== [[Armed Forces Special Weapons Project]] scheduled for TFA ==

This is to let you know that the [[Armed Forces Special Weapons Project]] article has been scheduled as [[WP:TFA|today's featured article]] for January 1, 2021. Please check the article needs no amendments. If you're interested in editing the main page text, you're welcome to do so at [[Wikipedia:Today's featured article/January 1, 2021]], but note that a coordinator will trim the lead to around 1000 characters anyway, so you aren't obliged to do so. 

For Featured Articles promoted recently, there will be an existing blurb linked from the FAC talk page, which is likely to be transferred to the TFA page by a coordinator at some point.

We suggest that you watchlist [[Wikipedia:Main Page/Errors]] from the day before this appears on Main Page. Thanks!

Hi Hawkeye, Ibox says final date 6 May 1959, but last para has "(DASA), which replaced the AFSWP on 1 May 1959." The ref for that (Brahmstedt) has both dates: "May 6, 1959. AFSWP formerly changes to DASA" (it's meant to be formally?) but also has "On May 1, 1959, with the endorsement of Deputy Defense Secretary Quarles, AFSWP aquired a new name: the Defense Atomic Support Agency (DASA)" and "The change from AFSWP to DASA on May 1, 1959 was soon accompanied...".

:Wow. I've looked at the History of the Office of the Secretary of Defense [https://history.defense.gov/Portals/70/Documents/secretaryofdefense/OSDSeries_Vol4.pdf] p. 446 says 1 May 1959. Footnote 4 points to a 1 May memo on p. 896.

::I feel your pain! Maybe just change infobox to plain May and leave last para as is? More importantly, the change in lede from 1958 to 59 is correct either way and the 1958 is in the TFA blurb (today for us but 11 am for those who are sooo last year, 2020.

Latest '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News|tech news]]''' from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2021/02|Translations]] are available.

'''Recent changes'''
* You can choose to be reminded when you have not added an edit summary. This can be done in your preferences. This could conflict with the [[:w:en:CAPTCHA|CAPTCHA]]. This has now been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T12729]
* You can link to specific log entries. You can get these links for example by clicking the timestamps in the log. Until now, such links to private log entries showed no entry even if you had permission to view private log entries. The links now show the entry. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T269761]
* Admins can use the [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:AbuseFilter|abuse filter tool]] to automatically prevent bad edits. Three changes happened last week:
** The filter editing interface now shows syntax errors while you type. This is similar to JavaScript pages. It also shows a warning for regular expressions that match the empty string. New warnings will be added later. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T187686]
** [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Meta:Oversighters|Oversighters]] can now hide multiple filter log entries at once using checkboxes on [[Special:AbuseLog]]. This is how the usual revision deletion works. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T260904]
** When a filter matches too many actions after it has been changed it is "throttled". The most powerful actions are disabled. This is to avoid many editors getting blocked when an administrator made a mistake. The administrator will now get a notification about this "throttle".
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] There is a new tool to [https://skins.wmflabs.org/?#/add build new skins]. You can also [https://skins.wmflabs.org/?#/ see] existing [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Manual:Skins|skins]]. You can [[mw:User talk:Jdlrobson|give feedback]]. [https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2020-December/094130.html]
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] Bots using the API no longer watch pages automatically based on account preferences. Setting the <code>watchlist</code> to <code>watch</code> will still work. This is to reduce the size of the watchlist data in the database. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T258108]
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Scribunto|Scribunto's]] [[:mw:Extension:Scribunto/Lua reference manual#File metadata|file metadata]] now includes length. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T209679]
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] [[:w:en:CSS|CSS]] and [[:w:en:JavaScript|JavaScript]] code pages now have link anchors to [https://patchdemo.wmflabs.org/wikis/40e4795d4448b55a6d8c46ff414bcf78/w/index.php/MediaWiki:En.js#L-125 line numbers]. You can use wikilinks like [[:w:en:MediaWiki:Common.js#L-50]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T29531]
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|Recurrent item]] There was a [[mw:MediaWiki 1.36/wmf.25|new version]] of MediaWiki last week. You can read [[mw:MediaWiki 1.36/wmf.25/Changelog|a detailed log]] of all 763 changes. Most of them are very small and will not affect you.

'''Changes later this week'''
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|Recurrent item]] The [[mw:MediaWiki 1.36/wmf.26|new version]] of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from {{#time:j xg|2021-01-12|en}}. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from {{#time:j xg|2021-01-13|en}}. It will be on all wikis from {{#time:j xg|2021-01-14|en}} ([[mw:MediaWiki 1.36/Roadmap|calendar]]).

== Possible Bugle op-ed ==

Thanks for the encouraging and prompt reply on the MH talk page. I may make time for the Bugle in the next couple of weeks. I'm retired, and I alternate between a month or two of full-time WP and a similar (or greater) amount of time of full-time online gaming. If I do something brief but informative it would be a lot like the intro paragraphs to [[List of coastal fortifications of the United States]]. I wrote those well after doing most of the listicle, after I noticed that an intro to the subject is OK in a list article. I also had some idea of developing it into an FL.

'''Changes later this week'''
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|Recurrent item]] The [[mw:MediaWiki 1.36/wmf.27|new version]] of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from {{#time:j xg|2021-01-19|en}}.

'''Future changes'''
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Growth|Growth team]] plans to add features to [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Growth/Personalized first day/Newcomer tasks/Experiment analysis, November 2020|get more visitors to edit]] to more Wikipedias. You can help [https://translatewiki.net/w/i.php?title=Special:Translate&group=ext-growthexperiments&language=&filter=&action=translate translating the interface].
* You will be able to read but not to edit Wikimedia Commons for a short time on [https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20210126T07 {{#time:j xg|2021-01-26|en}} at 07:00 (UTC)]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T271791]
* [[m:Special:MyLanguage/MassMessage|MassMessage]] posts could be automatically timestamped in the future. This is because MassMessage senders can now send pages using MassMessage. Pages are more difficult to sign. If there are times when a MassMessage post should not be timestamped you can [[phab:T270435|let the developers know]].

<section begin="technews-2021-W05"/><div class="plainlinks mw-content-ltr" lang="en" dir="ltr"><div class="plainlinks">
Latest '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News|tech news]]''' from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2021/05|Translations]] are available.

'''Problems'''
* [[:w:en:IPv6|IPv6 addresses]] were written in lowercase letters in diffs. This caused dead links since [[Special:Contributions|Special:Contributions]] only accepted uppercase letters for the IPs. This has been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T272225]

'''Changes later this week'''
* You can soon use Wikidata to link to pages on the multilingual Wikisource. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T138332]
* Often editors use a "non-breaking space" to make a gap between two items when reading but still show them together. This can be used to avoid a line break. You will now be able to add new ones via the special character tool in the 2010, 2017, and visual editors. The character will be shown in the visual editor as a space with a grey background. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T70429][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T96666]
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=| Advanced item]] Wikis use [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:AbuseFilter|abuse filters]] to stop bad edits being made. Filter maintainers can now use syntax like <code>1.2.3.4 - 1.2.3.55</code> as well as the <code>1.2.3.4/27</code> syntax for IP ranges. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T218074]
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|Recurrent item]] The [[mw:MediaWiki 1.36/wmf.29|new version]] of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from {{#time:j xg|2021-02-02|en}}. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from {{#time:j xg|2021-02-03|en}}. It will be on all wikis from {{#time:j xg|2021-02-04|en}} ([[mw:MediaWiki 1.36/Roadmap|calendar]]).

'''Future changes'''
* [[mw:Skin:Minerva Neue|Minerva]] is the skin Wikimedia wikis use for mobile traffic. When a page is protected and you can't edit it you can normally read the source wikicode. This doesn't work on Minerva on mobile devices. This is being fixed. Some text might overlap. This is because your community needs to update [[MediaWiki:Protectedpagetext|MediaWiki:Protectedpagetext]] to work on mobile. You can [[phab:T208827|read more]]. [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Recommendations_for_mobile_friendly_articles_on_Wikimedia_wikis#Inline_styles_should_not_use_properties_that_impact_sizing_and_positioning][https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Recommendations_for_mobile_friendly_articles_on_Wikimedia_wikis#Avoid_tables_for_anything_except_data]
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] [[:wikitech:Portal:Cloud VPS|Cloud VPS]] and [[:wikitech:Portal:Toolforge|Toolforge]] will change the IP address they use to contact the wikis. The new IP address will be <code>185.15.56.1</code>. This will happen on February 8. You can [[:wikitech:News/CloudVPS NAT wikis|read more]].

== Douglas MacArthur ==

I don't understand why I need to "take it to the talk page". I explained my reasoning very simply. The "Category:American anti-communists" was deleted due due to [[WP:TNT]] and it stated that "delete without prejudice to re-creation, either with this name or 'activists'" [[User:LittleJerry|LittleJerry]] ([[User talk:LittleJerry|talk]]) 02:01, 2 February 2021 (UTC)
:I don't know what that means, and I don't know what the category means either. Membership in a particular organisation? Precisely define the criteria for membership in the category, and I'll tell you whether MacArthur belongs in it or not.

'''Recent changes'''
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Apps|Wikipedia app]] for Android now has watchlists and talk pages in the app. [https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.wikipedia]

'''Changes later this week'''
* You can see edits to chosen pages on [[Special:Watchlist|Special:Watchlist]]. You can add pages to your watchlist on every wiki you like. The [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:GlobalWatchlist|GlobalWatchlist]] extension will come to Meta on 11 February. There you can see entries on watched pages on different wikis on the same page. The new watchlist will be found on [[m:Special:GlobalWatchlist|Special:GlobalWatchlist]] on Meta. You can choose which wikis to watch and other preferences on [[m:Special:GlobalWatchlistSettings|Special:GlobalWatchlistSettings]] on Meta. You can watch up to five wikis. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T260862]
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|Recurrent item]] The [[mw:MediaWiki 1.36/wmf.30|new version]] of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from {{#time:j xg|2021-02-09|en}}.

