==Speedy deletion of [[:Paul Rapoport (music critic)]]==
[[Image:Ambox warning_pn.svg|48px|left]] A tag has been placed on [[:Paul Rapoport (music critic)]] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under [[WP:CSD#A7|section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the [[WP:CSD#Articles|criteria for speedy deletion]], such articles may be deleted at any time. Please [[Wikipedia:Notability|see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable]], as well as our subject-specific [[Wikipedia:Notability (people)|notability guideline for biographies]]. 

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding <code>{{tl|hangon}}</code> to '''the top of [[:Paul Rapoport (music critic)|the page that has been nominated for deletion]]''' (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on '''[[ Talk:Paul Rapoport (music critic)|the talk page]]''' explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for ''speedy'' deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact [[:Category:Wikipedia administrators who will provide copies of deleted articles|one of these admins]] to request that they  [[Wikipedia:Userfication#Userfication_of_deleted_content|userfy]] the article or have a copy emailed to you. <!-- Template:Db-bio-notice --> <!-- Template:Db-csd-notice-custom --> [[User:UKWikiGuy|UKWikiGuy]] ([[User talk:UKWikiGuy|talk]]) 17:54, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

== Hugo Kaun's symphonies ==

Page 371 of the Goetschius says of Hugo Kaun: "He has created three Symphonies, in D, C minor, and E minor (1915), several Symphonic-Poems, Suites, and other works, orchestral and choral." Since he repeats the word "minor" I thought he meant the one in D is in D major. But I haven't heard any of his music, and I don't know if it any of it has been played in concert or on the radio in the past 20 years. [[User:Willi Gers07|Willi Gers07]] ([[User talk:Willi Gers07|talk]]) 19:07, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for the links. It certainly sounds like it's in a minor key to me. But, as you said, it could well switch to D major at the faster tempo (like Haydn's "London"). Oh, and btw, do you know anything about the [[Garritan Personal Orchestra]]? [[User:Willi Gers07|Willi Gers07]] ([[User talk:Willi Gers07|talk]]) 22:07, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

== Dealing with bullies ==

Say, Schissel, do you know of any way to deal with bullies on Wikipedia? What about a bully who knows Wikipedia's policies backwards and forwards and uses them against those who disagree with him? And what if he does this in a much more sophisticated way than what is described at [[WP:GAME]]? A lot of people are aware of this bully but they act as if they're completely powerless to do anything to take him down.

==Proposed deletion of String Quartets (Smetana)==
[[Image:Ambox warning yellow.svg|left|48px|]]
A [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed deletion]] template has been added to the article [[String Quartets (Smetana)]], suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process&#32; because of the following concern:
:<b>all pertinent information is in main articles</b>

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's [[Wikipedia:Criteria for inclusion|criteria for inclusion]], and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "[[Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not|What Wikipedia is not]]" and [[Wikipedia:Deletion policy|Wikipedia's deletion policy]]).  You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the <code>{{tl|dated prod}}</code> notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on [[Talk:String Quartets (Smetana)|its talk page]].

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the [[WP:PROD|proposed deletion process]], the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|speedy deletion criteria]] or it can be sent to [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion|Articles for Deletion]], where it may be deleted if [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] to delete is reached.<!-- Template:PRODWarning --> [[User:Tomdobb|Tomdobb]] ([[User talk:Tomdobb|talk]]) 16:44, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

== Works By Mjaskowski ==

Hi, I just saw your message. I read your [http://kith.org./jimmosk/schissel.html article] and the information of my Symphony-Articles are mostly from there and from the book of Gulinskaja (and, of course, own ideas). As yet I liked the late Symphonies more, but with the historical background the early works are interesting, too (my favourites are the 21st and the 24th). It's difficult to filter the non-indoctrinated information from Gulinskaja's book, and one thing I didn't understand is: What relationship did Mjaskowski really have to the Sowjet regime? Do you have any other sources? I also wrote an article about the [http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klaviersonaten_(Mjaskowski) piano sonatas], if you are interested. I'm glad, that my articles will be translated soon and I hope, more people will be interested in this wonderful and exciting music. --[[User:Daniel Musiklexikon|Daniel Musiklexikon]] ([[User talk:Daniel Musiklexikon|talk]]) 19:33, 20 November 2009 (UTC) ([http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benutzer_Diskussion:Daniel_Musiklexikon Discussion on my German page])

