Sysops, if you are confident that an administrative action I have taken was in error, please feel free to revert it and leave a note on my talk page. If you are not an administrator, please leave a note on my talk page or go to WP:AN if more urgency is required.
Hi, as you closed the move request there, I am attempting to discuss this before opening a full review. I think the article should be split, moved to Seo (Korean surname) and the Japanese part should be moved out to Seo (Japanese surname). It is entire unreasonable to discuss the Japanese surname in the same article when they are not related, the only thing is that they coincidentally have the same spelling in latin letter renditions. They even have widely different pronunciations, Korean Seo is pronounced [so], while Japanese Seo is pronounced [s-e-o]. The names are not related in any ways and thus the article may confuse readers. Therefore nothing really warrants why these two names should be discussed under one article just because of the same Latin spelling...

There seemed to be consensus there that there shouldn't be two separate articles, but who knows maybe opinions have changed. Anyway: feel free to open a new discussion.

Hi, I don't think my message in Talk:Tigray (disambiguation)#Requested move 30 September 2023 was interpreted correctly - this was an argument against the move, and it wasn't addressed or refuted by anyone. Can you revert and relist it instead, please? --Joy (talk) 14:29, 11 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20231011142900","author":"Joy","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Joy-20231011142900-Tigray_move","replies":["c-ErikHaugen-20231011174400-Joy-20231011142900"]}}-->
Ah, I think I did, beg pardon. No, I'm not going to relist it, I think the close probably stands. FF to start another request.

With so little participation in the original round, adding more bureaucracy is not likely to be helpful... --Joy (talk) 12:46, 12 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20231012124600","author":"Joy","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Joy-20231012124600-ErikHaugen-20231011174400","replies":[]}}-->

Hello,
The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Wikipedia, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.
You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.
The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .
Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.
