Requests for help from a sysop or bureaucrat

Archives (current)→

Meta has a small active community. When a normal user requires the assistance of a sysop or bureaucrat for some particular task, it is not always easy to find one. This page helps users find one when they need one; asking specific admins directly via their talk pages is one way to elicit a fast response.

Been vandalized by various IPs

Resolved.

I have been vandalized by IPs (you can check my talk page, en.wiki talk page, deletion history of this page and this page). It seems to me that someone is using open proxy to change place to everywhere (from Singapore IP to U.S. IP). Is there any way to take a good care of it? Or I have to undo and put delete templates all the time? Tân (talk) 14:44, 12 February 2010 (UTC)

That is a tough question and I'm not sure I have the right answer; at the opposite end of the spectrum, you can address an administrator to restrain those pages from editing indefinitely.87.117.205.29 14:59, 12 February 2010 (UTC)

Vinhtantran, your talk page here on meta has been semi-protected until 15. February 2010 by Tiptoety. For protection on other projects, you should contact a Sysop there. --WizardOfOz ^talk 08:34, 13 February 2010 (UTC)

Will be nice if someone can reactivate my sysop status. It was removed by own request temporary here. No reason more not to use sysop flag. --WizardOfOz ^talk 21:12, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

Done. vvv^t 21:16, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

Sysop tools

Hi all. It seems that I am using my administrator tools at meta very little these days. Could a bureaucrat or a steward please remove my admin access? Thanks, NW (Talk) 21:44, 16 March 2010 (UTC)
