Thanks Diana, I didn’t intend to violate copyright. I usually copy and paste sources then rewrite around them and delete. Can you give me a chance to review it and make sure I've done this sufficiently? 82.15.208.160 (talk) 16:15, 13 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
There's time to do a rewrite. You have a minimum of one week to do so. Please do the rewrite by creating a temporary page as described above. — Diannaa (talk) 16:37, 13 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
The idea of the temp page is to prepare the content for publication, and the result will be pasted into in mainspace, so please add your citations and any images. You can check the prose using Earwig's tool to make sure that all prose that needs amending has been dealt with. Please let me know when you think it's ready for publication and I will have a look. — Diannaa (talk) 17:36, 13 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
Thank you, I have done this now and I hope it is acceptable. I'm really sorry and very embarrassed about this. I would not have intentionally violated Mary's copyright. Gillaween (talk) 17:52, 13 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

Women in Red 8th Anniversary

edit
  Women in Red 8th Anniversary
In July 2015 around 15.5% of the English Wikipedia's biographies were about women. As of July 2023, 19.61% of the English Wikipedia's biographies are about women. That's a lot of biographies created in the effort to close the gender gap. Happy 8th Anniversary! Join us for some virtual cake and add comments or memories and please keep on editing to close the gap!

In September, I'll be leading an in-person course in Perth, Scotland called Perth Women on Wikipedia, in partnership with Perth and Kinross libraries and Wikimedia UK. Over six Saturday mornings, you can learn about some amazing Perth Women, how to research them using the library's archives, collections and e-resources, and how to edit Wikipedia to improve and create articles for some Wiki Women in Red. https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/perth-women-on-wikipedia-tickets-669207286007

Event coordinator granted

edit
 

After reviewing your request for the "eventcoordinator" permission, I have temporarily enabled the flag on your account until 2023-10-09. Keep in mind these things:

  • The event coordinator right removes the limit on the maximum number of new accounts that can be created in a 24-hour period.
  • The event coordinator right allows you to temporarily add the "confirmed" permission to newly created accounts. You should not grant this for more than 10 days.
  • The event coordinator right is not a status symbol. If it remains unused, it is likely to be removed. Abuse of the event coordinator right will result in its removal by an administrator.
  • Please note, if you were previously a member of the "account creator" group, your flag may have been converted to this new group.

If you no longer require the right, let me know, or ask any other administrator. Drop a note on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of the event coordinator right. Happy editing! stwalkerster (talk) 19:11, 28 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hi there, this is the first day of the event and we have had our IP blocked for vandalism by Materialscientist. Is there a way this can be unblocked please?

Unblock request for an IP address

edit
 
This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Gillaween (block logactive blocksglobal blockscontribsdeleted contribsfilter logcreation logchange block settingsunblockcheckuser (log))


Request reason:

Your reason here I was running a Wikipedia editing event with new users at a public library when we received an IP block for vandalisms. Some eager newbies created accounts during a break rather than wait for me to do it through the event dashboard. This is an urgent request as it is a weekly course and I will need to be able to create users and edit every Saturday for the next six weeks. The address is IP: 10.21.24.148 Gillaween (talk) 13:56, 4 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

That's a reserved IP address used for local communications within a private network, not an IP address that can be reached over the internet. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 15:04, 4 September 2023 (UTC)Reply


If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

I don't see a block on the IP you mention. What message appears when you attempt to edit? 331dot (talk) 14:41, 4 September 2023 (UTC) Thanks NinjaRobotPirate and 331dot I returned to the library today to get a screenshot of the block and ensure I had the right IP address.Reply

File:Screenshot of IT block.png
screenshot of IP block

The IP block is still in place but I had provided an incorrect address. It's 193.63.61.100. Sorry for the confusion and thanks for your help in resolving this NinjaRobotPirate Gillaween (talk) 12:24, 5 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

Gillaween, I unblocked the IP address in response to UTRS appeal #78825, but then I noticed that it was an anon-only block, so it should not have prevented edits from the accounts you created. Did you perhaps get an autoblock? JBW (talk) 10:01, 20 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
Thanks @JBW I'm pretty sure I was signed in as I went through the event dashboard. I'll go to the library tomorrow and see if everything is working smoothly with the IP block removed. Fingers crossed! Gillaween (talk) 16:19, 20 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
I have no experience of using the events dashboard, so I don't know how, if at all, using it relates to logging into your account. If you find tomorrow that all is well, then obviously that will be fine, but if not then feel welcome to contact me again to see if I can help. As I told you by email, at present there's nothing more that I can think of to do which might help you, but I'm willing to search around and look for answers if necessary. JBW (talk) 19:02, 20 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
Just to let you know that I am in the library, logged in to the guest wifi, and I am able to edit with no issues, both using the event dashboard and not. I'm hopeful that a bunch of new editors on Saturday won't trigger anything and may be in contact with you then if it does! Many thanks for your help @JBW Gillaween (talk) 12:35, 21 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
Great! Best of luck on Saturday. JBW (talk) 13:40, 21 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
Thanks @JBW all went well today. Some very excited new editors making their first edits! Gillaween (talk) 16:32, 23 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
