== Ezpr2 bug with empty custom message ==
Issue: .... then, i clicked submit, and the story published. I left weird looking messages to users: they included template, one user was addressed by name and others were addressed as "User".
Proposed fix: I think if i specified custom message but did not fill it in, i should get asked to fill it in before submitting my review. (Also, in edit summary to user talk page, the section name should be included so i can click it in edit history page, and go directly to that section.)
Hope it makes sense...
Thanks a lot. [[User:Gryllida|Gryllida]] ([[User talk:Gryllida|talk]]) 12:43, 22 March 2026 (UTC)
:@[[User:Gryllida|Gryllida]]: The issue with the {{{user}}} parameter showing as resolved has been fixed. I recently made some modifications to the notification system, and I guess I introduced that bug during the process. Sorry about that.
:Regarding the template being used when the custom comment is empty: that was intentional, as otherwise an empty section would be created on the user's talk page. I will also add a check so that if the custom comment is empty, the reviewer cannot submit the review. -- [[User:Asked42|Asked42]] ([[User talk:Asked42|talk]]) 13:17, 22 March 2026 (UTC)

== "Incorrectly flagged articles" ==
At [[Wikinews:Newsroom]], there is a section labeled "Incorrectly flagged articles". This section appears to be a mess. There are four retracted older articles in there, which are supposedly "incorrectly" flagged, but it is unknown what was incorrect about the flagging of those articles. Two of those articles are from 2013, one from 2021, and the other from 2025, so if anything is supposed to be done about them, it should be done already.
However, the fifth article is [[Two Cuba-bound aid boats located by Mexican Navy after going missing]], an article which is currently {{tl|under review}}. It hasn't been "flagged" either correctly or incorrectly but is being reviewed. It ought to be listed in the "Submitted for peer review" section (where it does not currently appear) and omitted from "Incorrectly flagged articles".
I asked a somewhat similar question at [[Wikinews:Water cooler/miscellaneous/archives/2025/October]] but the problem doesn't appear to have been resolved. -- [[User:Metropolitan90|Metropolitan90]] ([[User talk:Metropolitan90|talk]]) 03:05, 30 March 2026 (UTC)
: In the case of the article [[Two Cuba-bound aid boats located by Mexican Navy after going missing]], it has been marked stable ("flagged" in FlaggedRevs) in error, before being published. This can happen if a reviewer "sights" or approves changes before the article is published, which is relatively easy to accidentally do. [[User:Bawolff/sandbox/powerFlag]] no longer seems to work to de-flag articles in FlaggedRevs. But that article should disappear from the list once it's published or deleted as abandoned.
: The other issue is a lack of consensus or documentation on exactly how to retract an article.[[User:Michael.C.Wright|Michael.C.Wright]] (<sup>[[User_talk:Michael.C.Wright|Talk]]</sup>/<sub>[[User:Michael.C.Wright/reviewer|Reviewer]]</sub>) 07:02, 30 March 2026 (UTC)

== Action Required: Update templates/modules for electoral maps (Migrating from P1846 to P14226) ==
Hello everyone,
This is a notice regarding an ongoing data migration on Wikidata that may affect your election-related templates and Lua modules (such as <code>Module:Itemgroup/list</code>).
'''The Change:'''<br />
Currently, many templates pull electoral maps from Wikidata using the property [[:d:Property:P1846|P1846]], combined with the qualifier [[:d:Property:P180|P180]]: [[:d:Q19571328|Q19571328]].
We are migrating this data (across roughly 4,000 items) to a newly created, dedicated property: '''[[:d:Property:P14226|P14226]]'''.
'''What You Need To Do:'''<br />
To ensure your templates and infoboxes do not break or lose their maps, please update your local code to fetch data from [[:d:Property:P14226|P14226]] instead of the old [[:d:Property:P1846|P1846]] + [[:d:Property:P180|P180]] structure. A [[m:Wikidata/Property Migration: P1846 to P14226/List|list of pages]] was generated using Wikimedia Global Search.
'''Deadline:'''<br />
We are temporarily retaining the old data on [[:d:Property:P1846|P1846]] to allow for a smooth transition. However, to complete the data cleanup on Wikidata, the old [[:d:Property:P1846|P1846]] statements will be removed after '''May 1, 2026'''. Please update your modules and templates before this date to prevent any disruption to your wiki's election articles.
Let us know if you have any questions or need assistance with the query logic. Thank you for your help! [[User:ZI Jony|ZI Jony]] using [[User:MediaWiki message delivery|MediaWiki message delivery]] ([[User talk:MediaWiki message delivery|talk]]) 17:09, 3 April 2026 (UTC)

== Main page leads not updating properly ==
The leads for the Main page are not updating properly on the main page, for some reason. They are correctly displayed when viewed individually. They are no longer using FlaggedRevs, so it isn't a problem of sighting.
When I start to change the Main page, I can select "show preview" and the leads show correctly, but when I save changes to the main page, a cached version of the leads remains. The date is correct, so I know the page is updating. I also tried <code>?action=purge</code> at the end of the URL and that doesn't work.
They are properly displayed [[User:Michael.C.Wright/sandbox#Main_page_leads_test|in my Sandbox]]
It's visible across three different browsers for me, even after clearing my browser caches.
Any thoughts on what it could be?

== DPL, our archives, and potential bot use ==
Our archive pages, the pages that actually list our archived articles in an organized, structured manner, all use DPL and therefore will all be broken when DPL is uninstalled from the project.
I estimate 3-4 thousand pages are involved. For example all of the linked pages on [[Wikinews:Archives/Date/2010]] use DPL. There are 23 total "year" pages similar to that one, each with a page for nearly each month and a page for nearly each day of each month, all using DPL.
I have no idea how to fix that short of utilizing a bot, which has been offered by [[User:Ladsgroup|Ladsgroup]] on a related [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T421796#11830506 Phabricator ticket]. There are some catches:
# The bot was [[User talk:Dexbot#Unauthorized bot|indefinitely blocked]] by Pi zero 12 years ago,[https://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Dexbot] as it was "...operated without authorization in violation of project policy, and operated with an effective bot flag without local control as well as without authorization." Ladsgroup explained that the bot was removing inter-wiki translation links.[https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T421796#11831335] Given that Pi is no longer with us, I believe community consent to unblock is recommended.
# If the bot is unblocked, I believe it will still need admin and flood privileges in order to operate effectively, requiring community consent. We'd need to request a bureaucrat to make that change and there are already open and unresolved requests for them. We may need to engage Stewards. All of that would take time.
Questions:
* Are there any ideas for alternatives to the bot?
* Are there any thoughts on unblocking and utilizing the bot?
This isn't an official proposal yet, just seeing what others think.[[User:Michael.C.Wright|Michael.C.Wright]] (<sup>[[User_talk:Michael.C.Wright|Talk]]</sup>/<sub>[[User:Michael.C.Wright/reviewer|Reviewer]]</sub>) 15:12, 19 April 2026 (UTC)

Ladsgroup explained that the bot was removing inter-wiki translation links.[https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T421796#11831335] Given that Pi is no longer with us, I believe community consent to unblock is recommended.
# If the bot is unblocked, I believe it will still need admin and flood privileges in order to operate effectively, requiring community consent. We'd need to request a bureaucrat to make that change and there are already open and unresolved requests for them. We may need to engage Stewards. All of that would take time.
Questions:
* Are there any ideas for alternatives to the bot?
* Are there any thoughts on unblocking and utilizing the bot?
This isn't an official proposal yet, just seeing what others think.[[User:Michael.C.Wright|Michael.C.Wright]] (<sup>[[User_talk:Michael.C.Wright|Talk]]</sup>/<sub>[[User:Michael.C.Wright/reviewer|Reviewer]]</sub>) 15:12, 19 April 2026 (UTC)

== Board of Trustees Approves Closure of Wikinews ==
<section begin="message" />
Following [[:m:Public consultation about Wikinews|extended discussions]] within the Wikimedia movement about the Wikinews long-term sustainability, levels of community activity, and the availability of reliable news coverage on other platforms, the Board of Trustees of the Wikimedia Foundation has [[:m:Wikimedia Foundation Board noticeboard#Board of Trustees Approves Closure of Wikinews|approved the closure]] of Wikinews.
Following this decision, all Wikinews editions will transition to read-only mode one month after this announcement, on 4 May. From that date onward, pages on Wikinews will remain publicly accessible for reading, reference and dump downloading, but editing and new content creation will no longer be possible.
Further information about the technical transition to read-only mode and the preservation of existing content will be shared in the coming weeks.
We thank all contributors who have participated in Wikinews over the years and helped build a unique experiment in collaborative journalism within the Wikimedia movement, and we understand that some of them might be disappointed by this decision. To our regret, the project wasn’t able to fulfil its promise, and many of its functions were eclipsed by the notable news coverage in Wikipedias. We hope the Wikinews editors will continue contributing to the other Wikimedia projects or free knowledge projects.<section end="message"/>

::::@[[User:Lofi Gurl|Lofi Gurl]] Agree, very sad. How can one claw back internet space from social media if the place which actually had RSS news feeds gets frozen? Want to recreate Wikinews in a different place, where it cannot be closed. And once that works, prepare for migration of whatever other project they will close next. Wikivoyage? Because at that rate, I have no willingness to contribute to Wikipedia itself - they are keeping it "relevant" by absorbing news reporting into encyclopaedia, which is cheating (and I don't think they have RSS feed - because their "breaking news" articles are not 'prepare and publish', they are 'publish and edit and improve over time').

<section begin="technews-2026-W14"/><div class="plainlinks">
Latest '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News|tech news]]''' from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2026/14|Translations]] are available.
'''Weekly highlight'''
* The Beta version of [[abstract:|Abstract Wikipedia]] a new Wikimedia project which is language-independent, was launched last week. The project allows communities to build Wikipedia articles in their native language, which can be readily accessed by other users in their own languages. The wiki is powered by instructions from Wikifunctions and also based on structured content from Wikidata. [[:f:Special:MyLanguage/Wikifunctions:Status updates/2026-03-26|Read more]].
'''Updates for editors'''
* The Growth team is running an A/B test to evaluate a clearer, more user-friendly message that promotes account creation on wikis. Currently when logged-out mobile users begin editing, they see a jarring warning message that can feel abrupt and discouraging. This also presents temporary account editing as the default rather than encouraging account creation. The test is running on ten Wikipedias, including Arabic, French, Spanish and German. [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Contributors/Account Creation Experiments#2. Improve logged-out warning message (T415160)|Read more]].
* The Wikimedia Apps team is inviting feedback on [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Apps/Team/Future of Editing on the Mobile Apps|how editing should work on the Wikipedia mobile apps]]. The discussion focuses on improving how users access editing tools when they tap "Edit". This is part of a broader effort to convert readers who develop an interest in editing, to access a more user-friendly pathway to start contributing.
* [[File:Reload icon with two arrows.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] View all {{formatnum:45}} community-submitted {{PLURAL:45|task|tasks}} that were [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]]. For example, an issue where citation fetching from the large newspaper archive [https://www.newspapers.com Newspapers.com] was no longer working, due to a block in [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Citoid|Citoid]] requests, has now been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T419903]
'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* [[File:Reload icon with two arrows.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] Detailed code updates later this week: [[mw:MediaWiki 1.46/wmf.22|MediaWiki]]

== So -- I guess this is it... ==
Some of you young ones hardly know that English WN and WMF federation have had an array of skirmishes for roughly the past 19 years or so -- but this battle is finally over. I've made some good memories here and engaged in a very righteous thing: Citizen journalism. I hope each of you will take good things away. For those who've offended me: All if forgiven.😁For those I've offended: I hope to be on the receiving end of the same courtesy. I've learned a lot here. I've engaged with some cool, smart people here too. If anyone intends to create a 'fork' of this project: Please let me know. Can't make any hard promises, but I wouldn't mind checking it out. Great wishes to one and all -- and here's to many good days ahead.--[[User:Bddpaux|Bddpaux]] ([[User talk:Bddpaux|talk]]) 01:02, 31 March 2026 (UTC)

== Excessive use of NSFW images in 1 RU WN article ==
I think [[:ru:Звездные мобильники: Ексей Пантелеев]] uses an excessive number of images. Since the uses makes these files '[[c:COM:INUSE|in use]]' and the project is due to be read-only in 1 month, now would be a good time to reduce the number of files included in it to a reasonable number. I don't speak Russian so I couldn't ask at the project or on the page's talk page. I think a smaller number of these files would be more appropriate and maybe people here could ask there and/or remove some of these files from the page if that's fine. [[User:Prototyperspective|Prototyperspective]] ([[User talk:Prototyperspective|talk]]) 15:32, 31 March 2026 (UTC)
: You can write in English at the RU forum. Anyways, those images are part of a [[commons:Category:Project "Geekography" by Exey Panteleev (nude portrayals of computer technology)|'Geekography']] photo set most of which isn't even in use, yet it remains. You could open a Commons RfD to take care of all of these photos, not just the ones used on that page. I imagine they'll be amenable there.

