Revision as of 02:58, 11 July 2011
Welcome – post issues of interest to administrators. |
---|
When you start a discussion about an editor, you must leave a notice on their talk page. Pinging is not enough. Sections inactive for over three days are archived by Lowercase sigmabot III.(archives, search) |
Would an admin (or admins) close and summarize the proposals at the following discussions:
Wikipedia talk:Notability (video games)#Proposal 2- Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style (icons)#RFC on the use of flagicons in infoboxes
- Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style (icons)#RFC on the use of flagicons in lists
- Wikipedia talk:Non-free content#RfC: Did recent currency image deletions go beyond the proper aims and objectives of the NFC image policy? (which was archived but then restored to the main Wikipedia talk:Non-free content page in wait for a proper closure)
Wikipedia:Village pump (proposals)#Page mover
The first four discussions have recently been archived from Template:Centralized discussion. Thanks, Cunard (talk) 22:49, 21 June 2011 (UTC)
Discussions 1, 2, and 5 should be relatively straightforward closes, while discussions 3 and 4 will be much more challenging. Cunard (talk) 23:00, 21 June 2011 (UTC)
- We don't need an admin to close rfcs. The discussion on mosicon is over I and believe we have consensus.Curb Chain (talk) 23:04, 23 June 2011 (UTC)
Future timestamp to prevent archiving. Cunard (talk) 23:59, 30 July 2011 (UTC)
- Pst to admins looking for an easy close – #2 has no opposes. I can't close it as I write ship articles. Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 08:29, 30 June 2011 (UTC)
- Thank you, Ed, for closing Wikipedia talk:Notability (video games)#Proposal 2 and Wikipedia:Village pump (proposals)#Page mover. The other discussions remain open. Cunard (talk) 20:03, 30 June 2011 (UTC)
Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Non-free content enforcement, Wikipedia talk:Non-free content, and Wikipedia:Village pump (proposals)/suspend sysop rights of inactive admins
Would an admin (or admins) close:
- Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Non-free content enforcement
- Wikipedia talk:Non-free content#Must images of historical importance be "subjects of commentary" before we can claim fair use?
Wikipedia:Village pump (proposals)/suspend sysop rights of inactive admins
For the second RfC, the creator wrote:
I want to add here that I'd like the RfC to remain open for 30 days and be closed by an uninvolved admin, not one involved in previous discussions about fair-use images please. I'm requesting this because this issue is affecting several content contributors, and it's likely to continue being contentious unless it's sorted out by clear consensus. Many thanks, SlimVirgin TALK|CONTRIBS 02:47, 30 May 2011 (UTC)

Moving Circuit de la Sarthe to Circuit des 24 Heures
Not an administrator noticeboard issue. Obtain consensus on the talk page and request a move in the usual way. |
---|
The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it. |
The promotor, the french department of sports and the ASN use the name Circuit des 24 Heures, more Wikipedia:Verifiability is not possible. As discussed at Talk:Circuit_de_la_Sarthe#Name_of_the_track, please move Circuit de la Sarthe to Circuit des 24 Heures. Thanks and Regards, --Pitlane02 talk 15:06, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

Physics Nobel Prize templates
Done --After Midnight 0001 23:21, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
Please move the set of templates in Category:Nobel Prize in Physics templates from Template:Nobel Prize in Physics 1901–1925 to Template:Nobel Prize in Physics Laureates 1901–1925 to be consistent with Category:Nobel Prize in Literature templates, Category:Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine templates and Category:Nobel Prize in Physics templates.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 12:28, 6 July 2011 (UTC)
- I realized only two of them need to be moved by an admin. I moved the rest.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 12:34, 6 July 2011 (UTC)
- Maybe my instructions above were complicated. Please move Template:Nobel Prize in Physics 1901–1925 and Template:Nobel Prize in Physics 2001–2025 over the redirects at Template:Nobel Prize in Physics Laureates 1901–1925 and Template:Nobel Prize in Physics Laureates 2001–2025.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 14:31, 7 July 2011 (UTC)
This is a pretty simple and non-controversial move. Where is everybody?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 23:03, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
Spectator, Nick Cohen & Wikipedia
[1] - Kittybrewster ☎ 22:52, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
- A topic ban of David r from meth productions (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) is unquestionably in order; this is not the first journalist biography where his POV editing has led to issues, see Richard Littlejohn (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views). Guy (Help!) 18:12, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
- In all seriousness, Hari is overused as a source on Wikipedia... Sceptre (talk) 18:14, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
- Probably, yes. I like his writing but there is usually a strong feel of opinion about it. I suspect that being gay, Jewish and subject to attack from militant Zionists for daring to criticise Israel's actions in the Occupied Territories has contributed to a lack of critical appraisal form people who would normally be more circumspect.

Revdel link
MER-C (talk · contribs) posted a link this morning to an edit page on strategywiki, inviting people to... misbehave. It'd be great if someone could revdel that edit. Thanks.
— V = IR (Talk • Contribs) 12:00, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
- I'm really not seeing how that falls under the revdelete policy. Brandon (talk) 12:04, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
- The purpose of the link is to demonstrate that editing of others' comments is possible. The link is not substantially different than, say, the edit links on this page. That said, I understand Ohm's law's point and have revised my comment. MER-C 14:00, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
Move request
Requested move
Please assist Template:Editnotices/Page/List of people affected by bipolar disorder needs to be moved to Template:Editnotices/Page/List of people with bipolar disorder per a page move. Thanks. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 23:27, 10 July 2011 (UTC)

Admins should have mandatory social skills lessons and only let people who have had sex without paying for it to be an admin.
