Disambiguation link notification for December 24

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Erwin Helfer ↗, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Columbia College ↗. Such links are usually incorrect ↗, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ{{*}} Join us at the DPL WikiProject ↗.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, --DPL bot (talk) 19:53, 24 December 2025 (UTC)

:hey, as someone who’s felt the same way (honestly, still working on it), please don’t. i know it sounds lame to say ‘it gets better,’ but that’s a cliche because it’s true. You are worth something. You are worth the world to some people. Those are people who would want you to stay.

Rollback ↗ and Pending changes reviewer ↗ rights granted

Hi {{<includeonly>safesubst:</includeonly>BASEPAGENAME}}! I've been running into you while patrolling logs and recent changes, and I happened to notice that you don't have the ''rollback'' or ''pending changes reviewer'' user rights. I hope you don't mind, but I went through your contributions and I noticed that you're quite active in recent changes patrolling ↗, and that you consistently view and undo vandalism ↗ and bad faith disruption. I believe that these user rights would be useful for you to have and that you'd make good use of both tools. Instead of having you formally request these user rights at WP:PERM ↗, I went ahead and just gave them to you. These user rights allow you to review edits that are pending approval ↗ on pages currently under pending changes protection ↗, as well as to quickly revert the edits of other users ↗ in cases of blatant vandalism.

:;Rollback permissions ↗
right|100px ↗

::Please keep these things in mind at all times when using rollback to revert edits:
:::*Being granted rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle ↗. It just adds a ''"[Rollback]"'' button next to a page's latest edits - that's all. It does not grant you any additional "status" on Wikipedia, nor does it change how Wikipedia policies apply to you (obviously).
:::*Rollback should be used to revert ''clear and unambiguous'' cases of vandalism ↗ '''''only''''', and ''never'' used to revert good faith edits ↗.
:::*Rollback should '''never''' be used to edit war ↗, and it should '''never''' be used in a content-related dispute to restore the page to your preferred revision. If rollback is abused or used for this purpose, the rights will be revoked.
:::*Use common sense. If you're not sure about something, '''''ask'''''.

:::For more information on how to use rollback, see this tutorial page ↗.

:;Pending changes reviewer permissions ↗
right|100px ↗
::Please keep these things in mind regarding the tools or when you're reviewing any pending changes:
:::*A list of articles with pending edits awaiting review can be viewed at Special:PendingChanges ↗, and a list of the articles currently under pending changes protection can be viewed at Special:StablePages ↗.
:::*Being granted and having these rights does not grant you any additional "status" on Wikipedia, nor does it change how Wikipedia policies apply to you (obviously).
:::*You'll generally want to '''accept''' any pending changes that appear to be legitimate edits and are not blatant vandalism or disruption, and '''reject''' edits that are problematic or that you wouldn't accept yourself.
:::*'''Never''' accept any pending changes that contain obvious and clear vandalism ↗, blatant neutral point of view ↗ issues, copyright violations ↗, or BLP ↗ violations.

::You may find the following pages useful to review:
:::*Wikipedia:Reviewing pending changes ↗, the guideline and tutorial on using the rights and reviewing pending changes.
:::*Wikipedia:Pending changes ↗, a summary of pending changes protection, the pending changes user right, and how it applies.
:::*Wikipedia:Protection policy#Pending changes protection ↗, the policy section on pending changes protection and its appropriate application and use by administrators.

I'm sure you'll do fine with these user rights - they're pretty straight-forward and they don't drastically change the interface that you're used to already. Nonetheless, please don't hesitate to leave me a message on my user talk page if you run into any questions, get stuck anywhere, run into any issues or problems, or if you're not sure if the use of either tool is appropriate or not and need my input or advice - I'll be more than happy to help you any time you need it. If you no longer want one or both of these user rights, let me know and I'll be happy to remove them for you. Thank you for helping to locate, revert, and remove vandalism, as well as review and keep disruptive edits off of Wikipedia - it's a very thankless job to perform and I want you to know that it doesn't go unnoticed and that I appreciate it very much. Happy editing! :-D ~Oshwah~(talk) ↗ (contribs) ↗ 01:55, 27 January 2026 (UTC)

:Just chipping in to say I also appreciate your hard work! (And I stole your userpage hatnote :D) Since you edit a lot from mobile, I'd recommend trying out WP:CVPI ↗. :)
:Also, an interesting essay that I would have found helpful if I'd known about it is Wikipedia:Identifying test edits ↗. lp0 on fire () 07:42, 27 January 2026 (UTC)

non-article improving questions

hello beautiful enby with subjectively cute sounding name! straight to it cus i feel kinda overstimulated.

