Block

Hi. Can you please explain why you blocked an IP for two weeks with no warning? PiRSquared17 (talk) 17:52, 29 Mǣdmōnaþ 2013 (UTC)

It created "Little Einsteins" with the content "Maƿmaþisne Little Einsteins maþǣre in ma mlada maki Disney Junior nasapþisse unda masēo maþa. Manki Little Einsteins Huhnad kaþisneæna moþǣre naþȳsakita". I am not sure of the normal practice re warning on other Wikipedias; but mostly in the past when blocking makers of vandalism, I have done so without warning.   Ƿes hāl!    20:50, 29 Mǣdmōnaþ 2013 (UTC)

Yes, I saw your message. It is fine. This block was not really bad, but I did wonder why you blocked for 2 weeks. In the future, please only block IPs for durations up to 2 days if the user wasn't given a warning. If the vandal continues, you may extend the block. Of course, more disruptive vandals may get longer blocks. PiRSquared17 (talk) 22:10, 30 Mǣdmōnaþ 2013 (UTC)

P.S. Thank you very much for your work as an admin here.

Okay, thank you.   Ƿes hāl!    22:19, 30 Mǣdmōnaþ 2013 (UTC)

You in troubleeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. Wodenhelm (Ȝesprec) 03:44, 2 Wēodmōnaþ 2013 (UTC)

Not really, luckily ;) PiRSquared17 (talk) 01:24, 7 Wēodmōnaþ 2013 (UTC)

Usbecastan

I thought the "c" spelling better; I avoid "k" wherever possible as it is so rare, and in the case of Usbecastan there is no doubt that it is a hard-c, not a "ch".

For the people, who would then be Usbece, you may question it, but then "C" is not always soft before "e": Cent is hard, and the Argi (Argives) have a g as hard as nails (like the people). Hogweard (talk) 22:38, 1 Wēodmōnaþ 2013 (UTC)

Temp adminship expires

Your temporary adminship will expire next month. I'd like to nominate you for adminship in a few weeks (or you could self-nominate). Maybe, if enough people support, you could become a permanent sysop. I'm also thinking of nominating Hogweard and Wodenhelm, both of whom have previous experience with the tools, and maybe Espreon. What do you think? PiRSquared17 (talk) 18:15, 26 Hāligmōnaþ 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for reminding me. I'll re-nominate myself. I am fine with the others you mentioned also, and would back them.   Ƿes hāl!    09:41, 29 Hāligmōnaþ 2013 (UTC)

Oppose. Wodenhelm (Ȝesprec) 00:07, 30 Hāligmōnaþ 2013 (UTC)

Sahsisk

Hi Gottistgut! I don't know whether you know about this language or not, but Old Saxon was one of the closest languages to Old English that ever was spoken. But unfortunately, this language is mostly unknown and none seems to take attention to it, especially people on Icubator... For the last two years I've been struggling so that Incubator may create an Old Saxon wikipedia (https://incubator.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wp/osx/H%C5%8D%C6%80ids%C4%ABda), a wiki that will certainly never be created... and thus I wanted to know whether it was possible to make an Old Saxon portail on this Old English wikipedia, a portail that would host every article that has to do with the language and culture or language of the continental Saxons? I thought it would be wonderful if the portail could be bilingual, writen in Old English and in Old Saxon below, and maybe with a Portal article writen in Old Saxon (don't worry this won't be a real article, only a template with few Old Saxon texts that will be changed every month maybe). There will be no fear that this "Portal article" may appear among Old English articles, this will only be a template. I just wanted to submit this idea, because it is very frustrating to see that a wonderful language like Old Saxon - which by the way could have a very steady writing style - is denied the right to have its own wikipedia as Old English or Latin have. PS: Don't judge Old Saxon by what you see on Incubator, I made this page some times ago and the writing is not steady at all, compared to what it could be. I simply stopped writing on it since I know it deserves to nothing... --Stardsen (talk) 23:55, 1 Winterfylleþ 2013 (UTC)
