Protecting Pages

Why are you protecting pages? First, you were protecting pages so that only sysops could move them, but only sysops can move page already, so it's pointless. Now, you're protecting pages so only users can edit them, but that's already the case too..

I don't understand what you're trying to do... Besides, only pages used by MediaWiki should be protected... --JulienDethurens 17:16, 21 March 2012 (EDT)

If I sysop-edit-protect a page, it will automatically be move protected. ~ ⇒TomTomN00 @ 16:33, 22 March 2012 (UTC) 12:33, 22 March 2012 (EDT)

The point is, that they are already move protected from anyone but a sysop. †MrNicNac - Wiki Editor †

Wikipedia and Other Wikis

I don't mean to sound aggressive or anything, but you don't need to "brag" about being a Wikipedia Bureaucrat and Admin, you know.. --JulienDethurens 19:47, 25 March 2012 (EDT)

Been trying to fix that, for a LONG time.. ~ ⇒TomTomN00 @ 15:24, 26 March 2012 (UTC)

Don't review user subpages

I just noticed that you have previously reviewed my scripting guide, and I would just like to tell you that you shouldn't review pages in the user namespace, or any other namespace than the main one. Actually, you shouldn't even review pages at all, unless they are already reviewed and have pending changes, as the reviewing system is going to be removed.

Anyways, just wondering, why did you even review it at all..? --JulienDethurens 17:53, 27 March 2012 (EDT)

I guess that's up to the admins to decide. --JulienDethurens 18:27, 27 March 2012 (EDT)

Where did you hear about removing the reviewing system? †MrNicNac - Wiki Editor †

Anaminus said it was going to be removed and to not review any new pages until it is removed. --JulienDethurens 20:36, 27 March 2012 (EDT)

Sure, I shall not review more pages, unless it's my userpage to remove the Pending Changes bar. ~ ⇒TomTomN00 @ 16:04, 28 March 2012 (UTC)

I did say not to review any unreviewed pages, but I never said it was going to be removed. --Anaminus 14:07, 28 March 2012 (EDT)

Why are you protecting templates and images on a SECURE Wiki? That is completely pointless. Just because you can, does not mean you need to. †MrNicNac - Senior Wiki Editor †

Yeah this is getting really annoying now, I don't even edit the wiki much anymore, and even I'm noticing it.

If you wish, I'll stop. :/ ~ ⇒TomTomN00 @ 13:46, 5 April 2012 (UTC)

I agree. Templates don't need to be protected, actually, nothing needs to be protected except the pages used by MediaWiki, which are all already protected. Just don't protect anything at all. Especially not the documentation of templates, since template documentation is definitely the last thing that needs to be protected. --JulienDethurens 16:53, 5 April 2012 (EDT)