# how do i do the trans colors at the top like that?
# how do i do the SHA commitment? i know it’s a complicated computer language thing. ik i could search it up, but i honestly didnt feel like doing that, but im not forcing an answer.

lastly, we love saying “:3”! hehehe, just wanted to do happiness things lol :3. Tonkarooson • 📭 ↗|edits ↗. 04:37, 31 January 2026 (UTC)

:# You can transclude {{tlux|User:enbi/non-binary stripe}} anywhere on your userpage.
:# You can use this tool ↗ to generate a hash, then you add the template {{tlx|Committed identity}} to your userpage with the first parameter being the output from the hash tool. This helps if your account is compromised because you can prove that you are back in control of your account by recalling the original input you used with the hash tool above. (which you should save somewhere) If you don't understand me (i'm pretty hard to understand), you can read the documentation at Template:Committed identity ↗ :3

Question from Wordsonwordsonpagesonwordshello (13:31, 11 March 2026)

Hi how do I know if what I contribute to a article is actually valuable and won't get deleted? --Wordsonwordsonpagesonwordshello (talk) 13:31, 11 March 2026 (UTC)

:Hi! I'd suggest contributing to articles by adding info sourced from reliable secondary sources ↗. If your edit does get deleted, or "reverted" as we call it on Wikipedia and you don't agree with it, you can ask the person who reverted it why they did it using their user talk page ↗. If you want more info on how to add sources to articles, you can read the page Help:Introduction to referencing with VisualEditor/1 ↗, and if you're still struggling, you can ask me for help. enbi [they/them] • [talk] 15:46, 11 March 2026 (UTC)
::Okay thanks!!!!! I mean I never usually have anything useful to add to a article because everything I know about a subject is usually on the article already so idk Wordsonwordsonpagesonwordshello (talk) 17:43, 11 March 2026 (UTC)
:::I'd recommend starting off by editing smaller, lower-traffic articles because it's easier to make good improvements to an article that doesn't already contain a lot of information.

About a recent revision

Hi! I myself am in no way related to this, but by complete chance I stumbled across it, and I wanted to bring it to your attention.

You recently undid a revision by Naslmah on the page Sabine G. MacCormack ↗, citing non-neutral content. However, Naslmah's edit was only a size of -1 byte, and it's just that they removed the space between two paragraphs. I was wondering if the non-neutral content you were mentioning was one of those paragraphs. If so, it's still on the page, as reverting the edit only put the space back between the paragraphs.

Also, Naslmah seems to have many edits with a difference of only a couple of bytes. I looked at a couple of these at random, and most/all of them seem to be removing the spacing between two paragraphs. To me, this did not seem very constructive, and it always seemed like those paragraphs should be split. I'm a beginner editor though. Is there anything we can do about the situation? I don't want to manually revert each edit one by one.

Thanks! As I said, I'm a beginner, so tell me if I have anything wrong about this situation! Jayupe (talk) 02:01, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
:{{tps}} @Jayupe Yeah, their edits are a problem (the revert may have just been a missclick and had the wrong edit summary). I've gone ahead and reverted all the edits with a fancy tool and sent them a message. Thanks for letting us know. – LuniZunie(talk) 02:12, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
::Thank you! Sadly, I've just been robbed of a hunnerd edits! (jk, though I'm very slowly trying to make my way to extended confirmed.) Jayupe (talk) 04:12, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
:You were correct that the revert was wrong or at least tagged with the wrong reason. I wrongly identified that Naslmah added the text
:{{tq2|While her scholarship continues to have a great impact, she was also a charismatic instructor at both the graduate and undergraduate levels, inspiring many of her students to pursue Late Antiquity as a field of study. A woman of firm opinions, she enjoyed inviting students and colleagues to long salon style evenings at her home to discuss scholarship and politics (whether at Stanford, Ann Arbor, or South Bend).}}
:The description as {{tq|charismatic}} seemed to have a promotional tone to it. The entire article also doesn't look very neutral with another section referring to her as a {{tq|master of knitting}}. enbi [they/them] • [talk] 07:02, 13 March 2026 (UTC)

LTA speculation

I hate to be this confrontational, but please stop speculating about who’s who when it comes to LTAs. Many of the guesses you make end up being wrong, and it happens quite often. Please slow down with the speculation. CutlassCiera 18:57, 15 March 2026 (UTC)

:::::{{tq|1=And can you stop inserting yourself in discussions where you are never pinged or mentioned?

