Request for IP block
Dear admin, I noticed that the IP 2.25.225.184 has repeatedly vandalized the article Battle of Salamis during the last two days with nonsensical text. Consequently, I suggest an IP block. Bests, --Arbraxan (talk) 13:41, 9 March 2014 (UTC)
 * It looks like only 2 edits. If it reoccurs with greater frequency it might be worth it, but not at this point. --After Midnight 0001 16:00, 9 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your reply. I was wondering, what is the number of vandal edits after which it is usual to take action? (i.e. what is the threshold beyond which I should bother you again?) --Arbraxan (talk) 19:11, 11 March 2014 (UTC)

Hello! Could you delete or rename this file, because it locally overwrites ? Thank you, best regards. --79.33.136.211 (talk) 22:10, 11 March 2014 (UTC)
 * FYI, you are not the only admin to have received this request and there are a couple of complicating issues. I have started a discussion at Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive832 about this request if you are interested in contributing. --Allen3 talk 22:27, 11 March 2014 (UTC)

Hi
Hi, would there be a chance for you to delete the article 22nd Presidium of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, and move the 22nd Politburo of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union to the 22nd Presidium [...] article when you're finished? The reason being that the Politburo was named Presidium from 1952 to 1966 (my mistake). Anyhow, If you could fix this I would be very pleased. --TIAYN (talk) 09:56, 21 March 2014 (UTC)

Help?
Hello! I am very new here (I wrote a paper on how accurate Wikipedia is and the sheer accuracy of something editable by everyone amazed me and made me want to get involved) I was hoping to maybe translate articles for the Japanese Wiki and also expand and clean up some in English (I am a native English speaker but I started learning Japanese very early on and am fluent; I noticed for example https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concert_of_Europe is a kind of major article yet has no entry on the Japanese Wiki) but I don't really know how stuff works. I noticed you were an admin, could you either explain to me how to translate an article (I obviously should not edit the article on the English Wiki, do you know of any button specifically for translation?) or point me to a tutorial? Or do I just create it on the Japanese Wiki? Also, do you know of any good tutorials on how Wikipedia's code works as I can code in many languages (Python, HTML, CSS, C++, PHP) but I have no idea what Wikipedia's editor uses. Is it just HTML?

 * EDIT - I have realized translating articles from Japanese to English might be better do you know like how to get involved like what do and stuff? Sorry to trouble you!
