Narutopedia:Sysop Requests

Protection-related requests

 * Indra Ōtsutsuki - due to edit war on putting the next week's episode preview of the Sharingan comparison. Kunoichi101 (talk) 05:58, July 9, 2016 (UTC)
 * All policy pages per discussion consensus.--Cerez 365 ™Hyūga Symbol.svg(talk) 13:39, July 15, 2016 (UTC)
 * ✅--TheUltimate3 Akimichi Symbol.svg (talk) 13:59, July 15, 2016 (UTC)
 * Boruto: Naruto Next Generations - due to someone who thought it was a "side-story", but it was official. Kunoichi101 (talk) 00:32, July 23, 2016 (UTC)
 * Hmm... (s)he appears to be doing this once every other day or so. So I don't think protecting the page would do any of us any good (unless (s)he restores his/her edits in rapid-succession), because (s)he could likely wait and just re-add the edits after the protection period is done. I'll see if telling him/her on his/her talkpage will do any good. 00:46, July 23, 2016 (UTC)
 * Omnibender's resolved the issue. 01:43, July 23, 2016 (UTC)
 * File:Download (2).jpg - Should be protected in the same way as File:Download.jpg. Just a generic filename for obviously bad file uploads. --Sajuuk 15:06, July 31, 2016 (UTC)
 * ✅ 15:11, July 31, 2016 (UTC)
 * Kunoichi Rumble: The Rivals Get Serious!: JouXIII refuses to use the talkpage, preferring to just constantly revert the contribution for nebulous reasons, despite being blatantly wrong and misinformed. A protection of about one week should be enough to cease this revert war, since Murali's trivia addition is completely valid as it doesn't matter in the slightest if something is mentioned elsewhere. --Sajuuk 18:56, September 22, 2016 (UTC)
 * ✅ --Sarutobii2 (talk) 19:04, September 22, 2016 (UTC)
 * ✅ --Sarutobii2 (talk) 19:04, September 22, 2016 (UTC)

Deletion-related requests

 * Can someone take a look at the articles tagged for deletion.--Cerez 365 ™Hyūga Symbol.svg(talk) 13:16, July 20, 2016 (UTC)
 * Will look into those soon. 14:12, July 20, 2016 (UTC)
 * ✅ - Will fix links from whatlinkshere then will delete the rest soon. 14:45, July 20, 2016 (UTC)
 * Question: Why exactly must the Fair use rationale template be purged altogther? What harm does it pose? What issue would there be if the template itself were simply redirected to ? 01:23, July 21, 2016 (UTC)
 * Fair use rationale is an old template that isn't needed any longer. Before the age of the customised uploader, all files were uploaded using the old template. However, the new uploader came along and we switched to File Information. The old template only continued to exist because it was transcluded into the new one, but that's not done any more (I copied the contents of the old template into the new one), so the old template is simply sitting there as a duplicate of a newer (and better) template. I absolutely abhor redirects in the template namespace, as it causes confusion to readers (since a redirect in templates causes it to be usable as an alternate for calling the template) --Sajuuk 08:28, July 21, 2016 (UTC)
 * Alrighty then. 08:30, July 21, 2016 (UTC)
 * Could someone delete the three (totally) pointless reupload revisions from Aizaz Arif on this image please? Thanks. --Sajuuk 16:51, September 19, 2016 (UTC)
 * ✅ 16:55, September 19, 2016 (UTC)

