Talk:Communist state move discussion

Hi

Would you please participate in the move discussion at Talk:Communist state. I already do know that you don't approve of the current name title. I don't really have anything against it, but people refuse to link to the proper page, which means that this title doesn't work at all. TheUzbek (talk) 13:20, 19 January 2024 (UTC)

Hi, sorry, I had been looking at the discussion but I’d found it quite difficult so far to solidify a formal opinion on it. Personally, I think the title “Marxist-Leninist state” would be satisfactory,( I mainly opposed the existing title for the oxymoron,) though I can understand where you are coming from with your proposal. I can probably participate soon, once I’ve come to an opinion on the matter. Thanks! –Gluonz ^{talk contribs} 15:04, 19 January 2024 (UTC)

Requested move for Twitter article

Your opinion on this issue is requested

You have been tagged to this conversation because you may have previously participated in similar discussions and there has been a notable development. Please consider sharing your views. 𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓔𝓭𝓾𝓬𝓪𝓽𝓲𝓸𝓷 𝓐𝓾𝓭𝓲𝓽𝓸𝓻 23:14, 23 May 2024 (UTC)

@The Education Auditor: What is the notable development? The domain name change? –Gluonz ^{talk contribs} 23:22, 23 May 2024 (UTC)

I would prefer not to answer that as it may influence your opinion, which is more valuable from a neutral perspective. The user submitting the move request has shared a detailed rationale in favour for the move. Additionally, Masem also has submitted a counterproposal that is regularly mentioned. This may be the final move request and it appears that there might be a rough consensus for an article called X (social network) so I thought it appropriate to notify everyone.

Soviet space program

Hi Gluonz, have no problems with your changes to the Lead of Soviet space program however you have broken multiple existing links in the references with your changes, hence I reverted your change. Unfortunately I do not have time to fix the links, if you can fix the broken links then would have no problem with you changes. Ilenart626 (talk) 02:40, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for noticing. I think that I have fixed that issue. –Gluonz ^{talk contribs} 17:48, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

CrowdStruck

Hello, fellow BSOD enthusiast! I saw you express a preference against using the term "IT" in the title, and I'm curious about your reasoning and thoughts on each alternative. If you don't mind, please weigh in by replying to this comment. Jruderman (talk) 20:04, 24 July 2024 (UTC)

Never mind, you've already done so. I really should have reloaded the discussion to before submitting my comment here. Jruderman (talk) 20:07, 24 July 2024 (UTC)

You can keep or delete this now-pointless section, up to you. Jruderman (talk) 20:07, 24 July 2024 (UTC)

No worries! –Gluonz ^{talk contribs} 20:26, 24 July 2024 (UTC)

An information technology blessing for you!

May your "downtime" always be the relaxing kind.

Thank you for ensuring that we discussed IT vs information technology vs technology vs tech early enough that it did not cause a last-minute delay.

Administrator Elections: Call for Candidates

Administrator Elections | Call for Candidates

The administrator elections process has officially started! Interested editors are encouraged to self-nominate or arrange to be nominated by reviewing the instructions at Wikipedia:Administrator elections/October 2024/Call for candidates.

Here is the schedule:

• October 8–14 - Candidate sign-up (we are here)
• October 22–24 - Discussion phase
• October 25–31 - SecurePoll voting phase

Please note the following:

• The requirements to run are identical to RFA—a prospective candidate must be extended confirmed.
• Prospective candidates are advised to become familar with the community's expectations of adminstrators, which are much higher than the minimum requirement of having extended confirmed status. This includes reviewing successful and unsuccessful RFAs, reading the essay Wikipedia:Advice for RfA candidates, and possibly requesting an optional poll on their chances of passing.
• The process will have a one week call for candidates phase, a one week pause to set up SecurePoll, a three-day period of public discussion, followed by 7 days of no public discussion and a private vote using SecurePoll.
• The outcomes of this process are identical to making requests for adminship. There is no official difference between an administrator appointed through RFA or administrator elections.
• Administrator elections are also a valid means of regaining adminship for de-sysopped editors.

Ask any questions about the process at the talk page. A separate user talk message will be sent to official candidates with additional information about the process.

To avoid sending too many messages, this will be the last mass message sent about administrator elections. If you are interested in the process, please make sure to watchlist the appropriate pages. A watchlist notice will be added when the discussion phase opens, and again when the voting phase opens.

Administrator Elections: Discussion phase

Administrator Elections | Discussion phase

The discussion phase of the October 2024 administrator elections is officially open. As a reminder, the schedule of the election is:

• October 22–24 - Discussion phase
• October 25–31 - SecurePoll voting phase
• November 1–? - Scrutineering phase

During October 22–24, we will be in the discussion phase. The candidate subpages will open to questions and comments from everyone, in the same style as a request for adminship. You may discuss the candidates at Wikipedia:Administrator elections/October 2024/Discussion phase.

On October 25, we will start the voting phase. The candidate subpages will close again to public questions and discussion, and everyone will have a week to use the SecurePoll software to vote, which uses a secret ballot. You can see who voted, but not who they voted for. Please note that the vote tallies cannot be made public until after voting has ended and as such, it will not be possible for you to see an individual candidate's tally during the election. The suffrage requirements are different from those at RFA.

Once voting concludes, we will begin the scrutineering phase, which will last for an indeterminate amount of time, perhaps a week or two. Once everything is certified, the results will be posted on the main election page. In order to be granted adminship, a candidate must have received at least 70.0% support, calculated as Support / (Support + Oppose). As this is a vote and not a consensus, there are no bureaucrat discussions ("crat chats").

Any questions or issues can be asked on the election talk page. Thank you for your participation. Happy electing.
