Requests for help from a sysop or bureaucrat (at Meta-Wiki only)

Archives (current)→

Meta-Wiki has a small active community. When a normal user requires the assistance of an administrator 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. It is only for assistance required at Meta-Wiki, help for other wikis needs to be requested at those wikis. Before posting to this page, make sure your comment doesn't belong at one of these specific request pages: Requests for (translation/central notice/interface) adminship on this Meta-Wiki Requests for CheckUser information on this Meta-Wiki Requests for oversight of edits on this Meta-Wiki General requests for permissions on other wikis Requests for CentralNotice banners and campaigns Import is currently enabled in this wiki from some projects. From other wikis, you will need to copy and paste your materials by hand but please remember to add a link, as a permanent link, and the history of the page being imported in the edit summary to avoid copyright violations.

User:KhanhCN Defender1st Minh

Can someone delete this please? 92.40.168.99 15:39, 14 June 2022 (UTC)

It's my user page! Why delete dude :( KhanhCN Defender1st Minh (talk) 15:40, 14 June 2022 (UTC)

Sysop pls don't! It's my user page! KhanhCN Defender1st Minh (talk) 15:41, 14 June 2022 (UTC)

I will never upload pornography there! I swear! Sysop pls don't delete it! It's just a stupid nsfw warning! KhanhCN Defender1st Minh (talk)

Done - I think sysop has refused! KhanhCN Defender1st Minh (talk) 07:56, 15 June 2022 (UTC)

I need a bit more of context here. The quoted text on the talk page seems silly according to an online translator, but I'd prefer if NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh could weigh in if possible. In addition, I note the user is blocked on vi.wikipedia for (according to the same translator), playing with the system. If the user is repeating the same behaviour that led to his viwiki block over here as well that'd be problematic. —MarcoAurelio (talk) 10:15, 15 June 2022 (UTC)

@MarcoAurelio: It is indeed a silly joke. Note that we don't have CIR on viwiki; if we had the reason would have been incompetence rather than gaming the system. I considered myself involved so I'm not going to comment on their behaviour here. NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh 10:31, 15 June 2022 (UTC)

@MarcoAurelio: what talk page? — KhanhCN Defender1st Minh (talk) 09:26, 17 June 2022 (UTC)

Nobody's talking about talk pages I think. —MarcoAurelio (talk) 10:28, 17 June 2022 (UTC)

Report concerning User:StrikingYouBack

StrikingYouBack (talk • contribs • deleted contribs • logs • filter log • block user • block log • GUC • CA) — Reasons: I protected a cat on Commons against IP edit warring. 2 users took exception - StrikingYouBack was the worst. I received an expletive laden email and they then created an attack page online I can't share the text or urls without triggering abuse filters

Please could you take the appropriate action Gbawden (talk) 14:38, 26 June 2022 (UTC)

Gbawden, You have received an obscene mail from this user from here on Meta, I understand correctly? You can send the necessary details to me by mail. Mykola ^talk 15:25, 26 June 2022 (UTC)

Thats correct. Will send shortly Gbawden (talk) 15:36, 26 June 2022 (UTC)
