Use a colon instead of a period

Could User:Ahecht/Scripts/pageswap-core.js please be updated so that when one of the common move reasons at the "Swap" form is selected, it will be followed by a colon instead of a period in the move log entries (like at Special:Redirect/logid/164530745, for example)? The behavior is currently inconsistent with the one at Special:MovePage, where a colon (not a period) would appear in the move log entries, e.g., at Special:Redirect/logid/164552365. GTrang (talk) 00:59, 19 September 2024 (UTC)

@GTrang I've implemented that in the sandbox version. Feel free to try it out. It will get copied over to the main script the next time I am making revisions. --Ahecht (TALK

Administrator Elections: Call for Candidates

Administrator Elections | Call for Candidates

The administrator elections process has officially started! Interested editors are encouraged to self-nominate or arrange to be nominated by reviewing the instructions at Wikipedia:Administrator elections/October 2024/Call for candidates.

Here is the schedule:

• October 8–14 - Candidate sign-up (we are here)
• October 22–24 - Discussion phase
• October 25–31 - SecurePoll voting phase

Please note the following:

• The requirements to run are identical to RFA—a prospective candidate must be extended confirmed.
• Prospective candidates are advised to become familar with the community's expectations of adminstrators, which are much higher than the minimum requirement of having extended confirmed status. This includes reviewing successful and unsuccessful RFAs, reading the essay Wikipedia:Advice for RfA candidates, and possibly requesting an optional poll on their chances of passing.
• The process will have a one week call for candidates phase, a one week pause to set up SecurePoll, a three-day period of public discussion, followed by 7 days of no public discussion and a private vote using SecurePoll.
• The outcomes of this process are identical to making requests for adminship. There is no official difference between an administrator appointed through RFA or administrator elections.
• Administrator elections are also a valid means of regaining adminship for de-sysopped editors.

Ask any questions about the process at the talk page. A separate user talk message will be sent to official candidates with additional information about the process.

To avoid sending too many messages, this will be the last mass message sent about administrator elections. If you are interested in the process, please make sure to watchlist the appropriate pages. A watchlist notice will be added when the discussion phase opens, and again when the voting phase opens.

Nomination of AEK Athens F.C. results in European football for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article AEK Athens F.C. results in European football is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/AEK Athens F.C. results in European football until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article until the discussion has finished.

@S.A. Julio My only role in the creation of these pages was splitting them off from AEK Athens F.C. in European football for technical reasons after BEN917 added them. I would suggest leaving a notification on their talk page as well. --Ahecht (TALK

Admin elections

Hello friend. If you intend to run in the admin elections, I think you'll probably want to remake your candidate page. It looks like you created Wikipedia:Administrator elections/October 2024/Candidates/YOUR USERNAME HERE but it ended up messed up. Probably best to start from scratch. Let me know if you need any help. Thank you. –Novem Linguae (talk) 22:26, 10 October 2024 (UTC)

@Novem Linguae I created that page intentionally as a warning message, the same way that Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/USERNAME is a warning message. --Ahecht (TALK

Administrator Elections: Candidate instructions

Administrator Elections | Instructions for candidates

Thank you for choosing to run in the October 2024 administrator elections. This bulletin contains some important information about the next stages of the election process.

As a reminder, the schedule of the election is:

• October 15–21: SecurePoll setup phase
• October 22–24: Discussion phase
• October 25–31: SecurePoll voting phase
• November 1–?: Scrutineering phase

We are currently in the SecurePoll setup phase. Your candidate subpage will remain closed to questions and discussion. However, this is an excellent opportunity for you to recruit nominators (if you want them) and have them place their nomination statements, and a good time for you to answer the standard three questions, if you have not done so already. We recommend you spend the SecurePoll setup phase from October 15–21 getting your candidate page polished and ready for the next phase.

The discussion phase will take place from October 22–24. Your candidate subpage will open to the public and they will be permitted to discuss you and ask you formal questions, in the same style as a request for adminship (RfA). Please make sure you are around on those dates to answer the formal questions in a timely manner.

On October 25, we will start the voting phase. The candidate subpages will close again to public questions and discussion, and everyone will have a week to use the SecurePoll software to vote, which uses a secret ballot. Anyone can see who has voted, but not who they voted for. You are permitted and encouraged to vote in the election, including voting for yourself. Please note that the vote tallies cannot be made public until after voting has ended and as such, it will not be possible for you to see your tally during the election. The suffrage requirements are different from those at RfA.

Once voting concludes, we will begin the scrutineering phase, which will last for an indeterminate amount of time, perhaps a week or two. Once everything is certified, the results will be posted on the main election page. In order to be granted adminship, you must have received at least 70% support, calculated as support ÷ (support + oppose). As this is a vote and not a consensus, there are no bureaucrat discussions ("'crat chats").

Any questions or issues can be asked on the election talk page. Thank you for your participation as a candidate, and best of luck.

You're receiving this message because you are a candidate in the October 2024 administrator elections.

Our Admin Election Test

Hello there. As we're preparing to move from one stage to the next, this is just a quick note from one member of the test group to another, wishing you well in the process of this new alternative to RfA. It seems that there are more of us in this group than some in the community anticipated, so i hope that doesn't make the experience any the worse for all of us. Whatever our individual results, i thank you, along with the rest, for stepping up and testing this process; happy days, ~ Lindsay^Hello 07:14, 21 October 2024 (UTC)

Template:POTD/2024-11-07

Hello, please request a deletion of the template or move it to another date (round-robin it) because the image used, File:Narva asv2022-04 img09 Castle.jpg, is to not be used on the main page due to it being largely unsourced. Please see WP:POTD/Unused for more information on it. Cowboygilbert - (talk) ♥ 04:10, 26 October 2024 (UTC)

@Cowboygilbert I had improved the sourcing on the article a bit, but if you feel it's insufficient I could rewrite the blurb to be about Narva instead. --Ahecht (TALK
PAGE) 19:20, 26 October 2024 (UTC)

@Ahecht, I can still see unsourced paragraphs. I don’t think Narva would be a good fit for the image as it’s not describing it’s direct characteristics or about the castle but about the city in which it’s in. If the photo was a cityscape of Narva than it would make sense as Narva would be it’s direct article. Cowboygilbert - (talk) ♥ 20:38, 26 October 2024 (UTC)
