Mass killings under Communist regimes[edit]

It seems to me that your conclusion ("There seems to be a consensus that, while perhaps not perfect, the new text is an improvement") is not a correct summary of the discussion. I provided a number of reliable sources that allowed me to come to a conclusion that this text in not an improvement, and these my arguments have not been refuted. Although I and TFD didn't write 'oppose in bold, we both opposed to the proposed changes, and, taking into account that our opinion is based on reliable secondary sources, I have absolutely no idea what your decision to implement this change was based on. (Especially taking into account that one of the users who voted for proposed changes did that in extremely insulting and uncivil manner, which was especially intolerable taking into account that he has already been warned per WP:DIGWUREN.
I think your decision was based on just simple vote count, and I respectfully ask you to self-revert.--Paul Siebert (talk) 02:03, 23 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Extended confirmed protection[edit]

Hello, Laurascudder. This message is intended to notify administrators of important changes to the protection policy.

Extended confirmed protection (also known as "30/500 protection") is a new level of page protection that only allows edits from accounts at least 30 days old and with 500 edits. The automatically assigned "extended confirmed" user right was created for this purpose. The protection level was created following this community discussion with the primary intention of enforcing various arbitration remedies that prohibited editors under the "30 days/500 edits" threshold to edit certain topic areas.

In July and August 2016, a request for comment established consensus for community use of the new protection level. Administrators are authorized to apply extended confirmed protection to combat any form of disruption (e.g. vandalism, sock puppetry, edit warring, etc.) on any topic, subject to the following conditions:

  • Extended confirmed protection may only be used in cases where semi-protection has proven ineffective. It should not be used as a first resort.
  • A bot will post a notification at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard of each use. MusikBot currently does this by updating a report, which is transcluded onto the noticeboard.

Please review the protection policy carefully before using this new level of protection on pages. Thank you.
This message was sent to the administrators' mass message list. To opt-out of future messages, please remove yourself from the list. 17:47, 23 September 2016 (UTC)

I am a graphic designer interested in using your photo:

Scott Neeson page deletetion[edit]

Hi Laura,

Please bare with me, I'm new to wikipedia.

According to the deletion logs you deleted the page "Scott Neeson".

″16:01, 30 March 2006 Laurascudder (talk | contribs) deleted page Scott neeson (CSD A8: on WP:CP since 8 March)″

And the reason "CSD:A8" means

″A8. Blatant copyright infringement articles Superseded by "Unambiguous copyright infringement" (G12) in October 2006 (unopposed proposal).″

I'm not an administrator so not able to see the deleted page but I don't think there could be a copyright issue unless the page was vandalised.

I'd much appreciate your comment.

Two-Factor Authentication now available for admins[edit]

Hello,

Please note that TOTP based two-factor authentication is now available for all administrators. In light of the recent compromised accounts, you are encouraged to add this additional layer of security to your account. It may be enabled on your preferences page in the "User profile" tab under the "Basic information" section. For basic instructions on how to enable two-factor authentication, please see the developing help page for additional information. Important: Be sure to record the two-factor authentication key and the single use keys. If you lose your two factor authentication and do not have the keys, it's possible that your account will not be recoverable. Furthermore, you are encouraged to utilize a unique password and two-factor authentication for the email account associated with your Wikimedia account. This measure will assist in safeguarding your account from malicious password resets. Comments, questions, and concerns may be directed to the thread on the administrators' noticeboard.

A new user right for New Page Patrollers[edit]

Hi Laurascudder.

A new user group, New Page Reviewer, has been created in a move to greatly improve the standard of new page patrolling. The user right can be granted by any admin at PERM. It is highly recommended that admins look beyond the simple numerical threshold and satisfy themselves that the candidates have the required skills of communication and an advanced knowledge of notability and deletion. Admins are automatically included in this user right.

It is anticipated that this user right will significantly reduce the work load of admins who patrol the performance of the patrollers. However,due to the complexity of the rollout, some rights may have been accorded that may later need to be withdrawn, so some help will still be needed to some extent when discovering wrongly applied deletion tags or inappropriate pages that escape the attention of less experienced reviewers, and above all, hasty and bitey tagging for maintenance. User warnings are available here but very often a friendly custom message works best.

If you have any questions about this user right, don't hesitate to join us at WT:NPR. (Sent to all admins).MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:47, 15 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Administrator account security (Correction to Arbcom 2019 special circular)[edit]

ArbCom would like to apologise and correct our previous mass message in light of the response from the community.

Since November 2018, six administrator accounts have been compromised and temporarily desysopped. In an effort to help improve account security, our intention was to remind administrators of existing policies on account security — that they are required to "have strong passwords and follow appropriate personal security practices." We have updated our procedures to ensure that we enforce these policies more strictly in the future. The policies themselves have not changed. In particular, two-factor authentication remains an optional means of adding extra security to your account. The choice not to enable 2FA will not be considered when deciding to restore sysop privileges to administrator accounts that were compromised.

We are sorry for the wording of our previous message, which did not accurately convey this, and deeply regret the tone in which it was delivered.

2019 US Banknote Contest[edit]

US Banknote Contest
November-December 2019

There are an estimated 30,000 different varieties of United States banknotes, yet only a fraction of these are represented on Wikimedia Commons in the form of 2D scans. Additionally, Colonial America, the Confederate States, the Republic of Texas, multiple states and territories, communities, and private companies have issued banknotes that are in the public domain today but are absent from Commons.

