Thanks for the message, and I apologize for the delay responding to your request for assistance and protection here. Life has kept me busy, and I'm just now getting caught up on all of the Wikipedia messages, emails, requests, and backlogs that have piled up while I was away. ;-) According to the [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&page=Template%3A2019%E2%80%9320_coronavirus_pandemic_data page logs] for this template, this particular template was only ''[[WP:SEMI|semi-protected]]'' one time, and done so for an indefinite duration. It has never had [[WP:30/500|extended confirmed protection]] applied to it before. Are you sure that you're referring to the correct page? Yes, there have been ''numerous'' edits made to this template... just looking at the edit history over the last ''two days'' will clearly show that... And, yes, edits continue to be made to it at a ''very high'' rate - much higher than the average number of edits made to similar template pages that cover ''other subjects''. However, we must take a step back, and we must realize and understand that an alarmingly high number of edits and an alarmingly high rate of edits by multiple people to a single page is not, in itself, [[WP:VAND|vandalism]] or [[WP:DE|disruptive or abusive behavior]]. :Sure, seeing a page (especially a page about something as big as COVID-19) being ''hammered'' with a ''very high rate'' of edits is a reasonable set of events that would give the typical experienced editor or [[WP:RCP|recent changes patroller]] pause, and have red flags and potential alarm bells ringing in their head. This behavior is something that, had I spotted it while patrolling, would make me stop and take a deeper look. However, I don't see many reverts, edit warring behavior, or anything that would indicate that this page is actively being hit with vandalism or abuse. If I'm wrong, ''please'' let me know and please point me to the diffs, users, and other information that I need to see so that I can take a look. However, given what I've seen so far, I believe that the protection level currently set is doing its job fine, and I can't consider increasing the protection level unless I see clear evidence showing otherwise. :Please let me know if you have any questions or additional concerns, or if you'd like to discuss this further. I'll be more than happy to help. :-) Cheers - [[User:Oshwah|<b><span style="color:#C00000">~Oshwah~</span></b>]]<sup><small><b>[[User_talk:Oshwah|<span style="color:blue">(talk)</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Oshwah|<span style="color:green">(contribs)</span>]]</b></small></sup> 06:02, 14 April 2020 (UTC) ::{{u|Oshwah}} Thank you for the reply.

It will lead you on the best path to success here, and it will keep you away from common pitfalls, unnecessary frustration, and feelings of discouragement - which is somewhere I believe that you're headed for right now... :-/ :Looking at your account and your contributions, I can safely tell you that ''no administrator'' is going to approve of your request for [[WP:RBK|rollback rights]] - not right now, and not with the level of experience you have. Your account is less than one week old, and you've made only 35 edits. If you look at the documented per-se requirements on the rollback guideline page, applicants who request rollback are expected to have ''at least'' 200 edits to the article space (mainspace). Not only do I require candidates I judge to have many more edits than that, I also require candidates to be able to show that they have demonstrable experience, well-established knowledge, and a consistent history of properly reverting edits that are [[WP:VAND|vandalism]] and disruption, [[WP:WARN|warning users]] appropriately, and reporting repeat offenders to the right noticeboard and when it's acceptable and appropriate to do so. I ''highly recommend'' that you review Wikipedia's guideline page on the [[WP:RBK|rollback user right]] first, and that you review Wikipedia's information page on [[WP:UAL|user rights and how it all works]] before you review ''that''. :And... to step you back a bit further... before you even go ''this far'' and before you even ''look into'' user rights ''in general'' and what they're about, I urge you to go through and complete Wikipedia's [[WP:TWA|new user tutorial]], get to a level where you understand it completely, and get into the routine of making regular edits and contributions for some time. Going even further regarding those requirements: You also need to show that you know your way around the project, and can edit, navigate, communicate, and review documentation on your own and stand on your own two feet. After all, how could anyone expect that you'll correctly identify edits as bad faith if you don't know how to cite a reference, or what a template is, or what an infobox is? ... :I highly recommend that you go through that [[WP:TWA|tutorial]] I linked you to, and that you revisit requesting user rights at a later time.

