| Admins: If you think an admin action I've taken recently is wrong or unhelpful, or one I've taken in the past is no longer useful, go ahead and undo or change it without feeling like you have to talk to me first. An explanation in the edit summary is always helpful, but I trust your judgement. |
Need help and don't know where to find it?

Warning: There is an on-going scam targeting people who would like Wikipedia to have an article about them. See this scam warning for detailed information.

I came across this award reviewing a draft and it appears to be a notable award mentioned in several articles. Thought you might be interested in creating an article. See also es:Gourmand World Cookbook Awards. S0091 (talk) 16:09, 5 February 2024 (UTC)
- Hm, it has an entry in 8 language wikis. Definitely seems worth investigating, thanks! Valereee (talk) 17:37, 6 February 2024 (UTC)

Reminder to participate in Wikipedia research
[edit]Hello,
I recently invited you to take a survey about administration on Wikipedia. If you haven’t yet had a chance, there is still time to participate– we’d truly appreciate your feedback. The survey is anonymous and should take about 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement.
Take the survey here.
Kind Regards,

Question
[edit]Hey valereee, thanks for being supportive on the UM situation. Quick question before I go forward, I'd like to tag some sources I think are questionable on the page there, specifically ones that link to shops that appear to sell bootleg material here. Would going through that be a bit too much? I think it would help for context if I want to bring it up on the talk page. Andrzejbanas (talk) 18:01, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
- Hey, @Andrzejbanas, no thanks necessary, just doing my job. :) I think you could either tag, or tag and if reverted bring it up on the talk page. Either would be completely acceptable. Valereee (talk) 18:17, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
- Cool. :) Just wanted to clarify that tp not be brash or come off as some drive-by tagging or what not. Excellent, I feel so much better being able to confirm stuff before going way to hog wild. I've also thought that to avoid me endlessly adding on in conversations that if editors want a request from me, that they please ping me. I think that would help me with any clarification and not having me swamp your page with monsters of film yore every week or whatever. :D Thoughts? Andrzejbanas (talk) 18:31, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

Tech News: 2024-47
[edit]Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.
Updates for editors
- Users of Wikimedia sites will now be warned when they create a redirect to a page that doesn't exist. This will reduce the number of broken redirects to red links in our projects. [1]
- View all 42 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week. For example, Pywikibot, which automates work on MediaWiki sites, was upgraded to 9.5.0 on Toolforge. [2]
Updates for technical contributors
- On wikis that use the FlaggedRevs extension, pages created or moved by users with the appropriate permissions are marked as flagged automatically. This feature has not been working recently, and changes fixing it should be deployed this week. Thanks to Daniel and Wargo for working on this. [3][4]
In depth
- There is a new Diff post about Temporary Accounts, available in more than 15 languages. Read it to learn about what Temporary Accounts are, their impact on different groups of users, and the plan to introduce the change on all wikis.
Meetings and events
- Technical volunteers can now register for the 2025 Wikimedia Hackathon, which will take place in Istanbul, Turkey. Application for travel and accommodation scholarships is open from November 12 to December 10 2024. The registration for the event will close in mid-April 2025. The Wikimedia Hackathon is an annual gathering that unites the global technical community to collaborate on existing projects and explore new ideas.