Thank you for translating the articles. Maybe you can tell me, which articles you will translate next, so I can translate some, too. --[[User:Daniel Musiklexikon|Daniel Musiklexikon]] ([[User talk:Daniel Musiklexikon|talk]]) 15:21, 21 December 2009 (UTC)

I translated the first symphony [http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benutzer:Daniel_Musiklexikon/Entwurf3 here]. You can correct the text and use it for en.wikipedia. Thanks! --[[User:Daniel Musiklexikon|Daniel Musiklexikon]] ([[User talk:Daniel Musiklexikon|talk]]) 16:28, 22 December 2009 (UTC)

Hi, i just wrote [[:de:Liste der Werke von Nikolai Jakowlewitsch Mjaskowski|this]] and [[:de:11. Sinfonie (Mjaskowski)|this]]. I think I'm going to write about the 12th Symphony next. By the way, do you have any scores of the symphonies? I'm not sure about my examples, you can see [http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Datei:Mjaskowski5Sinfonie.jpg here], [http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Datei:AhCaIra.jpg here] and [http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Datei:DieSeeleHatSichVomK%C3%B6rperGel%C3%B6st.jpg here]. If I have enough time, I will translate [[de:6. Sinfonie (Mjaskowki)]], but that will take a few days... --[[User:Daniel Musiklexikon|Daniel Musiklexikon]] ([[User talk:Daniel Musiklexikon|talk]]) 17:09, 11 January 2010 (UTC)

Hi, I'm very busy at the moment (preparing for a music-contest), so I don't have enough time to translate more articles. By the way, on imslp.org the score of the 13th symphony is now available. --[[User:Daniel Musiklexikon|Daniel Musiklexikon]] ([[User talk:Daniel Musiklexikon|talk]]) 20:37, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

== en. now has article on Rauchenecker ==

Here at en. we now have an article about [[Georg Wilhelm Rauchenecker]]. Don't know what sources de. or es. used, but if my humble little stub doesn't get deleted and it passes muster with you, perhaps you could possibly consider linking it at the IMSLP. I'm not going to get an account at IMSLP since I don't consider myself worthy of IMSLP, people who actually know what they're talking about. Actually, come to think of it, how come IMSLP doesn't link to a more reputable website than Wikipedia, a website actually run by experts and not morons? Or have their own bios of composers? [[User:James470|James470]] ([[User talk:James470|talk]]) 06:00, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

::My favorite Catholic saint is St. Florian, if that tells you anything about the validity of your conclusion. (Look him up in a book, not here, if you care to). Lately I had been annoyed by a couple of morons who think that plagiarizing ''New Grove'' is the same as creating fine free content.
::Anyway, and much more importantly, thank you for telling me about Rauchenecker's two other symphonies. It was difficult enough finding ''any'' information on the guy. I have a subscription to Oxford Music Online, and he's mentioned in the Winterthur article. I can't find that mention in either my copy of ''New Grove'' (the older edition) and the library is still missing, well, all volumes of the 2001 edition.
::Still, I remain concerned as to what sources exactly the German Wikipedia used. Though my knowledge of German is only a tiny bit more advanced than Jimbo's. [[User:James470|James470]] ([[User talk:James470|talk]]) 06:19, 21 August 2010 (UTC)

::::Thanks for clarifying that.
::::I see Amazon has the Jecklin CD mentioned in one of the Wikipedia pages. Rauchenecker's Quartet in C minor and Goetz's Quartet in B-flat. Just $63 plus shipping and tax. [[User:James470|James470]] ([[User talk:James470|talk]]) 00:52, 22 August 2010 (UTC)

== Copyright reviewer at Wikipedia ==

Who do I talk about copyright violations in Wikipedia? Does Wikipedia even have copyright reviewers like IMSLP does?