'''Future changes'''
* When admins [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Protecting and unprotecting pages|protect]] pages the form will use the [[mw:UX standardization|OOUI look]]. [[Special:Import|Special:Import]] will also get the new look. This will make them easier to use on mobile phones. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T235424][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T108792]
* Some services will not work for a short period of time from 07:00 UTC on 17 February. There might be problems with new [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia URL Shortener|short links]], new translations, new notifications, adding new items to your [[mw:Reading/Reading Lists|reading lists]] or recording [[:w:en:Email#Tracking of sent mail|email bounces]]. This is because of database maintenance. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T273758]
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] [[m:Tech/News/2021/05|Last week]] Tech News reported that the IP address [[:wikitech:Portal:Cloud VPS|Cloud VPS]] and [[:wikitech:Portal:Toolforge|Toolforge]] use to contact the wikis will change on 8 February. This is delayed. It will happen later instead. [https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/News/CloudVPS_NAT_wikis]

== Your [[WP:Good articles|GA]] nomination of [[Broad front versus narrow front controversy in World War II]] ==
The article [[Broad front versus narrow front controversy in World War II]] you nominated as a [[Wikipedia:Good article nominations|good article]] has been placed on hold [[File:Symbol wait.svg|20px]]. The article is close to meeting the [[WP:GA?|good article criteria]], but there are some minor changes or clarifications needing to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass; otherwise it may fail. See [[Talk:Broad front versus narrow front controversy in World War II]] for issues which need to be addressed. <!-- Template:GANotice result=hold --> <small>Message delivered by [[User:Legobot|Legobot]], on behalf of [[User:Hog Farm|Hog Farm]]</small> -- [[User:Hog Farm|Hog Farm]] ([[User talk:Hog Farm|talk]]) 19:22, 1 March 2021 (UTC)

== WikiCup 2021 March newsletter ==

Round 1 of the competition has finished; it was a high-scoring round with 21 contestants scoring more than 100 points.  Everyone with a positive score moves on to Round 2, with 55 contestants qualifying. You will need to finish among the top thirty-two contestants in Round 2 if you are to qualify for Round 3. Our top scorers in Round 1 were:   

*{{flagicon|New York (state)}} [[User:Epicgenius|Epicgenius]] led the field with a featured article, nine good articles and an assortment of other submissions, specialising on buildings and locations in New York, for a total of 945 points.
*{{flagicon|Republic of Venice|wartime}} [[User:Bloom6132|Bloom6132]] was close behind with 896 points, largely gained from 71 "In the news" items, mostly recent deaths.
*{{flagicon|Scotland}} [[User:ImaginesTigers|ImaginesTigers]], who has been editing Wikipedia for less than a year, was in third place with 711 points, much helped by bringing [[League of Legends]] to featured article status, exemplifying how bonus points can boost a contestant's score.
*{{flagicon|Rwanda}} [[User:Amakuru|Amakuru]] came next with 708 points, [[Kigali]] being another featured article that scored maximum bonus points.
*[[File:Flag of the United Nations.svg|22px]] [[User:Ktin|Ktin]], new to the WikiCup, was in fifth place with 523 points, garnered from 15 DYKs and 34 "In the news" items.
*{{flagicon|Botswana}} [[User:The Rambling Man|The Rambling Man]] scored 511 points, many from featured article candidate reviews and from football related DYKs.
*[[File:Standard of Oliver Cromwell (1653–1659).svg|22px]] [[User:Gog the Mild|Gog the Mild]], last year's runner-up, came next with 498 points, from a featured article and numerous featured article candidate reviews.
*[[File:Bennington Flag.svg|22px]] [[User:Hog Farm|Hog Farm]], at 452, scored for a featured article, four good articles and a number of reviews.
*{{flagicon|United States}} [[User:Le Panini|Le Panini]], another newcomer to the WikiCup, scored 438 for a featured article and three good articles.
*{{flagicon|England}} [[User:Lee Vilenski|Lee Vilenski]], last year's champion, scored 332 points, from a featured article and various other sport-related topics.

These contestants, like all the others, now have to start again from scratch. In Round 1, contestants achieved eight featured articles, three featured lists and one featured picture, as well as around two hundred DYKs and twenty-seven ITNs. They completed 97 good article reviews, nearly double the 52 good articles they claimed. Contestants also claimed for 135 featured article and featured list candidate reviews. There is no longer a requirement to mention your WikiCup participation when undertaking these reviews. 

Remember that any content promoted after the end of Round 1 but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2. Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. Remember, if two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is a good article candidate, a featured process, or something else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews]].

If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to keep down the review backlogs! Questions are welcome on [[Wikipedia talk:WikiCup]], and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email.

'''Recent changes'''
* [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Content translation/Section translation|Section translation]] now works on Bengali Wikipedia. It helps mobile editors translate sections of articles. It will come to more wikis later. The first focus is active wikis with a smaller number of articles. You can [https://sx.wmflabs.org/index.php/Main_Page test it] and [[mw:Talk:Content translation/Section translation|leave feedback]].
* [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:FlaggedRevs|Flagged revisions]] now give admins the review right. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T275293]
* When someone links to a Wikipedia article on Twitter this will now show a preview of the article. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T276185]

'''Problems'''
* Many graphs have [[:w:en:JavaScript|JavaScript]] errors. Graph editors can check their graphs in their browser's developer console after editing. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T275833]

'''Changes later this week'''
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|Recurrent item]] The [[mw:MediaWiki 1.36/wmf.34|new version]] of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from {{#time:j xg|2021-03-09|en}}. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from {{#time:j xg|2021-03-10|en}}. It will be on all wikis from {{#time:j xg|2021-03-11|en}} ([[mw:MediaWiki 1.36/Roadmap|calendar]]).
* The [[mw:Talk pages project/New discussion|New Discussion]] tool will soon be a new [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:DiscussionTools|discussion tools]] beta feature for on most Wikipedias. The goal is to make it easier to start new discussions. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T275257]

'''Future changes'''
* There will be a number of changes to make it easier to work with templates. Some will come to the first wikis in March. Other changes will come to the first wikis in June. This is both for those who use templates and those who create or maintain them. You can [[:m:WMDE Technical Wishes/Templates|read more]].
* [[m:WMDE Technical Wishes/ReferencePreviews|Reference Previews]] will become a default feature on some wikis on 17 March. They will share a setting with [[mw:Page Previews|Page Previews]]. If you prefer the Reference Tooltips or Navigation-Popups gadget you can keep using them. If so Reference Previews won't be shown. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T271206][https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:WMDE_Technical_Wishes/ReferencePreviews]
* New JavaScript-based functions will not work in [[:w:en:Internet Explorer 11|Internet Explorer 11]]. This is because Internet Explorer is an old browser that doesn't work with how JavaScript is written today. Everything that works in Internet Explorer 11 today will continue working in Internet Explorer for now. You can [[mw:Compatibility/IE11|read more]].

== Notability Q ==
Hi, Hawkeye, hope all is well. Any thoughts on the notability of [[Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Space Acquisition and Integration]]? I do suspect there's an argument to be made for keeping any of these offices, but I am not sure how specific those articles should get. What do you think? Best, [[User:Eddie891|Eddie891]] <small>''<sup> [[User talk:Eddie891|Talk]]</sup> <sub>[[Special:Contributions/Eddie891|Work]]</sub>'' </small> 23:00, 13 March 2021 (UTC)

:All is fine here. I live in a city that is a COVID-free bubble, and can travel anywhere in Australia. However, the Olympics looks out of the question. {{smiley|sad}} In answer to your question, there's got to be a limit as to how low in the hierarchy one can descend, but looking at [[Assistant Secretary of the Air Force (Acquisition, Technology and Logistics)]] shows that (besides "other stuff exists") the occupant at that level is usually notable in their own right. The incumbent has no article, but appears notable. [https://www.af.mil/About-Us/Biographies/Display/Article/587778/shawn-j-barnes/] The position is established by statue and will probably be around for a while. So I would vote to keep it. [[User:Hawkeye7|<span style="color:#800082">Hawkeye7</span>]] [[User_talk:Hawkeye7|<span style="font-size:80%">(discuss)</span>]] 23:37, 13 March 2021 (UTC)
::Thanks, Hawkeye. Things in upstate New York have been slowly re-opening, though nowhere near covid free-- several members of my family were sick in January, though thankfully everyone is fine. Seems reasonable to keep the article, then. Cheers and stay well, [[User:Eddie891|Eddie891]] <small>''<sup> [[User talk:Eddie891|Talk]]</sup> <sub>[[Special:Contributions/Eddie891|Work]]</sub>'' </small> 01:14, 14 March 2021 (UTC)

'''Recent changes'''
* Wikis that are part of the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements|desktop improvements]] project can now use a new [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements/Features/Search|search function]]. The desktop improvements and the new search will come to more wikis later. You can also [[mw:Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements#Deployment plan and timeline|test it early]].
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] Editors who put up banners or change site-wide [[:w:en:JavaScript|JavaScript]] code should use the [https://grafana.wikimedia.org/d/000000566/overview?viewPanel=16&orgId=1 client error graph] to see that their changes has not caused problems.

'''Problems'''
* Due to [[phab:T276968|database issues]] the [https://meta.wikimedia.beta.wmflabs.org Wikimedia Beta Cluster] was read-only for over a day.

'''Changes later this week'''
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|Recurrent item]] The [[mw:MediaWiki 1.36/wmf.34|new version]] of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from {{#time:j xg|2021-03-16|en}}. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from {{#time:j xg|2021-03-17|en}}. It will be on all wikis from {{#time:j xg|2021-03-18|en}} ([[mw:MediaWiki 1.36/Roadmap|calendar]]).

'''Future changes'''
* You can add a [[:w:en:Newline|newline]] or [[:w:en:Carriage return|carriage return]] character to a custom signature if you use a template. There is a proposal to not allow them in the future. This is because they can cause formatting problems. [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/New_requirements_for_user_signatures#Additional_proposal_(2021)][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T272322]
* You will be able to read but not edit [[phab:T276899|12 wikis]] for a short period of time on [https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20210323T06 {{#time:j xg|2021-03-23|en}} at 06:00 (UTC)]. This could take 30 minutes but will probably be much faster.
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] You can use [https://quarry.wmflabs.org/ Quarry] for [[:w:en:SQL|SQL]] queries to the [[wikitech:Wiki replicas|Wiki Replicas]]. Cross-database <code>JOINS</code> will no longer work from 23 March. There will be a new field to specify the database to connect to.

'''Recent changes'''
* There is a [[mw:Wikipedia for KaiOS|Wikipedia app]] for [[:w:en:KaiOS|KaiOS]] phones. They don't have a touch screen so readers navigate with the phone keys. There is now a [https://wikimedia.github.io/wikipedia-kaios/sim.html simulator] so you can see what it looks like.
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Talk pages project/Replying|reply tool]] and [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Talk pages project/New discussion|new discussion tool]] are now available as the "{{int:discussiontools-preference-label}}" [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures|beta feature]] in almost all wikis except German Wikipedia.

'''Problems'''
* You will be able to read but not edit [[phab:T276899|twelve wikis]] for a short period of time on [https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20210323T06 {{#time:j xg|2021-03-23|{{PAGELANGUAGE}}}} at 06:00 (UTC)]. This can also affect password changes, logging in to new wikis, global renames and changing or confirming emails. This could take 30 minutes but will probably be much faster.

'''Changes later this week'''

* [[:w:en:Syntax highlighting|Syntax highlighting]] colours will change to be easier to read. This will soon come to the [[phab:T276346|first wikis]]. [https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WMDE_Technical_Wishes/Improved_Color_Scheme_of_Syntax_Highlighting]

'''Future changes'''
* [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:FlaggedRevs|Flagged revisions]] will no longer have multiple tags like "tone" or "depth". It will also only have one tier. This was changed because very few wikis used these features and they make the tool difficult to maintain. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T185664][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T277883]
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] Gadgets and user scripts can access variables about the current page in JavaScript. In 2015 this was moved from <code dir=ltr>wg*</code> to <code dir=ltr>mw.config</code>. <code dir=ltr>wg*</code> will soon no longer work. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T72470]

== Internal links ==

I don't think it's good practice to have two internal links, link the same word, but to two different pages. It feels to me to be against the [[WP:Principle of Some Astonishment]]. Also, [[MOS:LINKCLARITY]], and [[MOS:SUBMARINE]]. [[User:Lawrencekhoo|LK]] ([[User talk:Lawrencekhoo|talk]]) 04:06, 23 March 2021 (UTC)

== TFA ==

Thank you today for [[Manned Orbiting Laboratory]], "about the Manned Orbiting Laboratory, a US military space program of the 1960s. Much of it was shrouded in secrecy until 2015, when the National Reconnaissance Office began declassifying documents about it. This has enabled a comprehensive article to be written. In many ways, the MOL was harbinger of things to come, insofar as they spent a billion bucks with little to show for it. However, the article delivers a good deal to the reader. It contains a comprehensive account of the way that "black" projects were funded. There is also a food for thought about the relative roles of humans and automated systems. And about the US military space program, which was eclipsed by its NASA counterpart, but was, and remains, important."! --[[User:Gerda Arendt|Gerda Arendt]] ([[User talk:Gerda Arendt|talk]]) 12:49, 28 March 2021 (UTC)

'''Recent changes'''
* Some very old [[:w:en:Web browser|web browsers]] [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Compatibility|don’t work]] well with the Wikimedia wikis. Some old code for browsers that used to be supported is being removed. This could cause issues in those browsers. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T277803]

Users should also consider switching to the more modern [[:wikitech:Event Platform/EventStreams|EventStreams]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T224579]

'''Problems'''
* When you move a page that many editors have on their watchlist the history can be split. It might also not be possible to move it again for a while. This is because of a [[:w:en:Job queue|job queue]] problem. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T278350]
* Some translatable pages on Meta could not be edited. This was because of a bug in the translation tool. The new MediaWiki version was delayed because of problems like this. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T278429][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T274940]

== Bot article grading ==

Hi, I'm writing this here because I believe you're the owner of MilHistBot. An article, [[HMS Minerva (1805)]], I created in early March was graded B by the bot soon after, and between that time and now only one edit has been made to the article, that being a clean up of my messy referencing style. Today, the bot changed the article grade to a C based on not meeting the referencing and citation criterion. I don't really understand how this grade could change when nothing in the article has truly changed between the two gradings? 

