[[File:Green check.svg|20px|alt=]] '''Guideline and policy news'''
:* A [[Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Partial blocks|request for comment]] asks whether [[Wikipedia:Community health initiative on English Wikipedia/Partial blocks|partial blocks]] should be enabled on the English Wikipedia. If enabled, this functionality would allow administrators to block users from editing specific pages or namespaces, rather than the entire site.
:*A [[Wikipedia:Village_pump_(proposals)#Proposal:_Procedural_removal_of_admin_rights_who_have_not_used_the_admin_tools_for_a_significant_period_of_time_(maybe_5_years)|proposal]] asks whether admins who don't use their tools for a significant period of time (e.g. five years) should have the toolset procedurally removed.
:*Following a [[Special:Permalink/930227008#RfC on autopatrolling redirects|successful RfC]], a whitelist is now available for users whose [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Reviewers/Redirect autopatrol|redirects will be autopatrolled]] by a bot, removing them from the [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol|new pages patrol]] queue. Admins can add such users to [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Redirect whitelist]] after a discussion following the guidelines at [[Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Redirect whitelist]].

[[File:Scale of justice 2.svg|20px|alt=]] '''Arbitration'''
:* The [[Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Palestine-Israel articles 4|fourth case on Palestine-Israel articles]] was [[Special:Permalink/931649192#Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Palestine-Israel articles 4 closed|closed]]. The case consolidated all previous remedies under one heading, which should make them easier to understand, apply, and enforce. In particular, the distinction between "primary articles" and "related content" has been clarified, with the former being {{tq|the entire set of articles whose topic relates to the Arab-Israeli conflict, broadly interpreted}} rather than {{tq|reasonably construed}}.
:* Following the [[Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee Elections December 2019#Results|2019 Arbitration Committee elections]], the following editors have been appointed to the Arbitration Committee: {{noping|Beeblebrox}}, {{noping|Bradv}}, {{noping|Casliber}}, {{noping|David Fuchs}}, {{noping|DGG}}, {{noping|KrakatoaKatie}}, {{noping|Maxim}}, {{noping|Newyorkbrad}}, {{noping|SoWhy}}, {{noping|Worm That Turned}}, {{noping|Xeno}}.

<div style="border-style:solid; border-color:#606060; background-color:#f8f8f8; border-width:2px; text-align:left; padding:7px;" class="plainlinks">
Updates associated with [[:m:User:DannyS712/Global watchlist|DannyS712's Global watchlist script]]:

;Future development
* I have requested a grant to fund conversion of this script into an extension, as well as further development. Please see [[:m:Grants:Project/Create a global watchlist extension]].
* If anyone is interested in reviewing the code and making suggestions regarding coding style, techniques, or something else, please let me know. See [[phab:T234507]] for more.

;Recent additions
* I have added basic tests for the script, so bugs should be less likely to make their way to the deployed versions of the script (both the unstable development version, and the stable release version).
* If there is an error with the script, the user will be notified and and the console will include a stack trace of the issue.

;Translations
* Many thanks to those that have contributed translations for the script's messages. Translation takes place at [[:m:User:DannyS712/Global watchlist/Translate]], and help is appreciated.
* Newly translated messages are added to the script when I notice them; if you have translated messages that aren't showing up, please let me know at [[:m:User talk:DannyS712]].

;Next release
* Version 8.0 was just finalized for the development and stable branches of the script.

To subscribe or unsubscribe from future updates, see [[:m:User:DannyS712/Global watchlist/Updates|the distribution list]].

== New Page Reviewer newsletter February 2020 ==

[[File:Wikipedia New page reviewer.svg|right|100px]]
Hello {{BASEPAGENAME}},

;Source Guide Discussion
The first [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Source guide discussions/Ghana|NPP source guide]] discussion is now underway. It covers a wide range of sources in Ghana with the goal of providing more guidance to reviewers about sources they might see when reviewing pages. Hopefully, new page reviewers will join others interested in reliable sources and those with expertise in these sources to make the discussion a success.

;Redirects
New to NPP? Looking to try something a little different? Consider patrolling some redirects. Redirects are relatively easy to review, can be found easily through the [[Special:NewPagesFeed|New Pages Feed]].  You can find more information about how to patrol redirects at [[WP:RPATROL]].

;Discussions and Resources
*There is an [[Wikipedia:Village_pump_(idea_lab)#Improving_new_article_edit_notice|ongoing discussion]] around changing notifications for new editors who attempt to write articles.
*A recent discussion of whether [[Michelin star|Michelin starred]] restraunts are notable was [[Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Noticeboard/Archive_284#RFC_on_Michelin_stars_as_a_reliable_source_for_notability_of_restaurants|archived without closure]].
*A [[Wikipedia:New_pages_patrol/Resources|resource page]] with links pertinent for reviewers was created this month.
*A [[Wikipedia:Village_pump_(policy)#Increasing_the_scope_of_WP%3AG5_vis-a-vis_socking.|proposal]] to increase the scope of G5 was withdrawn.

