I was wondering if when you had time you could look at my talk page to help with something I am trying to submit? You were very helpful before on the Patrick Ching one. If you don't have time I understand. I was trying to add 808 viral and it deleted and I wasn't even given a chance to respond. That same person seems to do that to everyone, says it is promotional or complains but doesn't actually help. I followed the exact format of Buzzfeed. It is the same kind of company even has a mentor from Buzzfeed. Plenty of notable viral content. I wish I could at least see the old post but when they delete it like that no one else can review and help out. Thank you! Dani808 ( talk) 23:06, 2 August 2016 (UTC)

I was planning on making a Wikipedia page on Daniel Keem, but I got a notification that you had deleted a page with a similar title. I was wondering if this was because of notability reasons, or some other problem. Thanks, Westporter ( talk) 00:03, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
Hawkeye75 has immediately returned to their old ways post-block. In spite of advice given to them during their block, they immediately began edit-warring to their preferred version post-block, in spite of numerous requests to open discussion and in violation of BRD. They are clearly NOTHERE. Please look into their behavior and consider a longer, possibly permanent block. Regards, James ( talk/ contribs)
Everyone, again, needs to drop this - being combative, even when you think what you're saying or how you're feeling is justified, just gets peoples backs up.

Samtar talks sense. I would suggest to all that disengagement is the best plan. I know this is difficult because you work on the same articles, but please try.
As I am concerned that further actions or even comments by me regarding Hawkeye75 may be seen by him as persecution, if there are further problems, taking it to WP:AN/I is best to allow other admins to decide how to proceed. Anna Frodesiak ( talk) 01:27, 16 August 2016 (UTC)
I think that my ban was a bit unfair. I recently made a noticeboard section against someone who called another editor a "moronic fuckface" ( here) and he only received a 31 hour ban. This is extremely lightweight compared to my ban which was for "accidentally calling someone by the wrong gender". I kindly suggest you review your ban lengths in the future.

Hello,
I wanted to as user EntroDipintaGabbia about an edit to the page " /info/en/?search=Epidermal_growth_factor_receptor". That user has changed (on 14 july 2016) line a paragraph at line 22, changing "lung cancer" into "squamous-cell carcinoma of the lung". Where does that information come from? Is this information confirmed?

Happy Easter again! Taking this away from the article talk page because it's getting a bit mastodon in there - are we talking at cross purposes about WP:CLICKHERE? Saying that readers would be daft not to work it out seems like the opposite of what WP:CLICKHERE is telling us. We should be assuming some amount of daftness in the opening sentences of the article.
And sorry, I didn't mean to ignore the offline/online question, I just read it as rhetorical. I've no idea what the proportions of web to print to screenreader to offline are, and can't find any stats lying around, but sure, I assume it's minimal. MOS:SELFREF does seem to generally tend towards "write generically because content will be reused in all kinds of ways", though, rather than telling us not to worry about it because most people will be reading the website, and those that aren't can figure it out. -- McGeddon ( talk) 10:37, 1 September 2016 (UTC)

I chose to post here instead of on the block section of their talk page as one I'm not sure it would be appropriate and two I didnt want to stir more drama.

Hello, Anna Frodesiak. This message is intended to notify administrators of important changes to the protection policy.
Extended confirmed protection (also known as "30/500 protection") is a new level of page protection that only allows edits from accounts at least 30 days old and with 500 edits. The automatically assigned "extended confirmed" user right was created for this purpose. The protection level was created following this community discussion with the primary intention of enforcing various arbitration remedies that prohibited editors under the "30 days/500 edits" threshold to edit certain topic areas.
In July and August 2016, a request for comment established consensus for community use of the new protection level. Administrators are authorized to apply extended confirmed protection to combat any form of disruption (e.g. vandalism, sock puppetry, edit warring, etc.) on any topic, subject to the following conditions:
Please review
the protection policy carefully before using this new level of protection on pages. Thank you.

Thanks for uploading File:Complaint tablet to Ea-nasir - front.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
{{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}}
below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason>
with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. – Finnusertop ( talk ⋅ contribs) 23:41, 28 September 2016 (UTC)

Hi Anna,
I am just working on the article on Edward Blyden and it is very rough. I did not realize it was visible to anyone but me. Are you the editor I was in communication with last night to try to get the photo uploaded? Are you a paid editor for Wikipedia?
I do not do Wikipedia writing/editing for compensation of any kind, nor have I ever. I try to write on noteworthy people that are of interest who have not been covered previously. In the case of Norbert Vesak, for example, whose Wikipedia page I did a few years ago, I came across his name at a ballet program I attended and explored further. When I contacted the Canadian Dance Library, they said they had many newspaper articles on him in the archives. I paid them to make photocopies and send me the articles, and then did library research myself.
I really appreciate your input and your reaching out. I don't think I have ever had a wikipedia "Talk" message before and it was a little challenge for me to find the place to respond to you. : )

Thank you for your response. I read your article on Juanita Musson and really enjoyed it. I go to Sausalito regularly but have never heard of her....until now.
Yes, it is a bit of a coincidence about our joint forays into chefs/restaurateurs. It is interesting.
I appreciate you input and will be sure to reference, reference, reference!