Many thanks, [[User:Pickersgill-Cunliffe|Pickersgill-Cunliffe]] ([[User talk:Pickersgill-Cunliffe|talk]]) 02:43, 2 April 2021 (UTC)

:My fault. I changed the way that text was parsed to allow the Bot to manipulate tables (where newlines have significance). As a result, it could not find the newlines which it used to verify that the paragraphs had references. This permitted the article to be graded B class when it should not have been if it also met the B class rating in ORES. This error was easily corrected. (Find the newline tokens instead of text tokens containing newlines.) Today I told the Bot to re-check all the articles that it had graded B class since the original error was made. A couple of hundred B-class articles were regraded as C class based on not meeting the referencing and citation criterion. That article was one of them. It is also an article that I double-checked. Add the missing citation to the article and submit it for re-review at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Assessment/Requests]] [[User:Hawkeye7|<span style="color:#800082">Hawkeye7</span>]] [[User_talk:Hawkeye7|<span style="font-size:80%">(discuss)</span>]] 06:46, 2 April 2021 (UTC)

==Two articles downgraded from B to C==

Please could you tell me why this [[Sir Charles Asgill, 2nd Baronet]] and this [[Asgill Affair]]  have been downgraded from B to C, when the former has 120 references and the latter 107?  Both downgraded on the basis of "Referencing and citation: criterion not met". [[User:Arbil44|Anne]] ([[User talk:Arbil44|talk]]) 08:34, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
:They have unreferenced text. You can get a second opinion at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Assessment/Requests]]. But the Bot is correct. [[User:Hawkeye7|<span style="color:#800082">Hawkeye7</span>]] [[User_talk:Hawkeye7|<span style="font-size:80%">(discuss)</span>]] 10:30, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
::If you told me the deficiencies I would correct them in no time at all. Is it fair to make this statement without pointing out what needs to be done? [[User:Arbil44|Anne]] ([[User talk:Arbil44|talk]]) 11:54, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
:::I've tagged them with {{tl|citation required}} tags. The Bot doesn't do this because most C-class articles would get too many tags, and there is no reason to believe anyone is working on them.  [[User:Hawkeye7|<span style="color:#800082">Hawkeye7</span>]] [[User_talk:Hawkeye7|<span style="font-size:80%">(discuss)</span>]] 20:17, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
::::You are referring to "the majority" without making any allowance for the fact that you have done a hit-and-run-while-blindfolded on an editor who created the first of these two articles in 2007 and the second in 2021, and, indeed, has been working on the Asgill story for 20 years at a personal cost of ''well over'' £20k. Moreover, I am several times published on the subject, both in the US and the UK. These facts were on my userpage, had you taken the trouble to look, which clearly you did not.  No more though, since I became totally disenchanted by your tactics and have deleted all information there. I do not intend to have anything more to do with wp, other than mopping up other people's errors (of which there have been a staggering variety, even to changing the location of Charles Asgill's place of death, with absolutely '''no''' supporting evidence). 
::::Both articles were rated B, but you have downgraded them to C on the basis that ''neither of your "citations required" were valid, and there were only 2 of them anyway!''  All I have done is repeat the sources as many times as you appeared to want them repeated. I cannot create another extra source out of thin air, now can I? But none of this would have been necessary had you taken the time to read the text and absorb the citations - when all this would have been apparent to you.
::::An apology and a return of both articles to their previous 'B' status is requested. [[User:Arbil44|Anne]] ([[User talk:Arbil44|talk]]) 22:41, 2 April 2021 (UTC)

::::: How strange. The Bot is only supposed to assess new, unassessed articles. I will have to investigate why it selected an article that has been around since 2007. I have restored the B class rating to both articles, and you have my heartfelt apology for any hurt that may have been caused. Note from my user page that you are dealing with another published historian, but a 20th century one. (I am curious about why you picked this subject though.) [[User:Hawkeye7|<span style="color:#800082">Hawkeye7</span>]] [[User_talk:Hawkeye7|<span style="font-size:80%">(discuss)</span>]] 07:27, 3 April 2021 (UTC)

:::::::When a man, an innocent young man of only just 20 years old, is selected to go to the gallows, and he writes a letter to a newspaper, in which are the words "I want the world to know" appear - and that letter is hidden for 233 years to protect George Washington, well, it left me no option but to spend 12 years of my life to ensure that, after two and a half centuries, it got published. Against odds you would never imagine. My research trip to America also enabled me to establish just where that innocent man was imprisoned, and beaten, and humiliated constantly in a tavern well known as a hotbed of revolutionary ardour. Never before known information.  Never mind tracking down an original Hoppner portrait in the palace of a Saudi prince, in order to be able to photograph (and thereby identify) his wife, whose image had never before been known. Would you say all that was a driving force?  Rhetorical question because all this has been the straw that broke the camel's back, after a simply appalling 14 years here. I'm off now (as my userpage will attest), with high hopes that Professor Turi King (of Richard lll-in-the-car-park fame) is on the brink of agreeing to solve another mystery related to this story. I shall have a great time doing something that makes me happy, rather than miserable. [[User:Arbil44|Anne]] ([[User talk:Arbil44|talk]]) 11:41, 3 April 2021 (UTC)

* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Citoid|citoid]] [[:w:en:API|API]] will use for example <code>2010-12-XX</code> instead of <code>2010-12</code> for dates with a month but no days. This is because <code>2010-12</code> could be confused with <code>2010-2012</code> instead of <code>December 2010</code>.

* Email to the Wikimedia wikis are handled by groups of Wikimedia editors. These volunteer response teams now use [https://github.com/znuny/Znuny Znuny] instead of [[m:Special:MyLanguage/OTRS|OTRS]]. The functions and interface remain the same. The volunteer administrators will give more details about the next steps soon. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T279303][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T275294]
* If you use [[Mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror|syntax highlighting]], you can see line numbers in the 2010 and 2017 wikitext editors when editing templates. This is to make it easier to see line breaks or talk about specific lines. Line numbers will soon come to all namespaces. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T267911][https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WMDE_Technical_Wishes/Line_Numbering][https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:WMDE_Technical_Wishes/Line_Numbering]
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] Because of a technical change there could be problems with gadgets and scripts that have an edit summary area that looks [https://phab.wmfusercontent.org/file/data/llvdqqnb5zpsfzylbqcg/PHID-FILE-25vs4qowibmtysl7cbml/Screen_Shot_2021-04-06_at_2.34.04_PM.png similar to this one]. If they look strange they should use <code>mw.loader.using('mediawiki.action.edit.styles')</code> to go back to how they looked before. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T278898]
* The [[mw:MediaWiki 1.37/wmf.1|latest version]] of MediaWiki came to the Wikimedia wikis last week. There was no Tech News issue last week.

'''Changes later this week'''
*  There is no new MediaWiki version this week.

'''Future changes'''
* The user group <code>oversight</code> will be renamed <code>suppress</code>. This is for [[phab:T109327|technical reasons]]. This is the technical name. It doesn't affect what you call the editors with this user right on your wiki. This is planned to happen in two weeks. You can comment [[phab:T112147|in Phabricator]] if you have objections.

== Paul Odgers ==

Hi, Hawkeye. I was assessing [[Paul Odgers]], but unfortunately the dates of birth and death in the infobox, don't tally with those that are in the prose. I realised this when you say he died in 1967, but served under Margaret Thatcher in 1975, which is not possible if he had died. Sorry and thanks. [[User:The joy of all things|The joy of all things]] ([[User talk:The joy of all things|talk]]) 19:46, 21 April 2021 (UTC)

:Corrected. [[User:Hawkeye7|<span style="color:#800082">Hawkeye7</span>]] [[User_talk:Hawkeye7|<span style="font-size:80%">(discuss)</span>]] 20:00, 21 April 2021 (UTC)

== Future Perfect at Sunrise ==

I'm glad you've called him out.   The problem is that he inserts falsehoods into articles then protects them so that no one can take them out.   Gregorian calendar was protected by him '''five years ago'''.   Can you prevail upon an administrator to unprotect?   Failing that, can you remove the falsehoods if they are flagged?   Here's one example.   Prior to 2017 the article claimed:

{{xt|The Council of Trent approved a plan in 1563 for correcting the calendrical errors, requiring that the date of the vernal equinox be restored to that which it held at the time of the First Council of Nicaea in 325 and that an alteration to the calendar be designed to prevent future drift. This would allow for a more consistent and accurate scheduling of the feast of Easter.}} 

This was then changed to

{{xt|In 1545, the Council of Trent authorised Pope Paul III to reform the calendar, requiring that the date of the vernal equinox be restored to that which it held at the time of the First Council of Nicaea in 325 and that an alteration to the calendar be designed to prevent future drift. This would allow for more consistent and accurate scheduling of the feast of Easter.}}

The Council opened in 1545 and closed in 1563 so it appears these dates were plucked out of the air to give these unsourced falsehoods an appearance of authenticity.   You can read the actual decrees at [http://history.hanover.edu/texts/trent/trentall.html], from which you will see the claims are a complete fabrication.

== WikiCup 2021 May newsletter ==

The second round of the 2021 WikiCup has now finished; it was a high-scoring round and contestants needed 61 points to advance to Round 3. There were some impressive efforts in the round, with the top eight contestants all scoring more than 400 points. A large number of the points came from the 12 featured articles and the 110 good articles achieved in total by contestants, as well as the 216 good article reviews they performed; the GAN backlog drive and the stay-at-home imperative during the COVID-19 pandemic may have been partially responsible for these impressive figures.

Our top scorers in Round 2 were:

*{{flagicon|BWA}} [[User:The Rambling Man|The Rambling Man]], with 2963 points from three featured articles, 20 featured article reviews, 37 good articles, 73 good article reviews, as well as 22 DYKs.
*{{flagicon|New York (state)}} [[User:Epicgenius|Epicgenius]], with 1718 points from one featured article, 29 good articles, 16 DYKs and plenty of bonus points.
*{{flagicon|Republic of Venice|wartime}} [[User:Bloom6132|Bloom6132]], with 990 points from 13 DYKs and 64 "In the news" items, mostly recent deaths.
*[[File:Bennington Flag.svg|22px]] [[User:Hog Farm|Hog Farm]], with 834 points from two featured articles, five good articles, 14 featured article reviews and 15 good article reviews.
*[[File:Standard of Oliver Cromwell (1653–1659).svg|22px|England]] [[User:Gog the Mild|Gog the Mild]], with 524 points from two featured articles and four featured article reviews.
*{{flagicon|ENG}} [[User:Lee Vilenski|Lee Vilenski]], with 501 points from one featured article, three good articles, six featured article reviews and 25 good article reviews. 
*[[File:Transgender Pride flag.svg|22px]] [[User:Sammi Brie|Sammi Brie]], with 485 points from four good articles, eight good article reviews and 27 DYKs, on US radio and television stations.
*[[File:Flag of the United Nations.svg|22px]] [[User:Ktin|Ktin]], with 436 points from four good articles, seven DYKs and 11 "In the news" items. 

