Other Aurora shooting articles

Apparently User:WWGB disagrees with the renaming.

Love of Corey I’m sorry I overlooked consensus and will ask admins to change that. Thanks for the reminder. TLOM (The Lord of Math) (Message) 04:41, 28 March 2020 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Babys (mythology)

Hello The Lord of Math. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Babys (mythology), a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: A7 only applies to real people, not mythological figures. Thank you. SoWhy 08:28, 30 March 2020 (UTC)

Administrators' newsletter – April 2020

News and updates for administrators from the past month (March 2020).

  Guideline and policy news

  • There is an ongoing request for comment to streamline the source deprecation and blacklisting process.

  Technical news

  Arbitration

  • Following the banning of an editor by the WMF last year, the Arbitration Committee resolved to hold a Arbcom RfC regarding on-wiki harassment. A draft RfC has been posted at Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Anti-harassment RfC (Draft) and not open to comments from the community yet. Interested editors can comment on the RfC itself on its talk page.

  Miscellaneous

  • The WMF has begun a pilot report of the pages most visited through various social media platforms to help with anti-vandalism and anti-disinformation efforts. The report is updated daily and will be available through the end of May.

A barnstar for you!

  The Special Barnstar
Thank you for your closure here,

Some things just aren't funny and right now things like that shouldn't be made fun of more so if you've lost a loved one because of it (I haven't but people in the world have),

Anyway thanks again for closing that and for upholding common decency and respect on this platform,
Thanks, Regards, –Davey2010Talk 13:41, 1 April 2020 (UTC)

Carefully read WP:FOOLS please.

Do not use Twinkle for jokes. Do not do joke CSDs either. Both can and will clog up noticeboards meant for serious usage, and may be considered disruptive. —moonythedwarf (Braden N.) 01:15, 1 April 2020 (UTC)

Second this. Dial it down please, it's just not funny this year. – bradv🍁 03:53, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
Bradv, okay I will. TLOM (The Lord of Math) (Message) 03:56, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
Thank you. I have less patience for this than most years, and I know I'm not the only one. – bradv🍁 04:00, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
Bradv, after all this is my first April's Fools. Thanks. TLOM (The Lord of Math) (Message) 04:09, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
Seriously, You still haven't read the page. Tag the fools joke with Template:Humour. ~~ CAPTAIN MEDUSAtalk 13:29, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
CAPTAIN MEDUSA, I don't get it. All I've done since 04:00 UTC is make AfD jokes. I thought these jokes are presumed to not need humor tags (as they are understood). TLOM (The Lord of Math) (Message) 13:41, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
Yes, they still need to be tagged with the template. Look at the rule 2: All jokes must be tagged using {{Humor}} or similar templates, or the inline template {{April fools}}. ~~ CAPTAIN MEDUSAtalk 13:44, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
If you continue to do this you might be blocked from editing. Also, remove {{REMOVE THIS TEMPLATE WHEN CLOSING THIS AfD}} from the AFD whenever nominating one. ~~ CAPTAIN MEDUSAtalk 13:46, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
CAPTAIN MEDUSA, thanks for your tips. With more experience I might just work out better. Anyway I don't think I'll be in action for the rest of 4-1. Cheers, TLOM (The Lord of Math) (Message) 13:53, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
