Rollback

edit

I respectfully request Rollback access to facilitate the use of Huggle, which will allow me to promptly and efficiently revert vandalism. I've been monitoring Recent Changes for the past 2-3 months, reverting disruptive edits.

I'm familiar with some Wikipedia policies, including: Reporting repeated vandals after 4 talk page warnings at WP:AIV, reporting reporting sock puppet accounts at WP:SPI and following the 3-revert rule (WP:3RR). And also I'm familiar with the use of Twinkle. ®asteem Talk 20:32, 2 November 2024 (UTC)

I see that you are failing to consistently warn editors when you revert their edits. Why? It's important to leave a notification for every revert you make (especially when reverting good faith edits). Are you aware of tools such as Twinkle or Ultraviolet which make this extremely easy? -Fastily 21:32, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
Fastily, I'm already using Twinkle. I've warned many users for vandalism, but I don't warn new users who have made only one edit, as per "Back Biting" guideline. Instead, I typically warn a user after their second vandalism attempt. But in future I'll consider warning users even after one non-constructive edit. ®asteem Talk 21:47, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
No, that is incorrect. You need to be leaving notifications (or warnings) for every revert, regardless of how many edits the user has made or whether this is the user's first instance of vandalism. -Fastily 01:07, 3 November 2024 (UTC)
{{Done}} I'll always leave a warning notice on their talk page without digging into their number of edits. ®asteem Talk 01:54, 3 November 2024 (UTC)
Great, could you please now go do some RC patrol in which you demonstrate how you will always be notifying all editors when you revert their edits? Also please don't use {{Done}} or {{Not done}} in your replies to me; on this page at least, these are for admin use only. -Fastily 02:36, 3 November 2024 (UTC)
Sure, I'll do RC patrol & will always notify users when I revert their changes. I sincerely apologize for using {done} or {not done} previously. ®asteem Talk 03:17, 3 November 2024 (UTC)
Just took another look at your recent contributions and I'm still seeing instances where you are reverting edits and failing to notify the editor: 1, 2, 3. Didn't you just promise that you would be more diligent about this? -Fastily 22:10, 8 November 2024 (UTC)
I sincerely apologize for these mistakes. However, I didn't mean to make such errors; in essence, the internet is quite slow where I reside, which is in a hilly area. I accidentally lost my internet connection, which resulted in these two reverts for the edit warnings I neglected to leave. I came here to reapply for rollback rights after attempting to adhere to the RC log and maintaining a clean record with the goal of leaving edit warnings for every update I reverted for non-constructive edits. I sincerely apologize for these errors. Please review my recent history of RC reverts and reconsider my request for the rollback right. ®asteem Talk 21:39, 16 November 2024 (UTC)
If that's the case, could you please slow down and double check that you have actually left warnings? I'm finding examples as recently as today where you failed to notify the editor (e.g. 1, 2, 3). Also I see that you were just warned for edit warring. Would you care to comment on that? Courtesy ping for @NXcrypto. -Fastily 03:45, 17 November 2024 (UTC)
I assume Rasteem is on a verge of getting topic banned for his aggressive and frequent edit warring especially on caste topics. I really don't think he can be trusted with any advanced permissions at all. Nxcrypto Message 04:04, 17 November 2024 (UTC)

I think I am ready for Rollback user rights, after being declined twice before. I have 1835 mainspace edits, several months finding and reverting vandalism, and almost always notifying editors about their edits. I understand that Rollback is only used for obvious vandalism, and it should not be used for good-faith edits. Myrealnamm (💬Let's talk · 📜My work) 21:31, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

  Done -Fastily 03:45, 17 November 2024 (UTC)

Reason for requesting rollback rights: I am deeply interested in editing and improving Wikipedia articles, with a particular focus on topics related to films. Given the prevalence of vandalism in film-related articles, I believe having rollback rights would enable me to address such issues more efficiently. I am committed to contributing positively to Wikipedia and ensuring the integrity of its content. SayantanDhara (talk) 04:48, 16 November 2024 (UTC)

