The disputed footnote at the bottom of the page ("All presented banknotes belong to the series, which resulting in circulation during my stay on Aruba (2015). The collection does not claim to completeness or timeliness.") I think is a kind of disclaimer. It tells the time, the banknotes were locally in circulation (2015) and it indicates that there may be other banknotes of Arbua, they might not seen on the page.

To that effect I've prepared quick, Yoruba-specific landing page: '''[[User:Stephane_(Kiwix)/Landing]]'''. Would you be willing to translate it? The initial text comes from the English wiki but at the end of the day please make it yours: remove links that do not exist, add new ones, etc., so that it does look nice and friendly enough (but please no new images for the time being as long as we haven't got the CSS right).

This is a great expansion of the event and it means that there is another opportunity to make Wikipedia more factual and verifiable by leveraging the expertise of librarians around the world. * While this campaign encourages participation from the southern hemisphere, we would love for you to join us even if you participated in the January campaign – after all, Wikipedia is only as strong as its references! So whether we call this 1Lib1Ref May, 1Lib1Ref for the Southern Hemisphere, or 1Lib1Ref Strikes Back, the point is the excitement is building again, and we'd like you to be a part of it.

We seniors have already stayed at home all week by order of the Ministry of Health. Our kibbutz being a communally run village, neighborhood volunteers did our grocery shopping and the on-site medical clinic keeps its schedule with a family or children's doctor several hours a day and nurses with weekday shifts and home visits. So long as we have electricity I can maintain connections with family, friends, and of course WP. Our local Western Galilee He.WP users group had its first meetup yesterday on Zoom, with all seven participants! Plenty of editing to do at home. We mainly worry about the capability of Israel's overloaded public health system holding up to the demands on it, and especially the workers who have long hours and are starting to lack protective gear.

You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki. When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed. Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin '''will still be able to access the IP'''. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on [[m:IP Editing: Privacy Enhancement and Abuse Mitigation/Improving tools|better tools]] to help.

Thanks [[Oníṣe:Demmy|Demmy]] ([[Ọ̀rọ̀ oníṣe:Demmy|ọ̀rọ̀]]) 20:02, 26 Oṣù Kẹrin 2024 (UTC) :Hello @[[Oníṣe:Demmy|Demmy]] , thank you for this information.

Let me give you the chronology of the problems. I first learned about this user’s disruptive editing in 2022 when they were making some sloppy edits such as [https://yo.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Asisat_%C3%92%E1%B9%A3%C3%B3%C3%A0l%C3%A0&diff=prev&oldid=551361 this] and [[Esther_sunday|this article]] (you can see that the mess remains there to date) and [https://yo.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=%E1%BB%8C%CC%80r%E1%BB%8D%CC%80_on%C3%AD%E1%B9%A3e:Taoheedah&diff=prev&oldid=552220 left a note] on their talk page requesting that these articles should be fixed. This user completely ignored it, and continued the disruption. I assume good faith, with the hope that they are genuinely interested in the Yoruba Wikipedia community and become a productive editor if given a chance. A month later, another user (who is now an administrator), [[User:Agbalagba]], [https://yo.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=%E1%BB%8C%CC%80r%E1%BB%8D%CC%80_on%C3%AD%E1%B9%A3e:Taoheedah&diff=prev&oldid=552315 left another message] on their talk page expressing concerns about their contributions. This was also ignored and the disruption continued. Four months ago, or thereabout, another user, [[User:‎Ọmọladéabídèmí99]] privately contacted them on the need to fix their disruptive articles/contributions, this user insulted her and in fact blocked her from contacting her ever again. The disruption continued afterward. Fast forward to last week. User:Agbalagba pinged her to another article she had edited, and asked her to fix her edits. Because she was not the one who created the article, but only edited the article, she was offended that she was pinged and claimed that she had been slandered. When I spotted that she never liked that she was pinged there by Agbalagba, I moved the discussion to her talk page, and in a bit to protect her from possible sanction when it was pretty obvious that they did not get the point, I [https://yo.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=%E1%BB%8C%CC%80r%E1%BB%8D%CC%80_on%C3%AD%E1%B9%A3e:Taoheedah&diff=prev&oldid=585816 left a comment] on the discussion with the closing remark that “'''I believe that feedback has been given, lessons have been learned, and these would help you to improve. Let's get back to work.'''”. Sadly, this user again responded dismissively that they had not translated articles with machines without taking the feedback given by numerous editors and no actual commitment to fix their disruptive articles and edits were given. :When they were asked why they had translated ... '''played as a midfielder for the Nigeria women's national football team''' as '''Elere naa ṣere fun team awọn obinrin''', they responded that since I was the one who identified the wrong translation, I should provide the correct translation. At this point, it was clear to me that they were not here to build an encyclopaedia, and the disruption would continue anyway. So, I revoke their editing privilege here, with a block. I left their talk page open with the hope that they would use it to appeal their block after a demonstration of understanding of the problem. They were using the talk page to cast aspersions and make unfounded accusations, including [https://yo.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=%E1%BB%8C%CC%80r%E1%BB%8D%CC%80_on%C3%AD%E1%B9%A3e:Taoheedah&diff=prev&oldid=585851 calling me a "bully]." Thus, I revoked the talk page access and left the "email channel" open to hear their appeal over email. :In conclusion, I am not inclined to unblock this user until they demonstrate comprehension of the issues and retract all baseless accusations made against me and other users. Furthermore, I firmly object to any administrator considering an unblock for this user at this time. If we must consider a future appeal, they must show a strong commitment to fixing their disruptive contributions and show how they plan to avoid the behavior that resulted in their block.
