How we will see unregistered users

edit

Hi!

You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.

When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.

Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.

If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.

We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.

Thank you. /Johan (WMF)

Speedy deletion of Dyal Singh College

edit

The page Dyal Singh College has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done under section G14 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it was an orphaned disambiguation page which either

  • disambiguated only one extant Wikipedia page and whose title ended in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic);
  • disambiguated zero extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title; or
  • was a redirect with a title ending in "(disambiguation)" that did not target a disambiguation page or page that has a disambiguation-like function.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.

Please do not recreate the material without addressing these concerns, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If you think this page should not have been deleted for this reason, you may contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you may open a discussion at Wikipedia:Deletion Review Liz Read!

Hello Abhishek! Just wanted to ask your assistance with the page on "Nagavanshi." As per all historians of Indian history, there are 4 Kshatriya houses: Suryavanshi, Chandravanshi, Agnivanshi and Nagavanshi. While the first 3 have been given the "Kshatriya" description, it is missing from the Nagavanshi wikipedia page. Kindly add the word "Kshatriya" in the description, as when I try to add, a particular user immediately deletes it for some reason. Cheers! 89.100.169.76 (talk) 03:03, 25 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

Hello, Henry Wilberforce Clarke is my great grandfather. I've seen that you wrote his biography on Wikipedia, so I'd like to ask you more info about him. I also tried to add to the biography the picture of his grave in Sestri di Levante (now destroyed, it seems, by cemetery restoration works) but the website blocked my editing (I don't know why, as I'm not too able with computers). Will you be interested in speaking with me about him and telling me where I can find more info about him? Kindest regards Ginevriscola (talk) 15:45, 30 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hello, Ginevriscola, I did add some info to the page as I found it fascinating. Before adding any information, I would recommend you read WP:OR article, as the policy, we can't add personal research on any page, though you can add from a published source. So if you have any such source you can always add.

As per grave picture, it can be uploaded to wiki commons, and from there, you can add to the above mentioned article. --Ekabhishektalk 10:38, 9 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Requesting some article expansion help

edit

Greetings @Ekabhishek

Hi, I am User:Bookku, On Wikipedia I engage in, finding information and knowledge gap areas in Wikipedia and promoting expansion of related drafts and articles. Came across your edit at New Delhi (Xtools).

Requesting you to visit stub-draft Draft:Rabindra Rangshala and help it's expansion and copy edit if the topic interests you. Bookku (talk) 12:49, 26 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi! User:Bookku! Interesting, I will try. Though there is quite a bit already. --Ekabhishektalk 07:32, 25 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thanks, I shall look forward to your support. Rabindra Rangshala's active days were from October 24,1968 to 1993. I find getting pre-internet era Indian news sources bit difficult. I suppose more hands and minds betters success. Bookku (talk) 09:07, 25 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
@BookkuYou can ask editors who have previously contributed to Photos of Delhi during various drives to help you. Wikicommons would also be a good place and active members of WikiProject Delhi. - Ekabhishektalk 10:11, 30 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello,

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Wikipedia, and what affects administrator retention.

We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.

You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.

The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .
