Welcome to Meta!

Hello Linedwell!, and welcome to the Wikimedia Meta-Wiki! This website is for coordinating and discussing all Wikimedia projects. You may find it useful to read our policy page. If you are interested in doing translations, visit Meta:Babylon. You can also leave a note on Meta:Babel or Wikimedia Forum (please read the instructions at the top of the page before posting there). Happy editing! — Mikhailov Kusserow (talk) 01:30, 22 October 2009 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

This barnstar is given to you for your help with the 2011 fundraiser translation.

Hi! I just want to thank you and give you this barnstar for your help with the translation of the 2011 fundraiser! The fundraiser was the best we ever had, both in terms of the amount we collected and in terms of number of translations. We couldn't have done either one without the help we got from you and other translators. If you are interested, we made a report, which has some statistics about the translations.

And: I have one more request, and that is that you take this survey. You may have got an e-mail about it, and if you did, please ignore this. But if you didn't it would be great if you would take this survey too, so we can learn to improve the translation experience.

Again, thanks for your help with translations – you're awesome! Jon Harald Søby (WMF) 13:31, 24 January 2012 (UTC)

Thank you for the Barnstar, it will be one little more motivation to help with translations in the future. Sorry for my awfull english, I 'm not very good in foreign languages. --Linedwell@frwiki 16:31, 24 January 2012 (UTC)

Fundraising translation feedback

Hey Linedwell,

I wanted to ask for your help. As you may be aware we have been running banners on many language wikis. We have a lot of new content this year and I really want to conduct a thorough review of our translations. This is a combination of feedback from the community, readers, donors as well as those with professional translator experience. This will help us ensure the highest quality of translations used in our messaging.

To help us out with this I wonder if you would be willing to give us feedback in french using This Link

Simply follow the simple instructions on that page and if you have any questions feel free to contact me on my talk page.

Many Thanks

Boris Vian

Salut Linedwell

Je suis très découragé. Cela fait cinq fois que j'envoie le message reçu de la cohérie boris Vian ( héritiers de Boris Vian) et la photo qu'ils m'ont envoyé attachée au message. On vient de la supprimer en disant qu'il n'y a pas eu d'autorisation. Iù uis-je encore envoyer ce messages ( les héritiers Vian commencent à en avoir marre de wikimedia commons, ils sont comme moi, ils ne comprennent rien). Merci pour ton aide.--Lepetitlord (talk) 21:35, 8 March 2014 (UTC) (sur wikipédia je suis là http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utilisateur:Lepetitlord)

Userbox template

Hi, I noticed that the latest SWMT userbox edit removed its capability to be placed at the centre... can that be added or go back to hard-coding if it had more options? -- Mentifisto 21:30, 15 January 2015 (UTC)

@Mentifisto: Hi, it seems SWMT userbox lost is capability to be centered (like every other userbox, {{User OTRS}}

, {{User admin}} , ...) but this capacity wasn't "excpected" for an userbox. About the hardcoding I don't think this is a good idea for 1 reason, the size of this "fake box" isn't the same than the "true boxes". Linedwell@frwiki (talk) 22:23, 15 January 2015 (UTC)

What do you mean by fake and true boxes? Including <center> will change its size? -- Mentifisto 18:41, 17 January 2015 (UTC)

@Mentifisto: I call "true" infobox the ones using the {{Userbox}} template. The previous box had a different size than the boxes using {{Userbox}}. Adding the <center> wouldn't change the size. But it would "break" the displays of regular boxes and this one when used on the same page. Linedwell@frwiki (talk) 19:02, 17 January 2015 (UTC)

'Float' is a parameter on enwiki's template... would that also alter the size? Only problem is, it doesn't seem to be able to align to the center... -- Mentifisto 02:10, 18 January 2015 (UTC)

@Mentifisto: Float doesn't alter the size, and yes "center" isn't a valid parameter to the float property (allowed ones are: "none", "left", "right", "initial" and "inherit" (float property documentation). Linedwell@frwiki (talk) 10:04, 18 January 2015 (UTC)

37.144.145.16

Hello! Will you look, please, at https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/37.144.145.16 That seems to be a destructive bot. What do you think about it? Domitori (talk) 04:12, 17 February 2015 (UTC)

@Domitori: Hi, it seems to be a bot but edit summary is one of commons:Mediawiki:Gadget-AjaxQuickDelete.js that is enabled (by default) for everyone (including non logged users) on Commons. Kindly, Linedwell@frwiki (talk) 11:21, 17 February 2015 (UTC)

There is similar case at the Russian version of wikisource, but this time the bot is handled by the registered user Lozman, who removes the text of the following authors:

https://ru.wikisource.org/wiki/Леонард_Борисович_Терновский

https://ru.wikisource.org/wiki/Софья_Васильевна_Каллистратова

https://ru.wikisource.org/wiki/Александр_Павлович_Тимофеевский

The texts are moved to some strange site http://wikilivres.ru

There, the user with the same nick Lozman removes them with pretext of violation of the copyright

(the licenses from Wikisource are not transferred to that site).

