guiverc | sem what is the page? | 00:05 |
---|---|---|
sem | Can I dm you | 00:06 |
guiverc | (if you're logged, the page should be editable.. you need wiki-editors permissions on your launchpad id) | 00:06 |
sem | I can log in to launchpad. Maybe I don't have that permission any more | 00:07 |
guiverc | i can look at page if you DM me... but I may require you to give details on public/recorded site before I'll do anything | 00:07 |
sem | Ok sent you a dm | 00:07 |
guiverc | can you provide your launchpad page here please | 00:09 |
sem | Sure, one sec | 00:10 |
* guiverc was hoping for an email or something which I could request you email me (so as to confirm it's your page)... I see little on page that is identifying except name... (some generic history) | 00:10 | |
sem | https://launchpad.net/~semitones | 00:10 |
sem | It's mainly my name, location, and birth year that I regret putting there | 00:11 |
guiverc | I'll delete the page... but I'm trying to think of a way you can confirm that page is yours, currently I can't see any being my problem | 00:12 |
sem | I can email you from the email listed on my launchpad page if you'd like | 00:12 |
guiverc | that would be appreciated.. guiverc@ubuntu.com will do. | 00:13 |
sem | sent | 00:14 |
guiverc | nothing on that email indicates it was sent from launchpad (was it sent from your launchpad page? or mine (ie. https://launchpad.net/~guiverc & contact_this_user option) email just contains a gmail ID that doesn't prove page is yours | 00:16 |
guiverc | ie. if i sent myself something I get "This message was sent from Launchpad by Chris Guiver (https://launchpad.net/~guiverc)" thus I'd have confirmation the page was sent from my ID | 00:17 |
sem | I didn't know you could send email through launchpad - I just sent it from my email that I use to login to launchpad | 00:18 |
sem | I just edited my user page to remove the link - perhaps that could be proof? | 00:18 |
guiverc | (you may have had to visit my page to see the contact-this-user option...) but ... | 00:19 |
guiverc | I'll accept what you've done as proof you're https://launchpad.net/~semitones and thus click to delete page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PatrickH | 00:20 |
sem | Thank you :) | 00:20 |
guiverc | delete reason used is "requested delete from https://launchpad.net/~semitones via IRC (#ubuntu-doc)" | 00:21 |
guiverc | i'd give it a few secs & try again (You may want to use private/incognito etc to ensure your cache isn't using the prior view etc) | 00:21 |
sem | I appreciate it, thanks | 00:21 |
guiverc | by try again was meant to be viewing your (prior) wiki page | 00:22 |
sem | It shows as deleted for me | 00:23 |
guiverc | you're most welcome sem | 00:24 |
sem | thanks again, have a good one | 00:25 |
guiverc | (wiki editor access requirement was added a number of years ago due to spamming stuff being added to wiki..) | 00:25 |
sem | Ouch | 00:25 |
sem | It really was a golden age back before then :) | 00:25 |
guiverc | and I see (now) you sent an email confirming via lp too, thanks ! | 00:26 |
sem | Yeah thanks for pointing out that feature. I had never seen it before | 00:26 |
guiverc | mostly I want a reason to cover why I deleted a page (in the record)... beyond just confirming its the creator/owner that requested the page deletion | 00:28 |
sem | Ok, how about this | 00:28 |
sem | I was uncomfortable with the personal details in there | 00:29 |
guiverc | sorry, by "want a reason" I should have used past-tense.. you provided WHAT I NEEDED already | 00:29 |
sem | Ok, I understand :) | 00:29 |
guiverc | sem, i took your request as a delete... are/were you happy with that... you can request editor.access to wiki (it's not fast though).. which is this group https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-wiki-editors | 00:54 |
sem | yes, thank you -- I will request editor access as well in case I can become more active on the wiki | 00:55 |
guiverc | (sorry if you wanted to edit.. I would have done that too on request; for some reason I focused attention to delete part of your initial request) | 00:55 |
sem | I actually preferred deleting | 00:56 |
sem | sorry I was not more clear -- I just wasn't sure if wiki pages could be deleted as easily as they could be edited/renamed, etc., | 00:56 |
sem | elsewhere on the wiki it strongly discourages deleting pages -- but that must apply to actual documentation | 00:57 |
