Redirecting advice[edit]

Hello man! I have seen that you review redirects so quickly and efficiently. I was wondering, do you use any script to do so? Thank you and have a nice day! ✠ SunDawn ✠ (contact) 12:27, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@SunDawn: I sure do! I use User:Sohom Datta/fastreview, which pairs well with a lack of rate limit now that I'm an admin. Paired with my significant experience reviewing redirects, I sometimes get into bursts of efficiency and productivity :P Hey man im josh (talk) 15:25, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you! Are there any other script/helpers regarding redirect that is good to be used? Thank you! ✠ SunDawn ✠ (contact) 15:43, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@SunDawn: The only other one I use is WP:CAPRICORN. It took a bit of getting used to, but once I did I loved it. Hey man im josh (talk) 15:46, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Can you tell me a bit about it? I think to place in reasoning for the redirect Twinkle also have similar function. ✠ SunDawn ✠ (contact) 15:48, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hey @SunDawn, I'm sorry, I hadn't realized I missed this message. Really I recommend you give it a shot because I don't think I'd do a good job of explaining it. I'm aware that redirect categories exist, and I would use ctrl+f to find the appropriate one in the list until I eventually got comfortable enough to remember where they were when I needed them. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:10, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
No worries! Thank you for your inputs! Have a brilliant day ahead! ✠ SunDawn ✠ (contact) 15:29, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Promotion of List of Tennessee Titans first-round draft picks[edit]

Congratulations, Hey man im josh! The list you nominated, List of Tennessee Titans first-round draft picks, has been promoted to featured status, recognizing it as one of the best lists on Wikipedia. The nomination discussion has been archived.
This is a rare accomplishment and you should be proud. If you would like, you may nominate it to appear on the Main page as Today's featured list. Keep up the great work! Cheers, PresN (talk) via FACBot (talk) 00:26, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Help with an article[edit]

Good afternoon, I wanted to reach out to see if it is possible for you to take a look at the edited article that I recently posted. I was told before to make sure to have reputable awards or nominations in order to qualify as a person worthy of being on Wikipedia, and the person I am writing about just got recently received an award from a very reputable company. Please let me know if you could please take a look at it? The draft is about a musician Nerijus Glezekas.

Thank you, Sincerely Petrichor2.0 Petrichor2.0 (talk) 18:21, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry, but I don't review drafts in the AfC queue upon request. Someone from the team will get to it at their earliest convenience. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:11, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

About User:14 novembre[edit]

Hello, I'm an admin and Check User on it.wiki. User:14 novembre is well known on it.wiki (original user Calicanto2023) not only for block escape and sock abusing, but also for repeated trolling (just in the last two days we blocked quite a few interventions as anonymous IP where he declared explicitly both his identity and his will to insist creating socks, abusing service pages such as it.wiki administrators' noticeboard and user assistance pages). He was blocked indefinitely on it.wiki mainly because he was used to perform massive minimal or questionable edits, promoting drafts randomly and things like that. Despite not being a write-only user, he was totally disregarding any advice and indication to correct his way of operations. No way. His typical reaction was "Oh, sorry, I got it" and then going on as before. We had to spend a lot of time and energies in reverting his edits and correcting his mistakes. Apparently, he's now using this sock on en.wiki replicating exactly this same kind of behaviour. Since I noticed you interacted with him recently, I thought it could be useful to you having some background information more about this user (apparently becoming a cross-wiki problem). Regards. Superspritz (talk) 14:07, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Superspritz: My limited interaction with them has been to decline their request for permissions (new page reviewer) at WP:PERM/NPR. I did find that someone had started a discussion on their talk page, at User_talk:14_novembre#Sock, in which I also participated a bit. While I understand they've been abusive on the Italian wiki, which is the reason why I declined their request, unless they've been globally blocked on any of their accounts, we have to treat them as a regular user. It seems as though they've been contributing relatively constructively on en.wiki (so far..?) and there's nothing we can really do at this point in time. Luckily there's a talk page discussion that any other admins will possibly find if they request further permissions, but until they break any rules or policies here there's much else to be done. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:15, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Hey man im josh @Superspritz What is a "write only" user? 14 novembre (talk) 🇮🇹 15:00, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Superspritz I add that my mistakes on it wiki were made mainly due to inexperience (but there were some constructive edits), and I started contributing here as it appeared that a history of constructive contributions here would have implied a possible unblock on it wiki. However I yesterday said, if, as it appears, there is no chance of getting unblocked, I will continue evading the block, as my main goal is Contributing constructively on it wiki. I want to explain that i recognize my mistakes, and that if I will ever be unblocked on it wiki I will avoid such contributions. However, I would like to know what you think in general, and if you think that there may be a way of gettting unblocked in a few months. Kind regards 14 novembre (talk) 🇮🇹 15:07, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Hey man im josh I would be very Happy to know what you think. Kind regards 14 novembre (talk) 🇮🇹 15:13, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think you shouldn't have block evaded to begin with. I also do not know what Superspritz meant by write-only user. Hey man im josh (talk) 16:11, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
A "write-only user" on it.wiki is a user who edits or modifies articles or drafts, but never replies to messages nor to warnings coming from other users, i.e. someone willingly refusing any discussion and ignoring completely any other user's advice or hint. It's one of the most annoying not-cooperative behaviours. In Calicanto2023/14 novembre case, he replied in the discussion but eventually systematically ignored anyway any indications given - this cannot be justified only by stating "I'm new". A new user with good will would have listened to advices coming from more expert users. He never did it. I understand that, as long as he's not causing damages to the project, it's fine. But this is just to let you know what you can expect (don't stop just at his words). --Superspritz (talk) 17:08, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Superspritz I have a question. If I contribute constructively for a few months here, may I me unblocked on it wiki. Or is there no chance? 14 novembre (talk) 🇮🇹 17:48, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Hey man im josh Could you answer the question? 14 novembre (talk) 🇮🇹 08:44, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Every wiki is separate from one another, it's not up to me and I can't make any decisions on their behalf. That's the reason you're not blocked here as well. Hey man im josh (talk) 10:52, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

IP editor repeatedly removing Notability template[edit]

Hi Josh, I see you added a notability template on 2024 Alaska Air Fuel Douglas C-54 crash‎. This has been repeatedly removed by an IP and reinstated by myself and another user. The IP keeps changing within 2605:8d80:404:fd9b:/32. I guess semi protection is needed here? Rosbif73 (talk) 15:20, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Rosbif73: It seems they've already been blocked for edit warring. Hey man im josh (talk) 15:21, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
So they have. Trouble is, they've now come back from an IPv4 address... Rosbif73 (talk) 15:25, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the page protection. Rosbif73 (talk) 15:29, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

HAL Tejas again[edit]

The IP editor you recently blocked is back, this time employing WP:SYNTH by using a source which refers to the Tejas Mk 1A variant as a 4.5 generation fighter to support the claim that the Tejas as a whole is such. - ZLEA T\C 16:14, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I take it back. After reading a bit closer, it does state that the Tejas as a whole is a 4.5 generation fighter. - ZLEA T\C 16:16, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Now, unblock that IP. @Hey man im josh. He accepted that it was his fault. 2402:8100:384E:5819:AC52:E91E:48D4:A649 (talk) 16:59, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The IP has resorted to personal attacks yet again. - ZLEA T\C 19:59, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hey @ZLEA. I'm glad to see that the edit has been suppressed and that the user has been blocked now. In the future, it's quickest to use WP:AIV to report these issues. Hey man im josh (talk) 13:26, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

WP:PMCRITERIA[edit]