All I asked was to see an example so if I could find where a mistake was made.

:::::::Incorrect, the stewards originally gblocked as impersonation with no defined person; then later locked based on behaviour. And this: {{tq|1=Both of you need to stop with this arrogant, overconfident attitude towards antivandalism.}} is very clearly a personal comment. – LuniZunie(talk) 19:20, 15 March 2026 (UTC)

:{{pb}}Hi {{u|Cutlass}}, while I appreciate that you are vigilant about correctly identifying sockpuppeteers, I have no doubt that enbi and LuniZunie are also both responding to this matter ↗ in good faith ↗, and I believe everyone would be better off if this discussion continued in a less confrontational manner.{{pb}}This particular identification was stated in the log summary of a global lock ↗, so if you would like to appeal the identification, your next step would be to contact the steward who implemented the lock on Meta-Wiki at :m:User talk:SHB2000 ↗. However, because the LTA's behavior is blatant trolling that would be instantly recognized as warranting an indefinite block, a better course of action (in my opinion) would be to leave the identification as-is, thereby denying recognition ↗ to the LTA and minimizing the amount of time wasted on responding to their antics. — '''''Newslinger''' talk'' 19:41, 15 March 2026 (UTC)

Hello! I am new to the Wiki (as an editor) I would like to learn basic editing tools and skills --Nandom Daya (talk) 20:52, 23 March 2026 (UTC)

:Hi! Since you're new to wikipedia, I'd recommend that you start by using the VisualEditor ↗ tool (which lets you edit pages like a Word document). One of the most useful editing skills is to know how to use reliable sources ↗ and inline citations ↗ (a fancy way to format references on Wikipedia) so that other readers and editors can prove that what you're saying is true.
:You could also go to the Task Centre ↗ page where there are pages that need help such as pages with no reliable sources or pages that need categorising ↗.

Recent changes

How do you do counter-vandal/patrol work?

Hey, have seen you around doing CV stuff and wondering how you go about it? Like what kinds or tools you use, or what kinds of tags you use on Recent Changes to find some of your edits? I'm... well I guess not super new anymore, but would like to branch out to see how other people do it. Realtent (talk) 03:47, 9 April 2026 (UTC)

:{{tps}} enbi appears to use a combination of Twinkle, Interceptor ↗, and the Rollback right ↗. Not sure how they find problematic edits, though; I myself mainly spot stuff through the edit filter ↗, which is especially convenient when editing on my iPhone as you can swipe down in Safari to reload the page and refresh the filter, which normally doesn't auto-update like Recent Changes or the Watchlist.
:enbi also has made a bunch of scripts to help them when patrolling. SuperPianoMan9167 (talk) 04:24, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
::I've been eyeing Interceptor and rollback for awhile now, but never thought to apply due to me only starting CV work about a month ago. Edit filter seems like a good place to keep eyes on though. Thanks for the tips! (will probably not touch scripts, I have basic js knowledge but not enough to risk screwing up) Realtent (talk) 04:31, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
::Hi! I mostly find problematic edits either through Interceptor or by watching user creation logs and watching for certain username patterns, which I made a few scripts to help with. I try to use the edit filter to find edits sometimes, but I don't like spam-refreshing the page constantly and whenever I find vandalism, someone else has usually got there before me. I also use WikiMonitor ↗, which lets me set personal abuse filters that apply globally that I usually set to trip on stuff like references to LTA ↗s and common vandal phrases. enbi [they/them] • [talk] 10:11, 9 April 2026 (UTC)

Nils Petersen

hello enbi, if you only want to stay on the neutral point of view, whatever that is, you can delete Wikipedia nearly completely. I think it's not so far from a fact, that the best scorer should play and Nils Petersen was the best scorer, that's a fact. He wrote a book "banking secret", where he asked himself, why he always played only the last 20 minutes. He scored the most goals per minute playing time, therefore his nickname was "premium joker". I don't know if you're an expert for football, I think, I am one, did you ever play football, I did. I promised 2018 that Germany will soon quit the WM and that France will win it. Nils Peterson was the most underestimated German player ever. ~2026-23335-47 ↗ (talk) 15:29, 17 April 2026 (UTC)

:The links you tried to add are primary sources ↗ (the original place where information comes from e.g. the game's website) which are useful as supporting sources but can't be used to base a full article off of.