I have been maintaining wn-reporters.org mail server since @[[User:Brian McNeil|Brian McNeil]] passed away around July 4, 2020 -- Wow, it's been almost 6 years, that aches my heart. Wikinews was part of my entire college life -- it is going to be 11 years on enwn this May 1, but after Pi zero's death, and writing his obituary, it became very difficult for me to come back here. I will talk about this later. But for now, I would request you all to individually back up your own mailboxes. (I think if you log in via thunderbird, you would see an option to export the mails). I am not pulling the plug on the server yet. So you will have the access to mailboxes for the time being. Though should we move to some other host, we would have to see how we deal with the accredited requests and access to the mailboxes. For that, I will be lurking on Libera Chat, (OFTC, Slashnet, and tilde) on IRC as "acagastya". Additionally, I have my own IRC server irc.firebyagni.net:6667/6697 where I exist as "firebyagni".
Ages ago, I had created a discord server for wikinews, but noone came, apart from @[[User:Athozus|AirSThib]]. Should anyone want to come, for the old times sake as the wikinews diaspora, please feel free to join here: https://discord.gg/cCEzC8d.
I have had some amazing people who mentored me. I probably won't remember many of the people, but I am forever grateful to this wonderful community. Wikinews was wikinews for me because of pizero and without him, neither would I have been on enwn, nor would I have known anyone of you. @[[User:Abhinav619|Abhinav619]] @[[User:ImprovedWikiImprovment|ImprovedWikiImprovment]] @[[User:Tom Morris|Tom Morris]] @[[User:Chaetodipus|Chaetodipus]] @[[User:Microchip08|Microchip08]] @[[User:SVTCobra|SVTCobra]] @[[User:Tyrol5|Tyrol5]] @[[User:Cirt|Cirt]] @[[User:Darkfrog24|Darkfrog24]] @[[User:Amgine|Amgine]] @[[User:Wikiwide|Wikiwide]] @[[User:ShakataGaNai|ShakataGaNai]] @[[User:Blood Red Sandman|Blood Red Sandman]] @[[User:TUFKAAP|TUFKAAP]] @[[User:Skenmy|Skenmy]] @[[User:Zanimum|Zanimum]] @[[User:Cspurrier|Cspurrier]] @[[User:Hawkeye7|Hawkeye7]] @[[User:LauraHale|LauraHale]] @[[User:Crtew|Crtew]] @[[User:Ezarate|Ezarate]] @[[User:DARIO SEVERI|DARIO SEVERI]] @[[User:AlvaroMolina|AlvaroMolina]] @[[User:Gopher65|Gopher65]] @[[User:Bluerasberry|Bluerasberry]] @[[User:Henrymyman|Henrymyman]] @[[User:Xbspiro|Xbspiro]] @[[User:Alextejthompson|Rubbish computer]] @[[User:Edu!|Edu!]] @[[User:Revi C.|-revi]] @[[User:MGA73|MGA73]] @[[User:Tempodivalse|Tempodivalse]] @[[User:Numbermaniac|Numbermaniac]] @[[User:George Ho|George Ho]] @[[User:Cassiopeia|Cassiopeia]] @[[User:Handraulic|Handraulic]] @[[User:AZOperator|AZOperator]] @[[User:Yngvadottir|Yngvadottir]] @[[User:Cognitive137|Cognitive137]] and many more whom I forgot to ping -- thanks for being part of my mid-to-late teenage life. enwn reminds me when I had just finished the school, wrote my first article which failed the review, the first article that passed the review -- the college days, me leaving the first college, going to Bangalore, buying scratch cards of internet data pack to write articles, hand-writing the articles, IRC bouncers and IRC bots, telegram bridges; figuring out how to do OR, and BR, ComicCons, then media interviews and what not? When I think about it, it has been quite a journey. Including those days when I fought with pizero -- and I hated that. I have learnt a lot here, and I will be missing this community, which I cared in various degrees of capacity. No matter how little we might have interacted, your allegiance to enwn was something I respected!
If you feel like being in contact, please feel free to reach out to me. It really saddens me. And I think I will get a big bottle of beer on May 4, after the READONLY kicks in, and drink and cry.<br>[[User talk:Acagastya|<span style="color: #000; box-shadow: 0 0 7px #5de; padding-left:2.5px; padding-right:2.5px; border-radius:10px;">•–•</span>]] 11:08, 2 April 2026 (UTC)
:Thank you for all your contributions to wikinews, @[[User:Acagastya|Acagastya]]. I did not have many opportunities to collaborate with you, and I wish I had. I also have spent much of my college life contributing to Wikinews, and I guess that will end with it. Thank you again, and take care. -- [[User:Asked42|Asked42]] ([[User talk:Asked42|talk]]) 18:47, 2 April 2026 (UTC)
::Also BTW, there is a [https://t.me/WikinewsComm Telegram group for Wikinews]. It has been active for quite a while, and many users are present there, although I do not know their corresponding usernames. -- [[User:Asked42|Asked42]] ([[User talk:Asked42|talk]]) 18:58, 2 April 2026 (UTC)
:Actually, there is a discord server [https://discord.gg/dvBt5mxw here] already, there is more than 2 users on it. [[User:Gryllida|Gryllida]] ([[User talk:Gryllida|talk]]) 20:09, 2 April 2026 (UTC)
:It has been so nice working with you, @[[User:Acagastya|Acagastya]]!!!
:I think some issue with Wikinews are that it lacks social media exposure. Centralised 'one wiki somewhere' model can be confusing. Most real news papers pay someone to deliver their output to multiple channels (youtube, paper delivery to homes, newsletters to email, rss). These were not leveraged here. Even though things like Mastodon existed.
:I think one open source project had encouraged everyone to have a fork of it in GitHub, so they can experiment and merge later if their changes were substantial and successful. Perhaps someone could provide web hosting and ask everyone to create a fork if they wanted to maintain it and implement some ideas how to setup the workflow. These could possibly go into subdomains like 'Username-copy.wikinews.org' or 'Something-region-Username.wikinews.org'. Someone would need to go around and collect content from forks into their own fork. This could increase innovation for software and/or activate regional groups. While also making it more fragmented -- or not really, since content licence allows derivative works and re distribution, so someone could play around with how to present the same content to users differently. I think this could be inevitable.
:Connections with universities did not start beyond one university. This could be improved.
:Just a few thoughts on perspective in light of what you wrote above.
:(Wikinews helped me pass IELTS and TOEFL reading/writing components to 100%, and get a visa to Australia and cope with English language content in first year at uni. That was my impression.)
:Have a great day. [[User:Gryllida|Gryllida]] ([[User talk:Gryllida|talk]]) 20:20, 2 April 2026 (UTC)
== Tech News: 2026-15 ==
<section begin="technews-2026-W15"/><div class="plainlinks">
Latest '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News|tech news]]''' from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2026/15|Translations]] are available.
'''Updates for editors'''
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CampaignEvents|CampaignEvents extension]] now includes a new group goal-setting feature, enabling organizers to set and track event goals such as the number of articles created and participating contributors in real time. Similarly, participants can work toward shared targets and see their collective impact as the event unfolds. The feature is now available on all Wikimedia wikis. Learn more in [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CampaignEvents/Registration/Collaborative contributions#Goal setting|the documentation]].
* [[File:Maki-gift-15.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Wishlist item]] The new [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Watchlist labels|watchlist labels]] feature (announced in [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2026/07|Tech News 2026-07]]) is now available via VisualEditor, the source editor, and the 'watchstar' (or watch link, for skins that don't have a star icon). Previously it was only possible to assign labels via [[Special:EditWatchlist|EditWatchlist]]. In all three places it is a new field following the expiry field.
* [[File:Reload icon with two arrows.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] View all {{formatnum:23}} community-submitted {{PLURAL:23|task|tasks}} that were [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]]. For example, the issue where talk pages on mobile with Parsoid are unusable after empty section headers, has now been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T419171]
'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* The [[m:Special:MyLanguage/WMDE Technical Wishes/Sub-referencing|sub-referencing feature]], which lets editors add details to an existing reference without duplicating it, will be gradually rolled out to [[phab:T414094|more wikis]] later this year. Wikis using the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reference Tooltips|Reference Tooltips]] gadget are encouraged to update their version (typically at [[m:MediaWiki:Gadget-ReferenceTooltips.js|MediaWiki:Gadget-ReferenceTooltips.js]] as shown [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=1344408362 here]) to ensure compatibility. Other reference-related gadgets may also be affected. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T416304]
* All Wikinews editions will be closed and switched to read-only mode on 4 May 2026. Content will remain accessible, but no new edits or articles can be added. This closure was approved by the Board of Trustees of the Wikimedia Foundation following extended discussions. [[m:Wikimedia Foundation Board noticeboard#Board of Trustees Approves Closure of Wikinews|Read more]].
* The [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/API:Action API|Action API]] has had several formats for requested output. One of them, <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>format=php</nowiki></code></bdi>, is being removed soon. Please ensure your scripts or bots use the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/API:Data formats#Output|JSON format]]. This removal should affect very few scripts and bots. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T118538]
* The [[Special:NamespaceInfo|Special:NamespaceInfo]] page now includes namespace aliases. For example "WP" for the "Project" ("Wikipedia") namespace on the German Wikipedia. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T381455]
* [[File:Reload icon with two arrows.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] Detailed code updates later this week: [[mw:MediaWiki 1.46/wmf.23|MediaWiki]]

'''Weekly highlight'''
* Experienced editors are invited to [https://b24e11a4f1.catalyst.wmcloud.org/wiki/Main_Page test] the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Article guidance|Article guidance]] feature, designed to help less-experienced editors create well-structured, policy-compliant Wikipedia articles. Testing instructions are [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Article guidance/Test feature guide|available]]. Also, after reviewing [https://b24e11a4f1.catalyst.wmcloud.org/wiki/Category:Pages_using_article_guidance the outlines], please provide feedback on the [[mw:Talk:Article guidance|project talk page]]. Based on your input, the feature will be refined and transferred to the pilot Wikipedias to translate and adapt. Check out [[c:File:Article Guidance workflow demo - April 2026.webm|the video]] explaining the feature.
'''Updates for editors'''
* On most wikis, all autoconfirmed users can now use [[Special:ChangeContentModel|Special:ChangeContentModel]] page to [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:ChangeContentModel|create new pages with custom content models]], such as mass message lists, making custom page formats more accessible. Check [[Special:ListGroupRights|Special:ListGroupRights]] for the status of your wiki. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T248294]
* The Growth team has launched an [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Contributors/Account_Creation_Experiments|account creation experiment]] to evaluate whether adding an account creation button to the mobile web header increases new account registrations and encourages more mobile users to contribute to the wikis. The experiment is currently live on Hindi, Indonesian, Bengali, Thai, and Hebrew Wikipedia, and targets 10% of logged-out mobile web users.
* [[File:Reload icon with two arrows.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] View all {{formatnum:30}} community-submitted {{PLURAL:30|task|tasks}} that were [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]]. For example, an issue where VisualEditor could get stuck loading on Windows devices with animations turned off, has now been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T382856]
'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* Starting later this week, {{int:group-abusefilter}} who have the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror|{{int:codemirror-beta-feature-title}}]] beta feature enabled will have [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror]] instead of [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeEditor|CodeEditor]] as the editor at [[Special:AbuseFilter|Special:AbuseFilter]]. This is part of the broader effort to make the user experience more consistent across all editors. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T399673][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T419332]
* Tools and bots that access the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Notifications/API|Notifications API]] (<bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>action=query&meta=notifications</nowiki></code></bdi>) will need to update their OAuth or BotPassword grants to also include access to private notifications. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T421991]
* Due to a library upgrade, listings on category pages may be displayed out of order starting on Monday, 20th April. A migration script will be run to correct this, and will take hours to days depending on the size of the wiki (up to a week for English Wikipedia). [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T422544]

