Edit request

What template to use for any edit request? By the way, the logo should be shrunk to at least 250px. Qwertyxp2000 (talk) 10:21, 7 May 2015 (UTC)

Not this one, which is for protected pages only. Perhaps try Wikipedia:Graphics Lab? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 11:52, 7 May 2015 (UTC)
Thank you! Qwertyxp2000 (talk) 20:30, 7 May 2015 (UTC)

My IP blocked

@Berean Hunter:

@Berean Hunter:

My IP(s) is/are blocked and cannot edit on my computer. Please change the block of my IPs to make sure that I am able to edit with my account without being able to log in to my IP(s). Qwertyxp2000 (talk) 08:15, 7 May 2015 (UTC)

@Berean Hunter: Please, I cannot edit on my computer and would want to make good faith edits on it. Please can you change my IPs' blocks to anonblocks, because the sole purpose for blocking the IPs is to prevent sockpuppetry. I haven't made any bad faith edits otherwise. Qwertyxp2000 (talk) 09:28, 7 May 2015 (UTC)

  •   Done Now go and sock no more. Behave yourself. :)
     — Berean Hunter (talk) 11:31, 7 May 2015 (UTC)
  •   Not done Nope, still not working, Berean Hunter. Qwertyxp2000 (talk) 04:14, 8 May 2015 (UTC)'
  • You could always look at Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism/Administrator instructions. Somewhere it says that you could make anonblocks. Qwertyxp2000 (talk) 04:21, 8 May 2015 (UTC) Maybe you have turned only one IP. Because you did autoblocks, what about auto-anonblocks to IPs around me? Qwertyxp2000 (talk) 04:36, 8 May 2015 (UTC)
    • Try again. I've now unblocked the only IP that I blocked relative to your case. If you are still having problems you will need to file an unblock request making sure to copy the info over so a reviewing admin can trace any other applicable blocks in which you may be caught.
       — Berean Hunter (talk) 12:25, 8 May 2015 (UTC)
      • Berean Hunter, the thing is, you did an autoblock as well as a single block to my single IP. Strangely enough, it is now 122.62.47.209 that relates to my computer at present. I don't know but there are countless number of IPs near my area. Qwertyxp2000 (talk) 00:06, 9 May 2015 (UTC)
        • Ah, that was no autoblock...that was a discrete hardblock after I saw you evading and it was after your case was archived. I had not noted the IP in the case so I didn't see it when I reviewed before. It should work now for your account but IP editing is still restricted.

LTA

I'm not sure why you thought it was a good idea to create that page, but I strongly suggest that you let it stay deleted. ​—DoRD (talk)​ 04:19, 9 May 2015 (UTC)

Essay

At about 1 disruptive edit a week, all reverted within an hour, I don't think the level of vandalism is high enough to be appropriate for protection. The current scheme of reversion works fine. Deryck C. 23:53, 7 May 2015 (UTC)

@Deryck Chan: What about Pending Changes? Both semi-protection and pending changes are used to prevent vandalism but pending changes is used for articles with a low edit rate. Qwertyxp2000 (talk) 23:57, 7 May 2015 (UTC)
The vandalism was all reverted really quickly so I think even PC isn't necessary. Besides PC doesn't reduce anybody's workload. Deryck C. 14:58, 9 May 2015 (UTC)

Help!

Do you know any Wikimedia videos about how to count prose of Wikipedia articles? Qwertyxp2000 (talk) 06:22, 25 May 2015 (UTC)

I don't think there's a video on that topic, but according to Wikipedia:Article size, this script will add a tool to the toolbox in the left sidebar that will give an article's prose size. Huon (talk) 12:18, 25 May 2015 (UTC)

Protection

Hi there, Qwertyxp2000. I notice you have made a few protection requests recently at WP:RPP with rationales that certain pages are likely to attract vandals, or move protection requests for pages which "should not move". I appreciate your eagerness to help Wikipedia; however, please remember that we do not pre-emptively protect pages and only do so when there is evidence of persistent disruption. If you wish to request protection of a page, it should be for pages which are currently being disrupted (by vandalism, edit warring, etc); it can help if you provide evidence of such disruption. Wikipedia is intended to be an encylopedia that anyone can edit and, although we sometimes have to restrict this to prevent disruption, it is best to keep this protection to a minimum. It might be worth looking over WP:PROT to refresh your understanding of our protection policy. Please let me know if you have any questions. ItsZippy (talkcontributions) 13:32, 30 May 2015 (UTC)

Sorry, I was just too excited. Qwertyxp2000 (talk) 21:57, 30 May 2015 (UTC)
