New section text, is this is a placeholder?

@Alexis Jazz: hello, when I tried to add a new section at a user talk page a notice came up that read:

"Please note that all contributions to Wikimedia Commons are considered to be released under the $2 (see $1 for details). If you do not want your writing to be edited mercilessly and redistributed at will, then do not submit it here. You are also promising us that you wrote this yourself, or copied it from a public domain or similar free resource.

Do not submit copyrighted work without permission!"

Are the "$1" and "$2" placeholders or did you genuinely forget to add something there? --Donald Trung (talk) 20:44, 20 March 2022 (UTC)

  • Thanks, I made some changes to where the tosnagtext is stored and how it is obtained. Must have nicked something. Aaaaaand  Done. This text comes from MediaWiki:Copyrightwarning btw, the $1 and $2 would only be seen on wikis that use the default message, like c:MediaWiki:Copyrightwarning. Not on enwiki. — Alexis Jazz (talk or ping me) 21:28, 20 March 2022 (UTC)

Wikipedia translation of the week: 2022-12

The winner this Translation of the week is

Please be bold and help translate this article!

Farn-Sasan was the last king of the Indo-Parthian Kingdom, ruling the region of Sakastan approximately from 210 to 226. Literary sources makes no mention of him, and he is only known through the coins he issued. He was defeated in 226 by the Sasanian ruler Ardashir I (r. 224–242), which marked the end of Indo-Parthian rule.

Wikipedia translation of the week: 2022-13

The winner this Translation of the week is

Please be bold and help translate this article!

Dummy tanks superficially resemble real tanks and are often deployed as a means of military deception in the absence of real tanks. Early designs included wooden shells and inflatable props that could fool enemy intelligence; they were fragile and only believable from a distance. Modern designs are more advanced and can imitate heat signatures, making them more effective illusions.

Wikidata weekly summary #514

Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.
  • Discussions
    • New requests for permissions/Bot: APSbot 4: Task/s: Regularly create organizations from the Research Organization Registry (ROR - https://ror.org/) that are missing in Wikidata.
  • Tool of the week
    • Kyrksok.se is an app about Swedish churches based on Wikidata.
    • QAnswer is a question answering system based on Wikidata and other projects. Who was the first to create liquid helium? Try it!
  • Development
    • Lexicographical data: Continued work on the new Special:NewLexeme page and focused on displaying sensible error messages if an error occurs during Lexeme creation. We're also working on adding a dropdown for the language variant.
    • REST API: Continued work on conditional requests and authorization
    • Made use of the new fields added in the wbsearchentities API and added language information to the markup of entity searches that you see when editing a statement or searching with the little searchbox at the top of the page on Wikidata. Now these search results should make a bit more sense to people who use screen readers.
