User:EVula/admin
- Note: I recently was informed that this page looks like crap in Firefox. Not sure why, as it works just fine in Safari, which is what I use. I may try to fix it at some point.
Everything you need to know about me as an admin/bureaucrat, plus everything I need to reference to be an admin/bureaucrat. (purge)

If you're unhappy with some admin-ish thing I've done...
[edit]...I'd recommend you drop me a line on my talk page.
Actually, I'd recommend you take a deep breath, make sure I actually did screw up (entirely possible), then drop me a line.
Please, do not email me about admin stuff; I try to keep everything on-wiki if at all possible. If I've blocked you, there's always {{unblock}}; I also keep all blocked user talk pages on my watchlist, and will check back on them a few hours after I've left my notice.
Also, I am open to administrator recall. To see my criteria for recall, read User:EVula/opining/admin recall.
My admin info!
[edit]History
[edit]I was made an administrator on November 7, 2006. My RfA closed with a vote of 62/0/0. Near as I can tell, I'm admin #1,047.
My first RfB was closed as non-consensus on July 1, 2007; the second was also closed as non-consensus on 24 December, 2007. My third RfB passed (122/1/2) on 3 June, 2008.
I was granted Oversight privs after my election on February 16, 2009.

[edit]- Brentonrkaring (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) – On 2024 AFL season: vandalism after final warning. Continual vandalism or disruptive editing across a few pages, despite multiple warnings. 4TheWynne (talk • contribs) 13:23, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
User has been incorrectly or insufficiently warned. Re-report if the user resumes vandalising after being warned sufficiently. Worth noting the most recent warning was the HR LTA and not a real warning. Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 13:28, 24 August 2024 (UTC)

[edit]- Insaf Feedback PTI (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a misleading username. Perhaps it's being misinterpreted as related to Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf. — Saqib (talk I contribs) 21:25, 23 August 2024 (UTC)
Comment: Not sure I get why it is misleading, but given you have initiated a discussion with the user they will likely respond or change their username. Malinaccier (talk) 23:44, 23 August 2024 (UTC)
- This is a promotional username; see [1] where they state
This is the official account of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf
. It seems unlikely from this comment that the account is in the process of changing its username, plus Wikipedia should not have "official accounts" for organizations anyways. Helpful Raccoon (talk) 01:27, 24 August 2024 (UTC)

Keep monitoring the user, until their username is more clear.. There's an online reviewer called Aussie Food Reviews but it's not yet clear this account is representing that web page. Their sandbox rewrite of AussieMite was appropriately deleted; let's see what they do next. -- Euryalus (talk) 09:37, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
