Picking a WMFer out of a hat[edit]

The CSS that makes the wikitext <div id="hideTOCnumbers">__TOC__</div> in Terms of use and Wikimedia Foundation Legal department/2023 ToU updates/Proposed update function is going to be removed soon (from MediaWiki:Common.css).

The wikitext can be replaced with {{nonumtoc}}__TOC__ for the same effect (removing the TOC numbers) on this wiki. On Some Other Wikis e.g. foundation.wikimedia.org, you would need to copy the relevant templates (which would be {{nonumtoc}} and {{nonumtoc/styles.css}}).

I'd like to make the change directly, but the proposed update page is being watched closely right now and I see at least one "don't do that" in the page history. I also have a suspicion the actual draft is being managed privately offwiki anyway, so there's no guarantee my change would make it into that copy... and then I'd be bothering a WMFer about that instead :).

Can I get some assistance? Izno (talk) 05:00, 9 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the heads-up. During the workday, I'll let everyone know so we can update the Wikitext in our private version. I might have questions, gulp! :P SSpalding (WMF) (talk) 05:57, 9 March 2023 (UTC)Reply
Confirming that we have taken care of this for the next draft. Thanks again @Izno SSpalding (WMF) (talk) 15:29, 13 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

Well played[edit]