Blocking-related requests

 * - Repeated, excessive flaming in the forums. AsianReaper (talk) 18:54, July 7, 2016 (UTC)
 * ✅ --Sarutobii2 (talk) 15:44, July 11, 2016 (UTC)
 * - He is intentionally starting trouble, creating threads just to bash a character, ignores my warnings and posting nonsense. He is basically trolling. --Rai 水 (talk) 23:31, July 10, 2016 (UTC)
 * ✅ --Sarutobii2 (talk) 15:44, July 11, 2016 (UTC)
 * - Please unblock the user. They have been global-blocked from Wikia by the VSTF, so the local block is not needed or necessary, especially as the local block includes the blocking of IP: as a result, if a legitimate user picks up that IP address, they are not able to edit on the wiki for no reason. You may have to find the autoblock and remove it as well. --Sajuuk 14:46, July 14, 2016 (UTC)
 * - Removing content from pages, despite a warning on their talkpage. --Sajuuk 15:14, July 14, 2016 (UTC)
 * ✅ Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 15:26, July 14, 2016 (UTC)
 * - due to image updating violation Kunoichi101 (talk) 20:55, July 14, 2016 (UTC)
 * ✅ VSTF is taking care of this one. --Sajuuk 21:03, July 14, 2016 (UTC)
 * - Global blocked, so why is there a completely pointless local block in place? Do people not understand global blocks or something that they keep actioning unnecessary local blocks? --Sajuuk 08:19, July 15, 2016 (UTC)
 * - Constantly adding false information or speculation despite multiple reverts of their edits by other contributors. Doesn't seem to want to stop these edits. --Sajuuk 20:33, July 23, 2016 (UTC)
 * Just left a warning, in case this he's just not seeing the recent changes page before seeing this. No excuses now, his next edit like the recent ones, he gets a block. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 20:36, July 23, 2016 (UTC)
 * - Vandalism and obvious "inappropriate" uploads to Samui. --Sajuuk 15:02, July 31, 2016 (UTC)
 * ✅ 15:05, July 31, 2016 (UTC)
 * - Obvious Paladin78 sockpuppet is obvious. --Sajuuk 12:33, August 2, 2016 (UTC)
 * ✅ 14:15, August 2, 2016 (UTC)
 * - Another "obvious Paladin78 sockpuppet is obvious" report. When will this guy learn to stop making accounts here? --Sajuuk 20:03, August 18, 2016 (UTC)
 * ✅ by Dantman 16:17, August 19, 2016 (UTC)
 * - Not sure what the editor is trying to accomplish. Was asked to not flood RC with minor edits, but either didn't see message, or does not understand what was asked. Don't know if the user should be blocked or warned again, up to a sysop to decide. --Sajuuk 16:55, September 3, 2016 (UTC)
 * Given a warning for now. 17:18, September 3, 2016 (UTC)
 * or - They appear to be alternate accounts of each other, based on the wording of these independent edit summaries: here and here. EDIT: Both users appear to be alternating vandalism to the wiki. --Sajuuk 12:37, September 18, 2016 (UTC)
 * Wording is similar, I'll give you that. But looked at every single contribution of each user (including the deleted ones). Unless I missed something blatant, doesn't look like vandalism at all to me. To me it looks like a bold editor who simply isn't accustomed to editing on a wiki. 17:16, September 18, 2016 (UTC)
 * Did you check their deleted contributions? One of them was making a number of pointless articles and the other was just posting on the talkpage (within a minute of the other) to make a pointless complaint about the said page. Both of their contributions have mostly been unneeded and had to be reverted by other editors repeatedly. Maybe it's just a case of waiting a few days for them to prove that they're socks, given they were just editing repeatedly at the same times. --Sajuuk 17:19, September 18, 2016 (UTC)
 * "'But looked at every single contribution of each user (including the deleted ones) .'" The edits may have been unneeded, and there is reasonable suspicion for the two accounts to be socks of each other, but nothing I see from this is "vandalism" or for one or both accounts to get blocked without even a warning from a sysop. Again, to me it simply looks like a bold editor who isn't accustomed to rules on the wiki. EDIT: Technically, while I understand that once an editor edits on a wiki, it is his/her responsibility to be aware of the policies of a site, this looks like a newcomer to me. So left a message on the talkpage. If the situation worsens, then I'll consider blocking. 17:45, September 18, 2016 (UTC)
 * And now they're just causing work for everyone else with pointless edits and not reading the image policy. I suspect they're using VisualEditor, but despite a number of talkpage warnings, they don't seem to be reading them or if they are, they're just disregarding the policies on the wiki. I left a final message on their talkpage advising that if they continue these bad edits, they'll be blocked, but it's up to a sysop if they just want to block now and be done with it. --Sajuuk 14:25, September 20, 2016 (UTC)
 * Ugh. 15:05, September 20, 2016 (UTC)
 * Ugh. 15:05, September 20, 2016 (UTC)