The user has also been warned previously of herassment [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Mr.User200#Stalking], and has a generally confrontational tone [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Mr.User200#Remark], telling a user commenting on similar activties to what I am reporting that he (Mr.User200) is going to monitor him and that he (HarimauFury) is the "last person" who "should" be commenting on the behavior, he also has a very strong anti-American and anti-Israeli point of view, which pretty clearly stated on his user page. In his last [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:MobileDiff/950435061| edit] he removed a reliable source and changed the wording from destroyed targeted, which ignores the factually recorded event of the equipment being destroyed, as was reported by numerous news outlets with the only explanation in his edit summery being "better". While he has accused me of violating [[WP:3RR]], he is also guilty of it by reverting my edits multiple times until I advised him to take it to the talk page of the article and to stop edit warring, and vandalising the page by removing sourced information. Please review this user and his activites, thanks. [[User:Takinginterest01|Takinginterest01]] ([[User talk:Takinginterest01|talk]]) 18:09, 12 April 2020 (UTC) :Hi [[User:Takinginterest01|Takinginterest01]], and thanks for leaving me a message here regarding your concerns with [[User:Mr.User200|Mr.User200]]. Looking through the diffs and links you provided, I understand how his remarks, edit summaries, and comments are causing frustration and disrepute upon you. To add some information, context, and comments to some of the links you provided: The user who started the "stalking" discussion on his user talk page [[Special:Permalink/948972369#Stalking|here]] was subsequently placed on an [[WP:ARBCOM|Arbitration Committee]] block (or "arbcom block") due to evidence and behavior that warranted such actions - see the user's [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&page=Here%20come%20the%20Suns&type=block block log]. On top of this, the user who started the "remark" discussion [[Special:Permalink/948972369#Remark|here]] was subsequently blocked for being a [[WP:BADSOCK|sock puppet account]] - see ''that'' user's logs block log [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log/block&page=User:HarimauFury here]. What I believe is going on is that this user has a history and experience with identifying and reporting sock puppet accounts and users who [[WP:EVADE|evade their blocks]] in order to continue their [[WP:DE|disruptive behavior]]. For someone in his position, it's understandably easy for someone to make assumptions about another user and act snippy or even [[WP:CIV|uncivil]] toward them with the belief that they're "just another sock". However, that doesn't make the behavior okay. In fact, I tell other users to refrain from snark, uncivil, non-productive, and negative comments and tone - ''especially'' if the user they're aiming these comments toward are abusive sock puppet users. If anything, the users are trolls, and behaving this way only wastes your time and gives the trolls exactly what they want - your attention, and the belief that what you're doing is working. [[WP:DENY|Don't feed trolls]]. :Have you tried approaching [[User:Mr.User200|Mr.User200]] directly and talking to him kindly about his behavior and asking him to stop? Have you tried discussing the matter civilly with him and making a concerted effort to work things out, shake hands, and work things out as a team? This is the direction that I need to send you first before we consider anything else. It's always best to resolve issues directly related to other people by going directly to them and talking to them first. If you make a sincere, kind, and genuine gesture on his user talk page, and if attempting to talk things out with him peacefully doesn't work, let me know and we'll take things from there. Do know that I am not excusing his behavior by making those kinds of comments toward you; I am only saying that I would understand if he believed you to be a sock puppet, and that he threw comments and edit summaries at you with that belief. Let me know how things go, and please let me know if you need my help with anything else. :-) Cheers - [[User:Oshwah|<b><span style="color:#C00000">~Oshwah~</span></b>]]<sup><small><b>[[User_talk:Oshwah|<span style="color:blue">(talk)</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Oshwah|<span style="color:green">(contribs)</span>]]</b></small></sup> 08:10, 14 April 2020 (UTC) == Pomoc == Zdravo, dobio sam tvoju poruku da mozes da pomognes u veyi uredjivanje stranice vikipedia, pa me interesuje nacin na koji to moyes da uradis, imao bih dosta korisnih pitanja da ti postavim ali ne snalazim se dovoljno dobro sa engleskim pa ne znam da li ce goole translate biti od neke pomoci pri pisanju i odgovaranju na pitanja koja bi imao da ti postavim.Od toga kako i zato mi se prise licni profil koji bi trebao da ima za cilj validnost izvora clanaka, do toga kada neki clanak sa proverenim izvorima predstavim opet ne dobija podrsku iz ne znam kojih razloga.Najvaznije bi bilo oko toga sta drzati na stranici i kako do toga doci na koji nacin je uredjivati i pomoc oko toga.Hvala [[User:Dragan988|Dragan988]] ([[User talk:Dragan988|talk]]) 19:43, 12 April 2020 (UTC) :Hi [[User:Dragan988|Dragan988]], and thanks for the message.

The changes that I made were actually quite minor and very reasonable. For example, instead of calling at the potential reunification, I called a theoretical reunification. This is because potential implies that there is some sort of possibility or plan that this may occur. However, this is not a plan that is seriously discussed by either side, and therefore it is better terms a theoretical proposal. Furthermore, the article is indeed written like an essay with several paragraphs discussing which writer said what, and so I appropriately tagged it as such (which is pretty benign tag - it’s not like put a “neutrality disputed” tag) This page is not really part of the India Pakistan conflict as something like Kashmir. This is just a theoretical concepts, and shouldn’t fall under the rubric of indo-pak conflict. Bc again, it’s a theory and not a conflict. I had discussed this on the talk page, but a user Aman.kumar.goel framed my comments as edit war/vandalism, and I think you took that complain at face value.

