Your signature
[edit]Could you fix your signature? Your talk page link has random box characters in them (which display "01D 122"). On another computer, it just comes as boxes. TheTechie@enwiki (she/they | talk) 04:35, 30 November 2024 (UTC)
- I would've uploaded an image but Commons kept saying that my file name was too generic (yeah right). TheTechie@enwiki (she/they | talk) 04:42, 30 November 2024 (UTC)
- Interesting that nobody has complained in the many years I've used those four unicode characters. Hey lurkers (do I have any lurkers? hello?), are my musical characters legible? --jpgordon𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇 05:02, 30 November 2024 (UTC)

Guideline and policy news
- Following an RFC, the policy on restoration of adminship has been updated. All former administrators may now only regain the tools following a request at the Wikipedia:Bureaucrats' noticeboard within 5 years of their most recent admin action. Previously this applied only to administrators deysopped for inactivity.
- Following a request for comment, a new speedy deletion criterion, T5, has been enacted. This applies to template subpages that are no longer used.
Technical news
- Technical volunteers can now register for the 2025 Wikimedia Hackathon, which will take place in Istanbul, Turkey. Application for travel and accommodation scholarships is open from November 12 to December 10, 2024.
Arbitration
- The arbitration case Yasuke (formerly titled Backlash to diversity and inclusion) has been closed.
- An arbitration case titled Palestine-Israel articles 5 has been opened. Evidence submissions in this case will close on 14 December.
Galopindeschamps
[edit]You recently blocked sockpuppets of Budisgood. Now there is another brand new editor user:Galopindeschamps working on the same articles as Budisgood. I am hesitant about another sockpuppet investigation. What do you think? The Banner talk 19:02, 29 December 2024 (UTC)
- Oh hell yes. CU-blocked. --jpgordon𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇 19:18, 29 December 2024 (UTC)
- I reverted some of 'em, could you get the rest? (Gotta run.) --jpgordon𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇 19:22, 29 December 2024 (UTC)
- Okay, I will take care of it. The Banner talk 19:25, 29 December 2024 (UTC)

What do you think of user:Jetelasseraidesmots. To me it screams the same level of incompetence as Budisgood. See here. The Banner talk 20:39, 3 January 2025 (UTC)
- Yup, and another range CU-blocked. --jpgordon𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇 21:27, 3 January 2025 (UTC)
Administrators' newsletter – January 2025
[edit]News and updates for administrators from the past month (December 2024).
Administrator changes
CheckUser changes
Guideline and policy news
- Following an RFC, Wikipedia:Notability (species) was adopted as a subject-specific notability guideline.
- A request for comment is open to discuss whether admins should be advised to warn users rather than issue no-warning blocks to those who have posted promotional content outside of article space.
Technical news
- The Nuke feature also now provides links to the userpage of the user whose pages were deleted, and to the pages which were not selected for deletion, after page deletions are queued. This enables easier follow-up admin-actions.
Arbitration
- Following the 2024 Arbitration Committee elections, the following editors have been elected to the Arbitration Committee: CaptainEek, Daniel, Elli, KrakatoaKatie, Liz, Primefac, ScottishFinnishRadish, Theleekycauldron, Worm That Turned.
Miscellaneous
- A New Pages Patrol backlog drive is happening in January 2025 to reduce the number of unreviewed articles and redirects in the new pages feed. Sign up here to participate!
User
[edit]@User:jpgordon Hi JPgordon, you recently unblocked this user User talk:Koshuri Sultan and they claimed they had improved.. [2] Well they dropped this on the talk page [3] [4] over a dispute claiming me and another editor are disruptively editing...while they themself didn't actually read the discussion to see what the dispute was about. I'm not sure what would be done here, but giving you a headsup. Noorullah (talk) 18:48, 6 January 2025 (UTC)
- Thanks for the heads up. --jpgordon𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇 18:56, 6 January 2025 (UTC)
- Ridiculous, I just pointed out how @Noorullah21 had been quoting an incomplete snippet and then misinterpreted the source, @Jpgordon they are not presenting the full picture here, please do not judge my behaviour by this. Koshuri Sultan (talk) 04:32, 7 January 2025 (UTC)
- I'm not. All I'm concerned about in your case has to do with what you were previously blocked for, not your editing disagreements. So I don't need this discussion here. --jpgordon𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇 06:14, 7 January 2025 (UTC)
- Understood, the discussion has been resolved now. Koshuri Sultan (talk) 07:32, 7 January 2025 (UTC)
