Christine Cockley

I'm not sure what happened but I accepted the draft, however, you didn't get the notification. S0091 (talk) 17:57, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I think it's a leftover technical issue from when my account was renamed. I'm trying to get it fixed. Nahida 🌷 18:01, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The submission template did have u=Nahida which looks right to me but my log has "Accepted Draft:Christine Cockley by Nahida~enwiki 17:54, 30 April 2025 (UTC)" and it did leave the message at User talk:Nahida~enwiki. Odd. You do have other messages there too from AfC. S0091 (talk) 18:11, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Primefac any clue why this is happening? It just did it again with Ty Mathews. The draft submission was by Nahida [1] (Nahida submitted, template has u=Nahida) but the AfC notices are going to User talk:Nahida~enwiki [2]. S0091 (talk) 14:21, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Not them but my only theory is an error during account renaming. It's pretty clear my account wasn't registered in 2007 so if it's not that I don't know. Nahida 🌷 14:25, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I think so too but not sure why. For example your CSD log is correctly logging at User:Nahida/CSD log. Would you be opposed to User talk:Nahida~enwiki being redirected here? Mind you, I don't know that's the right answer but it might be. S0091 (talk) 14:35, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not opposed if it would fix the weird errors but I'm not sure if that's the best idea either? The account is registered and I made a G6 nomination but all that happened was the [previous AfC] notices being erased. Just confusing. Nahida 🌷 14:50, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, so that's not your old account? Above you state your account was renamed so I assumed you meant you renamed from Nahida~enwiki to Nahida (or that was your intent). Even so, it registered back in 2007 and has never made an edit on any wiki so it could fall under the usurpation rules. Will see. S0091 (talk) 14:59, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

No. I renamed from User:Alisosi and you can still see some artifacts from that at the top of the talk page. Nahida 🌷 15:01, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

That makes this even more strange! S0091 (talk) 15:06, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

That's... different. I know there is some code to check for users who have been redirected, but it should be forward-looking not attempting to guess at what a user's name might have been. I'll ping Novem Linguae as I can't immediately find where in the code the username checks are (and I don't have the time today to do so), but since AFCH seems to be the only tool making this error, it's likely hidden somewhere in there. Primefac (talk) 09:02, 5 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I just checked Twinkle out of curiosity by reverting an edit Nahida made and it took me here for the warning so yep, seems to be an AfC issue. Nahida, I know this is not the "right" answer but there's no need for you to submit your drafts to AfC for review. You can move them to mainspace yourself (see WP:MOVE for instructions, you will change Draft to Article is the first drop down). Of course you are welcome to continue to the submit them. S0091 (talk) 16:54, 5 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'm aware, it's just a personal preference. Almost always better to have two eyes instead of one. Nahida 🌷 23:33, 5 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Primefac. Howdy. It'd take some time to properly dig into this. As a quick workaround, I'd recommend redirecting User talk:Nahida~enwiki to User talk:Nahida. That would probably fix the problem short term. Hope this helps. –Novem Linguae (talk) 17:00, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Declined CSD

Hello, I've declined your CSD U5 on User:HISHANT AHI. The page content isn't ideal, but it's not too egregious and contains a COI declaration, so I'm not sure deleting it is a net positive. Note that only pages that have undergone a deletion discussion are eligible for G4 — CSD does not involve a discussion and therefore does not qualify pages for the criterion. Thanks, Giraffer (talk) 16:24, 5 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Makes sense. [It was previously deleted] under U5 and looked the exact same so that's why I originally nominated it, but it doesn't look the same now. Thanks for the clarification on G4 also, misunderstood what counted as G4. Nahida 🌷 16:28, 5 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Personal attacks against you

Hello, I was patrolling recent changes and saw an IP 92.40.199.154 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) insult you on their talk page. Thought you should know. I have already warned them to stop per WP:NPA but I doubt they will listen. Gommeh ➡️ Talk to me 16:54, 5 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

If you got pinged about that I was restoring the older talk page. Nothing wrong with your edit. Thank you too! Nahida 🌷 16:54, 5 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I think I'm gonna vomit

