Goodies, tips, and tricks Put Babel boxes on your user page so others know what languages you can speak and indicate your graphic abilities. You can find the files you have uploaded in your Uploads. Please sign your name on Talk pages by typing ~~~~. To link to an image page without embedding the image, type: [[:File:Foo.jpg]], which produces: File:Foo.jpg. You may enable gadgets (custom features) for your account. There are several tools to upload files. Have you edited Wikipedia before? This guide might be useful. Made a mistake? Do you want to have a file renamed or moved? Use the move link and wait for an authorized user to rename it. Do you want to have your recently uploaded picture removed? Tag it as {{speedy|reason here}}. For more information read the deletion guidelines.

E-mail

I sent you an e-mail. Could you please respond?--The Devil's Advocate (talk) 18:01, 15 April 2017 (UTC)

Hi The Devil's Advocate! Sorry for the extreme delay with getting back to you. I've been busy in real life lately and haven't been active until now. I responded to your email. ~Oshwah~ ^{(talk) (contribs)} 00:27, 18 April 2017 (UTC)

Just sent a response.--The Devil's Advocate (talk) 03:32, 18 April 2017 (UTC)

Sent you an e-mail a bit ago looking for an update.--The Devil's Advocate (talk) 20:09, 30 April 2017 (UTC)

Left another e-mail.--The Devil's Advocate (talk) 17:53, 9 May 2017 (UTC)

The Devil's Advocate - Just checking in - did your email get resolved. I'm sorry for such a long delay checking in - just wanted to be sure. ~Oshwah~ ^{(talk) (contribs)} 15:31, 29 November 2017 (UTC)

I don't think it is really resolved, but the issue has become stale at this point and there aren't any recent issues from what I can see.--The Devil's Advocate (talk) 00:36, 30 November 2017 (UTC)

The Devil's Advocate - Okay, just making sure. ~Oshwah~ ^{(talk) (contribs)} 00:40, 30 November 2017 (UTC)

Target 🎯

You're currently being targeted by a vandal, though usually this user targets images of you and adds Russian profanity to them, I'm not sure if you want your pictures protected or not so I will be directing this to you and not the AN/B&P, maybe you think that this is minor and protecting those pages would be "an extreme measure", I'm just checking with you first if you want those pages protected from that vandal or not. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 16:13, 23 May 2018 (UTC)

Donald Trung - I know that it's been just shy of two years since you left me this message, but I'd rather respond two years too late than not respond at all. Sorry I missed this message from you so long ago. Next time, just do what you feel is the right thing to do - I trust your judgment. ;-) Trolls and vandals are like a nest of angry bees: If start to flail my arms around while yelling, "omg protect this picture I uploaded", "oh no we have to protect that picture of me", and so on - it just encourages them to keep up what they're doing because they believe that it's getting a reaction out of me. If you don't give them that food they desire, they'll get bored of it and move on... :-) ~Oshwah~ ^{(talk) (contribs)} 11:39, 13 May 2020 (UTC)

Block

@Oshwah: Oshwah this is important, I know i am blocked on en wikipedia but i have to tell you something. I was looking through your archives and there is a user named QUEENBEE12345 on en wikipedia and the user has typed to you if you messaged her. Well i've been looking through her contributions and she never built the en wikipedia. So can you please block her? And if you don't block her, somebody has to suppress her edits because she said that she is a child in 6th grade. So can you please block her? Thanks. P.S, She's treating Wikipedia like Youtube. --ILoveCocomelon(And Kaomojiǃ) _{(ﾉ≧∀≦)ﾉ} 16:06, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

@Oshwah: Oshwah, this is important please answer. --ILoveCocomelon(And Kaomojiǃ) _{(ﾉ≧∀≦)ﾉ} 13:43, 8 December 2020 (UTC)

Hi ILoveCocomelon! Thank you for the wishes! I hope you're doing well and that you're staying safe. :-) ~Oshwah~ ^{(talk) (contribs)} 06:00, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

User pages

I thought that user pages are always protected against new editors attempting to vandalise as set on the English wiki (seen here). I'd noticed today that my Commons user page had been deleted three times. One of which dated back to 2020, purportedly created by the user My Royal Young and the later two I have no idea but it may be another regular LTA, possibly Mike Matthews17, that I sometimes mention back at English wiki. Iggy the Swan (talk) 13:42, 1 July 2021 (UTC)

Iggy the Swan - That's an "English Wikipedia" thing that's done with an edit filter. It's not a global rule. :-) ~Oshwah~ ^{(talk) (contribs)} 22:40, 2 July 2021 (UTC)

It's a good thing your user page is edit protected, mine is now, thankfully, create protected so that this sort of vandal creation does not happen to me again. The English Wikipedia seems to be a popular target for anyone who can edit so I bet that's why the edit filters exist. Iggy the Swan (talk) 08:29, 3 July 2021 (UTC)

Iggy the Swan - I agree. ~Oshwah~ ^{(talk) (contribs)} 09:32, 3 July 2021 (UTC)
