Resetting passwords

Thank you for the note, please clarify/confirm I can have a universal password (or itcan be the same), for wikipedia, wikisource, meta, etc. Currently have different ones for each and for english and spnanish. --Gumr510906 (talk) 17:54, 8 May 2012 (UTC)

I'm sorry, but you already have a universal password as the account "Gumr51" is a SUL account, see Gumr51 [SULinfo] – [cross-wiki-contribs] ... Trijnstel_talk 18:07, 8 May 2012 (UTC)

Not a problem, I already reset the password, I was not aware that I have a single password, this explains why when I tried to log into Meta, with whateverpasswordI remembered, did not work, and why had to create a temporary account. Always learnsomething new. Thanks.--Gumr51 (talk) 18:11, 8 May 2012 (UTC)

Lovely and you're welcome. Btw, we're not able to delete/remove accounts. Trijnstel_talk 18:14, 8 May 2012 (UTC)

Wikiversiteit

Hallo Trijnstel,

Zie dat je actief bent op diverse wiki-projecten? Zou je mij misschien willen helpen om de Nederlandse wikiversiteit (http://beta.wikiversity.org/wiki/Hoofdpagina) te verbeteren?

Mvg,

Tim, Timboliu (talk) 18:25, 9 May 2012 (UTC)

Hoi Tim/Timboliu. Ik heb hier al meer van gelezen, met name vorig jaar. Zo las ik onder andere dat er op de Nederlandstalige Wikibooks een dergelijk initiatief is gestart: b:nl:Wikiversiteit. Zie ook wmnl:Wikimedia:De kroeg#Nederlandse wikiversiteit en b:nl:Wikibooks:Lerarenkamer/Archief 2011#Opstarten Wikiversiteit in het Nederlands. Daarbij wil ik de opmerking van Blueknight graag onderschrijven: "Waarom concurreren i.p.v. te samenwerken? Een actieve en betrokken gemeenschap bouw je niet zomaar op."

Sysop (administrator) request on Ido.wiki

Hello, Trijnstel,

I've created this page on Ido wiki for others to manifest their approval or not concerning my request to be a sysop there. Is it the kind of page needed, in this case? Best regards, Joao Xavier (talk) 22:42, 12 May 2012 (UTC) (sorry if my English is not so good).

Hi Joao Xavier. Thanks for providing me this information! I added the link to SRP - see here. Please make sure the other editors of io.wikipedia see your RfA and are able to vote (i.e. post it in the local village pump). Your request is on hold for a week, until 19 May. Good luck in advance. Kind regards, Trijnstel_talk 11:19, 13 May 2012 (UTC)

शंतनू is most unwanted person

Hello, Trijnstel,

How come you have given continuation for admin rights to शंतनू on mr@wikisource. He has given wrong information to you. He is most unwanted person and lot many members are shouting against his working on Marathi community. Please look in to the matter. Thanks

Neetin kadu (talk) 08:59, 14 May 2012 (UTC)

Hi Neetin kadu. Could you please provide some evidence of what you're saying? I gave the admin rights to शंतनू for another six months as he started a local discussion on mr.wikisource - he didn't receive supports nor opposes, but as it was there for a week now I assumed it was okay. I'm willing to listen to you and to revoke the rights, but not without some evidence of course... Thanks in advance for your understanding. Kind regards, Trijnstel_talk 10:10, 14 May 2012 (UTC)

Hi, I was unable to locate any complaints either on his extension request or his talk page. I also notice that you're not active on mrwikisource, unless I'm mistaken, the circumstances leave me a bit puzzled. I would suggest that discussing the matter with the user himself would be an appropriate measure, or pointing us to where the matter has already been discussed. I have also notified the user that concerns have been raised regarding the extension so that he can fully comment here should s/he wish to do so. Snowolf ^{How can I help?} 15:51, 14 May 2012 (UTC)