Please remember that DYKs cannot be claimed until they have appeared on the main page. As we enter the third round, any content promoted after the end of Round 2 but before the start of Round 3 can be claimed now, and anything you forgot to claim in Round 2 cannot! Remember too, that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them (except for at the end of each round, when you must claim them before the cut-off date/time). When doing GARs, please make sure that you check that all the GA criteria are fully met.

If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article nominations, a featured process, or anything else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed]] (remember to remove your listing when no longer required). Questions are welcome on [[Wikipedia talk:WikiCup]], and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email.

<section begin="tech-newsletter-content"/><div class="plainlinks">
Latest '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News|tech news]]''' from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2021/18|Translations]] are available.

'''Recent changes'''
* [[w:en:Wikipedia:Twinkle|Twinkle]] is a gadget on English Wikipedia. It can help with maintenance and patrolling. It can [[m:Grants:Project/Rapid/SD0001/Twinkle localisation/Report|now be used on other wikis]]. You can get Twinkle on your wiki using the [https://github.com/wikimedia-gadgets/twinkle-starter twinkle-starter] GitHub repository.

'''Problems'''
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Content translation|content translation tool]] did not work for many articles for a little while. This was because of a bug. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T281346]
* Some things will not work for about a minute on 5 May. This will happen [https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20210505T0600 around 06:00 UTC]. This will affect the content translation tool and notifications among other things. This is because of an upgrade to avoid crashes. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T281212]

'''Changes later this week'''
* [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Reference Previews|Reference Previews]] will become a default feature on a number of wikis on 5 May. This is later than planned because of some changes. You can use it without using [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Page Previews|Page Previews]] if you want to. The earlier plan was to have the preference to use both or none. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T271206][https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:WMDE_Technical_Wishes/ReferencePreviews]
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|Recurrent item]] The [[mw:MediaWiki 1.37/wmf.4|new version]] of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from {{#time:j xg|2021-05-04|en}}. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from {{#time:j xg|2021-05-05|en}}. It will be on all wikis from {{#time:j xg|2021-05-06|en}} ([[mw:MediaWiki 1.37/Roadmap|calendar]]).

'''Future changes'''
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] The [[:w:en:CSS|CSS]] classes <code dir=ltr>.error</code>, <code dir=ltr>.warning</code> and <code dir=ltr>.success</code> do not work for mobile readers if they have not been specifically defined on your wiki. From June they will not work for desktop readers. This can affect gadgets and templates. The classes can be defined in [[MediaWiki:Common.css]] or template styles instead.

Your interest in sports and paralympics articles has brought me to ask if you might have some time to look at the [[Yuzuru Hanyu]] article which I have recently nominated for GAN. With nearly 300 footnotes it looks like it would be a nice article to improve for good article approval in anticipation of the Winter Olympics taking place next February. If it looks ok to you then possibly you could consider doing the GA review for the nomination. Any interest? [[User:ErnestKrause|ErnestKrause]] ([[User talk:ErnestKrause|talk]]) 19:58, 6 April 2021 (UTC)
:Doesn't look like there'll be any Paralympics for me this year. {{smiley|sad}} I would have asked {{u|Figureskatingfan}} myself, as she is our resident expert on figure skating, and is responsible for everything I know about it, but I can take it on if she's busy. At a glance though, despite having 370 citations, there are still multiple uncited blocks, which will require referencing. [[User:Hawkeye7|<span style="color:#800082">Hawkeye7</span>]] [[User_talk:Hawkeye7|<span style="font-size:80%">(discuss)</span>]] 20:31, 6 April 2021 (UTC)
::After asking her last month, she was and is still busy with grad school exams for another month or two. Uncited blocks which you mention would need to all be addressed if a checklist could be set-up, in order for the article to be comparable to what Figureskatingfan did for [[Tara Lipinski]] in her efforts there. It would be nice for you to take on the article while Figureskatingfan is still busy with exams, if that sounds ok? [[User:ErnestKrause|ErnestKrause]] ([[User talk:ErnestKrause|talk]]) 20:47, 6 April 2021 (UTC)
:::Hey guys, what an honor to be called a figure skating expert. Yah, I'm busy but checking in every couple of days, so I saw your ping. Hawk, no Paralympics? How come? I watched it really for the first time in 2018 and loved it. I'm looking forward to watching it again this summer. I've put Yuzuru on my watchlist, and will try to do some work on it when my semester's finished in early May. He's so great, right? I think a better model would be [[Johnny Weir]], Yuzuru's hero, because there was more information about Johnny than there was about Tara, since her career was pre-internet. The other issue with Yuzuru's article is that so many of the sources are in Japanese, so I'll have to depend upon bad google translations, but at least we can get the gist of them. Anyway, I'm sure we'll talk more over the summer. [[User:Figureskatingfan|Christine (Figureskatingfan)]] ([[User talk:Figureskatingfan|talk]]) 04:32, 7 April 2021 (UTC)
:::: No air flights to Japan. {{smiley|sad}} I have media accreditation, but no official permission to travel. (No chance of getting a vaccination either, but that's not required for Japan.) So it looks like I'll watching it all on TV.

:::::Greetings Hawkeye. From the GA review for this article, it appear that Jasper has departed for real world obligations without leaving any note for us. It has been over a week without any message. I am writing because the article appears to be ready to move forward for pass-fail since all the edit issues have been addressed and there are no size issues with the article at this time, and there are other editors waiting for a response. Since you have still listed in some sense as the original review editor, could I ask you to take a look to see if you could do a pass-fail at this time? [[User:ErnestKrause|ErnestKrause]] ([[User talk:ErnestKrause|talk]]) 15:30, 10 May 2021 (UTC)
:::::: I still have some issues with the referencing of the article. If these are resolved I will pass it. Let me know if you would prefer a fail. I have placed the review on hold for now.

:::::::Nice of you to do such a thorough job at the Yuzuru Hanyu article leading to the positive outcome. When I had read through your Talk page last month, there appeared to be some articles you helped edit dealing with the Manhattan project and nuclear arms. Have you kept up any of this interest in the associated and related fields of strategic nuclear arms, tactical nuclear arms control, etc? [[User:ErnestKrause|ErnestKrause]] ([[User talk:ErnestKrause|talk]]) 15:12, 13 May 2021 (UTC)
:::::::: This was a major project I took on in 2021-2020, but it is all but complete now. [[User:Hawkeye7|<span style="color:#800082">Hawkeye7</span>]] [[User_talk:Hawkeye7|<span style="font-size:80%">(discuss)</span>]] 19:17, 13 May 2021 (UTC)
:::::::::The 3 related pages I was looking at were: [[Nuclear deterrence]], and, [[Nuclear optimism]], and [[Nuclear proliferation]]. These pages did not look that well put together and I was wondering if you had thoughts about improving them, or if you are finishing up with this topic? [[User:ErnestKrause|ErnestKrause]] ([[User talk:ErnestKrause|talk]]) 20:47, 13 May 2021 (UTC)

:::::::::: None of them was ever on my worklist, and being a military historian, only [[nuclear deterrence]] is in my field. [[User:Hawkeye7|<span style="color:#800082">Hawkeye7</span>]] [[User_talk:Hawkeye7|<span style="font-size:80%">(discuss)</span>]] 20:59, 13 May 2021 (UTC)
:::::::::::The current status of the subject of a [[nuclear deterrence]] article is that it does not exist except as a short, almost negligible section of the larger article on [[Deterrence]] which is not very well maintained or well written. The criticism section of that article seems also to lack a coherent organization. If you have thoughts for improving the article from the standpoint of nuclear deterrence then possibly let me know, unless you have moved on to your other articles.

Adding my congratulations on the promotion. Good work and well done Hawkeye7! You preserved through a long process. If I may make a suggestion, I think it would be best if the article not be added to the "Today's featured article" queue, as Nowak is now a private person out of the public eye, and it may not be appropriate to bring the spotlight back on her again.

== Battle of La Haye-du-Puits ==
Thanks, and you're on. Although this could be a bit of a slow burner. I am currently trying to wrap up two unrelated articles. ([[Third English Civil War]] and [[Battle of Halidon Hill]].) Once I have put them to bed I'll open a draft page and outline some ideas. How does that sound? [[User:Gog the Mild|Gog the Mild]] ([[User talk:Gog the Mild|talk]]) 10:24, 1 June 2021 (UTC)
:What sources do we have apart from Blumenson? [[User:Hawkeye7|<span style="color:#800082">Hawkeye7</span>]] [[User_talk:Hawkeye7|<span style="font-size:80%">(discuss)</span>]] 20:32, 1 June 2021 (UTC)

::Hard copies of:
::*''The Battle of the Hedgerows: Bradley's First Army in Normandy, June–July 1944'' by Leo Daugherty
::*''To the Last Man'' by Randolph Bradham, which is trite.
::*''Battle for St-Lo'' by Peter Yates
::*''St Lo 1944: The Battle of the Hedgerows'' by Stephen Zaloga
::*''The Germans in Normandy'' by Richard Hargreaves which is not bad.
::Plus several more general works which may be handy for background, weapons, opposing forces, prelude, aftermath etc.

::I haven't started searched for on line or official sources yet, so that is just what I have to hand. [[User:Gog the Mild|Gog the Mild]] ([[User talk:Gog the Mild|talk]]) 21:19, 1 June 2021 (UTC)

::And Nafziger's ''German Infantry OoB'' and other bits and pieces. [[User:Gog the Mild|Gog the Mild]] ([[User talk:Gog the Mild|talk]]) 21:21, 1 June 2021 (UTC)

::I'll stop now. You get the idea. [[User:Gog the Mild|Gog the Mild]] ([[User talk:Gog the Mild|talk]]) 21:36, 1 June 2021 (UTC)
:::I have created a page for the outline here - [[User:Gog the Mild/Battle of La Haye-du-Puits]]. Feel free to add, delete, change comment and make notes. Probably best to use the talk page there going forward. It will be a few days before I can give it a lot of attention and start filling in, at least in outline, some of the blanks; not that there is any rush.

Latest '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News|tech news]]''' from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2021/23|Translations]] are available.

'''Changes later this week'''
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|Recurrent item]] The [[mw:MediaWiki 1.37/wmf.9|new version]] of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from {{#time:j xg|2021-06-08|en}}. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from {{#time:j xg|2021-06-09|en}}. It will be on all wikis from {{#time:j xg|2021-06-10|en}} ([[mw:MediaWiki 1.37/Roadmap|calendar]]).

