Template:Did you know nominations/We Built This Glee Club

SanAnMan, I wanted to let you know that I just nominated We Built This Glee Club to be included in the main page's "Did You Know" section. As nominator, I'm responsible for supplying the quid pro quo review (because I have more than five nominations under my belt); I did include myself as a "creator" in addition to you because of my work on the Plot and Production sections and the general copyediting—the way DYK works, anyone who has made significant contributions to the article before its nomination is included as a "creator" even if they didn't make the first edits.

If you have any other ideas for a "hook", please feel free to suggest them. The rules require that the hook must be shorter than 200 characters (including spaces) and all the facts in it must be cited inline, no later than the end of the sentence in which the fact appears. I'll be happy to answer any questions you may have. At some point, an independent reviewer will review the nomination, which will either result in approval or in a request to modify the article and/or hook so it meets all the relevant DYK criteria. I've had a lot of experience in the DYK space, so I don't anticipate any significant issues beyond those I've already noted in the nomination header. BlueMoonset (talk) 23:18, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

Mistaken block

Hello SanAnMan. While conducting a sockpuppetry investigation, I made the mistake of clicking the block button on your account instead of the intended target. I unblocked your account as soon as I realized my mistake, but unfortunately, there isn't anything I can do except explaining my mistake in the unblock message. This isn't a mistake I'm prone to making, and I am terribly sorry for spoiling your previously clean block log! Embarrassedly ​—DoRD (talk)​ 13:23, 24 April 2015 (UTC)

DoRD, fair enough, just don't let it happen again or I'll give you 39 lashes with a wet noodle!!  :)

Seriously though, mistakes happen, no big deal, I appreciate the notice and quick resolve. -- SanAnMan (talk) 19:33, 24 April 2015 (UTC)

Thank you for your understanding! ​—DoRD (talk)​ 19:37, 24 April 2015 (UTC)

Rollback granted

Hi SanAnMan. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

• Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
• Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
• Rollback should never be used to edit war.
• If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
• Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Widr (talk) 21:21, 28 November 2016 (UTC)

Pending changes reviewer granted

Hello. Your account has been granted the "pending changes reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on pages protected by pending changes. The list of articles awaiting review is located at Special:PendingChanges, while the list of articles that have pending changes protection turned on is located at Special:StablePages.

Being granted reviewer rights neither grants you status nor changes how you can edit articles. If you do not want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time.

Your request at WP:AIV

About Special:Contributions/36.68.4.0/16. Can you be more specific about the vandalism? A /16 is very wide, and I think a /22 might be sufficient, but would like more examples of what you consider to be bad edits. Thanks, EdJohnston (talk) 15:01, 29 May 2020 (UTC)

@EdJohnston: If you think a /22 is sufficient enough, that works too. This is just ongoing years of blanking edits, making changes without summaries/explanations, reversions, multiple warns that have been given to the various IP's time and time again. Unfortunately, you'll have to look at each IP to see the warns issued, But it seems almost 80-90% of the edits done by this range have been reverted for one reason or another. - SanAnMan (talk) 15:17, 29 May 2020 (UTC)

OK, I have blocked Special:Contributions/36.68.4.0/22 for one month. Let me know if you notice a continuing problem. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 15:47, 29 May 2020 (UTC)

Can't prevent cross-wiki uploads to Commons

Hi SanAnMan, I've just tested this by blocking User:ToBeFree_(mobile) from contributing to the English Wikipedia's File namespace, and the account was sadly still able to upload files through our VisualEditor.^[1]

I have warned MitchellP95 on their Commons talk page now ([2]); if they continue, please report them to commons:COM:ANB. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 14:40, 25 March 2022 (UTC)

Request for removal of the "NPT" on all MasterChef pages

I think there should be an update to all the MasterChef elimination tables. The "NPT" should be phased out because there really is no difference between it and the light green "IN", which represents not being selected as a top or bottom entry in a team challenge, or the recently added light blue "HIGH", which represents a top entry in a team challenge. Under any kind of situation, the contestants in a specific team would always both be immune from elimination and would not have to cook in a pressure test at the same time. So, under my request, all the "NPT"s should be replaced with a light green "IN" or a light blue "HIGH", depending on how many contestants were saved from pressure tests. Jonghyunchung (talk) 12:45, 3 January 2023 (UTC)

@Jonghyunchung: I'm just one editor of these pages, I'd suggest submitting your idea on the main article's talk page Talk:MasterChef (American TV series) and see what others think. I'm just another editor, same as you. Best wishes. - SanAnMan (talk) 17:26, 3 January 2023 (UTC)

