Wikimedia Foundation Governance Wiki Babel
Hello! Bonjour! ¡Hola!
The
Wikimedia Foundation Governance Wiki Babel
serves as a place where Wikimedia volunteers can discuss this site and alert
administrators
as needed.
As unregistered users cannot edit or translate anything and registered users only have ablity to edit talk pages and user pages, and translating content, also creating an account is disabled. Can this wiki be considered "semi-fishbowl"?

There seems to be a problem with the section titles for translations of this page. --

Hi, I have been cleaning up some vandalism in my capacity as a global sysop. Since I am not a translation admin here, I am not able to delete translated pages (like
Agenda:2016-04-22/bm
, not a translation). Therefore I request translation administrator rights according to the
Wikimedia:Accounts policy
. Thanks, --

In
Special:Diff/361758
LincolnBot changed the "cat_prefix" parameter to "cat prefix" in
Template:Decade years navbox
. Note "cat_suffix" was not changed. By changing the parameter,
Template:DMCA category by year
(which uses the "cat_prefix" parameter) no longer links to the correct categories. For example, as of 27 March 2024 if you go to
Category:DMCA 2023
you'll see that in the DMCA category by year nav box that "2022" no longer links to
Category:DMCA 2022
, it instead is linking to
Category:2022
. This is because the template
Template:Decade years navbox
is no longer recognizing the prefix passed in by
Template:DMCA category by year
. ?

If I read the
en.wikipedia TfD discussion
correctly, the function of this module has replaced by
strict
library of
Scribunto extension
, and as it has no
linked-in pages
, do we really need a reason to keep it?

I would like to propose to add the autopatrol user right to the editor user group because I think we do not need to patrol edits from approved staff accounts.

- That is a reasonable idea. Curious what @
Martin Urbanec (WMF)
thinks - but I think it is worth considering and doing if technically reasonable/possible. --

I think that makes a lot of sense! After a discussion among the Core Administrators team, I went ahead and implemented the change.