Forum-related requests

 * request for closing the thread.
 * The mods can't exactly mind-read. You need to provide a link to the thread you want closed for the mods to examine. Also, make sure to sign your posts on talkpages (and this requests page) using the signature button or four tildes (~). --Sajuuk 10:49, August 16, 2016 (UTC)
 * Here's the required link http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:212002Namikazenaruto9 (talk)
 * ✅ --TheUltimate3 Akimichi Symbol.svg (talk) 13:18, August 16, 2016 (UTC)

Miscellaneous requests

 * Please revert this. ShallowShaddoll (talk) 14:33, July 15, 2016 (UTC)
 * Could someone look into the Common.js/Forum.js stuff, since it seems there's a syntax error with the code that is preventing the tags/JS stuff appearing properly. --Sajuuk 13:31, July 20, 2016 (UTC)
 * What exactly is the problem? 14:12, July 20, 2016 (UTC)
 * EDIT: Never mind. Looks like it's happening on some other wiki's, so probably someone broke a script on dev wiki without realising it. --Sajuuk 14:24, July 20, 2016 (UTC)
 * Ok then 15:01, July 20, 2016 (UTC)
 * NinjaSheik has requested me to have his rollback rights revoked. In user rights management, that's a group I can't change, so I believe a bureaucrat is required. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 21:45, July 20, 2016 (UTC)
 * She can remove the rights on her own, though. 22:03, July 20, 2016 (UTC)
 * Special:UserRights/NinjaSheik allows her to remove the rights herself. --Sajuuk 08:26, July 21, 2016 (UTC)
 * There may currently be some type of bug with the template. It depicts the whole "Characters in image" bullet point twice on a file for me.  08:42, July 21, 2016 (UTC)
 * Not a bug. Wrong usage of the template. Fixed. --Sajuuk 10:06, July 21, 2016 (UTC)
 * Can someone please direct me to a person who is a higher administrator around here, I'd like to lodge a formal complaint.
 * What exactly is your complaint anyway? It's likely it can be solved without needing a sysop involved. --Sajuuk 16:55, July 22, 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm a "higher administrator". What is the complaint? 17:02, July 22, 2016 (UTC)
 * Boruto: Naruto Next Generations - can someone look over the chapters? they're not in order Kunoichi101 (talk) 18:47, July 24, 2016 (UTC)
 * ✅--~Ultimate Supreme  18:52, July 24, 2016 (UTC)
 * Hey guys, the Sadara Uchiha infobox needs a serious fix. It is listing Sarada herself as a cousin, Sakura Uchiha as mother, and Sakura Haruno as aunt. Since I don't have permission to edit it, can somebody fix this huge family problem?
 * This is because some people have been misled into believing that the infobox allows it, but the infobox does not support it in any way. I have restored the original naming structure and hopefully people will learn not to do it. "Time" will not make it update. It can be reverted to the old names if a fix for the bug is found. --Sajuuk 10:38, August 23, 2016 (UTC)
 * Excuse me I was wondering if we could change Naruto's infobox image from part 1 with a newer part 1 image I believe that I found a pretty good one that looks like his part 1 image but is of greater resolution. I ask this because some charcters part 1 images have change to better ones so I was wondering why not his too?--Tuxedo12 (talk) 01:15, September 16, 2016 (UTC)
 * This is a talk page matter. --Sarutobii2 (talk) 03:27, September 16, 2016 (UTC)
 * Can a sysop please leave JouXIII a warning regarding his behaviour and editing practices? He has consistently ignored multiple user requests (such as to direct his grievances towards the article talkpage and to provide valid reasons in the edit summary when reverting other people's contributions), to stop revert warring (which he does on a near daily basis, usually for his own made-up/nebulous reasonings) and has a habit of making personal attacks against users (just recently, he called an entire user's completely valid and helpful contribution history "worthless": where does he get off saying things like this to people who do more than him for this wiki?). At least two sysops have told him to stop, and I've also made a very reasonable request regarding his lack of using edit summaries when reverting vandalism or bad edits, which he has successfully demonstrated to have ignored (along with the other requests on his talkpage). This has gone on for too long and he needs to be informed that his behaviour is becoming increasingly disruptive to the wiki. I don't care that he knows some Japanese, that alone does not give him any free license to just abuse the site and its editors for his own goals. Thanks. --Sajuuk 19:10, September 22, 2016 (UTC)
