I'm not exactly sure why you're protecting all of these. Looking at them, most of them have no history of vandalism or any updates past publishing so this seems like preemptive protection which policy doesn't support. ― Blaze WolfTalkblaze__wolf 03:08, 6 January 2024 (UTC)

Hey JPxG. I was just wondering how you pronounce your username. I've been pronouncing it as jay-pex-gee in my head, but that's a rather obscure pronunciation, and I'd just like to know, since I've been thinking about it more than I probably should. Cheers! Relativity 21:15, 29 December 2023 (UTC)

Hello, yesterday I wrote two articles about companies dealing with artificial intelligence (D-ID and Perplexity.ai). Apart from being a teacher who uses these programs, I have no connection, business or otherwise, with them. As I presented in the sources, these are two articles that I understand from using Wikipedia for years, should exist here. How am I supposed to prove my "innocence"? And how do I transfer these two drafts to the article space? I would appreciate your help Galamore (talk) 07:15, 8 January 2024 (UTC)

I'm not sure if HooptyBot is misbehaving or there's something wrong with the data it pulls from, but User:JPxG/Oracle hasn't updated in a few days.

…at least some of the auto-archiving templates you’re setting up seem to be missing the User talk:
namespace prefix (e.g. [12]), causing the user talk pages in question to be sorted into Category:Pages where archive parameter is not a subpage. (Unless I’m misunderstanding something, which is always possible.)

This page is showing up as one of the longest user talk pages on Wikipedia (currently 20,799 bytes). I'm adding an archiver template so that it doesn't cause issues when people try to load it. This will make Lowercase sigmabot III fix it automatically. Cheers! ClueBot III (talk) 15:09, 10 February 2024 (UTC)

This is a Wikipedia user talk page. This is not an encyclopedia article, or even the talk page for an encyclopedia article. It is a miserable little pile of secrets. Do not consult it for term papers, doctoral dissertations, Congressional committee reports, ecumenical statements, et cetera. |
This user talk page might be watched by friendly talk page stalkers, which means that someone other than me might reply to your query. Their input is welcome and their help with messages that I cannot reply to quickly is appreciated. |
Regarding the page Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Archives/Years, I recreated it as an ((R from move)) because the previous page (now at Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Archives) had previously been at that location for quite a while - as far as I can see, since its creation in 2007. I appreciate that all the internal links were re-pointed via JWB (in fact, one of those edits is how I found the previous title in the first place!); however, I’m concerned about the possibility of external links now being broken.

Hi there! I monitor Category:Pages which use a template in place of a magic word and see that User:JPxG/sandbox99 has been in that category for a few days. I believe it's because of the ((PAGESIZE))
at the top of the page. When you have a moment, could you please take a look at that page? Thanks! GoingBatty (talk) 18:02, 19 January 2024 (UTC)

Is there something we have to do to poke the bot to start transcluding newsroom talkpage items that start with 20-02? I noticed that the new talk page section links from the issue status page try to create a 20-01 topic, which would be the previous issue unless I'm really mixed up. ☆ Bri (talk) 22:57, 24 January 2024 (UTC)
I hope this message finds you well. :)
Issue/BLUF: I had a run-in with a user who I believe is either WP:NOTHERE or does not understand policy. I would appreciate if you a) told me this does not reach the point of taking actions, b) took actions or c) referred me to an adequate enforcement mechanism, depending on your assessment of the situation.
Evidence:
I think this page speaks for itself User talk:NadVolum.
I encountered 2 specific issues myself.
1. they referred to media as “run by jews”. While not in a clearly malicious context, Source, the interaction isn’t great:
:::Euro-Med has not gone in for full blown unedited passing on of anti semitic stuff like Mondoweiss. I think it is quite interesting how Mondoweiss is actually run by jews as far as I know. If they can believe the rape denial business then they really are pissed off about and think the worst of Israel! so what are we to think is exceptional? I've given up wondering if an atrocity there is exceptional but I'm happy enough with needing two reasonably independent sources. NadVolum (talk) 19:44, 19 January 2024 (UTC)
Their reaction It hadn't occurred to me that being called an american or a christian could be taken as slurs. I'm sorry I offended anyone. I was not determining reliability by whether Jews ran it. was not great, but also not horrible.
2. Logically incompatible voting probably only explainable by either not understanding policy or ignoring it.:
I see no reason to use them, and suggests they peddle in conspiracy theories
When asked about it, he responded with (days later): Actually I was interested in seeing what kind of response the people who push for NGO Monitor being counted as a reliable site would make when it is used to support having a site they want to remove!, which isn’t great. He also states below: Well actully I wouldn't consider NGO Monitor as a reliable source for anything. FortunateSons (talk) 12:41, 25 January 2024 (UTC)
Hi JPxG. Just wanted to leave a friendly reminder that you left yourself a note to finish your answers at User:Clovermoss/Editor reflections in December but haven't had a chance to do so yet. I figured that maybe it slipped your mind. I'm not in any rush so take your time if you need it. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 00:48, 28 January 2024 (UTC)

Hello, JPxG. About two weeks ago, there was some discussion on VPP about the phenomenon of Wikipedia having hundreds of short articles on very similar topics when fewer articles or a list would suffice. See Wikipedia:Village pump (policy)#Do we really need over 600 articles on individual Samsung products? Following up on the sentiments expressed in that discussion, and the previous AfD, I wanted to know your thoughts on the idea of merging/redirecting various eclipse articles sourced only to old news articles and NASA databases to their respective List of solar eclipses (by year) lists. If implemented, this would result in 90-95% or so of all eclipse articles being redirected. I thought to propose this idea to you first given your participation in the AfD and your interest in editing and improving various eclipse articles. regards, TryKid [dubious – discuss] 04:46, 30 January 2024 (UTC)
Hello,
User:JPxG/sandbox99 is currently in Category:Pages which use a template in place of a magic word as it uses ((subst:PAGESIZE))
and ((subst:FULLPAGENAME))
. Could you please modify the page somehow so this won't happen (either use the magic word without subst:
or remove it entirely). Thanks! ~ Eejit43 (talk) 16:37, 30 January 2024 (UTC)
Hi, I see you're active at Signpost pages today, and I assume you will declare the issue ready to publish later. I wonder if it would make sense for me to do the actual publishing on your go-ahead? It's been a while since I did, and maybe giving the scripts a test run would give us more confidence that there are two people who can do it?
If the answer is yes, please let me know what script to use; my configuration is still pointing to User:Evad37/SPS.js
