I am trying to help a friend who is a actor, author, detective. Who has had a t.v. show on the history channel and had been on many TV shows and news interviews and has written several books. He has a YouTube page with 115k subs. He is asking me why he doesn't have a wiki page and I cannot figure this stuff out. He was the lead actor on the hunt for the zodiac t.v series on history channel and has a peacock series about to start very soon. Just seems odd he's solved cold case murders and been on TV was an fbi task force member undercover narcotics and now celebrity but he's not on wiki but all his co stars are. He also have a fb group called unsolved no more. His youtube group with 115k subs is called unsolved no more. I can help verify his identify etc but he's easily verified on imdb, and news articles both local, national paper news and t.v. news Nancy grace type stuff. --] (]) 16:02, 12 October 2024 (UTC)

Scammers on Misplaced Pages.

Hi Vernon! Admin Liz suggested me to contact you about simple wikipedia. This is a famous convicted scammer with the fake agency for bots and fake accounts online.All the articles there are paid and fake and you can see that when you check them. https://simple.wikipedia.org/Michael_Graziano

They made a Simple wikipedia page to keep scamming people online. This is their scam agency, it is called Mindful/Monopolize. https://www.mindfulagency.com/ One of their "owners", a convicted pedophile was jailed last year.https://whoradio.iheart.com/content/2022-09-01-nevada-man-accused-of-child-sex-assault-arrested-in-iowa/

Here is the article about their scam with link to the lawsuits. It is disgusting. Do you know how to nominate that page to be deleted?His contributions are for the same scammers and his team. Someone I know was scammed by them.  https://www.thephoblographer.com/2023/06/27/photographer-sues-monopolize-for-50k-in-the-craziest-story-ever/ Moondust534 (talk) 20:52, 2 December 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Moondust534! I've nominated the article for deletion; you're correct that basically all of the sources are paid. Thanks for sending a message about this. Vermont (🐿️—🏳️‍🌈) 22:16, 2 December 2024 (UTC)
Thanks! It also shows this scammer MichaelG created one more promo page. It was deleted on wikipedia, bots seem to make a page on simple wikipedia. Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Lika O Not sure if it qualifies for speedy deletions. instructions say to consider speedy deletion first. https://simple.wikipedia.org/Wikipedia:Requests_for_deletion I am trying to figure out how to learn to nominate a page on simple Misplaced Pages, but instructions are a little complicated.
Here. https://simple.wikipedia.org/Lika_O
Text it the same. It does not meet WP:BIO, WP:ANYBIO , WP:ATH ,WP:PROF,WP:ENT. All the sources are blatantly promotional. Moondust534 (talk) 01:26, 3 December 2024 (UTC)

Tech News: 2024-49

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Updates for editors

  • Two new parser functions were added this week. The {{#interwikilink}} function adds an interwiki link and the {{#interlanguagelink}} function adds an interlanguage link. These parser functions are useful on wikis where namespaces conflict with interwiki prefixes. For example, links beginning with MOS: on English Misplaced Pages conflict with the mos language code prefix of Mooré Misplaced Pages.
  • Starting this week, Wikimedia wikis no longer support connections using old RSA-based HTTPS certificates, specifically rsa-2048. This change is to improve security for all users. Some older, unsupported browser or smartphone devices will be unable to connect; Instead, they will display a connectivity error. See the HTTPS Browser Recommendations page for more-detailed information. All modern operating systems and browsers are always able to reach Wikimedia projects.
  • Starting December 16, Flow/Structured Discussions pages will be automatically archived and set to read-only at the following wikis: arwiki, cawiki, frwiki, mediawikiwiki, orwiki, wawiki, wawiktionary, wikidatawiki, zhwiki. This is done as part of StructuredDiscussions deprecation work. If you need any assistance to archive your page in advance, please contact Trizek (WMF).
  • This month the Chart extension was deployed to production and is now available on Commons and Testwiki. With the security review complete, pilot wiki deployment is expected to start in the first week of December. You can see a working version on Testwiki and read the November project update for more details.
  • View all 23 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week. For example, a bug with the "Download as PDF" system was fixed.

Updates for technical contributors

  • In late February, temporary accounts will be rolled out on at least 10 large wikis. This deployment will have a significant effect on the community-maintained code. This is about Toolforge tools, bots, gadgets, and user scripts that use IP address data or that are available for logged-out users. The Trust and Safety Product team wants to identify this code, monitor it, and assist in updating it ahead of the deployment to minimize disruption to workflows. The team asks technical editors and volunteer developers to help identify such tools by adding them to this list. In addition, review the updated documentation to learn how to adjust the tools. Join the discussions on the project talk page or in the dedicated thread on the Wikimedia Community Discord server (in English) for support and to share feedback.