  Not done I reviewed your contributions and found little to no recent anti-vandalism work. If you're still interested in this tool then please spend at least a month actively patrolling RecentChanges (Twinkle & Ultraviolet can help with that) before reapplying. Also, please ensure that you are consistently warning editors when you revert their edits. Thanks, Fastily 03:45, 17 November 2024 (UTC)

Hey, I was granted a 3-month trial by Robertsky, and I used Anti-Vandal to counter vandalism. However, it was not renewed. Now I would like to continue using this amazing tool to counter vandalism. Thanks. GrabUp - Talk 14:27, 16 November 2024 (UTC)

Pending changes reviewer

edit

I was granted temporary PCR privileges about four years ago, but did not request an extension due to genuine concerns regarding competence that were raised ahead of my successful rollback request about a month later. However, I believe that I have, at least for the most part, rectified these concerns over the past few months, where I have gotten much more active at AfC, NPP, and counter-vandalism (mainly using AntiVandal and, more recently, Huggle). Additionally, the reason for the competence concerns is now moot, since they arose due to my tendency to ask seemingly frivolous questions on AN and the help desk, while I now exercise great caution before bringing anything to the former, and rarely use the latter, as I am now much more familiar with our policies and guidelines, and no longer need as much clarification on them as then (see User talk:JJPMaster/Archive 2#WP:AN). If any concerns are still present, please let me know. Otherwise, I at least request that my temporary rights be restored, if it is not possible for me to be granted full rights at this time.

Thanks for the ping and the request, JJPMaster! And thanks Extraordinary Writ, whom I agree with, for granting the request. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 13:12, 15 November 2024 (UTC)

I have been patrolling RC since 8 August 2024 and would ask to have Pending changes reviewer rights. I've initially had a request for this permission here on 30 September 2024 but was denied. Anyways, I have stumbled upon across lots of Pending edits on RC and some of them appear to be constructive. I have a good understanding in basic and some advanced Wikipedia policies and have been editing Wikipedia since April 2024 and have nearly 9,000 edits in my contributions. Thank you.

Hey, I am here again with another editor who has created 86 articles, including BLPs. One of their creations was taken to AfD but resulted in a keep. I reviewed some of their articles and found that adding them to the AP could be beneficial. Basic checks were done, and no major issues were found. It’s up to you, and thanks!

Extended confirmed

edit

Reason for requesting extended confirmed rights: Hello, I am a student in a Turkish school called "İzmir Özel Türk Koleji" (https://tr.wikipedia.org/wiki/İzmir_Özel_Türk_Koleji) and I have created a Turkish translation with additional helpful and up to date info and would like to publish this to the public English wikipedia but since my account is not yet eligible to do this I am requesting the permission to publish my English translation of this page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Berker1237/Izmir_Private_Turkish_College). Berker1237 (talk) 22:56, 13 November 2024 (UTC)

I added a template to your draft, follow the directions at the top of User:Berker1237/Izmir Private Turkish College, and it will be queued for review. — xaosflux Talk 23:58, 15 November 2024 (UTC)

Page mover

edit


I am an experienced Wikipedia editor. I occasionally need to move pages from one title to another. I'll post a discussion about it if I think there's going to be any controversy about it, but very often I'm dealing with low-interest pages that other editors simply aren't working on. If there's no existing page, I can go ahead and do the move, but if there's an existing redirect page, there's no way that I can do the swap and move the page history along with it. I recently got frustrated with this and moved a plant species page (who's name in the title did not match current taxonomy) from Micromeria douglasii to Clinopodium douglasii by simply cutting and pasting between the two. I'm informed that's really not the right way to do it - I'd like to get swap page right and backtrack and do it the right way. (Revert to pre-move versions of each page, swap, and re-enter later edits.) Peter G Werner (talk) 02:08, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

Template editor

edit

I am primarily active in WikiProject Eurovision and want to improve protected templates such as Template:Infobox song contest national year, Template:Escyr, and Template:Country in the Eurovision Song Contest. Furthermore I would love to contribute with others if needed. As a software engineer I have a passion in templates and modules.

