Is that who I think it is?

@Tails Wx, sorry I've telported you here but recently on your talk page, that GoAnimator Matthew user, could that be Hurricane Allen's sock? The user made an account and instantly contacted you and Supportstorm's talk page. Additionally leaving a barnstar...

I don't want to accuse the user yet but what do you think? 🛧Layah50♪🛪 ( 話す? 一緒に飛ぼう！) 03:33, 17 June 2023 (UTC)

Yeah, that’s what I thought. I thought it was one of my mentees, but apparently that user didn’t show up on my dashboard, and the instant contacting made me suspicious too. They might be a sock, but I can’t rule out that it’s just a brand new user who is just learning how to use Wikipedia. I wouldn’t be against filing an SPI, either! Tails Wx 12:54, 17 June 2023 (UTC)

Aright, no accusations for now.

But, I'll keep my eyes on the user if there's any suspicious edits. 🛧Layah50♪🛪 ( 話す? 一緒に飛ぼう！) 05:15, 18 June 2023 (UTC)

Update: The user was confirmed as Allen's sockpuppet. 🛧Layah50♪🛪 ( 話す? 一緒に飛ぼう！) 05:47, 30 June 2023 (UTC)

That’s what I thought. Thanks for your help in reporting! I’ve been on vacation these days, which explains my lack of activity… Tails Wx 14:09, 8 July 2023 (UTC)

Archive help

This help request has been answered. If you need more help, you can ask another question on your talk page, contact the responding user(s) directly on their user talk page, or consider visiting the Teahouse.

Please help me with... Hello. I've just started archiving my talk page. However, the bot that does it started the archive from Archive 15. How can I make it start from one? Thanks! 🛧Layah50♪🛪 ( 話す? 一緒に飛ぼう！) 13:05, 10 July 2023 (UTC)

When you added the archive template you put in the starting counter at 15. I have fixed the issue so when the bot archives your page it should go to the correct locations. If you want more help, change the {{help me-helped}} back into a {{help me}}, stop by the Teahouse, or Wikipedia's live help channel, or the help desk to ask someone for assistance. Primefac (talk) 13:57, 10 July 2023 (UTC)

Thank you!

And sorry for me not realizing that.. 🛧Layah50♪🛪 ( 話す? 一緒に飛ぼう！) 14:02, 10 July 2023 (UTC)

About Sumy

Hello. I think my edit (Sumy) was constructive, and reverting it was a mistake. 188.163.104.39 (talk) 08:16, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

Actually, it wasn't constructive. Could you explain why you erased the Population title here? 🛧Layah50♪🛪 ( 話す? 一緒に飛ぼう！) 08:51, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

Welcome

Welcome to project QAI, Layah! -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:43, 26 July 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for the welcome @Gerda Arendt!

I'll do what I can to improve as many articles as possible! (and to defend Wikipedia against vandalism) 🛧Layah50♪🛪 ( 話す? 一緒に飛ぼう！) 00:14, 27 July 2023 (UTC)

Thank you, good plans. It's not quantity that counts ;) - I am happy about a new GA, Gabriele Schnaut. Everyday, I have a set of articles on top of my user page, - you could watch them for vandalism for the day, perhaps. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 05:14, 27 July 2023 (UTC)