'''Future changes'''
* The Wikimedia movement uses [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Phabricator|Phabricator]] for technical tasks. This is where we collect technical suggestions, bugs and what developers are working on. The company behind Phabricator will stop working on it. This will not change anything for the Wikimedia movement now. It could lead to changes in the future. [https://lists.wikimedia.org/hyperkitty/list/wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org/message/YAXOD46INJLAODYYIJUVQWOZFIV54VUI/][https://admin.phacility.com/phame/post/view/11/phacility_is_winding_down_operations/][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T283980]
* Searching on Wikipedia will find more results in some languages. This is mainly true for when those who search do not use the correct [[:w:en:Diacritic|diacritics]] because they are not seen as necessary in that language. For example searching for <code>Bedusz</code> doesn't find <code>Będusz</code> on German Wikipedia. The character <code>ę</code> isn't used in German so many would write <code>e</code> instead. This will work better in the future in some languages. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T219550]
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] The [[:w:en:Cross-site request forgery|CSRF token parameters]] in the [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/API:Main page|action API]] were changed in 2014. The old parameters from before 2014 will stop working soon. This can affect bots, gadgets and user scripts that still use the old parameters.

==Allied logistics in the Southern France campaign GA review==
I Have, after three months and many distractions, completed my review of your nomination of [[Allied logistics in the Southern France campaign]] for GA status. Congratulations, I have deemed it to not only meet the standards necessary for inclusion for GA, but believe that it exceeds them to a degree such that you should consider nominating the article for Featured status.

'''Recent changes'''
* Logged-in users on the mobile web can choose to use the [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web/Advanced mobile contributions|advanced mobile mode]]. They now see categories in a similar way as users on desktop do. This means that some gadgets that have just been for desktop users could work for users of the mobile site too.

* Language links on Wikidata now works for [[:oldwikisource:Main Page|multilingual Wikisource]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T275958]

* There is no new MediaWiki version this week.

'''Future changes'''
* In the future we [[m:Special:MyLanguage/IP Editing: Privacy Enhancement and Abuse Mitigation|can't show the IP]] of unregistered editors to everyone. This is because privacy regulations and norms have changed. There is now a rough draft of how [[m:IP Editing: Privacy Enhancement and Abuse Mitigation#Updates|showing the IP to those who need to see it]] could work.
* German Wikipedia, English Wikivoyage and 29 smaller wikis will be read-only for a few minutes on 22 June. This is planned between 5:00 and 5:30 UTC. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T284530]
* All wikis will be read-only for a few minutes in the week of 28 June. More information will be published in Tech News later. It will also be posted on individual wikis in the coming weeks. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T281515][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T281209]

Thank you today for [[Discovery of nuclear fission]], "about the discovery of nuclear fission in 1938. It is better known than other scientific discoveries because nuclear fission led to the development nuclear power and nuclear weapons. It is also controversial. The award of the Nobel Prize for Chemistry for 1944 to Otto Hahn (but don't mention the war!) raised issues about whether the discovery was about physics or chemistry, and what indeed is meant by a scientific discovery. It has also been touted as an example of the Matilda effect. This carries over to Wikipedia as well; in the English language version, Lise Meitner gets more page views than Otto Hahn, but in the German Wikipedia the reverse is true."! --[[User:Gerda Arendt|Gerda Arendt]] ([[User talk:Gerda Arendt|talk]]) 07:05, 22 June 2021 (UTC)

== Article Review ==

Seeking your input on a particular [[Crime_Writers_On|article]] that I feel does not meet the [[WP:NOTE|notability]] requirements for podcasts. I have watched and attempted to tag this article numerous times for notability, [[WP:COI|conflict of interest]], advertising, etc. Since I know the individuals who run this podcast, another editor feels I have some sort of vendetta against them. I personally feel the value of the article is weak at best for the Wiki. Would you mind taking a glance and letting me know your thoughts? I appreciate your time and guidance.

The third round of the 2021 WikiCup has now come to an end. Each of the sixteen contestants who made it into the fourth round had at least 294 points, and our top six scorers all had over 600 points. They were:

*{{flagicon|BWA}} [[User:The Rambling Man|The Rambling Man]], with 1825 points from 3 featured articles, 44 featured article reviews, 14 good articles, 30 good article reviews and 10 DYKs. In addition, he completed a 34-article good topic on the [[EFL Championship play-offs]].
*{{flagicon|New York (state)}} [[User:Epicgenius|Epicgenius]], a New York specialist, with 1083 points from 2 featured article reviews, 18 good articles, 30 DYKs and plenty of bonus points.
*{{flagicon|Republic of Venice|wartime}} [[User:Bloom6132|Bloom6132]], with 869 points from 11 DYKs, all with bonus points, and 54 "In the news" items, mostly covering people who had recently died.
*[[File:Standard of Oliver Cromwell (1653–1659).svg|22px|England]] [[User:Gog the Mild|Gog the Mild]], with 817 points from 3 featured articles on historic battles in Europe, 5 featured article reviews and 3 good articles.
*[[File:Bennington Flag.svg|22px]] [[User:Hog Farm|Hog Farm]], with 659 points from 2 featured articles and 2 good articles on American Civil War battles, 18 featured article reviews, 2 good articles, 6 good article reviews and 4 DYKs.

In round three, contestants achieved 19 featured articles, 7 featured lists, 106 featured article reviews, 72 good articles, 1 good topic, 62 good article reviews,  165 DYKs and 96 ITN items. We enter the fourth round with scores reset to zero; any content promoted after the end of round 3 but before the start of round 4 can be claimed in round 4. Please also remember that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them (one contestant in round 3 lost out because of this). When doing GARs, please make sure that you check that all the GA criteria are fully met. 

If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article nominations, a featured process, or anything else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed]] (remember to remove your listing when no longer required).

<section begin="tech-newsletter-content"/><div class="plainlinks">
Latest '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News|tech news]]''' from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2021/27|Translations]] are available.

'''Tech News'''
* The next issue of Tech News will be sent out on 19 July.

'''Recent changes'''
* [[:wikidata:Q4063270|AutoWikiBrowser]] is a tool to make repetitive tasks easier. It now uses [[:w:en:JSON|JSON]]. <code>Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser/CheckPage</code> has moved to <code>Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser/CheckPageJSON</code> and <code>Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser/Config</code>. <code>Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser/CheckPage/Version</code> has moved to <code>Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser/CheckPage/VersionJSON</code>. The tool will eventually be configured on the wiki so that you don't have to wait until the new version to add templates or regular expression fixes. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T241196]

'''Problems'''
* [[m:Special:MyLanguage/InternetArchiveBot|InternetArchiveBot]] helps saving online sources on some wikis. It adds them to [[:w:en:Wayback Machine|Wayback Machine]] and links to them there. This is so they don't disappear if the page that was linked to is removed. It currently has a problem with linking to the wrong date when it moves pages from <code>archive.is</code> to <code>web.archive.org</code>. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T283432]

'''Changes later this week'''
* The tool to [[m:WMDE Technical Wishes/Finding and inserting templates|find, add and remove templates]] will be updated. This is to make it easier to find and use the right templates. It will come to the first wikis on 7 July. It will come to more wikis later this year. [https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WMDE_Technical_Wishes/Removing_a_template_from_a_page_using_the_VisualEditor][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T284553]
* There is no new MediaWiki version this week.

'''Future changes'''
* Some Wikimedia wikis use [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Flagged Revisions|Flagged Revisions]] or pending changes. It hides edits from new and unregistered accounts for readers until they have been patrolled. The auto review action in Flagged Revisions will no longer be logged. All old logs of auto-review will be removed. This is because it creates a lot of logs that are not very useful. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T285608]

== Colonel R. Hunter Clarkson | 6th Port ==

Hi Hawkeye7! I was kindly referred to you by [[User:Pbritti|Pbritti]], who evaluated one of your articles for registration as a [[WP:GA]]. I've been looking for information on the Allied logistics in the Southern France campaign, including Colonel R. Hunter Clarkson's 6th Port. Information online seems to be scarse and even the cited sources say that the invasion of French North Africa is "largely forgotten". Would you consider creating or expanding a page with more information on Col. R Hunter Clarkson and the 6th Port?

Thank you very much,

[[User:TanookiKoopa|TanookiKoopa]] ([[User talk:TanookiKoopa|talk]]) 01:42, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
: I regret that I have no information regarding the activities of Brigadier General Robert Hunter Clarkson. I have some information about the activities of the 6th Port in North Africa and Italy.

== FAC Suggestion ==

Hello Hawkeye7, I noticed that you had made edit suggestions to dozens of FAC's in the past - I am impressed with your level of contribution. Currently I am trying to get an article that I have heavily researched and contributed to myself, ''[[El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie]]'', and get it '''[[Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie/archive2|promoted to featured status]]'''. I was hoping that if you had the time, if it were possible to provide some edit suggestions for mine? I had nominated it once last year, but was not able to retrieve any peer reviews. Would be really great to see it promoted this time. — [[User:Flowerkiller1692|Flowerkiller1692]] ([[User talk:Flowerkiller1692|talk]]) 22:36, 16 July 2021 (UTC)

== Red (Taylor Swift album) peer review ==

Hello Hawkeye7, I have opened a peer review for ''[[Red (Taylor Swift album)|Red]]'' prior to taking it to FAC. I am reaching out as you commented on [[Blank Space]]'s FAC. If you have the time and are willing, I would greatly appreciate any comment or advice that you could give at [[Wikipedia:Peer review/Red (Taylor Swift album)/archive1|the review]]. If you are unable, that is totally fine as well.

'''Future changes'''
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] How media is structured in the [[:w:en:Parsing|parser's]] HTML output will soon change. This can affect bots, gadgets, user scripts and extensions. You can [https://lists.wikimedia.org/hyperkitty/list/wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org/thread/L2UQJRHTFK5YG3IOZEC7JSLH2ZQNZRVU/ read more]. You can test it on [[:testwiki:Main Page|Testwiki]] or [[:test2wiki:Main Page|Testwiki 2]].
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] The parameters for how you obtain [[mw:API:Tokens|tokens]] in the MediaWiki API were changed in 2014.

'''Recent changes'''
* A [[mw:MediaWiki 1.37/wmf.14|new version]] of MediaWiki came to the Wikimedia wikis the week before last week. This was not in Tech News because there was no newsletter that week. 

'''Changes later this week'''

'''Future changes'''
* If you use the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Skin:MonoBook|Monobook skin]] you can choose to switch off [[:w:en:Responsive web design|responsive design]] on mobile. This will now work for more skins. If <code>{{int:monobook-responsive-label}}</code> is unticked you need to also untick the new [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-rendering|preference]] <code>{{int:prefs-skin-responsive}}</code>.

'''Shuttle-Centaur''' was a version of the  [[Centaur (rocket stage)|Centaur]] [[upper stage]] rocket designed to be carried aloft inside the [[Space Shuttle]].  Two variants were developed: '''Centaur G-Prime''' and '''Centaur G'''. The powerful Centaur upper stage allowed for heavier deep space probes, and for them to reach Jupiter sooner. However, neither variant ever flew on a Shuttle.

'''Recent changes'''
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] If your wiki uses markup like <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki><div class="mw-content-ltr"></nowiki></code></bdi> or <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki><div class="mw-content-rtl"></nowiki></code></bdi> without the required <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code>dir</code></bdi> attribute, then these will no longer work in 2 weeks. There is a short-term fix that can be added to your local wiki's Common.css page, which is explained at [[phab:T287701|T287701]]. From now on, all usages should include the full attributes, for example: <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki><div class="mw-content-ltr" dir="ltr" lang="en"></nowiki></code></bdi> or <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki><div class="mw-content-rtl" dir="rtl" lang="he"></nowiki></code></bdi>. This also applies to some other HTML tags, such as <code>span</code> or <code>code</code>. You can find existing examples on your wiki that need to be updated, using the instructions at [[phab:T287701|T287701]].
* Reminder: Wikimedia has [[m:Special:MyLanguage/IRC/Migrating to Libera Chat|migrated to the Libera Chat IRC network]], from the old Freenode network. Local documentation should be updated.

