Welcome! If you need help with MassMessage itself: please read MassMessage's help page or leave a message below. If you need someone to send a MassMessage for you, or if you want to request a MassMessage sender permission, please leave your request on Requests for help from a sysop or bureaucrat . Requests on this page will not be considered.

On ja.wikipedia.org, messages from "MediaWiki message delivery" are post to ja:Project:お知らせ/ウィキメディア共通 , and messages are included on ja:Project:お知らせ （discussion: ja:Wikipedia?ノ?ト:お知らせ#財?さんからのお知らせと日本語版?部のお知らせを分けませんか ）. So, please change message's header from h2 tag（== xxx ==） to h3 tag（=== xxx ===）, and post on section " ja:Project:お知らせ/ウィキメディア共通#ウィキメディア共通のお知らせ " . -- Miraburu ( talk ) 04:24, 12 September 2022 (UTC) Reply

Hi @ Miraburu . Unfortunately, it is not possible to change the default Heading-level (h2->h3).

MassMessage senders just use the interface shown here File:Screenshot of MassMessage MediaWiki extension.png . It simply adds a new section to the bottom of whichever page is specified in the Distribution list that was used (per your listing ).

You could file a Feature Request for this in the Phabricator workboard ( phab:tag/massmessage/ ), or contribute a patch. However, I would guess (I am not a developer) that it would be technically complicated to make a new setting that only applies to specific pages , so that would make it more difficult, and thus unlikely to be implemented soon.

I hope that helps. Quiddity (WMF) ( talk ) 21:54, 12 September 2022 (UTC) Reply

Hi Quiddity. Thank you for advise. I will discuss format to display the message some more at the ja.wikipedia.org. Miraburu ( talk ) 00:50, 13 September 2022 (UTC) Reply

I noticed that the MediaWiki message delivery arrived on a wrong page on niawikt. Would you please post the messages on wikt:nia:Wiktionary:Monganga_afo as it correctly done on niawiki. I had to move the old messages (2022) to the correct page manually. Thank you in advance. Slaia ( talk ) 11:35, 14 January 2023 (UTC) Reply

@ Slaia There were a few delivery lists that had Bawagoli zato. I've changed them all to Monganga afo. ( 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 .) Quiddity (WMF) ( talk ) 23:52, 17 January 2023 (UTC) Reply

Can i request to massmessage support Ghanaian Pidgin Wikipedia, CentralAuth includes a huge list, so why not support this wiki? Notrealname1234 ( talk ) 21:35, 22 July 2023 (UTC) Reply

@ Notrealname1234 It should already work, it's just that newer wikis are not shown in that account's CentralAuth table due to a technical issue ( phab:T275931 ). If it's failing to deliver messages that were sent to that wiki, please file a new bug for that. I hope that helps. Quiddity (WMF) ( talk ) 20:35, 18 October 2023 (UTC) Reply

Hi, someone sent a MassMessage destination in the Wikisource:Scriptorium page on the French wikisource. But that page is actually made of monthly pages, so it should have been sent to the fr:Wikisource:Scriptorium/Octobre 2023 page instead. I did the transfer, but please fix this if other messages are planned in the future. Seudo ( talk ) 16:38, 18 October 2023 (UTC) Reply

Thanks for the transfer and for the note here! You can find out which delivery list was used in a MassMessage by looking at the wikitext for the original message, which always ends with a hidden HTML-comment that links to the page used; in this case it was from User:SGill (WMF)/lists/WS VPs , which I think I've now fixed by copying from a working version elsewhere. I hope that helps. Quiddity (WMF) ( talk ) 20:26, 18 October 2023 (UTC) Reply
