Admins: If you think an admin action I've taken recently is wrong or unhelpful, or one I've taken in the past is no longer useful, go ahead and undo or change it without feeling like you have to talk to me first. An explanation in the edit summary is always helpful, but I trust your judgement. |

I came across this award reviewing a draft and it appears to be a notable award mentioned in several articles. Thought you might be interested in creating an article. See also es:Gourmand World Cookbook Awards. S0091 (talk) 16:09, 5 February 2024 (UTC)
- Hm, it has an entry in 8 language wikis. Definitely seems worth investigating, thanks! Valereee (talk) 17:37, 6 February 2024 (UTC)

For a surprise, a Bach cantata is on the Main page today, where it was last year for the 300th anniversary, and they were too lazy to find something new ;) - Look at my story, and listen to the 3 whole-tone steps and the dialogues of Fear and Hope. - An open letter open to be signed (more info on the talk), - I haven't checked if you did, please ignore then. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:13, 7 November 2024 (UTC)

Issues
editHi I see that you are trying to get my attention, but it doesnt seem like your seeing my message. i apologize for any inconvience ive caused you. i spoke with hey josh man after he moved something to draft space and i asked why since i hadnt thought that i had uploaded it yet. never got a response so i hadnt realized that they arent in the draft space. i thought the links said that the page was not created yet. my fault for not understanding the draft space Drwho407 (talk) 19:46, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
- Hey, Drwho407! I've answered at your talk, and no worries, we just wanted to get your attention to make sure you knew how to create in draft space. Valereee (talk) 13:15, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
Tech News: 2024-46
editLatest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.
Updates for editors
- On wikis with the Translate extension enabled, users will notice that the FuzzyBot will now automatically create translated versions of categories used on translated pages. [1]
- View all 29 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week. For example, the submitted task to use the SecurePoll extension for English Wikipedia's special administrator election was resolved on time. [2]
Updates for technical contributors
- In
1.44.0-wmf-2
, the logic of Wikibase functiongetAllStatements
changed to behave likegetBestStatements
. Invoking the function now returns a copy of values which are immutable. [3] - Wikimedia REST API users, such as bot operators and tool maintainers, may be affected by ongoing upgrades. The API will be rerouting some page content endpoints from RESTbase to the newer MediaWiki REST API endpoints. The impacted endpoints include getting page/revision metadata and rendered HTML content. These changes will be available on testwiki later this week, with other projects to follow. This change should not affect existing functionality, but active users of the impacted endpoints should verify behavior on testwiki, and raise any concerns on the related Phabricator ticket.
In depth
- Admins and users of the Wikimedia projects where Automoderator is enabled can now monitor and evaluate important metrics related to Automoderator's actions. This Superset dashboard calculates and aggregates metrics about Automoderator's behaviour on the projects in which it is deployed. Thanks to the Moderator Tools team for this Dashboard; you can visit the documentation page for more information about this work. [4]
Meetings and events
- 21 November 2024 (8:00 UTC & 16:00 UTC) - Community call with Wikimedia Commons volunteers and stakeholders to help prioritize support efforts for 2025-2026 Fiscal Year. The theme of this call is how content should be organised on Wikimedia Commons.

Reminder to participate in Wikipedia research
editHello,
I recently invited you to take a survey about administration on Wikipedia. If you haven’t yet had a chance, there is still time to participate– we’d truly appreciate your feedback. The survey is anonymous and should take about 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement.
Take the survey here.
Kind Regards,
Question
editHey valereee, thanks for being supportive on the UM situation. Quick question before I go forward, I'd like to tag some sources I think are questionable on the page there, specifically ones that link to shops that appear to sell bootleg material here. Would going through that be a bit too much? I think it would help for context if I want to bring it up on the talk page. Andrzejbanas (talk) 18:01, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
- Hey, @Andrzejbanas, no thanks necessary, just doing my job. :) I think you could either tag, or tag and if reverted bring it up on the talk page. Either would be completely acceptable. Valereee (talk) 18:17, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
- Cool. :) Just wanted to clarify that tp not be brash or come off as some drive-by tagging or what not. Excellent, I feel so much better being able to confirm stuff before going way to hog wild. I've also thought that to avoid me endlessly adding on in conversations that if editors want a request from me, that they please ping me. I think that would help me with any clarification and not having me swamp your page with monsters of film yore every week or whatever. :D Thoughts? Andrzejbanas (talk) 18:31, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
