how do I talk to Drmies hes being an op Mediocremathematician (talk) 02:06, 3 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You could try polite conversation, like an adult. Drmies (talk) 13:31, 3 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

WHY IS WIKIPEDIA SO HARD TO USE anyways the article on “andrea e kirkwood” i wanted to point out how hes just deleting stuff for no reason and even if its wrong hes being lazy by deleting it instead of fixing it Mediocremathematician (talk) 02:08, 3 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It is not my job to fix the problems you caused. If you don’t understand biographical information needs secondary sourcing, then maybe this isn’t the place for you. You were given a big, pink notice every time you clicked “edit”. Drmies (talk) 13:32, 3 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• (talk page stalker) @Mediocremathematician: you should be aware that Drmies is such an experienced and competent editor that the community here has elected to make him an admin. If he is ‘being an op’, then rest assured that you are doing something wrong. You would do much better by asking his advice on how to proceed, versus arguing/railing against him. ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants Tell me all about it. 18:30, 3 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    • What’s an “op”? — Euryalus (talk) 19:47, 3 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    • You know, I actually do get called ‘unc’ a lot… Sometimes it’s clearly a term of endearment, and sometimes it’s clearly used quite sarcastically.
    • I used to think that my facility with generational slang was unmatched, having seamlessly used Boomer, Gen-X, Millennial and Gen-Z slang.But then, just a few weeks ago, my 12yo turned to me out of nowhere as we were walking home from the grocery store and gravely intoned “six seven” as if he were revealing the secrets of the universe to me and I would immediately understand and appreciate the gravitas of that moment. I give up. I accept my fate as an old man who’s no longer with it. I will henceforth listen to my music at a moderate volume and angrily demand those damned kids stay off my lawn. ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants Tell me all about it. 19:47, 3 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Michael Scanlan (priest) died 2017. What do you think of this section: Michael Scanlan (priest)#Sex abuse scandals? Latest restore. Thank you! Adakiko (talk) 20:54, 17 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• What do you want me to think? I’m more troubled by the hagiographical content of the rest of the article. Drmies (talk) 13:40, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
• “Ongoing” needs an “as of”, and the title of that source (no. 13 in the current version, Lopez vs. Antoninus) is incorrect; moreover, I don’t believe such content should be cited to primary sources. Drmies (talk) 14:04, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Wow! Thanks for fixing it. I was more concerned with the scandals section. Single topic brain, I suppose. It would have taken me days to do what you did in 16 minutes? I am humbled! Do you happen to have a time machine or something? 100k GPUs tied into your brain? Thanks again! Adakiko (talk) 01:22, 20 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    • Adakiko, it’s all in a day’s work–a User:Sitush joke, and Sitush knows how to prune. I’ve done this long enough, and by now I’ve lost my patience for bullshit–so much in that page was bullshit, sourced to the guy’s autobiography. We don’t need to be gentle there. I haven’t done much with the section you were concerned with; I think you should try to find something better for that second paragraph, but perhaps all of it is properly sourced in that Pillar article. Good luck, Drmies (talk) 14:37, 20 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Today I have three biographies on the main page, in memory, miss a fourth one, nominated a fifth, that means little time for other matters. My places now include La Scala, – see music, Verdi three times, and twice in my story! — Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:35, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Look, today’s image, – she “portrayed” herself with her husband at the end of the table, – would have been good for Thanksgiving 😉 —Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:59, 24 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Drmies, thanks for taking a look at the Draft:Clone (company) and adding the notability tag.

I understand that the current sourcing isn’t sufficient — I’m still in the process of collecting additional independent references. Quick question: would you recommend that I move this to my user space and keep working there, or is it fine to continue expanding the draft where it is while I gather more sources? Alexandra Goncharik ^–sms– 16:54, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Hey–no, it’s fine where it is: that’s exactly what draft space is for. I left that note/tag not to disfigure but to draw your attention to what might happen if you submit quickly–many submit quickly and sometimes foolishly, but I see now that this is not your first rodeo; feel free to remove that tag, and consider whether “Projects” on your page needs updating. 😉 Drmies (talk) 16:57, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  Thanks, Drmies — I’ll leave the draft where it is and focus on expanding it with stronger independent sources before considering submission. 🙂 Alexandra Goncharik ^–sms– 17:41, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

We have a disruptive editor, User:Cenation Dog, repeatedly making edits at AJ Styles in which they are not only purposely adding non-words (appearanced) but making unsourced claims of the subject using slurs against homosexuals. Their edit summaries in doing this state “I feel like it’s better this way.” They’re also mass deleting chunks of other articles with the only edit summary being “Making it more simple.” Please look into this if able. Thanks. NJZombie (talk) 22:06, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Hey–OK first of all I gotta say that rasslin is pretty stupid, isn’t it. Someone actually prayed to God to win some match? Couldn’t he just have put in a request to management? I p-blocked them from that article: those edits were stupid. I’m not sure if I should revdel that stuff all the way at the bottom; perhaps some other admin can have a look. It’s unverified too, but I can’t rightly tell, after only one cup of coffee, whether that makes it more or less of a candidate for revdeletion. Tamzin, are you still with us? I know you love the WWE–do you have an opinion? Drmies (talk) 14:05, 20 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

While I’m here: I created Adhirasam during that doughnut drive that you and CoM were running. I just found another article on the same topic Ariselu (using the transliteration from Telugu as opposed to my Tamil). Probably need to be merged, my title is more common in Indian English while the other article is older. Some fixing needed, Doc! —SpacemanSpiff 04:04, 26 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Bro you’re going to leave that for me? CoM–that was ten, fifteen years ago! Well I’ll have a look, but I’m sleuthing something right now. Good to see you Spiffy. You’re the best. Drmies (talk) 19:47, 26 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Drmies.

Today when I was looking at the Syrian wikipedia page (I was logged out) I guess I accidentally clicked something by accident and a ban message showed up. It said you enforced the ban and it expired in three days. The reason for this was “ Long-term abuse: active LTA on this range, very few useful edits, and talk page abuse“.

What I am confused about is that I have never edited wikipedia on my phone IP address. I was on cell data when this happened. I have used talk pages maybe twice in my life (the only one I remember is thanking someone for correcting my work ) and I have only made some edits, all in this account and not my IP. I also don’t know what LTA means.

Can you tell me when this ban was made? If it was made before March, it was probably the guy who owned my number before. (He hasn’t changed his number with anyone so I’ve been talking to his aunt about how this isn’t the correct number and that her nephew is not on the other side of the screen.) If it was made after march i have no clue what it is. If possible please also show or redirect the talk page that this abuse apparently happened.

Thank you for being a great part of Wikipedia and enforcing rules and banning others who don’t follow the rules! Only i don’t know who didn’t follow them. Thanks for your help Finalities (talk) 04:54, 28 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• It was probably a block, not a ban, and IP addresses change. Has nothing to do with a phone number (so you can talk to your aunt about other, more important things)–and you are editing now, logged in, so it doesn’t really affect you, right? For LTA, see Wikipedia:Long-term abuse. Drmies (talk) 22:34, 28 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
