ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Sorry, just since it had such an edit ability for easy click, I did so.
I apologize to to Aphex, I listened to 2015 youtube play, then seen the news the next day explained Wikipedia was edit able. So hearing you for over an hour the night before ends up I thought of you to edit. I only changed names and birth date in one area of the page. I am completely sorry for any miswonder of my intent. Love your unique clicks and bings, Jared Dean Jay Girlfriendfingers (talk) 02:40, 22 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. No problem, we all make mistakes. You can use the public sandbox (or your own sandbox accessible with the link at the top of the page) if you would like to experiment. The page Getting started is also a great resource.

Adding photographer's credit to a photo caption
Hi NicoScribe! I see no problems or harm with giving credit to photographers of any image on any Wikipedia article page. Of course I know that all copyright licence agreements and authors name is on archive at Wikimedia Commons, but that is a different section from Wikipedia articles. I think adding a photographer's credit to photo captions provides acknowledgement, recognition and exposure to the photographer's work upfront and may encourage more professional photographers to give permission to use their work on Wikipedia. Most fan photos are often poor in quality but great in quantity yet most uploaders choose not to use fan photos. It is clear that Wikipedia article pages with images have more page views that ones that do not. If you are a professional photographer would you not want your name displayed on a Wikipedia page especially after you gave permission to use it on Wikipedia? Cheers!

Photo of Mark Linkous
Again, I DID NOT upload it, as your message infers. I don't know how to remove this from all sites. Maybe you could assist me, rather than ask why I did this or that? How about it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ocgiii (talk • contribs) 17:05, 28 March 2017 (UTC)
 * you did not add the image to the article Mark Linkous but, according to your list of "global contributions" on all the Wikimedia projects, someone using your account uploaded commons:File:Linkousin1992.jpg into Commons on 12 November 2009.
 * I am not an expert on Commons, but I see in commons:Commons:Criteria for speedy deletion that you can not ask for a speedy deletion (because the file is older than 7 days) and that you can fill a deletion request. The page about deletion requests says that you just have to go to the file page (commons:File:Linkousin1992.jpg) and click on "Nominate for deletion" in the "Tools" menu on the left (with more detailed instructions described in commons:Help:Nominate for deletion).

Logos by Aolden23
Hello I have noticed the edits, , ,  and  due to the presence of the associated articles in the category:Articles with missing files. All these edits have the same pattern: Yamla has been reverting edits by (who has been blocked for copyright violations) but Fastily has deleted the old files between the date of Aolden23's edits and the date of Yamla's edits (because they were unused non-free media files for more than 7 days since Aolden23's edits) so some articles show red links to deleted files. I have two questions: Regards, --NicoScribe (talk) 09:00, 26 July 2017 (UTC)
 * 1) Yamla, do you intent to go to Commons to ask for the deletion of the 71 files uploaded there by Aolden23? I could do it, but I am not an expert about logos, copyright and deletions requests for batch of files.
 * 2) Fastily, is it possible (perhaps after the file-by-file deletion analysis on Commons) to restore the old non-free files on WP when Aolden23 replaced them by copyrighted files on Commons, during his 56 contributions here?
 * I am a bit late, but I have just found that everything has been corrected in Requests for undeletion/Archive 276, so I send many thanks to KylieTastic and Graeme Bartlett. --NicoScribe (talk) 18:36, 20 March 2018 (UTC)

Redirects

Icelandic names: Reply from my talk page
I've noticed that you've reverted the guidlines on Categorization of people - I would think that you'd say reverting DEFAULTSORT like "DEFAULTSORT:Ellert Solvason" would revert back to DEFAULTSORT:Solvason, Ellert. I apologise for possible misunderstanding. Iggy (talk) 17:15, 10 November 2017 (UTC)
 * I have made this revert on the guideline just before my first message in your talk page, that's what I said in my message. For Ellert Sölvason, the correct DEFAULTSORT is DEFAULTSORT:"Solvason, Ellert". And it should be combined with the sort key "Ellert Solvason" on the Icelandic categories. Now, are you OK with the guideline and my explanations in your talk page? If it is the case, well, your modifications of DEFAULTSORT done on 11 October 2017 about Icelandic footballers should be modified. --NicoScribe (talk) 17:31, 10 November 2017 (UTC)
 * I'll revert them if that's alright. Iggy (talk) 17:33, 10 November 2017 (UTC)
 * OK thank you. --NicoScribe (talk) 17:35, 10 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Job done with the reversions. I will not alter them again. Also I am sorry for the delay in the understanding of that. Thanks for the rule on that, Iggy (talk) 17:43, 10 November 2017 (UTC)
 * no problem! Thank you again --NicoScribe (talk) 17:48, 10 November 2017 (UTC)

