- Thanks for adding a comment at Talk:Laura Winter, I didn't fully know how to deal with it - just came across randomly from a template error category page :) FifthFive (talk) 00:03, 14 September 2024 (UTC)
A goat for you!
[edit]
You beat me to vandalism, twice! You may want to consider applying for WP:ROLLBACK when you've been fighting vandals for a month. Be sure you are warning people (though I'm sure you are). Let me know if you have any questions!

How the heck do you spot vandalism so quickly?
[edit]Exactly what the title says. I've been looking out for vandalism by watching a bot spit stuff out into an IRC channel and reviewing the suspicious looking ones, but a lot of the time I find that you've beaten me to it! How do you do it? Sirocco745 (talk) 03:43, 19 September 2024 (UTC)
- I have one tab with recent changes (live updates enabled), and ctrl+click to open suspicious diffs in new tabs before reviewing. I then use Wikipedia:Ultraviolet to revert and warn with the right reason if needed :) FifthFive (talk) 03:47, 19 September 2024 (UTC)
- Cool, I'll check that out a bit later :D Sirocco745 (talk) 03:50, 19 September 2024 (UTC)
A barnstar for you!

An message for you!
[edit]Please do not revert the information i removed from the article of [[[2025]] until someone added the motorsports related events to the "events" of 2025 in next year. 2409:4073:492:6479:39BF:92A8:7618:929C (talk) 14:07, 10 October 2024 (UTC)
- I noticed and reverted my revert. Sorry about that. FifthFive (talk) 14:08, 10 October 2024 (UTC)
- in next year, will you add these information to this article? On "events" if possible? Will you forgot to do that?
- Is this unacceptable? 2409:4073:492:6479:39BF:92A8:7618:929C (talk) 14:09, 10 October 2024 (UTC)
- What do you mean? FifthFive (talk) 14:11, 10 October 2024 (UTC)
- My English is not good, I'm sorry I don't know how to explain. 2409:4073:492:6479:39BF:92A8:7618:929C (talk) 14:15, 10 October 2024 (UTC)
- In the "events" of 2025 article, will you add name of the driver and the team as winner of a motorsport?.
- For a better example: in 2022 FIFA World Cup, Argentina is shown as winning the world cup in the "events" of 2022 article.
- Most people from europe, may don't understand my English because it's not good, but if you're native speaker of English language then I'm sure you will understand this message 2409:4073:492:6479:39BF:92A8:7618:929C (talk) 14:19, 10 October 2024 (UTC)
- No response? I think you didn't understand everything. I'm going bye and thanks for your message 2409:4073:492:6479:39BF:92A8:7618:929C (talk) 14:24, 10 October 2024 (UTC)
- I'm a volunteer, and have other things going on. I can get back to this later today. FifthFive (talk) 14:55, 10 October 2024 (UTC)
- I set a reminder, though I might not be around on Wikipedia then :-) FifthFive (talk) 19:29, 10 October 2024 (UTC)

Tech News: 2024-42
[edit]Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.
Updates for editors
- The Structured Discussion extension (also known as Flow) is starting to be removed. This extension is unmaintained and causes issues. It will be replaced by DiscussionTools, which is used on any regular talk page. A first set of wikis are being contacted. These wikis are invited to stop using Flow, and to move all Flow boards to sub-pages, as archives. At these wikis, a script will move all Flow pages that aren't a sub-page to a sub-page automatically, starting on 22 October 2024. On 28 October 2024, all Flow boards at these wikis will be set in read-only mode. [1][2]
- WMF's Search Platform team is working on making it easier for readers to perform text searches in their language. A change last week on over 30 languages makes it easier to find words with accents and other diacritics. This applies to both full-text search and to types of advanced search such as the hastemplate and incategory keywords. More technical details (including a few other minor search upgrades) are available. [3]
- View all 20 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week. For example, EditCheck was installed at Russian Wikipedia, and fixes were made for some missing user interface styles.
Updates for technical contributors
- Editors who use the Toolforge tool Earwig's Copyright Violation Detector will now be required to log in with their Wikimedia account before running checks using the "search engine" option. This change is needed to help prevent external bots from misusing the system. Thanks to Chlod for these improvements. [4]
- Phabricator users can create tickets and add comments on existing tickets via Email again. Sending email to Phabricator has been fixed. [5]
Some HTML elements in the interface are now wrapped with a <bdi>element, to make our HTML output more aligned with Web standards. More changes like this will be coming in future weeks. This change might break some tools that rely on the previous HTML structure of the interface. Note that relying on the HTML structure of the interface is not recommended and might break at any time. [6]