I am concerned that the composer [[James Lentini]] is under the serious misapprehension that he is the copyright owner of images of himself (such as [[:File:JimL Guitar.jpg]]) taken by professional photographers. The particular photographer here probably would have charged him a lot more if he had known his work would wind up on Wikipedia without permission. [[User:Incarnatus|Incarnatus]] ([[User talk:Incarnatus|talk]]) 20:50, 19 September 2010 (UTC)

::The problem is I have no idea who the photographer is. All I know for sure is that he didn't take it himself. [[User:Incarnatus|Incarnatus]] ([[User talk:Incarnatus|talk]]) 18:16, 21 October 2010 (UTC)

== [[Carl Nielsen]] ==

Hello Schissel. I'm impressed with all you've been doing to improve Wikipedia's coverage of classical music. I was wondering if I could persuade you to look through the article on Carl Nielsen which I've been trying to expand.

== Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference ==

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse ([[Help_talk:Minor_edit#Should_we_remove_the_Preference_setting_to_.22Mark_all_edits_minor_by_default.22_.3F|consensus discussion]], guidelines for use at [[WP:MINOR]]). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was <code>true</code>. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to <code>false</code> in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and all users will still be able to manually mark their edits as being minor in the usual way. 

For well-established users such as yourself there is '''[[Wikipedia:Village_pump_(technical)/Archive_78#Preference_to_mark_all_edits_minor_by_default_asked_to_be_removed_in_bugzilla:24313|a workaround available]]''' involving custom JavaScript. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

==MSU Interview==

Dear Schissel,

My name is Jonathan Obar [[user:Jaobar]], I'm a professor in the College of Communication Arts and Sciences at Michigan State University and a Teaching Fellow with the Wikimedia Foundation's Education Program. This semester I've been running a little experiment at MSU, a class where we teach students about becoming Wikipedia administrators. Not a lot is known about your community,  and our students (who are fascinated by wiki-culture by the way!) want to learn how you do what you do, and why you do it. A while back I proposed this idea (the class) to the community [[Wikipedia:Village_pump_(proposals)/Archive_82#Learn_to_be_a_Wikipedia_Administrator_-_New_class_at_MSU|HERE]], where it was met mainly with positive feedback. Anyhow, I'd like my students to speak with a few administrators to get a sense of admin experiences, training, motivations, likes, dislikes, etc. We were wondering if you'd be interested in speaking with one of our students.


So a few things about the interviews:
* Interviews will last between 15 and 30 minutes.
* Interviews can be conducted over skype (preferred), IRC or email. (You choose the form of communication based upon your comfort level, time, etc.)
* All interviews will be completely anonymous, meaning that you (real name and/or pseudonym) will never be identified in any of our materials, unless you give the interviewer permission to do so.
* All interviews will be completely voluntary. You are under no obligation to say yes to an interview, and can say no and stop or leave the interview at any time.
* The entire interview process is being overseen by MSU's institutional review board (ethics review). This means that all questions have been approved by the university and all students have been trained how to conduct interviews ethically and properly.


Bottom line is that we really need your help, and would really appreciate the opportunity to speak with you. If interested, please send me an email at obar@msu.edu (to maintain anonymity) and I will add your name to my offline contact list. If you feel comfortable doing so, you can post your name [[User:Jaobar/Admins_to_Interview_List_1|HERE]] instead.

If you have questions or concerns at any time, feel free to email me at obar@msu.edu. I will be more than happy to speak with you.

Thanks in advance for your help. We have a lot to learn from you.


