Hello! Why do you think the author of this genus is Vladimir Svyatoslavovich Lebedev? He is a mammalogist and had no connection with Flatworms. Zorog (talk) 16:45, 16 March 2026 (UTC)

@Zorog: Hi, looking at the page's revision history, it was actually Nytexcome who originally made this error, not Tommy. All Tommy did was change the link from Vladimir S. Lebedev to Vladimir Svyatoslavovich Lebedev, since he had just renamed Vladimir's taxon author page to use his full name. Monster Iestyn (talk) 23:00, 17 March 2026 (UTC)

Yes, you're right. I don't know where Nytexcome got the erroneous middle initial. But Vladimir Svyatoslavovich Lebedev is, firstly, a theriologist, and secondly, he was 14 years old in 1988. Zorog (talk) 07:44, 18 March 2026 (UTC)

Thank you @Zorog for correcting the author name. As @Monster Iestyn mentioned the error was introduced by user Nytexcome when they created the page back in February 2019.

You may be an eligible candidate for the U4C election

Greetings,

The Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee (U4C) seeks candidates for the 2026 election. The U4C is the global committee responsible for overseeing enforcement of the Universal Code of Conduct. Elections are held annually, if elected a committee member serves for two years.

This year the U4C requires candidates to hold administrator rights on at least one wiki, which is why you are being contacted as you appear to hold this right. There are other requirements, such as candidates must be at least 18 years old and may not be employed by the Wikimedia Foundation or other related chapters and affiliates. You can find more information in the call for candidates on Meta-wiki. Additionally, the committee's working language is English; some ability to communicate in English is required.

The election opens on 18 May, if you are eligible and interested you have until 10 May to submit your candidacy. There will be a week in between for candidates to answer questions from the community. Voting takes place privately in SecurePoll, successful candidates must receive at least 60% support. More information is available on the 2026 Elections page, including timelines and other candidacy information. If you read over the material and consider yourself qualified, please consider submitting your name to run for the committee. If you think someone else in your community might be interested and qualified, please encourage them to run.

Tommy,

For your attention, please

Please can you handle this:

Hello, leaving a message here as I saw that you are online. There is a rampant vandal on this site now. Thanks. Jianhui67 (talk) 10:22, 18 July 2026 (UTC)

@PeterR: Thank you for your notice. Their vandal edits have all been reverted by Tanbiruzzaman (who also blocked the username), JavaHurricane, Morkoz and Quinlan83. As a layer of extra security, I've personally also blocked the user's IP address. Hence the problem is most likely solved, at least for now.

For future contact, please do not add your messages to my main user page (as you did here, which I've since moved). Please instead only add your messages directly on my user talk page (=the page you are reading now).

–Best regards, Tommy Kronkvist (talk), 15:47, 18 July 2026 (UTC).
