Steward requests/Miscellaneous
- If the wiki does have active administrators, file the request with one of them.
- If the wiki has an active editor community, any potentially controversial action (deletion of actual content, edit to a protected page, renaming of a protected page, etc.) should receive consensus from the wiki community before being requested here, and a link should be provided to that consensus in the request.
- For global lock/block requests, file a request at Steward requests/Global.
- For non-controversial deletion requests such as empty page, simple spam or vandalism, and non-controversial or emergency requests to block vandals, spammers or other malicious users, you may use global sysop requests instead.
- If a consensus is considered required to act, similar principles apply as expressed at Steward requests/Permissions/Minimum voting requirements, and can be used for guidance to how and what should be done at small and medium communities to gain a consensus.
To add a new request, create a new section header at the bottom of the "Manual requests" section using the format below:
=== Very brief description of request here === {{Status|In progress}} Give details about your request here. --~~~~
It is helpful if you can provide a link to the wiki (or the specific page on the wiki) in question, either in the header or in the body of your request.
When reporting cross-wiki vandalism, the following template calls can be used to link to a user's contributions across all Wikimedia content wikis (these are for logged in users and non-logged-in users, respectively):
* {{sultool|Username}}
* {{luxotool|IP.address}}
Template {{LockHide}} can also be used in appropriate cases.
To request approval of OAuth consumers please use {{oauthapprequest}}
(see the documentation before using).
Old requests are archived by the date of their last comment.

- @Robin van der Vliet: As these works have been there for years (2012), they should at least have the semblance of a deletion discussion with whatever community may be there, and for at least a month so allowing suitable opportunity for comment. Though it will be a forlorn hope, please ping the contributor. — billinghurst sDrewth 15:34, 31 January 2019 (UTC)
- I informed the creator of most of those pages here, but I don't really see what we should discuss. The pages constitute a clear copyright violation. Robin van der Vliet (talk) (contribs) 15:42, 31 January 2019 (UTC)
- They have been there six years, waiting through a discussion is not problematic. The community should be given the right to have that discussion. It allows a local record to exist for others to see, it educates, it informs and allows a community to be a community. It allows a local permalink to be used on any deletion, and a clear authority for people to act to delete. What is so urgent or imperative that a discussion cannot be held. — billinghurst sDrewth 23:10, 31 January 2019 (UTC)
- Also noting that some of the works have been added by Frglz (talk · contribs), so please ping them in the discussion. Thanks.. — billinghurst sDrewth 23:13, 31 January 2019 (UTC)
- I also pinged them in the discussion. For me personally it's not a problem to wait, I am just accustomed to how copyvios work on Commons. When I nominate something there, it gets deleted in an instant without any discussion, that's why I was surprised when you said "at least a month". Robin van der Vliet (talk) (contribs) 02:15, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
- I moved the discussion to this page, because there are a lot more copyrighted works stored on the Esperanto Wikisource than I first noticed. I linked all I could find in that new page. Robin van der Vliet (talk) (contribs) 13:34, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks. Wikisources work differently to Commons, especially in sporadic editing. I am also unsure exactly the copyright rules they apply, it may not be Commons rules. Being pre-1923 works, if eoWS are working only to US copyright alone, they will not be copyright violations. This is why the community conversation should be taking place by those who know the local rules, rather than applying another wiki's rules. — billinghurst sDrewth 13:40, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- If they require the texts to be PD also in the first publication country, the texts should be moved do Multilingual Wikisource before deletion. Ankry (talk) 14:01, 2 February 2019 (UTC)