You may look for the example at

https://ru.wikisource.org/w/index.php?title=Леонард_Борисович_Терновский&oldid=96651

Do you think, such an activity also should be allowed? Domitori (talk) 13:21, 21 February 2015 (UTC)

Congratulations!

Hello Linedwell,

On behalf of the stewards' election committee, congratulations on your election as a steward! Your permissions have now been set and you are able to start working.

You have been added to the list of stewards and the stewards' chart. Please take a moment to check that your details are accurate and update them if necessary.

You have been given access to the mailing lists related to your steward duties, which include: checkuser-l, the private mailing list for Wikimedia checkusers, stewards-l, the private list for stewards. In addition, you have been or will be given access to the related private wikis, one for checkusers and the other solely for stewards, details of which will be provided.

If you use IRC, you will be given access to several channels, including #wikimedia-checkuser^connect and #wikimedia-privacy^connect. Please also idle in #wikimedia-stewards^connect when you are available for duty.

Best of luck with your new tools; I am sure you will do a fantastic job. Please remember that your fellow stewards are always available if you need a second opinion, either via the mailing list or on IRC.

bot request

Linedwell can you confirm some of the bot request as a steward?-Mr wikilover (talk) 09:34, 18 April 2015 (UTC)

Renommage ?

Bonjour Linedwell,

Que pouvons-nous répondre à cette demande ? Est-ce que tu peux la prendre en charge ? Merci de ton aide précieuse :-) --Zyephyrus (talk) 08:11, 2 August 2015 (UTC)

Bonjour Zyephyrus,

Cette requête requiert l'utilisation de l'outil de fusion de comptes, qui n'est pas encore disponible (encore en test par les développeurs). Il y a également un petit souci, si l'utilisateur qui possède ces 2 comptes ne se souvient pas de son mot de passe, je pense que la demande de fusion ne pourra pas être acceptée (vu qu'il doit prouver qu'il possède les deux comptes avant de pouvoir les fusionner). Cordialement, Linedwell (talk) 08:20, 2 August 2015 (UTC)

Please sign new Wikimedia confidentiality agreement for nonpublic information by 15 December

This is a message from the Wikimedia Foundation. Translations are available.

As you may know, the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees approved a new "Access to nonpublic information policy" on 25 April 2014 after a community consultation. The former policy has remained in place until the new policy could be implemented. That implementation work is now being done, and we are beginning the transition to the new policy.

An important part of that transition is helping volunteers like you sign the required confidentiality agreement. All Wikimedia volunteers with access to nonpublic information are required to sign this new agreement, and we have prepared some documentation to help you do so.

The Wikimedia Foundation is requiring that anyone with access to nonpublic information sign the new confidentiality agreement by 15 December 2015 (OTRS users have until 22 December 2015) to retain their access. You are receiving this email because you have access to nonpublic information and are required to sign the confidentiality agreement under the new policy.

Signing the confidentiality agreement for nonpublic information is conducted and tracked using Legalpad on Phabricator. The general confidentiality agreement is now ready, and the OTRS agreement will be ready after 22 September 2015. We have prepared a guide on Meta-Wiki to help you create your Phabricator account and sign the new agreement: Confidentiality agreement for nonpublic information/How to sign

If you have any questions or experience any problems while signing the new agreement, please visit this talk page or email me (gvarnumwikimedia.org). Again, please sign this confidentiality agreement by 15 December 2015 (OTRS users have until 22 December 2015) to retain your access to nonpublic information. If you do not wish to retain this access, please let me know and we will forward your request to the appropriate individuals.

Thank you,

If you do not sign the new confidentiality agreement by 31 December 2015, you will lose your OTRS access. OTRS volunteers have a specific agreement available, if you have recently signed the general confidentiality agreement for another role (such as CheckUser or Oversight), you do not need to sign the general agreement again, but you will still need to sign the OTRS agreement.

WM PL toolserver block

Thnks for softenning the block!