San Antonio mayoral elections

Hello SanAnMan. I've chosen to reach out to you before making any changes because I would like you input. From what I've seen, you are a veteran editor in the SA mayoral elections space. I know your commitment to consistency within the articles, which is a commitment I share. I find the current infobox structure for these articles to be clunky. Instead, I would like to implement the structure seen at most of the Chicago mayoral election articles -- see these two examples 2011 Chicago mayoral election (didn't result in a runoff) and 2015 Chicago mayoral election (did result in a runoff). I find this structure more appealing and less clunky. However, just to alleviate any concern, I don't plan to include any party affiliations of the incumbent and winning candidate at the bottom of the infobox and the color scheme of the lines below the candidates photos will remain grey, not various colors which could signify affiliations. Essentially the only difference is the runoff years are condensed to each one line for the general and runoff elections, which avoids excessive length and text. I would like a green light from you before I started making this change to all the San Antonio election articles. Furthermore, I plan to introduce this structure to the Houston, Austin, Dallas, and other Texas city articles for complete consistency. Also those articles are already a mess anyway. Thank you. Iamreallygoodatcheckers ^talk 06:22, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

@Iamreallygoodatcheckers: I agree with you 100% about the clunkiness of the infobox as it is right now. Please go ahead and make your change that you have suggested with at least my blessing. - SanAnMan (talk) 22:01, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

Thank you! I'll get to work soon. Iamreallygoodatcheckers ^talk 23:56, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

Ratings

Hello. The ratings you added for MasterChef Ep. 7 yesterday were preliminary and not final. They're called "fast affiliates".

Programming Insider takes a day or two to update to final ratings (also called "Live+Same Day" and "Final Nationals") on its articles, so please wait instead of immediately adding the ratings. The final ratings can be found below the fast affiliate ratings and start out like this:

UPDATED 7/20/2023 4:28 PM ET: What follows are the Live + Same Day rating results for the night’s network telecasts on Saturday, July 22, 2023:

Thank you. Linkin Prankster (talk) 03:54, 21 July 2023 (UTC)

@Linkin Prankster: Mea culpa, I honestly thought I saw they were the final ratings. - SanAnMan (talk) 15:26, 21 July 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for the help!

I would like to thank you for helping me out regarding the multiple IPs that were being used to vandalize the tour articles with the insistence of having United Kingdom instead of England, Wales, Scotland, etc. I am posting on your talk page to let you know that there is a discussion going on at the moment regarding this issue here at WikiProject Concerts. If you would like to share your opinion in the discussion, you are more than welcome to. :) HorrorLover555 (talk) 22:27, 21 July 2023 (UTC)

August 2023

Your recent editing history at MasterChef (American season 12) shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Notice of edit warring noticeboard discussion

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. The thread is Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring#User:SanAnMan reported by User:Happily888 (Result: ). Thank you. Happily888 (talk) 05:05, 27 August 2023 (UTC)

Advise

SanAnMan, you seem a sensible editor. Happily888 has given their olive branch to not edit war again. They have requested you to also not edit war from hereon, and especially to stop leaving edit summaries such as this or removing talk page comments. I find their request very fair and I am confident you would too. Please understand that there is always a positive gain in treating another editor as a friend rather than just an opponent. Do please try to give off a positive vibe to Happily and I am sure the end result would be ever after. Thank you for taking the time to read this. Lourdes 08:34, 28 August 2023 (UTC)

@Lourdes I'm fine with the olive branch, but I still don't think that this edit is in any way designed to improve the article or meet any other of the WP:Talk page guidelines, and should still be removed. I will apologize for the snipe edit summary, that was wrong on my part. - SanAnMan (talk) 15:28, 28 August 2023 (UTC)

Apology with a Warning

I apologize, for flying off the handle on you. However, the way you treated me, I forgive you for it, but I will not forget it. I still believe that my edits, on pages you edited (Because this site can be edited by anyone, unless other stipulations are in place), were warranted to be published. Yet, you decided to take an attitude with me and threaten me... the former I can forgive, but, the threat, is what I will not forget, and I could use it against you as blackmail, but I am not that kind of girl.

So in the future, should I make any additions to any pages you have edited, because I believe I have evidence to back up the edits, why not consider it a contribution, rather than a means to fly off the handle, because I am a woman?

In closing, let's work together, but keep in mind, if you threaten me again, expect a visit from my legal council.
