Does this user id: "2601:9:1100:524:74E7:7872:B6C1:FE39" indicate that the editor is using a cell phone? --Greenmaven (talk) 19:21, 6 December 2013 (UTC)
Hey all. Is this project still being used? I just want to know if anyone is currently taking on students and mentoring them. Y'know, for personal edification. Achowat (talk) 07:07, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
I requested permission to use Stiki (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:STiki/Archive_17#Special_Permission) and wound up here. Not sure what to do but would like use of the tool so if there is something needed from me such as demonstrating my knowledge of vandalism, please let me know. --CNMall41 (talk) 15:38, 25 September 2014 (UTC)

Good day to all,
One of the trainers on the active list, Kharkiv07 (talk · contribs), has been pretty inactive in this field - he has started training with me but has not followed up on my activity. Moreover, another user by the name of Jjjjjjdddddd posted on his talk page to request training, but he didn't respond (his initial request has just been archived. This trainer seems to be inactive on Wikipedia in general and I doubt he should remain listed as an active trainer. Kudpung has informed him of this on his talk page too and if he still doesn't take action, would someone please take his name off the active trainer list (and help me find another?) Thanks so much. <<< SOME GADGET GEEK >>> (talk) 01:14, 4 September 2015 (UTC)
As opposed to going to each available trainer and waiting for a response, I am posting here in hopes that someone is willing to take me on. --CNMall41 (talk) 02:07, 11 October 2015 (UTC)
I am requesting that both User:Chip123456 and User:Vertium be removed from the Trainer list. Chip hasn't contributed to anything since Sept 10th of this year, and Vertium has been extremely inactive over the past few months. The list needs to be updated.

Response: Rather than actually reach out to inactive trainers and see if there's a reason they're inactive or if they might become active again, it's a much better approach to just delete them. My inactivity has nothing to do with time or availability, only the "leadership" of the Academy. I train in real life... so this behavior that WP continues to exhibit of exclusion shall end up killing the project. I used to donate money to the project (a lot). This year, zero. But you'll probably read this and say "good riddance", which is more the pity. Vertium When all is said and done 15:29, 3 December 2015 (UTC)
So I decided to make this (for teachers)!
((User:FriyMan/CVUA))
It makes a nice little userbox -
Does CVUA have a policy regarding activity of trainers on their student's CVUA pages? Many CVUA pages have hardly been updated in months even though students are active and presumably awaiting evaluation of their work. They have to keep notifying their instructor about the CVUA which has led me to suppose that these trainers are hardly taking CVUA seriously, having voluntarily signed up to be one and not even taking responsibility for it. As such, I am thinking that a policy should be in force to ensure that the list of trainers should be active. Any suggestions? <<< SOME GADGET GEEK >>> (talk) 22:53, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
The following is a proposed Wikipedia policy, guideline, or process. The proposal may still be in development, under discussion, or in the process of gathering consensus for adoption. |
Trainers in the CVUA must have edited in the last 3 months to have their names listed at Wikipedia:Counter-Vandalism Unit/Academy/Instructors. If they have not edited in 3 months, a bot will automatically remove their names from the page.
I have been trying to get an instructor for several days now and the four guys that I found are not responding to my messages on their talk pages. Please help me get a mentor and if these four guys don't respond soon, please remove them from the list. Thank you. Pablothepenguin (talk) 22:40, 11 May 2017 (UTC)
I think there should be levels for the CVU. Some people who try to go against vandals do need more training in what they do, but they probably don't have enough edits to qualify for the academy as it is. Softening entry requirements to train more people would be good. Thinker78 (talk) 04:50, 15 December 2017 (UTC)
Hi, I'm eager to do my bit for Wikipedia by learning more about how to counter vandalism. There don't seem to be any available trainer slots at the moment - is this project still active, should I check back here regularly to see if slots are available? Thanks GirthSummit (blether) 19:45, 4 October 2018 (UTC)
Now I’m asking this ONLY for future reference (and others may be helped by this) but is there any edit count requirements to be a teacher in this place? James-the-Charizard (talk) 19:56, 12 September 2019 (UTC)
Hi. Can we please remove link to Wikipedia:Online Ambassadors? I just visited this page; it is labeled as being totally inactive. please advise. thanks. --Sm8900 (talk) 15:46, 4 March 2020 (UTC)
With Kudpung's retirement, User:Kudpung/Anti vandal centre is now a redlink. What are we missing and how should we fix it? Sdkb (talk) 20:28, 22 March 2020 (UTC)
I was wondering about this. I have 135 "mainspace" edits, which is 65 below the threshold to enter the academy. However, discussing on talk pages and user talk pages are also important. So I propose a change. Instead of putting "Mainspace," we should put "Mainspace, Talk, and User Talk." This change would help many editors, (including me,) to be able to get training from the academy. Thanks, Ghinga7 (talk) 04:23, 30 May 2020 (UTC).
Can you unroll me from here? Thanks. New3400 (talk) 20:53, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
How can I join these trainers. I have over 200 edits btw — Preceding unsigned comment added by TigerScientist (talk • contribs) 01:37, 5 December 2020 (UTC)