BTW, could you hint me any way how can we avoid such accidental blocks in future? Is adding all bots operating from this server the ipblock-extempt right on all projects they are active in the only way? Unfortunately, if the bots are stopped for longer period of time as such a block is not noticed, resetting their maintenance work to the right way is highly time consuming. Ankry (talk) 18:38, 27 November 2015 (UTC)

@Ankry: I suppose the only way to avoid this accidental block in future is looking at the block log before to block. For very active bots, a global IP Block Exempt can be requested here. Kindely, Linedwell (talk) 19:33, 27 November 2015 (UTC)

Thx. Local extempts would be enough in theese cases as no bot is highly active on more than 3-4 projects. Unfortunately, MediaWiki:Autoblock_whitelist seems to no longer work (phab:T119758) Ankry (talk) 21:01, 27 November 2015 (UTC)

Confirmation discussions

Dear Linedwell,

As you probably know, the confirmation discussions for Stewards have been closed. In order to determine the outcome of these discussions, you are invited to comment on Talk:Stewards/Confirm/2016 before scheduled closure of the confirmation section "one week after the appointment of the newly elected stewards" (Sunday 6th of March, 17:22 UTC), though the closing time might be extended at the ElectCom's discretion for an extra week if it is believed "further input is required before concluding". All stewards are welcome to comment, including those newly elected.

For those who ran for confirmation, consider revising comments regarding you, and replying to those where appropriate. Savh^ñ 08:01, 4 March 2016 (UTC)

Sysop flag on maiwiki

Namaste Linedwell,
First! Sorry for my behaviour, I was stressed with my real life problems and my recent RFA on wikidata was not successful. So that i think to retired but now I'm ok and want to back to my works. So, Can my sysop right be back or not? Regards, TBhagat (talk) 12:53, 17 March 2016 (UTC)

@Tulsi Bhagat: Hi, I'm sorry but once a flag is removed the only way to regain it is a local RFA (and a new consensus). That's why we usually wait 24h before to proceed to the removal. Regards, Linedwell (talk) 13:19, 17 March 2016 (UTC)

2016 Community Wishlist Survey

Hi,

You’re getting this message because you participated in the 2015 Community Wishlist Survey and we want to make sure you don't miss it this year – or at least can make the conscious choice to ignore if it you want to. The 2015 survey decided what the Community Tech team should work on during 2016. It was also the focus of Wikimedia hackathons and work by other developers. You can see the status of wishes from the 2015 wishlist at 2015 Community Wishlist Survey/Results.

The 2016 Community Wishlist Survey is now open for wishes. You can create proposals until November 20. You will be able to vote on which wishes you think are best or most important between November 28 and December 12. /Johan (WMF) (talk) via MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 11:17, 14 November 2016 (UTC)

No renaming between November 20 and November 27

Hi,

You’re getting this because you’re a steward or global renamer. The Community Tech team are working on cross-wiki watchlists. We need to add a couple of fields to the localuser table in centralauth database. In order to be able to do this, we’d need to run a script that will get in the way of renaming users. Our apologies – we realize this is getting in the way of your work.

We ask that you do not rename anyone between 00:00 November 20 (UTC) and 00:00 November 27 (UTC).

(UTC means that if you live in the Americas, it will be on the evening or afternoon of November 19 when the script starts running, and if you live in Oceania or eastern Asia, it can be closer midday on November 27 before we can be sure the script is no longer running.)

Phabricator task.

If there are any problems related to this, or you have any questions, please write me on my talk page. /Johan (WMF) (talk) via MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 19:39, 17 November 2016 (UTC)

Re: Your administrator status on the mgwiki

Salut,

Merci pour ta notification. Je ne suis effectivement plus actif sur mg:, mais comme la dernière fois, vu qu'il y a très peu d'admins pour plus de 80000 articles, et qu'il est assez facile de me "réveiller", je pensais que ce serait bien que je conserve encore un peu mes droits d'admins là-bas. Je vais en faire la proposition à la communauté locale ; pour info cependant, cette dernière n'avait pas bougé il y a deux ans quand j'avais posé la même question et tes collègues de l'époque m'avaient gentiment laissé continuer à ne rien faire de mes outils :)

Bien cordialement, -- AlNo (talk) 14:59, 21 March 2017 (UTC)

SOS

Bonjour et permettez-moi de me présenter : je suis Claude Piard, jadis contributeur sous le pseudo de Claude PIARD aujourd’hui quasi-banni dans des conditions pour le moins contestables. Et vous êtes mon ultime recours pour dénoncer des dérives nuisibles in fine à la réputation de Wikepdia. J'ai en effet déjà tenté d'alerter le CAR qui s'est déclaré incompétent puis fais appel récemment aux bureaucrates où mes messages sur leur PdD, revertés dans les délais les plus brefs par Habertrix, n'entrent même plus suite à une prise de contrôle que n'approuverait probablement pas la CNIL. Mais ce genre de manœuvre risquée est bien révélateur en soi de l'urgence qu'il y a pour certain(e)s de "cacher les poussières sous le tapis".