Cross-wiki vandals
On the advice of @Tomybrz:, it's enough to have my user pages & my talk user pages being vandalized because i'm a sysop on the french WP. I'm looking for where asking in one go the definitive Extended confirmed protection for all my pages on all projects. Thx for answering. OT38 (talk) 17:15, 15 June 2019 (UTC)
- Note for information : I talk with Billinghurst on irc, and he tell me to "get them to leave a note on my user talk page, I already have the bones of such a filter". Regards Tomybrz Bip Bip 17:22, 15 June 2019 (UTC)
- There is no such thing as "extended confirmed protection". Ruslik (talk) 20:39, 15 June 2019 (UTC)
- It exists only on the English Wikipedia. Vermont (talk) 22:36, 15 June 2019 (UTC)
- There is no such thing as "extended confirmed protection". Ruslik (talk) 20:39, 15 June 2019 (UTC)
Comment @OT38: As the conversation is here, let us continue it here. It sets some general conversation about similar cases, and looks to manage some of the precedence. As has been mentioned, we can write global abuse filters, though they do not cover the large wikis (frWP and enWS are different as they accepted global filters), and this can cover a range of actions from creation and editing with the flexibility of the components of abusefilters. That said we don't want to get overly complicated in the schema, it does allow us to utilise it for numerous cases of xwiki abuse and harassment.
We can do something like where page does not exist, do not allow non-autoconfirmed users to create a page. We can go stronger and apply for all wikis and write the pages into title blacklist and use the <autoconfirmed>
though that becomes a very big and unwieldy stick with little in the way of finesse.
This could become a can of worms and setting a lot of global work if many people started requesting it. So this could be something that may involve SPoore's anti-harassment project as a more holistic response to such problems. — billinghurst sDrewth 00:20, 16 June 2019 (UTC)
- billinghurst, letting you know that I saw your comment. Do you know if anyone has started a phabricator ticket describing the problem we're trying to solve and possible solutions? If not, we need to that to get it on the record. SPoore (WMF) Strategist, Community health initiative (talk) 15:20, 17 June 2019 (UTC)
- @SPoore (WMF): probably not been put into a phabricator ticket. When I have some time ... — billinghurst sDrewth 21:24, 17 June 2019 (UTC)
- @SPoore (WMF) and Billinghurst: This night my user page & my talk user page has been vandalized 85 times on 30 different projects. Besides ignoring it, what can I do now ? OT38 (talk) 04:06, 18 June 2019 (UTC)
- For now a global title blacklist that prevents non-autoconfirmed users from creating your user and user talk pages may be a solution (for the ones already created and you don't need, you may request to have them deleted too). This might be hard to do because the cross-language namespace could be tricky. -★- PlyrStar93 →Message me. ← 04:42, 18 June 2019 (UTC)
- @PlyrStar93: Where a global title blacklist can be requested ? Can this title blacklist be applied on user talk pages too ? OT38 (talk) 05:11, 18 June 2019 (UTC)
- Request at Talk:Title blacklist. The syntax I can think of would be something like
.*:OT38 <autoconfirmed>
to catch language variations on namespaces (including user and user talk namespaces) and the page name without namespace to be exactly "OT38" so there won't be much overkill. Existing pages can still be edited, but non-autoconfirmed users will not be able to create new page. -★- PlyrStar93 →Message me. ← 05:17, 18 June 2019 (UTC)

@OT38: I am going to hasten slowly on this construction if we are utilising title blacklist. This addition will stop editing and creation by non-autoconfirmed. If we have the issue on so many wikis, and you have existing user or user talk pages, then we need to manage those as well. Now, as I have hard-coded user/user talk, I am pretty certain that it will only function on default English language wikis, though let us test it for function prior to expanding. I do wish to minimise possible negative consequences of that big ugly stick. — billinghurst sDrewth 06:07, 18 June 2019 (UTC)
- @Billinghurst: Thx a lot for the time you give to my request. OT38 (talk) 19:53, 18 June 2019 (UTC)
- The magic word hasn't worked. Page creation by new users is still happening. Not sure if it's because the conversion only happens at Meta so page names in other wikis will have to match the converted result at Meta. -★- PlyrStar93 →Message me. ← 15:42, 29 June 2019 (UTC)
css request for yi.wikipedia
MediaWiki:common.css at Yi.wikipedia needs some modification so that references can be given non-numerical tags. Something like (but not sure whether this will actually do the job)
/* Make the list of references smaller */
/* Keep in sync with Template:Refbegin/styles.css */
ol.references,
div.reflist {
font-size: 90%; /* Default font-size */
margin-bottom: 0.5em;
}
div.reflist ol.references {
font-size: 100%; /* Reset font-size when nested in div.reflist */
margin-bottom: 0; /* Avoid double margin when nested in div.reflist */
list-style-type: inherit; /* Enable custom list style types */
}

