Harassment or not...?

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further changes should be made to this discussion.

Hello, I'm just wondering if comments made on my talk page at "Do not add any unresonable comment to my talk page again" can be considered as a PA since they were making fun of my enwiki block and mistakes I have made in the past. I'm not offended but I'm not sure if it's allowed or not. Cheers, Hockeycatcat (talk) 15:36, 21 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like he's probably mad at you. DingoTalk 15:47, 21 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I do see issues with writing that message on. Probably personal attack. SHB2000 (talk) 22:33, 21 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It was about 2:00am for me when I was editing because I was bored. It is clearly a PA and I don't know why I created this thread. This is as close to "sleep-editing" as you can get! Hockeycatcat (talk) 09:29, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I see I'm not the only one editing up at night ;-) Was up til 00:30 on Commons yesterday. SHB2000 (talk) 11:37, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Third... I edit 13 hours a day... at night too... 💠Ely - Talk💠 11:38, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
13? Dang, but that's a lot. The max I've done one day was 6 although that wasn't on this wiki (with 20% of that 6 hours reverting GRP ;)). SHB2000 (talk) 11:42, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I'm at it again, its 00:47 for me right now, and I am fully aware of what I am doing! Hockeycatcat (talk) 14:47, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
For once, I unusually wasn't editing past 00:00 yesterday :-) SHB2000 (talk) 03:39, 24 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Wow I looked at your talk page and it looks like you are getting a lot of harassment. I hope you are okay. I see you on the RfDs a bit. You seem pleasant to me. Blissyu2 (talk) 12:45, 27 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Although the amount of vandalism that global sysops get is much worse though. If any kind of vandalism is hard to revert, it's hiding vandalism on flow talk pages like this on my fr.voy talk page SHB2000 (talk) 13:01, 27 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Elytrian and SHB2000: What? 13! Then, we need to create a new type of barnstar called "The Nocturnal Barnstar". If that's done so, then there will be many editors here, who really deserve it. :) :-) Haoreima (talk) 05:14, 28 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I am just gonna close this discussion since the case is resolved. The discussion about barnstar and "Nunquam Dormio" can be done in WP:ST. Thanks-BRP ever 05:24, 28 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Revdel

Hello, sorry to be a pain, but could somebody please revdel [1] this? Thanks, Hockeycatcat (talk) 09:44, 24 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

BTW I think you should probably use e-mail or Direct Messages through Discord for revdel'ing. Etoza (?) 16:34, 24 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Done. This was just generally disruptive material, so I think the request was fine to be posted here. However, for items that are sensitive or would require oversight, correct, you should not ever post a request on-wiki.--Gordonrox24 | Talk 00:21, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Temp protection

Can Deaths in 2021 be temporarily protected? IPs have been falsely adding living people to the list. Etoza (?) 16:32, 24 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not going to protect at this time. The level of vandalism isn't out of control at the moment. Thanks. --Gordonrox24 | Talk 00:24, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

RPP

Temporary semi-protection: Content Dispute/Edit Warring. Hockeycatcat (talk) 15:31, 25 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Set to autoconfirmed, for two weeks...--Eptalon (talk) 16:27, 25 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

PP for my talk page

What the title said... way too much vandalism, and no constructive IP's have contacted me. 💠Ely - Talk💠 14:16, 27 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Wow. I'm sorry to see that you too are getting nasty talk page messages. I am not thankfully. 58.179.159.63 (talk) 03:58, 28 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
mine too. I'm not a very active user here and no constructive anon messages for me as well. Either just vandalism by numerous LTAs, or Samlaptop. SHB2000 (talk) 13:37, 28 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
We could possibly do a short one if it was bad on a given day, but generally talk pages aren't protected permanently. -Djsasso (talk) 14:23, 28 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
There are some cases where talk pages are indef protected, although it's very rare, and I've never seen it on simplewiki. (good examples are Antandrus' and my enwiki talk pages) SHB2000 (talk) 13:34, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Block needed

User continuing to try and follow me around everywhere/harrass me- 205.213.208.101 and Mjforresst. See Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Zjholder/Archive for more info. User also previously here under account Zoom29912. Magitroopa (talk) 23:43, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Protection on my talk page would also be greatly appreciated to end this. Magitroopa (talk) 23:56, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Account has been blocked. I can come back around and get the IP as well if anything else picks up from there, but it looks like they've stopped for the time being. We usually don't protect talk page, however if it gets really worse we can do a short term protection as needed.--Gordonrox24 | Talk 00:06, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

User of concern

I don't want to outright say this, but the user 13switch is blocked on enwiki as being a sock of the Android LTA. Technically, they're also blocked here as well for impersonating Darubrub (now renamed), they've actually been doing a lot of anti-vandal work here. Just notifying all admins here. SHB2000 (talk) 12:49, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Protection for Template:QD-notice

Can someone please protect or semi-protect Template:QD-notice? It's used often by Twinkle and causes problems when vandalized. J991 18:37, 2 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Already protected, thanks for requesting. --Ferien (talk) 18:38, 2 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Can't I create a page recently deleted by Rfd

Hello, i am @October2022 (talk) 19:21, 2 October 2021 (UTC). I created Dc Themmie recently on the wikipedia. It was recently deleted by admins when other users created it because it was not notable. But me I have reliable sources which I found. But when I created it today an admin deleted it, why if an article is deleted before, can't it be recreated with the same content or similar with different reference. I don't really like what admins do to stub article, wikipedia is a free encyclopedia for everyone and have already decleared Dc Themmie as conflict of interest on my userpage. But now it was protected for only admin to create. It is not fair. CheersOctober2022 (talk) 19:21, 2 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

So what reliable sources did you find? Etoza (?) 19:39, 2 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The article you created didn't have anything that wasn't in the previous versions of the page, so it was similar to them. The new article said only that the person is Nigerian and that he is a singer, comedian, and blogger; none of those things makes a person notable. If you don't say why a person is notable, it doesn't matter what sources you have. Reliable sources are needed, but they have to be used to support statements that show notability. -- Auntof6 (talk) 20:04, 2 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I feel that October2022 is Gimmelover evading their global lock. SHB2000 (talk) 23:25, 2 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@SHB2000: Then you might want to request checkuser services. It doesn't do any good to say here that you have a feeling about something. Auntof6 (talk) 23:38, 2 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
per WP:DUCK, this is an obvious case. SHB2000 (talk) 23:38, 2 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@SHB2000: Still not helpful to say you have a feeling without asking to have something done about it. Auntof6 (talk) 23:43, 2 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

104.243.168.40

Seems creating X is Y in Z pages. Seems like GYH evading block? Or am I assuming bad faith? Camouflaged Mirage (talk) 12:48, 3 October 2021 (UTC) + 104.243.168.230 Camouflaged Mirage (talk) 12:56, 3 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