Excusez-moi donc de vous ramener loin en arrière. En novembre 2013 Litlok est intervenu sur la PaS pour TI d’un article consacré à l’ « Attitude des juifs sous le régime nazi » pour suggérer son transfert dans la catégorie Recherche en histoire de Wikiversité, ce que j’ai fait le 6 janvier 2014 non sans provoquer de réactions de Lgd/Alginatus, longtemps sous simple IP.

Deux ans plus tard, en octobre 2016 la fausse manoeuvre d’un collègue et ami qui a rapatrié par erreur les travaux résultant de l'évolution de cet article sur Wikiversité a été prétexte au procès le plus rapide de l’histoire wikipédienne. Un RA pour « désorganisation de l’encyclopédie » initié par Heddryin à mon encontre déposé le 22 octobre à 12 heures 46 a abouti à mon blocage indéfini le 24 octobre à 18 heures 41, sanction prononcée par Lomita – après une large consultation certes – aux motifs allégués de « WP-POINT, meatpuppetry et contournement de décision communautaire », la décision étant appliquée par Starus. Le RA initial a été clos dès le 23 par la même Lomita à 9 heures 33 – soit 15 heures après son ouverture – pour « conflit d’édition » trois minutes exactement après le dépôt de mon argumentaire, la discussion se poursuivant ensuite uniquement sur le BA entre administrateurs où celui-ci est ignoré.

Mes tentatives d’appel au RA puis au CaR sont rapidement éludés avec pour seul effet le blocage de mon IP (2A01:E35:2E8F:19D0:E574:9CCA:1C5C:7825) et l’effacement de ma page présentation ainsi que sa PdD probablement trop compromettantes pour mes détracteurs. Depuis d’épisodiques tentatives de modestes interventions lors d’éphémères déblocages de mon IP se traduisent par son reblocage immédiat par Lomita au seul prétexte du test du canard, empêchant ainsi toute remise en cause de sa décision. Et actuellement ma détermination à faire rétablir l’exactitude des faits me vaut en RA une proposition de bannissement de la part d’Heggesipe. L’IP flottante de mon téléphone me permet néanmoins de porter à votre connaissance cette situation sur laquelle je reste prêt à fournir tous les renseignements complémentaires utiles. A cette fin, et faute d'autres moyens, mon adresse e-mail était accessible via mon ancienne page Claude PIARD. Celle-ci est certes effacée et je suppose que vous avez les outils nécessaires pour la ré-ouvrir. Néanmoins je me permets de vous la confirmer : crjpiard@free.fr

Merci d’avoir pris le temps de me lire et bonne semaine. Envoyé depuis une adresse flottante, faute de pouvoir le faire plus régulièrement.--37.166.90.99 16:19, 18 April 2017 (UTC)

Je découvre que ma connexion n'est pas bloquée sur Meta-Wiki et vous confirme donc totalement ce qui précède.--Claude PIARD (talk) 16:41, 18 April 2017 (UTC)

Cette version archivée avant effacement de ma page de discussion confirme et explicite ce qui précède. Elle démontre également que j’ai épuisé tous les recours avant de vous solliciter. Sans résultats autre que provoquer une demande de bannissement. Indifférence générale ? Complot ? Quoiqu’il en soit le remplacement du respect des principes fondateurs et des recommandations écrites par le concept de « décision communautaire » ( i.e. « au soviet ») a de quoi inquiéter pour l’avenir de Wikipédia francophone--Claude PIARD (talk) 09:38, 20 April 2017 (UTC).

Sysop Removal of access

Hello, we have been waiting for sysop removal of access for Xoser of Zazaki Wikipedia since almost a week.

I would say 3 months first as there were quite many voters. I also know new wikis where the first adminship was only 1 month, then 3 months, then 6 months and so on... but I think 3 months is a good start. Stryn (talk) 17:15, 15 May 2017 (UTC)

@Stryn: OK, then I will set it as 3 months. Linedwell ^[talk] 17:20, 15 May 2017 (UTC)

Merci et nouvelle demande

Bonjour Linedwell. Tout d'abord, je voulais te remercier d'avoir répondu à cette demande. Je voulais aussi te faire remarquer que le compte Descordes emis a encore été renommé, à mon avis encore par erreur... Je te laisse voir si ça merite de le bloquer ou si on attend une nouvelle demande de renommage. Bonne journée! Jmvkrecords ⚜ (Intra talk) 05:38, 30 May 2017 (UTC).

