Administrators' newsletter – August 2018
News and updates for administrators from the past month (July 2018).
- After a discussion at Meta, a new user group called "interface administrators" (formerly "technical administrator") has been created. Come the end of August, interface admins will be the only users able to edit site-wide JavaScript and CSS pages like MediaWiki:Common.js and MediaWiki:Common.css, or edit other user's personal JavaScript and CSS. The intention is to improve security and privacy by reducing the number of accounts which could be used to compromise the site or another user's account through malicious code. The new user group can be assigned and revoked by bureaucrats. Discussion is ongoing to establish details for implementing the group on the English Wikipedia.
- Following a request for comment, the WP:SISTER style guideline now states that in the mainspace, interwiki links to Wikinews should only be made as per the external links guideline. This generally means that within the body of an article, you should not link to Wikinews about a particular event that is only a part of the larger topic. Wikinews links in "external links" sections can be used where helpful, but not automatically if an equivalent article from a reliable news outlet could be linked in the same manner.
- The WMF Anti-Harassment Tools team is seeking input on the second set of wireframes for the Special:Block redesign that will introduce partial blocks. The new functionality will allow you to block a user from editing a specific set of pages, pages in a category, a namespace, and for specific actions such as moving pages and uploading files.

Me Too movement protection
Hello! Could you maybe change the protection level of the Me Too movement to pending changes protection? At least to me, it seems like there isn't an obscenely high rate of vandalism, but instead, there are occasionally helpful edits by IPs and newer users. Thus, my reason for requesting that you change the protection status. Thanks! RileyBugz私に叫ぼう私の編集 20:48, 20 July 2018 (UTC)
- All I'm seeing is a bunch of trolling, opinioning, and nonsense, and little to nothing useful, making PC a total waste of everyone's time. Courcelles (talk) 22:39, 20 July 2018 (UTC)

Revdel?
In this diff and this diff, there's an entire copy-pasted essay.

Ridiculous cn tags
Sorry about the "ridiculous" cn tags. User:MX asked me to help with the table syntax of adding another column for source - then I used the CN tags so that he/she knows where to add the sources. HaEr48 (talk) 20:49, 3 August 2018 (UTC)
- Oh... no worries, I fixed them, but the information was already cited in the prose, which led to me feeling a little frustrated that someone had stuck some tags in. I see why you added them now, apologies, HaEr48. Courcelles (talk) 20:52, 3 August 2018 (UTC)
