Q1088552[edit]

Están modificando la iglesia católica global a kostyol, creando un caos con enlaces antiguos, dada la importancia del enlace. Verpetino (talk) 20:39, 16 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Verpetino: Please try to explain your request. Machine-translation of your request does not make sense for me. --Ameisenigel (talk) 22:00, 23 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@Ameisenigel: In 4 dic 2022 Catholic church building, now is kostyol - name of the Catholic church building in Eastern Europe. Many links have become wrong. I don't think the change is right --Verpetino (talk) 22:52, 23 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I do not know about which change your are talking, but if it is wrong you can just undo the edit. I do not see a need for an admin here. --Ameisenigel (talk) 06:20, 25 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Report concerning User:北極企鵝觀賞團[edit]

北極企鵝觀賞團 (talk • contribs • deleted contribs • logs • filter log • block user • block log • SUL (for IP: GUC)) — Reasons: he keep reverting various inter-wikipedia links about Hong Kong politics without considering the content change in various wikipedia articles.

Q7490311 (1970s Hong Kong student protests) already have inter-wikipedia links, but he keep reverting it.

Q6540837 (Liberal elite) has Chinese term, as seen on Chinese Wikipedia (左膠一詞也套用於世界各地的左派，特別是西方右派民粹主義崛起後，左翼成為了右翼及保守派攻擊、嘲諷及批判的對象，「左膠」引起了共鳴，例如，2015年歐洲移民危機急劇惡化後，一些西方國家的左翼及自由派政治人物和民間社會運動人士歡迎難民或移民湧入自己國家定居，且無視國民安全（尤其是婦女安全）、國家安全和身份認同受到威脅，被香港媒體及網絡形容為「左膠」), but he keep separating to Q65045683.

Q7120278 (United front in Hong Kong) already incorporate content about "Indigenous Communists in Hong Kong", but he keep reverting it.

Q106467281 (Liberalism in Hong Kong) already incorporate content about "Mild democratic camp", but he keep separating to Q10877457. (In contrast, he updated his user page...)

Q23051440 (Socialism in Hong Kong) already incorporate content about "Radical democratic camp", as the political parties listed are the same, but he keep separating to Q15920489. UU (talk) 11:07, 18 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

(non-admin comment) This appears to be a content dispute regarding whether some closely related concepts should be separated or merged, for example, whether items about political ideologies should be kept separate from items about political coalitions. I don't think WD:AN is the best place to discuss the content dispute. Stevenliuyi (talk) 07:29, 19 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • But why you keep reverting Q7120278? "United front in Hong Kong" is the same as "Indigenous Communists in Hong Kong" (香港親共主義). UU (talk) 10:28, 20 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • For reference, Q85883730 "United front in Taiwan" has the same content as "臺灣親中共派". Therefore, User:北極企鵝觀賞團`s reverting action about "United front" articles is inappropriate as he didn`t read those articles nor realize the English and Chinese contents are the same.

Separatism in Russia page links (Q116045048 and Q4416514)[edit]

An article dedicated to Separatism in Russia (Q116045048) has been created so I think it should be linked on the RU wiki, instead of the Hypothetical dissolution of Russia (Q28665968), which is a separate article on the RU wiki Dictatorialkarelian (talk) 14:41, 21 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Block evasion, Alec Smithson[edit]

This is globally-locked long-term hoax/nuisance editor Alec Smithson (blocked on en.wp for that reason). As usual with this user, not one single word he says/writes can be trusted, so his edits should probably be reviewed (or simply zapped?). Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 08:37, 22 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I zapped some edits, but he has used uncountable IPs in Wikidata, so he has lot of undetected edits as well under different IPs Estopedist1 (talk) 04:35, 23 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Anon reverts[edit]

Hi. I've recently had my completely legitimate edits reverted several times by anon editors.([1], [2], [3], [4]) Is this something ordinary here? --TadejM (talk) 21:29, 24 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Sem-protection for Q381397[edit]

Some IP user and newly registered tried to delete info about person's death in 1994, page should be semi-protected, and maybe ban/warning is needed for ‎ יעס749 (talk • contribs • deleted contribs • logs • filter log • block user • block log • SUL (for IP: GUC)). windewrix (talk) 06:00, 26 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  • This strikes me as being oddly specific, possibly someone who just wants some privacy? I'll leave a message to the user(s). Infrastruktur (talk)
  • The IP added the alias " הרבי שליט"א מלך המשיח" though, that looks like it might be vandalism, if anyone speaks hebrew here? Infrastruktur (talk) 07:55, 27 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Report concerning User:Muhammedola[edit]

Muhammedola (talk • contribs • deleted contribs • logs • filter log • block user • block log • SUL (for IP: GUC)) — Reasons: Besides being warned two times about the recreation of items and going on with recreating deleted items, they removed the sitelink to jp.wikipedia and added it to a completely unrelated item to prevent this item from being deleted because of the lack of notability.

Unblock of 2400:4052:7204:bd00:d495:5fed:2115:1e81[edit]

Vandalism of Q3937931 and Q60839013[edit]

User:Epicamused keeps merging these two items (Rivideo (Q3937931) and Mediaset Infinity (Q60839013)) when they're clearly separate entities. According to the Wikipedia pages (which themselves have experienced vandalism and attempts at revisionist history), the first is a streaming service opened in 2007 and closed in 2010, and the second is a streaming service that replaced the previous one.

Rivideo (Q3937931) has been vandalised before by IPs, and action was taken at that time. This time it's a registered user. Since this smells of a continued corporate editing campaign, I think their other edits should be looked into as well. --Veikk0.ma (talk) --Veikk0.ma (talk) 16:26, 28 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
