Perms
Did you mean to give yourself all those perms indefinitely? – 2804:F14:80B7:8201:90E7:C193:821D:E8C2 (talk) 09:17, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

Oracle not updating
Just wanted to ping you to let you know it appears the Oracle for Deletion page has stopped updating as of Feb 14th. Is this something that is in the works to be fixed? This information is very insightful and useful for the community, so it'd be great to see this data source continue. Thank you for all that you've done to create and maintain this. 74.109.236.228 (talk) 12:55, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
- I noticed it had stopped updating when the Toolforge grid was deprecated -- what it needs is just to be SSHed into and migrated over to the new Kubernetes thing -- but while I was preparing to do this, I also noticed that nobody had said anything about it stopping, so I figured it might just not be worth the effort. Now that somebody has said something, I will go try to do something about it... jp×g🗯️ 18:40, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
Tech News: 2024-21
Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.
Recent changes
- The Nuke feature, which enables administrators to mass delete pages, will now correctly delete pages which were moved to another title. [1]
- New changes have been made to the UploadWizard in Wikimedia Commons: the overall layout has been improved, by following new styling and spacing for the form and its fields; the headers and helper text for each of the fields was changed; the Caption field is now a required field, and there is an option for users to copy their caption into the media description. [2][3]
Changes later this week
The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 21 May. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 22 May. It will be on all wikis from 23 May (calendar). [4][5]
The HTML used to render all headings is being changed to improve accessibility. It will change on 22 May in some skins (Timeless, Modern, CologneBlue, Nostalgia, and Monobook). Please test gadgets on your wiki on these skins and report any related problems so that they can be resolved before this change is made in all other skins. The developers are also considering the introduction of a Gadget API for adding buttons to section titles if that would be helpful to tool creators, and would appreciate any input you have on that.

Nomination for deletion of Template:Dolorem ipsum/pb-cond
Template:Dolorem ipsum/pb-cond and others have been nominated for deletion. You are invited to comment on the discussion at the entry on the Templates for discussion page. --Gonnym (talk) 09:17, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
- I said this at the TfD, but I'd be happy to speedy-delete those if they've been replaced by the module (it's just housekeeping at that point -- MediaWiki just makes it a pain in the ass to merge files). jp×g🗯️ 09:19, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
Wikiproject Medicine May 2024 Newsletter
- Issue 22—May 2024
- WikiProject Medicine Newsletter
Hello all. Another irregular edition of the newsletter. I was inspired to collect this after seeing several medicine-interested editors nominate their first

WP:MED News
- Wikipedia:Good article reassessment is back in business, with a new process and new coordinators. If you see medicine-related GAs that may no longer meet the GA criteria, feel free to nominate them for attention/reassessment (please, not too many at once, lest we get overwhelmed). I'll incorporate them into the listings above.
- Maintenance category of the month: Articles with topics of unclear notability (I've listed just the 36 that start with "A"; there are 398 total).
- Note for the curious: 24,211 of the 57,554 articles (42%) tagged as part of WP:MED have some maintenance tag.
Newsletter ideas, comments, and criticisms welcome here.
You are receiving this because you added your name to the WikiProject Medicine mailing list. If you no longer wish to receive the newsletter, please remove your name.

Tech News: 2024-22
Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.
Recent changes
- Several bugs related to the latest updates to the UploadWizard on Wikimedia Commons have been fixed. For more information, see T365107 and T365119.
- In March 2024 a new addPortlet API was added to allow gadgets to create new portlets (menus) in the skin. In certain skins this can be used to create dropdowns. Gadget developers are invited to try it and give feedback.
- Some CSS in the Minerva skin has been removed to enable easier community configuration. Interface editors should check the rendering on mobile devices for aspects related to the classes:
.collapsible,.multicol,.reflist,.coordinates,.topicon. Further details are available on replacement CSS if it is needed.
Changes later this week
- The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 28 May. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 29 May. It will be on all wikis from 30 May (calendar). [6][7]
- When you visit a wiki where you don't yet have a local account, local rules such as edit filters can sometimes prevent your account from being created. Starting this week, MediaWiki takes your global rights into account when evaluating whether you can override such local rules. [8]

Question about sourcing with this diff
You (IMO correctly) added this to my edit. I was curious about what you would consider a sufficient RS here, does it need to be a proper article, or can I just cite a YouTube Video from him? Or do we just need a Mandy-ish statement? FortunateSons (talk) 18:18, 28 May 2024 (UTC)

ADL RfC FYI
For what it’s worth, the ADL RfC has been listed at WP:Closure requests, and the archiving was noted there. Given the size of the discussion, I was under the impression that it was best to leave it in the archive until a closer was ready to publish their closure signed, Rosguill talk 12:07, 30 May 2024 (UTC)
- Now that you mention it, that does seem like it could bring some benefit (e.g. no more comments to look over). I figured it was just an error, since it was archived by the bot and not a person. Do you think it would be smart to just put a box around it like:
| This discussion is awaiting closure. |

| The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it. |
