Please refrain from discussing here! (read the rules)

The Admin noticeboard is one way through which users can notify administrators of issues needing administrative attention. While users are welcome to directly contact specific administrators (especially if they are seen to be active), posting here can be an easier and quicker way of ensuring that at least one admin will notice an issue and respond to it promptly. Remember to sign when posting an issue.

Before posting an issue here, consider the following:

  • As this is a noticeboard and not a talk page, please refrain from discussing.
  • Post only issues that require administrative action as per policy, i.e. blocking vandals, protecting pages etc.
  • Do not post issues regarding content disputes. Try making a request for comments instead by adding a link to the discussion page.
  • Mediation requests between users should only be made if a resolution could not be reached between users.
  • For issues regarding the use of this wiki, please see our help center.

In case of vandalism, posting about it here is low priority. Revert it first, anyone can do so. If the vandal created a new page, tag it for deletion. Consider leaving a message on that user's talk page to explain the reason. Post here only if the user has made several disruptive edits and/or persists despite a warning. Always avoid a revert war with the vandal; it is far better to wait until an admin has a chance to intervene.

Creating a new request — vandals
  1. Edit the Vandal issues section
  2. At the top of the list, use the ;{{vandal|IP address or username here}} template. Provide a short and neutral summary of the issue
Creating a new request — non-vandal cases (e.g. user issues, page protection/undeletion, etc.)
  1. Add a new section to the page using the "+" button at the top of the page
  2. In the subject field, enter an appropriate title , without using links or templates
  3. In the edit field, use the {{user|IP address or username here}} template to refer to users involved with the case (you may also use {{IP|IP address or username here}}, though it is deprecated). Provide a short and neutral summary of the issue.

As a sign of courtesy, also leave a message on the talk page of any involved user.

[edit] Notices to administrators

[edit] Copyright and deletion issues

Recently, a number of source pages for merges have been tagged for deletion. Im am currently removing the tags as quickly as possible. Please due not delete these pages, and undelete any you find which were deleted until copyright and attribution issues can be sorted out. -- Gordon Ecker 08:41, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

It'd be better if you attributed in the merged article. A near blank edit, with attribs of the original matterial in the edit summary would solve your issue, without necessitating keeping a lot of obsolete pages. Backsword 08:44, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
I think they should only be kept until the attribution issues have been resolved. I've created a template for it: template:mergesource, which I am about to add to the pages. -- Gordon Ecker 09:20, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
They're all tagged now. -- Gordon Ecker 10:17, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