'''Problems'''
* Last week, all wikis had slow access or no access for 30 minutes. There was a problem with generating dynamic lists of articles on the Russian Wikinews, due to the bulk import of 200,000+ new articles over 3 days, which led to database problems. The problematic feature has been disabled on that wiki and developers are discussing if it can be fixed properly. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T287380][https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Incident_documentation/2021-07-26_ruwikinews_DynamicPageList]

'''Changes later this week'''
* When adding links to a page using [[mw:VisualEditor|VisualEditor]] or the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/2017 wikitext editor|2017 wikitext editor]], [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Disambiguator|disambiguation pages]] will now only appear at the bottom of search results. This is because users do not often want to link to disambiguation pages. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T285510]
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|Recurrent item]] The [[mw:MediaWiki 1.37/wmf.17|new version]] of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from {{#time:j xg|2021-08-03|en}}. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from {{#time:j xg|2021-08-04|en}}. It will be on all wikis from {{#time:j xg|2021-08-05|en}} ([[mw:MediaWiki 1.37/Roadmap|calendar]]).

'''Future changes'''
* The [[mw:Wikimedia Apps/Team/Android|team of the Wikipedia app for Android]] is working on communication in the app. The developers are working on how to talk to other editors and get notifications. You can [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Apps/Team/Android/Communication|read more]]. They are looking for users who want to [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Apps/Team/Android/Communication/UsertestingJuly2021|test the plans]]. Any editor who has an Android phone and is willing to download the app can do this.
* The [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures|Beta Feature]] for {{int:discussiontools-preference-label}} will be updated in the coming weeks.  You will be able to [[mw:Talk pages project/Notifications|subscribe to individual sections]] on a talk page at more wikis.  You can test this now by adding <code>?dtenable=1</code> to the end of the talk page's URL ([https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Meta_talk:Sandbox?dtenable=1 example]).

== Surely You're Joking? ==

I can't work out what the purpose of your "semi-autoibiographical" change to the Feynman introduction section is. Even further down the page the book is described as autobiographical. There is nothing about this book which is (known to be) fictional. I have read both the books, BTW.

Check out the article about the book itself:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surely_You%27re_Joking,_Mr._Feynman!

Please quit inserting your own opinions as facts.

'''Problems'''
* You can read but not edit 17 wikis for a few minutes on 10 August. This is planned at [https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1628571650 05:00 UTC]. This is because of work on the database. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T287449]

'''Changes later this week'''
* The [[wmania:Special:MyLanguage/2021:Hackathon|Wikimania Hackathon]] will take place remotely on 13 August, starting at 5:00 UTC, for 24 hours. You can participate in many ways. You can still propose projects and sessions.
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|Recurrent item]] The [[mw:MediaWiki 1.37/wmf.18|new version]] of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from {{#time:j xg|2021-08-10|en}}.

'''Recent changes'''
* You can add language links in the sidebar in the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements|new Vector skin]] again. You do this by connecting the page to a Wikidata item. The new Vector skin has moved the language links but the new language selector cannot add language links yet. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T287206]

'''Problems'''
* There was a problem on wikis which use the Translate extension. Translations were not updated or were replaced with the English text. The problems have been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T288700][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T288683][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T288719]

'''Changes later this week'''
* A [[mw:Help:Tags|revision tag]] will soon be added to edits that add links to [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Disambiguator|disambiguation pages]]. This is because these links are usually added by accident. The tag will allow editors to easily find the broken links and fix them.

We are also looking for feedback [[m:Talk:Toolhub/The Quality Signal Sessions#Discussion topic for "Quality Signal Sessions: The Tool Maintainers edition"|from tool maintainers]] on some specific questions.
* In the past, edits to any page in your user talk space ignored your [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Notifications#mute|mute list]], e.g. sub-pages. Starting this week, this is only true for edits to your talk page. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T288112]

== Your advice please ==

I am starting to create/expand pages on U.S. logistics in the Vietnam War. I have already created [[Naval Support Activity Danang]] which supplied the Marines in the northern provinces of South Vietnam and am starting to expand [[1st Sustainment Command (Theater)]] which as 1st Logistical Command supplied U.S. units throughout the rest of South Vietnam. I was planning to cover most of the logistics on the 1st Sustainment Command page, but do you think its preferable for me to create an overriding page of "U.S. military logistics in the Vietnam War" that covers the entire logistics effort with Naval Support Activity Danang and 1st Sustainment Command effectively as subpages? Your thoughts on this would be appreciated. regards [[User:Mztourist|Mztourist]] ([[User talk:Mztourist|talk]]) 08:19, 15 July 2021 (UTC)

:These are fine articles. My intention was to eventually create "U.S. military logistics in the Vietnam War" as an overview article with articles like those as subpages. However, I hadn't started on it at all; I was waiting for official history volume on logistics to appear, and it was supposed to be published this year, but has not yet appeared. (I have the relevant Vietnam studies volumes.) So proceed by all means.

::No if you're planning on getting to it, I'll leave it to you because you have a much better understanding of logistics than I do. As you may have seen, I used the Vietnam Studies Logistics volume to expand 1st Sustainment Command page, so I will just add a few more details from that book to expand that page, but won't try to get into the full details of U.S. logistics. Out of interest how do you know that an official history volume on logistics is coming out soon? regards [[User:Mztourist|Mztourist]] ([[User talk:Mztourist|talk]]) 06:18, 16 July 2021 (UTC)

Congrats to that! ... and thank you today for [[Shuttle-Centaur]], "about a proposed upper stage for the Space Shuttle using the Centaur upper stage rocket. The whole Space Shuttle program was mired in controversy from the start, and this project spent a billion dollars with meagre results. The article addresses several questions and provides object lessons. It has been said that Shuttle-Centaur was a casualty of NASA's increased safety consciousness after the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster, but as the article shows, this was not entirely true."! --[[User:Gerda Arendt|Gerda Arendt]] ([[User talk:Gerda Arendt|talk]]) 08:49, 20 August 2021 (UTC)

== WikiCup 2021 September newsletter ==

The fourth round of the competition has finished with over 500 points being required to qualify for the final round. It was a hotly competitive round with two contestants, {{flagicon|BWA}} [[User:The Rambling Man|The Rambling Man]] and {{flagicon|New York (state)}} [[User:Epicgenius|Epicgenius]], each scoring over 3000 points, and six contestants scoring over 1000. All but one of the finalists achieved one or more FAs during the round, the exception being {{flagicon|Republic of Venice|wartime}} [[User: Bloom6132|Bloom6132]] who demonstrated that 61 "in the news" items produces an impressive number of points. Other contestants who made it to the final are [[File:Standard of Oliver Cromwell (1653–1659).svg|22px]] [[User:Gog the Mild|Gog the Mild]], {{flagicon|ENG}} [[User:Lee Vilenski|Lee Vilenski]], [[File:ICS Zulu.svg|20px|Zulu (International Code of Signals)]] [[User:BennyOnTheLoose|BennyOnTheLoose]], {{flagicon|Rwanda}} [[User:Amakuru|Amakuru]] and [[File:Bennington Flag.svg|22px]] [[User:Hog Farm|Hog Farm]]. However, all their points are now swept away and everyone starts afresh in the final round.

Round 4 saw the achievement of 18 featured articles and 157 good articles. [[File:Wandbild Portrait George Floyd von Eme Street Art im Mauerpark (Berlin).jpg|22px|George Floyd mural]] [[User:Bilorv|Bilorv]] scored for a 25-article good topic on [[Black Mirror]] but narrowly missed out on qualifying for the final round. There was enthusiasm for FARs, with 89 being performed, and there were 63 GARs and around 100 DYKs during the round. As we start round 5, we say goodbye to the eight competitors who didn't quite make it to the final round; thank you for the useful contributions you have made to the Cup and Wikipedia, and we hope you will join us again next year. For other contestants, remember that any content promoted after the end of round 4 but before the start of round 5 can be claimed in round 5. Remember too that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them.

If you are concerned that your nomination, whether it be for a good article, a featured process, or anything else, will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed]] (remember to remove your listing when no longer required). If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to help keep down the review backlogs!

== How to add West Point military atlas maps to a Wikipedia article ==

Hi Hawkeye7:

I would like to add a map from [https://www.westpoint.edu/academics/academic-departments/history/napoleonic-wars West Point Military Academy's Napoleonic Wars] to my [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Vyazma Battle of Vyazma] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Krasnoi Battle of Krasnoi] articles. The specific map I want to use is [https://www.westpoint.edu/sites/default/files/inline-images/academics/academic_departments/history/Napoleonic%20wars/Nap51.pdf this one].

It's my presumption that this map is "public domain." I assume so because three maps from that same West Point website are currently embedded in the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Borodino Battle of Borodino] article. Am I correct in assuming this map is public domain?

Also, how can I embed the entire map - as a single image - in my article? Does doing this mean I would have to download a copy of the map to my hard drive, then reupload the map to Wikipedia Commons, and proceed from there?

Thanks in advance for any feedback you can offer.

== Battle of Vyazma (1812): question about adding maps ==

Hello Hawkeye7,

I am the original author of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Vyazma Battle of Vyazma]. Presently I am rewriting the article, upgrading the narrative, improving its readability, and adding all necessary citations and footnotes. I would like to add two maps the article, but I anticipate problems with Wiki admins about the maps. I am hoping you can give me some guidance.

The two maps are taken directly from Edward Foord's 1908 classic [https://www.google.com/books/edition/Napoleon_s_Russian_Campaign_of_1812/wXVAAAAAYAAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&printsec=frontcover Napoleon's Russian Campaign of 1812]. Note that this book is now available online for free to anyone who wishes to read it. One map is one page 313, and the other is on page 317. I you wish, I can post GIF copies here for you to see.

My specific questions to you are:

1) Given that the book is now available to the public for free, this means I don't need to obtain the publisher's explicit permission to put the maps in my article, correct? Please advise if I am wrong.

2) Assuming I'm clear on the first question, how exactly do I credit the map on Wikipedia so that it doesn't get deleted by some zealous Wiki admin?

3) Assuming I am able to post the maps, may I simply make my own GIF copies, and upload the copies to my article? Or would that be a violation of some Wiki policy? Linking directly to the pages in Foord's book is not an attractive option for reasons of aesthetics, in my opinion. Uploading GIF copies is desirable.

4) The maps are old sketches of the battlefield and troop dispositions. If I make GIF copies, the resolution of the maps may be slightly less than perfect. How can I ensure that a zealous Wiki admin doesn't delete the maps because of less than perfect resolution?

Thanks in advance for any feedback you can offer. If you are unable to answer these questions, kindly give me the name of a Wikipedia admin who can work with me in resolving these issues. If it's easier for you, I can give you my email and we can continue the conversation that way.

Best,
[[User:Kenmore|Kenmore]] ([[User talk:Kenmore|talk]]) 20:36, 29 August 2021 (UTC)

Copyright is complicated, but for this specific case. The book was published in 1908, so is out of UK copyright. Upload to Commons and tag it with {{tl|PD-old}}. Perfect resolution is not required.

