How we will see unregistered users
Hi!

You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.

When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.

Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.

If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.

We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.

Thank you. /Johan (WMF)

Hi Tawker, can I ask you what was the reason for deleting the article above? Thank you — Preceding unsigned comment added by Немања 93 (talk • contribs) 19:29, 23 April 2022 (UTC)
 * The article was nominated per Criteria_for_speedy_deletion as self-promotion/advertising. If you'd like to clean up the article to not reflect as such I can restore to your userspace if you'd like. -- Tawker (talk) 03:38, 24 April 2022 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Medventlogo.gif
Thanks for uploading File:Medventlogo.gif. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:15, 19 December 2022 (UTC)

Administrative permissions and inactivity reminder
This is a reminder that established policy provides for removal of the administrative permissions of users who have made fewer than 100 edits over a 60-month period. You are receiving this annual reminder since you have averaged less than 50 edits per year over the last 5 years.Inactive administrators are encouraged to reengage with the project in earnest rather than to make token edits to avoid loss of administrative permissions. Resources and support for reengaging with the project are available at WikiProject Editor Retention/administrators. If you do not intend to be engaged with the project in the foreseeable future, please consider voluntarily resigning your administrative permissions by making a request at the bureaucrats' noticeboard.Thank you for your past contributions to the project. —&thinsp;JJMC89 bot 00:26, 1 January 2023 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of File:SeaSpanBarge.jpg


The file File:SeaSpanBarge.jpg has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Unused, low-res, no obvious use."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. --Minorax &laquo;&brvbar;talk&brvbar;&raquo; 07:48, 14 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the tag - I just deleted it to make it easy. -- Tawker (talk) 01:01, 16 January 2023 (UTC)

Page deleted
Hello, I’m new to wiki as an editor. I’m trying to get understanding as to why a page I made was deleted? I followed the steps and made sure i did citations for links and information that was posted. Editor0816 (talk) 18:17, 17 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Hi Editor0816 and welcome. The article was requested for deletion following Not a web host policy.  If you'd like I can restore the draft somewhere in your user space and you could submit via the Articles for creation process although I'd suggest ensuring that notability is met. Articles generally belong in the article space not under a User: page.  If you have any further questions or would like me to restore to assist with going thru articles for creation please advise. -- Tawker (talk) 00:50, 18 January 2023 (UTC)
