- I specialize in bot work and tools, but I lurk around RfPP, AfD, AIV, and AN/I, as well as RfA. If you have any questions in those areas, please feel free to ask. :-)
- I also serve as a mailing list moderator and account creator over at the Account Creation Center. If you have any questions regarding an account I created for you, or the process itself, feel free to email the WP:ACC team or me personally.

April Fools stuff
Hey. 1) your user talk is extremely hard to read, could you please not tilt it? Thanks. 2) do you know what's going on with User:Shevonsilva, User:Shevonsilva/Layout, and User:Shevonsilva/StatndardLayout? They all have your "no permission given" G7 template (which is also IMO an improper use of the G7 tag, not to mention a severe violation of AGF). I think it's because they don't have an if check for User:Cyberpower678/SaH being "AprilFoolsStandard"? ansh666 06:42, 1 April 2019 (UTC)
- I get not disrupting anything with April Fools stuff when it comes to our readers, but I am perfectly allowed to mess with my own user space during April Fools. Just let it rotate back on its own. I've had issues with impersonation in the past, and my user pages would get duplicated or transcluded without me knowing about it. So I implemented a copy-protection against that. I don't mind users using my layout, but I do mind being outright copied.--Cyberpower Chat|List of good deeds 14:07, 1 April 2019 (UTC)
- In regards to the first, see my reply on AN. To the second, that still doesn't give you the right to slap an unremovable G7 tag on it. That criteria doesn't even apply - you didn't create the pages - and it assumes that users are trying to copy in bad faith, which isn't really true (they could, for example, have wanted to modify it for their own use, but never got around to it). A proper course of action would be to ask anyone copying in good faith to either remove it or change it, not to just mark it for deletion. Of course, impersonators and such can be dealt with easily. ansh666 17:19, 1 April 2019 (UTC)
- This was how it was dealt with easily, in the past. It hasn't been a problem since then and I simply forgot about it until recently. I have no objections to them using my layout, I will happily provide them the code to do it. It's meant strictly to ward off impersonation.Cyber : Chat 17:24, 1 April 2019 (UTC)
- Well, in this case, it very clearly didn't work. Either way, I won't bother you any more, happy April 1st. ansh666 17:48, 1 April 2019 (UTC)
- Maybe, maybe not. Not sure what this user was doing by literally copying everything out of user space, and not bothering to point the templates to their new homes, but if they want to use my styles, I will be more than happy to make it available to them. :-) Cp678 (T•C•G•E) 17:59, 1 April 2019 (UTC)

- Thank you User:Cyberpower678. You can also develop a opensource wiki front end styling framework too. Your scripts made my page looks better. Thanks. :) Shevonsilva (talk) 00:52, 5 April 2019 (UTC)
- Shevonsilva, I removed a bunch of stuff from your recreated layout as it's not needed, and wasn't working anyways, but if you do want it, I can help you with that. But right now it's much simpler to manage now.—CYBERPOWER (Around) 11:31, 6 April 2019 (UTC)

This is probably A stupid question, but...
How do you get your sig to change every time? Are you doing it manually, or is there some markup thats allowing you to do it?💵Money💵emoji💵💸 23:53, 2 April 2019 (UTC)
- @Money emoji: (talk page stalker) see User:Cyberpower678/SignatureColorKey, User:Cyberpower678/SignatureStandard, and User:Cyberpower678/Signature for the behind-the-scenes functionality. My guess is the have set their preferences so that
~~~~
substitutes their current signature. --DannyS712 (talk) 00:41, 3 April 2019 (UTC)- @Money emoji: I remember seeing this at WP:UPDC, there was a setup guide if I am not wrong. 125.63.125.19 (talk) 15:15, 5 April 2019 (UTC)
- Well actually I built my signature completely independent of any help. What exactly are you looking to do?—CYBERPOWER (Chat) 15:17, 5 April 2019 (UTC)
- I want to know how you got your sig to change with post on April fools. Did you do that manually, or did you have sort of script?💵Money💵emoji💵💸 15:45, 5 April 2019 (UTC)
- The template randomly substitutes one of my April fools sigs automatically. See User:Cyberpower678/SignatureAprilFools.—CYBERPOWER (Chat) 18:08, 5 April 2019 (UTC)

Duplikate archive link
Why your bot added link? It's mistake! 83.219.146.115 (talk) 09:31, 6 April 2019 (UTC)
- [1]. 83.219.146.115 (talk) 09:32, 6 April 2019 (UTC)
- You're right. That's definitely a bug. One that should be fixed though.—CYBERPOWER (Around) 11:36, 6 April 2019 (UTC)
