How we will see unregistered users

Hi!

You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.

When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.

Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.

If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.

We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.

Thank you. /Johan (WMF)

ANI LTA harassment

Hey, Wizzito here. Sadly, this LTA is on a highly dynamic T-Mobile /40 range that hops rapidly: 2607:FB91:1100:0:0:0:0:0/40 (block range · block log (global) · WHOIS (partial)). Looks like a /42 block didn't help. wizzito | say hello! 16:40, 27 January 2022 (UTC)

49.204.211.84 needs a longer block

Hi. Since you previously blocked this user, I thought I'd let you know that their persistent violations of Wikipedia policy has continued, and that they've ignored an entire talk page of repeated warnings, the most recent of which I just noted on their talk page. I think they could use a longer block. Thanks. Nightscream (talk) 16:14, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

Hello, Jauerback,

Apparently, you gave this editor a username block right before their username was changed from representing a company, User:Pier Insurance, to representing an individual. They haven't requested to be unblocked but I noticed the name change that came right after the block so I thought I'd let you know. Thanks. Liz Read! Talk! 06:07, 15 March 2022 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Category:Wikipedia requested photographs in Williamson County, Illinois indicating that it is currently empty, and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion. If it remains empty for seven days or more, it may be deleted under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion".

For this block [8]; I was sitting down to ask Drmies or ToBeFree for their assistance when I noticed your action. I think there's a longer rangeblock merited, given not only the persistent addition/changing of unsourced content, but the repeated contentiousness and insulting of other editors. Based on behavior, I'm guessing this was once a registered and now blocked account, who's continuing along the same path. If they return from the block for more of the same, I'll either drop you a line or put together something for ANI. Thanks again, 2601:188:180:B8E0:0:0:0:3597 (talk) 21:12, 7 June 2022 (UTC)

Automated Retail

So, it’s fine for Zoom systems and Redbox, but not for a company that’s been doing it for over a decade? Happy to adjust my contribution as you see fit. 208.102.168.243 (talk) 03:15, 2 July 2022 (UTC)

Don't edit if you are just planning on promoting your company. Jauerbackdude?/dude. 03:18, 2 July 2022 (UTC)

You didn’t answer my question. This isn’t my company. Simply trying to add some context to a page by citing a decade-old source from what is obviously a leader in the industry. If you could provide an alternate way to approach this, I would be happy to follow your advice. I looked at the previous edits and saw that you marked Signify as spam, which is accurate, but their image remains on the page. The company I referenced in my edit is not even included in the text. Only the notes. The sole purpose of my edit was to add context to a page with limited content that clearly promotes only two businesses in a booming international industry. Would media coverage sources be preferable? I’m obviously new to Wikipedia edits and would appreciate any tips you’re willing to offer. Thanks for your help. Wilcohum (talk) 04:22, 2 July 2022 (UTC)

Wilcohum, you need to find a reliable source (e.g. news article, book, journal, etc.) that states the information that you wish to add. Linking to a company's webpage and pretending that it's a "source" is considered spam. Jauerbackdude?/dude. 14:52, 2 July 2022 (UTC)

James Caan

I'm wondering why you reverted 13 edits to the James Caan article, after his family had announced his death on Caan's own Twitter account. I notice that you didn't restore these edits later (for example, changing "he describes himself" to "he described himself"), instead, leaving it to other editors to re-do the work. Seems like a waste of everyone's time.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding WP:TWITTER, but the family's announcement didn't involve a third party (it involved the holder of the account himself), and the death of an octogenarian is not an extraordinary claim. Twitter therefore seems to be a reliable source in this case.

In the future, please think twice before reverting other people's work, thank you. -Jordgette [talk] 23:02, 7 July 2022 (UTC)

At the time, there were no reliable sources stating that he had died; only the Twitter account. Per WP:BLP, I would rather err on the side of caution, especially with the death of an individual. So, unfortunately, worrying about "other people's work" is not a concern with a potential BLP violation. Jauerbackdude?/dude. 01:36, 8 July 2022 (UTC)

Your welcome is appreciated, sorry to ask you so quickly for help. What do I do with a problem user or editor? Could you assist?Extraordinary2 (talk) 23:37, 22 September 2022 (UTC)

It looks like you are discussing the issue on the article's talk page. You need to continue to do that and build a consensus. Jauerbackdude?/dude. 13:52, 23 September 2022 (UTC)
Impossible, the user is not even replying to discussion or attempts at it. On top of that they delete talk posts.Extraordinary2 (talk) 04:34, 24 September 2022 (UTC)
No, that's not what I meant. You don't discuss changes to an article on a user's talk page. You utilized the talk page of the article itself. It looks like you're at least engaging in discussion there. That's where you need to build a consensus for whatever changes you wish to make. Jauerbackdude?/dude. 18:06, 24 September 2022 (UTC)
The user does not engage. That means any attempt to discuss something with them is not doable. You referred to an article's talk page; there is no discussion. I sense you don't get involved however it would be helpful.Extraordinary2 (talk) 07:16, 27 September 2022 (UTC)
Maybe I'm not understanding which article you are referring to. I assumed it was the Andor (TV series) article. If so, you started a discussion on the talk page. Apparently, no one else is participating in the discussion at this point. That's probably a sign that no one is interested and you probably won't be able to establish consensus for your changes. Therefore, you should probably just let it go. Jauerbackdude?/dude. 15:57, 29 September 2022 (UTC)

  • A new preference named "Enable limited width mode" has been added to the Vector 2022 skin. The preference is also shown as a toggle on every page if your monitor is 1600 pixels or wider. When disabled it removes the whitespace added by Vector 2022 on the left and right of the page content. Disabling this preference has the same effect as enabling the wide-vector-2022 gadget.