Why did you undo my revision on the Bjork page for Who Is It? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7F:A817:DC00:180A:2B80:11FE:8F33 (talk) 23:57, 4 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Hello 2A02:C7F:A817:DC00:180A:2B80:11FE:8F33,
 * First of all, I want to thank you for your contribution to Who Is It (Björk song), because you have cited your source. This is a great reflex, according to Citing sources. I undid your contribution because your source contains only comments from anonymous users (like you and me), so this is not reliable according to WP:NOTRELIABLE.
 * WP:NOTRELIABLE comes from the policy Verifiability, and WP:USERGENERATED (cited in my edit summary) comes from the content guideline Identifying reliable sources.

Sorting of Icelanders' names
Hi there, NicoScribe! I see you reverted my editing on the sorting of Lilja Dögg Alfreðsdóttir and María Ellingsen. As a result, I checked more carefully into the WP procedures and turned up WikiProject Iceland/Style advice which describes more clearly how to categorize and sort Icelandic names. I will now check through my recent edits on other Icelanders and adapt as necessary. (Puisque vous êtes francophone, j'ai également examiné les catégories équivalentes pour la version FR de Wikipédia et je vois que le tri est basé sur le dernier nom, comme si c'était un nom de famille. Cela rend la vie plus simple!)--Ipigott (talk) 10:51, 8 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi OK, thanks. I have cited the guideline WP:SUR in my edit summaries: WP:SUR and WikiProject Iceland/Style advice say the same thing but, yes, the latter gives more details.
 * Sur Wikipédia en français, effectivement, il a été décidé de traiter les noms islandais comme des noms de famille (c'est la conséquence indirecte de fr:Wikipédia:Principe de moindre surprise) mais sans exception pour les "catégories islandaises". Donc Wikipédia en anglais et en français gèrent le DEFAULTSORT des noms islandais de la même manière (par exemple : ). Mais Wikipédia en français se contente, par exemple, de au lieu de  .

SivakarthikeyanAtharvaaViroshan
Hi NicoScribe - thanks for your post at User talk:SivakarthikeyanAtharvaaViroshan I totally agree - I could find no sources for any of the edits made by this editor, who has only added "Viroshan" or "ViroshanS" as a cast member to numerous articles. Obviously, the user's name SivakarthikeyanAtharvaaViroshan can be shortened to Viroshan or ViroshanS, the two names that he has been adding. I have deleted all the users edits, and all mention of Viroshan or ViroshanS have completely disappeared from Wikipedia - so it seems clear the user was just spamming their name into numerous articles. It may be worth searching for Viroshan and VirashanS for a few days to be sure they do not try re-adding themselves using a different account. Thanks for your help in this - Arjayay (talk)
 * Hi OK and thanks. Well, for the moment, the user has stopped. I still hope that SivakarthikeyanAtharvaaViroshan will answer to our remarks.
 * In my remarks, I have listed several films, but they were not chosen randomly: I had already noticed edits almost identical to SivakarthikeyanAtharvaaViroshan's ones. You can look at Special:Contributions/2405:3800:100:11AB:0:0:0:1 and Special:Contributions/2405:3800:80:4301:0:0:0:1...

Recent changes monitoring → collateral damage
Hello

I have been monitoring the recent changes yesterday. 81.216.34.35 was vandalizing the article Vaasa, so I have canceled the vandalisms and I have added {{subst:uw-vandalism2}} into User talk:81.216.34.35.

This morning, you have blocked me just before blocking 81.216.34.35. Is my block a collateral damage?

Regards --NicoScribe (talk) 06:37, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
 * It appears I never meant to block you in the first place. I unblocked you and made a note in the block log that you were blocked through no fault of your own. I sincerely regret the error.– Gilliam (talk) 06:42, 17 May 2018 (UTC)

 * Just on 5 June when i went through the Icelandic 2018 EC team. And no, was not aware of SUR, never heard of it. Kante4 (talk) 14:42, 8 June 2018 (UTC)
 * OK, thanks. Do you plan to reinstate the sort keys, or do you want me to do it? --NicoScribe (talk) 14:48, 8 June 2018 (UTC)
 * If you want to do it, no problem with me. But since it was my fault, it's up to you to decide. ;) Kante4 (talk) 20:39, 8 June 2018 (UTC)

Rollback granted
Hi NicoScribe. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=rights&user=&page=User%3ANicoScribe enabled] rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback: If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! TonyBallioni (talk) 20:58, 26 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
 * Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
 * Rollback should never be used to edit war.
 * If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
 * Use common sense.