Sincerely,

== Desprez' Gaudeamus Mass attribution(s) ==

Hi Schissel,
I'm a wikipedia newbie who's trying to add to a page about the Missa Gaudeamus of Josquin.
This is my first article, so I'm quite cautious both from a technical and historical point of view.
I've just started compiling the "sources" section, here are my attempts as far as now

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:UneMusqueDeBiscaye#Sources

when documenting online I've found the imslp page at

http://imslp.org/wiki/Missa_Gaudeamus_%28Josquin_Desprez%29

in which you've indicated a Liepzig print (of 1836) which attributed the mass to Ockegem.
I was wondering if you have additional information about it and if you deem my sources section correct and adequate for wikipedia. The interesting point is about the paternity of the edition abscribed to Friedrich Rochlitz...

any suggestion or hints?

thanks a lot for your magnificent work on imslp, hope you will appreciate my little effort to bring Missa Gaudeamus to a larger audience, since it is really a piece of fine art...

:Yes. Adagio is not a disambiguation page - a disambiguation page would provide disambiguation and redirect links for all of its components, which Adagio does not - so Adagio is a target page; in particular, the link referred to Adagio as a composition, and no further redirection was suggested for that, so I linked directly to Adagio, which was the only page available. So I am making no change. Go away until you have something ''relevant'' to say. [[User:Schissel|Schissel]] | [[User_talk:Schissel|Sound the Note!]] 14:17, 25 February 2014 (UTC)

==Sick Septet no. 1==


Hello Schissel,
I noticed that you had typeset the bassoon part of the Theodor Sick Septet no. 1 (op 25).
I'm in the process of typesetting a complete score and a set of parts, but I figured I'd check if you were working on the rest, so as not to duplicate efforts.
ps. do you know anything about Sick? I found nothing on a quick internet search, but the septet looks pretty good.
Thanks,
Rgotlib
[[User:Rgotlib|Rgotlib]] ([[User talk:Rgotlib|talk]]) 16:48, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

:I was working on more but I've set it aside, other projects to do... go ahead! There's a Danish biography of Sick linked to from the DKB website, let me see... well, there's [[:da:Th. B. Sick|Wikipedia (Danish)]] (which uses the other bio I referred to as reference, I think.) [[User:Schissel|Schissel]] | [[User_talk:Schissel|Sound the Note!]] 17:59, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

ok, thanks. I'll put it up on imslp when it's done.
[[User:Rgotlib|Rgotlib]] ([[User talk:Rgotlib|talk]]) 18:56, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

:Neat, looking forward to it. Another thing someone should consider, I keep thinking, is asking the DKB to scan at least one of the many other chamber works by Sick they hold - quite a few string quartets, violin sonatas, cello sonatas, etc., mostly also only in manuscript, listed in their catalog... (the use of "Th. B. Sick" on the manuscripts, together with duplicated opus numbers related to different works and some other stuff, that maybe we're not talking about one composer but maybe two with the same initials- brothers, maybe?... don't know... ... anyway...) [[User:Schissel|Schissel]] | [[User_talk:Schissel|Sound the Note!]] 21:17, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

I'm all for that. I play cello, and I'd be ''very'' interested in seeing those cello sonatas. Do you have any pull with the DKB? (I'm stuck on long island...)

:I gather anyone (it helps to know Danish- which I really don't) can sign up for an account there and request for a work to be digitized. I think... [[User:Schissel|Schissel]] | [[User_talk:Schissel|Sound the Note!]] 00:39, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

Sorry to keep bothering you, but another question: I just realized that it was you who had scanned in the Fritz Kauffmann cello concerto. I've made a piano reduction, and played it a few times with pianists: it seems a worthy composition. I just completed typesetting the orchestral parts for the first movement (with a view toward playing it with an orchestra), and I wonder: do you know if orchestral parts were available wherever you acquired the score?

