Mira Gonzalez
Can I remove the AfD notice on the Mira Gonzalez page?--Tomwsulcer (talk) 21:56, 22 July 2014 (UTC)
 * I've removed it now, thanks for bringing it up. The script I used to close the AfD discussion didn't remove it and I didn't notice! ~ mazca  talk 22:41, 22 July 2014 (UTC)

Thank you for finally closing that TfD. It has been agonizing waiting for a closing decision for over three weeks. CRRays Head90 | #RaysUp 23:08, 22 July 2014 (UTC)
 * No problem. I'm not a regular discussion closer at TfD, but ran across it and decided something needed to be done about that discussion... I think the fact that several weeks' worth of wandering administrators hadn't done anything about it suggests just how little consensus there was! Best wishes. ~ mazca  talk 08:34, 23 July 2014 (UTC)

Requesting rollback
The user Helmoony is mass-removing "Tunisian arabic" in articles that was in place since several months. after the debate in Tunisia portal in september, an admin finally decided to grant the mention of Tunisian arabic for the names of people and places. Things were so settled since then, but the user Helmoony is recently removing all the mentions, could you please do something about it ? Thank you.Zangouang (talk) 16:20, 5 January 2016 (UTC)

Expanding April Malmsteen page back to full article
Hi Mazca,

I see you made a decision back in 2013 for the April Malmsteen article to become a redirect to the Yngwie Malmsteen page. April has become far more prominent in the time since then - can we work towards giving her a full article? Seeing as April Malmsteen and Yngwie Malmsteen aren't the same person, I think it makes sense. Thanks. Congobongoman (talk) 16:38, 29 October 2016 (UTC)

Two-Factor Authentication now available for admins
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.

A new user right for New Page Patrollers
Hi Mazca.

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) 13:47, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

 * Thanks, fixed. I'll miss my vintage 90's HTML. ~ mazca  talk 22:58, 5 May 2018 (UTC)


 * Thanks! By the way, there's no apostrophe before the "s" in decades; use 1990s or '90s ... Cheers! —Anomalocaris (talk) 06:56, 10 May 2018 (UTC)

Suhai Aziz Talpur
Hi Mazca, I've noticed that you're the admin that closed Articles for deletion/Suhai Aziz Talpur (2nd nomination) as delete. This officer has now received significant worldwide coverage for her heroics during the 2018 Karachi Chinese consulate attack, see Google News. I believe she now meets WP:GNG and the article should be restored. Best regards, -Zanhe (talk) 04:39, 26 November 2018 (UTC)


 * I just noticed that you've been inactive recently, so I submitted a deletion review here. Cheers, -Zanhe (talk) 04:57, 26 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi Zanhe, I'm actually around but doing far more reading than editing at the moment - I've restored the article straight away; it obviously needs updating since April with the new information, but the state it was in at the time of deletion was far from awful. As long as you or others can integrate some of this new content and update it soon, then she certainly seems very much notable now. Thanks! ~ mazca  talk 09:50, 26 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much. The article has been significantly updated. Cheers, -Zanhe (talk) 01:21, 27 November 2018 (UTC)

Possible sockpuppet
Hello, these contributions seem very similar to User:Stoneh18 whom you blocked. Please take a look when convenient, unless someone has already done so. MPS1992 (talk) 18:59, 21 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks . Looks very likely, I've blocked and opened another SPI. Always happy to help with these in future. ~ mazca  talk 21:41, 21 December 2019 (UTC)