In the months of November and December, WikiProject Numismatics will be running a cross-wiki upload-a-thon, the 2019 US Banknote Contest. The goal of the contest is to increase the number of US banknote images available to content creators on all Wikimedia projects. Participants will claim points for uploading and importing 2D scans of US banknotes, and at the end of the contest all will receive awards. Whether you want to claim the Gold Wiki or you just want to have fun, all are invited to participate.


If you do not want to receive invitations to future US Banknote Contests, follow the instructions here

Users engaging in disruptive/unbecoming behavior in Talk:Trypophobia discussion[edit]

Hello. I'd like to ask you to take a look at users on the page Talk: Trypophobia.

Backstory: There's several problems going on with the page discussion, even before I got there, such an admin users musing on self-experiments they were doing and telling others not to discuss a topic which was subject to controversy (mainly concerning whether to keep the lead image there). I made a reply that I thought there was systematic bias in editor's decisions to keep the lead image where it was. Users were somewhat offended that I'd make references to implicit bias and connections I made about their page activity; some of that offense may have been justified. In any case, I was directed to open a dispute resolution to reopen an RfC from 2018, and after spending a while reading rules about discussion, I opened an ANI because I didn't think my request for a review of implicit bias would fit under any other dispute resolution action. I contacted the single person who went against the RfC consensus, Pengo and asked them for their feeling on what happened in that RfC and relayed my takeaway from that discussion to the other discussions. During the ANI, I was addressed by several non-admin users who did not identify that they weren't admins, mostly responding in a negative way, some of whom had previously participated in the Talk:Trypophobia discussion. They convinced me to close the ANI, and I started preparing to open a new RfC. One of my actions, in response to a recommendation in the ANI, was to open a request for review on WT:Med. Another user joined on to the discussion who had previously participated in Talk Trypophobia. While several people have replied in support of my position on other pages, none have been willing to visit the page and work on dispute resolution, so that my responding to 3-5, in my opinion, highly negative users has compounded my frustration with further issues.

Current problems: A user who was previously uninvolved made a post on Pengo's page asking us why we saw bias in the original RfC and replied with indignance several times. Now that user is accusing me of misinterpreting Pengo's position on the other talk pages, breaking a quote I made there in a way that I think was intended to create contention. The same user from pengo's page, Acidsetback, and another who came from the ANI, ScottishFinnishRadish, began, in my opinion, mocking me for suggesting that we ask a researcher for a picture which is less likely to cause a reaction in people with trypophobia. The latter user posted a picture of a wolf to mock my idea, saying that the wolf probably wouldn't cause a trypophobia reaction. Lastly, the user who responded when I asked for help on WP:Med, @WhatamIdoing, I believe is now working against me, arguing against my points, creating research time for me, and repeatedly implying that my pursuit of the issue is a waste of time. I think this is a problem in that I asked for help on WP:Med pursuing the issue I was concerned with. If a user on that page believed my concerns were unfounded, they should have told me there rather than join in on the page to actively work against my line of inquiry. Now User:ScottishFinnishRadish is saying I should open an ANI if I want to pursue my misgivings about users behavior, but they seem to think I'll be banned or reprimanded if I do so.

Any comments you could provide or if you could look in to these issue would be helpful. I don't know. I don't believe these users are willing to work together, and have pre-determined that their thoughts on the subject are correct. I'm, to the best of my ability, done working on that page for now because of the resistance from these users. Thank you. --IronMaidenRocks (talk) 14:03, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, @IronMaidenRocks. Unfortunately, Laura has only made one edit during the last year. I'm not sure that she will see your message. You'll probably have better luck with your conversations with Pengo and Isabelle Belato. Also, you may want to review the guideline on Wikipedia:Canvassing, which is likely your main structural obstacle if you want to prioritize the views of editors with the condition over editors without the condition. WhatamIdoing (talk) 19:49, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @WhatamIdoing. Thanks, I noticed that. My thinking at this point is that I might not need to notify an administrator if I get feedback from an expert opinion and some users refrain from antagonistic activity on the page and surrounding discussions in further responses. So I might just wait for feedback from someone who has academically studied the condition before doing anything more on the topic.
It's not a priority for me, at this point, to contact users who have the condition. I'd rather have the feedback of such people than direct them to stock the RfC. Also, resolving this issue is not the responsibility of individuals who have the condition. If you'd like to help and think it pertinent, especially given your proximity to WP:MED, you could try to reach out to such communities. That would inevitably save me time, if it came to that, and would necessarily ease over the minor complaint I had about your participation in the discussion so far. I wouldn't envy you, because figuring out how to gather a efficacious sample of opinions and feedback in that case seems like a daunting task. But maybe there are already Wikipedia polices in place for that. --IronMaidenRocks (talk) 23:21, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I think that Wikipedia policies and practices are opposed to doing that. It's okay for an individual to ask another individual about something, but soliciting a "biased" group of people is frowned on. I suspect that the rules were set up to deal with political fights ("My subreddit has a hundred members, whihc is better than your little subreddit") and not with this much more reasonable use case in mind, but those are the current rules.

How we will see unregistered users[edit]

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)
