Admin on mission...
Unofficial anagram of ANI

Remove restriction on
Ali Mansour
name.

Ali Mansour is a professional basketball player plays for Lebanon national team, and when I tried to create a draft it says that this name is restricted by admins, can I get help? — Preceding unsigned comment added by بندر الرواشدة (talkcontribs) 23:04, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It looks like the previous problematic creations were for an actor, not a basketball player. —C.Fred (talk) 23:07, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
It was protected because there was a mercenary farm trying to force an article about the actor to exist; they'd previously tried to hijack the redirect to the same ends (hence why it's protected). —Jéské Couriano v^_^v a little blue Bori 23:34, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Not just protected; we ended up having to blacklist anything similar to the name.

Bug in first section link

As you can see in the image, the "Open tasks" section link overlaps with archives navbox and is displayed vertically in mobile web view.

WP:ANI which has a similar setup does not have this problem. What can be the reason for this? ಮಲ್ನಾಡಾಚ್ ಕೊಂಕ್ಣೊ (talk) 09:17, 8 June 2022 (UTC)[reply

I think this is because of the "Centralized discussion". Let me add a {{clear}} template and see how it goes. CactiStaccingCrane (talk) 12:35, 9 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
ಮಲ್ನಾಡಾಚ್ ಕೊಂಕ್ಣೊ, done and fixed. What do you think? CactiStaccingCrane (talk) 12:49, 9 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Cent template and archive navbox are displayed inside "Open tasks" section now, I don't think that's desirable. That section is not where someone would expect an archive box to be present in. Sections are collapsed by default, so most people wouldn't know it is there. ಮಲ್ನಾಡಾಚ್ ಕೊಂಕ್ಣೊ (talk) 13:39, 9 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
This is rather tough, because during my test, both boxes cause the section names to go vertical. I think someone else has a better idea though. CactiStaccingCrane (talk) 02:26, 10 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