::I uploaded the map and added the tags you advised. I am worried about two things though. 1) I downloaded the public domain map from West Point's webpage, and turned it into a PNG file. I trimmed the downloaded page so that only the map appears. I hope this is okay. 2)When asked by Wiki Commons for a date (when the image was created), I had no idea what to put. Therefore I simply put May 15, 2009. I chose that date only because the Wiki editor who did the Borodino article used that date for maps that he downloaded from the exact same West Point webpage I'm using. Does this sound okay to you?[[User:Kenmore|Kenmore]] ([[User talk:Kenmore|talk]]) 13:58, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
:::That was when it was scanned. I would have put "1976", the date when the West Point atlas was published. [[User:Hawkeye7|<span style="color:#800082">Hawkeye7</span>]] [[User_talk:Hawkeye7|<span style="font-size:80%">(discuss)</span>]] 20:35, 3 September 2021 (UTC)

== Review of [[John Savage (soldier)]] ==

Hi Hawekeye7, I thought I would just ask for some clarification as towards the C class review of this article. It was rated C class when it consisted of a couple of short largely unreferenced paragraphs, and is now a much more in depth and extensively referenced article with more images. I would appreciate it if you could tell me what is required for this article to go from C to B and so on. Best regards, [[User:Grosseteste|Grosseteste]] ([[User talk:Grosseteste|talk]]) 00:22, 3 September 2021 (UTC)

:So long as it still contains unreferenced paragraphs, it will remain C class. [[User:Hawkeye7|<span style="color:#800082">Hawkeye7</span>]] [[User_talk:Hawkeye7|<span style="font-size:80%">(discuss)</span>]] 11:06, 3 September 2021 (UTC)

:That is a fair analysis. The sections which are unreferenced are the parts that I did not write, but I will endeavour to find sources to back them up. Should I submit another request once I have done that, or inform you here? Best regards, [[User:Grosseteste|Grosseteste]] ([[User talk:Grosseteste|talk]]) 11:27, 3 September 2021 (UTC)

== Help with a tennis FAC? ==

Hi Hawkeye7, I was planning to re-nominate Suzanne Lenglen at FAC some time this month. I was wondering if you would be interested in reviewing, and if you think you would have time to review it in the next few weeks or so.

[[File:Wikipedia New page reviewer.svg|right|70px]][[File:NPP backlog September 2021.jpg|thumb|400px|New Page Review queue September 2021]]
Hello {{BASEPAGENAME}},

Please join [[Wikipedia_talk:New_pages_patrol/Reviewers#AFC_reviewer_Olaf_Kosinsky|''this discussion'']] - there is increase in the abuse of Wikipedia and its processes by POV pushers, Paid Editors, and by holders of various user rights including [[Wikipedia:Autopatrolled|Autopatrolled]]. Even our review systems themselves at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation|AfC]] and [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Reviewers|NPR]] have been infiltrated. The good news is that detection is improving, but the downside is that it creates the need for a huge clean up - which of course adds to backlogs.

[[WP:COPYVIO|Copyright violations]] are also a serious issue. Most non-regular contributors do not understand why, and most  of our  Reviewers are not experts on copyright law - and can't be expected to be, but  there is excellent, easy-to-follow advice on COPYVIO detection [[Wikipedia:New_pages_patrol#Copyright_violations_(WP:COPYVIO)|'''here''']].

At the time of the last newsletter (#25, December 2020) the backlog was only just over 2,000 articles. New Page Review is an official system. It's the only firewall against the inclusion of new, improper pages.  

There are currently '''706''' New Page Reviewers plus a further 1,080 admins, but as much as nearly 90% of the patrolling is still being done by around only the 20 or so most regular patrollers. 

If you are no longer very active on Wikipedia or you no longer wish to be part of the New Page Reviewer user group, please consider asking any admin to remove you from the list. This will enable NPP to have a better overview of its performance and what improvements need to be made to the process or its software.
[[File:New page reviewer of the year cup.svg|left|50px]]
Various awards are due to be allocated by the end of the year and barnstars are overdue.  If you would like to manage this, please let us know. Indeed, if you are interested in coordinating NPR, it does not involve much time and the tasks are described [[Wikipedia:New_pages_patrol/Coordination#New_Page_Review_Coordinators|here]].

== Belgium-related article ==
* Good evening, apologies for the delay, I've been out of town for a week. Sure I'm interested in the article you have in mind. I might find a local source if there are no translated versions. Cheers. [[User:CPA-5|CPA-5]] ([[User talk:CPA-5|talk]]) 20:18, 18 September 2021 (UTC)

*: Probably not anything you are thinking of. During World War II and immediately afterwards, the Manhattan Project attempted to forestall nuclear proliferation by cornering the market on uranium ore. The main source was in the Belgian Congo, so this involved negotiations with the Belgian government without disclosing what the uranium was for. I have a good book on the subject, ''Gathering Rare Ores'' by Jonathon E. Helmreich, and ample material for an article, but Helmreich is my only source for the Belgian side.

== [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2021/38|Tech News: 2021-38]] ==

<section begin="tech-newsletter-content"/><div class="plainlinks">
Latest '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News|tech news]]''' from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2021/38|Translations]] are available.

'''Recent changes'''
* Growth features are now deployed to almost all Wikipedias. [[phab:T290582|For the majority of small Wikipedias]], the features are only available for experienced users, to [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Growth/FAQ#enable|test the features]] and [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Growth/FAQ#config|configure them]]. Features will be available for newcomers starting on 20 September 2021.
* MediaWiki had a feature that would highlight local links to short articles in a different style. Each user could pick the size at which "stubs" would be highlighted. This feature was very bad for performance, and following a consultation, has been removed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T284917]
* A technical change was made to the MonoBook skin to allow for easier maintenance and upkeep. This has resulted in some minor changes to HTML that make MonoBook's HTML consistent with other skins. Efforts have been made to minimize the impact on editors, but please ping [[m:User:Jon (WMF)|Jon (WMF)]] on wiki or in [[phab:T290888|phabricator]] if any problems are reported.

'''Problems'''
* There was a problem with search last week. Many search requests did not work for 2 hours because of an accidental restart of the search servers. [https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Incident_documentation/2021-09-13_cirrussearch_restart]

'''Changes later this week'''
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|Recurrent item]] The [[mw:MediaWiki 1.38/wmf.1|new version]] of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from {{#time:j xg|2021-09-21|en}}. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from {{#time:j xg|2021-09-22|en}}. It will be on all wikis from {{#time:j xg|2021-09-23|en}} ([[mw:MediaWiki 1.38/Roadmap|calendar]]).
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] The [[s:Special:ApiHelp/query+proofreadinfo|meta=proofreadpage API]] has changed. The <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>piprop</nowiki></code></bdi> parameter has been renamed to <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>prpiprop</nowiki></code></bdi>. API users should update their code to avoid unrecognized parameter warnings. Pywikibot users should upgrade to 6.6.0. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T290585]

'''Future changes'''
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:DiscussionTools#Replying|Reply tool]] will be deployed to the remaining wikis in the coming weeks.  It is currently part of "{{int:discussiontools-preference-label}}" in [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures|Beta features]] at most wikis. You will be able to turn it off in [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-editing-discussion|Editing Preferences]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T262331]
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] The [[mw:MediaWiki_1.37/Deprecation_of_legacy_API_token_parameters|previously announced]] change to how you obtain tokens from the API has been delayed to September 21 because of an incompatibility with Pywikibot. Bot operators using Pywikibot can follow [[phab:T291202|T291202]] for progress on a fix, and should plan to upgrade to 6.6.1 when it is released.

== Confused ==

Hello, it is late you have reverted a bunch of copyedits, thus restoring errors. Your edit summary did not provide a reason, and it's not the kind of edit that is self-explanatory, so I am confused. I am leaving this message in your inbox in the hope you will have time to contact me tomorrow. [[Special:Contributions/2601:5CC:8300:A7F0:AD38:10F1:B84A:6037|2601:5CC:8300:A7F0:AD38:10F1:B84A:6037]] ([[User talk:2601:5CC:8300:A7F0:AD38:10F1:B84A:6037|talk]]) 01:48, 26 September 2021 (UTC)

:You're using American English. The article is in Australian English. [[User:Hawkeye7|<span style="color:#800082">Hawkeye7</span>]] [[User_talk:Hawkeye7|<span style="font-size:80%">(discuss)</span>]] 02:22, 26 September 2021 (UTC)
::I'll admit I'm still puzzled. I think it most likely that you are confusing my changes with those of someone else. I guess it’s both of our fault; I neglected to link the change in question earlier, and you neglected to provide an informative edit summary which makes it easy to confuse one edit with another. [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=British_nuclear_tests_at_Maralinga&diff=next&oldid=1046499964 This is the change in question].
::I’ll start with the change from “clean up” to “cleanup”. As I explained in my edit summary “clean up” (with the space) is a verb and cleanup/clean-up is a noun. ''Collins'' indicates that “clean-up” is slightly preferred in British English and “cleanup” is strongly preferred in American English. Either should be acceptable in an international publication IMO, but “clean up” is always wrong when used as a noun or adjective. Written Australian usage does not show a strong preference for either clean-up or cleanup [https://grammarist.com/usage/cleanup-clean-up/ see grammarist], Though the ''Macquarie Dictionary'' and ''Australian National Dictionary'' both prefer the hyphenated version. However, internationally cleanup is preferred over clean-up by some margin [https://writingexplained.org/cleanup-or-clean-up-difference see some graphs here], hence my earlier decision. It's a judgement call I would certainly not quibble over which of those two should be used.
::My next change altered “A 91-metre (300 ft) tower was built at Maralinga for a boosted weapon test, in case sufficient lithium deuteride could not be produced in time for the Operation Mosaic G2 test” by removing the comma. There’s no good reason for it to be there and no Australian style guide recommends such a use to my knowledge.
::A further change altered “that is capable of slicing open tiny samples” to “that can slice open tiny samples”. This has nothing to do with any variety of English and a preference for concision has been universally recommended by style guides going back at least to ''Fowler’s''.
::”about the history and culture of the region, the controversy and its original owners” I added an Oxford comma here to ease reading, it’s not absolutely necessary to avoid ambiguity, and Oxford commas can be controversial, but style guides tend to prefer the use of one in these cases.
::If you would, please explain why you disagree with these changes. I have access to copies of the reference material mentioned above. Thank you.

<section begin="technews-2021-W39"/><div class="plainlinks">
Latest '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News|tech news]]''' from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2021/39|Translations]] are available.

'''Recent changes'''
* [[w:en:IOS|iOS 15]] has a new function called [https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT212614 Private Relay] (Apple website). This can hide the user's IP when they use [[w:en:Safari (software)|Safari]] browser. This is like using a [[w:en:Virtual private network|VPN]] in that we see another IP address instead. It is opt-in and only for those who pay extra for [[w:en:ICloud|iCloud]]. It will come to Safari users on [[:w:en:OSX|OSX]] later. There is a [[phab:T289795|technical discussion]] about what this means for the Wikimedia wikis.

'''Problems'''
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] Some gadgets and user-scripts add items to the [[m:Customization:Explaining_skins#Portlets|portlets]] (article tools) part of the skin. A recent change to the HTML may have made those links a different font-size. This can be fixed by adding the CSS class <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code>.vector-menu-dropdown-noicon</code></bdi>. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T291438]

'''Changes later this week'''
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|Recurrent item]] The [[mw:MediaWiki 1.38/wmf.2|new version]] of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from {{#time:j xg|2021-09-28|en}}. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from {{#time:j xg|2021-09-29|en}}. It will be on all wikis from {{#time:j xg|2021-09-30|en}} ([[mw:MediaWiki 1.38/Roadmap|calendar]]).
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Onboarding_new_Wikipedians#New_experience|GettingStarted extension]] was built in 2013, and provides an onboarding process for new account holders in a few versions of Wikipedia. However, the recently developed [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Growth/Feature_summary|Growth features]] provide a better onboarding experience. Since the vast majority of Wikipedias now have access to the Growth features, GettingStarted will be deactivated starting on 4 October. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T235752]
* A small number of users will not be able to connect to the Wikimedia wikis after 30 September. This is because an old [[:w:en:root certificate|root certificate]] will no longer work. They will also have problems with many other websites. Users who have updated their software in the last five years are unlikely to have problems. Users in Europe, Africa and Asia are less likely to have immediate problems even if their software is too old. You can [[m:Special:MyLanguage/HTTPS/2021 Let's Encrypt root expiry|read more]].
* You can [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Notifications|receive notifications]] when someone leaves a comment on user talk page or mentions you in a talk page comment. Clicking the notification link will now bring you to the comment and highlight it. Previously, doing so brought you to the top of the section that contained the comment. You can find [[phab:T282029|more information in T282029.]]

