Can you do all the Wiki Backup and paste everything here? Because it's less than 1.5K of articles, it may not be so hard to save. And P.S. Although I am "Culumon" on Screamer Wikia, when I confirm that I will download all the original content, I will register with my real name that I use to access the Internet. '''Culumon''' mode Ip 00:15, 20 August 2019 (UTC)

I tried to do much of that, however, the tool is not working at the moment.
== Do you ever plan on fixing the wiki? ==
[[User:Lawiki1534|Lawiki1534]] ([[User talk:Lawiki1534|talk]]) 00:22, 20 August 2019 (UTC)


:All right, you managed to backup everything, congratulations. Now I can do good here. And yes, I am "uma Culumon", but I used that name to get into Wikis related to Kawaiis pets, I'm a man in fact, although my real name is, Orlando Neto. But on the Internet, I'm just the Dragomaniaco. [[User:Dragomaniaco|Dragomaniaco]] ([[User talk:Dragomaniaco|talk]]) 12:00, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
It's been a while now and nothing has been fixed, how long will this be?

Is it possible for me to get the "rollback" tools? With this tool, if you have a SPAM attack here, or if any user is cursing the other, I can quickly revert, it is the only tool you can trust 100% of me to use. [[User:Dragomaniaco|Dragomaniaco]] ([[User talk:Dragomaniaco|talk]]) 12:20, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
: Honestly, I don't ever have the time due to working 40+ hours a week. I do still fix or patch minor stuff and as I'm not sure I know of every bug on the wiki, I may make a JIRA. [[User:Lawiki1534|Lawiki1534]] ([[User talk:Lawiki1534|talk]]) 03:10, 2 July 2022 (CEST)
*I've given you them, as well as all page access.
:: completely understandable. The only bugs I have noticed are that I can't see the add to watchlist button and the hover previews dont work. There might be more but for now that's all I've managed to spot.

==I'm thinking of removing the featured poll ==
I see we have ran out of poll ideas and nobody cares about the polls anymore. I'm considering maybe replacing it with "Featured Media", that is, a video, image, or maybe even a news article related to content on this site. Thoughts? --[[User:Pmb1226|Pmb1226]] [[File:Whitepowder.gif|25px|link=]] ([[User talk:Pmb1226|talk]])  23:29, 15 August 2022 (CEST)
:Possibly, but polls do help engagement. [[User:Lawiki1534|Lawiki1534]] ([[User talk:Lawiki1534|talk]]) 00:17, 16 August 2022 (CEST)


==There seems to be no editing session to put automatic category==
== IP banning ==
When you have plenty of time, and you already know the ways to include extra editing tools, you can also include a quick way to place "categories" to help speed up a good article if someone starts creating. [[User:Dragomaniaco|Dragomaniaco]] ([[User talk:Dragomaniaco|talk]]) 00:03, 21 August 2019 (UTC)
*That should be there once I get the visual editor to work. [[User:Lawiki1534|Lawiki1534]] ([[User talk:Lawiki1534|talk]]) 00:06, 21 August 2019 (UTC)


:I liked the green color in the links that were blue. If you can also change the color of the final word "Screamer Wiki" to green (Wiki only), it will match the Site perfectly. [[User:Dragomaniaco|Dragomaniaco]] ([[User talk:Dragomaniaco|talk]]) 18:53, 21 August 2019 (UTC)
What's with the ip bans? They only last for one day before it becomes available again? --[[User:Pmb1226|Pmb1226]] [[File:Whitepowder.gif|25px|link=]] ([[User talk:Pmb1226|talk]])
:That's the MediaWiki autoblock default. If you need to ban for longer, just CheckUser them and ban their ip separately. [[User:Angeleno|Angeleno]] ([[User talk:Angeleno|talk]]) 13:05, 18 August 2022 (PDT)


::Here's almost a perfect site for users to start creating new Screamers <s>almost all straight on YouTube, he-he</s> and Shock Sites videos. But you only have to enable the "categories", maybe if you copy the codes from [http://malucopedia.org/wiki/Especial:P%C3%A1ginas_especiais this Wiki here], you can be able to enable the categories, because there I edit and have ways to instantly place a category, although I still need to type the name manually where to categorize.