'''Weekly highlight'''
* After two years of development, [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror|{{int:codemirror-beta-feature-title}}]], also known as [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror 6]], is to be promoted out of beta on Tuesday, April 21. It brings better code and wikitext readability, reduction in typing errors, and other [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror|benefits]] to all users of the standard syntax highlighter. A huge thank you to volunteer [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/p/Bhsd/ Bhsd] who developed many of the new features, including [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror#Code folding|code folding]], [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror#Autocompletion|autocompletion]], and [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror#Linting|linting]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T259059]
* A major update to the Wikipedia app for iOS is now rolling out, redesigning the interface to align with Apple's latest "Liquid Glass" visual design. [https://apps.apple.com/us/app/wikipedia/id324715238 Download the latest version] and explore the update.
'''Updates for editors'''
* [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Experience/WE3.3.4 Reading lists|Reading lists]] is a feature which allows readers to save articles to a list for reading later. This feature is now in beta on Arabic, French, Indonesian, Vietnamese, and Chinese Wikipedias and by default for all new accounts on all Wikipedias.
* An experiment which explores extending [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Growth/Mobile page previews|Page Previews to mobile web]] will be launched in the week of April 20 on Arabic, English, French, Italian, Polish, and Vietnamese Wikipedias. Page Previews are pop-ups that display a thumbnail, lead paragraph, and a link to open the full article of a blue link, thereby improving content discovery. The feature is already available on desktop and in the apps. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/List of experiments in Product and Technology#Template|Read more about this experiment and others]].
* On several wikis, logged-in editors who haven't [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Email confirmation|confirmed their email addresses]] can now see a banner encouraging them to do so. Having the email address confirmed allows a user to restore access to the account if they lose it. [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Product Safety and Integrity/Account Security#Encouraging users to confirm their email addresses|Learn more]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T421366]
* [[File:Reload icon with two arrows.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] View all {{formatnum:15}} community-submitted {{PLURAL:15|task|tasks}} that were [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]]. For example, an issue where editing very large wiki pages in the 2017 wikitext editor caused slow loading, preview and scrolling lag, and performance issues when selecting, cutting, or pasting content, has now been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T184857]
'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* As part of the promotion of [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror]] from a beta feature, all users will use [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror]] instead of [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeEditor|CodeEditor]] for syntax highlighting when editing JavaScript, CSS, JSON, Vue and Lua content pages. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T419332]
* The <code>mirrors.wikimedia.org</code> service for Debian and Ubuntu users will sunset and stop working on May 15. The resources for the service will be replaced with new and better options. Some users may need to switch to a different server which should take about a minute. [https://lists.wikimedia.org/hyperkitty/list/wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org/thread/LJYRIS4WB66HIRCAO4GIDTXCMDVZRBMA/ You can read more]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T416707]
* The <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>image</nowiki></code></bdi> and <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>oldimage</nowiki></code></bdi> table will be removed from [[wikitech:Help:Wiki Replicas|wikireplicas]]. If your tools or queries access <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>image</nowiki></code></bdi> or <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>oldimage</nowiki></code></bdi> directly, please update them to use the <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>file</nowiki></code></bdi> and <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>filerevision</nowiki></code></bdi> table before 28 May. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T28741]
* Following the recent implementation of global API rate limits on unidentified traffic, the Wikimedia Foundation will continue efforts to ensure [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/MediaWiki Product Insights/Responsible Reuse|fair use of infrastructure]] by applying global limits to identified API traffic beginning the last week of April. These limits are intentionally set as high as possible to minimise impact on the community. Bots running in Toolforge/WMCS or with the bot user right on any wiki should not be affected for now. However, all developers are advised to follow updated best practices. For more information, see [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits|Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits]] and [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits/FAQ|Frequently Asked Questions]].
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Attribution API|Attribution API]] is now available as a [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia APIs/Stability policy|beta]]. The API fetches information for crediting Wikimedia articles and media files wherever they are used. Reference documentation is available through the REST Sandbox special page available on all Wikimedia wikis (such as the [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?api=attribution.v0-beta&title=Special%3ARestSandbox REST sandbox on English Wikipedia]). Share your feedback on the [[mw:Talk:Attribution API|project talk page]].
* There is no new MediaWiki version this week.

== [[Supreme Court of Finland convicts individuals and institutions involved in writing and publishing pamphlet for inciting hatred against gays and lesbians]] ==
Hello, Michael.C.Wright! Could you please remove the page protection from the article so that I can address the issues that you brought up? Thank you in advance! [[User:Justthefacts|Justthefacts]] ([[User talk:Justthefacts|talk]]) 23:23, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:It doesn't work that way... [[User:Lofi Gurl|Lofi Gurl]] ([[User talk:Lofi Gurl|talk]]) 00:07, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
: @[[User:Lofi Gurl|Lofi Gurl]] is correct. The page protection follows standard [[Wikinews:Archive conventions]] to preserve the article as a snapshot in time. Articles are not intended to be continuously updated and instead should be complete at publication. In this case, however, a full review was not conducted and significant issues were not resolved prior to publication, requiring post-publication correction.
: The publishing reviewer appears to be [[User talk:Gryllida#c-Gryllida-20260406231200-Michael.C.Wright-20260406125900|checked out]] of the project. I would still prefer to allow time for them to respond before taking further action. They tend to keep an eye on this page and may yet weigh in either here or at the [[Wikinews:Deletion requests#Supreme Court of Finland convicts individuals and institutions involved in writing and publishing pamphlet for inciting hatred against gays and lesbians|retraction request]].[[User:Michael.C.Wright|Michael.C.Wright]] (<sup>[[User_talk:Michael.C.Wright|Talk]]</sup>/<sub>[[User:Michael.C.Wright/reviewer|Reviewer]]</sub>) 01:11, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
== Thank You ==
Hi [[User:Michael.C.Wright|Michael.C.Wright]], and thank you so much for your work on the Wind down of Wikinews and cleaning up the DPL usage. I have been following the recent changes and it's truly praiseworthy. The sheer amount you haveve accomplished is remarkable.
From article reviewing to maintenance your contributions have been a constant presence since the day I joined English wikinews. I have watched you do great work here, consistently and quietly and I am not sure I ever got the chance to properly say it. So, thank you. Thank you for everything you have given to this project, and for continuing to carry out the final cleanups even as most editors have moved on.
On a personal note, thank you as well for your guidance and assistance. It meant more than you might know. It's been a genuine pleasure meeting you here, and I sincerely hope our paths cross again across one of the sister projects. -- It's [[User:Asked42|Asked42]] ([[User talk:Asked42|talk]]) 15:45, 16 April 2026 (UTC)
: Thank you for the very kind words and I too have had the pleasure of working along side you. I have heard from more than one admin and/or reviewer very good things about all the tools you developed for the project. It's a shame we didn't get an earlier start, as I do feel we could have turned the tide for the project with enough like-minded people putting in the elbow grease!
: I look forward to working with you in the future and I'm sure we will.[[User:Michael.C.Wright|Michael.C.Wright]] (<sup>[[User_talk:Michael.C.Wright|Talk]]</sup>/<sub>[[User:Michael.C.Wright/reviewer|Reviewer]]</sub>) 17:01, 16 April 2026 (UTC)
== One more? ==
Hello Michael C Wright, I hope you're doing well! 🙂 It's been two years since I made my last article for Wikinews, but in lieu of the project closure, I wanted to write one more on [[Pope Leo XIV visits four nations in Africa]], and was wondering if you could take a look! I truly understand if you don't want to or have the time, but if nothing else, I wanted to sincerely thank you for all the incredible work you've done here over the years. Since you became a reviewer [[Wikinews:Flagged revisions/Requests for permissions/Michael.C.Wright|almost two years ago]], your work has been seen and truly appreciated by many including myself. Thank you again. [[User:Johnson524|Johnson524]] ([[User talk:Johnson524|talk]]) 06:30, 20 April 2026 (UTC)

== I'm sorry for everything ==
Yo. I probably could have taken my user interactions more seriously during my time contributing to this project. For that I apologize. I know I've been a dick at various times on here and I'm sorry for that too. It looks like this is it -- I'm looking at Recent Changes and I'm seeing all sorts of "wind-down" activities, and I'm kinda choking up. It's really over. But, it's going to be okay. We wrote dozens and dozens of articles for this project during its waning years and for that I think we should be extremely proud. I'm not sure what my online life holds in store for me in the future, probably Wikipedia and YouTube and maybe Twitch again. Hope I'll see you around on other WMF projects!

== Published: [[Supreme Court of Finland makes crimes against humanity convictions in landmark ruling]] (April 6) ==
Hi, all, I am sending this message to all contributors to the article.
News is over a week old but I am publishing. The headline could be better but there is so much controversy about how to put it properly that I am content with the current revision.
Overall as a piece of feedback, it is necessary to be more factual and as much as possible insert facts rather than qualitative characterizations. I believe this has substantially improved in the last few days as the article has been revised. Thank you.
I have read the talk page and I believe the concerns there have been satisfactorily addressed in the recent edits and in the resulting current revision.
Copyright check passed flagging only the quote(s) included in the text.
'''I am recommending to add a sentence about expected consequence (fine, jail time) or if it is unknown then, when is this expected to be determined. If you could please make this change within 24 hours, then it could be sighted and be included in the report.'''
Thanks a lot.

== Tagging articles as abandoned ==
Hi. When tagging articles as abandoned, it should be done with a date parameter. This can most easily be achieved by using {{tl|subst:aband}}. It will automatically resolve the current date and start the two day countdown. Cheers, [[User:SVTCobra|'''SVT''']][[User Talk:SVTCobra|''Cobra'']] 14:56, 26 December 2023 (UTC)
:Much appreciated, thank you! [[User:BigKrow|BigKrow]] ([[User talk:BigKrow|talk]]) 16:09, 26 December 2023 (UTC)
:@[[User:SVTCobra|SVTCobra]] {{tl|abandoned|December 26, 2023|}}
i guess working now, it was a red link so i didn't think it would work. Thanks. [[User:BigKrow|BigKrow]] ([[User talk:BigKrow|talk]]) 16:16, 26 December 2023 (UTC)
== [[Turkey attacks northern Iraq, and Syria after 12 people killed]] ==
Yes, tagging with author request is good enough unless other editors have worked on it. It was an interesting event which I had not seen at the top of my news headlines, so I was a bit disappointed you chose this route. [[User:SVTCobra|'''SVT''']][[User Talk:SVTCobra|''Cobra'']] 00:43, 27 December 2023 (UTC)
:I have a bad habit of deleting I'm sorry.... [[User:BigKrow|BigKrow]] ([[User talk:BigKrow|talk]]) 00:57, 27 December 2023 (UTC)
== Tagging for speedy deletion ==
Hi BigKrow, a couple of comments. First, there is no need to tag abandoned articles for speedy, even if it's been a couple of days since the countdown has run out. They already appear in a tracking category for Sysops to see as needing deletion. Second, in other cases where {{tl|speedy}} or {{tl|delete}} (they are the same, by the way) is appropriate, please give a valid reason. The list of valid reasons can be seen [[:Template:Delete|here]]. Thanks, [[User:SVTCobra|'''SVT''']][[User Talk:SVTCobra|''Cobra'']] 22:07, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
:Related is [[NIETians shine at Smart India Hackthon 2023]] which you sought to have speedied because the user was blocked.

