Template:Moderationnav

This page is for the request of page protection within the Urban Dead wiki. Due to philosophical concerns, the ability to protect pages is restricted to system operators. As such, regular users will need to request a protection from the system operators. For consistency and accountability, system operators also adhere to the guidelines listed here.

Guidelines for Protection Requests

All Protection Requests must contain the following information in order to be considered:

  • A link to the page in question. Preferably bolded for visibility.
  • A reason for protection. This should be short and to the point.
  • A signed datestamp. This can be easily done by adding ~~~~ to the end of your request.

Any protection request that does not contain these three pieces of information will not be considered, and will be removed by a system operator.

Once the protection request has been entered, the request shall remain on this page, where it will be reviewed by a member of the Sysop team, and action taken accordingly. Once action has been taken, the system operator will add a comment including a signed datestamp detailing his course of action, and the request will be moved into the Recent Actions queue, where it will remain for one week. After that week is up, it may be moved to the archive (see navigation box below). If the Protection has been granted, the system operator should place the tag {{protect}} on the page(s) that have been protected.

In the event of a system operator requesting a Protection, all the previous points will apply, excepting that a system operator other than the requestor shall review and take action on the request.

Another archive is here.

Requested Edits

Category:Wikigate

I moved the content to UDWiki:Administration/Arbitration/Amazing vs Various, which was the original case created by amazing. Category:Wikigate should now simply state what the category is about.

[[Category:Arbitration Cases|Wikigate]]
This is a category for [[UDWiki:Administration/Arbitration|arbitration cases]] surrounding the event named 
[[Wikigate]]. The original case involved several users with several accusations (see 
[[UDWiki:Administration/Arbitration/Amazing vs Various|Amazing vs Various]]), and was later split in several 
1-against-1 cases involving amazing and those whom he accused in the original arbitration case.

UDWiki:Administration/Arbitration_Guidelines

Guidelines should not be editable by normal users whenever they feel like.--Mr. Angel, Help needed? 20:38, 8 June 2009 (BST)

I also request the official protection of this page. I've protected the page for the moment to prevent hag's continued, unconsented and undiscussed edits.--Mr. Angel, Help needed? 20:56, 8 June 2009 (BST)

Now, the changes made before protection of the intro were to make sure they were as described as always. The changes to the guidelines page were to add in the clause that if no arbitrator is agreed on, one will be chosen and to remove the bit that said that arbitration is not required in any way. As far as I know, there has been no discussion for any of the changes Hagnat is trying to make, or that Iscariot has made, or anything. And I further state that guidelines should not be editable by normal users. It's something we use a rulebook, no one would be able to modify it without discussion or consensus.--Mr. Angel, Help needed? 20:58, 8 June 2009 (BST)

Gee... ima glad i move the guidelines to a different page then, so you can protected it and forbid normal users to edit it. Pff. Btw, the arbitration guidelines you are trying to protect were written by OddStart and/or LibrarianBrent in 2005 without community input. --People's Commissar Hagnat [talk] [wcdz] 21:02, 8 June 2009 (BST)
And since then they have become a rule book for us, like many documents. You don't change something 3 years after you start using it and not expect slight problems to arise.--Mr. Angel, Help needed? 21:04, 8 June 2009 (BST)

And I've now protected that guideline page to keep hag's from messing with it.--Mr. Angel, Help needed? 21:07, 8 June 2009 (BST)

I should misconbitrate you for protecting a page where you have some vested interest :D but meh. --People's Commissar Hagnat [talk] [wcdz] 21:09, 8 June 2009 (BST)
I should take you to A/VB for modifying things we use as a rulebook without consensus. But you're an old dinosaur with the wikis best interest at heart, so I don't. You know we have a system of doing things, use it. :) --Mr. Angel, Help needed? 21:10, 8 June 2009 (BST)


The pages have been unprotected, and I still request another sysops to protect them. Prevention of Misconduct cases, etc. And I also request that the edits I have made prior to protection stay, because as I said there has been no discussion to justify Iscariot's and Hagnat's edits. And also, it'd be silly to have another confliction, one page saying ti can't be force with the main arbies page saying it can.--Mr. Angel, Help needed? 01:42, 9 June 2009 (BST)--Mr. Angel, Help needed? 01:42, 9 June 2009 (BST)