The fact was ... that Juanita's Galley was noted for a "fabulous" breakfast, the proprietor's "unpredictable disposition", and a 40-person brawl featuring car jacks, pipes, steel bars, a fishbowl, and an ax? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Juanita Musson.

Hello,
Please note that TOTP based two-factor authentication is now available for all administrators. In light of the recent compromised accounts, you are encouraged to add this additional layer of security to your account. It may be enabled on your preferences page in the "User profile" tab under the "Basic information" section. For basic instructions on how to enable two-factor authentication, please see the developing help page for additional information. Important: Be sure to record the two-factor authentication key and the single use keys. If you lose your two factor authentication and do not have the keys, it's possible that your account will not be recoverable. Furthermore, you are encouraged to utilize a unique password and two-factor authentication for the email account associated with your Wikimedia account. This measure will assist in safeguarding your account from malicious password resets. Comments, questions, and concerns may be directed to the thread on the administrators' noticeboard.

Hi Anna Frodesiak.
A new user group, New Page Reviewer, has been created in a move to greatly improve the standard of new page patrolling. The user right can be granted by any admin at PERM. It is highly recommended that admins look beyond the simple numerical threshold and satisfy themselves that the candidates have the required skills of communication and an advanced knowledge of notability and deletion. Admins are automatically included in this user right.
It is anticipated that this user right will significantly reduce the work load of admins who patrol the performance of the patrollers. However,due to the complexity of the rollout, some rights may have been accorded that may later need to be withdrawn, so some help will still be needed to some extent when discovering wrongly applied deletion tags or inappropriate pages that escape the attention of less experienced reviewers, and above all, hasty and bitey tagging for maintenance. User warnings are available here but very often a friendly custom message works best.
If you have any questions about this user right, don't hesitate to join us at WT:NPR. (Sent to all admins). MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 13:46, 15 November 2016 (UTC)
Hi Anna Frodesiak,
As an AfC reviewer you're probably aware that a new user right has been created for patrolling new pages (you might even have been granted the right already, and admins have it automatically).
Since July there has been a very serious backlog at Special:NewPagesFeed of over 14,000 pages, by far the worst since 2011, and we need an all out drive to get this back down to just a few hundred that can be easily maintained in the future. Unlike AfC, these pages are already in mainspace, and the thought of what might be there is quite scary. There are also many good faith article creators who need a simple, gentle push to the Tea House or their pages converted to Draft rather than being deleted.
Although New Page Reviewing can occasionally be somewhat more challenging than AfC, the criteria for obtaining the right are roughly the same. The Page Curation tool is even easier to use than the Helper Script, so it's likely that most AfC reviewers already have more than enough knowledge for the task of New Page Review.
It is hoped that AfC reviewers will apply for this right at WP:PERM and lend a hand. You'll need to have read the page at WP:NPR and the new tutorial.

Wow, fair play. Just seen your comments on a certain LTA's talk page - I highly commend you for your attempts to communicate with them. We need more people like you on here, Anna Frodesiak. :-) Patient Zero talk 13:38, 29 November 2016 (UTC) |
Your talk page popped up on my watchlist today :) since I hadn't yet stopped watching your page. I just recently mentioned some disruptive shenanigans that seem to be going on at Talk:Sciences Po (a page under full protection until March 2017), and which may be well on their way to being elucidated (though having no power I've refrained from looking into it in great detail). I was summoned to that page for the first time a little less than a week ago, and I find quite a few people asking for an administrator after some testing of the waters. I've asked one specific administrator elsewhere to have a look and she has declined. Feel free to do likewise, there's some work that needs done on that page, if you or anyone still watching your page as I was wants to look into it. Best wishes, SashiRolls ( talk) 16:58, 1 December 2016 (UTC)
Hi Anna, just a quick note -
my addition to the ORCP stats is going to massively tip the averages. I note your advisement of this at the top of the page, but I wouldn't be opposed to removing me from the table or omitting me from any calculations

odd. Anyhow, you may well be right. I'll search that phone number tomorrow and see if it pops up. I just searched it and nothing. Best, Anna Frodesiak ( talk) 13:11, 8 December 2016 (UTC)
Hi Anna,
Here are a few more :-) :
Formula used (on Google) :
site:wikipedia.org intitle:"in the world" intitle:largest OR intitle:tallest OR intitle:biggest OR intitle:longest OR intitle:highest OR intitle:thinnest OR intitle:smallest OR intitle:narrowest OR intitle:oldest OR intitle:youngest OR intitle:most
+ replacing "in the world" by "world's" (and also by "worldwide" (but 0 results))
I think I have checked everything. After tracking hundreds of museums, I get to know these kinds of things...
You said : "As for World's largest cities and World's largest airlines, maybe those are okay to leave." Wouldn't it be better to replace all the "world's" by "list of" : for example "world's largest cities" : "list of largest cities" ?