This doesn't seem a great shortcut, given the existing shortcuts WP:PMRC/WP:PMVRC that also stand for "page mover criteria" (by way of WP:PMR/WP:PMVR being "page mover") but which go to a different section, Wikipedia:Page mover#Redirect suppression criteria. I'd suggest instead WP:PMGRANT like WP:TPEGRANT. SilverLocust 💬 21:59, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@SilverLocust: While I do believe PM is an acceptable acronym for page movers, you do raise a valid point about the default shortcuts for page mover not being WP:PM.
I agree that the shortcut at the target of WP:PMCRITERIA should be replaced, but I'm not quite sure with what. I'm somewhat opposed to using "grant" in the shortcuts because of Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Granting and revoking user rights. That page contains various administrator guides about the process and I'd argue WP:TPEGRANT should probably be retargeted to Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/Template editor/Administrator instructions.
I think PMCRITERIA to Wikipedia:Page_mover#Guidelines_for_granting makes sense, given the usage of similar shortcuts like WP:NPRCRITERIA, and I think the inclusion of the "R" for redirect in the shortcut to the redirect suppression criteria (WP:PMRC and WP:PMVRC) is enough to remember and differentiate between the two. Hey man im josh (talk) 13:40, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The R doesn't stand for redirect. The section was called "Page mover criteria" in 2016 when the original section shortcut, WP:PM/C, was created. A couple weeks after that, when WP:PMRC and WP:PMVRC were created to have shortcuts without a slash suggesting a subpage (and because WP:PMC was taken for something else, much like WP:PM), the section heading had been changed to "Redirect suppression criteria" but the section began, "The page mover criteria describes [sic] when redirects can be suppressed." (permalink).
WP:NPRCRITERIA and WP:NPPCRITERIA were created about six months ago. Other WP:[perm]CRITERIA shortcuts seem to be ones that you created this month. It's certainly not too late to use GRANT for those as well. It's not particularly unambiguous to use CRITERIA as a shortcut for "guidelines for granting" when there are other sections covering "criteria for revoking" and criteria for use (such as WP:ROLLBACKUSE).
The admin instructions are seldom linked, unlike each perm's general info page, and the admin instructions are in a floating link at the top of each PERM subpage. In what circumstance would you want to link to the admin instruction page via a shortcut, and why would that be a more common use for GRANT? (See how few links there are at Special:WhatLinksHere/Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/Template editor/Administrator instructions or even Special:WhatLinksHere/WP:PERM/AI.) SilverLocust 💬 17:36, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hey @SilverLocust: I just wanted to let you know that I'm not ignoring you, I just don't typically edit on the weekend and I've been quite busy today. I definitely will get back to you though so that this can get sorted out. Hey man im josh (talk) 19:08, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Undeletion Request[edit]

Hello, @Hey man im josh I'm a new user of Wikipedia and this was my first page ever. I was only making this page for a school assignment that needed to stay up for the rest of the day. Unfortunately, I didn't understand all of the rules of Wiki and you have deleted my page. I thought clicking publish would save my draft because I had no other way to save it. I would like to ask that you restore an earlier version of my page so I can fix it. After today, you can delete it but I just need it to stay up for the remainder of the day so my teacher can see it. I truly hope that you may grant my request. Thank you for your time. VivianDayReeseMallardEverettFlowers (talk) 17:58, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Railway stations scheduled to open in 2035[edit]

A tag has been placed on Category:Railway stations scheduled to open in 2035 indicating that it is currently empty, and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion. If it remains empty for seven days or more, it may be deleted under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and removing the speedy deletion tag. Liz Read! Talk! 16:53, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Josh,
If you want to look into this, it looks like the category was emptied by OrdinaryScarlett who turned the articles that filled this category into redirects with no categories. Maybe when it gets closer to 2035, these actions will be reverted if you don't want to do so yourself now. Hope you are having a good weekend. Liz Read! Talk! 16:57, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
No worries @Liz! This just sometimes happens since I create redcats that are in use, I'm not bothered :) Weekend was great and I hope yours was as well! Hey man im josh (talk) 11:44, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Possible sockpuppetry[edit]

Hello Hey man im josh, I'm just wondering if it would be possible for you to look into a current deletion discussion, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2024 Alaska Air Fuel Douglas C-54 crash, as it appears to me that a user, User:GeekyAviation, is using two accounts to vote for a keep consensus, 2605:8D80:402:704F:E038:5250:7DD4:7434

Both him and the IP have similar writing style:

1. Talk page: anyone with an autoconfirmed account can nominate an article for deletion but for a flight like this that is a huge aircraft; Douglas C-54D, including 2 deaths, i personally think is notable. There is plenty of coverage around the internet. GeekyAviation (talk) 02:32, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

2. Deletion discussion: * Keep - I mean its a cargo jet, of course it only has a few on board but this is a huge airplane, it is very uncommon and has made a lot of coverage around the internet WP:Notability. This is just my opinion that this should stay. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2605:8D80:402:704F:E038:5250:7DD4:7434 (talk) 18:42, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

3. Deletion discussion Keep - Like the IP said above, it is uncommon for a plane like a Douglas C-54 to crash. i understand there is only two fatalities but its also a cargo jet carrying lots of stuff. Its one of those crashes that many people may think isn't notable, but is. WP:GNG WP:Notability — Preceding unsigned comment added by GeekyAviation (talk • contribs) 01:07, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

This also was the IP address that was constantly removing the notability template on 2024 Alaska Air Fuel Douglas C-54 crash, and it appears to me that both of these accounts are tied. Both of them use the term cargo jet, both of them didn't sign their replies and their writing styles, overall, look similar.

