Disambiguation link notification for February 1
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Loot Crate, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Comic-con. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Tech News: 2016-05
 Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available. Problems Changes this week
 * Sites with a  address were by mistake redirected to the Wikimedia Foundation wiki on 26 January. This included Meta and Wikimedia Commons. The mistake was fixed after an hour.
 * Some users had problems logging in and out around 22 January. Bots also had problems and edit previews did not work properly. This was because of problems related to the new component SessionManager. It was undone on 23 January.
 * Because of new problems with SessionManager the latest version of MediaWiki was removed from the Wikimedia wikis again on 31 January. The new version this week will be without SessionManager.
 * The page history will get a help link. This will go to Help:Page history on Meta. Wikis can exchange it for a link to their local pages.
 * Notifications will only show part of a page name if it is very long. You will also have another way to mark notifications as read.
 * The Universal Language Selector input methods are now available with the visual editor. This means many who write in non-Latin scripts can now use the visual editor.
 * The visual editor will now give you more tools to edit tables. You can move rows and columns in a table and copy parts of tables to make new ones. You can also copy and paste more than one cell at the same time.
 * The visual editor has a new warning message when you leave a page you are editing without saving. Non-English wikis might need to translate it.
 * Octicons-sync.svg The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 2 February. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 3 February. It will be on all wikis from 4 February (calendar).

Meetings
 * Octicons-sync.svg You can join the next meeting with the VisualEditor team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. The meeting will be on 2 February at 20:00 (UTC). See how to join.
 * Octicons-tools.svg You can join the next meeting with the Architecture committee. The topic this week is expiring watch list entries. The meeting will be on 3 February at 22:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Future changes
 * Octicons-tools.svg The  domain will be shut down. This is planned to happen in March. You should use   at each individual project domain instead.

Carles Romagosa Vidal Page
Hi, you deleted Carles Romagosa Vidal page on the 27th of November. I just wanted to reply and use this talk site to confirm that I'm the owner of the content that I'm trying to post on Wikipedia and I would like to know what I would need to do to get it permanently. Many thanks for your help. — Preceding unsigned comment added by M.farrerons (talk • contribs) 10:36, 2 February 2016 (UTC)
 * The article was deleted after a deletion discussion took place where it was decided that the subject was not notable enough for a Wikipedia article. Wikipedia article subjects must have been the subject of multiple in depth reliable sources of information to qualify for a Wikipedia article. On a side note - did you try to make this edit (this one on my talk page) twice by any chance? If so, what happened the first time? Thanks, Sam Walton (talk) 09:25, 5 February 2016 (UTC)

The deletion of Plava and Gusinje
I provided several references and wrote the article properly, yet it was deleted. Explain yourself. --Albanian Historian (talk) 23:08, 4 February 2016 (UTC)
 * I merely closed the deletion discussion as having found consensus to delete the page. The reasons given there included the article being an inappropriate content fork, your sources not being reliable, and it not having been written in the expected encyclopedic tone. Sam Walton (talk) 09:32, 5 February 2016 (UTC)

Other accounts
Hi. What happens to the other blocked accounts used by me and those suspected to be used by me although they weren't? --Bazaan (talk) 13:01, 9 February 2016 (UTC)
 * The other accounts which you used will remain blocked; part of your unblock condition is that you stick to this account. As for accounts you claim weren't used by you, most of the blocked accounts were blocked with CheckUser evidence, meaning - in short - that they stand little chance of being unblocked. If there are accounts which were blocked as suspected sockpuppets, however, and you genuinely weren't the one operating them, post a message to Wikipedia talk:Sockpuppet investigations laying out the details of that; someone might look into it.

Bazaan
Hi! You unblocked Bazaan few weeks ago after his request for standard offer was accepted. I am pretty sure that he is using the IP to evade his topic ban. Can you take a look? I just intended to re-block him, but then I thought to seek another opinion.  Vanjagenije  (talk)  00:22, 25 February 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm not 100% that that is definitely Bazaan and I would be more comfortable if we could get a CU to look at it. Can you open an SPI? Sam Walton (talk) 09:14, 25 February 2016 (UTC)
 * On second thought, I'm pretty certain it is. Given that a standard offer unblock is resting on this, however, I'd still like a CU check. Sam Walton (talk) 11:30, 25 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Posted a new SPI. Sam Walton (talk) 11:38, 25 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Yes, but, CheckUsers are going to decline your request. They are not allowed to publicly connect usernames with IPs.  Vanjagenije  (talk)  13:28, 25 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Oh, yes, of course. Hmm. Sam Walton (talk) 14:40, 25 February 2016 (UTC)

Hi Sam, because pings don't always work, I wanted to alert you to a question I posed at Sockpuppet investigations/Bazaan. I've put the case on hold while waiting for you. If you'd rather discuss it on your Talk page, that's okay, but just make sure I know that's what you prefer. Regards.--Bbb23 (talk) 22:30, 28 February 2016 (UTC)

Adderbury Park F.C.
Hello Sam, back in October 2015 you semi-protected Adderbury Park F.C. from being reverted by an IP, well the same is happening, probably a sock of Turkishpride. Could you please protect the page indefinitely, as there is no reason it should be reverted ever. Thanks, JMHamo (talk) 22:34, 27 February 2016 (UTC)

It is designed for clean and modern infoboxes that are driven by data from Wikidata, easily usable across different language versions, and easily extensible.

Changes this week
 * On wikis where the visual editor is available in single edit tab mode, red links may open the visual editor instead of the wikitext editor, depending on user preferences.

Tekken 7
Thank you for this edit. My first impulse was adding a CN tag, but then I decided to remove it outright...only to get so wrapped up in the edit summary that I forgot to actually remove the text. So ultimately, your edit was what I was intending on doing. I now see its been a discussion point on the talk page too, I'll be sure to drop a note there too. (I too am having a difficult time with this editor and his disregard for WP:OR and poor sourcing.) Thanks. Sergecross73  msg me  16:36, 23 March 2016 (UTC)
 * No worries; we went back and forth on it some time ago until I got tired of arguing. The article -particularly that section- has been on my to-look-at-properly list for a while, was happy to notice you trimming some stuff from it! Now I think about it, this isn't the first time I've had a mildly infuriating argument with this user about sourcing. Sam Walton (talk) 16:39, 23 March 2016 (UTC)

Mariel Pamintuan
Hi Samwalton9. Would you mind taking a look at Mariel Pamintuan? You deleted as a result of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mariel Pamintuan (2nd nomination), but it appears to have been re-created by someone claiming to be her friend. It was tagged with db-person, but that was also removed by the same editor claiming to be her friend. I'm not sure whether the article needs to be deleted per WP:G4 or just restored to the redirect added after the AfD, so I figured I'd ask you since you were the closing admin of that AfD. If this is a sign that "her friends" are going to keep re-creating the article, then maybe WP:SALT should apply? Thanks in advance. -- Marchjuly (talk) 22:52, 25 March 2016 (UTC)

Future changes
 * Commons will soon have improved access to Wikidata's data. It will then be possible to access data about any concept on any page on Commons. Assistance with testing this on the beta cluster is appreciated.
 * Octicons-tools.svg Wikibits.js will not be loaded by default anymore starting April 2016. Gadget and script authors should have already updated their code since the previous announcements, but there is another migration path available if needed. See wikitech-l for details.

Corrections
 * Last week Tech News said the new MediaWiki version would come to wikis from 21 March to 23 March. The right dates were 22 March to 24 March.
