Add topicTest wiki custodian ?
[edit]Hi, it seems like you are a test wiki custodian but you are deleting random pages from different projects. In my understanding only sysop can do that, but as a test-sysop if you do this it is misuse. Please explain your recent actions. Thanks. -- ꠢꠣꠍꠘ ꠞꠣꠎꠣ (talk) 06:19, 28 August 2024 (UTC)
- Hi, just checked and apparently I am a test wiki custodian. The point is, believe it or not, I wasn't aware of this. I asked for temporary rights on all test wikis, as you can see from Wikiversity:Candidates for Custodianship. But instead I was only made a test sysop. So I guess I missed it when I obtained the rights. We should ask @Crochet.david: to clear up the confusion.
- So I apologize if my actions seem inappropriate, but at the same time I don't believe they are. The latest batch of my deletions is English-language pages which have mostly been copied to English Wikiversity, a few empty pages, unneeded templates, some spam etc. I'm fairly certain that my intervention into test wikis other than Ukrainian is (at the moment) quite minuscule. Of course, this theoretically isn't part of a test sysop's remit, but I think those pages ought to have been deleted a long time ago anyway, they're not "random" as you stated. In any case, I'm not shirking the responsibility for my actions, and I'm willing to explain my reasoning to anyone authorized to judge. AtUkr (talk) 12:58, 28 August 2024 (UTC)
Deletion of page මුල් පිටුව
[edit]You have deleted the page: මුල් පිටුව, and then removed it from the language list on the main page, claiming it is a test page; right? That was the landing page for Sinhala language beta wikiversity page; wasn't it? Do you think the action was correct? -- Lee (talk) 04:55, 18 July 2025 (UTC)
- I am aware that it was supposed to be the Sinhala testwiki main page. However, here is the entire wikicode of that deleted page:
{{:මුල් පිටුව /ඉහළ}}{{රාමුව|විකිසරසවිය:දැන්වීම්/si}}__NOTOC__
== විකි සරසවිය යනු කුමක්ද? ==
විකි සරසවිය යනු [[විකිමාධ්ය පදනම|විකිමාධ්ය පදනමෙහි]] ව්යාපෘතියකි.
[[Category:SI]]
- So two templates and a single sentence stating that Wikiversity is a project of the Wikimedia Foundation. That is simply useless. The only effect that page had was maintaining the illusion that a Sinhala test wiki really existed, while in reality it was only that stub of a main page and its templates. So yes, I considered it a test, more of an attempt than a real, useful page.
- I see that you're a Sinhala speaker yourself. In that case, I invite you to translate the project's Main Page into your language. (Click "Translate this page" at the top) That will provide a real starting point for Sinhala speakers to understand what Beta Wikiversity is. AtUkr (talk) 05:12, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

[edit]Linking in edit summaries
[edit]Please note that bare URLs like "https://w.wiki/HeQU" are not autolinked in edit summaries the way they are in regular wiki pages (here I have suppressed the autolinking by using 'nowiki'), so those references in your latest page deletion edit summaries are not very convenient for readers. In this case, you could have used "[[Special:PermanentLink/381479]]" (rendered as Special:PermanentLink/381479 in edit summaries as well as on normal pages). The slightly shorter "Permalink" can also be used instead of "PermanentLink". - dcljr (talk) 01:41, 30 January 2026 (UTC)
- Understood, thank you. AtUkr (talk) 13:14, 30 January 2026 (UTC)
Protecting pages
[edit]Hi. Can you protect Trang Chính? This is a main page of Vietnamese, which is a highly visible page, so it shouldn't be edited by logged-out editors to prevent vandalism. Nvdtn19 (talk) 07:49, 31 January 2026 (UTC)
Імейл повідомлення
[edit]Привіт, тільки зараз прочитав ваш імейл. Ці сторінки про що ви згадали швидше за все більше не потрібні. Адже інформація на них насправді вже стара) Все одно сподіваюсь, що коли-небудь повернусь до цього проєкту, просто наразі не вистачає енергії. Vogone (talk) 20:25, 31 March 2026 (UTC)
- Hi, thanks for the reply. (Not sure which language I should use now, lol) Anyways, those pages make up much of the LT test project, so I'll be deleting them in order to clear up the real situation. Much obliged. AtUkr (talk) 20:32, 31 March 2026 (UTC)

[edit]Deletion of Dvidešimtainė skaičiavimo sistema
[edit]Deleted Dvidešimtainė skaičiavimo sistema in lithuanian. Can you give more detailed explanation? Thank you. --Kusurija (talk) 15:47, 23 June 2026 (UTC)
- Kursas:Kaip redaguoti puslapį/viktorina dtto, and all pages in lithuanian... ? --Kusurija (talk) 16:21, 23 June 2026 (UTC)...22 April 2026--Kusurija (talk) 16:23, 23 June 2026 (UTC)
- 21:26, 22 April 2026 AtUkr talk contribs deleted page Pagrindinis puslapis (Abandoned resource (via JWB)) ??--Kusurija (talk) 16:28, 23 June 2026 (UTC)
- Dvidešimtainė skaičiavimo sistema and other pages in Category:Skaičiavimo sistemos were simply lists of numbers converted to different numeral systems. Those could've worked as appendices for a proper course, but not as standalone educational resources. Not to mention those pages were more than 10 years old and yet not made use of in any way.
- Kursas:Kaip redaguoti puslapį/viktorina was marked as a work in progress, except no work was being done there for those same 10 years.
- The rest consisted mostly of pages dedicated to courses offered by the Vilnius University. Now Wikiversity is not meant to host such materials, but even if it was, the pages included the name of a course, the amount of ECTS credits assigned, and a link to the course's webpage on the university's website - and very rarely anything else. Plus many links were already broken. All in all, the final conclusion was that the test wiki had no viable educational content, and there was no hope of fixing it as no users had worked on it for more than 10 years. As such, it was deleted entirely, main page included.
- Of course, if you want the pages you created to be restored, I'm not at all opposed to having them moved to your user space. But they're not suitable for a proper test project. AtUkr (talk) 19:05, 23 June 2026 (UTC)
- Yes, restore them, and those I had edited too to my userspace. --Kusurija (talk) 21:03, 23 June 2026 (UTC)
