Speedy delete

Hi there. Could someone please delete CNBanner:WFHR2022-text1/skr-arab and CNBanner:WFHR2022-text2/skr-arab? I tagged them a week ago, but nobody's deleted them (probably because they aren't showing up in Category:Deleteme for some reason). Thanks. Tol (talk | contribs) @ 00:35, 7 May 2022 (UTC)

Wiki mail spam protection

Being on the team organizing the events around the International Museum Day I wanted to inform the people registered to attend der online meeting Volunteer Supporters Network/Wikidata for beginners on Monday, May 9, via mail about the details (address of the meeting etc.). It worked for about 20 or 25 of them, now I get the message "As an anti-abuse measure, you are limited from performing this action too many times in a short space of time, and you have exceeded this limit. Please try again in a few minutes". How long will this block be activated? I'd need to send three more wiki mails. --Manfred Werner (WMAT) (talk) 16:54, 8 May 2022 (UTC)

This is a One-day limit. 𝐖𝐢𝐤𝐢𝐁𝐚𝐲𝐞𝐫 👤💬 17:01, 8 May 2022 (UTC)
Thank you. One day in the sense of 24 hours or until 12 pm? The workshop is tomorrow. I'd have to find another way to get the info to the attandees. --Manfred Werner (WMAT) (talk) 17:50, 8 May 2022 (UTC)
Or is it possible to lift the block for me at least for today? That would be very helpful. --Manfred Werner (WMAT) (talk) 17:54, 8 May 2022 (UTC)

Thank you, but I'd rather avoid mixing up my official account as an employee of Wikimedia Austria with my strictly private one. It could also be confusing for newcomers if I start to explain which of my accounts/identities is reaching out to them. Alternatively I would have asked a colleague to send the mails during the day tomorrow. --Manfred Werner (WMAT) (talk) 20:28, 8 May 2022 (UTC)

Report concerning User:

Ymblanter helps Ellodanis5 flood using a cross wiki. Covers up his violations of Wikipedia rules. Complicity. Secondly, there are no references in the Ellodanis5 articles, which is mandatory, fact checking , the lack of completeness in the pages. As indicated in the community rules, and the second one is engaged in covering for his friend. He sees that his friend violates a lot of rules: too short an article; a category without clear inclusion criteria, cross wiki, flood, and so on... Everything it creates has no encyclopedic content at all. They count on the fact that other users do not understand and do not know the Chuvash language and you can cram any nonsense there. Since no one checks the validity of the facts. This is a criminal group, conspirators. Help solve the problem, issue a warning or block them. They must comply with Wikipedia rules or not have the right to create and edit articles. I ask the administrators to sort out the situation with the occupation of the Chuvash wikipedia by two accomplices who interfere with new users and deliberately displace them by engaging in wars of cancellations and wars of edits, deleting created pages. Please help me find competent people on Wikipedia who will help solve this issue and force these participants to comply with the rules.

There are a lot of such similar pages being created, without content and meaning, half-empty.

they just stuff the quantity and no quality. some words are generally fictional and are absent in the Chuvash language and dictionary, even in the encyclopedia. I'm telling you as the owner of the Chuvash language.

Request for page protection

Hi!

I would like to request that all of the pages in this category be protected to allow edits only by registered users. Thank you! MNadzikiewicz (WMF) (talk)

I don't see any vandalism on any of them. --MF-W 11:31, 6 May 2022 (UTC)
@MF-Warburg, we would like to have them protected just in case. Given that they are devoted to the Board of Trustees elections, no content from non-registered users is expected. MNadzikiewicz (WMF) (talk) 12:14, 6 May 2022 (UTC)
Those are not valid reasons - according to Semi-protection, semi-protection is neither "to prohibit anonymous editing in general" nor "for preemptive protection of articles that might get vandalized". --MF-W 13:21, 6 May 2022 (UTC)
@MF-Warburg, please see this page. MNadzikiewicz (WMF) (talk) 06:34, 16 May 2022 (UTC)

Fawiki block problem

Hello, there is a problem I try to fix weeks ago. The problem is I did put a image to fawiki, wich was than deleted in Commons. I think the uploader did not have permission in Wikimedia Commons and didn't know it (because there was written "Permission is on the way"). I get blocked actually for 7 days, but than I get blocked every week without reason??? (The reason wich is written there: Automatically closed by the editing filter.

Request to send Mass message for campaign

I am Ammar and I am coordinating this year's Wikipedia Pages Wanting Photos campaign.

I would like to request someone with the required permission to please send our mass message for the campaign.

The message is here, and the distribution list is here.

