::::Hm, seems SSL worked fine for me after I went to the log in page and clicked “use secure connection”.

Requests for Deletion

  • Added the remaining templates for the Requests for Deletion process. You did it correctly for what I put there, now there are templates and instructions to improve functionality. When you go to create a deletion request, there will be the two fields (page title and reason for deletion) and that is where you can insert that information. I tested a couple of times LPedia:Requests for Deletion?/Testing and LPedia:Requests for Deletion?/Testing 2 and those pages will be deleted, but if you do your own test you can see what the page now generates. I added the other elements to LPedia:Requests for Deletion/Order of the Arrow. AMK152 (talk) 14:31, 25 May 2017 (UTC)

AutoWikiBrowser

Is it okay if I use AutoWikiBrowser on this wiki to start with basic copyediting and formatting maintenance on articles? Also, with regard to the above section about renames, I can help if you want. You do seem to have the correct extension installed to preform account renames. Thanks, Vermont (talk) 23:05, 22 June 2019 (CDT)

Don't you need admin level to use AutoWikiBrowser (which I have used before to good effect)? Also for the renames? I would need to get committee approval, but if you are willing to do the needed maintenance, I am more than willing to do so. You can see I have been pretty busy doing a lot of it solo and need help. I just finished (almost) doing a major category overhaul which was a hot mess. CarynAnnHarlos (talk) 19:57, 23 June 2019 (CDT)
