Russianname и Водник

[edit]

Здравствуйте! У меня вопрос - почему здесь две учётные записи в различных Википедиях, если имя участника было сменено в большинстве проектов в 2008 году? --MasterRus21thCentury (talk) 15:56, 22 March 2026 (UTC)Reply

[edit]

Is there a consensus of whether interwiki-linked text should be prefixed with the interwiki prefix? The article discussing interwiki links does not seem to address this, and I would like to change that. Michael21107 (talk) 18:16, 3 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

Pattern recognition for non-compliant usernames and page titles

[edit]

Hello, en:WP:NOSALT suggests setting alarms for problematic page titles, instead of title blocks. Does anyone patrol new usernames and page titles using automated alarms, such as for user names that are non-compliant with the Global username policy? If not then maybe this would be a good application for some pattern recognition with AI. See also Title blacklist and Talk:Title blacklist. ↠Pine () 04:51, 5 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

Translation request for Wiki for Sustainable Futures 2026

[edit]

Greetings,

I'm writing to request that three pages for the Wiki for Sustainable Futures 2026 campaign be marked for translation:

To help with the process, I've used the TranslateTagger tool, so the necessary tags should already be in place. Thank you in advance for your help. Best, Paula (WDU) (talk) 01:08, 17 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

Done. For the record, though, all three pages needed substantial edits before being marked as TranslateTagger did not do a particularly good job. * Pppery * it has begun 01:44, 17 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
