Administrators' newsletter – September 2023

[edit]

News and updates for administrators from the past month (August 2023).

Guideline and policy news

  • Following an RfC, TFAs will be automatically semi-protected the day before it is on the main page and through the day after.
  • A discussion at WP:VPP about revision deletion and oversight for dead names found that [s]ysops can choose to use revdel if, in their view, it's the right tool for this situation, and they need not default to oversight. But oversight could well be right where there's a particularly high risk to the person. Use your judgment.

Technical news

Arbitration

  • The SmallCat dispute case has closed. As part of the final decision, editors participating in XfD have been reminded to be careful about forming local consensus which may or may not reflect the broader community consensus. Regular closers of XfD forums were also encouraged to note when broader community discussion, or changes to policies and guidelines, would be helpful.

Miscellaneous

  • Tech tip: The "Browse history interactively" banner shown at the top of Special:Diff can be used to easily look through a history, assemble composite diffs, or find out what archive something wound up in.

XFD Voting Tool odd error

[edit]

For a couple of days when I attempt to !vote a get a failure. A small box pops up top right hand corner of the article, with an error that is gone too fast to note. Your thoughts would be appreciated 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 17:18, 8 October 2023 (UTC)

@Timtrent do you know which page this is happening on? Awesome Aasim 17:24, 8 October 2023 (UTC)
So far on any pages where I have tried to offer a!vote or comment. Example is Fela Akinse. Started recently 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 21:22, 8 October 2023 (UTC)
"One of the parameters Title and paged is required" (or very similar wording)
That is the popup error 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 21:31, 8 October 2023 (UTC)
Ahhh! Let me try to fix it! Awesome Aasim 22:36, 8 October 2023 (UTC)
@Timtrent Does it work now? Awesome Aasim 22:42, 8 October 2023 (UTC)
Yes, thank you. 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 06:57, 9 October 2023 (UTC)

Your userpage

[edit]

I have questions concerning your edit:

  1. Shouldn't the section read "That Could Have Been Used" instead of "That Could Have Use"?
  2. How long will the "seven years" going to last?

Signed by 102.159.92.5 (talk) 02:21, 13 October 2023 (UTC)

I don't think it matters too much. Now it is 11 years. I tried to figure out why but couldn't really come up with a good reason, except maybe accessibility. In any case, I think any major icon change should be when redesigning for the future. Codex is going to be a big change for messages and icons. Can't wait for that. Awesome Aasim 02:31, 13 October 2023 (UTC)
awesome Aasim, I realised that you 4got the wp:ORANGELOCK and the wp:BLUELOCK on your userpage. Please add them.197.26.160.169 (talk) 18:44, 16 October 2023 (UTC)

Request for template(s) for split/merge/creation/deletion

[edit]
WP:FORUMSHOPPING? Sorry, but that is not how to find consensus. My suggestion is you use one of the many feedback request services, rather than trying to draw more people into the discussion. Your best bet would be to ask for help at WP:HELPDESK. Closing this, I am sorry if it appears blunt, but if you want to draw more people to a discussion you should just let the templates do their job at notifying people of the discussion. Awesome Aasim 13:41, 17 October 2023 (UTC)

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.


Goodday awesome Aasim. Due to a recent mishap/conflict involving me, in an attempt to propose a template split, which I may understand that I might have missed out several regulations, I had figured out that the best solution is to have (an)other user(s), who "mainly edit tech-related articles", including U, to decide what to do with the below templates.197.14.103.60 (talk) 09:51, 17 October 2023 (UTC)

PS: Do take your time to decide the current status of each template.

The discussion above is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

Look, I will not be responsible after that dispute happened. I am literally handing this responsibility over to you, instead of me. Do whatever you want to do with them. I just do not want any more problems happening to me as I do not have much knowledge about template handling, specifically the LSSR section, as much as you do.197.14.103.60 (talk) 15:00, 17 October 2023 (UTC)

Draft:Proprietariness

[edit]

This is clearly not ready for submission. If you wish to improve the draft, please do so, but do not submit drafts in this state. BD2412 T 18:48, 18 October 2023 (UTC)

I thought I added a tag that puts the draft header... hmm.... Awesome Aasim 18:49, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
Ahhh - So G13 only applies to submitted drafts. ohhh... got it. :D Awesome Aasim 18:50, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
No, G13 applies to all drafts, but this draft was last edited only three months ago, so G13 is not a concern. The tag you added was to submit the draft for review, which would have been a waste of reviewer time in its current state. BD2412 T 19:15, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
Huh? I thought {{subst:afc draft}} brings up the message "draft article currently not submitted". I agree it would be a waste of reviewer time to put "submitted" and let a reviewer decline it. Awesome Aasim 19:18, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
Oh, then the mistake was mine. My apologies, I thought you added the submission template. I have restored your edit. BD2412 T 20:52, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