:The source of my scan was [http://hdl.handle.net/1802/12614 Sibley Library] (or as it shows up at IMSLP, "US-R" - US- Rochester.) The Fleisher Collection of the Free Library of Philadelphia does have the parts, though (see [http://know.freelibrary.org/vufind/Record/747575 Free Library Link].) That section of the library only loans out to institutions, though... The solo cello part, and piano reduction, are at some other libraries (University of Southern California, for instance.) (Other works of Kauffmann's listed by, but not always at, e.g. the Library of Congress catalog include a symphony in A minor Op.18 (pub.1886), piano sonatas (opp.7, 11 pub. 1882, 1883), piano trios (trio no.1 op.9 pub.1881, 1trio no.2 op.20, pub.1887), a string quartet Op.14 (which IMSLP has...),  three other concertos- for piano and violin I think (a concerto in D minor Op.27 for violin pub. in 1894, a 2nd violin concerto pub.1909, a piano concerto in C minor Op.25 pub. in 1893), a Dramatic Overture for orchestra Op.23, and an Abendmusik for string quartet (etc.) [[User:Schissel|Schissel]] | [[User_talk:Schissel|Sound the Note!]] 05:09, 3 January 2015 (UTC)

== Symphony in G minor (Moeran) ==

Greetings and best wishes from Amsterdam. I just made Moerans [[Symphony in G minor (Moeran)]] on the dutch version with most of the details of this English article. However coming to Boults version, I disagree. Boult recorded the work with the New Philharmonia Orchestra for Lyrita, see [http://www.amazon.com/Moeran-Conducting-Philharmonia-Orchestra-London-LP/dp/B003XW0Y7G Amazon LP]. The London P as mentioned in the article was "used" for the other works on the Lyrita cd-release.If I am wrong please let me know.[[User:Ceescamel|Ceescamel]] ([[User talk:Ceescamel|talk]]) 21:56, 4 January 2015 (UTC)

:I'll look into it. At a guess: (1) you're very likely right (2) Amazon.com is ''not'' generally a source I'd rely on, however. I've found some outright temporally impossible statements at sites like Amazon, ImdB (and here, too, but, well, easier to fix them here, relatively, I think...  

:But getting back to topic, I'd use something more official for a source, if one can be found- either a book about Boult, perhaps, with a discography; or a library catalog card entry. Also fallible - library catalog entries have some interesting misattributions, though librarians are on-the-whole willing to discuss and fix them, if convinced, I find..., but on the whole, I think, better than some other sources anyway.  (My only contribution to the Moeran symphony article here, I ''believe'', was the date of publication of the score, by the way :) - but happy to discuss!... ) Ah! There it is. {{OCLC|10632467}} . [[User:Schissel|Schissel]] | [[User_talk:Schissel|Sound the Note!]] 22:15, 4 January 2015 (UTC)

Thank you. Normally Amazon is not a favorite source, but they had an original copy of the Lyrita-LP cover (as Ebay had). I tried to find the backcover of the Lyrita CD but couldnot find it. Discogs mentioned the NPO as well, but again no picture.

== Thorleif Windingstad ==

Greetings, the result of reading some different pages....I was working on articles of some not well-known Norwegian composers for the Dutch Wiki. They were named in an ad for Ny Musik in the Aftenposten of 19.12.1917. In that ad was named ''Romance for violin eller cello og piano'' by Windingstad. Publisher Oluf By. In a later edition of the newspaper (probably evening) there was also an article about new works of December 1917 (by Hjalmar Borgstrom). Then going to IMLSP (I lost my password there) I found the sheet music without the full name of the composer and the year of publishing. Well, composer was Thorleif Windingstad, an organist (and for a year mayor) from (of) Sandefjord. He was the father of the more famous conductor Ole Windingstad. Here is the link to [[http://www.nb.no/nbsok/nb/262789c532d87fd1e8d491e574e87b85?index=1 Aftenposten]]. I don't know if it works directly, otherwise type "Aftenposten 1917.12.19" in "Search", chose "Aviser". [[User:Ceescamel|Ceescamel]] ([[User talk:Ceescamel|talk]]) 12:29, 21 June 2015 (UTC)

==Publication dates and access dates ==
I'm sorry, I don't know what you mean by "maps from territories and pointers from things themselves". If you could specify which edit/edit summary you're talking about, it would help.