Suggestion:20090513_Suicide_With_A_Vengeance

SA's vote (number 6) requires striking according to the rules of suggestions voting. As a consequence of this, votes by DDR (number 7) and OrangeGaf (number 14) also require striking, as they deem their votes to be "As SA" they are also providing no justification. As the deadline has passed these votes cannot be changed or added to by the voters under suggestions precedent and common sense. The suggestion will remain Peer Rejected, no other changes will be required. -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem! The Rogues Gallery!. <== DDR Approved Editor 02:36, 28 May 2009 (BST)

Oh no, see, due to your and quite a few others reasoning, any thing wrote after the initial vote is considered a justification. Theirs cannot be struck just because of it being "as SA", because no one cares what kind of justification things get, as long as it gets one. Cause you know, making your justification "Shoes for the poor" is more valid than "Kill".--Mr. Angel, Help needed? 02:52, 28 May 2009 (BST)
I think you'll find that such justifications are considered trolling and/or inane and also removed. Either you're ignorant of the suggestion system and its precedents or you are deliberately disrupting various pages for your own amusement. -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem! The Rogues Gallery!. <== DDR Approved Editor 02:54, 28 May 2009 (BST)

The vote has been restruck by SA -- boxy talkteh rulz 23:00 28 May 2009 (BST)

One has been struck, the other two haven't. As they have no reasoning they are also invalid and should be struck. -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem! The Rogues Gallery!. <== DDR Approved Editor 07:24, 29 May 2009 (BST)
Theirs is still valid. Do you know why? Because they put something after their "Kill" vote, which as inane as it may be, is still technically valid according to everyone's fucked up view of the rules/guidelines. If you don't like it, tough. You don't actually care that their votes are invalid, so long as you can cause trouble. Get off your ass and change the rules if you care about it so much. But you know, that would require you to interact with people without being a dick.--Mr. Angel, Help needed? 13:29, 29 May 2009 (BST)
Unless you intend to change every single one of these votes from every suggestion made on this wiki, I see no reason why you should nazi your way through this request any further than you've gotten already. DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 13:32, 29 May 2009 (BST)

Historical Groups

Everything in the Imposters section needs the Historical Group template removing for both the page and talk page and both unprotecting.

Reasoning supplied at the bottom of the page. Action these. -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem! The Rogues Gallery!. <== DDR Approved Editor 05:58, 27 May 2009 (BST)

Perhaps they would be better having an inactive template added -- boxy talkteh rulz 07:44 27 May 2009 (BST)
I agree, I'll add a {{InactiveGroup}} template to these (assuming another sysop doesn't get to them first.) Linkthewindow  Talk  07:53, 27 May 2009 (BST)
I am unconcerned with what (if anything it is replaced with), I believe I state in my reasoning that the only result I'm after is the removal of Historical status until they have passed the required vote. All of the groups will be classed as inactive though due to the time passed. -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem! The Rogues Gallery!. <== DDR Approved Editor 07:58, 27 May 2009 (BST)

I went through this over a year ago removing some of the imposters. Looks a few more may have cropped up, but I think some of those really old ones were deemed historical before the system was set up, but it's hard to tell. --  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 18:24, 27 May 2009 (BST)

  2. FOBU
  3. Mall Tour '06
  4. The Many
  5. The Ministry of the Dead
  6. Mockers
  7. On Strike
  8. RABH

But I've left the ones directly above this in the historical category, for now. As it says on the policy page, "all groups currently within the category will remain as long as they have a historical significance section added within a month of the passing of this policy". These pages seem to comply with that, having a section dedicated to how the groups fit in with the history of UD, and them being historical before the policy that brought in voting for historical status. The policy wasn't retroactive, as long as the group pages had a historical section on the page. Perhaps, if they all remain historical, they should be mentioned in the successful section of historical groups to make it easy to see which ones were from before voting was implemented -- boxy talkteh rulz 08:29 28 May 2009 (BST)