I reviewed this, but it did not pass. My review comments are firm in their wording, but I was not intending to insult you. I write here to make sure you don't take it the wrong way.<br>You start a lot of articles but very few are fully developed and very few get published. The topics of your articles are so varied (from global news to hyper-local news), it almost seems like you pick them at random. While the aim of Wikinews is to have broad coverage of news from all over the world, this may not be the best way to approach article creation. In my experience, the best articles are written when the author really cares about the subject and wants to tell that story. If you are not a soccer fan, you may not be the best person to write about Lazio v Roma.<br>So, I hope you can think on this. What really peaks your interest when you read the news? Is it politics? Science? Crime? Economics? Find something you care about and really get into it. Learn about it. Get sources; not just the latest but maybe something for background.

== Wikinewsie category ==
I created your wikinewsie category for you. I hope you don't mind. It's a hidden category, not visible in article space.
[[:Category:BigKrow_(Wikinewsie)]]
Feel free to edit the verbiage on the category however you like. Check out what other users have on theirs for inspiration. Just be sure to preserve the <nowiki>__HIDDENCAT__</nowiki> line.
You can link to it from your user page and/or signature so others can see a list of articles you've gotten published. You can also link to it from off-wiki, if you have a blog, or social media page, etc for your journalism work.
I typically add the category to articles once they're published, not before. I already added it to [[Islamic_State_Khorasan_Province_responsible_for_more_than_60_people_killed_including_children_and_hundreds_injured_at_Krasnogorsk,_Russia_concert_at_Crocus_City_Hall|Islamic_State_Khorasan_Province_responsible_for_more_than_60_people_killed_including_children_and_hundreds_injured_at_Krasnogorsk,_Russia_concert_at_Crocus_City_Hall]].

== [[:United States gives Ukraine permission to strike inside Russian territory near Kharkiv]] ==
A couple of issues:
* The copyvio detector gives a 53% match. Mostly it is due to extensive quotes. I would suggest breaking up Macron's comment, which currently runs to six lines. It's simply too long to read in one breath.
* The second sentence in the second paragraph doesn't actually say anything. I suggest either removing it or expanding it.
* Some minor grammar such as the last sentence, which is missing the word "policy" before the quote marks?
* The article needs rrnaming. I suggest: "Ukraine allowed to strike Russian territory near Kharkiv with US weapons".
Otherwise looks good to go. I thought I'd point these things out here rather than putting on a negative review, so you can quickly fix them. ['''[[:User:Cromium|<sub>24</sub>Cr]]''']['''[[:User talk:Cromium|talk]]'''] 09:04, 31 May 2024 (UTC)
== Staleness ==
I just thought I'd share my thoughts on this because you seem to be very attentive to this issue. Our normal route is to wait until four days have passed without edits (or talkpage discussion) and then tag with subst:aband. Then if there are no edits for another two days, it would be deleted. I have been thinking of a proposal to reduce this from 4+2 days to 3+1 days or even 2+1 days to encourage more publishing, especially given last year we increased the window of freshness from 2-3 days to 5-7 days and reduced the minimum length to 100 words. What would you think of a shrinking of the subst:aband route? ['''[[:User:Cromium|<sub>24</sub>Cr]]''']['''[[:User talk:Cromium|talk]]'''] 19:28, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

== How to follow newer drafts ==
Hi BigKrow [[File:Smiley.svg|16px]]
Some people read the "recent changes" page constantly. Some others refresh "Newsroom" a few times a day.
There is an easier alternative to follow latest drafts: visit [[Wikinews:Water cooler/assistance]], either manually once a week, or click "Subscribe" button at right top. It will Notify or Email (depending on configuration) when a new topic is added to the page. Then you can see what to edit and what are main requests for help with it, without spending too much time on the site.
Editing other drafts -- and answering questions at the water cooler linked above, which is the less time consuming version -- may help reviewers spend less time on these other drafts, and review your articles faster.
Hope it helps. Please let me know if you have any questions. [[User:Gryllida|Gryllida]] ([[User talk:Gryllida|talk]]) 22:47, 25 September 2024 (UTC)

Hi @[[User:BigKrow|BigKrow]] :-)
I am asking for some technical information when you have a moment:
# You wrote the page [[Improvised explosive device attack at the Santa Maria Courthouse in Santa Maria, California injures five people, one person arrested]]
# When you open [[Talk:Improvised explosive device attack at the Santa Maria Courthouse in Santa Maria, California injures five people, one person arrested]]. At right top. Does it say 'Subscribe' or 'Ubsubscribe'? I.e., are you already automatically subscribed to receive notifications of new messages on the talk page or not?
There is no urgency in my new message on the talk page - just want to check how the wiki is configured on your account (I will ask several other contributors also) as this may affect communication with authors.

::Well, the trick is: don't over complicate it. Think of it like this: Most ''big'' new stories have '''all kinds of stuff''' happening around them. So, we are a bit stale on the actual event itself. But: maybe there has been some courtroom stuff surrounding the guy, and you could use 70% of what is currently in ''this'' article, to build that article. See? That is the general spirit of gatwicking. This didn't make it, but there are (maybe) articles where his Mom said something or his priest said something, or the police searched his home or a storage unit. Then (considering 'inverted pyramid' style), you can put almost all of this near the bottom of THAT article. That is a 48-second intro to gatwicking.--[[User:Bddpaux|Bddpaux]] ([[User talk:Bddpaux|talk]]) 16:26, 4 October 2024 (UTC)

::::Well, yes. However: There is time for you to grab the text of this article, throw it into a sandbox -- then use that to build a ''fresh'' article.

Hey!! Hope you're having a good Sunday. I tried to work with the coffee article, freshen it up, but the specifics are just getting too fluid and I may have just dug the article's grave deeper honestly. I might be able to splice the info into some Wikipedia article down the line if all else fails. I'm just not experienced enough to write something this "timely" at this point unfortunately.

== In the beginning ==
For starters: Please don't take this harshly -- as it isn't meant to be such. Historically, when I start articles, they are often pell-mell slap-dash bits of who-knows-what... but I often work fairly quickly to get them orderly (to some degree). I've noticed a few things (in recent weeks). You tend to start articles with a few sentences and then just move on. Are you working some type of plan there? Also (and this is just a personal chuckle --- you ''are not'' remotely the worst of them) -- it makes me laugh when people write 39 words in an article and '''I see <u>5 sources at the bottom of the page</u>'''. What's up with that? We're all just volunteers here -- so: just asking.--[[User:Bddpaux|Bddpaux]] ([[User talk:Bddpaux|talk]]) 18:17, 27 December 2024 (UTC)

== Re: revitalising Wikinews ==
Hi, I'm reaching out to you as you indicated support for revitalising Wikinews. Here are a few ways to help out, in no particular order:
# write new articles by [[WN:SG|style guide]] and [[WN:CG|content guide]]
# find news which happened today and share it on [[WN:IRC|live chat]] or [[WN:REQ|a news tip page]]
# read drafts in [[Newsroom]], especially those submitted for review, and edit them to make them more comprehensive or more current
# read drafts in [[Newsroom]], especially those that failed review recently, and address reviewer's comments quickly and re-submit for review
# chat with new authors (of articles in Newsroom) and help them understand the key concepts
# subscribe at [[Wikinews:Water cooler]] (there are 5 subforums, open each and click 'Subscribe' link at top - then keep a close eye on your Echo notifications) to help newcomers and help with editing articles when someone requests assistance
# chat on [[WN:IRC|live chat]] and help newcomers and reviewers with their review process
# help with software development for authoring or reviewing articles, perhaps for the mobile platforms
# chat with other contributors on audio or video chat
# present notes about how Wikinews works at various conferences via audio and video communucations [as we don't have funds for travel at present] this can be linux, programming, journalistical, or wikimedia themed conferences
# figure out how to get someone to do any of the above through a grant, sometimes google summer of code
# find high school and university educators who would like to teach their class journalism by asking them to write articles for Wikinews (was done with [[Category:UoW|University of Wollongong]] in the past, and we have extension installed for marking students)
# collaborate with [[User:Pharos|Pharos]] on getting more news coverage of the New York City and adjacent areas
# proofread, or read, Wikinews articles out loud for Audio Wikinews
# make English Wikinews accounts on various social media like twitter, facebook, blue sky app (sp?), others [in consultation with someone on-wiki first] ensuring you're posting new news articles there with appropriate tags, moderate comments, and setup multiple moderators if possible and document which contributor is in charge of which social network account for Wikinews and how articles are being posted there
Please let me know which of these points you're most comfortable with, and/or would like to learn.
'''''Which points would you like to contribute?''''' Please name up to 3-5 points, if you like. Or suggest your own. :-)
I'm happy to connect with you and guide you in any of the above areas.

== It's not the end of the world if something goes stale ==
They said something like "don't get married to your article" when I first started here. I like having lots of little projects I can chip away at throughout the day. That's how I like to work. Also, if I bring the stories to the site, alot of the time other users pick them up and run with them. Pretty sure I had very little to do with the last few stories that were published. I just brought the links, I guess. I literally woke up this morning and was delighted to see that two more stories got published. Sometimes starting a stub article is what prompts someone to take a story and run with it. I'm just planting seeds here. This is what revitalizing Wikinews looks like to me. Like I said before, anything that goes stale or gets abandoned can probably get used for Wikipedia, Simple Wikipedia or Wikiquote.

== About noise from other users ==
Hello BigKrow,
When someone is being a fool, unlike Wikipedia, at Wikinews there is no response needed. There is no 'assume good faith' policy. Instead, there is 'never assume'. If someone did one stupid edit, it is seen as stupid, there is no 'maybe this was a good faith edit by a confused newcomer' and a polite conversation. This isn't necessary.
It is also not necessary to approach the user and ask 'hey why did you do this?'.
The motivation for this is that waste of time is not constructive to a journalistic site. Distractions are ignored as much as possible.
Think this may spare you some time and effort. Seeing that there are a few more new users recently and alas not all of them are constructive.
I will of course continue to actively clean up and try to reduce vandalism as much as possible. (This process is necessary at either wiki.)
Hope it helps. [[User:Gryllida|Gryllida]] ([[User talk:Gryllida|talk]]) 00:57, 23 April 2025 (UTC)

== Hi, how do you read me ==
Hi, I included you at your request into the "pingrr" list recently. You'd've received a few dozens of "RR" echo notifications in the last two weeks. Did they arrive? Could you please tell me what is preventing you from responding to them?
Revision requests are an essential part of the collaboration process, and your participation is vitally important. Please provide me with the feedback, it would help me a lot with making this process more efficient and easier for you to use.
Thanks. [[User:Gryllida|Gryllida]] ([[User talk:Gryllida|talk]]) 05:25, 18 May 2025 (UTC)

== Paste ==
Hi BigKrow
In the article there was a published paste from source,
https://en.wikinews.org/w/index.php?title=Emergency_landing_by_Alaska_Airlines_at_Portland_International_Airport&diff=prev&oldid=4858559
> Flight and maintenance crews determined it was safe to continue the approximately two-hour flight to Portland.
This is '''terrible''' as it is illegal, and other users who will edit the page '''will not even know'''.
May I suggest to
1. Paste in seoarate paragraph only, not add to existing paragraph
2. Mark pasted content:
* in visual editor: mark it in italic
* in source editor: add a ">" before, or enclose in single quotation marks twice to indicate it was pasted, or write "Pasted: " before it
''like this''
Importantly, I believe '''saving''' a pasted text which is not freely licensed is '''illegal (copyright violation)''', and may result in legal action being taken against you, by the original author. This includes copyrighted text in page history, as the prior revisions are also under the same licence as Wikinews itself. So I would suggest '''leaving the article open in edit mode until you have written it in your own words and deleted the quote.'''
So I would envision you coming up with a content like this:
-----
Pasted: Flight and maintenance crews determined it was safe to continue the approximately two-hour flight to Portland.
The airline staff assessed the situation during takeoff, and considered it safe to proceed with the two-hour flight.
-----
(Then the "pasted" paragraph can be deleted, and the edit can be saved.)
I wrote this page for news draft writing, which is saved to localStorage in your browser. Alas, it does not allow you to save on-wiki yet; you would need to transfer the content over manually.
https://gryllida.neocities.org/news/writer/v2/
The load and save buttons load from localStorage and save to localStorage, they do not save to wiki.
Please let me know if this is helpful.