I'm not sure what was going on there as I looked down the difference between revisions where I made the later edit and there was nothing about adding a source to the page. It's not very often that I trigger edit filters but apparently I've triggered filter 869 twice. I must have done something to trigger this filter. [[User:Iggy the Swan|Iggy]] ([[User talk:Iggy the Swan#top|Swan]]) ([[Special:Contribs/Iggy the Swan|Contribs]]) 21:55, 18 April 2020 (UTC) :Hi [[User:Iggy the Swan|Iggy the Swan]]! It looks like your changes were just enough to make the filter believe that your edit generated a match for one of its conditions. This typically happens because of the wide amount of text that is included with the change in content and what exactly was "modified" with your edit. For example, take a look at the details for your edit in this log [[Special:AbuseLog/26514114|here]]. If you scroll down to the bottom of the log page and locate the text captured for the "edit_diff", "new_wikitext", "old_wikitext", "added_lines", and "removed_lines", you'll see that a lot of content is included in this data, even though you only replaced a few dashes with the longer ones. This can sometimes cause content that you otherwise didn't really touch to be included in "what was changed", and will sometimes trigger an abuse filter hit. There have been times where I've gone and fixed a ref template and URL, and due to the changes I made that now made it formatted correctly, it registered the change as if I added it to the article - hence, an edit filter hit is logged. I wouldn't worry about it too much; if you're making good changes and in good faith, people are going to see that when they review the filter logs, and nobody is going to go after you for it... ;-) Please let me know if you have any more questions, and I'll be happy to answer them. :-) Cheers - [[User:Oshwah|<b><span style="color:#C00000">~Oshwah~</span></b>]]<sup><small><b>[[User_talk:Oshwah|<span style="color:blue">(talk)</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Oshwah|<span style="color:green">(contribs)</span>]]</b></small></sup> 01:20, 19 April 2020 (UTC) ::It must have been this random Daily Mail text that caused the edit filter to trigger per edit filter details.

While what you're proposing doesn't make 100% sense to me (I only glanced though it without looking into your proposal in-depth), the reason that the participants in this discussion are expressing frustration and annoyance toward you is because of the fact that you've re-proposed the same idea and opened the same discussion more than ''two times'' over the last ''two weeks'' (making a total of ''three times'' over the last ''three weeks'') and when things have not changed since the previous discussion before it (according to some of the participants). This can, understandably, cause some frustration with those who frequently participate in discussions like this. If you want my recommendation as to how to make this right, I would apologize to everyone in the discussion and state that you understand that your repeated re-creation of these discussions is causing frustration, I would withdraw your proposal so that the discussion can be immediately closed, and I would seek individual input and wait until quite some time has passed and significant changes made before proposing the idea again. :-) Just apologize, commit to doing the right thing, and follow through with it...

Just don't repeat the same behavior. ;-) [[User:Oshwah|<b><span style="color:#C00000">~Oshwah~</span></b>]]<sup><small><b>[[User_talk:Oshwah|<span style="color:blue">(talk)</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Oshwah|<span style="color:green">(contribs)</span>]]</b></small></sup> 22:14, 22 April 2020 (UTC) :{{tpw}} Hi {{u|Interstellarity}}, I've been in a similar situation at [[WT:OS]] before, [[Special:PermanentLink/896892472#Request_for_creation|proposing to rename the members of the "oversight" group to "oversighters"]].

Thank you [[User:Tran Life|Tran Life]] ([[User talk:Tran Life|talk]]) 10:27, 24 April 2020 (UTC) :Hi [[User:Tran Life|Tran Life]], and welcome to Wikipedia! I don't believe that I've sent you any messages before, but I'll be happy to answer your questions here and help you. :-) It appears that you have a [[WP:COI|conflict of interest]] with the subject that you're trying to create an article for. This conflict of interest is problematic, as your possible relationship with this subject makes it nearly impossible to create an article and write content about them while remaining completely within compliance of Wikipedia's [[WP:NPOV|neutral point of view policy]]. It's for these reasons that we ''heavily and highly discourage'' the act of creating an article about a subject that you have any kind of conflict of interest with. Also, if you're being ''paid'' or ''compensated'' in any way to edit Wikipedia, you must disclose this information by following [[WP:PAID|these directions]]. The best way to have an article written about this subject is to [[WP:RA|request one]]. If the article subject is [[WP:N|notable]] enough to have its own article, editors who ''don't'' have a conflict of interest with this subject will, without a doubt, be able and willing to write one. Since you're brand new to Wikipedia, I ''highly recommend'' that you go through and complete Wikipedia's [[WP:TWA|new user tutorial]] before you make any edits or take on any major tasks around here. It will provide you with many helpful walkthroughs, guides, interactive lessons, and other information that will be very helpful to you. Most users who take this advice and complete the tutorial tell me later that it was significantly helpful to them and saved them ''hours'' of time and frustration they would've experienced otherwise. Please let me know if you have any more questions, and I'll be happy to answer them. :-) Cheers - [[User:Oshwah|<b><span style="color:#C00000">~Oshwah~</span></b>]]<sup><small><b>[[User_talk:Oshwah|<span style="color:blue">(talk)</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Oshwah|<span style="color:green">(contribs)</span>]]</b></small></sup> 02:35, 13 May 2020 (UTC) == ACC User == Hey Oshwah, we chatted a while ago about my joining the ACC team (I can't apply through ACI due to an initial error); however I never got an outcome from that, and got busy enough off wiki that I stopped annoying you about it :P.

