TS and task repeat
Hey Stwalkerster, I'm just wondering on TS (with the new system) how you set programs to automatically restart (like 24-7 items) and start every x number of minutes. I've tried to do it and still can't get it to work. Ideas? -- DQ (t) (e) 01:49, 7 April 2011 (UTC)

I was reading the HD post, and was wondering if only admin trickery could do that, or can us with Wikipedia:File mover do it also? CTJF83 23:15, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
- Not keeping up with the new groups and that, any user who has the movefile, delete, deletedhistory, deletedtext, and undelete permissions assigned to a group they're a member of can do it. [stwalkerster|talk] 23:55, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
- ...and, FYI, I've not actually read the HD post - it was brought to my attention on IRC by Chzz, so I dealt with it :P [stwalkerster|talk] 23:56, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
- Ok, thanks, CTJF83 00:02, 23 April 2011 (UTC)

Re:My request
My apologies for not being more specific. Basically, the subject may or may not be the subject of a so-called superinjunction banning the media from publishing details of aspects of her private life. There are several of these orders in place presently, and certain quarters of the web are attempting to guess who the orders concern. This has spread to Wikipedia. If you have oversight privileges, you can check the article's history for details, and you'll see that a user made similar edits to other articles. I'll post the request again, but don't really want to add much detail for obvious reasons. Cheers. TheRetroGuy (talk) 21:18, 27 April 2011 (UTC)
- If it's for the attention of oversight, then you're better contacting oversight, not general admins like myself. You can go into detail about it in the email to the oversight folk, but it definitely doesn't meet any revdel stuff that I can see - it might meet oversight stuff if you explain why.

- I'm not actually set up to send emails just now as I don't want my main account to be made public, and I'm not sure how to create additional accounts. I might look into creating a second email address for the purposes of Wikipedia though as it would probably be useful. As I've said on the talk page, I might just be being over cautious about it. It's just the fact that someone's mentioned the word superinjunction, and if it is true that she is the subject of one, I'm just trying to head off any repercussions.
