French Open results

edit

Please don't add information about French Open results until a player actually loses. The infobox is for their best performance in their career, and we have no idea who will win or lose in the first round at Roland Garros yet, as the tournament is yet to start. SHould a player actually lose in the first round, your edits would be correct, but right now, they are not. Courcelles 18:40, 20 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Hmm... ok then... but they reached at least in the first round. But let's wait then, when they loses. --Stryn(t) 18:50, 20 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Hi Stryn - the way to load pictures into commons is to use this link. Main problem is to convince everyone that you have the copyright. Its easy if it is YOUR picture.

Your request for rollback

edit
 

Hi Stryn. After reviewing your request for rollback, I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

  • Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
  • Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
  • Rollback should never be used to edit war.
  • If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
  • Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Malinaccier (talk) 21:38, 5 March 2013 (UTC)Reply

 

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. The list of articles awaiting review is located at Special:PendingChanges. A full list of articles that have pending changes protection turned on will be at Special:StablePages.

Being granted reviewer rights neither grants you status nor changes how you can edit articles. If you do not want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time.

Hi! (I'm not sure if the Wikipedia currently notifies about these, but anyway.) In case you haven't noticed, I edited the singlechart template, so that ifpi.fi is the source for chart peaks and chart processions in Finland.

Name of Capitol Shooting Incident article

edit

There are two other articles involving earlier shooting incidents:

  1. United States Capitol shooting incident (1954)
  2. United States Capitol shooting incident (1998).

Should the name of the current name, 2013 United States Capitol shooting incident, be changed back to United States Capitol shooting incident (2013) for the sake of consistency?

Is there a standard for naming such events?—GoldRingChip 19:03, 3 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

Oh, I didn't know there was also other shooting incidents at the US Capitol... I don't know anything about how these should be named. I just saw 2012 Aurora shooting.

Olet estänyt IP-osoitteeni muokkaamisen vandalismin vuoksi

Hei Stryn! Sain viestisi, että olet estänyt IP-osoitteestani muokkaamisen vandalismin vuoksi. En ole kuitenkaan tehnyt vandalismia. Olin muokkaamassa artikkelia Kari Peitsamo ja viestisi saatuani tekemäni muokkaukset katosivat, eli minun pitää kirjoittaa ne uudestaan. Kirjoitan nyt sinulle englanninkielisen sivun kautta, koska kehotit ottamaan yhteyden ylläpitäjään, jos olen syytön, ja suomenkielisellä sivulla en voi kirjoittaa. Voitko poistaa asettamasi eston? IP-osoitteeni on (87.93.119.108), eston tunnus on (#1951649) ja eston kohde on (87.93.0.0/16).

Hei! En ollut nimeomaisesti yrittänyt sinua estää, vaan erään pitkäaikaisen vandaalin, joka muokkaa samasta osoiteavaruudesta (87.93.0.0/16). Eston asetin vain kahdeksi tunniksi, mutta otin sen nyt taas pois, joten muokkaaminen onnistunee ainakin nyt taas niin kauan kunnes estoa joudutaan taas laittamaan. Suosittelen sinua luomaan tunnuksen Wikipediaan, koska silloin nuo estot eivät koske sinua, ja pystyt muokkaamaan ihan normaalisti. --Stryn (talk) 11:19, 7 February 2015 (UTC)Reply

So, to avoid me blocking someone with a pending rename request in the future, could you tell me where they requested the rename? Was it on meta?--v/r - TP 06:31, 7 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

Yes, I really disagree with URunICon because of his selfish. Then, do you want to block me??

