Administrators' newsletter – December 2023
News and updates for administrators from the past month (November 2023).
- Following a talk page discussion, the Administrators' accountability policy has been updated to note that while it is considered best practice for administrators to have notifications (pings) enabled, this is not mandatory. Administrators who do not use notifications are now strongly encouraged to indicate this on their user page.
- Following a motion, the Extended Confirmed Restriction has been amended, removing the allowance for non-extended-confirmed editors to post constructive comments on the "Talk:" namespace. Now, non-extended-confirmed editors may use the "Talk:" namespace solely to make edit requests related to articles within the topic area, provided that their actions are not disruptive.
- The Arbitration Committee has announced a call for Checkusers and Oversighters, stating that it will currently be accepting applications for CheckUser and/or Oversight permissions at any point in the year.
- Eligible users are invited to vote on candidates for the Arbitration Committee until 23:59 December 11, 2023 (UTC). Candidate statements can be seen here.

Disambiguation link notification for September 23
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Abdul Ahad Azad, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Linguistic nationalism. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, --DPL bot (talk) 19:55, 23 September 2024 (UTC)

On the subject of Combat Sickle.
Hi. I've noticed my draft for the article on Combat Sickle was rejected on the grounds it did not have reliable sources.
The article was originally created on Polish Wikipedia by user Tomuś Czereśniak, and he was providing the contents of the article I was translating. I asked him to provide the sources for his claims, and hopefully he'll get back to me.
Meanwhile I'll be hunting for my own sources, that should be sufficient for the article to be accepted, even if the original author of the article does not get back to me.
My intention is to travel to the Archeological Museum in Gdańsk, where the photo of the weapon was taken, and ask people working there for sources. Hopefully they will be able to provide me with something.
Sit tight, I intend to get it up to standards of the English Wiki, I just need some time. Fongsturion (talk) 12:31, 29 September 2024 (UTC)
- Fongsturion, thanks for leaving a note here. The draft was short and was not was not backed by any sources to establish notability, hence I declined the submission.
You are free to improve the draft and submit it again for the review. --Ratekreel (talk) 13:44, 29 September 2024 (UTC)

Last DYK prep set
Hi Ratekreel, I've noticed you promoting a couple of hooks recently; welcome to the team! Just one thing to note at the moment: per WP:DYKBOTTOMPREP we try to leave four slots empty in the last available prep set, including both the first and last slots. Otherwise, you're doing great. Best wishes, ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 22:21, 2 October 2024 (UTC)
- Ah, right. I've come here to point out the same thing, but AirshipJungleman29 has beaten me to it. I might as well give you the backstory as to why that is.
- Sometimes, we have to shuffle hooks around between queue and prep sets. So that shuffling is possible, the last set needs to have a few empty slots, including the first slot (so that one can move lead hooks around), the last slot (for quirky hooks), and a couple of others (for other hooks). Sometimes, an admin just needs the code for empty slots, and again, you just help yourself from the last prep set. Sometimes, any of this has to be done in a real hurry, and that was the case for me today. There was a report at WP:ERRORS about a lead hook and I started dealing with it some 15 minutes before it was to move to the main page. Obviously, we want to avoid having errors on the main page, hence that hook needed to go (I simply deleted it from the queue), but then I needed the code for the lead hook for the prep where I copied the replacement from. You can only get the code when that last set has the relevant slot empty. Hence, I reverted your promotion as that was the quickest way for me to get this done.
- TL:DR, sorry for the revert, and I'm sure now that it's happened to you, you'll follow AirshipJungleman29's advice. Schwede66 08:38, 3 October 2024 (UTC)
- AirshipJungleman29 and Schwede66, I'm really sorry for negligence on my behalf. I was unaware of WP:ERRORS. I thought the nomination was good to go to prep stage. Anyway, thanks for your follow up and detailed explanation. I'll keep this is mind and will read the instructions again. --Ratekreel (talk) 08:57, 3 October 2024 (UTC)

DYK for Abdul Ahad Azad
On 16 October 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Abdul Ahad Azad, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Abdul Ahad Azad is recognised for laying the foundations of literary criticism in Kashmiri literature? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Abdul Ahad Azad. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Abdul Ahad Azad), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
Speedy deletion declined: Noah Kudic
Hello Ratekreel, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Noah Kudic, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Drafts are not articles. A10 does not apply. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 13:23, 17 October 2024 (UTC)
- Hi Whpq, thanks for leaving the note. The article was originally created by FCSweden123 and was then moved to draftspace by Geschichte. However, the article was created again with the same content as the draft. I was unsure how to deal with this (I am still). I thought of redirecting article to draft and then requesting R2 deletion. However, A10 looked more suitable because I didn't know the correct procedure or convention. --Ratekreel (talk) 13:35, 17 October 2024 (UTC)
- It`s clear the article author objects to draftificaition. In such a case, you should not move it back to draft, or redirect it and request R2. Instead, if the article is not suitable for main space, you can take it to WP:AFD. -- Whpq (talk) 13:42, 17 October 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for pointing out. Will keep this in mind. --Ratekreel (talk) 14:19, 17 October 2024 (UTC)