Hi Snowolf

What Neetin Kadu says is correct. शंतनू is a controversial member on Marathi community. As mr@source did not have village pump all the discussions are happening on mr.wikipedia village pump and where there are lot many members have issues against him. One reason is probably he has no experience of wiki community and roles and rules and trying to do experiments for self learning. Check his editing experience on all Wikipedia community at the time he has given first admin ship one can easily understand. -Hari.hari (talk) 02:55, 15 May 2012 (UTC)

If that's the case - several discussions on the village pump of mrwiki (mr:विकिपीडिया:चावडी/प्रगती) - then could you please provide us a few links to them? Trijnstel_talk 20:45, 16 May 2012 (UTC)

administrator request for pnb.wiktionary.org

I have placed a request as permanent adminsitrator at pnb.wiktionary.org [[1]]. Thank you for reminding. --Khalid Mahmood (talk) 19:09, 15 May 2012 (UTC)

Lovely. I added a note so that the other stewards won't remove your admin rights in the next week. Trijnstel_talk 20:48, 16 May 2012 (UTC)

Delete?

What's the deal, Trijnstel?

I look for information on a topic, not finding anything, I create an account and add a stub. When I go back to add some information I found, I find that the article is deleted. When I ask why on the discussion page, the discussion page is deleted and so is my account?

How is this supposed to encourage community contributions? I would have to describe my first interaction with the wikipedia community as: "Hostile". —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Christopherprice (talk • contribs) 21:45, 18 May 2012‎ (UTC)

I suggest you to take a look at your user talk before complaining. I quote Savh: "This is not Wikipedia, please see Meta:About. Wikipedia is here." Trijnstel_talk 22:02, 18 May 2012 (UTC)

Update: I really hope to get some feedback. Perhaps I owe you an apology about my account deletion as it may have just been part of the username change process (It seems that my request to change my username to ChristopherPrice was completed). Seriously, though, I don't understand the policy. Doesn't the referred to G7 require a "known and definable historic context"? That is why I linked to the very popular TED video. Christopherprice (talk) 22:08, 18 May 2012 (UTC)

I'm sorry, but I don't think you understood what I said. This is not Wikipedia, this is Meta-Wiki. And besides, that is completely out of scope. Trijnstel_talk 22:36, 18 May 2012 (UTC)

Plus...

You have email and I should have said - should the account be locked? You may wish to discuss that elsewhere. Best --Herby ^{talk thyme} 16:09, 23 May 2012 (UTC)

Thanks. I'll take the appropriate measures. Will inform others about it. Trijnstel_talk 16:26, 23 May 2012 (UTC)

Meta:Requests for adminship/Receptie123 (temp)

That was an unbelievable close conflict! I've moved the page to add (temp) to the page name following the format for other temporary requests. Best, The Helpful One 20:01, 23 May 2012 (UTC)

Hi Thehelpfulone... Wow, that was really unbelievable! I saw the red link (Meta:Requests for adminship/Receptie123) and I thought - did I make a mistake in the title name? And then I saw that you changed the page name. xD Thanks for fixing though. It's good to know that we have so many active crats here! ;) Kind regards, Trijnstel_talk 20:04, 23 May 2012 (UTC)

You're welcome - Trijnstel as the next crat! ;) The Helpful One 20:05, 23 May 2012 (UTC)

Nah. This example shows to me that Meta doesn't need any more crats now. ;) Trijnstel_talk 20:09, 23 May 2012 (UTC)

Dank voor de ondersteuning

Hallo Trijnstel, Ik dank u voor de ondersteuning en de beoordeling. Er zijn redenen voor een desysop voor mij op wikiquote, maar inactiviteit is dat niet. Ik zal me nog een tijdje rustig houden aldaar en kijk dan of er nog wat te redden is. Aventicum (talk) 20:42, 25 May 2012 (UTC)

Graag gedaan. Ik vond de hele gang van zaken op z'n zachtst gezegd nogal vreemd. Hopelijk kunnen jullie eruit komen op nl.wikiquote. Trijnstel_talk 20:51, 25 May 2012 (UTC)
