Sockpuppetry?

How do I create a second account? Regards,Ved Sharma (talk) (contribs) 15:36, 1 February 2025 (UTC)

@Kharavela Deva well, the how is Special:CreateAccount, but more importantly, why do you want to create a new account? '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk • contribs) 01:47, 6 February 2025 (UTC)

A alt account like yours User:CanonNiAWB Regards,Ved Sharma (talk) (contribs) 08:44, 6 February 2025 (UTC)

The reason I have that account is to make automated edits, so it's not really an alt, per se. WP:LEGITSOCK lists some valid reasons for creating alternate accounts. Feel free to do so if you need one. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk • contribs) 12:20, 6 February 2025 (UTC)

Question from Dylaniswondering on Talk:Richardson Gang (08:40, 4 February 2025)

Does anyone know anything about Mickey Duff or “Mickey Blue Eyes”? He was my grandfather and I can’t seem to find any information about him online, would love to find out more about him --Dylaniswondering (talk) 08:40, 4 February 2025 (UTC)

@Dylaniswondering is Mickey Duff what you're looking for? If not, there is unfortunately not yet an article about him, but you can help by searching for sources online and creating one yourself. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk • contribs) 01:49, 6 February 2025 (UTC)

Unfortunately not, that’s the only thing I’ve noticed that comes up about a mickey duff. I’ve searched almost everywhere on google but I can only go off of stories that my mum has told me, will update 2A00:23C8:E911:8F01:85E9:8BD:86C2:394B (talk) 17:04, 11 February 2025 (UTC)

AlertAssistant loading

Hey, could you make it so AlertAssistant only initializes if in the user talk namespace? Otherwise, I get an error about inheritance ("Super expression must either be null or a function") outside of the User talk namespace. Thanks! Aaron Liu (talk) 12:32, 7 February 2025 (UTC)

@CanonNi is not-inactive, I would defer to them before calling on int-admins. Sohom (talk) 20:15, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

He's been inactive for 2 weeks now. Aaron Liu (talk) 23:05, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

 Not done (as to the immediate edit request). It doesn't appear anyone has written, and well tested, code that is wanting to be inserted here. It seems like only ~8 people share this, so the impact is extremely low as well. Suggest you just wait for this user to come back. — xaosflux ^Talk 01:54, 21 February 2025 (UTC)

Reopening request: Please replace the target page with the code at User:Aaron Liu/sandbox.js, which fixes the error disabled Special:Diff/1283448144. (And while we're at it, could someone make CanonNi on pause at Special:ManageMentors? Aaron Liu (talk) 21:29, 6 April 2025 (UTC)

Mentorship updated Sohom (talk) 01:04, 7 April 2025 (UTC)

@Aaron Liu Why are we removing if (mw.config.get('wgNamespaceNumber') === 3) {? could you explain your code changes for posterity? Sohom (talk) 01:07, 7 April 2025 (UTC)

@Sohom Datta It's not removed; it's moved out and to line 22 so that the condition envelopes the entire initialization instead of after initializing the main dialog. Aaron Liu (talk) 01:51, 7 April 2025 (UTC)

@Aaron Liu and Sohom Datta: Hey all. Sorry for uh... disappearing for over three months - been unbelievably busy IRL. But now I'm back! (yay, or nay, up to you) Thanks a ton for fixing everything while I was away! '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk • contribs) 01:39, 19 May 2025 (UTC)

DYK for 7 Wonders Duel

On 15 February 2025, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article 7 Wonders Duel, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that copies of 7 Wonders Duel sold twice as fast as the board game of which it is a spinoff? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/7 Wonders Duel. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, 7 Wonders Duel), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

AlertAssistant

For some reason, it sends the alert twice at some point and at other times it doesn't? — 🌙Eclipse (she/they/it/other neos • talk • edits) 12:10, 16 February 2025 (UTC)

Northern Health

Hi! I don't know how to edit things on Wikipedia, so decided to message the last person who did an edit! The map of Northern Health on the page is currently an older one, with Daajing Giids still listed as Queen Charlotte. Would you be willing find a newer image and put it up there to show it with it's proper name?

Question from Fenriris (01:03, 26 February 2025)

How do I change an infobox from "stable release" to "final release"? The page I want to edit also is using an template to display the latest version --Fenriris 🐺 01:03, 26 February 2025 (UTC)

Set the "discontinued" parameter to a banana no anything you want. Aaron Liu (talk) 01:05, 26 February 2025 (UTC)

Request for Assistance

Hi @CanonNi,

Nice to connect with you here. I'm Yeran from Tencent's Communications team. I'm reaching out to see if you'd be interested in helping to edit the Tencent Cloud page, which you created back in 2024. As an employee of Tencent, I've declared a conflict of interest (COI) in editing the page. Instead, I've proposed a few changes on the Talk page, including a significant update to the Infobox to reposition the page as a company subsidiary rather than a product/solution. Please let us know if you'd be available and willing to review my request.

Thank you for your time and consideration! TencentCommsYeran (talk) 10:06, 27 February 2025 (UTC)
