Hi Rahil1610, I have now replied on your talk page ([1]). ~ ToBeFree (talk) 14:29, 28 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

all articles related to the Russo Ukrainian war extended protected

I have several problems related to this article : The first of them is : there is an extended protection . Second: the article about the invasion itself is not updated. please remove the protection . And why is the article about the invasion not updated ? Kiriuxa2002 (talk) 10:42, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Kiriuxa2002, welcome to a community where your individual wishes are not always fulfilled by others, and where consensus is sometimes against your favor. Please find something else to edit about; the Task Center and the community portal contain ideas. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 11:41, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Tech News: 2023-22

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Recent changes

Citations can once again be added automatically from ISBNs, thanks to Zotero's ISBN searches. The current data sources are the Library of Congress (United States), the Bibliothèque nationale de France (French National Library), and K10plus ISBN (German repository). Additional data source searches can be proposed to Zotero. The ISBN labels in the VisualEditor Automatic tab will reappear later this week. [2]
The page Special:EditWatchlist now has "Check all" options to select all the pages within a namespace. This feature request was voted #161 in the 2023 Community Wishlist Survey. [3]

Problems

For a few days earlier this month, the "Add interlanguage link" item in the Tools menu did not work properly. This has now been fixed. [4]

Changes later this week

The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 30 May. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 31 May. It will be on all wikis from 1 June (calendar).
VisualEditor will be switched to a new backend on small and medium wikis this week. Large wikis will follow in the coming weeks. This is part of the effort to move Parsoid into MediaWiki core. The change should have no noticeable effect on users, but if you experience any slow loading or other strangeness when using VisualEditor, please report it on the phabricator ticket linked here. [5]

So confused

Hello, thanks for your reply on my talk page. It seems I just don't understand the rules. Some people say you shouldn't be called a sockpuppet without a WP:SPI I think and then I read this Bishonen talk contribs‎ m 15,211 bytes 0‎ Changed protection settings for "Adam Leitman Bailey": Persistent sockpuppetry: the semiprotection isn't working very well against some obvious sock puppetry. ([Edit=Require extended confirmed access] (indefinite) [Move=Require extended confirmed access] (indefinite))

I do want to drop the matter but as you are the only person that has been kind then I thought I'd show you in the hope you could clarify things.
