Category:Miracles of Jesus
[edit]Good evening @UDScott:, I would like to translate here the category q:it:Miracoli di Gesù (14 elements), if this may be useful to enWQ. Do you think that similar WQ articles risk to be deleted? ~2026-15405-7 (talk) 08:54, 8 January 2026 (UTC)
- Sorry, I am not quite sure what you are asking. Yes, it seems like a fine idea to translate the category as suggested - but I'm not sure what you mean by your last question. Can you explain more? Thanks. ~ UDScott (talk) 14:59, 8 January 2026 (UTC)
- Thanks for your reply.
- I have created Epistle to Titus, discovering that Bible/Titus had been previously created by a different user and then deleted by a WQ administrator. If this may be useful for WQ in your opinion, I would like to translate also the biblical books that are red links in the navigation box placed at the end of Epistle to Titus. Do those articles risk to be deleted? ~2026-15405-7 (talk) 15:11, 8 January 2026 (UTC)
- Ah, OK. Yes, feel free to do so - I don't see why they would be deleted, provided they are quality pages with sources for the quotes. Thanks. ~ UDScott (talk) 17:30, 8 January 2026 (UTC)
Page restoration request
[edit]Hello there, @UDScott I'm not sure why you deleted Sonic and the black knight. This wasn't a test page. It had real quotes from the game. Have you even played? Kwieditor (talk) 14:42, 29 January 2026 (UTC)
- My apologies...it didn't have an introduction identifying it as a game and had the appearance of just being a fan page. I can reinstate it - but please add an intro. Thanks. ~ UDScott (talk) 14:57, 29 January 2026 (UTC)
- Excellent! Sure, I'll do it

Resident Alien and Rosita Šorytė
[edit]Whether or not Rosita Šorytė will ever be notable enough to have a Wikiquote entry in her own right, the television show Resident Alien, based on a comic book series, has yet to have an entry. I found the awkward verbiage of the eponymous character amusing.
Cheers. -- Apisite (talk) 08:58, 20 February 2026 (UTC)
Maybe you could take a look at these?
[edit]In passing I came across a pair of pages that looks like dupes. Candidly they also look like advertising in some senses. They are this one and this. Too long since I edited on here and so sorry to trouble you. Best and thanks Herby talk thyme 08:03, 9 March 2026 (UTC)
- Ah, been dealt with so you can ignore. Thanks Herby talk thyme 10:44, 9 March 2026 (UTC)
Mass deletions by EarthDude
[edit]The user EarthDude has been doing mass deletions (vandalism or censorship or pov whitewashing) across many different articles.
Quotes should not be mass deleted just because he doesn't like the point of views allegedly expressed in them, claiming they were right-wing or islamophobic (which in most cases was a clear and deliberate misrepresentation), and I also told him :
First, if you challenge a quote it should be moved to the talkpage for discussion and not simply deleted from both the article and the talkpage (which you have also blanked).
See Template:Remove
Quotes should never be removed without a comment in the edit summary, and should almost always be moved to the Talk page with a note that they were removed from the article, giving full reasoning. If it is a misattribution, the quote should not be removed, instead being moved to a "Misattributed" section, where explanation of the misattribution can be made in a subbullet. Thanks.
But he continued doing the mass deletions. --ᘙ (talk) 16:06, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
The user EarthDude has been doing mass deletions (vandalism or censorship or pov whitewashing) across many different articles which is a form of vandalism, starting with Godhra train burning but continuing across many other articles. I already notified him on Talk:Godhra train burning and on User talk:Illegitimate Barrister also mentioning Template:Remove.
I would normally not bother you with this question. But when I react myself, i get immediately attacked with personal attacks, trying to get me banned and accusations of battleground behavior. What is the best way forward?
