Administrators' newsletter – February 2020

News and updates for administrators from the past month (January 2020).

Guideline and policy news

  • Following a request for comment, partial blocks are now enabled on the English Wikipedia. This functionality allows administrators to block users from editing specific pages or namespaces rather than the entire site. A draft policy is being workshopped at Wikipedia:Partial blocks.
  • The request for comment seeking the community's sentiment for a binding desysop procedure closed with wide-spread support for an alternative desysoping procedure based on community input. No proposed process received consensus.

Technical news

  • Twinkle now supports partial blocking. There is a small checkbox that toggles the "partial" status for both blocks and templating. There is currently one template: {{uw-pblock}}.
  • When trying to move a page, if the target title already exists then a warning message is shown. The warning message will now include a link to the target title. [1]

Arbitration

  • Following a recent arbitration case, the Arbitration Committee reminded administrators that checkuser and oversight blocks must not be reversed or modified without prior consultation with the checkuser or oversighter who placed the block, the respective functionary team, or the Arbitration Committee.

Hi, welcome to Wikipedia. Your article was marked as a draft by another editor and they gave you the instructions on how to improve it. But you ignored their instructions and recreated it in mainspace. I suggest you to take a look at WP:NSCHOOL, which states all elementary, middle, and high schools must satisfy either the notability guidelines for organizations or our general notability guidelines. I have marked the mainspace article for deletion, please comment on the deletion discussion and provide proof why you think it meets our notability guidelines. Thanks.

Recent edit to Tom Hudson (rugby union)

Hello. I noticed that you made an edit to a biography of a living person (Tom Hudson (rugby union)), but that you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. Wikipedia has a strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you! Materialscientist (talk) 11:17, 18 February 2020 (UTC)
