Hi. You closed this, but the article had been moved to [[Amitava Nag]], which still bears the AfD template.

Hi Missvain! I wrote a comment on the AfD page with a list of further accounts which may benefit from a second look. I would be happy to chat with you or answer any questions. I've used IP accounts in the past, mostly from University of Waterloo, which would match this user account. I don't remember all details, and my experience and knowledge of how Wikipedia works was extremely limited for many years (and still is). It's been a long time since I've been in an edit war, and I don't think I was the one that started any of them. As you can see in my comment on the AfD page, there's been 20+ accounts that tried to remove referenced material in the project/article I created. Many of those were sockpuppets (as it says on their ban notice) or meatpuppets, and I often used IP addresses to revert their edits. Is it allows? I'm not sure, but I never meant to do anything destructive to anyone's project and I was always just trying to help protect the projects I started. I would like to continue trying to be a positive contributor on Wikipedia, and to learn from passed errors in judgement. I request that my IP doesn't get exposed. I'm happy to talk! Thank you :) [[User:Dr. Universe|Dr. Universe]] ([[User talk:Dr. Universe|talk]]) 06:01, 25 May 2021 (UTC)

For all of the complaints today

Today is my official 15th anniversary of editing Wikipedia. Missvain (talk) 19:46, 20 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Missvain, 👍 Like Wow, congrats! ---Another Believer (Talk) 20:05, 20 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Ha! Thank you Missvain (talk) 20:07, 20 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks so much for all your terrific work User:Missvain. Your civility and inclusivity are an inspiration to many of us. Thanks for all you do!!! I hope lots of good health and good times are yours. You deserve them. FloridaArmy (talk) 00:40, 21 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

New article

Thank you very much for the new, impressive article about Dominic Foppoli. Obviously a lot of work; I appreciate your taking the time. -- John Broughton (♫♫) 22:56, 21 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you John Broughton! It means a lot to hear that. Missvain (talk) 15:25, 22 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Just wondering, isn't 3 relistings a bit much? SilverserenC 19:26, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think so. This will be the last relisting. Missvain (talk) 19:27, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

"Search for" edits?

Why are you adding {{search for}} to a lot of open AFDs? I noticed this diff, and I'm not sure why the box is necessary there. User:力 (power~enwiki, π, ν) 20:35, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It's sort of a psuedo way for me to track what AfDs I've been following (I review all AfDs multiple times before they are closed) and also maybe encourage people to do a little more substantial research before just !voting. I know there is the bar across the top, but, this box is a little bit fancier and has direct links. Shouldn't be anything anyone should worry about, lol.

Modifying Checkuser Blocks

Please see Template:CheckUser block.

Administrators: CheckUsers have access to confidential system logs not accessible by the public or administrators due to the Wikimedia Foundation's privacy policy. You must not loosen or remove this block, or issue an IP block exemption, without consulting a CheckUser or the Arbitration Committee.

You had removed the checkuser-block designation on the block in question, and reduced it from two weeks to one day. SQLQuery me! 21:57, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ack!! That was absolutely not intentional. My apologies. Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I apologize for any inconvenience I caused! Missvain (talk) 21:59, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
No worries. It hadn't expired yet, so no harm done. You're welcome to set it to 3mos if you want. SQLQuery me! 22:06, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. You closed this, but the article had been moved to Amitava Nag, which still bears the AfD template. Onel5969 TT me 04:10, 25 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