Hi, i am running a software to make live chat easier to use. It requires installation of QuasselDroid on Android, Quassel Client on Windows or Mac or Linux, and I don't know what on iOS (let me know if this is your main platform). The software would connect you to the official IRC channel for Wikinews and stay connected including all chat history, including when you closed the app. I am achieving this by hosting it on my Quassel Core on my server. If you are interested in trying this option, please install the Quassel Client software, and after this is done (not before), ensure you have a working email in your [[Special:Preferences]] so i can email you login credentials, and specify your desired IRC nickname.

I am trying to understand why so many articles are deleted as stale. I made the page [[Wikinews:ReviewLog]] and looked at one. The issue was you revised article and I didn't see the notification about that. (I was busy moving house. Logging in to wiki was not suitable, but I would still check my messages on phone.) Apparently, one way to possibly solve this is to help you chase me if I went away. Can you please provide me your Telegram or Discord or Linphone or Matrix username, either here on wiki or via [[Special:EmailUser]], I would like to connect.

How about helping with rewriting articles and helping them be published, not marking them as stale?

I shouldnt have called the project a joke. I was frusterated. That was like my eighth or ninth article in a row that went stale because nobody wanted to review it, or wasnt able to. I'm not writing anymore. I get that the process isn't perfect, but this is fucking ridiculous. The fact that the project has barely gotten anything published in light of that WMF discussion just shows me that this is a lost cause.

: This is a reply to no one in particular, just to the topic in general.
: The WMF has announced no decision and taken no action yet. The state of en.WN is the result of what contributors here have chosen to do or not to do. We all have the choice to continue volunteering our time as we see fit, or to walk away. The project is impacted either way.
: For the first time since June we had three reviewers who [[Wikinews:2025 Boost publication rate/November pub-rate report|published articles in November]]. We also published more articles than our monthly average in 2024 and had fewer days with 0 articles published than our monthly average in 2024. This reverses a five month down-trend, by just adding one more publishing reviewer.
: I believe if we could show to the WMF that with more active reviewers performing ''full and complete'' reviews, we can generate more interest in the project and begin the slow process of improving our policies and guidelines (which I believe are demonstrably counter-productive).[[User:Michael.C.Wright|Michael.C.Wright]] (<sup>[[User_talk:Michael.C.Wright|Talk]]</sup>/<sub>[[User:Michael.C.Wright/reviewer|Reviewer]]</sub>) 14:17, 6 December 2025 (UTC)

I already changed this title once previously (because "debited" is only a synonym of "charged" when talking about money or accounting, not when talking about crime), so I'm not going to change it again right now, but the current title is unsatisfactory. --[[User:Metropolitan90|Metropolitan90]] ([[User talk:Metropolitan90|talk]]) 09:44, 20 December 2025 (UTC)

Hello,
This message is being sent to you as you contributed to the article at some point.
For your reference, as a part of my review, the article required several minor edits. Some of these changes may be related to your edits, while others may be related to edits made by other users. The list of minor edits is provided below.
1) The more recent/current information about health and return to work of firefighters was brought upwards to second paragraph [[WN:IP|inverted pyramid]]
2) That sentence was edited for past tense.
3) Fresh source was listed at top of the list.
4) Request was made off-wiki to add a verb to the headline. This worked amazingly well.
5) A paragraph was reworded as it was too close to plagiarising a source.
6) Acronyms were removed as they were not used throughout the rest of the page.
Please keep these in mind when writing or revising articles in future. And, thank you for creating and revising this article, it is interesting that there was additional explosion; I hope there will be an update when the cause will be identified.

1) The article presents a nearly stale event on Dec19 which was written up on Dec21 and submitted for review on Dec24. <mark>Please do not delay submitting for review. Please submit for review as early as possible. THIS IS IMPORTANT.</mark>
2) The article contains the following paragraph:
''Officers responded to a 911 call around 10:15 p.m. after a man reported that his girlfriend's ex-boyfriend was attempting to break into her home and might have a gun ��. When officers arrived and located Davis at the side of the house, he immediately pulled out a handgun and opened fire at close range, striking two officers and the 911 caller ��. One officer was shot multiple times in the upper body but was protected by his ballistic vest and sustained non-life-threatening injuries, while the second officer was shot in the upper body and required surgery, leaving him in critical but stable condition ��.Davis fled the scene and was found minutes later at the intersection of Arnett Boulevard and Thurston Road �. When ordered to stop by a third officer, Davis opened fire again, shooting the officer once in the upper body ��. That officer and others returned fire, striking Davis multiple times and killing him at the scene ��.Casualties and ConditionsAll three wounded officers were treated at Strong Memorial Hospital and received life-saving treatment �. The 911 caller, who had exchanged gunfire with Davis and was shot multiple times, was also hospitalized in serious but non-life-threatening condition ��. Police Chief David Smith noted that each of the injured officers had fewer than 10 years on the force �.Background on the SuspectDavis had an active arrest warrant for aggravated harassment from an October incident and had previously threatened the victim in July, telling her he would "put a bullet in her head," which led to her obtaining an order of protection �. He was convicted of third-degree burglary in 2005 and was illegally possessing a .40-caliber Glock handgun at the time of the shooting, which he fired until it was empty �. Rochester Mayor Malik Evans called the incident "people's Exhibit A on what domestic violence can do," noting that the police department receives more than 6,000 domestic violence calls annually ��.''
This is garbage because:
a) It is too long
b) it has " ��" in between sentences
c) It has incomplete sentences like "Background on the SuspectDavis had an active arrest warrant ..."
<mark>Please do not submit crappy paragraphs for review. This delays publishing. The only thing a reviewer can do is delete the whole paragraph, or clean it up; which is time consuming and disrespectful because you could have done the same too before submitting article for review and because it is not publishable in current form. PLEASE ONLY SUBMIT COMPLETED ARTICLES. THIS IS CRITICALLY IMPORTANT.</mark>

Requested major revision.
1) Minor edit: Please do not place two review templates on one page. This messes up the publish process. Please remove one of the two review templates from the page now.
2) Major edit: New York times source is paywalled. Please remote it now, and remove any information from it or find a replacement source for it. -- [[User:Gryllida|Gryllida]] 20:35, 25 December 2025 (UTC)
== Published: [[Kennedy Center gets renamed to Trump-Kennedy Center]] (December 26) ==
The article has been published. Congratulations.
The following edits were made by reviewer:
1) Article body written in past tense
2) External links moved to a section called 'External links'
3) Rearranged to specify the date in the first paragraph, see [[WN:IP|inverted pyramid]]
Please keep these comments in mind when writing or editing articles in the future.
The following notes were left by reviewer:
1) The previous review raised concern about bias in words such as 'many' in 'many commenters' or 'illegal in many ways', it was disappointing that this was not addressed at time of submitting for review.
2) Article was written on time and submitted on Dec22, which is not excellent for a Dec19 event, but is good. It is on the edge of being stale now, as is is already Dec25, and I am making the decision to pass.
3) Please write article about what happened, whether the rename was approved by authorities. Has there been any recent updates?
Please consider revising more thoroughly before re-submitting for review; writing up a story and submitting for review sooner and closer to the event date; and also consider writing a article about updates, if any updates were available, immediately after these updates occurred.
Many thanks. -- [[User:Gryllida|Gryllida]] 20:47, 25 December 2025 (UTC)

== Revision requested: [[United States capture Venezuelan president, Nicolás Maduro]] (January 4) ==
Rewrite is requested:
1) Please specify date, and time zone, in first paragraph.
2) New York Times source is paywalled. Please remove it along with any information from it. If you wish to keep that information, please find another source for it.
3) Some sentences may require attribution. I was shocked to read the phrase " conspiracy to commit narco‐terrorism and conspiracy to import cocaine". Is it official accusation? The 'narco-terrorism' is a new word for me. If it was official accusation, then maybe it could be either wikilinked or taken into quotation marks.
4) Article body needs to be written in past tense.
5) Phrases like 'where Maduro was suspected to be located' and 'seizure of several oil tankers' are plagiarised and need to be written in your own words, if Earwig is to be believed.
6) Please double-check the chronology of writing corresponds to [[WN:IP|inverted pyramid]] to reduce revision required by reviewer at time of approval.
Please revise and re-submit for review NOW while the news is still fresh.
I will try to be available for next 12 hours to re-review.

Change of workflow is requested! Please remember these following points in your future submissions:
1. please proofread before you submit for review
1a. do not submit article for review if it is with grammar errors and structure issues
1b. only submit for review when you think the article is ready to publish, '''not when it is incomplete'''
2. if you require someone to complete article for you, press the 'request assistance' button, not the 'submit for review' button
rewrite is requested:
1. phrases were copied from source please rewrite in your own words
{{SIH
| text1 = while searching for a domestic violence suspect who had fled from police
| issue1 = c
| text2 = the officer will undergo mandatory drug and alcohol testing as part of the bureau’s
| issue2 = c
| text3 = searching for a domestic violence suspect
| issue3 = c
}}
2. please separate the article into separate paragraphs see [[WN:IP]]
3. specify country in first paragraph
4. remove repeating sentences for example "A late-night crash happened with a Pittsburgh police officer." and "A Pittsburgh police officer was injured in a single‑vehicle crash" are similar in meaning there is no need to say the same thing twice. similarly "crash '''occurred shortly after midnight'''. A Pittsburgh police officer was injured in a single‑vehicle crash '''just after midnight''' " there is no need to say it twice. please check it yourself by proofreading the text and ensuring it is not duplicated.
5. remove words like "and was taken to a hospital in stable condition '''What happened'''The crash occurred early Monday morning (around midnight) at the intersection of Arlington Avenue and Josephine Street"

== streak proposal ==
Hi, I am proposing to setup [[:w:streak]] goals over a 12 week period: for example,
* "write one story each two weeks, and [[:wikt:babysit|babysit]] it until it is published"
This could be either authoring a completely new article or this could be taking over someone else's article and doing focused editing on it with active collaboration with others until it is published. It is like a [[:wikt:day shift|day shift]] as you are expected to remain available '[[:wikt:on call|on call]]' to address concerns from another user or reviewer.
The aim of this is to build a habit of participation with [[:wikt:outburst|outburst]]s of eyeballing the page to collaborate with others -- but not every day, to have breaks and reduce [[:wikt:burnout|burnout]]. Could you please check out at '''[[Wikinews:Water_cooler/proposals#Streak_themed_competition_proposal|this section]]''' and let me know what you think?