==hazomo is a gigantic prick==
:::What do you mean by that? We already have [[Special:SpecialPages]] with the same info. As for an extension that would allow you to quickly add categories, MediaWiki [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:Category_extensions doesn't seem to] have something like that. [[User:Lawiki1534|Lawiki1534]] ([[User talk:Lawiki1534|talk]]) 17:10, 25 August 2019 (UTC)
recently this morning one of the screamer wiki discord members (pickadeli) came out saying that was being manipulated by fergi
one of the members asked hazomo to ban fergi
hazomo kept making fun of this situation and he did not take it seriously
he ended up banning me, qx1. pickadeli and one more who i don't remember his name
he also purged the main chat to get rid of the evidence
unban us and ban this selfish motherfucker
:Hazomo's been banned, you (and everyone else) has been unbanned. [[User:Angeleno|Angeleno]] ([[User talk:Angeleno|talk]]) 03:48, 10 September 2022 (MST)


:::Actually that Wiki that I showed you has the programming of use of the category, I just don't know what MediaWiki would be this programming, maybe you can know, because despite being Brazilian the Site, but all the programming needs to be standard English, with exception of the name "categoria", which would be "category" here.

== Template Restore Request ==
== Should visual editor be disabled? ==


Angrybirdsfan2005: Hello, I would like for the Malicious Scripts Template to be restored due to it being important.
It messes up the comments on pages and some new editors might not understand.


==About these SPAMS==
[[User:Tankman fan 44|Tankman fan 44]] ([[User talk:Tankman fan 44|talk]]) 09:10, 4 November 2022 (MST)
Em primeiro lugar, muito obrigado pela promoção, agora vou ficar mais ativo por aqui. E sobre esses SPAMS, é bem normal ocorrer esses tipos de ataque, mas podes diminuir bastante eles, programando os "filtro de edição" que impede que um programa espalhe esses SPAMS, algumas Wikis até aplica auto-Ban quem aplica esses SPAMS, só não sei se aqui podem bloquear automativamente um alvo desses, mas pelo menos vai diminuir bastante os ataques, quando programar os filtros daqui.
:Probably not. [[User:Angeleno|Angeleno]] ([[User talk:Angeleno|talk]]) 12:01, 4 November 2022 (MST)


Translation:<br>
==Early revisions==
Firstly, thank you very much for the promotion, now I will be more active around here. And about these SPAMS, it is quite normal to occur these types of attacks, but you can greatly decrease them by programming the "edit filter" that prevents a program from spreading these SPAMS, some Wikis even auto-ban those who apply these SPAMS, just don't I know if they can automatically block such a target here, but at least it will greatly reduce the attacks when programming the filters here. [[User:Dragomaniaco|Dragomaniaco]] ([[User talk:Dragomaniaco|talk]]) 14:33, 8 September 2019 (UTC)
*[[File:2011_revision.png]]


:Taking a look at the special pages, I found [https://wiki.screamerfanbase.com/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Tag-AntiSpam&action=edit&redlink=1 this link here], which may help to prevent certain spam, I just won't mess, because I never used this kind of function. [[User:Dragomaniaco|Dragomaniaco]] ([[User talk:Dragomaniaco|talk]]) 14:39, 8 September 2019 (UTC)
How could Template:Bigcat be imported in 2011? Mediawiki glitch? --[[User:Pmb1226|Pmb1226]] [[File:Whitepowder.gif|25px|link=]] ([[User talk:Pmb1226|talk]])
::Probably in the future, will use. Enabling CAPTCHA helped make sure no new bots would create an account here though. Also, with admin, you can create your own code too. [[User:Lawiki1534|Lawiki1534]] ([[User talk:Lawiki1534|talk]]) 19:00, 8 September 2019 (UTC)
:I think it's because the template was imported from wikipedia, so older edits appear. [[User:Angeleno|Angeleno]] ([[User talk:Angeleno|talk]]) 00:33, 5 November 2022 (MST)


