Hello

Hello CodeLearnerSai! It’s me spaghettiag852097- from the scratch wiki! Just wanted to say hi. (Please reply if you see this so I know this is actually you.SpaghettiAG852097- (talk) 03:00, 13 January 2023 (UTC)

Please reply I know you read thisSpaghettiAG852097- (talk) 03:04, 16 January 2023 (UTC)

Yes, this is me. Faster than Thunder (talk) 17:31, 22 October 2023 (UTC)

about two questions (if i can),...

hello my estimated Faster than Thunder,... i'll hopes you're having the best possible night/morning there in home,...
and also to asks you about two things, the 1st one, it's what i read previously, in the BackupWiki article, that's needed 25 editions, and 7 days to becomes an auto-confirmed user, so my question it's those editions has to be done here, or can be done on any wikipedia's related addresses? (until now i has a global account in 4 of those addresses),...
and the second one, related with the concept/idea of BackupWiki, that i found very interesting (i has to says it), it has been considered the idea also, to moves here (there), the deleted articles by any reason, what later would be used by the same users there, or in the other wikis, to improves them enough and there finally publishes them on the respective language wiki?,...
hoping you're having the best possible night/mornign there in home, and sending you my regards,... Gpant23a (talk) 08:13, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

I answered your questions by editing BackupWiki. There, more people will know. Faster than Thunder (talk) 10:35, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

ahhhh, ok my estimated, i has just saw it, and i has just entered in the space of BackupWiki too (just moments ago),... and i'm thinking about creates a category that would eventually reunites (by language ideally later, in the future), the contents from the different available wikipedias (and i'm not sure if i'll be making it correctly),... so would you likes to gives it a look later (and recommends me ideas if i made a good approaching, or not please),... with so few content yet, i'm not sure if everything it's alright,...
thanking you by the consideration, and sending you my regards also (in the meantime),... Gpant23a (talk) 13:54, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

I wonder why categorization by language edition would be needed since categorization by project and Special:PrefixIndex are already there. Faster than Thunder (talk) 03:38, 11 August 2023 (UTC)

i don't knows yet my estimated, but i thought would be needed eventually (in the future), if the article numbers from every origin place, makes it (in some way), unmanageable,... also thought, what would makes the category structures looks better (and more ordered), but that's still it's an evolving thing (just starting yet),...
i has also noted what the structure inside wikispore, it's a little disordered (just saying it, in some way),... those because i has saw in recent changes (at least), appears editions from several of the spores inside (may be i'm wrong), before august of this year,... so i thought that way too, keeps the structures (categories includes), inside the particular BackupWiki spore (may be making/moving BackupWiki, a subdomain of wikispores, would fixes it?, i don't knows),... please correct me if i has done bad,...
also to asks you please, forgives my english if it's not perfect enough (those because my mother language it's spanish, i'm a chilean citizen),... Gpant23a (talk) 07:21, 11 August 2023 (UTC)

sorry to bothers you, my estimated, but do you haves somewhere a list with the 2 letter codes, for every wikipedia project? (to can adds it somewhere inside the WikiBackup project idea),... those because i doesn't haves them, and were trying to creates (replicates) articles from wiktionary, and wikisource also (to adds them on WikiBackup),... that's all by the moment, and if you can also, can you takes a look of the articles i'm added in the meantime (just to see i'm doing it correctly), thanks so, so much,... sending you my regards also, in the meantime,... Gpant23a (talk) 18:31, 14 August 2023 (UTC)

please forget about the last one (sorry), my estimated, i just found (moments ago), a table with the 2 letters/word codes, for the wikimedia projects, what should be backed up inside BackupWiki,... really sorry about it,... hopes you're having the best possible night/morning, in the meantime,... Gpant23a (talk) 11:47, 15 August 2023 (UTC)

If you need to, rename the created pages with the incorrect names according to this documentation. Faster than Thunder (talk) 12:46, 15 August 2023 (UTC)

yes, my estimated, it were those page (the one what i found previously),... i'll be studying it a little more, before replicates articles from the wiktionaries, and the wikisources (between other places),... thanks so, so much again,... Gpant23a (talk) 16:33, 15 August 2023 (UTC)

Warning templates

Hi Faster than Thunder, please stop sending warning templates to random IPs / users [1], especially when it wasn't even you who reverted their edits. It's pretty much useless to send such a warning to an IP hours after the edit occurred, because a) most IPs are dynamic -> the person is probably already using another IP and b) logged-out users are likely to miss such a message anyway per en:WP:THEYCANTHEARYOU. There's also no point in sending out a warning if a user has already stopped. Johannnes89 (talk) 07:56, 22 June 2025 (UTC)

How can I convert the time used by the wiki to my time zone? This will be very helpful in deciding whether the edit was recent since it will be in my time zone. P.S. I live in the Pacific time zone. Faster than Thunder (talk) 16:47, 22 June 2025 (UTC)

Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-rendering-timeoffset or the UTCLive-Clock in Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-gadgets might be helpful (or user scripts like en:User:Caburum/UTCclock). But it's not just a timing issue, a warning is only useful if there's reason to expect the other person to notice and react to it. No need to send a warning to an IP doing a one-time test edit, just revert it and that's it. Johannnes89 (talk) 09:47, 23 June 2025 (UTC)

Hello Faster than Thunder, Please see the message Johannnes89 said, you're doing the things, like User talk:~2025-27991-71, their edit (1) were reverted 3 hours before you sending the warning. I suggest sending the warnings to users whose edits you've reverted. Thanks. 🪶-TΛNBIRUZZΛMΛN (💬) 16:11, 7 October 2025 (UTC)

Please, stop pointlessly warning temporary account users like this one, especially when they don't even have any edits. Filter messages are already a kind of warning. NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh 22:32, 10 October 2025 (UTC)

What about block requests for users who trigger the abuse filter a high number of times rapidly? Faster than Thunder (talk) 22:37, 10 October 2025 (UTC)

Clarification needed

Hi, a clarification is needed on your edit. I am inclined to revert, since it is technically not correct and vague. --M/ (talk) 06:58, 14 October 2025 (UTC)

I made it because blocks on one wiki may influence those on another (not from a technical perspective, but from a user perspective). For example, a user who gets blocked for disruptive editing is more likely to be blocked for a longer duration if blocked on another wiki than those who are not blocked on any other wiki. My edit is about the application of the one-strike rule. Faster than Thunder (talk) 13:54, 14 October 2025 (UTC)

I understand, but this was a document that was intended to help with the transition from local accounts to global ones. Perhaps this is not necessary here, but if you want to keep that, you should try to rephrase, since there are two "However"'s on adjacent sentences and the context is not very clear since this is not a document related to vandalism fighting. --M/ (talk) 14:36, 14 October 2025 (UTC)

Age??

I doubt your age according to this: My father thinks that I got blocked on Wikipedia simply because I wrote this article at the age of 11.. Out of curiosity, how old are you (do not reveal your dob to preserve privacy). ToadetteEdit (talk) 08:53, 14 November 2025 (UTC)

Nah, forget this; ages are just numbers; a young editor like you can be successful in project spaces thanks to maturity. Whilst an adult might not be capable enough to absorb the heat that discussions generate. I am too skeptical about your enwiki block, which was done for the same reasons as your previous block, and it appears that your unblock conditions are largely the same as mine except that yours was a bit more broadly than mine. A powerful message; leave the anti-vandal fighting and try to expand content on other projects, perhaps on the Wikivoyage, because of the concerns pointed above. This way, you would prove that after months of positive article edits, you would prove youself that you are on Wikipedia to build, not to follow other editors and entering into arguments, and opening discussions anywhere (unless if this relates to content of course). ToadetteEdit (talk) 20:02, 20 November 2025 (UTC)

Right. I need to know that my actions' consequences can differ greatly from their impact. Faster than Thunder (talk) 21:10, 20 November 2025 (UTC)

After reading this, it is pretty much clear that the only medicine is to never follow editors, in any way. It is fine to watch a user talk page, but not a user's contribs. Ah, and you should preferably wait for three months minimum rather than continuing to insert your defense onto the thread, and come back with a clear record of no violations on other wikis. I myself have been editing various wikis for three months now and literally did not have any complaints or warnings at all, just a declined permission request. You got this. ToadetteEdit (talk) 20:10, 21 November 2025 (UTC)

Gswiki

Hey! In response to your last report on GSR, there's a wikiset, Special:WikiSets/7, where global sysops doesn’t have access or stewards can't take action, same as the simplewiki. There're some script might be helpful for you, e.g. XReport and TwinkleGlobal. After installing one of this you'll find reporting to GSR only in gswikis where Global sysops and stewards can take action. 🪶-TΛNBIRUZZΛMΛN (💬) 05:16, 15 November 2025 (UTC)

Userpage

You may want to change the color of your user page as it is causing problems with readability (section headers specifically) if viewed in dark mode. ToadetteEdit (talk) 09:44, 23 November 2025 (UTC)

Thanks for making this edit. ToadetteEdit (talk) 16:12, 23 November 2025 (UTC)

Recent SRG edits ...