@Jmvkrecords: Je suis du même avis que Masti dans son commentaire; ne prendre action qu'à la prochaine requête. Linedwell ^[talk] 07:23, 30 May 2017 (UTC)

Ticket#2017072710002911

Bonjour Linedwell !
Je vous prie de bien vouloir donner votre avis sur la question suivante.
Le 27-07-2017, j'ai envoyé la demande d'autorisation d'importer un extrait de l'interview du réalisateur Dominique Delouche :
Dominique Delouche sur Éric Laborey (le 13-07-2017).pdf
sur Commons.
J'ai également joint à cette lettre ma correspondance avec M. Delouche où il donne l'autorisation de publication ce texte sur Wikipédia :
Re_ Éric Laborey (1-5).pdf
Le 30-07-2017, j'ai reçu la lettre de refus
Le critère « travail inédit » ne doit pas être interprété de manière étroite et bureaucratique.
Ce n'est pas une nouvelle théorie ou un concept scientifique. C'est la source primaire que l'auteur accorde exclusivement à Wikipedia. Tout est clair et évident.
J'espère votre compréhension, --V2016 (talk) 03:10, 31 July 2017 (UTC)

Bonjour V2016 une telle interview ne peut malheureusement pas servir de source pour un article sur Wikipédia. En effet, comme indiqué sur cette page, les sources primaires ne peuvent être utilisées que dans des cas très précis surtout si aucune source secondaire ne vient les appuyer. Je ne peux donc qu'abonder dans le sens de la personne qui a répondu à votre ticket. Cordialement, Linedwell ^[talk] 20:07, 31 July 2017 (UTC)

Help design a new feature to stop harassing emails

Hi there,

The Anti-Harassment Tools team plans to start develop of a new feature to allow users to restrict emails from new accounts. This feature will allow an individual user to stop harassing emails from coming through the Special:EmailUser system from abusive sockpuppeting accounts.

We’re inviting you to join the discussion because you have experience dealing with abusive sockpuppeting accounts and you work across many wikis. We think that your insights will help us build a better feature.

You can leave comments on this discussion page or send an email to the Anti-Harassment Tools team.

It is important to hear from a broad range of people who are interested in the design of the tool, so we hope you join the discussion and let us know how it would work best for you.

For the Anti-Harassment Tools team SPoore (WMF), Community Advocate, Community health initiative (talk) 21:50, 13 October 2017 (UTC)

Please let us know if you wish to opt-out of all massmessage mailings from the Anti-harassment tools team.

OS on Wikidata

Hello,

Until I resign, Wikidata has its own OS team and requests should be directed to us. Thanks, – Ajraddatz (talk) 15:19, 30 October 2017 (UTC)

@Ajraddatz: The requester contacted me regarding this point on WD:OS : "In emergencies (e. g. when no local oversighter is available), oversight requests can be referred to the stewards, who can be contacted at stewards at wikimedia.org." Best regards, Linedwell ^[talk] 15:36, 30 October 2017 (UTC)

Hi, no oversighter was online on #wikidata, so I contacted Linedwell who was online. Regards. --Thibaut120094 (talk) 15:50, 30 October 2017 (UTC)

We have a mailing list for exactly such purposes. oversight at wikidata.org – Ajraddatz (talk) 15:52, 30 October 2017 (UTC)

This is concerning - more attempts to contact local oversighters apparently should have been made. If you are using the emergency clause (which is really the case for any wiki with local oversighters), that should be clearly indicated in the log, and the oversight action should be particularly time-sensitive (i.e. not just somebody logged out and needing to hide their IP) and not addressable by revdel. Local oversighters should then be notified so that they can review the action. --Rschen7754 00:55, 31 October 2017 (UTC)

@Rschen7754: You are right, I should have mentioned in the revdel log that the ticket was critical, I thought only the ticket reference would have been enough. Even if I hope this kind of request will not happen anymore, I'll try to remember next time to explicitly specify the emergency of the request. Best regards, Linedwell ^[talk] 01:09, 31 October 2017 (UTC)

(Edit conflict.) (For the record, Linedwell clarified offline the nature of the emergency and I think that, while it could have been documented better, was a valid judgment call). --Rschen7754 01:10, 31 October 2017 (UTC)

Besoin d'aide

Chère Linedwell,
j'ai un souci et apparemment, vous êtes mon dernier recours pour y voir plus clair. Je participe à internationaliser les galeries sur Commons; en début d'année, un problème est survenu sur le fait d'avoir des titres de chapitre au pluriel, personnellement, je pensais qu'ils devaient tous être au singulier (sauf pour les listes). Après quelques discussions, une solution à fini par convenir à tous ex: modèle Maps. J'ai, non seulement, adopté ce type de modèle ex:ici mais commencé à participer à son développement ex:ici.