;Refresher
[[WP:GEOLAND|Geographic regions, areas and places]] generally do not need [[WP:GNG|general notability guideline]] type sourcing. When evaluating whether an article meets this notability guideline please also consider whether it might actually be a form of [[WP:SPAM]] for a development project (e.g. PR for a large luxury residential development) and not actually covered by the guideline.

:*Following an [[Special:Permalink/943139910#Align_checkuser/oversight_block_policies_with_established_practice|RfC]], the blocking policy was changed to state that sysops {{tq|must not}} undo or alter CheckUser or Oversight blocks, rather than {{tq|should not}}.

[[File:Octicons-tools.svg|20px|alt=]] '''Technical news'''
:* Following a [[Wikipedia:Administrators%27 noticeboard/Archive317#Twinkle and speedies|discussion]], Twinkle's default CSD behavior will soon change, most likely this week.  After the change, Twinkle will default to "tagging mode" if there is ''no'' CSD tag present, and default to "deletion mode" if there ''is'' a CSD tag present.  You will be able to always default to "deletion mode" (the current behavior) using your [[WP:TW/PREF|Twinkle preferences]].

<em>[[m:VisualEditor/Newsletter/2020/April|Read this in another language]] • [[Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Newsletter|Subscription list]]</em>

[[File:TalkPages-Reply-v1.0.png|thumb|300px|alt=Screenshot showing what the Reply tool looks like|This early version of the Reply tool automatically signs and indents comments.]]

The [[mw:Editing|Editing team]] has been working on [[mw:Talk pages project|the talk pages project]].  The goal of the talk pages project is to help contributors communicate on wiki more easily.  This project is the result of the [[mw:Talk pages consultation 2019|Talk pages consultation 2019]]. 

[[File:TalkPages-Reply-v2.0.png|thumb|300px|alt=Reply tool improved with edit tool buttons|In a future update, the team plans to test a tool for easily linking to another user's name, a rich-text editing option, and other tools.]]

The team is building a [[mw:Talk pages project/replying|new tool for replying]] to comments now.  This early version can sign and indent comments automatically.  <strong>Please [[mw:Talk pages project/replying/prototype testing#Reply%20version%201.0|test the new Reply tool]].</strong>  

*On 31 March 2020, the new {{Int:discussiontools-replylink}} tool was offered as a [[mw:Beta Feature|Beta Feature]] editors at four Wikipedias:  [[w:ar:Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures|Arabic]], [[w:nl:Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures|Dutch]], [[w:fr:Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures|French]], and [[w:hu:Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures|Hungarian]].  If your community also wants early access to the new tool, contact [[User:Whatamidoing (WMF)]].
*The team is planning some upcoming changes.  <strong>Please [[mw:Talk pages project/replying#Version%202.0|review the proposed design]] and share your thoughts on the talk page.</strong>  The team will test features such as:
**an easy way to mention another editor ("pinging"), 
**a rich-text visual editing option, and 
**other features identified through user testing or recommended by editors.  

To hear more about Editing Team updates, please add your name to the [[mw:Talk pages project#Get involved|<strong>"Get involved"</strong>]] section of the project page. You can also watch [[File:MediaWiki Vector skin blue star watchlist icon.svg|frameless|16px]] these pages: [[mw:Talk pages project|the main project page]], [[mw:Talk pages project/Updates|Updates]], [[mw:Talk pages project/replying|Replying]], and [[mw:Talk pages project/replying/prototype testing|User testing]].

<div style="border-style:solid; border-color:#606060; background-color:#f8f8f8; border-width:2px; text-align:left; padding:7px;" class="plainlinks">
Updates associated with [[:m:User:DannyS712/Global watchlist|DannyS712's Global watchlist script]]:

;Future development
* I have requested a grant to fund conversion of this script into an extension, as well as further development. Please see [[:m:Grants:Project/DannyS712/Create a global watchlist extension]].
* If anyone is interested in reviewing the code and making suggestions regarding coding style, techniques, or something else, please let me know. See [[phab:T234507]] for more.

;Recent additions
* The results for each site, as well as the list of sites without changes, can be collapsed; the list of sites without changes starts collapsed.
* When the username associated with an edit has been hidden (either via revision deletion or suppression) this is now properly shown in the output, rather than showing "undefined".
* Links to view changes open in new tabs.
* When marking a site (or all sites) as seen, only changes made prior to the watchlist loading will be marked as seen, so that any changes since then are not missed.
* There is now a help link in the upper right hand corner that links to [[:m:User:DannyS712/Global watchlist]], though it doesn't have the normal help icon.

;Translations
* Many thanks to those that have contributed translations for the script's messages. Translation takes place at [[:m:User:DannyS712/Global watchlist/Translate]], and help is appreciated.
* Newly translated messages are added to the script when I notice them; if you have translated messages that aren't showing up, please let me know at [[:m:User talk:DannyS712]].

