Please do not cite Wikipedia on Wikipedia edit
...as you did in this edit. Brusquedandelion (talk) 20:53, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
- @Brusquedandelion:I apologize for not catching that during my pass through the article with AutoWikiBrowser (AWB). To be fair, that citation to French WP was already in the article before my edit. AWB just cleaned up the formatting of the ref but obviously had no rule about using WP as a citation. I always check and approve AWB's changes to articles so that's on me for not observing the problem and correcting it. Cheers, Mark Ironie (talk) 23:40, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
- I didn't realize I knew you from different accounts. Cheers, Mark Ironie (talk) 00:00, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
- I think there's been a misunderstanding; this is my only account.
- I used Wikiblame to find the edit and did not look at it for long enough to notice it was there before your edit as well. Apologies. Anyways, the issue is corrected. Brusquedandelion (talk) 00:09, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for correcting the issue. I didn't mean to suggest you have other accounts now or in the past. My apologies. Your edit history seemed familiar and similar to editors I've known in the past. Sorry. Cheers, Mark Ironie (talk) 19:47, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
Administrators' newsletter – May 2024 edit
News and updates for administrators from the past month (April 2024).
Guideline and policy news
- Phase I of the 2024 requests for adminship review has concluded. Several proposals have passed outright and will proceed to implementation, including creating a discussion-only period (3b) and administrator elections (13) on a trial basis. Other successful proposals, such as creating a reminder of civility norms (2), will undergo further refinement in Phase II. Proposals passed on a trial basis will be discussed in Phase II, after their trials conclude. Further details on specific proposals can be found in the full report.
Technical news
- Partial action blocks are now in effect on the English Wikipedia. This means that administrators have the ability to restrict users from certain actions, including uploading files, moving pages and files, creating new pages, and sending thanks. T280531
Arbitration
- The arbitration case Conflict of interest management has been closed.
Miscellaneous
- This may be a good time to reach out to potential nominees to ask if they would consider an RfA.
- A New Pages Patrol backlog drive is happening in May 2024 to reduce the number of unreviewed articles in the new pages feed. Currently, there is a backlog of over 15,000 articles awaiting review. Sign up here to participate!
- Voting for the Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee (U4C) election is open until 9 May 2024. Read the voting page on Meta-Wiki and cast your vote here!
