Hi BlackWidowMovie0000Editor, |

Greetings BrandomWM, congrats on being elected as a consul and I hope you prove your worthiness :) [[User:Harvici|<span style="font-family:Segoe print; color:#CC4E5C ; text-shadow:gray 0.2em 0.2em 0.4em;">Harvici</span>]] ([[User talk:Harvici|<span style="color:#228B22">''talk''</span>]]) 15:43, 30 April 2024 (UTC) |

Though TestWiki prides itself on having few official [[TestWiki:Policies|rules]], we ''do'' nonetheless have to have some policies together with [[w:WP:COMMONSENSE|common sense]] and established customs and conventions, and it's not clear from your recent edits and log actions that you've read some or all of them. I ''do'' appreciate that TestWiki's ''lack of rules'' and increased reliance on established customs and conventions and a healthy dose of common sense ''can'' be difficult for new users to comprehend or become accustomed to. And, to be clear, you've had several constructive and potentially useful contributions, notably the creation of the potentially useful [[TestWiki]] redirect to [[Main Page]] when linking to TestWiki's main page in an [[Special:Interwiki|interwiki]] wikilink without having to use a [[w:Help:Pipe trick|pipe trick]] and your creation of [[Template:Administrator]]. Having said that, your testing on [[TestWiki:Community portal]] with a [[TestWiki:Consuls|Consul]]-only template, as you did [[Special:Diff/31355|here]], and your [[Special:UserRights/BlackWidowMovie0000Editor|edit warring]] with a [[TestWiki:Consuls|Consul]] by repeatedly re-adding redundant user groups without ''asking'' for permission to have the arguably unnecessary duplicative user groups and, equally crucially, ''explaining'' your valid reason(s) for wanting to have these extra user groups are the most problematic. |

As such, as a [[TestWiki:Consuls|Consul]] action, with the agreement of my fellow [[TestWiki:Consuls|Consuls]] {{ping|RhinosF1|Reception123}}, I am imposing a TestWiki [[TestWiki:Editing restrictions|editing restriction]] prohibiting you from rerequesting rights for '''at least thirty (30) calendar days''' (inclusive of ''today''). When you rerequest rights, only a [[TestWiki:Consuls|Consul]] may grant rights, and you will be required to complete and pass a short five question quiz that will be based on any of our [[TestWiki:Policies|official policies]], with possibly one question based on [[w:WP:COMMONSENSE|common sense]]. To pass the quiz, you must pass with a score of 80% or better. There is no limit to the number of times you may rewrite the quiz, though the questions will be neither difficult or particularly challenging. |

Hello! I recently created a script that I tested on my own MediaWiki and found it to work fine. You can see it here: [[User:BZPN/MassRollback.js]]. Now I would like to turn it into a gadget, but first I will translate it into English. However, to turn it into a gadget, I need interface admin permission. Can I ask you to grant it? I learned how to do this on my own wiki, so I guess I won't destroy anything :). Have a nice day!

To log this restriction, you will note a short one second log entry in your [[Special:Log/rights|user rights log]]. Additionally, it will also be logged at [[TestWiki:Editing restrictions]], and I may reduce your 1 day block, again with the consent of the imposing Consul. |
|||
:P.S. I have already translated the script, and you can find its description here: [[User:BZPN/MassRollback]]. [[User:BZPN|<span style="font-size:85%;color:#f00;border:2.5px solid red;border-radius:15px;"> <b>BZPN</b> </span>]] 19:30, 12 August 2024 (UTC) |

:{{ping|Dmehus}} I thought I was allowed to get the rights back after the one-day block? Also, how do I log stuff in my user rights log? [[User:BlackWidowMovie0000Editor|BlackWidowMovie0000Editor]] ([[User talk:BlackWidowMovie0000Editor|talk]]) 22:21, 26 October 2020 (UTC) |

::{{ping|BlackWidowMovie0000Editor}} You ''were'' as part of the interim measures put in place. However, following discussions with Reception123 and RhinosF1, it was agreed that a longer period before requesting rights again, together with your completion of a Consul-prepared quiz, was the right approach. As to logging actions in one's user rights log, it's essentially like a [[w:WP:DUMMY|dummy edit]] whereby one adds a mostly useless user group for a short period (i.e., 1 second), and then annotates their reason with that very short user group grant. Hope that helps. [[mh:meta:User:Dmehus|Dmehus]] ([[User talk:Dmehus|talk]]) 22:26, 26 October 2020 (UTC) |

Request for interface admin[edit source]
Hello! I recently created a script that I tested on my own MediaWiki and found it to work fine. You can see it here: User:BZPN/MassRollback.js. Now I would like to turn it into a gadget, but first I will translate it into English. However, to turn it into a gadget, I need interface admin permission. Can I ask you to grant it? I learned how to do this on my own wiki, so I guess I won't destroy anything :). Have a nice day! BZPN 18:50, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