In general, publication date (when available), much like author, title, etc. is an integral piece of the publication information about a given work when that work is cited as a source. It makes no sense to leave it out, but to note when an editor accessed the source, any more than it makes sense to persistently omit the name of the author, both of which are practices that I've observed on the part of many editors.

Both a biographer as Schott-Music mention 18th of april 1909 (link on the dutch). IMSLP however mentions first of may 1909. Maybe you can do something with that, I am not a member of IMSLP anymore.[[User:Ceescamel|Ceescamel]] ([[User talk:Ceescamel|talk]]) 09:20, 14 May 2016 (UTC)
:Hopefully a scholarly biography of the composer, or a dissertation about the piece, can shed some light on the discrepancy and give a settled answer. I'll try to have a look. [[User:Schissel|Schissel]] | [[User_talk:Schissel|Sound the Note!]] 11:51, 14 May 2016 (UTC)
:April 18 1909 for the first version, according to "Sergei Rachmaninoff: A Lifetime in Music" p157. then revised the tonepoem and conducted it in December 1909 in Chicago (p163). [[User:Schissel|Schissel]] | [[User_talk:Schissel|Sound the Note!]] 02:24, 14 June 2016 (UTC)

== Anton Averkamp ==

Sorry to bother you again about IMSLP. I am writing an article about Aton Averkamp and saw his composition ''Elaine und Lancelot'' there (loaded by you). The first performance ("voor het eerst") took place in Utrecht on march 16th 1898 (woensdag). It was reviewed in a dutch newspaper of [http://resolver.kb.nl/resolve?urn=ddd:010162252:mpeg21:a0011 march 19th (zaterdag)]].[[User:Ceescamel|Ceescamel]] ([[User talk:Ceescamel|talk]]) 11:28, 5 June 2016 (UTC)

== Henri Appy ==

Hello again, I am working through two Dutch music guides from 1911 and 1881. There I saw the name Appy (Appij). I worked through the entire family (a lot musicians there). Looking at [http://imslp.org/wiki/Category:Appy,_Henri IMSLP] I saw you were looking for information about this composer. Well together with the man behind [http://composers-classical-music.com/a/AppyJeanHenri.htm another composer site] and a site of Rochester musicians I came to the article [[:nl:Henri Appy]]. I read some dutch and american newspapers as well. The date of birth in the article was controlled by me in the Civil registration, because it differs from site to site.[[User:Ceescamel|Ceescamel]] ([[User talk:Ceescamel|talk]]) 09:19, 11 June 2016 (UTC)

== Concertino pour violoncelle et orchestre ==

Dear Schissel. Answer to the above. Writing about the dutch musicians hard enough. The way the program of IMSLP works, was too difficult for me, but who knows in the future. The work above [http://imslp.org/wiki/Concertino_for_Cello_and_Orchestra,_Op.57_(Roussel,_Albert) Roussel] is dedicated to Marix Loevensohn, a famous Belgium celloplayer. During a long period he was solocellist of the Concertgebouworchestra.

== Extended confirmed protection ==

{{ivmbox|1=Hello, Schissel. This message is intended to notify administrators of important changes to the protection policy.

[[WP:BLUELOCK|Extended confirmed protection]] (also known as "30/500 protection") is a new level of page protection that only allows edits from accounts at least 30 days old and with 500 edits. The automatically assigned [[WP:EXTENDEDCONFIRMED|"extended confirmed" user right]] was created for this purpose. The protection level was created following [[Wikipedia:Village pump (proposals)/Archive 129#New usergroup with autopromotion to implement arbitration "30-500" bans as a page protection|this community discussion]] with the primary intention of enforcing various arbitration remedies that prohibited editors under the "30 days/500 edits" threshold to edit certain topic areas.

