publictestwiki vandal issue

Take a look at https://publictestwiki.com/wiki/Special:Undelete?target=Talk%3ATranslating_test%2Ffi (for the same reason, I have activated a Guidance filter over there). Codename Norte 🤔 talk 18:00, 12 March 2024 (UTC)

Question

are my gadgets good?

Self trout and on behalf of the steward-team

For accidentally granting CheckUser permissions to an alternate account of Rafdodo, I have slapped myself with a wet trout. Justarandomamerican (talk) 12:39, 1 April 2024 (UTC)

Trouted for granting CheckUser permissions to an alternate account

Can happen, fortunately it was not used by him, I see. On behalf of the steward-team: the matching trout. Drummingman (talk) 14:03, 1 April 2024 (UTC)

No worries at all Justa, we all have "those" days. X (talk + contribs) 14:53, 1 April 2024 (UTC)

On behalf of myself, you are forgiven. Sav • ( Edits | Talk ) 01:26, 11 April 2024 (UTC)

Checkuser

I saw you granted yourself CU awhile ago. Are you still using it? Thank you, X (talk + contribs) 12:06, 22 April 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know. Justarandomamerican (talk) 21:44, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

Replace text

• Old text 1: User:Saint
  
• Old text 2: User talk:Saint
• New text 1: User:Jody
  
• New text 2: User talk:Jody

And again, thanks for renaming my account! Jody (talk) 00:56, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

 Both queued. Justarandomamerican (talk) 01:02, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

Here's another request:

• Old text: {{user rights
• New text: {{user groups

Good luck! Jody (talk) 13:01, 15 May 2024 (UTC)

 Done, I believe. I'll write and pull request some config settings that allow stewards to add the ReplaceText right to others at their discretion. Justarandomamerican (talk) 13:10, 15 May 2024 (UTC)

Actually, perhaps I won't. It's likely to get objected to because you would be able to edit Steward protected pages without being a Steward. Justarandomamerican (talk) 13:23, 15 May 2024 (UTC)

About test page 2 that I deleted

Apologies if I started this with a racial slur (this is only to test my test filter). Next time I should think twice. Codename Noreste 🤔 Talk 19:29, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

No worries. Just be careful to not include those in a creation/deletion summary. Justarandomamerican (talk) 19:32, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

Hi

Hi Justa! Long time no see. Interesting to have someone insult me after I just got back from a wikibreak. (LOL) X (talk + contribs) 20:44, 25 June 2024 (UTC)

That was interesting. Justarandomamerican (talk) 20:45, 25 June 2024 (UTC)

hi

are you site owner? Peppapig (talk) 16:21, 27 July 2024 (UTC)

I am not. I am merely a system administrator and Steward who makes sure the wiki runs smoothly. Justarandomamerican (talk) 16:23, 27 July 2024 (UTC)

Bureaucrat

Hi. Thank you for granting me sysop rights. Could you please instruct me on how to request bureaucrat permissions? _{I've already found it on Test Wiki:Bureaucrat policy}. By the way, what is the purpose of providing links to other accounts (Miraheze, Wikimedia, etc.) on RfP? Do they have any impact on user trust? Do they prove user experience? Regards, BZPN (talk) 20:23, 2 September 2024 (UTC)

They serve to prove that you are who you say you are, and therefore do have somewhat of an impact on user trust if you have advanced rights elsewhere. Justarandomamerican (talk) 22:10, 2 September 2024 (UTC)

A Soanpapdi for you!

	Soanpapdi for you!
	Hi,Justa, I hope you're doing well, I really appreciate you're work as stewards and you're activities are outstanding, I happy to give you Soanpapdi, this sweet is very dilicious and the sweet is most popular than other sweet in India. ---kítєrєtѕu•[@píng mє] 08:06, 16 September 2024 (UTC)

DodoMan

Hello, Justarandomamerican. I was wondering if you could perform this certain action for me to add grace periods on DodoMan's rights. They now have 14 days (2 weeks) left before their rights supposedly expire on November 23^rd. All you need to do is add this code to each of their rights: 10:33 November 23 UTC. Thank you so much!

Requesting bureaucrat

Hi Justa, I'm thinking about requesting bureaucrat permissions here so I can help grant requests for rights and also mass-delete pages. Since I have to have the approval of two stewards before asking, I thought I would ask you about this and get your opinion on it. Piccadilly (My Contribs | My Messages) 18:56, 17 December 2024 (UTC)

Due to you're recent sockpuppeting on other projects this would receive an oppose from me, you have shown 0 improvement in you're recent behavior (if anything (a reblock would be an appropriate action moving forward( Cocopuff2018 (talk) 19:10, 17 December 2024 (UTC)

I know I need to improve my behavior on Wikimedia by not evading my global lock. However, I'm not sure why that would weigh into decisions here, where I have been doing my best to stay out of trouble. Piccadilly (My Contribs | My Messages) 19:16, 17 December 2024 (UTC)

This talk page message is not a community discussion, and the use of terms like “oppose” aren’t applicable. Please let Justa respond in his capacity as a steward and voice your concerns to him privately if you disagree.

I also cannot help but laugh about the hypocrisy you exhibit when talking about cross-wiki abuse, but that is neither here nor there. - X (talk + contribs) 19:27, 17 December 2024 (UTC)

I can see that my actions on other wikis does weigh into whether I can be trusted here, and I probably should have realized that way sooner. I won't make any more Wikimedia accounts. Piccadilly (My Contribs | My Messages) 19:31, 17 December 2024 (UTC)

Hi, I am not going to approve your request at this time due to cross wiki abuse. I would not be in favor of a block at this time because it's not really that severe (ban evasion without anything else at play like vandalism), but we'll see how it goes.