I am wondering if the only way that I can update her page and have the notability tag removed is to apply for one edit at a time, and wait for them to be reviewed?

If there is a Wikipedia article ''about'' that award, it is likely that should be sufficient to address the notability concerns per WP:ANYBIO ↗; if not it might still be deemed sufficient. I'm afraid there isn't really anything you can do to speed up the reply except making sure your request is clear. lp0 on fire () 18:54, 15 May 2026 (UTC)
::::::<nowiki>thank you for your support with this. There is a page for the RAIC, but not for that award. However, it is mentioned on the RAIC page as the RAIC's highest award. I have been doing the Wiki training and have been trying to think of a topic that I know about that would be worthwhile for a new Wikipedia page. Could I establish a page for the award? ~~~</nowiki> NAKriss (talk) 15:28, 19 May 2026 (UTC)
:::::::You could certainly look into it! If other reliable sources (probably architectural magazines or mainstream newspapers) have written a significant amount ''about'' the award (not just about people receiving it), it's probably notable, but otherwise it's likely to be a waste of time. If that award doesn't meet Wikipedia's inclusion criteria, it is still entirely possible for Hanson to be notable. lp0 on fire () 15:55, 19 May 2026 (UTC)
::::::::<nowiki>There certainly are media about the award, and not just about Hanson, so it could be a cool exercise to learn how to build a page. But in the meantime, the link on the RAIC wiki page to the award went to a general honors and awards page, not the page for the Gold Medal. I attempted to fix that link, but I did something wrong the first time and did not fix it. I was successful on my second attempt. Do I need to Undo my first attempt? ~~~</nowiki> NAKriss (talk) 16:15, 19 May 2026 (UTC)

Question from GamerCaboy (15:50, 24 April 2026)

So apparently I've been blocked indefinitely to edit for supposedly impersonating someone's username..? I literally made a similar version to my roblox one. --GamerCaboy (talk) 15:50, 24 April 2026 (UTC)

:It doesn't look like your account has been blocked to me. Does it say that you specifically are blocked or that your IP address is blocked? enbi [they/them] • [talk] 15:59, 24 April 2026 (UTC)
::Me specifically. GamerCaboy (talk) 16:01, 24 April 2026 (UTC)

::::That's the notification I got, but I have to press view all notifications. GamerCaboy (talk) 16:06, 24 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::That account ({{u|Enbi424}}) just a troll who is trying to impersonate me because they think it's funny for some reason. The notification that you got was because they copied my talk page (which had mentions of you) onto their talk page to look like me. They're the one who got blocked, not you so you should be able to edit normally. enbi [they/them] • [talk] 16:15, 24 April 2026 (UTC)

:Hi @GamerCaboy, sorry yes I blocked the account before noticing that they had transcluded {{noping|enbi}}'s talkpage on theirs, and Twinkle must have somehow picked up your username from that page and generated you a baseless warning along with the actual block warning for the account in question.

User Page

Hey I adore your User Page especially the anti vandal section and how to act when you see vandalism I was going to copy paste it into my page but I wanted to give you credit and I dont know how to link to you if I do Goetia (talk) 19:33, 27 April 2026 (UTC)
:I didn't make the image/video in that section, so you don't have to give credit to me. In fact, I found it on someone else's user page, but I forgot who it was. enbi [they/them] • [talk] 19:38, 27 April 2026 (UTC)

Question from Donald F Bur (13:43, 1 May 2026)

Enbi,
I've seen, from time to time, a whole page devoted toward a particular book. I've written a few books on Canadian constitutional law, some of which don't get read in their entirety because of their size, and I would like to create a page for these books so that people can get a good sense of what the book does before opening it.