In July and August 2016, [[WP:ECP2016|a request for comment]] established consensus for community use of the new protection level. Administrators are authorized to apply extended confirmed protection to combat any form of disruption (e.g. vandalism, sock puppetry, edit warring, etc.) on any topic, subject to the following conditions:
* '''Extended confirmed protection may only be used in cases where semi-protection has proven ineffective'''. It should not be used as a first resort.
* '''A bot will post a notification at [[Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard]] of each use'''. MusikBot currently does this by updating [[User:MusikBot/ECPMonitor/Report|a report]], which is transcluded onto the noticeboard.
Please review [[Wikipedia:Protection policy#Extended confirmed protection|the protection policy]] carefully before using this new level of protection on pages. Thank you. <br><small>This message was sent to the administrators' [[Wikipedia:Administrators/Message list|mass message list]].

== Jules ten Brink ==

Hell again, I just made [[:nl:Jules ten Brink]] for the dutch Wikipedia. On IMSLP there is some discussion about his date of passing away. In the dutch article there is a link to Le Menestrel, with an obituary (necrologie). Le Menestrel was coming out on sunday feb 10th; the obituary names mecredi (Wednesday). So he died the 6th. I changed somewhat on IMSLP the last months, but such a correction is (still) too difficult for me. Greetings,[[User:Ceescamel|Ceescamel]] ([[User talk:Ceescamel|talk]]) 12:06, 10 October 2016 (UTC)

== Two-Factor Authentication now available for admins ==

Hello,

Please note that [[Time-based One-time Password Algorithm|TOTP]] based two-factor authentication is now available for all administrators. In light of the recent compromised accounts, you are encouraged to add this additional layer of security to your account. It may be enabled on your [[Special:Preferences|preferences page]] in the "User profile" tab under the "Basic information" section. For basic instructions on how to enable two-factor authentication, please see the [[Help:Two-factor authentication|developing help page]] for additional information. '''Important''': Be sure to record the two-factor authentication key and the single use keys. If you lose your two factor authentication and do not have the keys, it's possible that your account will not be recoverable. Furthermore, you are encouraged to utilize a unique password and two-factor authentication for the email account associated with your Wikimedia account. This measure will assist in safeguarding your account from malicious password resets. Comments, questions, and concerns may be directed to the [[Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard#Two-Factor_Authentication_now_available_for_admins|thread on the administrators' noticeboard]].

== A new user right for New Page Patrollers ==

Hi {{BASEPAGENAME}}.

A new user group, [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Reviewers|'''New Page Reviewer''']], has been created in a move to greatly improve the standard of new page patrolling. The user right can be granted by any admin at [[Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/New page reviewer|PERM]]. It is highly recommended that admins look beyond the simple numerical threshold and satisfy themselves that the candidates have the required skills of communication and an advanced knowledge of notability and deletion. Admins are automatically included in this user right.

It is anticipated that this user right will significantly reduce the work load of admins who patrol the performance of the patrollers. However,due to the complexity of the rollout, some rights may have been accorded that may later need to be withdrawn, so some help will still be needed to some extent when discovering wrongly applied deletion tags or inappropriate pages that escape the attention of less experienced reviewers, and above all, hasty and bitey tagging for maintenance. User warnings are available [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Templates|here]] but very often a friendly custom message works best. 

If you have any questions about this user right, don't hesitate to join us at [[WT:NPR]]. <small>''(Sent to all admins)''</small>.[[User:MediaWiki message delivery|MediaWiki message delivery]] ([[User talk:MediaWiki message delivery|talk]]) 13:47, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

== Symphony No. 6 (Bax) ==

Greetings from the Netherlands again. I made the Dutch version of [[Symphony No. 6 (Bax)]] and there are some differences in orchestration and premiere. Reading the printed score on IMSLP there are indeed 3 flutes, but flute 3 is also playing the piccolo (see page 2 of part 1; change to flute). The clarinet III is also playing the Es-clarinet (also mentioned in the early pages of part 1). Strange is that IMSLP takes the orchestration of the Wikipedia, while there have the printed score.  For the premiere Foreman and Parlett mentioned the London Philharmonic Orchestra ''at'' the Royal Philharmonic Society. The Royal Philharmonic did not existed then (only from 1946). Please confirm my marks and change the article on Wiki and IMSLP if I am right. For me, Bax's 3 is the best.[[User:Ceescamel|Ceescamel]] ([[User talk:Ceescamel|talk]]) 11:17, 26 December 2017 (UTC)