Add town
Please add one town in Kollam district,kerala state,India Town name: Oyoor — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rameesadnoc (talk • contribs) 10:09, 9 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Hello
 * I am sorry, I know nothing about these subjects.
 * The article Oyoor already exists. I see that Oyoor is a township of Velinalloor village in the Kollam district. The article Kollam district already exists too. I have checked several articles about districts. They only mention the major cities and towns. Velinalloor is not mentioned in the article Kollam district. So I think that Oyoor should not be mentioned in this article, too.
 * Well, you should ask for guidance in Wikipedia talk:Noticeboard for India-related topics or in Help desk.

Global watchlist - Update 1
 Updates associated with DannyS712's Global watchlist script:


 * General announcements
 * Management has migrated to phabricator; to report a bug or request a feature, please create a new task with the script's tag
 * Message translation has been reduced; for common messages that are already translated in mediawiki core, the system translations are used, in order to reduce duplication of efforts


 * Recent additions
 * New pages are shown at the start of a site's feed
 * Log entries are shown at the end of a site's feed
 * Basic validation has been added to user settings, applied before saving
 * Site validation has also been added; a site (excluding unique projects like wikidata, meta, commons, etc.) is considered to be valid if it is the form of "language.project", where both the language code and project name are valid. It does not, however, check that the actual site is valid; only that it could be. In other words, even though  refers to a site that doesn't exist, it is considered valid, because   is a valid language code (  is a working site) and   is a valid project.


 * Announcements
 * BREAKING CHANGE: Backwards compatibility supporting the use of sites as  (like 'en.wikipedia.org' or 'meta.wikimedia.org'), deprecated in version 1.7.5, will be removed soon; all sites should now be saved as   (like 'de.wikinews' or 'fr.wikisource')
 * BREAKING CHANGE: Storing user sites as, deprecated in version version 1.11.11, will be removed soon; all settings should be stored in the   object
 * Both of these breaking changes will be implemented alongside version 4.0; until then, any use of the config page (m:Special:BlankPage/GlobalWatchlistConfig) will result in saving settings in the newest format

Version 4.0 should be released in around a week. It will include the new features mentioned above, as well as removal of backwards compatibility for settings and sites.
 * Next release

I've sent this first message to users that participated in the discussion at m:Community Wishlist Survey 2019/Watchlists/Revive Crosswatch tool or otherwise shown interest in the script. To subscribe or unsubscribe from future updates, see the distribution list.

Global watchlist - Update 2
 Updates associated with DannyS712's Global watchlist script:


 * General notes
 * To report a bug or request a feature, please create a new task on Phabricator with the script's tag


 * Recent additions
 * Site validation has been tightened. Previously, only the language code and project name had to be valid - now, they must be a valid combination (i.e.  exists, and so is valid, but   is not valid, because no such wiki exists).
 * When the global watchlist feed is loading, an OOUI widget will be shown, rather than an animated gif.
 * An option has been added to no longer group edits to the same page. For now, this isn't very useful, since metadata for the edits (editor, summary, tags, etc.) are not yet shown, but they will be soon. Until then, ungrouped edits are treated the same as pages with only 1 edit - the minor and bot flags are displayed if applicable. If edits are grouped, the minor and bot flags are only shown if they apply to all of the edits.


 * Upcoming changes
 * Starting with version 5.0, there will be an option at the settings page to switch to and from a "stable" version of the script. When activated, the script import in your global.js should be replaced, and then the page refreshed with the new script loaded. The stable script will live at m:User:DannyS712/Global watchlist/stable.js, and will be updated with each full release. Otherwise, it shouldn't be edited, providing a version that is less prone to bugs as the script is developed.


 * Announcements
 * WARNING: Starting with version 5.1, the option to mark the pages of a site as seen be implemented using the  API option, rather than manually listing the titles. This is being done to simplify the implementation code. This will result in the same functionality as marking all pages as seen via Special:Watchlist (i.e. even if the page isn't visible due to your filter choices, it will still be marked as seen). If you would like to keep using the current method for a while, please switch to the stable branch.

