SanAnMan, I wanted to let you know that I just nominated We Built This Glee Club to be included in the main page's "Did You Know" section. As nominator, I'm responsible for supplying the quid pro quo review (because I have more than five nominations under my belt); I did include myself as a "creator" in addition to you because of my work on the Plot and Production sections and the general copyediting—the way DYK works, anyone who has made significant contributions to the article before its nomination is included as a "creator" even if they didn't make the first edits.

If you have any other ideas for a "hook", please feel free to suggest them. The rules require that the hook must be shorter than 200 characters (including spaces) and all the facts in it must be cited inline, no later than the end of the sentence in which the fact appears. I'll be happy to answer any questions you may have. At some point, an independent reviewer will review the nomination, which will either result in approval or in a request to modify the article and/or hook so it meets all the relevant DYK criteria. I've had a lot of experience in the DYK space, so I don't anticipate any significant issues beyond those I've already noted in the nomination header.

Mistaken block

edit

Hello SanAnMan. While conducting a sockpuppetry investigation, I made the mistake of clicking the block button on your account instead of the intended target. I unblocked your account as soon as I realized my mistake, but unfortunately, there isn't anything I can do except explaining my mistake in the unblock message. This isn't a mistake I'm prone to making, and I am terribly sorry for spoiling your previously clean block log! Embarrassedly ​—DoRD (talk)​ 13:23, 24 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

DoRD, fair enough, just don't let it happen again or I'll give you 39 lashes with a wet noodle!!  :)
Seriously though, mistakes happen, no big deal, I appreciate the notice and quick resolve. -- SanAnMan (talk) 19:33, 24 April 2015 (UTC)Reply
Thank you for your understanding! ​—DoRD (talk)​ 19:37, 24 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

Rollback granted

edit
 

Hi SanAnMan. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

  • Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
  • Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
  • Rollback should never be used to edit war.
  • If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
  • Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Widr (talk) 21:21, 28 November 2016 (UTC)Reply

Hello. Your account has been granted the "pending changes reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on pages protected by pending changes. The list of articles awaiting review is located at Special:PendingChanges, while the list of articles that have pending changes protection turned on is located at Special:StablePages.

Being granted reviewer rights neither grants you status nor changes how you can edit articles. If you do not want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time.

Your request at WP:AIV

edit

About Special:Contributions/36.68.4.0/16. Can you be more specific about the vandalism? A /16 is very wide, and I think a /22 might be sufficient, but would like more examples of what you consider to be bad edits. Thanks, EdJohnston (talk) 15:01, 29 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

@EdJohnston: If you think a /22 is sufficient enough, that works too. This is just ongoing years of blanking edits, making changes without summaries/explanations, reversions, multiple warns that have been given to the various IP's time and time again. Unfortunately, you'll have to look at each IP to see the warns issued, But it seems almost 80-90% of the edits done by this range have been reverted for one reason or another. - SanAnMan (talk) 15:17, 29 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
OK, I have blocked Special:Contributions/36.68.4.0/22 for one month. Let me know if you notice a continuing problem. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 15:47, 29 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

Can't prevent cross-wiki uploads to Commons

edit

Hi SanAnMan, I've just tested this by blocking User:ToBeFree_(mobile) from contributing to the English Wikipedia's File namespace, and the account was sadly still able to upload files through our VisualEditor.[1]

I have warned MitchellP95 on their Commons talk page now ([2]); if they continue, please report them to commons:COM:ANB. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 14:40, 25 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the help!

edit

I would like to thank you for helping me out regarding the multiple IPs that were being used to vandalize the tour articles with the insistence of having United Kingdom instead of England, Wales, Scotland, etc. I am posting on your talk page to let you know that there is a discussion going on at the moment regarding this issue here at WikiProject Concerts. If you would like to share your opinion in the discussion, you are more than welcome to. :) HorrorLover555 (talk) 22:27, 21 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned non-free image File:Shark Tank Logo.jpg

edit
 

Thanks for uploading File:Shark Tank Logo.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:43, 22 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

About the latest revert…

edit

In this article for the late Cory Monteith, the last row in his television filmography says that his last appearance was in MasterChef. DecaTilde 22:51, 2 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

@DecaTilde 1) You can't use a Wikipedia article as a source to another Wikipedia article; however, more importantly, 2) whether or not it was his last television appearance is irrelevant to the MasterChef article itself. The addition of the content detracts from the focus of the article which is about the show, not about Monteith. Monteith's article is focused on him as it should be. - SanAnMan (talk) 16:32, 3 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