Thank you for your immense contributions to resolving the edit conflict at Talk:Haredi Judaism with an absolute minimum of drama and zero unnecessary escalations. Without your help, we would surely be bickering there to this day. You've certainly earned a commendation! AlexEng( TALK) 04:06, 13 December 2016 (UTC) |
Thanks AlexEng. Hey, it was your idea that fixed the whole thing. I'm happy it all worked out. You see, this is why I avoid such articles. There's always so much digging in of the heels and such. Anyhow, all's well that ends well. Best wishes and thanks again for the star. :) Anna Frodesiak ( talk) 04:29, 13 December 2016 (UTC)

Hi Anna,
I commented on your talk page once back in late October concerning a page move [8]. Since that time the page has been covered by both Pete Forsyth and by Samir Elsharbaty (Cf. here). I wish that this were all my holiday news. Unfortunately, due to responding to an RfC (politics, law) posted here, I have been accused of "wiki-hounding" and am threatened with a block of 3 months for these edits. I do not understand and wonder what you think about them: do you see these edits as being inappropriate?
While I thought this was a good faith effort to encourage discussion, I've found myself summarily brought to AE, despite the fact that this page is not under arbcom sanctions. Would you be willing to have an independent look at what's happening there? I would truly appreciate it. — SashiRolls ( talk) 08:12, 20 December 2016 (UTC)

Greetings Anna,
I wanted to inform you of an ongoing edit war between two users (Pearson Wright and Max Tomos) on the Pirates of the Caribbean Online article.
Both users have been reverting each others edit (Related to the edit i made sometime ago) and have shown no sign of stopping.
Here are the links relevant to this issue:
1. (Full edit history of the Potco article showing the ongoing edit war) https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Pirates_of_the_Caribbean_Online&action=history
2. (Link showing the edit i made to said article a long while back for reference) https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Pirates_of_the_Caribbean_Online&diff=prev&oldid=753430175
3. (My talk page with the message both users left) 1. Pearson Wright's reply: [9] 2. Max Tomos's reply: [10]
Both users (As mentioned above) replied to my talk page each making their own claim that the other was wrong (Essentially trying to pin the blame on the other). — Preceding unsigned comment added by AryaTargaryen ( talk • contribs) 09:34, 22 December 2016 (UTC)
Is there anyway you can help put an end to this?

The Editor of the Week initiative has been recognizing editors since 2013 for their hard work and dedication. Editing Wikipedia can be disheartening and tedious at times; the weekly Editor of the Week award lets its recipients know that their positive behaviour and collaborative spirit is appreciated. The response from the honorees has been enthusiastic and thankful.
The list of nominees is running short, and so new nominations are needed for consideration. Have you come across someone in your editing circle who deserves a pat on the back for improving article prose regularly, making it easier to understand? Or perhaps someone has stepped in to mediate a contentious dispute, and did an excellent job. Do you know someone who hasn't received many accolades and is deserving of greater renown? Is there an editor who does lots of little tasks well, such as cleaning up citations?
Please help us thank editors who display sustained patterns of excellence, working tirelessly in the background out of the spotlight, by submitting your nomination for Editor of the Week today!
In addition, the WikiProject is seeking a new facilitator/coordinator to handle the logistics of the award. Please contact L235 if you are interested in helping with the logistics of running the award in any capacity. Remove your name from here to unsubscribe from further EotW-related messages.

Hi Anna,
I came across this user's edits and saw that you had recently warned them about their disruptive behavior. I'm not sure if they are still adding those images to their edits, but I'm finding that the mass majority of their edits are still a bit questionable; while they seem to be grammatically improving articles, some of their edits may still contradict WP:MOS guidelines. I thought about going to WP:ANI but I also thought that it'd be better to address this to an admin who's already spoken with them. Could I ask that you keep a closer eye on this user's edits? Thanks.
(Note: I would also post this on Yamla's talkpage, since they also had questioned their edits, but it is currently semi-protected).

I see that you want to speak to me about my editing. When I reviewed my changes, I can see that some of my edits have snowmen on them and I think I know why. Every time I make a good edit in some long article, it freezes for 10 seconds and something that I edited gets all messed up so I had to start all over again or make some edits in a smaller article. I don't make a lot of sense sometimes but I think you know what I mean. I hope. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Heididoerr061 ( talk • contribs) 01:46, 31 December 2016 (UTC)