I'll put your request on my to-do list for sometime today or tomorrow, and I'll take a look at your ACC account status, any admin discussions that may have occurred, and nudge the admin team if the process is at a standstill somewhere. What error did you get exactly when you tried to apply? If you've applied before by creating an ACC account and going through the process, we'll have that account still - the system ''will'' spit back at you if you try to create the same account again. I'll just need to message the ACC admin team that you're re-applying so that they know, and I'll get back to you with any information, instructions, or updates. I apologize again for letting your request sit in limbo like this; I strongly dislike taking someone's request for my input, help, or actions and letting them fall through the cracks and without following completely through on them.

The edit that you provided is not eligible for [[WP:REVDEL|revision deletion]] because does not meet the required criteria. :For a revision or diff to be "grossly insulting, degrading, or offensive material" ([[WP:RD2|RD2]]), it has to be maliciously-added content that's intended to be abusive, and to the level that it would reasonably cause either ''most readers who are directly targeted by the abusive content'' (such as a certain race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, etc), or ''most general readers'' (regardless of their association), to feel offended or disgusted by it. For content to be a "serious [[WP:BLP|BLP]] violation", it has to be unreferenced or poorly referenced content regarding a [[WP:BLP|living or recently-deceased person]] that's highly contentious in nature that, if it were to hypothetically be true for any similar person with the same notability and publicity, would directly impact their social standing with society or a typical general audience. For example, if someone adds "[this person] was caught cheating on their spouse on five different occasions" to a BLP article and without a reference, this would be something that violates Wikipedia's BLP policy, and would be considered something serious enough that, if it were to be true for someone similar, cause them to be thought of more negatively by society or by a significant percentage of typical people. That would be eligible for revision deletion under [[WP:RD2|RD2]]. :For a revision to be "purely disruptive", it has to be maliciously disruptive and to the level that it causes significant impact upon readers, is a blatant policy violation, or detracts readers greatly from the project and its core values. Examples of content that would be "purely disruptive material" include threats of harm made toward Wikipedia readers or editors, allegations or harassment made toward editors and readers, links to websites that attempt to phish, offend, scam, or cause extreme hardship onto the victim and/or the security of their device or their browser (links to sites that contain or distribute viruses, malicious HTML or code, browser-crashing exploits, shock pages with grossly offensive content, content that's intended to disparage its intended subject or call upon their readers to harass them, or content that is illegal or violates US Federal and/or international laws), and other content that is to this level. Spam links are not considered "purely disruptive" simply because they're spam - it must fall under the examples above in order to be eligible for [[WP:RD3|RD3]]. :I hope this response helps to clear things up and explain the common criteria that eligible content will fall under.

After a quick search of my archives, [[User:Oshwah/TalkPageArchives/2016-08#Monday_wasn't_a_good_day|yes I indeed do]]! The SSD had issues that were caused either by a design flaw or a problem in the manufacturing process. It was caused by the manufacturer and I'm pretty sure that the issue impacted the entire production of that particular model (It was a Neutron XT model from [[Corsair Components|Corsair]]), or at least a significant number of them. I had my Neutron XT SDD replaced ''three different times'' under warranty within the span of only a few months apart, and because each one ended up going through the exact same issue - it would suddenly "break" in a way where I could read from it just fine and use it without hurting any of the data, but I couldn't write or save any data to it - it either wouldn't write at all, or it would disappear when the drive was shut off or lost power. After they replaced my SSD a ''third time'' and when ''that one'' broke, they replaced it with a Neutron XTi model of the same capacity and specs (which I assume was made to rebrand and replace the Neutron XT because of their issues). I've had that Neutron XTi SSD ever since and I haven't had a problem with it... So they indeed found and fixed the problem! ;-) I might be removing that drive soon and putting it into another workstation that I own. I've since bought an M.2 SSD that's much faster, and I have an instance of Windows 10 on each one. I've slowly migrated to the new drive and made sure that the new copy of Windows 10 works and has all the settings and data I want and need, and I'm to the point where I can probably just retire that old copy.