==About the new editing tool==
==Favicon request==
Agora sim, tem uma ferramenta PERFEITA para a edição, apesar de ainda não ter como colocar categoria automatica, mas eu acredito que com o costume poderemos colocar manualmente elas nos artigos, mas o que importa é que a nova ferramenta de edição já tem as ferramentas necessárias. Só falta é apenas mexer no "editor base" e remover essa ferramenta inútil que colocou, caso alguém queira usar a versão basica do edito, que não vai ser o meu caso, a não para usar em páginas de discussão de usuários.
*[[File:Ghost.png|50px]]


Translation:<br>
Because this edited version with the color tint appears in the site logo, I feel it makes sense to have this version instead of the standard one we currently have. What do you think? --[[User:Pmb1226|Pmb1226]] ([[User talk:Pmb1226|talk]])
Now yes, there is a PERFECT tool for editing, although it still has no way to put automatic category, but I believe that with custom we can manually put them in articles, but what matters is that the new editing tool already has the tools needed. All that is left is to just tinker with the "base editor" and remove this useless tool you put in if someone wants to use the basic version of the edict, which won't be my case, other than for use on user talk pages.
:I changed it. We'll see how it looks. [[User:Angeleno|Angeleno]] ([[User talk:Angeleno|talk]]) 18:34, 5 November 2022 (MST)


[[File:Ferramenta inutil.jpg|center]]
==Share feature==
I was reading about ways to increase seo and web traffic and found that adding a share button increases the number of views on a page and overall traffic. There's a mediawiki extension [https://mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:WikiShare here] which allows a page to be easily shared to any social media via the sidebar. It says it's in development but its still worth a try + its very useful.


Well, that's it. [[User:Dragomaniaco|Dragomaniaco]] ([[User talk:Dragomaniaco|talk]]) 12:38, 13 September 2019 (UTC)
Also the favicon still remains the same even after it was changed, kinda strange --[[User:Pmb1226|Pmb1226]] ([[User talk:Pmb1226|talk]])
: Yeah this should help with people that are stuck on FANDOM (and don't want to leave), as for the bar on the bottom, that's going to be pretty tricky to remove since this editor relies on the Source editor to work. [[User:Lawiki1534|Lawiki1534]] ([[User talk:Lawiki1534|talk]]) 00:26, 14 September 2019 (UTC)


==Problems total number of top pages==
:You can turn the extension off, I added the links somewhere else --[[User:Pmb1226|Pmb1226]] ([[User talk:Pmb1226|talk]])
Eu estava olhando as [https://wiki.screamerfanbase.com/Special:Statistics estatisticas das páginas] para se ver se estamos crescendo em número de artigos, mas estranhamente diz que estamos com menos de 350 artigos em namespace principal, mesmo aqui já ter importado todos os artigos principais. Por que não está mostrando o número real de artigos?


Translation:<br>
==External links==
I was looking at the [https://wiki.screamerfanbase.com/Special:Statistics statistics of Pages] to see if we are growing in number of articles, but strangely says we are under 350 articles in main namespace, even here already have imported all major articles. Why not showing the actual number of articles? [[User:Dragomaniaco|Dragomaniaco]] ([[User talk:Dragomaniaco|talk]]) 01:30, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
This site has many clickable external links to other sites (like wikipedia for example), but when they are clicked they open in the same tab instead of a new one, which lowers average page count and time spent on the site. Should we make it so that when an external link is clicked, it opens in a brand new tab so that screamer.wiki will still be open? --[[User:Pmb1226|Pmb1226]] ([[User talk:Pmb1226|talk]])
:Yes [[User:Angeleno|Angeleno]] ([[User talk:Angeleno|talk]]) 20:19, 14 November 2022 (MST)
::This setting might work if configued, but not sure: https://mediawiki.org/wiki/Snippets/Open_external_links_in_new_window<br>
::If it doesn't seem to work right I might make a mediawiki account and just ask there. --[[User:Pmb1226|Pmb1226]] ([[User talk:Pmb1226|talk]])
:::It seems to have worked. [[User:Angeleno|Angeleno]] ([[User talk:Angeleno|talk]]) 16:44, 15 November 2022 (MST)
::::Great! Just one thing is that the interwiki links (like wikipedia) still seem to open in the same tab, so maybe editing the interwiki page and adding some of the previous code might get it to work. --[[User:Pmb1226|Pmb1226]] ([[User talk:Pmb1226|talk]])


