Problems
 * InternetArchiveBot helps saving online sources on some wikis. It adds them to Wayback Machine and links to them there. This is so they don't disappear if the page that was linked to is removed. It currently has a problem with linking to the wrong date when it moves pages from  to.

Changes later this week
 * The tool to find, add and remove templates will be updated. This is to make it easier to find and use the right templates. It will come to the first wikis on 7 July. It will come to more wikis later this year.

Future changes
 * Some Wikimedia wikis use Flagged Revisions or pending changes. It hides edits from new and unregistered accounts for readers until they have been patrolled. The auto review action in Flagged Revisions will no longer be logged. All old logs of auto-review will be removed. This is because it creates a lot of logs that are not very useful.

Recent changes
 * Octicons-tools.svg If your wiki uses markup like  or  without the required  attribute, then these will no longer work in 2 weeks. There is a short-term fix that can be added to your local wiki's Common.css page, which is explained at T287701. From now on, all usages should include the full attributes, for example:  or  . This also applies to some other HTML tags, such as  or  . You can find existing examples on your wiki that need to be updated, using the instructions at T287701.
 * Reminder: Wikimedia has migrated to the Libera Chat IRC network, from the old Freenode network. Local documentation should be updated.

Problems
 * Last week, all wikis had slow access or no access for 30 minutes. There was a problem with generating dynamic lists of articles on the Russian Wikinews, due to the bulk import of 200,000+ new articles over 3 days, which led to database problems. The problematic feature has been disabled on that wiki and developers are discussing if it can be fixed properly.

Changes later this week
 * When adding links to a page using VisualEditor or the 2017 wikitext editor, disambiguation pages will now only appear at the bottom of search results. This is because users do not often want to link to disambiguation pages.
 * Octicons-sync.svg The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from . It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from . It will be on all wikis from (calendar).

They are looking for users who want to test the plans. Any editor who has an Android phone and is willing to download the app can do this.
 * The Beta Feature for will be updated in the coming weeks.  You will be able to subscribe to individual sections on a talk page at more wikis.  You can test this now by adding   to the end of the talk page's URL (example).

Mentorship
Hey, would it be possible for you to become my mentor? :) I found you on the Adopt-a-user page. I've already collected some experience in areas like the german Wikipedia, Liquipedia, the Jedipedia and the Wookieepedia, but now I also want to edit some things here, with a focus on Lists of movies by their studios as that is a natural interest of me. However, I could definitely use some help in certain areas to find my place here. CanePlayz (Jacob) (talk) 20:42, 5 August 2021 (UTC)


 * Hey, ! I received your messages on Twitter and will be reaching out shortly. I haven't had the honor of adopting another user yet, so this may be a bit of a learning experience for both of us, but I'm confident it'll go well. We'll probably start by going over some of the basics of contributing, and then we can explore some other areas of Wikipedia to see if anything else piques your interest.

How to get the page public
Hi Bsoyka,

Thank you for offering your help to the vast internet. I just started a page for an artist that has been overlooked for many years： Lalan (artist). After my page got approved, I am still not able to find the Wikipedia page of her online. Can you please help me?

Many thanks--1991taikwun2021Kfh2021 03:45, 10 August 2021 (UTC)


 * What do you mean by saying you can't find it online?  Bsoyka  ( talk &middot;  contribs ) 03:58, 18 August 2021 (UTC)

Phil Solem - Rembrandts
Hi Ben,

Thank you so much for your response about wanting to ad a Page for Phil Solem of the pop duo, The Rembrandts. I just have a few questions/clarifications. I know you are not an admin, and just a volunteer, so the information below is just for background so you can tell me the best way to proceed.

My relationship to the band is I am a close friend of the two principals, Danny Wilde and Phil Solem, and I've written songs with them, a couple of my songs are on a Rembrandts album, and more of my songs are on Phil's solo efforts, so I for sure have a conflict of interest!!! I understand that.

I am not being paid to do anything for them now, I run their Facebook page but I do that for fun. I have never been paid by the Rembrandts to do anything. However, I have earned royalties for the songs I've co-written with them through ASCAP.

I feel Phil should for sure have a page. He is not just a 'band member'. The Rembrandts are a duo, not a band, and Phil is 1/2 of that duo. Danny has a page and so should Phil! They both co-wrote and recorded one of the most popular songs ever recorded (The Theme from Friends - I'll Be There For You) as well as several other charting singles and albums, and songs that have been in big-budget Hollywood movies (Dumb and Dumber, to name one) and they also did the theme song to the children's show, Thundercats. I don't see how Phil doesn't deserve to have a page!

It seems like I should be able to be consideres a reliable source, although I don't really know what that means technically. I pretty much know everything about the band and the guys as artists and as people.

I want to be 100% on the up and up, and I'd like to contribute to Wiki for other things as well. My intention is to only offer factual information, and contribute to Wiki.

So where do I go from here? My first concern is to get a page up for Phil. I can provide all of his biographical info, as well as his professional accomplishments. His career extends beyond just what he has done as part of the Rembrandts. For example, he has played and recorded with Dwight Yoakam, Peter Noone (Herman's Hermits), and David Palmer (of Addicted To Love Fame) just to name a few.

Any advice you can give me would be much appreciated. I want to do this right. Best

 * You seem to have a pretty big WP:COI, so I'd advise you to stay away from directly contributing to any articles on the topic. The COI page has more info on why.You could, however, try writing the article through the WP:AfC process, where someone would review your draft before making it into a real article. Keep in mind that, no matter what you do, you'll need other sources to back you up on everything, and those can't really include you unfortunately.