:Background An 18-year-old Roblox speedrunner named Quinten Delaere (also known online as kannotlogin) was competing in an official Guinness World Records-linked speedrun event on the Roblox game Ultimate Easy Obby. The challenge was to finish the obstacle course as fast as possible. �
:Wikinews
:🚩 Fraudulent Records Appeared After hours of practice, Quinten set a fast time of 5:48.96 — which he believed should be the record. However, just before the event deadline, three other accounts suddenly posted times about six seconds faster, an improvement that was mathematically impossible under normal gameplay for a run that already had “optimized every corner and jump.” �
:Wikinews
:🔍 Investigation and Evidence Rather than accepting defeat, Quinten launched a detailed investigation into the suspicious runs. His findings included: �
:Wikinews
:Impossible badge timestamps: Some accounts unlocked badges out of logical order, suggesting teleports or hacks. �
:Wikinews
:Missing game-verified indicators: Legitimate runs automatically award a special Guinness World Record gold medal accessory — the suspicious accounts lacked it. �
:Wikinews
:Expired/inconsistent inventory items: Some accounts held items that shouldn’t have been attainable then, hinting at script-enabled unlocks. �
:Wikinews
:Video and frame-by-frame analysis: Quinten calculated theoretical minimum times based on physics and showed the suspect runs were too fast to be real. �
:Wikinews
:🏆 Guinness Reinstates the True Record Armed with this technical evidence, Quinten submitted a report to Guinness World Records. After reviewing it internally, Guinness disqualified the fraudulent times and officially validated Quinten’s run as the true world record, awarding him the certificate. �
:Wikinews
:🎮 Significance This story highlights how a dedicated player used data analysis and meticulous investigation to hold others accountable for cheating and help a major record-keeping organization correct its listings — showing that even in gaming communities, evidence and integrity can make a difference. �
:Wikinews
:If you want more details on how Quinten proved the fraud mathematically or what skills he used, I can break that down too! [[User:BigKrow|BigKrow]] ([[User talk:BigKrow|talk]]) 13:14, 13 January 2026 (UTC)

== Formal Declaration: COI and Original Reporting ==
Per the request of administrator @[[User:Michael.C.Wright|Michael.C.Wright]], I am making this formal declaration to comply with Wikinews policies:
1. '''Conflict of Interest (COI):''' I, Quinten Delaere (User:Kannotlogin), declare that I am the subject of this article. I am the person who performed the speedrun and the forensic investigation described in the text.
2. '''Original Reporting (WN:OR):''' This article is submitted under the [[Wikinews:Original reporting|Original Reporting policy]]. I have direct access to the raw data, evidence, and correspondence with Guinness World Records. I am available to verify any details required by reviewers.
I have also added the {{tl|Original reporting}} template to the main article page. I will refrain from editing the article directly where possible to respect neutrality, and I will await reviewer guidance. [[User:Kannotlogin|Kannotlogin]] ([[User talk:Kannotlogin|talk]]) 14:38, 13 January 2026 (UTC)
: Thank you. Because you have identified yourself as a real person, we'll need to verify that. The easiest and fastest way is for you to send an email to Scoop@wn-reporters.org from an email address in your public domain quintendelaere.be identifying that Kannotlogin is Quinten Delaere.
: OR gets a bit of a break on [[WN:Freshness]] but not [[WN:Source]]. Any statement of fact in the article still needs to be verified. Since you are writing about yourself, we'll need to be incredibly transparent, accurate, and neutral in the article to avoid bias or the appearance of self-promotion.
: To that end, I strongly recommend you strip motive entirely from the article and report only verifiable actions and claims. For example, I would rewrite the entire third paragraph to something like the following: ''Delaere conducted a digital forensic analysis and compiled a report alleging that the new records were fraudulent. The report cited three technical points.''
: @[[User:Gryllida|Gryllida]], please weigh in here if you disagree or have other advice.[[User:Michael.C.Wright|Michael.C.Wright]] (<sup>[[User_talk:Michael.C.Wright|Talk]]</sup>/<sub>[[User:Michael.C.Wright/reviewer|Reviewer]]</sub>) 18:02, 13 January 2026 (UTC)
::Thank you for the guidance regarding the Original Reporting policy.
::*I have sent the verification email to ''Scoop@wn-reporters.org'' from my domain address (@quintendelaere.be).
::*I have rewritten some parts of the article to strip all "motive" and strictly report verifiable actions and claims, using the exact phrasing you suggested for the third paragraph.
::*Regarding verification: I cross-referenced the facts in the article with the international sources listed (Kotaku [EN], PCGamesN [EN], JeuxVideo [FR], Meristation [ES], KW [NL]). While some additional sources were removed during previous suggestions by another user, the remaining sources should cover all the technical claims made in the text.

I removed two unsupported statements not related to the [[WN:5Ws]] that may have been supported by it. See the edit history for details.
Without a source supporting that date, the article is stale, per [[WN:Freshness]]. Three of the articles that assert Delaere is finally the official winner were dated [published] ''before'' January 7, implying the Jan. 7 date is incorrect.

| comments = Particular care was taken during review to manage the inherent conflict of interest by distinguishing Delaere’s own assertions—all of which are supported by listed sources—from media reporting and from Guinness World Records’ documented actions. While the article synthesizes multiple sources, it introduces no facts beyond those reported by independent publications and aims to present them in a neutral, verifiable manner, with careful consideration for [[WN:COI]].
Upon reconsideration, I am undoing my earlier OR assessment; authorship alone does not constitute original research, and the article does not introduce facts beyond what independent sources report.
Despite being written by the subject, the article is not promotional because it reports only independently published information, clearly attributes assertions, and avoids advocacy or exaggeration, making it a COI-sensitive but policy-compliant synthesis article.

== Claude a.i results on kannotlogin ==
You're right to be skeptical. Looking at the search results more critically, the information does have a promotional quality to it - it reads like polished PR content rather than independent coverage. The sources appear to be press releases or promotional articles rather than investigative journalism.

== My 2 cents ==
Yes, the Chinese edition of Wikinews also received a machine-translated submission, which was published after being manually revised locally. That approach was not entirely appropriate; however, when discussing whether there are issues with the article, it would be better to focus on the content of the article itself.
Personally, I don't really believe that “one must not write one’s own article” is an absolute principle. As I mentioned, if there is nothing wrong with the article itself, then at most an appropriate disclosure of interest should be required.
I am not familiar with the subject matter of the article or the relevant community context, but at present it appears to have sources and substantive content, and its news value seems acceptable (albeit niche). Of course, any improper conduct on the part of the author should be addressed separately.
It probably shouldn’t be subject to speedy deletion. Awaiting the outcome of the discussion… (after all, there are many participants in this discussion, so zhwn should be able to refer to it as well) ~ [[User:Sheminghui.WU|Sheminghui.WU]] ([[User talk:Sheminghui.WU|talk]]) 10:17, 2 March 2026 (UTC)
:Well, the layout and writing style of this article are indeed a bit strange... but perhaps this is something worth reporting in this field? If properly edited, this original material should be useful maybe. ~ [[User:Sheminghui.WU|Sheminghui.WU]] ([[User talk:Sheminghui.WU|talk]]) 10:21, 2 March 2026 (UTC)
== Pre-archive note update ==
Before archiving this article, I updated the note at the top. Given the [[Wikinews:Water cooler/miscellaneous#Board of Trustees Approves Closure of Wikinews|pending closure of the project]], there will not be further opportunity for discussion.
As the reviewer, I have not sighted this change and am seeking brief community confirmation that the note and the article’s final status are acceptable, including that it was written by its subject.
@[[User:Heavy Water|Heavy Water]], @[[User:Bddpaux|Bddpaux]], @[[User:Acagastya|Acagastya]] — please weigh in or sight the change. Once confirmed, I will proceed with archiving.[[User:Michael.C.Wright|Michael.C.Wright]] (<sup>[[User_talk:Michael.C.Wright|Talk]]</sup>/<sub>[[User:Michael.C.Wright/reviewer|Reviewer]]</sub>) 08:52, 3 April 2026 (UTC)

:::: The short version is Quinten Delaere is the real name of the user Kannotlogin. They authored an article (this one) for which they are the subject, and provided a [[#Formal Declaration: COI and Original Reporting|formal COI]] as [[#c-Gryllida-20260110205200-Information_and_rewrite_request|requested by Gryllida]].
:::: I reviewed and published the article, determining that the article does not state anything that is not already stated in the listed source articles (i.e., nothing original—all statements are supported by independent sources).
:::: The long version is contained in a number of discussions, most of which are listed and linked [[#c-Michael.C.Wright-20260207160500-Related_discussions|here (above)]].
:::: After you've gotten up to speed with all of that, you are very much welcome to weigh in [[Wikinews:Deletion requests#January 22, 2026|on this discussion regarding the proposed deletion of this article]].
:::: As the publishing reviewer, I've done all I plan to do regarding documenting everything. If you, as an independent reviewer, think it should be retracted, I will not oppose that. If you think it can be kept as is, with the note, which is unsighted at the top of the article, then feel free to sight the note.
:::: If you take either action, I'll then close the request at [[WN:DR]] accordingly and we can move on.[[User:Michael.C.Wright|Michael.C.Wright]] (<sup>[[User_talk:Michael.C.Wright|Talk]]</sup>/<sub>[[User:Michael.C.Wright/reviewer|Reviewer]]</sub>) 01:15, 16 April 2026 (UTC)

[[File:Wikinews-logo.png|right|220px|thumb|Logo of Wikinews, adopted by the community through a [[meta:Wikinews logo contest voting|logo contest]] held in January–February 2005. It replaced the [[:File:Wikinews logo.png|beta version]] logo.]]
The Wikinews project is scheduled to be closed on May 4, 2026, after the [[meta:Wikimedia Foundation/Board of Trustees|Board of Trustees]] of the {{W|Wikimedia Foundation}} announced on March 30 its final decision to close all language editions of the project.
Wikinews was a sister project of other Wikimedia initiatives, including {{w|Wikipedia}}, {{w|Wiktionary}}, and {{w|Wikimedia Commons}}, which support the dissemination of free knowledge and media. The future of Wikinews was raised for consideration in late 2025, with a Wikimedia Foundation task force recommending the project's closure, followed by [[meta:Public consultation about Wikinews|a period of public consultation about Wikinews]]. After this process, the Board announced in March 2026 that the 31 active editions of Wikinews would be placed in read-only mode indefinitely.
In the announcement message, trustee [[meta:User:Victoria|Victoria Doronina]] said, "We thank all contributors who have participated in Wikinews over the years and helped build a unique experiment in collaborative journalism within the Wikimedia movement, and we understand that some of them might be disappointed by this decision. To our regret, the project wasn’t able to fulfil its promise, and many of its functions were eclipsed by the notable news coverage in Wikipedias."
Wikinews launched in November 2004. It was first proposed by an anonymous contributor in January 2003<!-- https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Wikinews/Archive&diff=prev&oldid=4306 --> and faced a community vote that ended 151 yea and 59 nay, leading to the first demo going live in October 2004.<!-- https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikinews/Vote --> The English-language Wikinews was formally created December 2 of that year, with German following one day later.<!--Context of blogs, citizen journalism (e.g. Occupy, Indymedia, blogger's bill of rights)-->
The project's early development followed a series of community discussions and milestones in late 2004 and early 2005. A [[meta:Wikinews/License straw poll|non-binding straw poll]] on content licensing began on October 26, 2004, alongside discussions on the project's scope and policies. The initial demo site, hosted at ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20041117013229/http://demo.wikinews.org/wiki/Main_Page demo.wikinews.org]'', was later moved to the English Wikinews domain on December 2, 2004.
Following the launch of the English and German editions in December 2004, additional language editions were created in early 2005, including Dutch, French, Swedish, Spanish, Bulgarian, Polish, Romanian, and Portuguese. The project also adopted a [[:m:Wikinews/Logo|logo]] in February 2005 through a [[:m:Wikinews logo contest voting|community voting process]].