- פוילישער, what do you mean by non-numerical tags? If by chance what you are trying to achieve is that what on w:yi:User:Base/References says 1.0, 1.1 would say a, b what you need to do is to edit w:yi:MediaWiki:Cite references link many format. See it in English Wikipedia for an example. See also the documentation.

Image cleanup on is.wikisource
Local discussion: is:s:Wikiheimild:Potturinn#Færa_myndir_á_Commons, is:s:User talk:Aris4444, is:s:User talk:Óli Gneisti
Please delete the following images from is.wikisource. They are all on Wikimedia Commons.
I have filed an proposal on the local village pump and on the user pages of all uploaders, which are only two in this case. No opposes where made in any of these three discussions during the two weeks that have passed since I posted them.
The files are all free and should be on Wikimedia Commons. I have allready uploaded those files who where not on Commons to Wikimedia Commons. I have made sure that all of the image links will still link to the correct image after the deletion. All of the files where uploaded to is.wikisource with limited or no information, but I have added information to some of the files.
Here is the list of files:

- As per my comment on SN, can this message be posted in am language? I really wish to engage the community to hear what they wants, given we banned one of their longstanding administrators as a global community (a decision I supported too if I remembered correctly) and the community is quite adverse to SWMT interference. I know there are vandals running free there, but I hope we will be seen as helping and not encroaching. Best Regards,--Cohaf (talk) 17:56, 26 August 2019 (UTC)
- Not really sure what community you're talking about, the only edits there in the last 30 days are by TE/CS banned socks, spammers, vanity spammers and a handful of non-constructive edits. I would think this would qualify under an emergency procedure at this point.Praxidicae (talk) 17:58, 26 August 2019 (UTC)
- Yeah, then I concur that this is sort of an emergency. I know this isn't here but can we define some sort of emergency proceedures to make it clearer when we can add and how (like how many days notification). If there is no objection locally to add, I will think that we leave them a message explaning why we are adding and how they could remove themselves from the system if needed. --Cohaf (talk) 18:10, 26 August 2019 (UTC)

ːThe Admin that was banned was a very big asset to Amharic wikipedia. I guess that is a moot point now. However, being part of that wikipedia, I support the participation of global Sysops to tidy it up. One thing I want to caution is, some of it is not vandalism. It is just people learning how to participate in wikipedia. Sysops need to be careful not to discourage those who want to contribute positively but are not yet skilled. It could be discouraging when the little you post that you can improve upon another day is deleted. Hgetnet (talk)
Semi-protection
There are problems on navbox u navbar templates in Zazaki Wikipedia, we should transfer English Wikipedia's mediaWiki messages to Zazaki Wikipedia.

Edit request for dk-wikimedia's common.css
The wiki for Wikimedia Denmark does not have any interface administrators, and in the interest of not cluttering up the common.css, I'm trying to use TemplateStyles instead when neccessary. However, I need to hide the header of the page Vedtægter, something which I believe can only be done on the Common.css-level. The following code block needs to be edited:
body.page-Forside h1.firstHeading { display:none; }
I think the following should do it, but if a Steward with CSS knowledge knows better, feel free to alter it as neccessary. If there's a way to do it without editing Common.css that would be fine as well, but I haven't been able to find one.
body.page-Forside h1.firstHeading, body.page-Vedtægter h1.firstHeading { display:none; }

