I had asked this question on 11 June 2019 about the time I created an account while using VPN. I had provided my U.S. university email Later I am informed a proxy IP address is forbidden. I am seeking to use the original name "Borg Master". Is that possible? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2606:6000:FD09:6400:C8F1:2D9A:3BC3:E1CD (talk) 23:01, 25 June 2019 (UTC)
Orville1974 Thank for the encouragement. However, when I input "Borg Master", the system says "The username "Borg Master" is too similar to the following usernames: BorgMaster Borgmaster Please choose another username." These are the other names I chose while using VPN, not realizing VPN was forbidden, as I had added/edited previously w/o an account. Is there a time limit for the restriction? It has been months so far.
Sorry to bother you again with all this, but I am rather attached to the monicker. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2606:6000:FD09:6400:C8F1:2D9A:3BC3:E1CD (talk) 01:04, 26 June 2019 (UTC)
((subst:usurp |TARGET NAME <--- overwrite TARGETNAME with BorgMaster |reason= YOUR REASON <--- overwrite YOUR REASON with the reason you want to change your name |link=|usurponly=))
Then click the publish changes button. It will take about a month for them to approve the name change in order to give the old user a chance to object (although it's unlikely with 0 edits and 6 years since the last activity). Good luck!

After spending a week researching sources and creating a page specifying the details of the page in the subject heading, it would appear that it has been deleted, and redirected to a mere skimming of the information on this page: Motion Picture Sound Editors. I would care to know why the resources that I found, from reputable sources, were not as useful as this, https://www.mpse.org/, as it does not contain the information that I found. Unlike the link that was made to the MPSE homepage, my page for the award contained names of the actual winners, and that of the other nominees. I would like to know what the issue was, and why it was, apparently, not as good as a hagiography of the award.
Why, exactly, were they unnecessary? What, exactly, is necessary? By that varied benchmark, any bit of information can simply be deemed unnecessary, depending on "importance", a rather subjective column. I'm aware that the list that I have provided don't contain some particularly illuminating bits of information, but I found it a bit odd that a public information website is in the business of deleting facts in the name of "importance". P.S. I only used the mpse website as a source during the most recent years, as they were unhelpful in early goings. I used sources from The Hollywood Reporter and Variety, among others, who specialize in the entertainment industry, hence they're usage.

I'm attempting to move File:FedEx Office Logo.svg using Extension:FileImporter and I'm getting this error: "Can't import file because at least one of its revisions contains a suppressed file." The file had been a NFC logo previously and was resized to fit NFC guidelines, and the original was deleted file version was deleted per NFC. I suspect that's causing the error. Can I get assistance either un-deleting/un-hiding the previous version or having it moved over to the Commons via a different tool?--The Navigators (talk) 02:36, 26 June 2019 (UTC)
This error is showing up in Isaac Newton. I don't have time to figure out what the problem is. Clarityfiend (talk) 07:06, 26 June 2019 (UTC)

Is there a way to find the wikipedia page displayed yesterday (6/25/19)? I am looking for the article on a plant that was shown but cannot recall the name of the plant and a key word search has not worked, — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:2C3:4300:2440:E580:A2AE:BC41:1851 (talk) 12:22, 26 June 2019 (UTC)
Sir, you told on the help desk that if you get the information that from where Dr. Shamsheer Vayalil belong then you will certainly add this information in the article (in early life paragraph). Then you must know that he belongs from "KOZHIKODE" district in KERALA. You visit to References paragraph present in Dr. Shamsheer's article and click on Reference number 17. Then a page will get open from where you can find this information. Hope, now this information may be added. Thanks. (223.230.159.62 (talk) 16:57, 26 June 2019 (UTC))
