Request for page semi protection

Hi there, Meta community, we have launched a bilingual campaign (Spanish and Portuguese), and have been facing vandalism on its pages (like here, here, here and more). @Rodelar has requested semi protection for the pages in Spanish and we would like to ask the same for the pages in Portuguese (which is a translation from the source in Spanish). What's the procedure for that, please? Thank you, Contaminadas (talk) 13:23, 7 March 2024 (UTC)

Due to persistent vandalism, I've semi-protected the campaign page for translations through this abuse filter. To my fellow admins: feel free to edit the filter as you feel appropriate. — Elton (talk) 02:03, 10 March 2024 (UTC)

Request for Organizer Rights: Elisabeth Carrera (WMNO)

Username: Elisabeth Carrera (WMNO)

Reason for Request: Wikimedia Norge is about to replace the event schedule plugin at our website wikimedia.no. So, this is a good time to look at how we can potentially use the new Event Registration tool. We will also be looking at how we can make better use of Dashboards and stats functions at the monthly contest on Wikipedia in Norwegian Bokmål (example: no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Konkurranser/Månedens_konkurranse_2024-03). We want to make different tools work together seamlessly, or perhaps we can do away with sign-ups in Google Forms and some of the other tools we currently use? We want to improve our event workflow and our end-user experiences.

Criteria Met:

  • No active blocks: I confirm that I have no blocks.
  • Global edits: 1620. My number of edits is low, but I will be working alongside @Jon Harald Søby (WMNO) .
  • Additional Criteria: Affiliate staff (ED of Wikimedia Norge)

•⁠ ⁠Buki 01 (talk • contribs • block • xwiki-contribs • xwiki-date (alt) • CA • ST • lwcheckuser) Hello, this is to notify the community that I would like to request a global lock for my secondary user account Buki 01, which was created with my work mail (Code for Africa Wikipedian Alliance) while creating a pre-recorded video to provide new participants with a step-by-step guide on how to register for the event using the event registration tool. I do not intend to use multiple accounts. -- ~~ Bukky658 (talk) 14:23, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

@Bukky658 you can request global locks at SRG. This is a page for local actions on meta. TenWhile6 (talk | SWMT) 14:46, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

On huwiki, FoBe blocked the range I belong to for a year for vandalism. Yes, A YEAR. I tried to establish diplomacy, but equally corrupt Bináris removed my talk page access.

That means a year of no people editing from this range. Please restore talk page access, reduce the duration of the block to three months and remove admin rights from both FoBe and Bináris. 2A01:36D:1200:4955:5C53:3202:6FCC:A4B9 09:12, 19 March 2024 (UTC)

Set filter 131 to just disallow and tag?

I noticed that filter 131 is set to warn, and then disallow+tag the attempted edit(s), but do we need it to warn first then disallow? My suggestion is to remove the warning because the reason is about one or the other (disallow+tag). Thanks. Codename Noreste 🤔 talk 18:41, 4 March 2024 (UTC)

The warning provides information on how to report a false positive, so may be useful. — xaosflux Talk 18:48, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
Should that not be done by the disallow template? Leaderboard (talk) 20:38, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
I agree. For example, say in the English Wikibooks, a user blanks a page in the mainspace, and they see a warning about this action being unconstructive (that they may submit it again if appropriate), and when they do that action again, they are prevented from doing so.
In addition, some wikis do not have a link for reporting false positives in the abusefilter-warning and disallowed interface pages that they use. Codename Noreste 🤔 talk 21:34, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
@Codename Noreste: on en.wikibooks, the disallow template (wikibooks:MediaWiki:abusefilter-disallowed) explicitly tells users what to do (and we try not to have warning + disallow filters) Leaderboard (talk) 17:12, 13 March 2024 (UTC)

Close button in CN banners

Hi,

I think someone deleted the close icon we use in several CN banners. This was hosted on the foundation wiki, and can be replaced by the one on Commons, but before I have figured out in which currently running banners this icon is used (I'll have to go through the source scripts in the banners, I think?) maybe a steward can change the dead link into a redirect? Ciell (talk) 11:19, 27 March 2024 (UTC)

I tried, but I can't do it without local admin permissions. @GVarnum-WMF could you undo your deletion [4]? Johannnes89 (talk) 11:36, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
Thanks Johannes89. I think I have replaced it in the banners that are currently live. Ciell (talk) 11:40, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
@Ciell & @Johannnes89: Apologies - there were so many old CN files on that wiki - I am surprised to see that one was still in use. I have gone ahead and undeleted, but can delete again if/once the links are updated to the Commons location. Thank you both for your quick efforts! --Gregory Varnum (Wikimedia Foundation) [he/him] (talk) 11:44, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
Thanks @Gregory!
For returning CN banner campaigns we sometimes build on the previous years' banners to design the next one, so I am not sure we can prevent this from happening again without changing the scripts that were used in the last ~2 years. Would it be a problem to keep the image on foundation wiki? If yes, we might want to go through the scripts by bot and make sure the change is addressed. Ciell (talk) 11:53, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
@Ciell: Not a problem at all to keep the image. We are trying to clean up that wiki, but not to the extent of creating more work elsewhere. I will mark it and reference this conversation so we know to keep it in the future. If you encounter any other missing images - please let me know. Thank you! --Gregory Varnum (Wikimedia Foundation) [he/him] (talk) 12:07, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
That would be great, thanks Gregory! Ciell (talk) 12:24, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
@Ciell: I have gone ahead and added a message. I am going to be moving some files from that wiki to Commons (which I do not think will impact CNs), but otherwise done cleaning up files on that wiki. Feel free to ping me if you notice any other issues. Thank you! --Gregory Varnum (Wikimedia Foundation) [he/him] (talk) 12:29, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