Mais, après avoir subi une menace violente et incompréhensible, cet Admin me bloque 1 semaine pour ceci (voir ici et l'intro comprise). Je suis allé sur "Commons:Administrators' noticeboard/User problems‎" afin d'obtenir des explications. Je leur laisse le temps de prendre connaissance du problème, mais au bout d'une semaine, le sujet est archivé sans aucune explication. Donc je relance le sujet et soit, on me dit de laisser tomber, soit je reçois des menaces d'utilisateurs non-Admin.

Donc, je retourne sur la page de discussion de la galerie pour pouvoir continuer mes contributions, mais pas de réponse. Attend-t-il une modification de ma part pour me bloquer définitivement? Je ne vois plus que vous pour clarifier la situation avec cet Admin. Merci d'avance pour votre aide. Camulogene77 (talk) 18:20, 28 April 2018 (UTC)

@Camulogene77: Bonjour, je viens de prendre connaissance des divers échanges sur les pages que vous indiquez. Bien que je comprenne votre contrariété, je pense que le conseil de Christian Ferrer est le plus judicieux (à savoir « faire le dos rond »). Je préciserai également que malheureusement, bien que steward, je ne peux être d'aucune utilité sur Commons qui ne reconnait pas ce statut et sur lequel je suis un simple contributeur (peu actif qui plus est). Cordialement, Linedwell ^[talk] 06:19, 29 April 2018 (UTC)

@Camulogene77: Bonjour, comme je suis cité je me permet de commenter. Si les utilisateurs et l'administrateur en question ne répondent pas, c'est parce que j'ai l'impression qu'il est clair pour eux qu'ils vous ont fais suffisement part de leurs points de vues. Il y a apparement un genre de consensus actuel à ne pas utiliser les labels dans les galleries, que cette opinion soit bien fondée ou non, c'est une chose, mais ce n'est pas le problème. Le problème c'est que vous ne pouvez pas aller contre le consensus, surtout dans le cas ou un administratuer vous a avertis. Je vous conseille de passer à autre chose, ou dans le cas ou le sujet vous tiens vraiment à coeur, de continuer à essayer de discuter (meme si il n'y a pas de réponse). Mais en tout cas je vous déconseille de réinstaller ces labels unilatéralement, car j'ai l'impression que cela vous causerai des problèmes, et je ne vous le souhaite pas. De toute façon, dites vous bien que si l'idée est bonne, alors elle ressortira à un moment ou à un autre. L'expression « faire le dos rond » employé ci-dessus par Linedwell est tout à fait appropriée. Christian Ferrer (talk) 06:48, 29 April 2018 (UTC)

Bloquage d'un bloc IPv6

Bonjour, Je souhaite éditer des pages, mais mon adresse est bloquée car faisant partie d'un bloc/44 d'adresses IPv6. Ce bannissement me semble abusif, car très large. En effet, il concerne toutes les adresses de la forme XXXX:XXXX:XX**:****:****:****:****:****, où XXXX:XXXX:XX est la base de l'adresse que je ne souhaite pas dévoiler sur une page de discussion publique. Est-il possible d'en discuter en privé ?

--Deuxenun (talk) 21:27, 14 May 2018 (UTC)

Blocage

Bonjour, en faisant une modification sur Wiki Data j'ai reçu le message suivant:

You do not have the permissions needed to carry out this action.

Your IP address is in a range which has been blocked on all wikis.

The block was made by Linedwell (meta.wikimedia.org). The reason given is Open proxy.

Start of block: 4 août 2018 06:22

Expiration of block: 06 août 2018 06:22 ‏

étant sysop en Wiki Persane j'aimerais bien savoir de quoi s'agit-il ce blocage? c marqué Open proxy mais pk? en plus vu que la date d'expiration de ce blocage est bien 06 août pourquoi je ne suis toujours pas capable d'éditer ? Merci d'avance Dan.- (talk) 08:36, 23 August 2018 (UTC)

@ارژنگ: Bonjour, je n'ai pas souvenir d'un tel blocage (mon seul blocage le 4 aout 2018 à 6:22 était : 4 août 2018 à 08:22 Linedwell (discussion | contributions | bloquer) a bloqué globalement User:94.252.8.0/21 (expiration 06:22, 4 November 2018) (Open proxy)). Le blocage a été effectué suite à une utilisation de cette plage d'adresses IP pour nuire à l'encyclopédie. Cependant, si ce blocage continue à vous affecter, merci de me le faire savoir (s'il s'agit de cette adresse IP ou bien d'une autre) afin que je le retire. Cordialement, Linedwell ^[talk] 17:21, 23 August 2018 (UTC)