Please carefully re-read the appropriate English Wikipedia policy on hounding and stop spreading misrepresentations. Your recent comment on SRG is hounding as well even if you ironically denied doing that in the future. I suggest dropping the stick for a while since it seems you're still under the emotional influence of having a rejected unblock request. Best regards, A09|(pogovor) 18:24, 5 December 2025 (UTC)

@A09, let me get this: I should only escalate my ENWP block to the U4C once I have followed administrator instructions and all local appeal methods have been tried and failed. I understand that hounding includes discussing another editor in their absence, but what's still especially unclear to me is stated in point 3.1 in Requests for comment/Unclear harassment policy on English Wikipedia. I'll edit other projects constructively for 6 months before appealing through UTRS. Faster than Thunder (talk) 19:01, 5 December 2025 (UTC)

As far as I am aware you have not yet reached the end of the block appeal hierarchy (UTRS is still open). And no, U4C will likely not consider your case to be valid as it is not a dispute court nor a block appeal process. To be frank, U4C isn’t even meant to judge upon enwiki bar extreme cases as it has very well established proceedings, and I am not the first one to tell you this. A09|(pogovor) 21:26, 5 December 2025 (UTC)

I will stop forum-shopping. Thanks. Faster than Thunder (talk) 21:35, 5 December 2025 (UTC)

Use of Meta-Wiki

Hi. Please do not use Meta-Wiki to circumvent existing appeals processes for your blocks on other projects. If you’ve exhausted those processes, it may be time to find a new hobby. Continuing to contact enwiki admins here (or elsewhere outside of existing appeals processes) will just result in more sanctions against you. I would strongly recommend taking some time off from editing Wikimedia projects. Vermont (🐿️—🏳️‍🌈) 03:33, 23 December 2025 (UTC)

I’m sorry. I’ve just been dying for my TPA on ENWP. Faster than Thunder (talk) 06:09, 23 December 2025 (UTC)

@Vermont, I sent multiple appeals on the UTRS asking for my TPA and email access on ENWP and got declined because I didn’t address the fundamental block itself. Faster than Thunder (talk) 16:39, 23 December 2025 (UTC)

I would strongly recommend taking some time off from editing Wikimedia projects. In the order of months if not years. Vermont (🐿️—🏳️‍🌈) 22:52, 24 December 2025 (UTC)

I disagree with the reasons I was declined on UTRS. I crystal-clearly stated that I was asking for my TPA and email access, addressing the behavior that led to their revocation. Per w:WP:ADMINACCT:

Subject only to the bounds of civility, avoiding personal attacks, and reasonable good faith, editors are free to question or to criticize administrator actions. Administrators are expected to respond promptly and civilly to queries about their Wikipedia-related conduct and administrative actions, ...

So I'm beginning to wonder whether I should question Deepfriedokra about this as my (hopefully) last pursuit of my ENWP block here. Faster than Thunder (talk) 04:50, 25 December 2025 (UTC)

I'm reading a number of project pages on Wikipedia such as Wikipedia:Editors have pride and am starting to think that the best solution to those declined UTRS messages would have been to just reinstate TPA rather than declining. Faster than Thunder (talk) 11:55, 25 December 2025 (UTC)

Hello. As pointed out in the past, Meta isn't a place to appeal your blocks at other wikis, and continuing to dwell the issues out to other admins is considered hounding. In order for you to cool down and take some time off, I've temporarily blocked you for a week with talk page access disabled. Please do take this at hand for when you come back from your block, and as Vermont has brought up above, I would suggest taking other users' advice at hand and waiting some time before appealing your block. EPIC (talk) 12:58, 25 December 2025 (UTC)

Blocked

Hello Faster than Thunder, with the recent edits to the U4C talk page and the new case you have filed, it seems like you aren't taking the advice you have been given above and elsewhere. I don't see a path for you to have constructive contributions on Meta at this point, so to avoid further forumshopping and borderline harassment I have indefinitely blocked your account here. You are welcome to appeal, but I caution you to take some time before you do so, so you can demonstrate that you would have things to contribute on Meta other than rehashing old disputes. You seem like an enthusiastic editor who is here in good faith, so I do apologize for this, but at the same time even a well intentioned person can fall short of the expectations we set for users here. – Ajraddatz (talk) 21:04, 11 January 2026 (UTC)

Appeal

Unblock request declined This blocked user has had their unblock request reviewed by one or more administrators, who has/have reviewed and declined this request. Other administrators can also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked. Request reason: I filed Universal Code of Conduct/Coordinating Committee/Cases/2026/Systemic failure to provide UCoC protection by ENWP admins because I suspected UCoC issues related to Tamzin. I easily personalized uncivility targeted at me. I suspected UCoC violations on Tamzin's part. It was a bad idea because I didn't consider the advice others have been giving me. I should have used ENWP venues well. I understand that I should listen to others before applying policies on them. I promise that I will not do anything with regards to English Wikipedia if I am unblocked for the remainder of my block there, and this will go on if I get more blocks anywhere. I should have not filed the case in question to begin with and only edited projects in other ways unrelated to ENWP. I will wait until I regain UTRS access to request unblock on ENWP again. I will spend this time editing projects other than ENWP with no regards to ENWP. I also have this question: If Universal Code of Conduct/Coordinating Committee/Cases/2026/Systemic failure to provide UCoC protection by ENWP admins is not decided by the time I am unblocked, may I continue to participate in the discussion until it is closed and then drop the stick indefinitely? Or do I need to back away from the carcass immediately? Faster than Thunder (talk) 23:32, 11 January 2026 (UTC) Decline reason: Neither the unblock reason nor your answer to EPIC's question inspires much confidence. You did not tell us what contributions you would make if unblocked. The first and second bullets merely summarize what you did from your own perspective. The sixth as well as the latter half of the third have nothing to do with your block here. The former half of the fourth is especially problematic, in particular: it starts with I understand and I should listen but ends with before applying policies on them. I'm revoking your talk page access for six months. If you are serious about changing your behaviour, take the standard offer and edit other projects constructively in the mean time.

