[[File:Octicons-tools.svg|20px|alt=]] '''Technical news'''
* The tag filter on [[Special:NewPages]] and revision history pages can now be inverted. This allows hiding edits made by automated tools. ({{phab|T334338}})
* [[Special:BlockedExternalDomains]] is a new tool that allows easier blocking of plain domains (and their subdomains). This is more easily searchable and is faster for the software to use than the existing [[MediaWiki:Spam-blacklist|MediaWiki:Spam-blacklist]]. It does not support regex (for complex cases), URL path-matching, or the [[MediaWiki:Spam-whitelist|MediaWiki:Spam-whitelist]]. ({{phab|T337431}})

[[File:Scale of justice 2.svg|20px|alt=]] '''Arbitration'''
* The arbitration cases named [[Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Scottywong|Scottywong]] and [[Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/AlisonW|AlisonW]] closed 10 July and 16 July respectively.
* The [[Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/SmallCat dispute|SmallCat dispute]] arbitration case is in the workshop phase.

* '''Discussions'''
** New requests for permissions/Bot:
*** [[d:Wikidata:Requests for permissions/Bot/MangadexBot|MangadexBot]] (Task: add metadata from mangadex to manga with [[d:Property:P10589|Mangadex manga ID]])
*** [[d:Wikidata:Requests for permissions/Bot/WingUCTBOT|WingUCTBOT]] (Task: Batch Upload of Niger-Congo B Lexemes, including Senses and Forms)

** Upcoming:
*** Wikimania 2023 (16–19 August, Singapore and Online) program is out: [[wikimania:2023:Program|wikimania:2023:Program]]
*** Next Linked Data for Libraries LD4 Wikidata Affinity Group Working Hour August 18, 2023: Over the summer and into the fall the LD4 Wikidata Affinity Group will be offering a series of Wikidata Working Hours to give folks an opportunity to try out various Wikidata-related skills and tools by assembling a data set of diverse library and information science (LIS) materials (articles, conference proceedings, books) and adding it to Wikidata. Wikidata Working Hours provide hands-on Wikidata experience in a supportive space. We hope you will join us if you are interested in learning more about Wikidata, exploring LIS literature, and have been looking for a fun Wikidata project to contribute to. The first Wikidata Working Hour in the series will cover creating a bibliography of diverse LIS articles and books. We will generate a spreadsheet of sources ready for use during subsequent Working Hours. This session will be recorded and the recording shared on the event page.

Administrators' newsletter – June 2023[edit]

News and updates for administrators from the past month (May 2023).

Guideline and policy news

  • Following an RfC, editors indefinitely site-banned by community consensus will now have all rights, including sysop, removed.
  • As a part of the Wikimedia Foundation's IP Masking project, a new policy has been created that governs the access to temporary account IP addresses. An associated FAQ has been created and individual communities can increase the requirements to view temporary account IP addresses.

Technical news

  • Bot operators and tool maintainers should schedule time in the coming months to test and update their tools for the effects of IP masking. IP masking will not be deployed to any content wiki until at least October 2023 and is unlikely to be deployed to the English Wikipedia until some time in 2024.

Arbitration

  • The arbitration case World War II and the history of Jews in Poland has been closed. The topic area of Polish history during World War II (1933-1945) and the history of Jews in Poland is subject to a "reliable source consensus-required" contentious topic restriction.

Technical news

  • The tag filter on Special:NewPages and revision history pages can now be inverted. This allows hiding edits made by automated tools. (T334338)
  • Special:BlockedExternalDomains is a new tool that allows easier blocking of plain domains (and their subdomains). This is more easily searchable and is faster for the software to use than the existing MediaWiki:Spam-blacklist. It does not support regex (for complex cases), URL path-matching, or the MediaWiki:Spam-whitelist. (T337431)

Administrators' newsletter – September 2023[edit]

News and updates for administrators from the past month (August 2023).

Guideline and policy news

  • Following an RfC, TFAs will be automatically semi-protected the day before it is on the main page and through the day after.
  • A discussion at WP:VPP about revision deletion and oversight for dead names found that [s]ysops can choose to use revdel if, in their view, it's the right tool for this situation, and they need not default to oversight. But oversight could well be right where there's a particularly high risk to the person. Use your judgment.

Technical news

  • Special:Contributions now shows the user's local edit count and the account's creation date. (T324166)

Arbitration

  • The SmallCat dispute case has closed. As part of the final decision, editors participating in XfD have been reminded to be careful about forming local consensus which may or may not reflect the broader community consensus. Regular closers of XfD forums were also encouraged to note when broader community discussion, or changes to policies and guidelines, would be helpful.

Miscellaneous

  • Tech tip: The "Browse history interactively" banner shown at the top of Special:Diff can be used to easily look through a history, assemble composite diffs, or find out what archive something wound up in.