Thanks, – Ammarpad (talk) 09:56, 31 May 2022 (UTC)

Hi @Ammarpad! Just a question, do you expect having to send other messages as well? If that's so, it might be wiser to temporarily add you to the massmessage sender group for the duration of the campaign, so you can do it yourself. If this is an oneoff, happy to send it for you. Let me know. Best, Martin Urbanec (talk) 10:24, 31 May 2022 (UTC)
Thanks @Martin Urbanec:, it's a one-off message. So it's fine to just send it. – Ammarpad (talk) 17:21, 31 May 2022 (UTC)

Help filing RfC for global ban of Midnight68

I was advised to start an RfC about banning a long-term problem user. After spending a lot of time creating the RfC, I was unable to save it because of "abuse 23". When I tried to ask an admin for help, I discovered that my account had been blocked by the abuse filter bot. @Xaosflux: suggested I ask for help here. I was able to save a draft of the RfC in my userspace on English Wikipedia. It would be ideal if someone could start the RfC for me with that draft. Failing that, could someone at least tell me why I am unable to save the RfC so that I can fix it myself? Thanks. B. disruptus (talk) 20:50, 23 May 2022 (UTC)

Note to admins, this was hitting private filter Special:AbuseFilter/214 = which is fairly broad and impacts newer editors. — xaosflux Talk 20:55, 23 May 2022 (UTC)
Probably not related to the abuse filter false positive, but you aren't eligible to file a global ban proposal because you don't have at least 500 edits globally (on all Wikimedia wikis) (from Global bans#Obtaining consensus for a global ban). * Pppery * it has begun 21:19, 23 May 2022 (UTC)

I am concerned that Jusjih (talk · contribs) appears to be making serious allegations of paid editing here. (I will also note that Jusjih is an administrator on this wiki, which is concerning - certainly not the sort of intimidating behavior that I want to see from any admin on any wiki, especially Meta).

I will also say that there are some comments made by other editors there that could use some clerking under the powers given at Requests for comment/Policy. --Rschen7754 05:12, 25 May 2022 (UTC)

I think it would be best to close the RFC altogether, as it is clearly not actionable. Deciding to desysop someone in all projects via a Meta RFC is unprecedented, and there is no support for it anyway in the RFC. As desysopping is a steward action, a steward should probably close it. --MF-W 08:24, 25 May 2022 (UTC)
@Rschen7754 and MF-Warburg: Thanks for speaking out. The RFC is a malicious retaliation by Zhxy 519 who has sabotaged de-sysoping process on Chinese Wikisource thrice with the extreme conflict of interest [2] [3] [4] after having sabotaged the local voting thrice before. [5] [6] [7], with no regard to w:Wikipedia:Don't remind others of past misdeeds. Thus would any steward please close that ridiculous and reckless RFC and to process Steward requests/Permissions#Removal of access to suspend Zhxy 519 from adminship on Chinese Wikisource pending further local actions?--Jusjih (talk) 02:18, 26 May 2022 (UTC)
@Jusjih: You are missing the point, you cannot make serious accusations like "paid editing" without evidence. See w:Wikipedia:Casting aspersions. --Rschen7754 02:24, 26 May 2022 (UTC)
@Rschen7754: I have not directly accused anyone of undeclared paid edits. What is wrong to simply remind unspecified readers about the global policy? Back in September 2021, Zhxy 519 started another abusive RFC to retaliate being considered for de-adminship on Chinese Wikisource, so the conflict of interest editing is in that earlier and the recent abusive RFCs. To ask Zhxy 519 to withdraw the abusive RFC and apologize to the community, I need any disinterested third party.--Jusjih (talk) 01:23, 27 May 2022 (UTC)
The idea that "remind[ing]" people of it is anything other than a veiled, implicit accusation is disingenuous. Your behavior in these disputes has been far from what I would expect from an administrator on Meta-Wiki.
Your communications for years now with Zhxy 519 and other users on this project have not been in line with policy. Aspersions, borderline personal attacks, insinuations of malintent, retaliatory RfCs, etc. I understand that, to a large extent, this is a two-way problem. But you are the Meta-Wiki administrator, partaking in these issues on Meta-Wiki. Please reevaluate the way you go about disputes in line with Meta:Civility, or reconsider your adminship on this project. Vermont 🐿️ (talk) 19:31, 28 May 2022 (UTC)
I'm not "speaking out". I would like to see an RFC to be closed that will be going nowhere, for the reasons I already mentioned. --MF-W 21:58, 27 May 2022 (UTC)
Indeed. I've closed the RfC as unactionable/out of scope. Vermont 🐿️ (talk) 19:43, 28 May 2022 (UTC)

For nearly two months, nobody left a comment on this case, and OP hasn't updated it either.

Could we close this case as inactive? PAVLOV 08:14, 30 May 2022 (UTC)

According to Requests for comment/Policy § Closure of RFCs, no. NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh 11:34, 30 May 2022 (UTC)
That's not really what it says there. But an important question about the request is pending there at the moment anyway. --MF-W 17:28, 30 May 2022 (UTC)

Portal preview gadget

Recently, project portals have been migrating to a new build based on Phabricator/Gerrit (one of the relevant tasks) and therefore the on-wiki maintenance system is about to be killed. I think it's time to deprecate this gadget too, or, at least, make it no longer loaded by default (how can this be a default one right from the beginning?)?