I will not be handling this appeal, but just as my note here; with my previous one week block I was hoping that it would finally send you the message that your use of Meta was (and had continued to be) inappropriate. I was disappointed to see that it didn't, especially since you emailed me afterwards saying you would stop using Meta for dwelling on enwiki issues. Considering that this and many other notices from well-meaning users have been ignored, I'm not convinced you have learned from the many community members who have tried getting you on the right track, nor that much would change if you were unblocked at this time. So my question to you is; why would we, and why should we, trust you this time, and if you were unblocked, what do you intend to contribute to Meta? EPIC (talk) 07:31, 12 January 2026 (UTC)

Now that the case is declined, I am willing to consider it to be the final decision. Faster than Thunder (talk) 17:22, 12 January 2026 (UTC)

Your email

Hi, I know you're blocked here, but I'll respond to your email.

6 months ago, when all of this started, I proposed a topic ban for you on enwikivoyage with the hopes that you would focus away from food-related topics and edit areas that you're actually familiar with. And when I mean "actually familiar with", I mean you actually having the knowledge and subject expertise to edit (not content generated from ChatGPT). Then for some weird reason, you seemed to think that Asamboi was entirely to blame here, then decided to bring what was entirely an enwikivoyage issue with an end date to enwiki...and getting indeffed there wasn't enough, you decided to further import enwiki issues to Meta? I think you can see where I'm going – if you keep importing issues from other wikis onto a different wiki, you're only going to find yourself indefinitely blocked on more wikis.

So what can I suggest now? First, I would take a deep long break away from any WMF project for at least 3 months or so. Keep your mind focused on other things and come with a fresh mindset when you return. Time is almost always the one aspect needed to rebuild trust, and taking a long proper break will help with that. Once you return, I would absolutely focus working on tawikivoyage in the incubator. That's something you know you've been doing well for a while now; even if it has no community, it demonstrates your ability to work well in a constructive manner. As for demonstrating that you can work collaboratively, enwikivoyage is always open, just heed with caution (including asking for comment on the talk page or the pub if you're unsure) and you're already on your way out of those two blocks.

Now normally I don't respond to emails like this or give such advice, but I can somewhat sympathise as I've done plenty of dumb and stupid shit at your age in real life (some of them were ridiculously stupid, looking back; learned the hard way in many cases), and also never expected what happened to be a minor sanction to devolve into where things currently stand. I know your TPA is revoked, but I also don't expect a response here, just some simple advice for how to improve your prospects from here.

Best,
//shb (t • c) 08:14, 21 January 2026 (UTC)

Seconded. I have told you like over two months or so to leave the enwiki thing and contribute elsewhere, but instead you apparently took the opposite direction and only got yourself blocked here (with no TPA as well). To quote myself again, you should preferably wait for three months minimum rather than continuing to insert your defense onto the thread, and come back with a clear record of no violations on other wikis. The "insert your defense" rationale, which led all the way to u4c (!!!), backfired; the metawiki block should wake you up and start afresh, first in the real world, then onto projects away from enwiki for several months (I suggest even up to a year). I personally have had a declined unban earlier this month, but I did not take the decline rationale (and the discussion) as a mean of argument, but as a tool of personal growth; I have now been contributing on the Arabic Wikipedia (+100 articles created, got autopatrol), and will increase my contributions in Wikidata and Commons.

For the final time, I encourage you to take all piece of advice as a source of growth both personally and mentally, and by 2027 (or mid-late 2026) you will be be seen very differently from the user who drained community resources up to the maximum level and will instead be the user who came to the projects for the core reason: content contribution. Good luck! ToadetteEdit (talk) 21:20, 24 January 2026 (UTC)

Third, for the sake of your goddamn mental health, FTT, you need to know that all Wikimedia wikis are not a venue to address your mental health. Seek professional advice. You know that you should not contribute under a bad mood. Ahri Boy (talk) 01:04, 26 January 2026 (UTC)