== Hrm. Bye soon :) ==

I'll just note that 
*until and unless I figure out a way to turn off 2-factor authentication (... nope)
*then once my browsers (edit: Chrome on desktop; the others seem to have lost it already) lose my "saved-for-several-months" login info,
*I will no longer be able to connect to Wikipedia probably ever again (for a simple reason: Google authenticators seem to be broken on my phone, and ------ if I have been able to fix it. So no more logging into Wikipedia the next time my browsers all ask me for my password and my authentication keys, for I shall be unable to provide. So it goes. Bye in advance.)

Hee. I can't even disable 2-factor authentication from the one computer and browser on which I '''am''' logged in, because it demands a code from my authentication device which I can no longer supply. Well, I was warned about this- that if I lost my authentication keys I would lose my account unrecoverably (at least, once this login expires in x days.) So goes.

: Recently, several Wikipedia admin accounts were compromised.  The admin accounts were [[WP:LEVEL1|desysopped on an emergency basis]].  In the past, the Committee often resysopped admin accounts as a matter of course once the admin was back in control of their account.  The committee has updated its guidelines.  Admins may now be required to undergo a fresh [[WP:RFA|Request for Adminship (RfA)]] after losing control of their account.

; What do I need to do?
: Only to follow the instructions in this message.
:# Check that your password is unique (not reused across sites).
:# Check that your password is strong (not simple or guessable).
:# Enable Two-factor authentication (2FA), if you can, to create a second hurdle for attackers.

; How can I find out more about two-factor authentication (2FA)?
: You can find out more about 2FA at [[m:2FA]].

== Administrator account security (Correction to Arbcom 2019 special circular) ==

ArbCom would like to apologise and correct our previous mass message in light of the response from the community.

Since November 2018, six administrator accounts have been compromised and temporarily desysopped. In an effort to help improve account security, our intention was to remind administrators of existing policies on account security — that they are [[Wikipedia:Administrators#Security|required]] to "have strong passwords and [[Wikipedia:Personal security practices|follow appropriate personal security practices]]." We have [[Special:Permalink/891851004#Return of permissions for compromised administrator accounts|updated]] our procedures to ensure that we enforce these policies more strictly in the future. The policies themselves have not changed. In particular, [[WP:2FA|two-factor authentication]] remains an ''optional'' means of adding extra security to your account. The choice not to enable 2FA will not be considered when deciding to restore sysop privileges to administrator accounts that were compromised. 

We are sorry for the wording of our previous message, which did not accurately convey this, and deeply regret the tone in which it was delivered. 

For the Arbitration Committee, -[[User:Cameron11598|Cameron11598]] 21:04, 4 May 2019 (UTC)</small>

== Pending suspension of administrative permissions due to inactivity ==


[[File:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]]
Established [[Wikipedia:Administrators#Procedural removal for inactive administrators|policy]] provides for removal of the administrative permissions of users who have not made any edits or logged actions in the preceding twelve months. Because you have been inactive, your administrative permissions will be removed&#32;if you do not return to activity within the next month.

Inactive administrators are encouraged to rejoin the project in earnest rather than to make token edits to avoid loss of administrative permissions.  Resources and support for reengaging with the project are available at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Editor Retention/administrators]].  If you do not intend to rejoin the project in the foreseeable future, please consider voluntarily resigning your administrative permissions by making a request at [[Wikipedia:Bureaucrats' noticeboard|the bureaucrats' noticeboard]].

This is the same person, different account, as I no longer have access to my old account, having accidentally locked myself out. Feel free to remove privileges. [[User:ELSchissel|ELSchissel]] ([[User talk:ELSchissel|talk]]) 08:26, 1 June 2021 (UTC)