:Not sure why that is happening, but I assume that a content page only counts pages with images on it. [[User:Lawiki1534|Lawiki1534]] ([[User talk:Lawiki1534|talk]]) 03:28, 16 September 2019 (UTC)

== Topic on old wiki regarding CSS ==
==Bitchute==
What happened to Screamer Wiki's bitchute channel and why was it banned? --[[User:Pmb1226|Pmb1226]] ([[User talk:Pmb1226|talk]])
:It was banned supposedly for harassment. We tried to appeal, but they never responded. [[User:Angeleno|Angeleno]] ([[User talk:Angeleno|talk]]) 05:36, 11 December 2022 (MST)
:::Where there videos on the channel? And who did we interact with that they found "harassing". --[[User:Pmb1226|Pmb1226]] ([[User talk:Pmb1226|talk]])
::::Yes, however, most of the videos were crossposted to YouTube, Odysee, or the wiki directly. We didn't interact with anyone there, but I guess BitChute viewers didn't like screamers and shock sites on the main page. It was the Screamreuploads channel. [[User:Angeleno|Angeleno]] ([[User talk:Angeleno|talk]]) 08:14, 11 December 2022 (MST)


I posted a message on your wall on the FANDOM site, however it was closed before I could see your reply.
==Polls==
I've noticed that logged out users are not able to vote on the featured poll, thus why results are so low. Can this be fixed? --[[User:Pmb1226|Pmb1226]] ([[User talk:Pmb1226|talk]])
:That was deliberate. There is a bug currently on AJAXPoll (and with comments) where all logged out users, instead of having a unique actor ID, their actor ID gets set to 0 meaning that someone without an account with an IP address of 192.168.0.1 that attempts to vote on a poll that anonymous user 174.33.198.2 voted on, will show to 192.168.0.1 that they already voted, despite never doing so, due to both of their actor IDs being 0.
:This was a bug with these extensions since MediaWiki 1.35 if I recall correctly. I attempted to fix it myself or install an older version, but that was not feasible. [[User:Angeleno|Angeleno]] ([[User talk:Angeleno|talk]]) 21:27, 11 December 2022 (MST)
:https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T279502


Would there be any way for the bureaucrats to get the ability to access and modify the website's root directory?
==CommentStream==
I found a comment extension which is newer and not buggy/severly vulnerable like the one we currently have:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:CommentStreams
Should it be implemented? --[[User:Pmb1226|Pmb1226]] ([[User talk:Pmb1226|talk]])
:It's been tested in the past. The reasons for removing it at the time was due to the extension using your Full Name (if entered) instead of your username. There is no documentation on how to change it. [[User:Angeleno|Angeleno]] ([[User talk:Angeleno|talk]]) 21:59, 14 December 2022 (MST)
::Fixed it. It's still unfortunate that you have to change a line in the code (CommentStreamsFactory.php) to do it. [[User:Angeleno|Angeleno]] ([[User talk:Angeleno|talk]]) 22:38, 14 December 2022 (MST)

There was a misunderstanding about that memorable Ronnie McNutt quote, i never made fun of it and i will never make ever joke about someone taking his own life unreasonably.

