornellNLP. Thank you for your interest in me, but my plate is a bit too full at the moment and I don't really have time to get involved in this. Hey man im josh (talk) 18:20, 3 October 2023 (UTC)

No worries at all, thanks for letting us know! For what it's worth, the signup form will remain open for at least a few more months, so if sometime in the near future you end up having more free time you are still welcome to join then. Jonathan at CornellNLP (talk) 18:27, 3 October 2023 (UTC)