Demande de blocage global

Bonjour Linedwell, j'aimerais que mon compte principal FrankyLeRoutier soit soit bloqué globalement, j'ai fais deux demandes de requête qui ont été refusées Steward requests/Global#Global lock for FrankyLeRoutier, et donc si vous ne pouvez pas effectuer cette demande, est-ce-que vous connaissez un autre steward qui accepterait de réalisé ma requête, je ne tiens vraiment pas à faire des bêtises pour justifier mon blocage. Merci beaucoup pour votre compréhension à mes problèmes de contributions. Argosy (talk) 03:43, 12 September 2018 (UTC)

@FrankyLeRoutier: Bonjour. J'ai bien vu tes deux requêtes mais je ne suis malheureusement pas en mesure de les traiter moi-même. En effet, ton wiki d'origine étant le même que le mien, il m'est impossible en tant que Steward de traiter une requête de ce type. Je te conseille de tenter ta chance avec l'un des autres stewards (non dépendant de frwp) présent sur cette liste ou bien directement en envoyant un mail (en anglais) sur la liste des Stewards : Special:Contact/Stewards. En m'excusant de ne pas pouvoir t'aider davantage, Linedwell ^[talk] 05:59, 12 September 2018 (UTC)

Emergency in KaWiki

Dear steward,
Please read my explanation thoroughly. It is about an inexorable situation in the Georgian Wikipedia, the long-established. Every attempt to solve the problem locally fails again and again. So, please, do not be indifferent.
The requests are extraordinary, so I do not write on a general page, but personally.
Best regards, Deu. 18:02, 30 September 2018 (UTC)

The Affiliate-selected Board seats process welcomes your support

Hello. You are receiving this message because you are active in the field of translations <3 The movement needs you! The Nominations phase has started for the ongoing selection process of two Board members, and the timeline is quite tight.

A Translation Central is available to help translators figure out what's been covered and what's left to do. Over the course of the next few weeks, your attention on candidates' profiles is particularly welcome.

While there are four languages that are especially relevant for multiple affiliates (namely Arabic, French, Russian and Spanish), you can also add others. If you can't help: please see if you know anyone in your circle who could, and spread the word :) Thank you! Elitre (WMF) and Facilitators of ASBS 2019, 13:20, 18 April 2019 (UTC)

Please support the Affiliate-selected Board seats process

Hello. You are receiving this message because you are an esteemed Wikimedian translator. The movement needs you! The Nominations phase for the ongoing selection process of two Board members is almost over, so this is probably the last call for translations.

The profiles of the current candidates are the ones that need your attention now. Yes, this may be a slightly different topic than the ones you are used to work on, but this is the final stretch and this process needs all the help it can get.

While there are four languages that are especially relevant for multiple affiliates, Arabic, French, Russian, and Spanish, help for Chinese, Ukrainian, Bengali, Czech, Hungarian, Romanian, Italian, Korean, Portuguese, Polish, Farsi, German, Cantonese, Finnish, Hindi, Thai, Dutch, and Greek is also welcome. If you can't help: please see if you know anyone in your circle who could, and spread the word.

Compte global bloqué

Bonjour Linedwell. Tu as effectué en 2017 le blocage global de l'utilisatrice User:Penellope. Je n'arrive pas à trouver sur :fr de précisions quant à l'usage de ce blocage (pas de page d'aide ?), ni savoir comment l'indiquer correctement sur sa page (toujours ouverte à l'heure actuelle). Je voulais donc savoir si tu pouvais m'indiquer où chercher mieux ? Merci d'avance. Sammyday (talk) 12:24, 11 June 2019 (UTC)

Site à blacklister (suite)

Salut

En avril 2017, vous aviez blacklisté des URL de ISIS. Je n'avais pas la page en suivi donc je ne l'avais pas remarqué au bon moment, mais une IP l'avait ajouté, et finalement ça a été réverté après 5 jours en septembre 2017. Serait-il possible svp de blacklister par précaution l'URL ? J'ignore si le lien est toujours valide et je ne pourrais pas prendre le risque de m'y connecter.

Par ailleurs, faut-il demander la suppression sur en:wiki des liens vers ce site illicite ? Cordialement. --Panam2014 (talk) 20:09, 27 June 2019 (UTC)

@Panam2014: Bonjour. Le lien n'est plus valide il est donc superflu de l'ajouter à la blacklist à présent. Concernant le retrait de tels liens sur en.wp cela devrait être discuté sur le projet concerné, les stewards n'ayant pas dans leurs attributions de prendre ce genre de décision seuls.

