Mason, it has been a pleasure to work with you over this past year. Your dedication maintaining the plethora of category header templates, your responsiveness to requests to implement various discussions (regardless of how much work it might take to do them!), and your creativity in coming up with ways to repurpose categories are noticed and appreciated :) Thank you for everything this year, and here's to another productive year improving what could reasonably be called humanity's greatest collection of knowledge – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia that anyone can edit. Wishing all the best to you and yours in 2025, HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 03:21, 22 December 2024 (UTC) |
:That is so thoughtful of you! Thank you so much for the kind words and appreciation!!!!! SMasonGarrison 03:35, 22 December 2024 (UTC)

[[:Category:American radicals]] has been nominated for deletion
Robert Gilbert
Somalian?
I saw that you moved the Somali-related category to "Somalian". It is common knowledge that adjectives referring to Somalis should be written as “Somali.” When comparing the number of papers written after 2024 on “Somali diaspora” and “Somalian diaspora” using Google Scholar, the former yields 411 hits, while the latter yields only 5 hits. I hope you will update your knowledge about Somalis. Freetrashbox (talk) 11:59, 23 April 2025 (UTC)
:The convention on wikipedia categorization is Somalian, which is why I moved it. You're welcome to propose a rename. SMasonGarrison 23:17, 23 April 2025 (UTC)
::If you check the existing categories, you will see that there are far more categories named Somali than Somalian. First, move the category back to where it was originally, and then you should propose a name change. Freetrashbox (talk) 11:59, 24 April 2025 (UTC)
:::I did check. But in the future, what I'll do is raise my threshold for what is considered controversial. My point of suggesting that you propose a rename was that if you want to make the naming consistent, you can propose a renaming all the categories to Somali. SMasonGarrison 12:28, 24 April 2025 (UTC)
::::There are some inconsistencies in the category names, but simply changing Somalian to Somali is not the solution. Somalian and Somali are different words. At least, that is how some people interpret them. Freetrashbox (talk) 13:07, 24 April 2025 (UTC)
:::::A CFD would still be useful given the concerns you have raised. SMasonGarrison 13:09, 24 April 2025 (UTC)
::::::I will consider submitting to CfD. I recommend that you thoroughly research unfamiliar topics before editing them, and that you undo your edits if you are notified of any problems. Freetrashbox (talk) 22:51, 25 April 2025 (UTC)

- Following an RfC, administrator elections were permanently authorized on a five-month schedule. The next election will be scheduled soon; see Wikipedia talk:Administrator elections for more information. This is an alternate process to the RfA process and does not replace the latter.
- An RfC was closed with consensus to allow editors to opt-out of seeing "sticky decorative elements". Such elements should now be wrapped in {{t|sticky decoration wrapper}}. Editors who wish to opt out can follow the instructions at WP:STICKYDECO.
- An RfC has resulted in a broad prohibition on the use of AI-generated images in articles. A few common-sense exceptions are recognized.
File:Info Simple bw.svg Miscellaneous
- A New Pages Patrol backlog drive is happening in May 2025 to reduce the backlog of articles in the new pages feed. Sign up here to participate!
