Requesting unprotection of Mount Carmel High School, (San Diego, California)edit[Mount Carmel High School (San_Diego, California)] has been protected indefinitely since November 2008 due to vandalism. That seems quite a heave handed step for a page that is vandalized maybe once ever 2 months (like most high school wiki pages are). In the mean time, constructive edits are also blocked. Since you were the admin who initiated the protection, can Mt. Carmel High School be unblocked so that even registered users can edit it? I need to make a constructive change (Bobby Lee did not go to Mt. Carmel, since according to http://www.signonsandiego.com/uniontrib/20040917/news_lz1c17bobby.html he went to rival Poway High School, and needs to be removed from alumni.) and am prevented from doing so by your block. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mbarrien (talk • contribs) 15:49, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

Slightly StoopideditI'm a fan of Slightly Stoopid and to be completely transparent, I'm an intern for Silverback Artist Mangement. I'm also a musician myself and understand how these pages and help one's careers. It seems that the content on the slightly stoopid pages is a bit lacking (as well as the other artists managed by Silverback) and I was hoping you might be able to help me improve the content for these artist. I mean, Silverback isn't even on the slightly stoopid article and we manage them, haha. Anything you can do to help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, and I hope this reaches you in good spirits! Kindest Regards, Will B.
Hi You protected this page back in January 2008 - please can you now unprotect it for a while? I'd like to add some tags and remove some non-notables. Thanks. 58.8.4.113 (talk) 16:51, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
I've proposed that this article and its talk page, which you semiprotected in December 2007 and June 2008 respectively, might be unprotected and watched with great vigilance to see if the problem has gone away. --TS 22:41, 4 September 2009 (UTC)
Same routine as before. I've started a review of the semiprotection of this article which was only semiprotected, apparently, because of the release of Jackass 2.5 in late 2007. See talk:Ehren McGhehey --TS 04:39, 9 September 2009 (UTC)
Delta ForceeditUntil you have a source stating that what Beckwith described as the training process, stop changing it. As an admin, I'd expect you to have a stronger grasp of WP:V. Also, don't blindly revert another good-faith editor without explanation; I would have hoped you also had a better understanding of our policy against edit-warring. Not to mention your inappropriate use of the rollback button. Parsecboy (talk) 11:14, 16 October 2009 (UTC)
RBHS Redirect PageeditHey Ocatecir, I just wanted to bring to your attention that the redirect page, RBHS, which is protected indefinitely by you, should also redirect to Rock Bridge High School, since both schools have oppressively long names, and the same initials.

Thank you. A tag has been placed on Sam Nazarian, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be unambiguous advertising that only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item G11, as well as the guidelines on spam. If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, Requesting unprotection of Rancho Bernardo High SchooleditSemi-protection of Rancho Bernardo High School was supposed to expire in March 2009, almost 2 1/2 years ago and almost 3 years since you protected it. In fact, looking at the edit history, I removed the protection template 6 months ago thinking it had fully expired. Keeping the page locked down this long for the small possibility of manageable vandalism is a bit much. Since you are the administrator who added the protection, I'd like to request unprotection of the page to allow anonymous users to edit it. 76.102.151.192 (talk) 00:34, 6 July 2011 (UTC) Unprotecting RBHS, convert to disambiguation pageeditThank you for unprotecting Rancho Bernardo High School. I would similarly like to request unprotection of the "RBHS" redirection page, so that it can be converted into a disambiguation page. You are the protecting admin for that page too. The disambiguation would be for Rock Bridge High School, as requested on your user talk page 1 1/2 years ago, a request that was never acted upon. Also note that the indefinite protection is also preventing disambiguation that would also apply to Red Bank High School, Riverside Brookfield High School, Ross Beatty Junior/Senior High School, Red Bluff High School, Roanoke-Benson High School and Red Bay High School, Rainier Beach High School (Seattle, Washington), Roger Bacon High School as well as possibly Redondo Beach Historical Society, and Rehoboth Beach Historical Society.

This message is intended to notify administrators of important changes to the protection policy. Extended confirmed protection (also known as "30/500 protection") is a new level of page protection that only allows edits from accounts at least 30 days old and with 500 edits. The automatically assigned "extended confirmed" user right was created for this purpose. The protection level was created following this community discussion with the primary intention of enforcing various arbitration remedies that prohibited editors under the "30 days/500 edits" threshold to edit certain topic areas. In July and August 2016, a request for comment established consensus for community use of the new protection level. Administrators are authorized to apply extended confirmed protection to combat any form of disruption (e.g. vandalism, sock puppetry, edit warring, etc.) on any topic, subject to the following conditions:
Please review the protection policy carefully before using this new level of protection on pages. Thank you. Two-Factor Authentication now available for adminseditHello, Please note that TOTP based two-factor authentication is now available for all administrators. In light of the recent compromised accounts, you are encouraged to add this additional layer of security to your account. It may be enabled on your preferences page in the "User profile" tab under the "Basic information" section. For basic instructions on how to enable two-factor authentication, please see the developing help page for additional information. Important: Be sure to record the two-factor authentication key and the single use keys. If you lose your two factor authentication and do not have the keys, it's possible that your account will not be recoverable. Furthermore, you are encouraged to utilize a unique password and two-factor authentication for the email account associated with your Wikimedia account. This measure will assist in safeguarding your account from malicious password resets. Comments, questions, and concerns may be directed to the thread on the administrators' noticeboard. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 20:33, 12 November 2016 (UTC) A new user right for New Page PatrollerseditHi Ocatecir. A new user group, New Page Reviewer, has been created in a move to greatly improve the standard of new page patrolling. The user right can be granted by any admin at PERM. It is highly recommended that admins look beyond the simple numerical threshold and satisfy themselves that the candidates have the required skills of communication and an advanced knowledge of notability and deletion. Admins are automatically included in this user right. It is anticipated that this user right will significantly reduce the work load of admins who patrol the performance of the patrollers. However,due to the complexity of the rollout, some rights may have been accorded that may later need to be withdrawn, so some help will still be needed to some extent when discovering wrongly applied deletion tags or inappropriate pages that escape the attention of less experienced reviewers, and above all, hasty and bitey tagging for maintenance. User warnings are available here but very often a friendly custom message works best. If you have any questions about this user right, don't hesitate to join us at WT:NPR.

This message was sent to all administrators following a recent motion. Thank you for your attention. For the Arbitration Committee, Cameron11598 02:32, 4 May 2019 (UTC) Administrator account security (Correction to Arbcom 2019 special circular)editArbCom would like to apologise and correct our previous mass message in light of the response from the community. Since November 2018, six administrator accounts have been compromised and temporarily desysopped. In an effort to help improve account security, our intention was to remind administrators of existing policies on account security — that they are required to "have strong passwords and follow appropriate personal security practices." We have updated our procedures to ensure that we enforce these policies more strictly in the future. The policies themselves have not changed. In particular, two-factor authentication remains an optional means of adding extra security to your account. The choice not to enable 2FA will not be considered when deciding to restore sysop privileges to administrator accounts that were compromised. We are sorry for the wording of our previous message, which did not accurately convey this, and deeply regret the tone in which it was delivered. For the Arbitration Committee, -Cameron11598 21:04, 4 May 2019 (UTC) Nomination for deletion of Template:WikiProject Jackassedit

Inactive administrators are encouraged to rejoin the project in earnest rather than to make token edits to avoid loss of administrative permissions. Resources and support for reengaging with the project are available at Wikipedia:WikiProject Editor Retention/administrators.

Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted after seven days unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article. If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced.

You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki. When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed. Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help. If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter. We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.
