Translation request
[fontem recensere]Hello, Grufo.
Can you create an article about the American Democratic Vice Presidential candidate en:Tim Walz (Timotheus Iacobus Walz) in Latin Wikipedia, just like for the Republican Vice Presidential candidate Iacobus David Vance?
Yours sincerely, 31.200.11.5 12:48, 31 Augusti 2024 (UTC)
- Hi. I did not create the Iacobus David Vance page, I only corrected a few things, mostly of typographical nature. Of course a Timotheus Iacobus Walz page would be a nice thing to have. But asking users to do something for us usually rarely works. --Grufo (disputatio) 13:01, 31 Augusti 2024 (UTC)
- I understand. Thank you for the reply. I also posted the same question to the original uploader. Though I think he or she is a "one timer" and might not upload or edit again. 31.200.11.5 13:22, 31 Augusti 2024 (UTC)
- I do not know why the original author created Vance's page, but it is not to be excluded that they did it as a consequence of political affiliation (nothing is wrong with that, as long their contribution is encyclopedic), and if that is the case asking the same person to create the page of their political adversary will likely not work. --Grufo (disputatio) 13:27, 31 Augusti 2024 (UTC)
- That also later crossed my mind. I personally did not request a translation due to political reasons. I just thought that the other Vice Presidential candidate should also have an article in Latin Wikipedia. Never mind. 31.200.11.5 13:34, 31 Augusti 2024 (UTC)
- No problem. Let's see how the original author reacts. --Grufo (disputatio) 13:41, 31 Augusti 2024 (UTC)
- To my surprise, the original author uploaded the second article as well. I have thanked him or her and I thank you as well. 31.200.11.5 15:59, 31 Augusti 2024 (UTC)
- I am happy they did! :) --Grufo (disputatio) 16:01, 31 Augusti 2024 (UTC)

Nomination
[fontem recensere]Hi, Grufo. I just proposed you at Vicipaedia:Petitio magistratus/Grufo. When you have a spare moment, please go there and indicate your willingness -- thank you! Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 08:23, 7 Septembris 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you, Andrew! :-) --Grufo (disputatio) 08:46, 7 Septembris 2024 (UTC)
- As you may have noticed, you are elected nemine contradicente. An excellent result! I will now attempt to give you the appropriate permissions. I'm sorry I have been absent rather often on real world concerns, and this may continue for a while. Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 19:23, 15 Septembris 2024 (UTC)
- Done, I think. Next time you log in, verify if you have some unaccustomed powers. Notably, you should be able to delete a page (which should be helpful to you and to others who may need to have a page deleted), and protect a page from some groups of editors, and you should be able to block a user, named or anonymous. Tell me if I can help with anything. Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 19:36, 15 Septembris 2024 (UTC)
- Hooray! :-) You have absolutely nothing to apologize for, Andrew. I am very grateful for your sponsorship. I hope your real world concerns will soon calm down. --Grufo (disputatio) 21:19, 15 Septembris 2024 (UTC)