Where do I start? --Donald F Bur (talk) 13:43, 1 May 2026 (UTC)

:{{talk page stalker}} First, I'd advise reading WP:COI ↗ to learn about Wikipedia's conflict-of-interest policies. Next, make sure that the book(s) is/are notable enough. Finally, if the books are notable and have reliable, secondary sources, you can create a draft and submit it at Arcticles for Creation ↗, where it'll be analyzed and possibly accepted. This is a hard decision (talk to me!, contribs ↗) 20:24, 14 May 2026 (UTC)

Semi-protection

Would you still rather this page not be? As they keep harassing even after a rangeblock... ~Lofty abyss 19:02, 2 May 2026 (UTC)
:@Lofty abyss From my off-wiki talks with them they currently can't respond to you. There is an issue with the WMF rate limiting IPs and their IP has been affected. – LuniZunie(talk) 19:24, 2 May 2026 (UTC)
::Hi hi, just saw this on my watchlist - is there anything we can do to help? The recent rate limit changes shouldn't be preventing normal editing using the site, so if they are this could be a bug. — TheresNoTime (talk • they/them) 20:11, 2 May 2026 (UTC)
:::They told me they have emailed multiple times, get unblocked for a short amount of time, and then get IP blocked again (hence the short editing spree yesterday). I told them maybe contact @EMill-WMF but I'm not sure if they ever did. – LuniZunie(talk) 20:14, 2 May 2026 (UTC)
::::(I told them to contact Eric because I had the same issue a few months back and I contacted Eric and it got fixed--albeit a coincidence I think) – LuniZunie(talk) 20:23, 2 May 2026 (UTC)
:::::Well depending on what they/you mean by "blocked" (as in, a wiki block or a rate limit block?), its probably best if they email {{email|ca|wikimedia.org}} for some help if it keeps happening, instead of waiting it out. If it is rate limiting causing this, we'll definitely want to know! {{p}} — TheresNoTime (talk • they/them) 20:35, 2 May 2026 (UTC)
::::::Yes it is rate limiting, and they reached out to ca which is why they got unblocked a few times I believe, however they just keep getting re-ratelimited. – LuniZunie(talk) 20:36, 2 May 2026 (UTC)

Temporary account IP viewer granted

right|80px|alt=The temporary account IP viewer logo, composed of the Wikipedia globe with a user and an IP address ↗
Hello, Enbi. Per your request, your account has been granted ↗ {{mono|temporary-account-viewer}} rights. You are now able to reveal the IP addresses of individuals using temporary accounts ↗ that are not visible to the general public. This is very sensitive information that is only to be used to aid in anti-abuse workflows. Please take a moment to review Wikipedia:Temporary account IP viewer ↗ for more information on this user right. It is important to remember:

You must not share IP address data with someone who does not have the same access permissions unless disclosure is permissible as per guidelines listed at Foundation:Policy:Wikimedia Access to Temporary Account IP Addresses Policy ↗.

Access must not be used for political control, to apply pressure on editors, or as a threat against another editor in a content dispute. There must be a valid reason to investigate a temporary user. Note that using multiple temporary accounts is not forbidden, so long as they are not used in violation of policies (for example, block or ban evasion).

It is also important to note that the following actions are logged for others to see:

When a user accepts the preference that enables or disables IP reveal for their account.

Revealing an IP address of a temporary account.

Listing the temporary accounts that are associated with one or more IP address ↗es (using the CIDR notation ↗ format).

Remember, even if a user is violating policy, avoid revealing personal information if possible. Use temporary account usernames rather than disclosing IP addresses directly, or give information such as same network/not same network or similar. If you do not want the user right anymore then please ask me or another administrator and it will be removed for you. You may also voluntarily give up access at any time by visiting Special:Preferences ↗. Happy editing! Extraordinary Writ (talk) 20:00, 30 May 2026 (UTC)

Alt account

Hi enbi, I found the account {{no ping|Alt of enbi}} and wanted to make sure it wasn't someone impersonating you. Emk9 (talk) 23:01, 18 June 2026 (UTC)

:That's my real alt account (sorry for not replying earlier, I've been very busy). I mostly use it for testing my upcoming anti-vandalism app on and I probably should have disclosed it before. Thanks for asking though. enbi [they/them] • [talk] 16:26, 21 June 2026 (UTC)