The need for that 'grandfathering' of status is no longer valid. Crit 12 was removed to preserve all groups. The grandfather clause was there to prevent their removal even though the owners may have not been active any longer. As this proviso no longer applies (these pages will never be removed due to the community getting rid of Crit 12), all the Historical template remaining on their pages does is create confusion over why the voting records can't be found and could lead to misuse of it again as well as the double standard based on their age. All groups with the Historical template should be made subject to a vote, especially since as there is no detriment to its removal. I swear I put all this on that page of mine.... -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem! The Rogues Gallery!. <== DDR Approved Editor 09:05, 28 May 2009 (BST)
Why should I give a shit what you put on your page? I don't bother reading much of it because it's not policy, and even if I felt the need to discuss anything there, any comment I make would be summarily deleted regardless of it's merit. The policy made it clear that existing historical groups would remain in the category. The best way to deal with it is to make note of the exceptions on the successful page. Any further additions to the category, that don't link to the page can then be removed simply -- boxy talkteh rulz 09:18 28 May 2009 (BST)
Why should you give a shit? Well perhaps that all requested edits require a reasoning, which is on that page. -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem! The Rogues Gallery!. <== DDR Approved Editor 09:21, 28 May 2009 (BST)

The Gingerbread Men did get a historical vote (that passed). So did Axes High. You are clinically retarded if you think The Many, DARIS, (and eventually the Dead) aren't historical and need to be protected and preserved. But, this is an interesting new way to be annoying. Congrats!--– Nubis NWO 10:11, 28 May 2009 (BST)

Main Page, Template:Navigation, Template:Wiki News and more...

Summary

This will change the main page to look like this. Among the obvious new look, the change also adds a CP section and numerous code fixes (such as getting rid of the ugly white curved edges). The new design was discussed on the talk page, and after many changes from user input to get as much support as possible, it's ready. The last concern in the latest discussion was on the colours being too bright, which was fixed by making them all darker. Some of the pages will look broken, but this is because I've removed my user sub pages and added the to-be templates. All you need to do is copy+paste.

Please do these changes in quick succession, otherwise it'll confuse a lot of people.

Protection Request

Hello i wouldlike to request that my signature page be protected so it will not be touched/ruined. User:Fanglord2/sig thanks in advance. Chairman Fanglord, 18:28, 27 February 2009 (UTC)

Counter request. The signature breaks policy and should not be protected until it conforms. The image is too high and the overall height (23px from the looks of the code) could interfere with line spacing. From a minor pedantry standpoint, you could also cut the coding by a third and still get the same effect. -- User:The Rooster RoosterDragon User talk:The Rooster 19:11, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
Is this sorted, and can be protected? Linkthewindow  Talk  10:52, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
Still long-winded, but it doesn't break policy. Fine by me. -- User:The Rooster RoosterDragon User talk:The Rooster 17:20, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

the second template should be 'sig/B', not 'sig/A', right ? --People's Commissar Hagnat [talk] [wcdz] 18:01, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
Yup. My bad. -- User:The Rooster RoosterDragon User talk:The Rooster 18:54, 26 February 2009 (UTC)

Protections Scheduling Queue

Protection Scheduling requests should be requested in the same general format as Deletions. Votes will occur in the same general manner, and like deletion scheduling requests will be voted on for two (2) weeks, as judged by the initial datestamp. Valid votes are:

  • Yea - Approval of Schedule Request
  • Nay - Disapproval of Schedule Request

Finished Arby Cases

With the new arbitration format, we'll need to protect the pages once the case is closed. Just so we can protect them if someone's forgot to put in a request for us to do so. -- Cheese

  • Yea - I'm not sure if this is covered by the archive thingy below since it's a new format. -- Cheese 12:24, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Yea - i was about to ask this kind of pages to be added to the protection schedule, lol --People's Commissar Hagnat [cloned] [mod] 12:57, 31 March 2008 (BST)
    Well thats been over a month and there have been no objections so I'll stick this as scheduled. -- Cheese 23:37, 7 May 2008 (BST)
    When the hell did this go up and why would you not actually check to see that it is already scheduled before proposing it?--Karekmaps?! 05:37, 8 May 2008 (BST)