Thank you and have a nice rest of your day. Aviationwikiflight (talk) 01:45, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

you are really an ignorant person, it shows. Firstly you are going around the whole aviation world of wikipedia and making unnecessary changes. I've been on wikipedia for a good amount of time and i have a good understanding what should stay and what should not. You are also an arrogant type of person on what edits i make like organizing the AFD you made. Speaking of AFD, you are abusing your power of autoconfirmed and making deletion articles all over. I agree on some, not all. Its also ironic how you make such a professional note to an admin knowing you are a sockpuppetry suspect aswell. GeekyAviation (talk) 02:02, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Mid week awarding at EotW[edit]

You may have noticed that I have begun to give out mid-week awards. This is to lessen the time that the nomination "sits in the Queue waiting". Not too long ago there were 17 nominations in the queue. When this happens the supportive numbers/figures become outdated. The next three nominations are yours from February. If I give one out on next Wednesday, by Sunday May 10, we will have moved into March nominations. Hope this works for you. Buster Seven Talk (UTC) 12:40, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Drafts, PRODs and stuff[edit]

Hello, Josh,

You might have noticed that we have a higher than average number of drafts expiring today. I did a little investigating and it's due to a big AFC backlog drive last November. So, we are likely to have more than our current average of ~150 expiring drafts/day but I can't imagine there will be any higher numbers than today's 400+ drafts until we get to the end of the month. But especially when our regular editors are off-line, the extra help is always appreciated and it looks like you were busy from early this morning (at least according to Pacific time!). I'm not sure if you are also at work or school but your help is very welcome when we get these days with a higher level of activity. Many thanks! Liz Read! Talk! 17:47, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey @Liz, I actually was involved in the backlog drive and, once I saw the deluge of drafts and the spacing of their timing, I quickly realized it had to do with that backlog drive. I'll definitely be around to help out with it and help to take a little bit of pressure off of you. More than happy to help and always appreciate you reaching out! Hey man im josh (talk) 17:49, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Scottish government[edit]

I don't know if there's any connection here, but just after you blocked the editor on the 2024 Scottish government crisis article a new account registered which has so far only edited the same thing. One of the edits here changed the article's lead section to a comment which has a very similar writing style to the previous editor's replies on talk. Might be nothing, but thought I'd make you aware. Thanks for your time today as well. Cheers—Tim O'Doherty (talk) 23:12, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Tim O'Doherty: I've protected the page for now. Definitely suspicious but I'm not an expert with sock puppets. May be worth a report at WP:SPI. Hey man im josh (talk) 23:18, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Shakespopi - 2024[edit]

Hello Josh! How are you doing? Pls I want to know why you placed Unreliable source tag on Shakespopi. Any article you feel is unreliable, you help edit; That's it.. Thank You. And this article have already been reviews before. ] 2RDD (talk) 17:48, 2 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@2RDD: Any article you feel is unreliable, you help edit; That's it.. – This may be your point of view, but this is not true, this is the reason that the tags exist, to call attention to the issue. Just because someone calls attention to an issue does not mean they are responsible for fixing said issue. As for being marked as reviewed, I'm the one who did so, and just because an marked has been marked as reviewed does not mean that sources used are as reliable as they should be. The unreliable sources used are to do with BellaNaija and Instagram, while Pulse is known to be mostly gossip or paid publications. It does not mean the article needs to be deleted, but it means the article could be supported with better references. Hey man im josh (talk) 18:06, 2 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

About the redirect page[edit]

