Notice of review of adminship (April 2023)

Hello Wiki13,

Pursuant Meta:Administrators/Removal and because you have made fewer than ten logged administrator actions over the past six months, your adminship is under review at Meta:Administrators/Removal/April 2023. If you would like to retain your adminship, please sign there before April 09, 2023.

Kind regards, —MarcoAurelio (talk) 15:22, 2 April 2023 (UTC)

Hello again. Unfortunately you did not sign on that page to keep your advanced permissions before the end of April 9, so they have been removed from your account. Sincerely, —MarcoAurelio (talk) 20:03, 10 April 2023 (UTC)

Hi Marco,

Thanks for notifying me. Unfortunately for me the timing for both the first and your second message was unfortunate. At the moment of your first message until today, I was on a holiday with limited to no internet access. Therefore I had no time to reply to this in a timely manner during the review. I do however am to blame for not having not enough actions before the deadline. Wiki13 (talk) 09:09, 11 April 2023 (UTC)

On SRG you said you global locked the account but I don't see that they are locked on CentralAuth. Shadow of the Starlit Sky (talk) 04:05, 7 May 2023 (UTC)

Without an account name it's hard to say about which user it is exactly about. Wiki13 (talk) 12:27, 15 June 2023 (UTC)

Since this got archived

Hi @1234qwer1234qwer4, without looking I'm assuming it's a mistake. Sometimes I mistake the buttons for the different lock options stewards have (the hide options also have has 3 options: no-hide, hide, supress). Wiki13 (talk) 12:23, 15 June 2023 (UTC)

Correction to this: the above is not entirely true. The buttons right beneath eachother, so an accidental misclick can happen. Wiki13 (talk) 13:33, 15 June 2023 (UTC)

Thanks, could you maybe unhide them as with Special:PermanentLink/25090388#Global lock for Evanrutchik for transparency? ~~~~
User:1234qwer1234qwer4 (talk) 20:26, 15 June 2023 (UTC)

Should be done now. Wiki13 (talk) 14:01, 22 June 2023 (UTC)

Thanks! ~~~~

Global lock - LTA

Greetings, regarding this resolution, I cannot find any evidence that the lock was executed. Elizium23 (talk) 10:00, 7 September 2023 (UTC)

the account has been hidden/suppressed, that’s why it doesn’t show at CentralAuth [1] or in any logs except for the global account log per mw:Extension:CentralAuth#Locking and hiding global users. --Johannnes89 (talk) 10:52, 7 September 2023 (UTC)

Sorry for the late reply @Elizium23, but what Johannnes89 wrote is correct. Lockhides or supressions will not show up in the logs, neither can you see them as normal user on CentralAuth for obvious reasons. Only stewards and WMF-staff have the permissions necessary to actually see it. Wiki13 (talk) 13:16, 12 September 2023 (UTC)

Okay, makes perfect sense! Sorry for noob question! I am now enlightened. Elizium23 (talk) 14:17, 12 September 2023 (UTC)

Please Help Me

Hi, I am unfortunately writing this while breaking Wikipedia rules because I have been unjustly banned for offense that I did not commit. I am new Wikipedia editor that started to edit 2-3 days ago and I got in a edit war which I did not was a thing or illegal at that time which made me banned for 48 hours, ban applied to my account and ip address which I completely agree with. I was being childish but then my account was completely banned by some other admin for sock puppeting which I had no idea what it was at that time. I am saying this with my completely honestly I have never been banned on wikipedia before and not seriously edited anything before, I have done some minor edits some years ago back never got any warning or messages and didn’t read any rules at that time. I say this with all my integrity yet I got banned for sockpuppeting, also I was doing editing at that time from different country so there is no way that administrator somehow thought with the logic that same ip used wiki couple of years ago and it must be sockpuppeting. Due to that I wrote at this admin’s talk page how he treated me unjustly he removed my replies and banned my IP too, while this time look I knew you were sockpuppetting and his other admin friends that I appointed sided with him. Please help me I really want to edit wikipedia pages more but if I have gotten unjustly banned because of this I will stop because there is no guarantee it will not happen again.