'''Future changes'''
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:DiscussionTools#Replying|Reply tool]] will be deployed to the remaining wikis in the coming weeks. It is currently part of "{{int:discussiontools-preference-label}}" in [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures|Beta features]] at most wikis. You will be able to turn it off in [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-editing-discussion|Editing Preferences]]. [[phab:T288485|See the list of wikis.]] [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T262331]

It would be helpful to add a sentence or two in the CBI section of ASF to indicate/summarize Yount's results there - I had to click through to find out. It was left hanging.

Hi Hawkeye7, just wondering why there is no 'Detractors' section of this article? I would have thought the questionable (unbelievable!) decisions he and Blamey made around the actions in PNG during 1942 alone would be worth comment? By all the accounts I have read he was a right bastard and very good at controlling the public narrative to make himself look good,  despite the Australian losses resulting from his poor decisions...

'''Recent changes'''
* Mobile IP editors are now able to receive warning notices indicating they have a talk page message on the mobile website (similar to the orange banners available on desktop). These notices will be displayed on every page outside of the main namespace and every time the user attempts to edit. The notice on desktop now has a slightly different colour. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T284642][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T278105]

'''Changes later this week'''
* [[phab:T294321|Wikidata will be read-only]] for a few minutes on 11 November. This will happen around [https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1636610400 06:00 UTC]. This is for database maintenance. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T294321]
* There is no new MediaWiki version this week.

'''Future changes'''
* In the future, unregistered editors will be given an identity that is not their [[:w:en:IP address|IP address]]. This is for legal reasons. A new user right will let editors who need to know the IPs of unregistered accounts to fight vandalism, spam, and harassment, see the IP. You can read the [[m:IP Editing: Privacy Enhancement and Abuse Mitigation#IP Masking Implementation Approaches (FAQ)|suggestions for how that identity could work]] and [[m:Talk:IP Editing: Privacy Enhancement and Abuse Mitigation|discuss on the talk page]].

== Peer review on [[Yuzuru Hanyu Olympic seasons]] ==

Hi, I and Henni147 have made major changes to the article after it was split from the [[Yuzuru Hanyu]] main article during its GA process so it can be a standalone article. Since you helped during the GA process, I wonder if you can make some suggestions for the [[Wikipedia:Peer_review/Yuzuru_Hanyu_Olympic_seasons/archive1|peer review process]] if you have time, especially on the article's format, flow etc. I think this would be a good start before bringing it to GA nomination once the season ends. I would be so thankful. Regards. - [[User:Yolo4A4Lo|Yolo4A4Lo]] ([[User talk:Yolo4A4Lo|talk]]) 09:08, 9 November 2021 (UTC)

== Douglas MacArthur ==
I have no idea how my edit to [[Douglas MacArthur]] screwed up that reference. I really was just trying to get rid of the term "Army brat" which really doesn't fit DM, so my apologies. [[User:Dr. Grampinator|Dr. Grampinator]] ([[User talk:Dr. Grampinator|talk]]) 21:38, 18 November 2021 (UTC)

::: On the first question, I just had a viscerally bad reaction to referring to DM as an Army brat. I understand the term to be acceptable these days, but would he really have gotten that designation in the late 19th century? 
:::: I don't know about the late 19th century, although the term has been in use since the 18th century. MacArthur described himself as an Army brat in 1947;[https://books.google.com.au/books?id=qapFXFvOj3UC&pg=RA2-PA70] and I think this where the sources, and subsequently the article, got it from.

I notice you have an interest in the New Guinea campaign of WWII. FYI, I went to Douglas MacArthur High School in Saginaw, MI, and my father served on [[USS LST-474|LST 474]] from the initial deployment through the Leyte Gulf operation. He returned to the states in November-December 1944 on the [[USS Anderson]] and he said he travelled with some of the survivors of Bataan. The timeline for the Anderson seems consistent but I have not been able to verify that any of the returning prisoners were there. Perhaps you can shed some light on it. [[User:Dr. Grampinator|Dr. Grampinator]] ([[User talk:Dr. Grampinator|talk]]) 00:48, 19 November 2021 (UTC)
: I wrote my doctoral thesis on the New Guinea campaign, but the Philippines was out of scope. November-December 1944 is too early; I think November-December 1945 is meant. Some years ago I spoke to an Australian who was involved in the repatriation of prisoners of the Japanese from Japan and China, and he said that owing to their emaciated condition, it was decided not to send them directly back to the United States, but to Hawaii, where they were kept until they were more presentable.

== british logistics in the falklands war ==

hello, Hawkeye7!  i had a quick question regarding [[British logistics in the Falklands War|this article]].  i was surprised that the reason given for not painting a red cross on the field hospital was because "Argentina was not a signatory to the Geneva Conventions", since, according to the [[International Committee of the Red Cross|international committee of the red cross]] (icrc), argentina became a party to the geneva conventions [https://archive.today/20211127170109/https://ihl-databases.icrc.org/applic/ihl/ihl.nsf/vwTreatiesByCountrySelected.xsp?xp_countrySelected=AR in 1956], while the united kingdom became one [https://archive.today/20211121000825/https://ihl-databases.icrc.org/applic/ihl/ihl.nsf/vwTreatiesByCountrySelected.xsp?xp_countrySelected=GB in 1957].  (both appear to have signed on the same day in 1949.){{pb}}the united kingdom appears to have made [https://archive.today/20211127172338/https://ihl-databases.icrc.org/applic/ihl/ihl.nsf/Notification.xsp?action=openDocument&documentId=67439308D7A3B68BC1256402003F9917 some reservations] upon ratification, but they do not appear to be relevant; argentina does not appear to have made any similar reservations.  icrc also [https://archive.today/20211123031111/https://www.icrc.org/en/document/falklands-malvinas-icrcs-role-30-years reported] that "[f]rom the outset of the conflict, the two countries demonstrated their commitment to comply with international humanitarian law", so i am assuming that both sides had intended to observe the geneva conventions during the conflict.{{pb}}can this discrepancy be resolved?  i admittedly do not have access to the [[British logistics in the Falklands War#CITEREFJolly1983|cited jolly source]].  [[User:Dying|dying]] ([[User talk:Dying|talk]]) 18:47, 27 November 2021 (UTC)
:The source talks about the decision not to mark the hospital with a red cross and says: "We note that Argentina is not in fact a signatory of the Geneva Convention." (p. 53) I've removed the phrase. [[User:Hawkeye7|<span style="color:#800082">Hawkeye7</span>]] [[User_talk:Hawkeye7|<span style="font-size:80%">(discuss)</span>]] 19:10, 27 November 2021 (UTC)
:: oh, that's interesting.  admittedly, it didn't really help resolve the discrepancy, so i did a little more digging and found [https://archive.today/LRp2q/8cf6583db28668ceeda1f558dc6b3ba8f162c2bf.png this page] from [https://archive.today/20211127201535/https://books.google.com/books?id=IovpCgAAQBAJ&pg=PP90 this later jolly source] (published in 2012) in which jolly states that argentina was a signatory, but notes that there was "a sneaky suspicion" that a red cross might be deliberately targeted, adding that there were "some awful stories in circulation" about the argentine military government.  as jolly appears to be contradicting himself, i don't know which account of his to believe.  in any case, thanks for addressing the issue!

Latest '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News|tech news]]''' from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2021/49|Translations]] are available.

'''Problems'''
* MediaWiki 1.38-wmf.11 was scheduled to be deployed on some wikis last week. The deployment was delayed because of unexpected problems.

'''Changes later this week'''
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|Recurrent item]] The [[mw:MediaWiki 1.38/wmf.12|new version]] of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from {{#time:j xg|2021-12-07|en}}. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from {{#time:j xg|2021-12-08|en}}. It will be on all wikis from {{#time:j xg|2021-12-09|en}} ([[mw:MediaWiki 1.38/Roadmap|calendar]]).
* At all Wikipedias, a Mentor Dashboard is now available at <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>Special:MentorDashboard</nowiki></code></bdi>. It allows registered mentors, who take care of newcomers' first steps, to monitor their assigned newcomers' activity. It is part of the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Growth/Feature summary|Growth features]]. You can learn more about [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Growth/Communities/How_to_configure_the_mentors%27_list|activating the mentor list]] on your wiki and about [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Growth/Mentor dashboard|the mentor dashboard project]].
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] The predecessor to the current [[mw:API|MediaWiki Action API]] (which was created in 2008), <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>action=ajax</nowiki></code></bdi>, will be removed this week. Any scripts or bots using it will need to switch to the corresponding API module. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T42786]
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] An old ResourceLoader module, <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>jquery.jStorage</nowiki></code></bdi>, which was deprecated in 2016, will be removed this week. Any scripts or bots using it will need to switch to <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>mediawiki.storage</nowiki></code></bdi> instead. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T143034]

'''Recent changes'''
* There are now default [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Namespace#Other_namespace_aliases|short aliases]] for the "Project:" namespace on most wikis. E.g. On Wikibooks wikis, <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>[[WB:]]</nowiki></code></bdi> will go to the local language default for the <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>[[Project:]]</nowiki></code></bdi> namespace.

== Survey about History on Wikipedia (If you reside in the United States) ==

I am Petros Apostolopoulos, a Ph.D. candidate in Public History at North Carolina State University. My Ph.D. project examines how historical knowledge is produced on Wikipedia. You must be 18 years of age or older, reside in the United States to participate in this study. If you are interested in participating in my research study by offering your own experience of writing about history on Wikipedia, you can click on this link https://ncsu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_9z4wmR1cIp0qBH8. There are minimal risks involved in this research.

If you have any questions, please let me know. Petros Apostolopoulos, paposto@ncsu.edu [[User:Apolo1991|Apolo1991]] ([[User talk:Apolo1991|talk]]) 14:29, 15 December 2021 (UTC)

'''Tech News'''
* Because of the [[w:en:Christmas and holiday season|holidays]] the next issue of Tech News will be sent out on 10 January 2022.

'''Recent changes'''
* Queries made by the DynamicPageList extension (<bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki><DynamicPageList></nowiki></code></bdi>) are now only allowed to run for 10 seconds and error if they take longer. This is in response to multiple outages where long-running queries caused an outage on all wikis. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T287380#7575719]

'''Changes later this week'''
* There is no new MediaWiki version this week or next week.

'''Future changes'''
* The developers of the Wikipedia iOS app are looking for testers who edit in multiple languages. You can [[mw:Wikimedia Apps/Team/iOS/202112 testing|read more and let them know if you are interested]].
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] The Wikimedia [[wikitech:Portal:Cloud VPS|Cloud VPS]] hosts technical projects for the Wikimedia movement. Developers need to [[wikitech:News/Cloud VPS 2021 Purge|claim projects]] they use. This is because old and unused projects are removed once a year. Unclaimed projects can be shut down from February.