Hi my friend, how are you? I noticed that you canceled my request to delete a redirect page known as «Wirt (Over the Garden Wall)», I want to delete it to create an article about the subject because it is popular and need an article about it, not a redirect page, so why you canceled my request? And thank you my friend🙂. علي العالم (talk) 13:41, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your request does not meet any of the possible speedy deletion rationales listed at WP:CSD. You are welcome to start a draft at WP:AFC and submit it for review or to start an article from the redirect. Hey man im josh (talk) 13:42, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
No my friend, it meets a reason, which is the 10th reason in «Wikipedia
Redirects for discussion». علي العالم (talk) 13:54, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Rationale listed at WP:RFD#DELETE, which are common reasons for deletion but are not codified policy, is not the same thing as WP:CSD, which refers to criteria for speedy deletions. The rationale you're referencing does not apply to speedy deletions. You would need to nominate the redirect for deletion at WP:RFD in order to try to use #10 of WP:RFD#DELETE. The best way is to start an article from the redirect or to start a draft at WP:AFC that can overwrite the redirect when the draft is completed. Hey man im josh (talk) 13:57, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That's typically why you would start an article at WP:AFC, or, to be more specific, Draft:Wirt (Over the Garden Wall). That way, when completed, the draft can be moved over the redirect. When a draft is completed, redirects qualify for G6 speedy deletion. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:03, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ahhh I understand you, so I need to create this draft, and after that delete the redirect page? And sorry for annoyed you🙂. علي العالم (talk) 14:06, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
No worries. Yes, if you create a draft first, that's when it makes the most sense for us to delete the redirect. Redirects are for useful search terms to topics that are relevant to that search term. In this case, it wouldn't be helpful for us to delete the redirect if we didn't have anything to replace it with, which is why it doesn't currently qualify for speedy deletion. If we have a draft ready to move there, then it does. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:08, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi friend! I wrote a draft about the subject, you can see it, is that good? And thank you friend. علي العالم (talk) 16:28, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

X3 deletions[edit]

FYI I've undone several of your X3 deletions because X3 requires that the redirect [not] contain substantive page history (e.g. from a merge), which you don't appear to have checked for. I also undeleted 365(number)36(movie), as it survived RfD and hence can't be speedy deleted. * Pppery * it has begun... 15:05, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the heads up @Pppery, I appreciate you taking care of this. I had hundreds of tabs open yesterday in the process and while I did try to check them I clearly made some mistakes. I'll have to move a bit slower or find a better way to go about it, possibly with a quarry query... hmm... anyways, that part is a me problem. Hey man im josh (talk) 15:07, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I have undeleted Humud Dakhil Humud Sa'id Al-((Jad'an (previously survived RfD) and Josh Taylor(Neighbours) (has prior article history) from your most recent batch deletion. * Pppery * it has begun... 16:38, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Damn it! I don't understand how I missed the RfD in the page history of the first redirect, since I'm checking the page history of every redirect with more than 1 revision... I see the mistake I made in the second one. I'm just going to take a break from X3s because I'm clearly going too fast and making avoidable mistakes.

Requesting project space undeletion of 2024 NACAC Championships[edit]

Hi @Hey man im josh, thanks for your help cleaning up the encyclopedia. I noticed you deleted 2024 NACAC Championships because it was created by User:GoOKC who was banned for copyright violations and socking.

I was wondering if you could undelete it and move it to WP:WikiProject Athletics/Drafts/2024 NACAC Championships. This way, once the event happens in June we can easily move it back to mainspace, and we don't have to duplicate the work. Last I checked, the article did not have any copyright violations.

Thank you, --Habst (talk) 16:01, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Habst: Done. Hey man im josh (talk) 17:08, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks[edit]

A cheeseburger for you![edit]

For that detailed analysis regarding the circumstances leading upto my block. It was indeed very helpful :) The Herald (Benison) (talk) 17:50, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delicious! I might actually barbeque some burgers up tonight now that I'm thinking about it... Thanks @The Herald. Hey man im josh (talk) 17:51, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

May Backlog Drive[edit]

Hello - I had attempted to participate in the May backlog drive and inadvertently created more work for admins with mis-application of WP:A7 tags. What do you recommend as best action to return to NPP to contribute to the effort? TRL (talk) 19:16, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Trlovejoy: I usually encourage people to start out at WP:NPPSORT and focus on the areas they're most comfortable with. Once familiar and comfortable with the process again, then branch out to other areas you want to take a shot at. As for proving yourself if you want to join NPP, the best course of action would be to participate at WP:AFC, WT:AFC, and by successfully and correctly adding CSD tags.

Beckham trade to Miami[edit]

You said on the page for Odell Beckham Jr. that I cannot edit the page until either the team or Beckham himself confirms the trade, and that I cannot edit it because the trade is just gossip. What if the League itself confirms the trade? FoxX 07 (talk) 20:02, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@FoxX 07: That'd be fine. The whole idea is to avoid any news source that says "reported", or, "agreed to terms", because these are unofficial and VERY often end up not panning out. We just want to make sure it comes from an official source, which is usually the player, the team, the player's agent, etc.. Keep in mind that there are often articles on NFL.com that include the word "reported", which, in essence, just makes it gossip. WP:SPORTSTRANS has a good deal of information on this. Hey man im josh (talk) 20:04, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Good point. Thanks for the response. FoxX 07 (talk) 20:05, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
