Leeds Wikipedia meetup on Saturday 4th May[edit]

Hello there! Interested in having a chat with fellow Wikipedians? There's a meetup in Leeds on Saturday 4th May 2024, at the Tiled Hall Café at Leeds Central Library.

Full details here.

You're receiving this one-off message as you're either a member of WikiProject Yorkshire, you've expressed an interest in a previous Leeds meetup years ago, or (for about 4 of you), we've met :)

I plan to organise more in future, so if you'd like to be notified next time, please say so over on the meetup page.

Please also invite any Wikimedia people you know (or have had wiki dealings with) – spread the word! Hope to see you there.

Range block on corporate web gateway software[edit]

Hi,
There is now a block that appears to be a recent addition, on the address range 161.69.0.0/16, that affects even non-anonymous editors. Not sure why I haven't encountered it until today, as the culprit seems to be our company's use of McAfee Web Gateway Cloud Service, which has been deployed for quite awhile, and cannot be turned off by end users on their systems.

Since I use all my "good" computers for work-from-home, I am required to have the software installed on those computers, and again: can't be turned off. So if choose to edit (off the company clock, I hasten to add), I now have to resort to my broken-down, tiny-screened, 5-minute-battery life laptop that does not have WGCS installed.

Yes, this is the classic definition of a first-world problem. But still.

Is there any way to have this ban not affect logged-in users? I'm also curious if this only affects my company (AMD), or if it's endemic to any company deploying WGCS. Regards, NapoliRoma (talk) 01:38, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@NapoliRoma. I understand. I’ve amended the block to enable logged in users to edit. Malcolmxl5 (talk) 12:42, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! --NapoliRoma (talk) 16:39, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