Version 5.0 has just gone live. It includes the new features mentioned above.
 * Next release

Global watchlist - Update 3
 Updates associated with DannyS712's Global watchlist script:


 * Survey
 * I am investigating adding more context to each entry that is shown (such as the edit summaries, tags, patrol marks, the user who made the edit, etc.). Is there any desire for such additions? If so, what should be added first, and what is a low priority? Please leave feedback on the relevant phabricator task, T238300.


 * Recent additions
 * Site validation has been overhauled. Rather than hard-coding a list of valid sites, users will be able to watch any site where they have an attached local user account. If a site is rejected as invalid, please ensure that there is indeed a local account attached to your global account.
 * Users will now be alerted regarding the results of attempting to update their settings.
 * Live updates have been added - when activated, the script will refresh in the background, and then load the new feed, every 7.5 seconds. In the future, this frequency may be configurable.
 * OOUI icons have been added to most buttons.
 * There is now an option to eliminate the confirmation dialog when marking all sites as seen.


 * Announcements
 * WARNING: Starting with version 6.1, site aliases currently used when saving settings will be removed, and only sites in the form of `lang.project` will be accepted.
 * As noted in the last update, marking a site as seen now uses, which means that any changes to watched pages between when the watchlist was loaded and when the site was "marked as seen" may be ignored.

Version 6.0 was just finalized for the development and stable branches of the script.

Google Code-In 2019 is coming - please mentor some documentation tasks!
Hello,

Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.

I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!

From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.

If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.

Thank you!

Global watchlist - Update 4
 Updates associated with DannyS712's Global watchlist script:


 * Recent additions
 * A new "fast" mode has been introduced. When used, the watchlist serves as just a list of pages that have been modified, and no longer includes context about the edits themselves.
 * More information has been added to entries. When edits are not grouped by page, or when there is only 1 edit to a page, minor and bot flags are shown, as well as the user who made the edit, the summary used, and any tags that were applied. When multiple entries are grouped, bot and minor flags are only shown if all of the grouped edits were made by bots or where marked as minor. If only 1 user edited the page, that user's name is still shown, but no summaries or tags are included.
 * All watchlists are now fetched in parallel, rather than in series, greatly reducing load time.


 * Technical notes
 * Most of the source code is now annotated with jsdoc notes, allowing others to more clearly understand and review the code.
 * I will be looking into creating guidelines to let others contribute to the script; see T238298.


 * Translations
 * There is now proper qqq documentation for translations. Translation takes place at m:User:DannyS712/Global watchlist/Translate, and help is appreciated.
 * Newly translated messages are added to the script when I notice them; if you have translated messages that aren't showing up, please let me know at m:User talk:DannyS712.

Global watchlist - Update 7
 Updates associated with DannyS712's Global watchlist script and the Global watchlist extension:

I have received a grant from the WMF to develop this script into an extension. As a result, I do not plan on any further developments being made to the user script. Please see the grant page for more information. Those interested in reviewing and providing feedback for the extension should follow the new phabricator board, tag/mediawiki-extensions-globalwatchlist.
 * Future development

Many thanks to those that have contributed translations for the script's messages. Now that I am working on an extension, translation has migrated to translatewiki. Please see:

Global watchlist - Update 8
 Updates associated with DannyS712's Global watchlist script and the Global watchlist extension:

As I noted in the last issue, I received a grant from the WMF to develop the global watchlist script into an extension. That extension has now been deployed on Meta. Visit m:Special:GlobalWatchlistSettings to get started.

I do not plan on any further developments being made to the user script. I have released version 9.1.0 to both the dev and stable versions, which includes a notification about the extension being available when you use the user script. You can dismiss the notification, and the script still works, but it will no longer be maintained.

Those interested in providing feedback for the extension should use the phabricator board, tag/mediawiki-extensions-globalwatchlist. Any bug reports about the extension should be filed there.

This will likely be the last update sent to this list.

Global watchlist - Update 9
 Updates associated with DannyS712's Global watchlist script and the Global watchlist extension:

Hi everyone. As I noted in the last issue, I received a grant last year from the WMF to develop the global watchlist script into an extension. That extension has now been deployed on Meta. Visit m:Special:GlobalWatchlistSettings to get started.

That grant has ended, and I have requested another grant to continue development of the extension, and figured subscribers of the newsletter about the user script might be interested. You can see and comment on the grant request at m:Grants:Project/DannyS712/Continued work on GlobalWatchlist extension - if you support this, I hope you'll consider endorsing the request.
