Request on 10:30:55, 8 November 2021 for assistance on AfC submission by AnnDoherty
Hi!

I have reached out to you some time ago to find out what can be done in order to proceed with my article to publishing. Could you please tell me what kind of references should be added to show the significant coverage about Chanty, so that subject can qualify for Wikipedia article? Thanks in advance!

Recent changes
 * Mobile IP editors are now able to receive warning notices indicating they have a talk page message on the mobile website (similar to the orange banners available on desktop). These notices will be displayed on every page outside of the main namespace and every time the user attempts to edit. The notice on desktop now has a slightly different colour.

Changes later this week
 * Wikidata will be read-only for a few minutes on 11 November. This will happen around 06:00 UTC. This is for database maintenance.
 * There is no new MediaWiki version this week.

Future changes
 * In the future, unregistered editors will be given an identity that is not their IP address. This is for legal reasons. A new user right will let editors who need to know the IPs of unregistered accounts to fight vandalism, spam, and harassment, see the IP. You can read the suggestions for how that identity could work and discuss on the talk page.