IreneTandry (talk) 00:04, 15 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

You can disagree with anyone, but the problem are your edit summaries that shouldn't be used to attack against other users. And I won't block you. Just change your behavior a little. Thanks Stryn (talk) 11:01, 15 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

No, I won't. I still with my behavior if the other users still accuse me as vandal although I truly contribute to Wikipedia. You're similar with URunICon. If you won't make problem with me, I won't come/reply to your talk page and you may not come/reply/warn to my talk page. That's it. IreneTandry (talk) 11:51, 15 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

You are making problems yourself if you continue attacking users, but I'm not going to follow your edits or edit summaries anymore, as I'm not that active in this project. But you will get into problems with English Wikipedia admins if you don't change your behavior, best --Stryn (talk) 11:54, 15 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Then, I will not listen just to you and your ally, URunICon. I know the rule but users like you and your ally URunICon accuse me as vandal and I don't accept it. I give you "the middle-finger". IreneTandry (talk) 05:54, 16 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Where did I say you are a vandal? Stryn (talk) 06:04, 16 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Can you read your own message? Are you blind? "You will get into problems with English Wikipedia admins". You swear at me and accuse me as vandal again like URunICon. I didn't change my behavior because of you and you ally, URunICon. If you stop warning me like "the Lord", I will edit at Wikipedia better like users generally. IreneTandry (talk) 10:48, 16 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Discussion closed and no reply expected. Not possible to talk constructively with you. Stryn (talk) 10:52, 16 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Yes, discussion is really close and no talk constructively with you too.... Because you are from Finland, just like URunICon, and I suspect you and URunICon are allies. IreneTandry (talk) 10:55, 16 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Deletion request

edit

OK, that makes more sense. I declined it because you'd marked it for deletion because it was a test page, and it's perfectly OK for people to experiment in their own user sandbox. Hut 8.5 21:19, 6 December 2017 (UTC)Reply

Galleries are a legitimate part of any article. Your deletion of the abovementioned gallery is disruptive editing. I Have reverted your deletion.

Help us design granular blocks!

edit

Hello :-) The Anti-Harassment Tools team at the Wikimedia Foundation will start building these granular blocking tools in a few weeks and we've asked WMF designer Alex Hollender to help us make some wireframes so the tools are intuitive to MediaWiki users.

We have a first draft of how we think this tool should work. You can read the full proposed implementation here but here are the significant parts:

  • Granular blocks (page, category, namespace, and file uploading) will be built on top of Special:Block. These blocks will function as if they were regular blocks and allow for the same options, but only take effect on specific pages.
  • We will add a new checkbox for "Block this user from the whole site" which will be checked by default. When it is unchecked the admin will be able to specify which pages, categories, and/or namespaces the user should be blocked from editing.
  • Granular blocks can be combined and/or overlap. (For example, a user could be simultaneously blocked from editing the articles Rain, Thunder, Lightning, and all pages inside the Category:Weather.)
  • Only one block is set at a time, to adjust what the user is blocked from the administrator would have to modify the existing block.
  • Block logs should display information about the granular block
  • When a blocked user attempts to edit an applicable page, they should see a block warning message which include information on their block (reason, expiration, what they are blocked from, etc.)
  • If a category is provided, the blocked user cannot edit either the category page itself and all pages within the category.
  • If the File: namespace is blocked, the user should not be allowed to upload files.

We like this direction because it builds on top of the existing block system, both a technical and usability wise. Before we get too far along with designs and development we'd like to hear from you about our prosposal:

  1. What do you think of the proposed implementation?
  2. We believe this should be an expansion of Special:Block, but it has been suggested that this be a new special page. What are your thoughts?
  3. Should uploading files be combined with a File namespace block, or as a separate option? (For example, if combined, when a user is blocked from the File namespace, they would neither be able to edit any existing pages in the File namespace nor upload new files.)
  4. Should there be a maximum number of things to be blocked from? Or should we leave it up to admin discretion?

Why am I blocked

edit

Hi Stryn,

I was wondering why you blocked me. I am a student in a Digital Writing Course on Wikipedia, from the University of Sydney and I need to access Wikipedia in order to complete my coursework.

Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Brubyk6901 (talkcontribs) 02:43, 30 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