I have about 2,500 total edits on Wikipedia of which more than 300 are in the module and template namespaces. I have edited 6 sandbox pages, however I have only 3 edit request. I have never received blocks and I've definitely been editing more than one year. — TheThomanski | t | c | 01:37, 17 November 2024 (UTC)

I ask for help

edit

Hello, dear administrators! I have been writing and editing in the Russian-language section of Wikipedia for almost 4 years. I am learning English and I want to take part in the work in the English-language section. I'm faced with the fact that I can't save edits, even asking for help or asking a question here is very problematic. The service does not allow me to save edits. I have never used proxies or other anonymizers. In the Russian-language section, I have extended rights, we call it Patrolling. The statistics for my account are here. I haven't been able to send this message for 24 hours. Please remove the restrictions from me. With respect, Znatokgoroda77 (talk) 06:36, 2 November 2024 (UTC)

@Znatokgoroda77. What error message are you getting when you try to save an edit? –Novem Linguae (talk) 06:55, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
You've exceeded your rate limit. Please wait some time and try again. Znatokgoroda77 (talk) 10:10, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
I'm on mobile right now so I can't easily look up your exact rate limit, but a rate limit error means that you're trying to make too many edits per minute. The solution to this problem may be just waiting one minute when you receive this error message, and then making your edit after the one minute. –Novem Linguae (talk) 11:03, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
Znatokgoroda77, you can check your rate limits by visiting this API link. – DreamRimmer (talk) 11:36, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
For example, if your rate limit is {"edit":{"user":{"hits":90,"seconds":60}}}, that means you can make up to 90 edits in a minute. – DreamRimmer (talk) 11:41, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
OK, I'm back at a computer. According to this, it should be 8 edits per minute for a new user. I'm scratching my head at how this user could be hitting the rate limit with such a low, spaced out edit count. –Novem Linguae (talk) 11:46, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
If you run into the same issue again, please take a screenshot and upload it to https://postimages.org/. Just share the link here, and we'll be glad to help you fix it. – DreamRimmer (talk) 11:57, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
Thank you very much, dear administrators! I am very pleased that I have met sympathetic, caring people here.
After the response at 14:06, I wanted to send a thank you. And again, this problem arose. https://postimg.cc/9zxM4g5T/3d4a7b00
Thanks for the help! With respect, Znatokgoroda77 (talk) 05:53, 3 November 2024 (UTC)
@Novem Linguae
Now it's even worse(. Now he writes that he uses a bot, but I'm already an older person and I don't even know what it is. I don't use any bots. Now, when answering you, it says this:
1. As an anti-abuse measure, you are limited from performing this action too many times in a short space of time, and you have exceeded this limit. Please try again in a few minutes. If you are attempting to run a bot or semi-automated script, please read and understand our bot policy, then request approval. Users who run unauthorized bot scripts may lose their editing privileges.
2. You've exceeded your rate limit. Please wait some time and try again. Znatokgoroda77 (talk) 14:06, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
@Znatokgoroda77: Please make two more edits, and you'll be promoted to autoconfirmed. This will increase your rate limit to 90 edits per minute, which should help with the rate limit issue. – DreamRimmer (talk) 15:19, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
1) Are you rate limited on Russian Wikipedia, English Wikipedia, or both? 2) Now he writes that he uses a bot. Who is "he"? Are you the one having rate limit problems, or is a different editor having rate limit problems? 3) Are you still getting an error? 4) If you are still getting the error message, is the error message still a rate limit message? –Novem Linguae (talk) 07:46, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
This is common translation error in Russian to English (as is dropping articles): "его" means "it" but also "him". jp×g🗯️ 18:22, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
And why is this a WP:IANB matter anyway? --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 08:16, 5 November 2024 (UTC)

Possible blackout of en.wikipedia

edit

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.