Tech News: 2024-50

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Weekly highlight

  • Technical documentation contributors can find updated resources, and new ways to connect with each other and the Wikimedia Technical Documentation Team, at the Documentation hub on MediaWiki.org. This page links to: resources for writing and improving documentation, a new #wikimedia-techdocs IRC channel on libera.chat, a listing of past and upcoming documentation events, and ways to request a documentation consultation or review. If you have any feedback or ideas for improvements to the documentation ecosystem, please contact the Technical Documentation Team.

Updates for editors

Layout change for the Edit Check feature
  • Later this week, Edit Check will be relocated to a sidebar on desktop. Edit check is the feature for new editors to help them follow policies and guidelines. This layout change creates space to present people with new Checks that appear while they are typing. The initial results show newcomers encountering Edit Check are 2.2 times more likely to publish a new content edit that includes a reference and is not reverted.
  • The Chart extension, which enables editors to create data visualizations, was successfully made available on MediaWiki.org and three pilot wikis (Italian, Swedish, and Hebrew Wikipedias). You can see a working examples on Testwiki and read the November project update for more details.
  • Translators in wikis where the mobile experience of Content Translation is available, can now discover articles in Wikiproject campaigns of their interest from the "All collection" category in the articles suggestion feature. Wikiproject Campaign organizers can use this feature, to help translators to discover articles of interest, by adding the <page-collection> </page-collection> tag to their campaign article list page on Meta-wiki. This will make those articles discoverable in the Content Translation tool. For more detailed information on how to use the tool and tag, please refer to the step-by-step guide.
  • The Nuke feature, which enables administrators to mass delete pages, now has a multiselect filter for namespace selection. This enables users to select multiple specific namespaces, instead of only one or all, when fetching pages for deletion.
  • The Nuke feature also now provides links to the userpage of the user whose pages were deleted, and to the pages which were not selected for deletion, after page deletions are queued. This enables easier follow-up admin-actions. Thanks to Chlod and the Moderator Tools team for both of these improvements.
  • The Editing Team is working on making it easier to populate citations from archive.org using the Citoid tool, the auto-filled citation generator. They are asking communities to add two parameters preemptively, archiveUrl and archiveDate, within the TemplateData for each citation template using Citoid. You can see an example of a change in a template, and a list of all relevant templates.
  • One new wiki has been created: a Wikivoyage in Indonesian (voy:id:)
  • Last week, all wikis had problems serving pages to logged-in users and some logged-out users for 30–45 minutes. This was caused by a database problem, and investigation is ongoing.
  • Recurrent item View all 19 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week. For example, a bug in the Add Link feature has been fixed. Previously, the list of sections which are excluded from Add Link was partially ignored in certain cases.

Updates for technical contributors

  • Codex, the design system for Wikimedia, now has an early-stage implementation in PHP. It is available for general use in MediaWiki extensions and Toolforge apps through Composer, with use in MediaWiki core coming soon. More information is available in the documentation. Thanks to Doğu for the inspiration and many contributions to the library.
  • Wikimedia REST API users, such as bot operators and tool maintainers, may be affected by ongoing upgrades. On December 4, the MediaWiki Interfaces team began rerouting page/revision metadata and rendered HTML content endpoints on testwiki from RESTbase to comparable MediaWiki REST API endpoints. The team encourages active users of these endpoints to verify their tool's behavior on testwiki and raise any concerns on the related Phabricator ticket before the end of the year, as they intend to roll out the same change across all Wikimedia projects in early January. These changes are part of the work to replace the outdated RESTBase system.
  • The 2024 Developer Satisfaction Survey is seeking the opinions of the Wikimedia developer community. Please take the survey if you have any role in developing software for the Wikimedia ecosystem. The survey is open until 3 January 2025, and has an associated privacy statement.
  • There is no new MediaWiki version this week.

  • Users of the Android Misplaced Pages App in Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia can see the new Rabbit Holes feature. This feature shows a suggested search term in the Search bar based on the current article being viewed, and a suggested reading list generated from the user’s last two visited articles.
  • The global reminder bot is now active and running on nearly 800 wikis. This service reminds most users holding temporary rights when they are about to expire, so that they can renew should they want to. See the technical details page for more information.
  • The next issue of Tech News will be sent out on 13 January 2025 because of the end of year holidays. Thank you to all of the translators, and people who submitted content or feedback, this year.
  • Recurrent item View all 27 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week. For example, a bug was fixed in the Android Misplaced Pages App which had caused translatable SVG images to show the wrong language when they were tapped.

Updates for technical contributors

  • There is no new MediaWiki version next week. The next deployments will start on 14 January.
