Hi, I was just researching some of our early admins, of which, obviously, you are one, since February 2003 as it says on your userpage. I haven't been able to find a record of your requesting adminship and I thought maybe it was the result of Jimbo's promise in February 2003 to grant the privilege "willy-nilly" to "people who have been around for awhile" in his "no big deal" statement? ☆ Bri (talk) 18:10, 11 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20230111181000","author":"Bri","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Bri-20230111181000-History_of_adminship","replies":["c-Infrogmation-20230111220100-Bri-20230111181000"]}}-->
Hi. Sorry I don't recall the details. I can tell you that I was very active here on en:Wikipedia in that era. I think it might have been some page with a call for admins, who would have listed responsibilities and tools. I volunteered, and some time later (I don't remember if it was hours or days) was granted adminship. However I may be conflating this with my getting adminship on Wikimedia Commons the following year. Sorry I'm not of more help.

Hi...you used my photo of Art Neville on his wikipedia page credited to "robbiesaurus." If it's easy enough to do, could that be changed to my real name, Robbie Mendelson? I'm also pretty sure there are other photos of mine similarly credited. Could those be changed, too? I'm not exactly sure how many there are but if there's an easy way for you to find mine, it'd be appreciated. If the easiest way is for me to let you know which, let me know and I'll get in touch when I come across them. I know my photos of John Boutte are on his page, one credited by name, one by nickname.
Thank you and I appreciate you using my photos.

Hi. Thanks for sharing so many great photos on Flickr under free licenses. Since I see you've already changed your Flickr account name to real name, doing so on Wikimedia Commons is not a problem. I've found what I think are the photos you are referring to, and edited the credit accordingly. The credit on photos copied from Flickr to Commons generally reflects how the photo was credited on Flickr at time it was copied, usually using a semi-automated transfer tool.
From a quick search, looks like there are over 800 photos by you on Commons! (Copied by various different users - I was mostly interested in New Orleans subjects, but see other users found your tennis photos of value, etc.) So it will take a while to get all of them. I'll add it to my list of things to get done by pecking away at bit by bit. You are welcome to set up an account on Commons yourself if you wish. Otherwise, if you see photos you want to prioritize updating credit on, feel free to contact me again - my talk page on Commons is a better place for that. Thanks again for the photos!

I'm going to delete the following paragraph from Izamal:
In 1975 the official in charge of land redistribution was repeatedly accused of political corruption; letters of complaint were sent from citizens of Izamal to Mérida and Mexico City with no response. The official was found stoned to death under a large pile of rocks in the town's main square. A Mexican Army unit occupied the town for some days after the incident, but investigators failed to find anyone in town who knew anything about what happened. <!-- I recall this being talked about quite a lot in Yucatán, but have found no information on the web. If anyone knows the official's name, exact date, or other info please add it. -- User:Infrogmation -->
Diario de Yucatánrecently reproduced an article from 31 October 1972 ("violenta respuesta de campesinos deja dos muertos") that covers an incident similar to what you described, yet with significant differences in detail. I can't verify all the details in your story, and I'm not sure how significant this event ultimately was to Izamal's history, so I'm going to take it out; but I thought I'd let you know here in case you wanted to follow up on this.

OK.

I'm surprised that you didn't follow up more substantively after accusing Yourcousinvinny614 of "massive copyright violations with insulting false claims". I see that you've opened discussion about their image uploads but your edit also removed a lot of text.

Repeated false claims about image sources and authorship with highly dubious claims of license. User has responded - possibly well intended (?!) but absurd false claims and copyright violations are still absurd false claims and copyright violations even if done without malice, and shouldn't be in articles. Apparently the user didn't pay attention to warnings and attempts to discuss on Commons and saw no need to make any attempt to be accurate or honest with uploads. My edit to the article was made in great exasperation, the purpose to promptly remove large amounts of copyright violations. Help with remedies and improvements is always welcome.

The closer you look at this, the weirder it gets. Take a look at the YouTube account being linked by the Facebook account. The owner has 10k followers and injected this into one of 100 or so videos on the site. My guess is this started as an inside joke by friends of the astronaut and quickly grew out of control. The fact that it was posted to r/space and this guy just showed up to defend it is mind boggling.

@Viriditas My partner and I spent about 3-4 hours last night chasing all of this down too; it was just too baffling to stop looking. Kind of feel bad for the guy, because he was talking about being bullied on his KSP Wiki page, and clearly he's got some things to work through. But it's just so strange how it manifested in perpetuating misinformation about NASA-MAF specifically - down to the PSAs/promotional videos with the spoofed name added to the information splash screen and with the doctored images interspersed throughout on his YouTube, and ripping the MAF Family Day poster on Facebook and slapping the "CAHRF" name on it, and then multiple accounts cross-referencing each other (which I assume are all him, based on how they talk about each other, phrases like "my good friend").
Our guess was there was allure because one of the few NASA installations that doesn't have a center open to the general public, and it's probably one of the most obscure facilities (as opposed to Kennedy or Goddard), so that hoax went under the radar for so long.

I'm new to editing Wikipedia and you were the first person to thank me. Although it was a minor edit regarding "Maya vs Mayan" I appreciate the acknowledgment. I'm really trying to learn how to get around on here and it took me a while to even notice that you had thanked me. I'm such a noob. Anyway, thank you Infrogmation!

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/West Craft Records until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article until the discussion has finished.

Hi, I can see that you were trying to expand the Presidential lecterns article a few days ago in good faith. I've actually practically reverted your edit as it was causing readability issues, but I've started a discussion on the talk page so I can get my opinions across about my opposition to an expansion, and to suggest a name change instead. I hope that's alright!

The subject of this article is neither generally notable, nor independent of the subject. Most of the sources are directly linked to the restaurants own website and cannot be exchanged for other reliable citations. A google search for the restaurant turns up little more than the restaurants website and reviews from services like Yelp, and there seem to be no notable news stories involving this restaurant. This page is little more than an tertiary advertisement written in a passive voice for a non-notable restaurant and I believe it should be deleted per WP:Notability.

Hello,
The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Wikipedia, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.
You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.
The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .
Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.

Hello,
I recently invited you to take a survey about administration on Wikipedia. If you haven’t yet had a chance, there is still time to participate– we’d truly appreciate your feedback. The survey is anonymous and should take about 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement.