Did you see what that IP said about you? He's making extremely inappropriate unsolicited remarks based on your sexuality. Men... I swear... elm she/they ^{(ARF! | pugmarks)} 16:54, 5 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I know but it's better to be above them. Already reported. Nahida 🌷 16:55, 5 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Good, keep up the good work! Gommeh ➡️ Talk to me 16:57, 5 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Nahida: I guess you're right. Now he's attacking me... elm she/they ^{(ARF! | pugmarks)} 16:56, 5 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Annoying but it's due the course. They only want attention and they'll move on in 99% of cases if you don't give it to them. They'll be blocked anyhow. Nahida 🌷 16:57, 5 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'm surprised they haven't attacked me yet. And yeah I probably just jinxed it lol. Gommeh ➡️ Talk to me 16:58, 5 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Them? There is only one of me, and I am straight male. 92.40.199.154 (talk) 16:58, 5 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

'Them' is a way to refer to someone when you don't know what gender they are. Gommeh ➡️ Talk to me 16:59, 5 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

May a kind admin delete his attack pages? Now he's assuming I'm trans... I'm cisgender. But, I mean, hey, as Nahida said, it's best to ignore till they grow tired of it. elm she/they ^{(ARF! | pugmarks)} 17:03, 5 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Nevermind, they're gone. Good riddance! elm she/they ^{(ARF! | pugmarks)} 17:04, 5 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Cedelmwood: Are you sure about that? Because, today, someone just catfished @Nahida... maybe it's connected here? Hacked (Talk|Contribs) 01:52, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

What on earth? Surely that's unrelated. I mean, it appears to be a completely different person pulling this trick, but, still. I don't understand humanity at times. elm she/they ^{(ARF! | pugmarks)} 02:20, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe the catfish did what they did because of what happened here? Similar username.... seems like a sock, yes? Hacked (Talk|Contribs) 02:25, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

They were obviously trying to get Nahida in trouble or make them look bad, and failed so bad that I'm actually feeling a little bit sorry for them. No one who's ever interacted with Nahida on-wiki would fall for the prank they tried to pull. Block is 1000% deserved. Gommeh ➡️ Talk to me 02:25, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I did some checking and I'm convinced it's a sock, but I don't technically have proof. There was this person around 5 hours ago as well. Nahida 🌷 02:30, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe it's worth checking at WP:SPI? Gommeh ➡️ Talk to me 02:36, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah. You could smell the bullcrap from a mile away, couldn't ya? I know Nahida's speech patterns, and they sure as hell did a miserable job impersonating them. elm she/they ^{(ARF! | pugmarks)} 02:31, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Couldn't agree with you more :) Hacked (Talk|Contribs) 02:33, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I tell you about it, man. elm she/they ^{(ARF! | pugmarks)} 02:36, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the Crystal Lett article

Hi Nahida,

Serendipitously, I was planning to create Crystal Lett’s Wikipedia article on the exact same day that you submitted your initial draft, since it all felt overdue. Crystal is a friend and colleague of mine, and I also have a background in biographical writing — though I’ve only written one Wikipedia article before, connected to that larger project.

I just wanted to thank and commend you for putting in the work to make it happen. Reading your user page was also a highlight, and it’s clear you care deeply about the work you do here.

Appreciation from a lesser Wikipedian, Jordan (he/him/his) (ENTP) – User:Jordanwwei

P.S. — I’m the tall guy in this photo :) https://www.ohiohouse.gov/members/crystal-lett/news/rep-lett-of-ohio-house-district-11-sworn-into-136th-general-assembly-125971 Jordanwwei (talk) 21:01, 5 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! You don't have to feel as if you're lesser here, especially to me. Everybody is equal here on Wikipedia! Some people have edited longer or contributed more than others, but that doesn't make much of a difference except for maybe bureaucrats or admins.

