Edit notice for Global sysops/Vote

Resolved. Sitenotice added and working — Dferg (talk) 14:39, 15 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

After a good suggestion on the talk page I made a rough edit notice for the global sysops vote page so that people can see the requirements again. If someone could someone transclude Template:Gsvote_editnotice to MediaWiki:Editnotice-0-Global_sysops-Vote (I think thats the right page) that would be great :) If you see anything that you'd like to clean up on the notice feel free.

Done - Tested it and works fine for me. Please advice if further help is needed. — Dferg (talk) 11:09, 13 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Help

Resolved. Deferred to other project. Pmlineditor ∞ 11:05, 23 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Excuse my English and if this is not the place, I need someone to block an IP in the Wiki-pt that is spamming article pt:José Serra. GRS73 06:07, 15 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Olà GRS73. The Portuguese Wikipedia has its own active sysops (see list), you should be contacting them for things like this. There is also an administrators' noticeboard on ptwiki where you can ask for blocks. Meta sysops/bureaucrats have not the ability to block people across other projects. If one day you need administrator asistance, it it an emergency and no local sysop is around, you can post on vandalism reports. Cumprimentos, — Dferg (talk) 11:44, 15 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Question about a template

Resolved.

Hi everyone. I've not been as active as I was in the past. Something came up that I don't understand. Someone here put the "^{[citation needed]}" template on my vote on the Wiktionary logo vote page. It looks like it somehow alters my vote. Is this true, or is the inclusion of that template merely a successful baiting. --Connel MacKenzie 20:19, 21 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

He did not "put the template on [your] vote", he put it as his comment on your vote. There's nothing wrong with that. If someone uses false reasoning in their vote, there's no problem pointing out issues with that reasoning, because others might be convinced by your vote.

Protect template

Resolved. Fully protected. Pmlineditor ∞ 06:12, 24 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, please fully protect Template:User language, as it is a high-risk template. Thanks, --Church of emacs talk 18:34, 23 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
