Question from Adnan Anamul on Talk:Jude Bellingham (21:32, 16 May 2024) edit
I love football and consider myself a good football player. I emulate you. My dream is to see you up close, I don't think this dream will come true. I want to show you my talent. I live in Bangladesh. --Adnan Anamul (talk) 21:32, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

Tech News: 2024-21 edit
Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.
Recent changes
- The Nuke feature, which enables administrators to mass delete pages, will now correctly delete pages which were moved to another title. [1]
- New changes have been made to the UploadWizard in Wikimedia Commons: the overall layout has been improved, by following new styling and spacing for the form and its fields; the headers and helper text for each of the fields was changed; the Caption field is now a required field, and there is an option for users to copy their caption into the media description. [2][3]
Changes later this week
- The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 21 May. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 22 May. It will be on all wikis from 23 May (calendar). [4][5]
- The HTML used to render all headings is being changed to improve accessibility. It will change on 22 May in some skins (Timeless, Modern, CologneBlue, Nostalgia, and Monobook). Please test gadgets on your wiki on these skins and report any related problems so that they can be resolved before this change is made in all other skins. The developers are also considering the introduction of a Gadget API for adding buttons to section titles if that would be helpful to tool creators, and would appreciate any input you have on that.

Greek Orthodox Church edit
The page was protected with an edit made only half way. The last line in the list (Exarchate under the jurisdiction of the Orthodox Church in America (itself not part of Greek Orthodoxy)) was the header of the Albanian Archdiocese within OCA. Without it, the header could be deleted. I would do it myself, but I am not an editor. THanks. Coquidragon (talk) 00:26, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
- @Coquidragon.. and you found yourself able to edit it now. :) I had a longer message about waiting for the protection to lapse, but you had already done it. Hopefully it does not bring about much contention while the discussion is still on ongoing! – robertsky (talk) 17:01, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
how do you get the motivation to edit actively for multiple years for almost nothing in return, do you have a job? --Jeees777 (talk) 16:43, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
- @Jeees777, glad that you had asked. I have a job, but both do not interfere with each other.
- See https://xkcd.com/386/ It sums up perfectly the primary motivation. And the environment here is conducive for discourse to happen.
- After awhile, you gain a community here. Or two. Or three. Or on and on and on... Over time you will develop friendships with others here, sharing the same goal of building the repository of open knowledge be it by content, technical or other types of contributions.

NPP School edit
Hey, Robert, I hope you are well. I recently discovered the NPP school. There is a lot of information available on that page, except for one thing that I also want to know: What will happen after completing the school? Will the graduate be granted NPP rights? GrabUp - Talk 09:19, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
- @Grabup, not sure. I didn't go through it. I went through the rough and tumble of AFC first before doing NPP. But looking at those who were previously trained, the graduates are typically granted the right if there are no further issues found by the reviewing admin. Of course, at the very least, the minimum conditions of granting the rights are still applicable. One should not use NPP school as a shortcut into getting the rights. – robertsky (talk) 09:27, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for the information, I am also going throught AfC reviewing, till now I have reviewed 280 articles and thank you for granting me Rollback rights. I am actively countering vandalism with AntiVandal. GrabUp - Talk 09:31, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