That's really cool if you're in that photo as well! Funny that we were both going to create her article at the same time, lol. Nahida 🌷 21:07, 5 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Someone's catfishing you

Hello. There's a vandalist (who's gonna get blocked) who is catfishing you. I'm here to let you know about this.... strange situation. Hacked (Talk|Contribs) 01:49, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Ivebeenhacked I'm not logged in right now because I'm on mobile but thank you for letting you know. It's annoying but I've seen worse and they'll eventually stop after a while. Unfortunate though. 2603:6010:1500:8FBB:423C:584A:22CC:ACA4 (talk) 01:55, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'm genuinely sorry that this is happening to you. It must be kinda scary, isn't it? Hacked (Talk|Contribs) 01:58, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Ivebeenhacked A little for sure... They probably want me blocked but it's not going to work. I'll keep an eye on it. 2603:6010:1500:8FBB:423C:584A:22CC:ACA4 (talk) 01:59, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Wait.... am I talking to another catfish...? I don't know what's what anymore... Hacked (Talk|Contribs) 02:03, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It's actually me, don't worry. Good eye though. Nahida 🌷 02:06, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, that's good. Or it woulda been embarrasing... Hacked (Talk|Contribs) 02:07, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! Nahida 🌷 16:49, 12 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You're welcome you earned it. If I may I want some advice. I think this is the 4th time this month someone had vandalized this page. Do you think we should escalate it and request semi-protection status? Thanks. Historyguy1138 (talk) 16:50, 12 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It's up to you if you want to make a request at WP:RPP but it's a bit murky. There's been two IPs in the past two weeks that caused problems when I checked page history. If it happens again by a different IP or user, I would, but just two IPs are usually easier to just warn and block. Check WP:SEMI for more of the specifics. Nahida 🌷 16:56, 12 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Gotcha gotcha. I will refrain for now, but thank you for what you do. I think one think every Wikipedia editor can agree on is that we all hate vandalism.

Are you apart of the Wikipedia:Counter-Vandalism Unit? (: Historyguy1138 (talk) 16:58, 12 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Not officially I don't think? I never did the program or did that much research into it. I patrol recent changes a lot though so I do essentially the same work. Nahida 🌷 17:01, 12 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hmmmm interesting. Well thanks in any case. (: Historyguy1138 (talk) 17:02, 12 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

+1 I was reviewing your rollback application and was impressed by how well you took on the advice from last time. Thanks for your work, and I hope the new tools are helpful! — Wug·a·po·des 05:55, 13 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Rollback granted

Hi Nahida. After reviewing your request, I have enabled rollback on your account. Please keep the following things in mind while using rollback:

• Being granted rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle or Ultraviolet. It just adds a [rollback] button next to a page's latest live revision. It does not grant you any additional "status" on Wikipedia, nor does it change how Wikipedia policies apply to you.
• Rollback should be used to revert clear and unambiguous cases of vandalism only. Never use rollback to revert good faith edits. For more information about when rollback is appropriate, see Wikipedia:Rollback § When to use rollback.
• Rollback should never be used to edit war, and it should never be used in a content-related dispute to restore the page to your preferred revision. If rollback is abused or used for this purpose or any other inappropriate purpose, the rights will be revoked.
• Use common sense. If you're not sure about something, ask!

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into trouble or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! — Wug·a·po·des 05:53, 13 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Congrats @Nahida! Gommeh ➡️ Talk to me 16:52, 13 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! Nahida 🌷 16:54, 13 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Something I think you'd be interested in

Hi, I noticed you have a particular interest in Genshin Impact based on your Wikipedia username and Discord. I've started working on Draft:Nahida (Genshin Impact character) and think you may be interested in working on it with me. Please feel free to take a look at it. Gommeh ➡️ Talk to me 16:54, 13 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Of course I'm interested! I'll lean more towards minor edits and giving suggestions though just to be safe with COIs. Nahida 🌷 16:55, 13 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

How would this be a COI? It's not like you're employed by Hoyo or anything, right? Gommeh ➡️ Talk to me 17:00, 13 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

No, I just try to be careful because it's a bit nuanced (even though it's probably completely fine). COIs aren't always just employment. I marked it on my user page a while ago. Nahida 🌷 17:03, 13 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

That's understandable. But I wanted to know more about the specifics of this as I've been curious about the COI policy in general for a while now, so I decided to bring it up in the Teahouse. Gommeh ➡️ Talk to me 17:21, 13 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
