Wikipedia:Interface administrators' noticeboard

Welcome to the interface administrators' noticeboard
This is the interface administrator noticeboard, for discussion of interface administrators and coordination of edits to the interface. Currently only interface administrators can undelete JS/CSS pages, if you have an uncontroversial undelete or deleted version retrieval request, please list it below. Any administrator can delete JS/CSS/JSON pages, for speedy deletions just use a CSD template on the page or its talk page. Individual requests for edits to interface or user JavaScript/CSS pages should continue to be made on their respective talk pages.

Redlinked category

Special:WantedCategories has, not for the first time, a redlinked category populated solely by a user's .js settings page. The category is Category:New Pages — but obviously .js pages aren't supposed to be categorized at all, and there'd be no call for "creating" that category to serve any other purpose. So the category needs to come off the page, but I don't have the necessary privileges to edit other people's .js pages, and the user is a brand-new editor who so far has only edited their own .js and .css pages with absolutely no edits to anything else.

So could somebody who does have the necessary privileges remove the category from the page? Thanks. Bearcat (talk) 15:16, 16 October 2024 (UTC)

Category redirect populated by awkward pages

Can someone go through the category redirect Category:LGBT+ Wikipedians and fix the js and css pages in it (or transcluded on the entries) so they are now in Category:LGBTQ+ Wikipedians? Thanks in advance. Timrollpickering (talk) 17:47, 16 October 2024 (UTC)

Fixed. Izno (talk) 17:55, 16 October 2024 (UTC)

I ask for help

Hello, dear administrators! I have been writing and editing in the Russian-language section of Wikipedia for almost 4 years. I am learning English and I want to take part in the work in the English-language section. I'm faced with the fact that I can't save edits, even asking for help or asking a question here is very problematic. The service does not allow me to save edits. I have never used proxies or other anonymizers. In the Russian-language section, I have extended rights, we call it Patrolling. The statistics for my account are here. I haven't been able to send this message for 24 hours. Please remove the restrictions from me. With respect, Znatokgoroda77 (talk) 06:36, 2 November 2024 (UTC)

@Znatokgoroda77. What error message are you getting when you try to save an edit? –Novem Linguae (talk) 06:55, 2 November 2024 (UTC)

You've exceeded your rate limit. Please wait some time and try again. Znatokgoroda77 (talk) 10:10, 2 November 2024 (UTC)

I'm on mobile right now so I can't easily look up your exact rate limit, but a rate limit error means that you're trying to make too many edits per minute. The solution to this problem may be just waiting one minute when you receive this error message, and then making your edit after the one minute. –Novem Linguae (talk) 11:03, 2 November 2024 (UTC)

Znatokgoroda77, you can check your rate limits by visiting this API link. – DreamRimmer (talk) 11:36, 2 November 2024 (UTC)

For example, if your rate limit is {"edit":{"user":{"hits":90,"seconds":60}}}, that means you can make up to 90 edits in a minute. – DreamRimmer (talk) 11:41, 2 November 2024 (UTC)

OK, I'm back at a computer. According to this, it should be 8 edits per minute for a new user. I'm scratching my head at how this user could be hitting the rate limit with such a low, spaced out edit count. –Novem Linguae (talk) 11:46, 2 November 2024 (UTC)

If you run into the same issue again, please take a screenshot and upload it to https://postimages.org/. Just share the link here, and we'll be glad to help you fix it. – DreamRimmer (talk) 11:57, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