Looking for an Experienced Wikipedia Editor to adopt me
Hi, I am new to Wikipedia and looking for assistance to update a sports page for my Niece Danielle Dorris. A Canadian Paralympic Swimming Athlete, currently competing in Tokyo. Cheryl S-Lee (talk) 18:11, 1 September 2021 (UTC)


 * Put simply, please don't. You have a COI and are strongly discouraged from editing articles like that for a plethora of reasons. See WP:PSCOI for a simplified explanation. However, I'd be happy to adopt you and take you through my class — let me know your thoughts!  Bsoyka  ( talk &middot;  contribs ) 23:07, 1 September 2021 (UTC)

Recent changes
 * The wikis that have Growth features deployed have been part of A/B testing since deployment, in which some newcomers did not receive the new features. Now, all of the newcomers on 21 of the smallest of those wikis will be receiving the features.

Changes later this week
 * There is no new MediaWiki version this week.

Future changes
 * Octicons-tools.svg In 2017, the provided jQuery library was upgraded from version 1 to 3, with a compatibility layer. The migration will soon finish, to make the site load faster for everyone. If you maintain a gadget or user script, check if you have any JQMIGRATE errors and fix them, or they will break.
 * Last year, the Portuguese Wikipedia community embarked on an experiment to make log-in compulsory for editing.  The impact report of this trial is ready. Moving forward, the Anti-Harassment Tools team is looking for projects that are willing to experiment with restricting IP editing on their wiki for a short-term experiment. Learn more.

Speedy deletion nomination of Sticker Mule


A tag has been placed on Sticker Mule requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a company, corporation or organization that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the.  scope_creep Talk  20:15, 18 September 2021 (UTC)

Recent changes
 * Growth features are now deployed to almost all Wikipedias. For the majority of small Wikipedias, the features are only available for experienced users, to test the features and configure them. Features will be available for newcomers starting on 20 September 2021.
 * MediaWiki had a feature that would highlight local links to short articles in a different style. Each user could pick the size at which "stubs" would be highlighted. This feature was very bad for performance, and following a consultation, has been removed.
 * A technical change was made to the MonoBook skin to allow for easier maintenance and upkeep. This has resulted in some minor changes to HTML that make MonoBook's HTML consistent with other skins. Efforts have been made to minimize the impact on editors, but please ping Jon (WMF) on wiki or in phabricator if any problems are reported.

Problems
 * There was a problem with search last week. Many search requests did not work for 2 hours because of an accidental restart of the search servers.

Changes later this week
 * Octicons-sync.svg The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from . It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from . It will be on all wikis from (calendar).
 * Octicons-tools.svg The meta=proofreadpage API has changed. The <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"> parameter has been renamed to <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"> . API users should update their code to avoid unrecognized parameter warnings. Pywikibot users should upgrade to 6.6.0.

Future changes
 * The Reply tool will be deployed to the remaining wikis in the coming weeks. It is currently part of "" in Beta features at most wikis. You will be able to turn it off in Editing Preferences.
 * Octicons-tools.svg The previously announced change to how you obtain tokens from the API has been delayed to September 21 because of an incompatibility with Pywikibot. Bot operators using Pywikibot can follow T291202 for progress on a fix, and should plan to upgrade to 6.6.1 when it is released.

Proposed deletion of Ric Elias


The article Ric Elias has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "BLP with refs that are announcements and PR."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.  scope_creep Talk  19:59, 17 September 2021 (UTC)


 * Hey, ! Would you mind elaborating a bit on this one? As far as I can tell, the article isn't really based on announcements/PR. Although, there's probably a borderline notability concern here, but that's a separate concern it seems. Thanks!  Bsoyka  ( talk &middot;  contribs ) 02:34, 21 September 2021 (UTC)


 * The first ref is primary and can't be used to establish notabilty, the 2nd is primary and third one Ric Elias woke up in the middle of the night. His gut churned and his mind raced. is straight up PR.   scope_creep Talk  07:27, 21 September 2021 (UTC)

Recent changes
 * iOS 15 has a new function called Private Relay (Apple website). This can hide the user's IP when they use Safari browser. This is like using a VPN in that we see another IP address instead. It is opt-in and only for those who pay extra for iCloud. It will come to Safari users on OSX later. There is a technical discussion about what this means for the Wikimedia wikis.

Problems
 * Octicons-tools.svg Some gadgets and user-scripts add items to the portlets (article tools) part of the skin. A recent change to the HTML may have made those links a different font-size. This can be fixed by adding the CSS class <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr">.

Changes later this week
 * Octicons-sync.svg The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from . It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from . It will be on all wikis from (calendar).
 * The GettingStarted extension was built in 2013, and provides an onboarding process for new account holders in a few versions of Wikipedia. However, the recently developed Growth features provide a better onboarding experience. Since the vast majority of Wikipedias now have access to the Growth features, GettingStarted will be deactivated starting on 4 October.
 * A small number of users will not be able to connect to the Wikimedia wikis after 30 September. This is because an old root certificate will no longer work. They will also have problems with many other websites. Users who have updated their software in the last five years are unlikely to have problems. Users in Europe, Africa and Asia are less likely to have immediate problems even if their software is too old. You can read more.
 * You can receive notifications when someone leaves a comment on user talk page or mentions you in a talk page comment. Clicking the notification link will now bring you to the comment and highlight it. Previously, doing so brought you to the top of the section that contained the comment. You can find more information in T282029.

Future changes
 * The Reply tool will be deployed to the remaining wikis in the coming weeks. It is currently part of "" in Beta features at most wikis. You will be able to turn it off in Editing Preferences. See the list of wikis.