A global lock on an account I blocked, but have now unblocked

I see that you have globally locked the account Møstbarr following a report at Steward requests/Global. I had earlier blocked the account on English Wikipedia, but I have now received further information which has led me to think I may have been mistaken, so I have unblocked the account. I don't know how much, if at all, my block influenced your decision to globally lock the account, but if your decision was significantly based on my block then you may like to consider whether there is enough evidence without my block to justify the lock, or whether you should lift it. JBW (talk) 12:15, 17 December 2020 (UTC)

Hi, just to notify you that you've been tricked by Leunirba. It's a Lascava/MaoMio sock that is now asking steward to lock all the users that revert his vandalisms. And you did it! Hopefull he's blocked right now. Cheers --Ruthven (msg) 17:33, 17 December 2020 (UTC)

Blocking for edit in Wikipedia

Hello. I send a mail in February 5, about a IP edit blocking. I write you because this blocking continues and I can´t edit in WP. The mail was this:

Hello. My name is Sergio Arenas Benavides, from Chile, and my user profile is Xarucoponce. I write because can't edit in the Wikipedia app, because my IP appears blocked, because my phone IP is included in a list of blocked directions. I'm not English speaker, so I couldn't explain well my situation, so I send the message that appeared in my app (in Spanish). So, I beg you to quit me of the situation and I can edit again in the WP app. Sincerely yours,

@Linedwell Hi, since I have seen that you have a page on Yiddish Wikipedia is possible to create an article there for Hellenic Vehicle Industry (ELVO) on this link: https://yi.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D7%94%D7%A2%D7%9C%D7%9C%D7%A2%D7%A0%D7%99%D7%A7_%D7%A4%D7%90%D6%B8%D7%A8%D7%9E%D7%99%D7%98%D7%9C_%D7%90%D7%99%D7%A0%D7%93%D7%95%D7%A1%D7%98%D7%A8%D7%99%D7%A2 because I have created it but it was deleted since I used translator. Or you may reach this person: https://yi.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D7%91%D7%90%D6%B7%D7%A0%D7%99%D7%A6%D7%A2%D7%A8_%D7%A8%D7%A2%D7%93%D7%9F:%D7%90%D7%95%D7%A0%D7%92%D7%90%D7%A8%D7%99%D7%A9%D7%A2%D7%A8 which you have communicated on talk page which he has edited some car-related pages on Yiddish Wikipedia. I would be so happy if this article would be created on Yiddish Wikipedia.

Hello, I'm sorry but I can't speak yiddish. Linedwell ^[talk] 16:50, 28 April 2022 (UTC)

Hello

Hello, could I have more reason on my IP block? What exactly was the cross-wiki abuse? I do believe the block was genuine, but I have no edits

I didn't even notice the block until now, actually. I don't normally edit wikipedia.

Hello, as I told on the steward request, this block have already been softened to affect only anonymous edits, you can avoid it by creating an account. Regards, Linedwell ^[talk] 13:05, 29 May 2022 (UTC)

But I can't create accounts, it also blocks me on doing that. And, why was I blocked in the first place? 2001:44C8:4510:4117:1734:4B26:7A3:CBC7 14:16, 29 May 2022 (UTC)

The block wasn't directed at you specifically, but as an IP range used in february for cross wiki vandalism. Linedwell ^[talk] 18:10, 29 May 2022 (UTC)

Anyway, I have unblocked this range, you should now be able to contribute to Wikipedia as expected. Linedwell ^[talk] 18:21, 29 May 2022 (UTC)

Thank you. BoxOfNotes (talk) 09:34, 30 May 2022 (UTC)

2017 blacklist entry for ISIL-affiliated domains

In response to accusations of legal threats, a user at enwiki asked about the reason that you accepted this addition to the global spam blacklist for a family of ISIS-affiliated websites after this request at frwiki. Was it because of legal concerns, because (as detailed at this enwiki thread for their local spam blacklist) the domains are too short-lived, or simply because there is no encyclopedic value in linking to terrorist-affiliated websites? LaundryPizza03 (talk) 01:53, 13 November 2022 (UTC)

@LaundryPizza03: Hello, if I remember well, the reason why I added those URLs to the global spam blocklist was the risk of global spam / propaganda from those websites. It would have been the same if it was about warez sites or any commercials. Regards, Linedwell ^[talk] 01:59, 13 November 2022 (UTC)

But these contents are illegal too. Panam2014 (talk) 02:27, 13 November 2022 (UTC)

Of course, I just told it wasn't the only reason. Linedwell ^[talk] 09:18, 13 November 2022 (UTC)