Interface administrators; there is a now open RfC at this location requesting community input on a blackout protest over the ANI case in India and the WMF's response to it. Should the RfC conclude in favor, Interface Administrators will need to implement the result. This RfC is likely following an WP:IAR route and will possibly conclude within 24-48 hours if it snowball closes. --Hammersoft (talk) 17:54, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

Blackouts require the database to be locked, which is not something interface admins can bring about. Implementation via interface changes alone would be a terrible idea as it opens up the site to vandalism through mobile apps, people editing with CSS adjustments or with javascript disabled, and so on, while patrollers are unable to access the site or use any JS-powered anti-vandalism tools – SD0001 (talk) 18:55, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
^ This. I've been considering technical implementations we could potentially do on our end since seeing that RfC, but without a database lock there's fundamentally nothing we can do to actually prevent a determined bad actor from editing Wikipedia. Writ Keeper  18:59, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
An alternate option would be a "click-through" blackout where pages would still be accessible behind the banner. Would that be technically possible? Chaotic Enby (talk · contribs) 19:13, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
Is that what people are actually voting to support? Is the expectation that you have to click through on every page load, or just the first visit to Wikipedia in that session? we should not be solutioning this *after* people are voting on it. Writ Keeper  19:30, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
Iff folx do go down this route, could we please ensure theres an ID/class assigned to the banner so it can be easily hidden via some user CSS and/or implement a cookie so you only have to hide it once? When the mass of vandals find out how they can easily bypass this, it'll be really annoying for the patrollers to deal with the fallout if they have to close the banner every time.

I don't know if it's possible to determine user permissions via JS but if it is, could it just use that to determine if it loads the blackout js vs a banner? LakesideMinersCome Talk To Me! 19:15, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
Any JS-based solution would be easily circumvented by simply disabling browser JS, or by editing via the API. Writ Keeper  19:26, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
While still allowing for people with the perms to edit without added effort LakesideMinersCome Talk To Me! 19:54, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
This is probably hopelessly naïve, and is definitely a plan of last resort, but could we run a bot that reverts all edits within the 48/72 hour period? I see no reason why a bot would need JS enabled. Sincerely, Dilettante 20:04, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
Not naive at all. * Pppery * it has begun... 20:07, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
Or an edit filter that blocks all edits (I believe such has accidentally been created before). Sincerely, Dilettante 21:03, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
The edit filter extension has some failsafes to automatically disable filters with a high rate of matches. They might (or might not) interfere here. * Pppery * it has begun... 21:11, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
I suppose one solution, should the motion pass, would be to formally request the WMF to lock the database? Requires a hell of a lot of gumption! ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 19:30, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
There are several volunteers who have the technical ability to lock the database. It's probably best not to rely on them, though, and assume we can't do anything not accomplishable on-wiki. For comparison the SOPA/PIPA blackout involved both a config change to disable write access server-side and a centralnotice, but all the code (still available on Meta as m:MediaWiki:Centralnotice-template-blackout, although it's bitrotted enough to no longer work as written) actually did was add some CSS and JS, both of which Iadmins were capable of doing locally. * Pppery * it has begun... 19:50, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
Just a note, from something that went very wrong on another project: we should absolutely not consider anything that "logs out" the user. — xaosflux Talk 19:36, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
I, am morbidly curious. LakesideMinersCome Talk To Me! 19:55, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
Short answer is that we don't have accounts here - if you log out here you log out across the entire WMF production system. — xaosflux Talk 19:58, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
I think technically the global session is stored in a different cookie (centralauth_Session versus enwikiSession). So it is in theory possible to log out from here without logging out globally. But I'm not volunteering to write such a script (nor do I see it as necessary at all) * Pppery * it has begun... 20:01, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
That's why it was a short answer :) But in general, it can cause big problems in a sloppy way. — xaosflux Talk 20:25, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

FYI, the blackout RFC was closed recently without achieving consensus. –Novem Linguae (talk) 21:25, 16 November 2024 (UTC)

Hi! At User:IvoShandor/monobook.js, would someone be able to replace line 8 with <syntaxhighlight lang="javascript"> and line 35 with </syntaxhighlight>? This will clear Category:Pages using deprecated enclose attributes (and reduce Category:Pages using deprecated source tags by one). Thanks, HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 01:48, 16 November 2024 (UTC)

Removed, their positions were invalid and shouldn't have been there at all. Izno (talk) 02:58, 16 November 2024 (UTC)