== Oh Wow, look we got here! ==
==As I can no longer redirect dead videos to "deleted", they need to put an end to lost videos==
Bom é assim, eu notei que desde o ano passado, todos os meus redirect para deleted: foram redirecionado ao nome normal do artigo, mesmo de videos mortos no YouTube que nunca teve um web arquivo, tipo [[Sensei.EXE|esse video]] e [[BABY SHARK JUMPSCARE|esse também]], entre outros. Eu não quero irritar os Sysops que só estão fazendo o seu trabalho por aqui, mas também sabe que esses videos deletado não vale a pena preservar aqui, se não tem mais meio em recuperar. Já temos mais de 1500 artigos screamers, não precisamos ter salvo artigos, que foi criado na preguiça no YouTube e que está deletado para sempre. Mas pode preservar artigos de videos deletados que, pelo menos tenha um link salvo do seu screamer, provando que já teve existencia do tal video.


Encyclopedia Dramatica has been returned today, with shock sites and offensive shit.

Well that's it, I noticed that since last year, all my redirects to deleted: were redirected to the normal name of the article, even from dead videos on YouTube that never had a web archive, like [[Sensei.EXE|this video]] and [[BABY SHARK JUMPSCARE|this one too]], among others. I don't want to irritate the Sysops who are just doing their job here, but you also know that these deleted videos are not worth preserving here, if there is no way to recover them. We already have more than 1500 screamers articles, we don't need to have saved articles, which was created in laziness on YouTube and which is deleted forever. But you can preserve deleted video articles that at least have a saved link of your screamer, proving that the video already existed.

Do you ever plan on fixing the wiki?

It's been a while now and nothing has been fixed, how long will this be?

--Tankman fan 44 (talk) 04:13, 1 July 2022 (CEST)

Honestly, I don't ever have the time due to working 40+ hours a week. I do still fix or patch minor stuff and as I'm not sure I know of every bug on the wiki, I may make a JIRA. Lawiki1534 (talk) 03:10, 2 July 2022 (CEST)
completely understandable. The only bugs I have noticed are that I can't see the add to watchlist button and the hover previews dont work. There might be more but for now that's all I've managed to spot.

Delete this account

Please delete my old account and ill make myself a new one; and it will be named User:Nouxia. --SkyBlueCat (talk) 09:37, 7 July 2022 (CEST)

And also can i have a permission to edit articles? --Nouxia (talk) 09:48, 7 July 2022 (CEST)
You can't delete accounts on MediaWiki, but I did courtesy vanish you. Lawiki1534 (talk) 04:11, 8 July 2022 (CEST)

Why

Why did you delete my page I spend along time working on it

I didn't think it counted as a shock site. Lawiki1534 (talk) 03:57, 29 July 2022 (CEST)

I'm thinking of removing the featured poll

I see we have ran out of poll ideas and nobody cares about the polls anymore. I'm considering maybe replacing it with "Featured Media", that is, a video, image, or maybe even a news article related to content on this site. Thoughts? --Pmb1226 (talk) 23:29, 15 August 2022 (CEST)

Possibly, but polls do help engagement. Lawiki1534 (talk) 00:17, 16 August 2022 (CEST)

IP banning

What's with the ip bans? They only last for one day before it becomes available again? --Pmb1226 (talk)

That's the MediaWiki autoblock default. If you need to ban for longer, just CheckUser them and ban their ip separately. Angeleno (talk) 13:05, 18 August 2022 (PDT)

hazomo is a gigantic prick

recently this morning one of the screamer wiki discord members (pickadeli) came out saying that was being manipulated by fergi one of the members asked hazomo to ban fergi hazomo kept making fun of this situation and he did not take it seriously he ended up banning me, qx1. pickadeli and one more who i don't remember his name he also purged the main chat to get rid of the evidence unban us and ban this selfish motherfucker

Hazomo's been banned, you (and everyone else) has been unbanned. Angeleno (talk) 03:48, 10 September 2022 (MST)

Quick question

What does the japanese text on this logo say? --Pmb1226 (talk)

"Screamer Wiki" Angeleno (talk) 18:47, 17 October 2022 (MST)


Should visual editor be disabled?

