Should this article be compliant with Scratch community guidelines?

I get that Wikipedia is not censored, but several users on Scratch link to this article. If I remember correctly, I have also linked to this article. However, this article does slightly violate the guidelines due to the mentioning of Scratch Addons, a browser extension. Scratch does not allow mentioning browser extensions.^[1] Should we keep this article compliant with Scratch's guidelines?

Wikipedia is separate from Scratch, and it is their duty to moderate the website, not ours. — 𝟷.𝟸𝟻𝚔𝚖 (𝚝𝚊𝚕𝚔) 18:56, 21 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

if the users linked to any other website that goes against the CGs on Scratch they should expect to be warned/punished. Why should Wikipedia be any different? Also, to avoid linking to it, if they have to find info from this article they can probably rephrase what they need. --cheesewhisk3rs (pester) 00:07, 25 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 10 June 2025

It is requested that an edit be made to the semi-protected article at Scratch (programming language). (edit · history · last · links · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{ESp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.

Change the latest mobile version from 3.29.1 to 3.0.66-minSdk26 3.0.66-minSdk26 was released on June 9, 2025. 2601:483:400:2780:99F1:813B:1F2C:3921 (talk) 01:04, 10 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
