A cupcake for you!

 * Thank you! You weren't causing any major harm, but if that had gone on for thousands of edits, someone would have eventually taken harsher action. Suffusion of Yellow (talk) 22:46, 30 April 2024 (UTC)

It's about an update to a private filter's string and I sent you a list of some LTA ranges. Codename Noreste 🤔  La Suma  18:43, 4 May 2024 (UTC)

RFA2024 update: phase I concluded, phase II begins
Hi there! Phase I of the Requests for adminship/2024 review has concluded, with several impactful changes gaining community consensus and proceeding to various stages of implementation. Some proposals will be implemented in full outright; others will be discussed at phase II before being implemented; and still others will proceed on a trial basis before being brought to phase II. The following proposals have gained consensus:

See the project page for a full list of proposals and their outcomes. A huge thank-you to everyone who has participated so far :) looking forward to seeing lots of hard work become a reality in phase II. theleekycauldron (talk), via MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 08:09, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Proposals 2 and 9b (phase II discussion): Add a reminder of civility norms at RfA and Require links for claims of specific policy violations
 * Proposal 3b (in trial): Make the first two days discussion-only
 * Proposal 13 (in trial): Admin elections
 * Proposal 14 (implemented): Suffrage requirements
 * Proposals 16 and 16c (phase II discussion): Allow the community to initiate recall RfAs and Community recall process based on dewiki
 * Proposal 17 (phase II discussion): Have named Admins/crats to monitor infractions
 * Proposal 24 (phase II discussion): Provide better mentoring for becoming an admin and the RfA process
 * Proposal 25 (implemented): Require nominees to be extended confirmed

A barnstar for you!

Projectspace Redirect blanking
Hi Suffusion of Yellow, I just saw this thread and was actually surprised that this edit was not picked up by any filter. I was wondering if that can be changed. (I'm asking you directly instead of posting at WP:EF/R since you created ) Nobody  ( talk ) 09:18, 21 May 2024 (UTC)


 * Well, I created that three years ago, but my own notes say that without the throttle, there are so many FPs [the] log is hard to pick through. Not sure if this is worth the trouble for non-reader-facing material. If they do it a few times, then stop, that's not a big deal, just revert and warn. If they go on a "spree", the filter will stop them. Suffusion of Yellow (talk) 18:51, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
 * I assumed there was something like that. My idea was that a log only filter like: could give me some hits to look at, but not sure if it's worth the trouble.  Nobody  ( talk ) 05:36, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Actually, the recent changes "filters" can do this. Try something like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:RecentChanges?userExpLevel=unregistered%3Bnewcomer&hidebots=1&hidenewpages=1&hidecategorization=1&hideWikibase=1&hidelog=1&hidenewuserlog=1&namespace=4%3B5%3B14%3B15&tagfilter=mw-removed-redirect&limit=100&days=30&urlversion=2. On the one hand, except for a single MfD, every edit was reverted. On the other, only 36 edits in one month. Suffusion of Yellow (talk) 18:24, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
 * I did not know Recent changes was flexible enought to do this. I changed Category to Help Namespace in your link and it works just like a log filter. I'll keep my eyes on this and fix alse false positives for my code. But if I can fix all false positives then I'll probably request a disallow filter for this. Nobody  ( talk ) 05:55, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
 * I'm keeping the code at User:1AmNobody24/Projectspace Redirect blanking. If you have any improvements feel free to add them. Nobody  ( talk ) 07:03, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Hi Suffusion of Yellow, I need some help adding some improvements to this. If you have time could you see if the things here are possible to add? Thanks Nobody  ( talk ) 15:09, 15 July 2024 (UTC)

Alt tag
I think you might have missed the alt tag for your 9th account. If this belongs to you, I suggest adding it when you can. The Night Watch    (talk)   23:53, 2 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Urgh, thanks. At least I wasn't autoblocked this time. Suffusion of Yellow (talk) 23:56, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

iOS app
I noticed your edit here. I only use the app on an android phone but I'm invested in making sure the app is usable on both platforms. I'm pinging, who will hopefully be able to figure what's going on here. Clovermoss 🍀 (talk) 19:22, 6 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Thanks. I'm kind of burned out by the whole WP:THEYCANTHEARYOU thing and don't want to do a huge amount of testing. I don't even use these apps except to find out what other people are experiencing, and almost never use iOS. But for JTanner's benefit, I'm describing the behavior of a fresh install of app version 7.5.1 (3601) on an iPad Air 2, iOS version 15.8. Suffusion of Yellow (talk) 19:36, 6 June 2024 (UTC)

FilterDebugger.js
Thank you so much for writing this. It's quickly becoming one of my favorite user scripts. Would you be open to changing the "debug" menu links to be capitalized? It would be the only lowercase item in my entire Tools menu. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 22:54, 11 June 2024 (UTC)


 * ✅. I should test for more than five seconds in skins other than Monobook, apparently. Suffusion of Yellow (talk) 20:22, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks! I appreciate you tweaking this. It looks like there's one more "debug" on Special:AbuseLog. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 01:03, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Whoops, done! Suffusion of Yellow (talk) 19:21, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

Question
Why did you trigger edit filter? I trying to raise awareness for erradication of gender roles, forced erradication at that. 216.145.66.231 (talk) 02:18, 30 June 2024 (UTC)


 * This is about this attempted edit, I assume? Wikipedia aspires to the neutral point of view. If you think something is idiotic or evil, you're entitled to your opinion, but an encyclopedia article is not the place to share it. Suffusion of Yellow (talk) 23:53, 2 July 2024 (UTC)


 * I'm sorry for using Wikipedia for it, I don't use social media. Wikipedia is like the only way I can spread awareness and make it go viral. Poe.com now says "I'm sorry, but I do not feel comfortable" when asking it many of the questions I could before. Reddit abandons me. 216.145.66.231 (talk) 14:56, 7 July 2024 (UTC)

Some false positives on 1310
I was checking through 's log and found some false positives after debugging some of its entries (Special:AbuseLog/38129537 [reverting vandalism by an IP address using Ultraviolet] and Special:AbuseLog/38111302 [doesn't appear to be a Trump felon meme but some kind of article expansion] for example). I would recommend adding  boundaries on lines 3 and 4, and exclude reverts with this new code I suggested: page_namespace == 0 & !contains_any(user_groups, "extendedconfirmed", "sysop", "bot") & (   felon := "\bfelon\b|\b34\b|convicted|guilty";    added_lines irlike "\btrump\b" &    added_lines irlike felon &    !(removed_lines irlike felon) &    !summary irlike "\b(revert|rv|undid|undo|restor)" ) Alternatively, if the felon meme has died down significantly, you might want to consider disabling 1310. Thank you. Codename Noreste 🤔  Talk  23:38, 1 July 2024 (UTC)


 * Yep. Good fixes, but I don't think a filter is needed anymore. Thanks. Suffusion of Yellow (talk) 23:48, 2 July 2024 (UTC)