Further cleanup issues related to the closure and deletion of Bulgarian Wikinews
@User:George Ho has done a lot of work looking at this, as you will see below. Because of the possibility that some content from here will be incorporated into a different Wikinews project, we are looking to finish cleaning up policy problems before making the content available, and before otherwise (effectively) deleting the wiki. By all means delete the pages that George describes that you think should be deleted. If you think some of the pages should be templated as "possible copyvios" instead, we will make a template available for that purpose. Thank you. StevenJ81 (talk) 13:11, 25 September 2019 (UTC)
Possible copyvio content at bg.wikinews
Now that bg.WN is closed/locked and that there are no admins as of date, before transferring remaining content to ru.Wikinews, I would like you to draw attention to the below list of articles that I think are likely copied from third-party sources, like BBC and CNN. The ones that I'm unsure about would be mentioned in separate subsection.
Copied from one of my subpages:
List of articles mentioned in Proposals for closing projects/Deletion of Bulgarian Wikinews:
Most likely
- n:bg:Google и Mozilla вземат мерки, за да предотвратят следенето на употребата на Интернет — copied/translated from "Google and Mozilla move to stop Kazakhstan 'snooping'" (BBC)
- — Originally addressed at n:bg:Уикиновини:Разговори#Copyright violation?, where comparison table is made (from history: oldid 23418 to oldid 24555
- n:bg:Учени откриха по-стари версии на картина на Леонардо да Винчи — from "Leonardo da Vinci's abandoned and hidden artwork reveals its secrets" (BBC)
- n:bg:Индия демонстрира космически апарат за втората си лунна мисия — from "Chandrayaan-2: India unveils spacecraft for second Moon mission" (BBC)
More likely
List of Григор Гачев's (Grigor Gachev's) remaining created articles:
Definitely / Most likely
More likely
- n:bg:Протести във Великобритания срещу решението на Борис Джонсън да суспендира парламента — consisting mostly of (partial?) content from "Parliament suspension: Thousands protest across the UK" (BBC) and one paragraph citing CNN's article Boris Johnson's suspension of Parliament sparks Brexit protests
- n:bg:Станции в Русия за ядрено наблюдение мистериозно спират да работят след инцидента от 8 август 2019 г. — translated from (partial?) content of "Nuclear monitoring stations went mysteriously quiet after Russian missile facility explosion" (CNN)
- n:bg:Над милион пръстови отпечатъци и други лични данни са изложени на онлайн достъпност от софтуер за сигурност — portions copied/translated from "Biostar security software 'leaked a million fingerprints'" (BBC)
- n:bg:Учени твърдят, че скоростта и степента на глобалното затопляне са ненадминати за последните 2000 години — portions copied/translated and/or derived from mostly "Climate change: Current warming 'unparalleled' in 2,000 years" (BBC). The Nature article is cited just to identify scientists' nationalities, but it's not mostly used as much as the BBC one.
- n:bg:Facebook премахна 500 страници, разпространяващи фалшиви новини (17 януари 2019 г.) — First three paragraphs were copied and translated from portions of "Facebook tackles Russians making fake news stories" (BBC). The fourth (last) paragraph has tiny info derived from "w:en:Internet Research Agency" (Wikipedia), which the article cites as a source
Likely
- n:bg:Изследвания на спектъра на втория обект с междузвезден произход в Слънчевата система — probably derived from "First measurements of 'interstellar comet'" (BBC)
- n:bg:Британският парламент се опитва да поеме контрол над хода на Брексит — probably combining four below BBC articles (and citing no other sources, unfortunately):
- n:bg:Генетично модифицирана гъбичка убива 99% от комари, пренасящи малария — more likely derived from "GM fungus rapidly kills 99% of malaria mosquitoes, study suggests" (BBC)
- n:bg:Марсианската мисия InSight на НАСА завърши инсталирането на сеизмометричния сензор — portions of "Nasa's InSight mission: Mars sensor gets its protective 'hat'" (BBC) copied and translated; regardless of whether the whole article is copied or not, I'm certain that the original article was infringed.
- n:bg:Apple взема мерки срещу нарушаване на правата за работа с iPhone от големи компании — portions of "Apple punishes Google over app rules" (BBC) copied and translated; same as above with this one
- n:bg:Десети полет за ракетната система „Ню Шепърд“ (23 януари 2019 г.) — portions of "Jeff Bezos' New Shepard rocket system flies for 10th time" copied and translated; same rationale as above
- n:bg:CERN планира строеж на още по-голям ускорител (15 януари 2019 г.) — translates more likely portions of "Cern plans even larger hadron collider for physics search" (BBC). bg.WN version's fourth paragraph is tougher to verify and compare, but I see some sentences taken/derived from the original source.
Slightly likely
- n:bg:ЕС преговарящ - Висок риск от твърд Брексит — some, if not few or several, portions of "Brexit: High risk of UK crashing out - EU negotiator" (BBC) copied and translated. To one, using slim portions of the original source isn't highly an infringement. However, even using those portions from the same original source would still be more likely an infringement.
- n:bg:Пръстените на Сатурн са не по-стари от 100 милиона години (17 януари 2019 г.) — likely copied and translated from some portions of "Saturn's spectacular rings are 'very young'" (BBC), which is larger, longer, and more detailed than the bg.Wn version.
- n:bg:SpaceX изстреля десет спътника от системата Иридиум (11 януари 2019 г.) — the article is very small, but I think small or some portions of "SpaceX launch completes Iridium satellite refresh" (BBC) were copied, derived, and translated