It is founded on the belief that we can, together, build a great and unique resource which will enrich the media landscape… We seek to promote the idea of the citizen journalist, because we believe that everyone can make a useful contribution to painting the big picture of what is happening in the world around us.”
|source=[[:m:Wikinews manifesto|Wikinews manifesto]], 2004

While many Wikinews articles were synthesized from other news sources, the project also posted original reporting, including interviews with people such as [[Shimon Peres discusses the future of Israel|Shimon Peres]], then-president of Israel; U.S. Senator [[Sam Brownback on running for President, gay rights, the Middle East and religion|Sam Brownback]]; journalist [[Gay Talese on the state of journalism, Iraq and his life|Gay Talese]]; and voice actor [[Billy West, voice of Ren and Stimpy, Futurama, on the rough start that shaped his life|Billy West]].
Wikinews received some criticism over the years for not achieving success comparable to its sister project Wikipedia. In a 2010 interview, researcher {{w|Andrew Lih}} commented, "[I]t’s not clear that the wiki process really gears itself towards deadlines and group narrative writing. These are two things that are very hard to do in a wiki context. So it’s kind of against the nature of the wiki community and the wiki culture that has been produced already. And I think that is providing some kind of a tension in terms of getting Wikipedians to write for an organization such as Wikinews." In 2013, a link to Wikinews was removed from the "In the News" section of the front page of Wikipedia, and links to Wikinews were also removed from the Current Events portal in that year.
At the time that the closure of Wikinews was announced, there were reportedly only about 700 active editors among all 31 language editions combined.

Latest '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News|tech news]]''' from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2026/10|Translations]] are available.
'''Weekly highlight'''
* Wikipedia 25 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikipedia 25/Easter egg experiments|Birthday mode]] is now live on Betawi, Breton, Chinese, Czech, Dutch, English, French, Gorontalo, Indonesian, Italian, Luxembourgish, Madurese, Sicilian, Spanish, Thai, and Vietnamese Wikipedias! This limited-time campaign feature celebrates 25 years of Wikipedia with a birthday mascot, Baby Globe. When turned on, Baby Globe is shown on [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikipedia 25/Easter egg experiments/article configuration|~2,500 articles]], waiting to be discovered by readers. Communities can choose to turn Birthday mode on by getting consensus from their community and asking an admin to enable the feature and customize it via [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikipedia 25/Easter egg experiments#Community Configuration Demo|community configuration]] on the local wiki.
'''Updates for editors'''
* [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/WMDE Technical Wishes/Sub-referencing|Sub-referencing]], a new feature to re-use references with different details has been released to Swedish Wikipedia, Polish Wikipedia and [[:phab:T418209|a couple of other wikis]]. You can [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/WMDE Technical Wishes/Sub-referencing#test|try the feature]] on these projects or on testwiki and [https://en.wikipedia.beta.wmcloud.org/wiki/Sub-referencing betawiki]. Learnings from the first pilot wiki German Wikipedia have been [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/WMDE Technical Wishes/Sub-referencing/Learnings|published in a report]]. Reach out to the Wikimedia Deutschland team if you are [[:m:Talk:WMDE Technical Wishes/Sub-referencing#Pilot wikis|interested in becoming a pilot wiki]].
* [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Edit check#Paste check|Paste Check]] will become available at all Wikipedias this week. The feature prompts newcomers who are pasting text they are not likely to have written into VisualEditor to consider whether doing so risks a copyright violation. Paste Check [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Edit check/Tags|tags]] all edits where it is shown for potential review. Local administrators can configure various aspects of the feature via [[{{#special:EditChecks}}]]. [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Edit check/Paste Check#A/B Experiment|Research]] across 22 wikis found that Paste Check resulted in an 18% decrease in relative reverted-edits compared to the control group. Translators can [https://translatewiki.net/w/i.php?title=Special%3ATranslate&group=ext-visualeditor-ve-mw-editcheck&filter=&optional=1&action=translate help to localize] this and related features.
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Experience|Reader Experience team]] will be standardizing the user menu in the top right for all mobile users so that it is closer to the desktop experience. Currently this user menu is only visible to users with Advanced Mobile Controls (AMC) turned on. The only change is that a couple buttons previously in the left-side menu will move to the top right for users who do not have AMC turned on. This change is expected to go out March 9 and seeks to improve the user interface. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T413912]
* Starting in the week of March 2, the emails sent out when an email address was added, removed, or changed for an account will switch to a substantially nicer and clearer HTML email from the prior plaintext one. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T410807]
* Notifications are currently limited to 2,000 historic entries per user, and extend back to 2013 when the feature was released. This is going to be changed to only store Notifications from the last 5 years, but up to 10,000 of them. This will help with long-term infrastructure health and help to prevent more recent notifications from disappearing too soon. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T383948]
* The [[m:Special:GlobalWatchlist|Global Watchlist]] which lets you view your watchlists from multiple wikis on a single page continues to see improvements. The latest update improves label usage experience. The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:GlobalWatchlist|extension]] now allows activating the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Manual:Language#Fallback languages|language fallback system]] for Wikidata items without labels in the viewed language, and showing those labels in the user’s preferred Wikidata language if no <code dir=ltr>uselang=</code> URL parameter is provided. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T373686][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T416111]
* The Wikipedia Android team has started a beta test of [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Information Retrieval/Phase 1|hybrid search]] on Greek Wikipedia. Hybrid search capabilities can handle both semantic and keyword queries enabling readers to find what they’re looking for directly on Wikipedia more easily.
* For security reasons, members of certain user groups are [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Mandatory two-factor authentication for users with some extended rights|required to have two-factor authentication]] (2FA) enabled. Currently, 2FA is required to use the group, but not to be a member of it. Given that this model still has some vulnerabilities, the situation will [[phab:T418580|gradually change in March]]. Members of these groups will be unable to disable last 2FA method on their account, and it will be impossible to add users without 2FA to these groups. Users will still be able to add new authentication methods or remove them, as long as at least one method is continuously enabled. In the second half of March, users without 2FA will be removed from these groups. This applies to: CentralNotice administrators, checkusers, interface administrators, suppressors, Wikidata staff, Wikifunctions staff, WMF Office IT and WMF Trust & Safety. Nothing will change for other users. See the linked task for deployment schedule. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T418580]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* To help ensure [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/MediaWiki Product Insights/Responsible Reuse|fair use of infrastructure]], over the next month the Wikimedia Foundation will implement global API rate limits across our APIs. In early March, stricter limits will be applied to unidentified requests from outside Toolforge/WMCS and API requests that are made from web browsers. In April, higher limits will be applied to identified traffic. These limits are intentionally set as high as possible to minimise impact on the community. Bots running in Toolforge/WMCS or with the bot user right on any wiki should not be affected for now. However, all developers are advised to follow updated best practices. For more information, see [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits|Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits]].
* The Wikidata Query Service Linked Data Fragment (LDF) endpoint will be decommissioned in February. This endpoint served limited traffic, which was successfully migrated to other data access methods that were better suited to support existing use cases. The hardware used to support the LDF endpoint will be reallocated to support the ongoing backend migration efforts. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T415696]
* The new Parsoid parser [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Parsoid/Parser Unification/Updates|continues to be deployed to additional wikis]], improving platform sustainability and making it easier to introduce new reading and editing features. Parsoid is now the default parser on 488 WMF wikis (268 Wikipedias), now covering more than 10% of all Wikipedia page views.
* The process and criteria for [[Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Enterprise#Access|requesting exceptional access]] to the high volume feed of the ''Wikimedia Enterprise'' APIs (at no cost for mission-aligned usecases), [[m:Talk:Wikimedia Enterprise#Exceptional access criteria|have now been published]]. This is to provide more thorough and clearer documentation for users.
* [https://techblog.wikimedia.org/ Tech Blog], the blog dedicated to the Wikimedia technical community [https://techblog.wikimedia.org/2026/02/24/a-tech-blog-diff/ will be migrating] to [[diffblog:|Diff]], the community news and event blog. The migration should be complete in April 2026, after which new posts will be accepted for publishing. Readers will be able to access posts – old and new – on the landing page at https://diff.wikimedia.org/techblog.
* [[File:Reload icon with two arrows.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] Detailed code updates later this week: [[mw:MediaWiki 1.46/wmf.18|MediaWiki]]

Latest '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News|tech news]]''' from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2026/11|Translations]] are available.
'''Weekly highlight'''
* [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/Server switch|All wikis will be read-only]] for a few minutes on Wednesday, 25 March 2026 at [https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1774450800 15:00 UTC]. This is for the datacenter server switchover backup tests, [[wikitech:Deployments/Yearly calendar|which happen twice a year]]. During the switchover, all Wikimedia website traffic is shifted from one primary data center to the backup data center to test availability and prevent service disruption even in emergencies.
* Last week, all wikis had 2 hours of read-only time, and extended unavailability for user-scripts and gadgets. This was due to a security incident which has since been resolved. Work is ongoing to prevent re-occurrences. For current information please see the [[m:Steward's noticeboard#Statement on Meta about today's user script security incident|post on the Stewards' noticeboard]] ([[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation/Product and Technology/Product Safety and Integrity/March 2026 User Script Incident|translations]]).
'''Updates for editors'''
* Users facing multiple blocks on mobile will now see the reasons for each block separately, instead of a generic message. This helps them understand why they are blocked and what steps they can take to resolve the issue. For example, users affected for using common VPNs (such as [[Special:MyLanguage/Apple iCloud Private Relay|iCloud Private Relay]]) will receive clearer guidance on what they need to do to start editing again. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T357118]
* Later this week, [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/VisualEditor/Suggestion Mode|Suggestion Mode]] will become available as a beta feature within the visual editor at all Wikipedias. This feature proactively suggests various types of actions that people can consider taking to improve Wikipedia articles, and learn about related guidelines. The feature is locally configurable, and can also be locally expanded with custom Suggestions. Current settings can be seen at [[Special:EditChecks]] and there are [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Suggestion mode#For administrators %E2%80%93 local customization|instructions for how administrators can customize]] the links to point to local guidelines. The feature is connected to [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Edit check|Edit check]] which suggests improvements while someone is writing new content. In the future, the Editing team plans to evaluate the feature's impact with newcomers through a controlled experiment. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T404600]
* [[File:Reload icon with two arrows.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] View all {{formatnum:23}} community-submitted {{PLURAL:23|task|tasks}} that were [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]]. For example, the issue where the cursor became misaligned during the use of CodeMirror’s syntax highlighting, which makes wikitext and code easier to read, has now been fixed. This problem specifically affected users who defined a font rule in a custom stylesheet while creating a new topic with DiscussionTools. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T418793]
'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* API rate limiting update: To help ensure [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/MediaWiki Product Insights/Responsible Reuse|fair use of infrastructure]], global API rate limits will be applied this week to requests without a compliant User-Agent that originate from outside Toolforge/WMCS and to unauthenticated requests made from web browsers. Higher limits will be applied to identified traffic in April. Bots running in Toolforge/WMCS or with the bot user right on any wiki should not be affected for now. However, all developers are advised to follow updated best practices. For more information, see [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits|Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits]].
* The new GraphQL API has been released. The API was developed as a flexible alternative to select features of the Wikidata Query Service (WDQS), to improve developer experience and foster adaptability, and efficient data access. Try it out and [[d:Wikidata:Wikibase GraphQL#Feedback and development|give feedback]]. You can also [https://greatquestion.co/wikimediadeutschland/GraphQLAPI/apply sign up for usability tests].
* The [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Product and Technology Advisory Council/Unsupported Tools Working Group|PTAC Unsupported Tools Working Group]] continued improvements to [[commons:Special:MyLanguage/Commons:Video2commons#|Video2Commons]] in February, with fixes addressing authentication errors, large-file handling, task queue visibility, and clearer upload behavior. Work is still ongoing in some areas, including changes related to deprecated server-side uploads. Read [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Product and Technology Advisory Council/Unsupported Tools Working Group#February 2026|this update]] to learn more.