It messes up the comments on pages and some new editors might not understand.

Tankman fan 44 (talk) 09:10, 4 November 2022 (MST)

Probably not. Angeleno (talk) 12:01, 4 November 2022 (MST)

Early revisions

How could Template:Bigcat be imported in 2011? Mediawiki glitch? --Pmb1226 (talk)

I think it's because the template was imported from wikipedia, so older edits appear. Angeleno (talk) 00:33, 5 November 2022 (MST)

Favicon request

Because this edited version with the color tint appears in the site logo, I feel it makes sense to have this version instead of the standard one we currently have. What do you think? --Pmb1226 (talk)

I changed it. We'll see how it looks. Angeleno (talk) 18:34, 5 November 2022 (MST)

Share feature

I was reading about ways to increase seo and web traffic and found that adding a share button increases the number of views on a page and overall traffic. There's a mediawiki extension here which allows a page to be easily shared to any social media via the sidebar. It says it's in development but its still worth a try + its very useful.

Also the favicon still remains the same even after it was changed, kinda strange --Pmb1226 (talk)

You can turn the extension off, I added the links somewhere else --Pmb1226 (talk)

External links

This site has many clickable external links to other sites (like wikipedia for example), but when they are clicked they open in the same tab instead of a new one, which lowers average page count and time spent on the site. Should we make it so that when an external link is clicked, it opens in a brand new tab so that screamer.wiki will still be open? --Pmb1226 (talk)

Yes Angeleno (talk) 20:19, 14 November 2022 (MST)
This setting might work if configued, but not sure: https://mediawiki.org/wiki/Snippets/Open_external_links_in_new_window
If it doesn't seem to work right I might make a mediawiki account and just ask there. --Pmb1226 (talk)
It seems to have worked. Angeleno (talk) 16:44, 15 November 2022 (MST)
Great! Just one thing is that the interwiki links (like wikipedia) still seem to open in the same tab, so maybe editing the interwiki page and adding some of the previous code might get it to work. --Pmb1226 (talk)

Goatse404

Do you have the goatse 404 image without the drawn hands? I can try to edit it better. --Pmb1226 (talk)

Here you go. File:404NoGoatse.png Angeleno (talk) 18:14, 23 November 2022 (MST)

Bitchute

What happened to Screamer Wiki's bitchute channel and why was it banned? --Pmb1226 (talk)

It was banned supposedly for harassment. We tried to appeal, but they never responded. Angeleno (talk) 05:36, 11 December 2022 (MST)
Where there videos on the channel? And who did we interact with that they found "harassing". --Pmb1226 (talk)
Yes, however, most of the videos were crossposted to YouTube, Odysee, or the wiki directly. We didn't interact with anyone there, but I guess BitChute viewers didn't like screamers and shock sites on the main page. It was the Screamreuploads channel. Angeleno (talk) 08:14, 11 December 2022 (MST)

Polls

I've noticed that logged out users are not able to vote on the featured poll, thus why results are so low. Can this be fixed? --Pmb1226 (talk)

That was deliberate. There is a bug currently on AJAXPoll (and with comments) where all logged out users, instead of having a unique actor ID, their actor ID gets set to 0 meaning that someone without an account with an IP address of 192.168.0.1 that attempts to vote on a poll that anonymous user 174.33.198.2 voted on, will show to 192.168.0.1 that they already voted, despite never doing so, due to both of their actor IDs being 0.
This was a bug with these extensions since MediaWiki 1.35 if I recall correctly. I attempted to fix it myself or install an older version, but that was not feasible. Angeleno (talk) 21:27, 11 December 2022 (MST)
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T279502

CommentStream

I found a comment extension which is newer and not buggy/severly vulnerable like the one we currently have: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:CommentStreams Should it be implemented? --Pmb1226 (talk)

