Request to Unblock my Account

change

Greetings! I wish to request that you kindly unblock my Wikipedia account. I was blocked due to the disruption I ignorantly caused. I'm dropped this message because I have sent a mail but nobody replied. I own up and apologise that you unblock my account associated with this IP: 102. 90. 45. 102 thank you. 102.91.4.253 (talk) 19:48, 7 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

You would have to give your account name. I can't find an account based on the IP number. In any case, unblock requests should be made on the talk page of the account. -- Auntof6 (talk) 20:45, 7 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
I was blocked from editing even the talk page of the accounts. The accounts are "Joseph4real1995" & "Abu4real1995". Thank you! 197.210.79.157 (talk) 06:22, 8 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
What email address did you send the request to, and when did you send it?
@Fr33kman: Is there a particular reason you blocked talk page access for these two accounts? -- Auntof6 (talk) 06:46, 8 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
I'm having issues attaching the mail address but it is "simple-admins-I[at]lists[dot]wikimedia[dot]org" replacing the items in the brackets with the actual symbols. I sent on Oct 1, no reply, and the last one was Nov. 6 197.210.226.233 (talk) 07:19, 8 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
Please, I'm sorry for the troubles. I presented an issue and nothing has been done. I'm humbly asking for a way out. What should I do? 102.89.40.176 (talk) 21:57, 8 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
(talk page watcher) Hello, please refer to my response to your email. Apologies for the slow response. Please do not respond to this message here, as it technically counts as block evasion. --Ferien (talk) 22:09, 8 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Question about empty categories

change

Hello :) I'm asking you because you are the number 1 Category Expert, but anyone who knows can answer. How do you know when a category has been empty for four days? And how do you deal with monthly backlog categories that automatically C1 themselves once they are empty? My guess is that old backlogs are deleted straight away because they are unlikely to be re-populated again, but I am curious to know if that's the case or not. Thank you in advance :) ✩ Dream Indigo ✩ 16:32, 8 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Dream Indigo: Good questions.
"How do you know when a category has been empty for four days?"
I put the category in my watchlist temporarily, then look for any activity in it during the last 4 days. That will show if anything was removed from it during that time. I think you have to have "category changes" active for this to work, and display at least 4 days worth of activity in your watchlist.
"monthly backlog categories that automatically C1 themselves once they are empty"
I assume you mean maintenance categories. I consider these an exception to the 4-day rule. If they are for past months, I would delete them as soon as they are empty.
Hope that helps. -- Auntof6 (talk) 20:24, 8 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
Yes, it helped a lot, that's a genius trick, thank you so much! ☺️😊 ✩ Dream Indigo ✩ 20:33, 8 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Question about popcat

change

Hello :) I was wondering, if a category has a subcategory and two categories is {{popcat}} still used? Thank you o(◕ᴗ◕✿)o☆ ⯎ Asteralee ⯎ 22:32, 15 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Asteralee: I'm not sure what you mean by "a subcategory and two categories" -- do you mean a subcat and two articles? In any case, if it has three entries of any type -- articles, templates, sub categories, or whatever -- I wouldn't put popcat on it. -- Auntof6 (talk) 23:00, 15 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
Sorry for the misunderstanding - that's exactly what I meant. Thank you for answering my question :) ⯎ Asteralee ⯎ 23:01, 15 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hey, I recently accidentally clicked the restore button while editing on my phone, and it automatically restored without asking for confirmation. Is there any way to enable a restore confirmation before performing a restore? DIVINE (talk) 20:41, 18 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

@DIVINE: I'm not sure what you mean by "restore". What function is that? -- Auntof6 (talk) 20:54, 18 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
