Hello, could an administrator please change MediaWiki:Wikibase-editlinks per the headline? Thanks.  Hazard-SJ  ✈  02:09, 8 May 2013 (UTC)

 Done. Osiris (talk) 02:34, 8 May 2013 (UTC)

Mythdon [change]

Hey folks,

As you may have noticed, Mythdon has requested an unblock. He is blocked, and as far as I can tell, was never officially banned. However, with the block taking place so far in the past, I'm looking for opinions. Reading the statement provided, I am willing to lift the block. Thoughts? --Gordonrox24 | Talk 05:20, 11 May 2013 (UTC)

I wasn't going to comment, since I'm not familiar with the user's history -- but since nobody else has done so, I'd say you should go ahead with unblocking. The appeal is well-formed, there is no evidence of any other disruption and the user has certainly done their time. Osiris (talk) 13:51, 19 May 2013 (UTC)
Osiris pretty much sums up what I wish to say. It should be alright. Chenzw  Talk  14:04, 19 May 2013 (UTC)

Copyright violation [change]

Copyright violation here, taken from here. Thanks, --Snow Blizzard 17:27, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

Hide change [change]

Hello. Can an administrator please suppress 15:36, 4 May 2013‎ and my edit(s) on User talk:7mike5000 please? Because there has been profanic terrible vandalism, so this should be suppressed. Thanks. (But please do not remove my comment.) curtaintoad | chat me! 09:07, 17 May 2013 (UTC)

There's nothing there that needs to be suppressed or even deleted. Wikipedia is not censored, and profanity is not something that warrants deletion. Please read WP:RD. Osiris (talk) 09:18, 17 May 2013 (UTC)
CT, I reverted your removal of those comments. They didn't fit the definition of a personal attack, plus we shouldn't be removing a user's comments from his own talk page. --Auntof6 (talk) 09:36, 17 May 2013 (UTC)

Weth [change]

Please create-protect the above page. It has been repeatedly re-created. curtaintoad | chat me! 06:22, 23 May 2013 (UTC)

 Done for 2 weeks. Chenzw  Talk  08:52, 23 May 2013 (UTC)

Request to move page over redirect [change]

Would someone please move Edit to Editor? Reasons:

  • The page is in fact disambiguating "editor", not "edit"
  • A noun is a better page name than the verb

Thanks. --Auntof6 (talk) 01:04, 24 May 2013 (UTC)
