The Admin's Barnstar
Hi ZW, thanks for being an awesome admin here - helping with anti-vandalism works on this wiki, fighting those vandals, helping with the deletion processes etc. For all these, I think youvreally deserve this Admin's Barnstar. 😉 Keep up the great work! 👍👍👍 (✉→Arctic Kangaroo←✎) 01:48, 1 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Retrait du groupe bot pour ChenzwBot / Bot flag removal for ChenzwBot[change source]

Bonjour Chenzw,

J’ai constaté que ton bot ChenzwBot n’a pas fait de modification sur FR:Wikipédia depuis de nombreux mois et j'ai proposé de le retirer de ce groupe. Si tu souhaites commenter cette décision, merci de te rendre ici. Sans réponse de ta part le flag devrait être retiré dans un mois. Merci pour les contributions de ton bot à la Wikipédia en français.

Bonne continuation. Bub's (talk) 16:54, 2 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Chenzw,

I noted that your bot ChenzwBot hasn’t altered FR:Wikipédia for months and I have suggested to remove it’s bot flag. I you whish to comment on that proposal, please go there to do so (you can write in English). By default the flag should be removed in a month. Thank you for your bot's contribution to the French Wikipédia.

Best regards, Bub's (talk) 16:54, 2 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Rollback[change source]

Greetings Chenzw! I am happy I met another Asian here! Chenzw, I would like to request rollback. I am part of the Small Wiki Monitoring Team. I am a rollback at the Simple English Wiktionary (You may check if you would like). Thanks! --Goldenburg111 (talk) 14:03, 2 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page stalker) Hi, please make more edits and revert more vandalism here before requesting again. You need to prove you can be trusted with the Rollback. Thanks! 😉 (✉→Arctic Kangaroo←✎) 14:15, 2 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Sure thing! --Goldenburg111 (talk) 20:54, 2 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Goldenburg111, the user who replied to you is not an administrator, and does not have a say in who gets the rollback right. You might want to either request the right on the request page, or wait for an administrator to reply to you. Arctic Kangaroo, you should not be replying to requests made on admins' talk pages like this. --Auntof6 (talk) 21:09, 2 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Yes Auntof6. I'll be thinking about requesting rollback. Artic Kangaroo did have a good point. But Auntof6, I looked through previous requests for rollback. I spotted when where a user, who was part of the Small Wiki Monitoring Team, requested rollback. The request was not accepted. Then, Osiris left a comment there and the user understand why his request was declined. Anything to say about that? --Goldenburg111 (talk) 21:50, 2 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I am not quite sure what Goldenburg111 is suggesting, but I just want to point out that Osiris is an administrator as well. Anyway, yes, AK's comment about rollback is non-binding, but I second what he said anyway - I refrain from granting rollback to editors unless there is an established history (on this wiki) of anti-vandalism work. Please feel free to use Twinkle or navigation popups, which are available on this wiki as gadgets. Chenzw  Talk  02:19, 3 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Spider International[change source]

There are two points that concern me:

a) I don't think that an article should be posted only when it is absolutely, beyond any doubts complies with all guidelines. I believe in editorial process, such as an article may not immediately comply with all guidelines, but that can be done over time.

b) "Significant coverage in multiple sources" should be viewed in respect of how many reliable sources exist.

To further explain what I mean, let me provide a hypothetical example. Lets say we have a field of audiophile equipment. There are only 3 reliable sources for the matter of the example. One out of the three sources is used in the article. That would mean its covered in 33% of reliable sources. Lets compare it with lets say, again, boxing. We have 100 reliable sources, and boxer Provodnikov is covered in 33 of them, making it 33%.

Please do not discuss the example though, as it may not be a perfect one. I just used it to elucidate what I mean. Tdfdc (talk) 18:07, 6 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Rollback request[change source]

Hi ZW, may I trouble you to attend to my request for rollback? Thanks. And whatever you are busy with, all the best and hope you can return soon. Merry Xmas. (✉→Arctic Kangaroo←✎) 11:33, 24 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I will not process any permission request (rollback, patroller etc.) for now because I have not been active on this wiki and thus very out of touch with what has happened on this wiki over the past few weeks. Please look for another more active administrator instead. Merry Christmas and wishing you a great 2014 in advance! Chenzw  Talk  13:22, 24 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Spider's international review time[change source]

I think that the time for the review process of Spider should be increased to about 10 days, because many editors are on frequent wikibreaks during the new year time.Tdfdc (talk) 13:29, 30 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