Other bg.wn content (undetermined)
Other articles mentioned at #Possible copyvio content at bg.wikinews I'm certain are likely copyvios. The ones below I'm very unsure about, so I figure that further evaluation is needed. If any one of them is copyvio, it should be deleted. One of previous requests was rejected because, at the time, bg language wasn't understood. I wonder whether the lack of understanding the language would impact this request.
Copied from one of my user subpages:
List of Григор Гачев's (Grigor Gachev's) remaining created articles:
- n:bg:Разногласия по повод изкуствения интелект между Илон Мъск и Джак Ма — maybe copied or derived from "Elon Musk and Jack Ma disagree about AI's threat" (BBC); other copied quotes were taken from primary subjects of the conference, Elon Musk and Jack Ma, leaving me uncertain whether differences between those facts and expressions of those quotes are high or very minimal
- n:bg:В Слънчевата система е открит предполагаем втори обект с междузвезден произход — one BBC article and one CNN article are used as sources; I don't know whether the expressions of those sources were infringed.
- n:bg:Изгубена е връзката със спускаемия апарат на индийската лунна мисия Чандраяан-2 — sources: "Chandrayaan-2: Modi proud despite Moon landing setback" (BBC) and "India is trying to reconnect with lost lunar lander on the surface of the moon" (CNN); I also can't figure this one out either
- n:bg:Експлозия при изпитания на ракетен двигател край Северодвинск — synthesizing two CNN articles, one BBC article, and DW article. One paragraph cites 29.ru, but the article isn't specified yet. The synthesized article doesn't seem to infringe the third-party sources, but I'm not confident.

License compatibility of one bg.wn article
The article n:bg:Научен пробив: земни скали от най-древната епоха могат да се намерят на Луната! was copied from cosmos.1.bg article, which is licensed under CC-BY-SA 2.5, though somehow the link directs to the CC-BY 2.5 license. As of now, the link to the original source is down, but I hope it works again later as it did hours ago. Just in case, here's the archive link from Wayback Machine. The CC-BY-SA wouldn't be one-way compatible with CC-BY, especially per n:en:Wikinews:Copyright. If importing the CC-BY-SA into Wikinews is not legitimate, then the bg.wn copy should be deleted.

Technical deletion
Good evening, please handle the deletion of the following page: fr:Utilisateur:ZéroBot/Log/Erreurs, which was requested on 22/09. Local sysops are not apparently allowed to do it because the history is too big. Thanks. ›› Fugitron - 19:50, 25 September 2019 (UTC)