;Next release
* Version 9.0.0 was just finalized for the development and stable branches of the script.

To subscribe or unsubscribe from future updates, see [[:m:User:DannyS712/Global watchlist/Updates|the distribution list]].

* [[Wikipedia:User scripts/Most imported scripts]] now also shows the number of active users for each script. It will now be updated by a bot periodically.
* Twinkle's [[MediaWiki:Gadget-morebits.js|Morebits library]] added a new <code>Morebits.date</code> class to replace the moment library. It can handle custom formatting and natural language for dates, as well as section header regexes. If you were using <code>getUTCMonthName</code> or <code>getUTCMonthNameAbbrev</code> with <code>Date</code> objects, those have been deprecated and should [[Wikipedia_talk:Twinkle#Technical_changes|be updated]].
* [[User:SD0001/find-archived-section]] was made a gadget. You can enable it from your [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-gadgets|gadget preferences]], in the Browsing section.

== Editing news 2020 #2 – Quick updates ==

<em>[[m:VisualEditor/Newsletter/2020/June|Read this in another language]] • [[Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Newsletter|Subscription list]]</em>

[[File:TalkPages-Reply-v2.0.png|alt=Mockup of the new reply feature, showing new editing tools|thumb|400x400px|The new features include a toolbar.  [[mw:Talk:Talk pages project/replying|What do you think should be in the toolbar?]]]]

This edition of the [[mw:Editing|Editing]] newsletter includes information the [[Wikipedia:Talk pages project]], an effort to help contributors communicate on wiki more easily.  The [[mw:Talk pages project|central project page is on MediaWiki.org.]]

* [[mw:Talk pages project/replying|<strong>Reply tool</strong>]]: This is available as a Beta Feature at the four partner wikis (Arabic, Dutch, French, and Hungarian Wikipedias).  The Beta Feature will get [[mw:Talk pages project/replying#Version%202.0|new features]] soon.  The new features include writing comments in a new visual editing mode and pinging other users by typing <code>@</code>. You can [[mw:Talk pages project/replying/prototype testing#Reply%20tool%20version%202.0|test the new features]] on the [[mw:Beta Cluster|Beta Cluster]].  Some other wikis will have a chance to try the Beta Feature in the coming months.
* [[mw:New requirements for user signatures|<strong>New requirements for user signatures</strong>]]:  Soon, users will not be able to save invalid custom signatures in [[Special:Preferences]]. This will reduce signature spoofing, prevent page corruption, and make new talk page tools more reliable.  Most editors will not be affected.
* [[mw:Talk pages project/New discussion|<strong>New discussion tool</strong>]]:  The Editing team is beginning work on a simpler process for starting new discussions.   You can [[mw:Talk pages project/New discussion#Design|see the initial design on the project page]].
* [[m:Research:Usage of talk pages|<strong>Research on the use of talk pages</strong>]]:  The Editing team worked with the [[mw:Wikimedia research|Wikimedia research team]] to study how talk pages help editors improve articles.  We learned that new editors who use talk pages make more edits to the main namespace than new editors who don't use talk pages.

Hello {{BASEPAGENAME}},

;Your help can make a difference 
[[User:SDZeroBot/NPP sorting|NPP Sorting]] can be a great way to find pages needing new page patrolling that match your strengths and interests. Using ORES, it divides articles into topics such as Literature or Chemistry and on Geography. Take a look and see if you can find time to patrol a couple pages a day. With over 10,000 pages in the queue, the highest it's been since [[WP:ACPERM|ACPERM]], your help could really make a difference. 
 
;Google Adds New Languages to Google Translate
In late February, Google added 5 new languages to Google Translate: Kinyarwanda, Odia (Oriya), Tatar, Turkmen and Uyghur. This expands our ability to find and evaluate sources in those languages.
 
;Discussions and Resources
*A [[Wikipedia:Village_pump_(policy)#Paid_editing|discussion]] on handling new article creation by paid editors is ongoing at the Village Pump.
*Also at the Village Pump is a [[Wikipedia:Village_pump_(policy)#Is_it_time_to_place_greater_restrictions_on_AfD?|discussion]] about limiting participation at Articles for Deletion discussion.
*A proposed new [[Wikipedia_talk:Criteria_for_speedy_deletion/Archive_77#Proposed_new_CSD_criterion:_R5,_for_redirects_with_malformed_or_misspelled_(disambiguation)_qualifiers|speedy deletion criteria]] for certain kinds of redirects ended with no consensus.
*Also ending with no change was a [[Wikipedia_talk:Non-free_content/Archive_70#RfC_on_converting_fair-use_raster_graphics_to_vector_graphics_as_it_relates_to_criterion_3b|proposal]] to change how we handle certain kinds of vector images.
