 * Follow the discussion about restricting editing of properties to autoconfirmed users.
 * New domain  to be adopted by our Toolforge community. New domain/scheme for Toolforge-hosted webservices will change from   to     with the aim to introduce permanent redirects for the legacy URLs on 2020-06-15.
 * Wikidata development team is currently running a survey until June 9th to understand better how people access and reuse Wikidata’s data from the code of their applications and tools (for example through APIs), and how we can improve the tools to make your workflows easier. If you would like to participate, please use this link (Google Forms, estimated fill-in time 5min).

Special:WantedTemplates
Hi, I have been cleaning up Special:WantedTemplates and noticed that [//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Sub'%2B'st:blatantvandal Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Sub'+'st:blatantvandal] is pointing to your monobook.js and vector.js pages. clearly these are false positives (basically a bug in how WP parses .js pages). it would be really great if you could add to the top and  to the bottom of those pages. by putting these tags in comments, it won't prevent the javascript from executing, but it will remove those pages from [//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Sub'%2B'st:blatantvandal Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Sub'+'st:blatantvandal]. alternatively for the monobook.js page, if you are no longer using the monobook skin (many people are using vector these days) and don't need to keep the old page, you could just have the page deleted. thank you in advance for your help.

Thank You!
Thank you for your feedback. I recently finished my second edition of San Pedro High School Softball: A Diamond Dynasty as I published the first edition in 2017, and just created a new Wikipedia account to add to the history of my hometown sports for San Pedro, Port Of Los Angeles and Mary Star Of The Sea High Schools. I do have a question though... how do you add a new subject if you want to talk about a subject? I want to add a brief sports history section for Port Of Los Angeles High School for everyone to see. Thanks again for all your help thus far. :) - San Pedro Sports Historian San Pedro Sports Historian (talk) 08:08, 12 July 2020 (UTC)