Thank you. --ᘙ (talk) 11:01, 17 March 2026 (UTC)
- Comment: There is an ongoing discussion regarding this at Wikiquote:Administrators' noticeboard#Conduct of user ᘙ. — EarthDude (Talk) 08:47, 26 March 2026 (UTC)
Ruining Everything
[edit]You’re always ruining all my hard work and this has gotta stop! You’re just like all the other mean spirited people, always ruining things for everybody! ~2026-14376-79 (talk) 09:37, 24 April 2026 (UTC)
- The Bugs Bunny cartoons are under 10 minutes in length - you keep adding too many quotes for a work of this length. Please stop adding them. ~ UDScott (talk) 13:27, 24 April 2026 (UTC)
- I told you! You’re just like all those mean spirited people! You’re always ruining things for me! ~2026-14376-79 (talk) 15:44, 24 April 2026 (UTC)
- Because of you, you ruined all your hard work and I am never gonna listen to whatever you say, ever! Sometimes you just gotta go your own way! ~2026-14376-79 (talk) 15:47, 24 April 2026 (UTC)
You may be an eligible candidate for the U4C election
[edit]Greetings,
The Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee (U4C) seeks candidates for the 2026 election. The U4C is the global committee responsible for overseeing enforcement of the Universal Code of Conduct. Elections are held annually, if elected a committee member serves for two years.
This year the U4C requires candidates to hold administrator rights on at least one wiki, which is why you are being contacted as you appear to hold this right. There are other requirements, such as candidates must be at least 18 years old and may not be employed by the Wikimedia Foundation or other related chapters and affiliates. You can find more information in the call for candidates on Meta-wiki. Additionally, the committee's working language is English; some ability to communicate in English is required.
The election opens on 18 May, if you are eligible and interested you have until 10 May to submit your candidacy. There will week between for candidates to answer questions from the community. Voting takes place privately in SecurePoll, successful candidates must receive at least 60% support. More information is available on the 2026 Elections page, including timelines and other candidacy information. If you read over the material and consider yourself qualified, please consider submitting your name to run for the committee. If you think someone else in your community might be interested and qualified, please encourage them to run.
In partnership with the U4C -- Keegan (WMF) (talk) 18:32, 28 April 2026 (UTC)Extended vandalism on "The Mummy Returns"
[edit]The same vandal is back on The Mummy Returns, and I have reported this to the Admin noticeboard, asking for restored protected status for the page. What's changed in 2026, however, is that this vandal appears to be coming back daily at this point, and unlike, say, 2022, when they were quite active switching between IP addresses, now this user switches between throwaway accounts, like ~2026-38335-06, the most recent one just today.
Any assistance you or other administrators can provide would be appreciated. AC9016 (talk) 16:06, 6 July 2026 (UTC)
Help
[edit]I have an important request on my talk page, please look as soon as you can. Thank you Carl Fredricksen 78 (talk) 17:24, 10 August 2026 (UTC)
- I saw this, but I would agree with what another admin already posted - I'm afraid there is nothing we can do related to actions on our sister site. Sorry, but I don't know what next steps we could have. ~ UDScott (talk) 19:11, 10 August 2026 (UTC)
- @UDScott I did trying mentioning a en Wikipedia administrator in my wikiquote talk page, but they haven’t responded yet I tried filling a appeal at Utrs, no response yet either Carl Fredricksen 78 (talk) 19:28, 10 August 2026 (UTC)

Killer Klowns from Outer Space
[edit]Can you fix the Killer Klowns from Outer Space article on English Wikipedia because it's not strictly a parody film can remove the american parody films Category from it? MoeBlusom (talk) 19:00, 28 September 2026 (UTC)
- Sorry, while I am at work (since we use a proxy server), I am unable to edit WP pages. You might try asking someone over on that site anyway (as I don't really do much editing there, other than adding WQ links to pages). ~ UDScott (talk) 19:02, 28 September 2026 (UTC)
- I tried but nobody is listening or even caring. MoeBlusom (talk) 19:12, 28 September 2026 (UTC)
- This User:Ohnoitsjamie is so arrogant and cruel kicked me off when I wanted help. MoeBlusom (talk) 19:14, 28 September 2026 (UTC)
- Hmm, not sure what to tell you - I do not have any standing over there really. For what it's worth (as a fan of KKfOS), I do agree that the film is not really a parody film. Maybe open a discussion on its talk page there? ~ UDScott (talk) 19:18, 28 September 2026 (UTC)
- I try that too but he just deleted it. MoeBlusom (talk) 19:21, 28 September 2026 (UTC)
