Administrators' newsletter – April 2020

News and updates for administrators from the past month (March 2020).

Guideline and policy news

  • There is an ongoing request for comment to streamline the source deprecation and blacklisting process.

Technical news

Arbitration

  • Following the banning of an editor by the WMF last year, the Arbitration Committee resolved to hold a Arbcom RfC regarding on-wiki harassment. A draft RfC has been posted at Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Anti-harassment RfC (Draft) and not open to comments from the community yet. Interested editors can comment on the RfC itself on its talk page.

Miscellaneous

  • The WMF has begun a pilot report of the pages most visited through various social media platforms to help with anti-vandalism and anti-disinformation efforts. The report is updated daily and will be available through the end of May.

2018 FIFA World Cup

DYK for 2020 Gibraltar Open

On 12 April 2020, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article 2020 Gibraltar Open, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that some snooker matches at the 2020 Gibraltar Open were played without a referee? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/2020 Gibraltar Open. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, 2020 Gibraltar Open), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Trouted

Whack!

You've been whacked with a wet trout.

Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know that you did something silly.

You have been trouted for: not knowing that the personal pronoun its (meaning "belonging to it") does not have an apostrophe! See this diff... it's (with apostrophe) always stands for it is or it has. No offence and sorry for being utterly pedantic but as this is my personal bugbear, I just had to mention it! BTW, thanks for jumping in and helping me with the 2014 WSC, I've been looking up the matches that the BBC are showing this week. This afternoon's will be a good one!

Glitch

Lee. You've generated lots of links to 1999–00 snooker season when you meant 1999–2000 snooker season. Could create a redirect but probably better to change them. Nigej (talk) 06:52, 27 April 2020 (UTC)

Yeah, I saw about half way through! I was going to run it through AWB to fix it the next chance I get. Realistically, a cheap redirect would be suitable for this one as well. Thanks for letting me know! Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 08:01, 27 April 2020 (UTC)

Template:World Women's Snooker Championship

Hi, thanks for creating this. I've added in some related articles to the template, could you review that and amend as required please? I think I'll add in the champion's names, unless you already have that underway. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 13:04, 17 April 2020 (UTC)

Hi BennyOnTheLoose - I might play around with the formatting, but it's best to get these things made. I'd suggest making a separate template for winners, similar to how I've handled Template:World pool champions and Template:World pool championship as you are talking about two different things.

League table coding for play-off articles

Hi Lee, thanks for reviewing one of those play-off articles at GAN. I'll get to the majority of the points in due course but I can't quite come up with a scheme to address your concern over the placement of the league table. I fiddled a little and the best I could come up with was this which is sub-optimal. The problem is that the table is just considered part of the prose which then crashes against the side of the infobox. There doesn't seem to be a way of coding it to sit below the infobox. Any thoughts on what you'd prefer and how to code it? The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 12:56, 29 April 2020 (UTC)

On my screen that still clashes with the infobox. It will be dependent on horizontal resolution. The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 13:10, 29 April 2020 (UTC)
Indeed, I suspect it'll depend on the screen size/resolution. Perhaps left align the table, or as a surprise, you could do some funky stuff and attach it to the infobox itself. I suspect WP:FOOTY might be a better location, as I can't think of a technical way to do this for all screen sizes (although, on a bigger screen, it's less important.)