It's been tested in the past. The reasons for removing it at the time was due to the extension using your Full Name (if entered) instead of your username. There is no documentation on how to change it. Angeleno (talk) 21:59, 14 December 2022 (MST)
Fixed it. It's still unfortunate that you have to change a line in the code (CommentStreamsFactory.php) to do it. Angeleno (talk) 22:38, 14 December 2022 (MST)

Name change

Can you change my name into "Likeicare"? Special:RenameUser gives me an error. --IT (talk) 07:37, 1 February 2023 (MST)

THat's the thing with the rename tool. You cannot rename yourself with it. Renamed. Angeleno (talk) 08:19, 1 February 2023 (MST)

Logo idea

Is this fitting? https://screamer.wiki/File:Screamer_Logo.png

I don't think so. Not sure what the tophhat means either. Angeleno (talk) 18:13, 11 February 2023 (MST)
How's this?
https://screamer.wiki/File:Screamer_Logo.png --Pmb1226 (talk)
That one's better, for sure. Although the ghost has become an iconic part of the wiki. Angeleno (talk) 11:14, 12 February 2023 (MST)
It is under copyright, and Apple could sue for using it without paying. In case this happens, the new one can be used as a backup. --Pmb1226 (talk)
Correct, as was discussed in the Discord. The ghost would be a newly made vector, and there is already an order that bans new graphics from being made with the emojis. Angeleno (talk) 12:54, 12 February 2023 (MST)

User rights restore

There was a misunderstanding about that memorable Ronnie McNutt quote, i never made fun of it and i will never make ever joke about someone taking his own life unreasonably. All i did was to use his last words as his memorable quote to remember McNutt himself and I never intended to offend anyone of what i have present to them. I finally understand the responsibilities of a bureaucrat does, but i was blind to see it. Sorry for what i have done, I've changed my own ways ever since i discovered who i was in the past. Likeicare (talk) 05:24, 24 March 2023 (MST)

Okay. That's alright. Angeleno (talk) 09:59, 24 March 2023 (MST)
Response to Angeleno: I think he's talking about the change you made in the User rights log, he doesn't have the bureaucrat role anymore. I'm talking about the one that says "fix user rights" --Tankman fan 44 (talk) 18:09, 24 March 2023 (MST)
Bureaucrat revokation had nothing to do with your edits. More to do with bureaucrat being more of a misclick. Angeleno (talk) 19:13, 24 March 2023 (MST)

As I can no longer redirect dead videos to "deleted", they need to put an end to lost videos

Bom é assim, eu notei que desde o ano passado, todos os meus redirect para deleted: foram redirecionado ao nome normal do artigo, mesmo de videos mortos no YouTube que nunca teve um web arquivo, tipo esse video e esse também, entre outros. Eu não quero irritar os Sysops que só estão fazendo o seu trabalho por aqui, mas também sabe que esses videos deletado não vale a pena preservar aqui, se não tem mais meio em recuperar. Já temos mais de 1500 artigos screamers, não precisamos ter salvo artigos, que foi criado na preguiça no YouTube e que está deletado para sempre. Mas pode preservar artigos de videos deletados que, pelo menos tenha um link salvo do seu screamer, provando que já teve existencia do tal video.

Translation: Well that's it, I noticed that since last year, all my redirects to deleted: were redirected to the normal name of the article, even from dead videos on YouTube that never had a web archive, like this video and this one too, among others. I don't want to irritate the Sysops who are just doing their job here, but you also know that these deleted videos are not worth preserving here, if there is no way to recover them. We already have more than 1500 screamers articles, we don't need to have saved articles, which was created in laziness on YouTube and which is deleted forever. But you can preserve deleted video articles that at least have a saved link of your screamer, proving that the video already existed. Dragomaniaco (talk) 05:42, 20 May 2023 (MST)

That action was repealed, as long as the page is of decent quality. Angeleno (talk) 09:49, 20 May 2023 (MST)