'''Updates for editors'''
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror|{{int:codemirror-beta-feature-title}}]] beta feature, also known as [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror 6]], has been used for wikitext syntax highlighting since November 2024. It will be promoted out of beta by May 2026 in order to bring improvements and new [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror#Features|features]] to all editors who use the standard syntax highlighter. If you have any questions or concerns about promoting the feature out of beta, [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help talk:Extension:CodeMirror|please share]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T259059]
* Some changes to local user groups are performed by stewards on Meta-Wiki and logged there only. Now, interwiki rights changes will be logged both on Meta-Wiki and the wiki of the target user to make it easier to access a full record of user's rights changes on a local wiki. Past log entries for such changes will be backfilled in the coming weeks. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T6055]
* On wikis using [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Flagged Revisions|Flagged Revisions]], the number of pending changes shown on [[{{#Special:PendingChanges}}]] previously counted pages which were no longer pending review, because they have been removed from the system without being reviewed, e.g. due to being deleted, moved to a different namespace, or due to wiki configuration changes. The count will be correct now. On some wikis the number shown will be much smaller than before. There should be no change to the list of pages itself. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T413016]
* Wikifunctions composition language has been rewritten, resulting in a new version of the language. This change aims to increase service stability by reducing the orchestrator's memory consumption. This rewrite also enables substantial latency reduction, code simplification, and better abstractions, which will open the door to later feature additions. Read more about [[f:Special:MyLanguage/Wikifunctions:Status updates/2026-03-11|the changes]].
* Users can now sort search results alphabetically by page title. The update gives an additional option to finding pages more easily and quickly. Previously, results could be sorted by Edit date, Creation date, or Relevance. To use the new option, open 'Advanced Search' on the search results page and select 'Alphabetically' under 'Sorting Order'. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T403775]

For example, the bug that prevented UploadWizard on Wikimedia Commons from importing files from Flickr has now been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T419263]
'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* A new special page, [[{{#special:LintTemplateErrors}}]], has been created to list transcluded pages that are flagged as containing lint errors to help users discover them easily. The list is sorted by the number of transclusions with errors. For example: [[{{#special:LintTemplateErrors}}/night-mode-unaware-background-color]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T170874]
* Users of the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror|{{int:codemirror-beta-feature-title}}]] beta feature have been using [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror]] instead of [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeEditor|CodeEditor]] for syntax highlighting when editing JavaScript, CSS, JSON, Vue and Lua content pages, for some time now. Along with promoting CodeMirror 6 out of beta, the plan is to replace CodeEditor as the standard editor for these content models by May 2026. [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help talk:Extension:CodeMirror|Feedback or concerns are welcome]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T419332]
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror]] JavaScript modules will soon be upgraded to CodeMirror 6. Leading up to the upgrade, loading the <code dir=ltr>ext.CodeMirror</code> or <code dir=ltr>ext.CodeMirror.lib</code> modules from gadgets and user scripts was deprecated in July 2025. The use of the <code dir=ltr>ext.CodeMirror.switch</code> hook was also deprecated in March 2025. Contributors can now make their scripts or gadgets compatible with CodeMirror 6. See the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror#Gadgets and user scripts|migration guide]] for more information. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T373720]
* The MediaWiki Interfaces team is expanding coverage of REST API module definitions to include [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/API:REST API/Extensions|extension APIs]]. REST API modules are groups of related endpoints that can be independently managed and versioned. Modules now exist for [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T414470 GrowthExperiments] and [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T419053 Wikifunctions] APIs. As we migrate extension APIs to this structure, documentation will move out of the main MediaWiki OpenAPI spec and REST Sandbox view, and will instead be accessible via module-specific options in the dropdown on the [https://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:RestSandbox REST Sandbox] (i.e., [[{{#Special:RestSandbox}}]], available on all wiki projects).
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Scribunto|Scribunto]] extension provides different pieces of information about the wiki where the module is being used via the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Scribunto/Lua reference manual|mw.site]] library. Starting last week, the library also provides a [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Scribunto/Lua reference manual#mw.site.wikiId|way]] of accessing the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Manual:Wiki ID|wiki ID]] that can be used to facilitate cross-wiki module maintenance.

'''Weekly highlight'''
* Wikimedia site users can now log in without a password using passkeys. This is a secure method supported by fingerprint, facial recognition, or PIN. With this change, all users who opt for passwordless login will find it easier, faster, and more secure to log in to their accounts using any device. The new passkey login option currently appears as an autofill suggestion in the username field. An additional [[phab:T417120|"Log in with passkey" button]] will soon be available for users who have already registered a passkey. This update will improve security and user experience. The [[c:File:Passwordless_login_screencast.webm|screen recording]] demonstrates the passwordless login process step by step.
* [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/Server switch|All wikis will be read-only]] for a few minutes on Wednesday, 25 March 2026 at [https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1774450800 15:00 UTC]. This is for the datacenter server switchover backup tests, [[wikitech:Deployments/Yearly calendar|which happen twice a year]]. During the switchover, all Wikimedia website traffic is shifted from one primary data center to the backup data center to test availability and prevent service disruption even in emergencies.
'''Updates for editors'''
* Wikimedia site users can now export their notifications older than 5 years using a [[toolforge:echo-chamber|new Toolforge tool]]. This will ensure that users retain their important notifications and avoid them being lost based on the planned change to delete notifications older than 5 years, as previously announced. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T383948]
* Wikipedia editors in Indonesian, Thai, Turkish, and Simple English now have access to Special:PersonalDashboard. This is an [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Moderator Tools/Dashboard|early version of an experience]] that introduces newer editors to patrolling workflows, making it easier for them to move from making edits to participating in more advanced moderation work on their project. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T402647]
* The [[Special:Block]] now has two minor interface changes. Administrators can now easily perform indefinite blocks through a dedicated radio button in the expiry section. Also, choosing an indefinite expiry provides a different set of common reasons to select from, which can be changed at: [[MediaWiki:Ipbreason-indef-dropdown]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T401823]
* Mobile editors [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Contributors/Account Creation Experiments#Logged-out|at several wikis]] can now see an improved logged-out edit warning, thanks to the recent updates from the Growth team. These changes released last week are part of ongoing efforts and tests to enhance [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Contributors/Account Creation Experiments|account creation experience on mobile]] and then increase participation.

With the [[WN:Water cooler/miscellaneous#Board of Trustees Approves Closure of Wikinews|pending closure of the project]], there are several tasks that could be done to ensure the read-only version of ''Wikinews'' is presented appropriately. We can use this page to track that work.
== Tasks for anyone ==
If you are a non-reviewer and non-admin and still want to help, consider the following tasks:
* See the list of [[:Category:flag|flagged discussions]] and weigh in on any of them to help resolve the issues.
* See the list of requests at [[WN:DR|Deletion requests]] and weigh in on any of them to help move the needle towards resolution
* Know of any other tasks that need done? Post on the [[Wikinews talk:2026 Wind-down Wikinews|talk page]]
* Contribute to our last article: [[Wikinews:Story preparation/Wikinews closes after 21 years]]
== Reviewer tasks ==
I'm not sure how disabling FlaggedRevs will affect unsighted changes so reviewers should work through the list to ensure the stable version is what we want to remain permanent:
* [[:Category:Review]]
== DPL ==
DPL will likely be disabled, causing an error to be reported on any page that uses DPL to return a list of pages.
We use DPL on many pages that will need to be updated to avoid having an error reported.
The following is a list of pages we should probably remove DPL from and replace with static lists:
{| class="wikitable"
! Page !! Comment
|-
| [[Main page]] || (Remove DPL '''April 30''')
|-
| [[Newsroom]] || (Remove DPL '''April 30''')
|-
| [[Wikinews:Water cooler]] || (Remove DPL '''April 30''')
|-
| [[Wikinews:Archives]] || ({{tl|DateDPL}} appears to be central)
|-
| [[Australia/2004]] || (all are also archives)
|-
| [[Australia/2005]] ||
|-
| [[Australia/2006]] ||
|-
| [[Australia/2007]] ||
|-
| [[Australia/2008]] ||
|-
| [[Australia/2009]] || (removing from parent page, not subpages)
|-
| [[Categories]] || I believe the categories are largely done but not fully updated in [[:Category:Pages using the DynamicPageList extension]]. See also [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T423512#11843275 comment on phab T423512])
|-
| Infoboxes || (see below)
|}
Pages using DPL: {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Pages using the DynamicPageList extension}}
A note on that number: Working through the list I've come across some difficulties. [[:Category:Pages using the DynamicPageList extension]] seems to persistently list some pages as using DPL, despite DPL being removed. I noticed it initially with templates, which also previously used FlaggedRevs, though that has been recently disabled for templates. See [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T423512 phab T423512] and [[Wikinews:Water cooler/proposals#Limit the FlaggedRevs extension to the article namespace?|disabling FlaggedRevs in the template namespace]]. The broke-around I'm implementing in some cases is to move the current template and recreate it with a copy/paste and that seems to flush the template out of the category.
However, I just found numerous [[User:Michael.C.Wright/maintenance#Categories|categories]] that still report having DPL. I likely don't have the time to get through that entire list and I'm not sure it's worth it to re-open the ticket and get help, given that 1. DPL is no longer supported and 2. [[Wikinews:Water cooler/miscellaneous#Board of Trustees Approves Closure of Wikinews|pending closure of the project]]. If someone else wants to jump into that problem, please do. Otherwise, we may just let it ride and see how the categories react to DPL being disabled. Not an ideal solution...
=== Archives ===
Our [[WN:Archives]] is largely organized using DPL, using {{tl|DateDPL}} extensively. I'm not really sure how to tackle this. See [[Wikinews talk:2026 Wind-down Wikinews#Our Archives]] and/or [[Wikinews:Water cooler/technical#DPL, our archives, and potential bot use]] and weigh in if you can.
=== Infoboxes ===
: See also: [[Wikinews:Admin action alerts#In anticipation of DPL being disabled]]
: See also: [[Wikinews talk:2026 Wind-down Wikinews#Bot to convert DPL to static lists]]
All of the infoboxes we place on articles use DPL.
See the following for examples of how DPL is being converted to static lists:
* [[Template:Afghanistan]] (manually rebuild using {{tl|Infosection}} to replace {{tl|infobox}})
* [[Template:Albania]]
* [[Template:Mauritania]] (already used {{tl|Infosection}} instead of {{tl|infobox}}, simply replace DPL with copied/pasted static list)
Feel free to add to this page.
{{Ping|Michael.C.Wright}} See [[:phab:T421796#11825297]].

== Archive published articles ==
We should archive all published articles and make sure the quality is at the level we want it to be. See [[Wikinews:Archive conventions]] for instructions on the archival process.
This will require someone who is both a reviewer and admin to complete, as admin can't sight changes and published articles are protected to admin-only.
In addition to the below list, there are categories of "archived-but-not-really-archived" articles that could be addressed:
* [[:Category:Archived-bot]]
* [[:Category:AutoArchived]]
* [[:Category:Archived by Gryllida]]
Published, but not archived articles:
<DynamicPageList>
allowcachedresults = true
category=Published
notcategory=Archived
notcategory=AutoArchived
addfirstcategorydate=true

{{w|Brazil women's national football team}} defeated {{w|Zambia women's national football team|Zambia}} 6-1 in a friendly. [[File:Selection feminine.jpg|thumb]]
On 15 April 2026, Brazil defeated Zambia in a thrilling 6-1 thrashing. Zambia's and Brazil's national teams have been on a similar run of form, with Zambia having 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses in their last five matches, whilst Brazil have 3 wins and 2 losses in their last five. Only being 1-0 at the break, Brazil then went on to score five. When Zambia's first-choice goalkeeper Nali got a red card, Zambia were reduced to 10 women. Zambia's Banda scored their only goal in the 51st minute, whilst Brazil's scorers were {{w|Yasmim}} (30'), {{w|Tainá Maranhão}} (47'), {{w|Angelina (footballer)|Angelina}} (60' pen), {{w|Raissa Bahia}} (77'), {{w|Kerolin}} (90'+1) and {{w|Vitória Calhau}} (90'+6 pen). Two of Brazil's goals were from penalties.
