Letter petitioning WMF to reverse recent decitions edit

The Wikimedia Foundation recently created a new feature, "superprotect" status. The purpose is to prevent pages from being edited by elected administrators -- but permitting WMF staff to edit them. It has been put to use in only one case: to protect the deployment of the Media Viewer software on German Wikipedia, in defiance of a clear decision of that community to disable the feature by default, unless users decide to enable it.

If you oppose these actions, please add your name to this letter. If you know non-Wikimedians who support our vision for the free sharing of knowledge, and would like to add their names to the list, please ask them to sign an identical version of the letter on change.org.

I'm notifying you because you participated in one of several relevant discussions. -Pete F (talk) 22:11, 20 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

Superprotect letter update edit

Hi Jmabel,

Along with more hundreds of others, you recently signed Letter to Wikimedia Foundation: Superprotect and Media Viewer, which I wrote.

Today, we have 562 signatures here on Meta, and another 61 on change.org, for a total of 623 signatures. Volunteers have fully translated it into 16 languages, and begun other translations. This far exceeds my most optimistic hopes about how many might sign the letter -- I would have been pleased to gain 200 siguatures -- but new signatures continue to come.

I believe this is a significant moment for Wikimedia and Wikipedia. Very rarely have I seen large numbers of people from multiple language and project communities speak with a unified voice. As I understand it, we are unified in a desire for the Wikimedia Foundation to respect -- in actions, in addition to words -- the will of the community who has built the Wikimedia projects for the benefit of all humanity. I strongly believe it is possible to innovate and improve our software tools, together with the Wikimedia Foundation. But substantial changes are necessary in order for us to work together smoothly and productively. I believe this letter identifies important actions that will strongly support those changes.

Have you been discussing these issues in your local community? If so, I think we would all appreciate an update (on the letter's talk page) about how those discussions have gone, and what people are saying. If not, please be bold and start a discussoin on your Village Pump, or in any other venue your project uses -- and then leave a summary of what kind of response you get on the letter's talk page.

Finally, what do you think is the right time, and the right way, to deliver this letter? We could set a date, or establish a threshold of signatures. I have some ideas, but am open to suggestions.

Thank you for your engagement on this issue, and please stay in touch. -Pete F (talk) 18:12, 26 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

Wishlist Survey late addition edit

Hi -- You added a proposal to 2015 Community Wishlist Survey/Commons last week, but unfortunately that was after the proposal/endorsement phase. We were inviting people to submit proposals between Nov 9-22. The voting phase started on Nov 30th, and we're not including any new ideas posted after that. I moved your proposal and the votes to Talk:2015 Community Wishlist Survey/Commons.

I'm sorry to take your proposal out, because it's a good idea and it got some support votes, but we want to have clear beginning and endpoints so that we can be fair to everybody. You can see the description of the whole process at Community Tech/Community Wishlist Survey description. Let me know if you have any thoughts. -- DannyH (WMF) (talk) 20:21, 7 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

Oh, sorry -- silly of me. I fixed the link. -- DannyH (WMF) (talk) 21:27, 7 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

Harassment workshop edit

Greetings! You are receiving this message because, at some point in the past, you have participated in a discussion around the topic of harassment. The Support and Safety team is holding a series of consultations gathering feedback on the best potential solutions to the problem. The next stage is a workshop where we hope to narrow the focus to individual actionable ideas and explore how to bring some of these ideas to life.

Best regards, the Support and Safety team via MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 16:35, 17 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

2016 Community Wishlist Survey edit

Hi,

You’re getting this message because you participated in the 2015 Community Wishlist Survey and we want to make sure you don't miss it this year – or at least can make the conscious choice to ignore if it you want to. The 2015 survey decided what the Community Tech team should work on during 2016. It was also the focus of Wikimedia hackathons and work by other developers. You can see the status of wishes from the 2015 wishlist at 2015 Community Wishlist Survey/Results.

The 2016 Community Wishlist Survey is now open for wishes. You can create proposals until November 20. You will be able to vote on which wishes you think are best or most important between November 28 and December 12. /Johan (WMF) (talk) via MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 11:17, 14 November 2016 (UTC)Reply

Abuse filters, Laurynas Didžiulis and Confidenciali edit

It's all quite simple really..

lt:Vikipedija:Forumas#Šalinamas puslapis: Sveiki, Kad ir kaip redaguočiau keliamą informaciją, puslapis visad yra šalinamas ir ištrinamas redaktoriaus, nors atitinka visus reikalavimus.

Translated: Hello, No matter how I edit the information, the page is always removed and deleted by the editor, even though it meets all the requirements.

See lt:Specialus:Sąrašas/Confidenciali, this is about lt:Laurynas Didžiulis. That article was deleted because it didn't meet the notability criteria of ltwiki.

[1] shows Confidenciali attempting to create the page on Commons. The first entry is c:Special:AbuseFilter/120. Confidenciali is a new user (< 3 edits) and namespace 0 is the gallery or main namespace. The new entry did not include "#babel" and the title did not include a slash. (these would be hallmarks of a user simply creating a user page on which a link to YouTube is no problem) It did include a link to YouTube, Tumblr or any of the other listed sites. No wonder, I bet they simply copy-pasted their article about Laurynas Didžiulis to Commons..

The second abuse filter entry is just for trying to create a gallery page without a <gallery> tag, Wikidata list, Wikidata Gallery or Football kit. Obviously, copy-pasted Wikipedia articles contain none of those so that gets blocked.

Laurence Gross (talk · contribs) created the article on ltwiki on 2 April (deleted next day), Confidenciali created the article on 9 April. This may be an alternative account, or they forgot their password and created a new account, or it's a coincidence, or whatever. — Alexis Jazz (ping me) 16:21, 21 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

  • @Alexis Jazz: Why is this on my user page on meta, which I almost never us, instead of in the thread where this was being discussed? Is this an implicit request for me to take the time to edit this into an appropriate response to the user, or what? Is it OK with you if I copy-paste your whole comment into that discussion? - Jmabel (talk) 16:50, 21 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
Technical *cough* difficulties. *clears throat* (awaiting OS)
Copy-paste is OK with me. — Alexis Jazz (ping me) 17:31, 21 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
