Administrators' newsletter – April 2017

News and updates for administrators from the past month (March 2017).

Guideline and policy news

  • Following a discussion on the backlog of unpatrolled files, consensus was found to create a new user right for autopatrolling file uploads. Implementation progress can be tracked on Phabricator.
  • The BLPPROD grandfather clause, which stated that unreferenced biographies of living persons were only eligible for proposed deletion if they were created after March 18, 2010, has been removed following an RfC.
  • An RfC has closed with consensus to allow proposed deletion of files. The implementation process is ongoing.
  • After an unsuccessful proposal to automatically grant IP block exemption, consensus was found to relax the criteria for granting the user right from needing it to wanting it.

Technical news

  • After a recent RfC, moved pages will soon be featured in a queue similar to Special:NewPagesFeed and require patrolling. Moves by administrators, page movers, and autopatrolled editors will be automatically marked as patrolled.
  • Cookie blocks have been deployed. This extends the current autoblock system by setting a cookie for each block, which will then autoblock the user if they switch accounts, even under a new IP.

Orphaned non-free image File:Pheuntsholing FC Logo.png

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Pheuntsholing FC Logo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:58, 5 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Some lame curiosity....

Hi, how did you manage to delete the subject of this draft as a hoax 2 years back? Gotcha say the hoax looks somewhat notable now!What's your opinion?Cheers!Winged Blades Godric 11:05, 6 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, the article was about a "different" Jonathan Montgomery. In this case, a made up Samoan footballer rather than an academic in this instance. Fenix down (talk) 11:42, 6 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

That's no problem, but do be aware please that another admin might well have blocked you too for move warring if they hadn't been aware of the previous discussion about the common name at WT:FOOTY. Fenix down (talk) 07:45, 7 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
