== Administrators' newsletter – January 2025 ==
== RFA2024 update: no longer accepting new proposals in phase I ==


] from the past month (December 2024).
Hey there! This is to let you know that phase I of the ] is now '''no longer accepting new proposals'''. Lots of proposals remain open for discussion, and the current round of review looks to be on a good track towards making significant progress towards improving ]'s structure and environment. I'd like to give my heartfelt thanks to everyone who has given us their idea for change to make RfA better, and the same to everyone who has given the necessary feedback to improve those ideas. The following proposals remain open for discussion:

* ''']''', initiated by {{noping|HouseBlaster}}, provides for the addition of a text box at ] reminding all editors of our policies and enforcement mechanisms around decorum.
* ''']''' and ''']''', initiated by {{noping|Barkeep49}} and {{noping|Usedtobecool}}, respectively, provide for trials of discussion-only periods at RfA. The first would add three extra discussion-only days to the beginning, while the second would convert the first two days to discussion-only.
* ''']''', initiated by {{noping|SilkTork}}, provides for a trial of RfAs without threaded discussion in the voting sections.
* ''']''' and ''']''', initiated by {{noping|BilledMammal}}, provide for allowing users to be selected as provisional admins for a limited time through various concrete selection criteria and smaller-scale vetting.
* ''']''', initiated by {{noping|Lee Vilenski}}, provides for the "General discussion" section being broken up with section headings.
* ''']''', initiated by {{noping|Reaper Eternal}}, provides for the requirement that allegations of policy violation be substantiated with appropriate links to where the alleged misconduct occured.
* ''']''', ''']''', and ''']''', initiated by {{noping|City of Silver}}, {{u|Ritchie333}}, and {{u|HouseBlaster}}, respectively, provide for reducing the discretionary zone, which currently extends from 65% to 75%. The first would reduce it 65%–70%, the second would reduce it to 50%–66%, and the third would reduce it to 60%–70%.
* ''']''', initiated by {{noping|Novem Lingaue}}, provides for periodic, privately balloted admin elections.
* ''']''', initiated by {{noping|Kusma}}, provides for the creation of some minimum suffrage requirements to cast a vote.
* ''']''' and ''']''', initiated by {{noping|Thebiguglyalien}} and {{noping|Soni}}, respectively, provide for community-based admin desysop procedures. 16 would desysop where consensus is established in favor at the ]; 16c would allow a petition to force reconfirmation.
* ''']''', initiated by {{noping|BilledMammal}}, would extend the recall procedures of 16 to bureaucrats.
* ''']''', initiated by {{noping|SchroCat}}, provides for "on-call" admins and 'crats to monitor RfAs for decorum.
* ''']''', initiated by {{noping|theleekycauldron}}, provides for lowering the RfB target from 85% to 75%.
* ''']''', initiated by {{noping|SportingFlyer}}, provides for a more robust alternate version of the ].
* ''']''', initiated by {{noping|Femke}}, provides for the requirement that nominees be extended-confirmed in addition to their nominators.
* ''']''', initiated by {{noping|WereSpielChequers}}, provides for the creation of a training course for admin hopefuls, as well as periodic retraining to keep admins from drifting out of sync with community norms.
* ''']''', initiated by {{noping|HouseBlaster}}, tightens restrictions on multi-part questions.

To read proposals that were closed as unsuccessful, please see ]. You are cordially invited once again to participate in the open discussions; when phase I ends, phase II will review the outcomes of trial proposals and refine the implementation details of other proposals. Another notification will be sent out when this phase begins, likely with the first successful close of a major proposal. Happy editing! ] (] • she/her), via:

== Different templates have different parameters ==

Hi, Rogerd, and thanks for adding ] to ] and adding the {{tl|Cleanup translation}} template to the article. That said, when you use a particular template, like {{tl|Cleanup translation}}, please read the doc page to determine what parameters to use. Simply changing a template name from one template to another, as you did in ], will rarely produce the result you expect. In this case, both parameters were wrong, and it produced nonsense output. I've fixed this for you so it does what you intended, but going forward please always check the doc to see what template parameters are needed, and please use the ] to make sure the output looks the way you expect it to, before you save it. Thanks, ] (]) 02:23, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

== Translated article Maxim Kopf needs an attribution statement in the edit summary ==
] Thank you for ] to Misplaced Pages. It appears that you translated text from ] to ]. While you are welcome to translate Misplaced Pages content, here or elsewhere, ] '''requires that you provide attribution''' to the contributor(s) of the original article. When translating from a foreign-language Misplaced Pages article, this is supplied at a minimum in an ''']''' on the page where you add translated content, identifying it as a translation and ] it to the source page. For example: <code>Content in this edit is translated from the existing French Misplaced Pages article at <nowiki>]</nowiki>; see its history for attribution.</code> It is good practice, especially if translation is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{tl|translated page}} template on the talk pages of the destination article. If you have added translated content previously which was not attributed at the time it was added, please ], even if it was a long time ago. You can read more about author attribution and the reasons for it at ]. Because you didnt know, or forgot to include an attribution statement in the edit summary of ] in your original translation edit, '''please do so now'''. See ] for further details. <!-- Template:uw-translation --> ] (]) 03:02, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
: In addition to ], I had a look at your other contributions, and found these two:
:* ] – appears to be an unattributed translation of French Misplaced Pages article '']''
:* ] – appears to be an unattributed translation of French Misplaced Pages article '']''
: These will both need the same treatment to repair attribution, as explained above for ].
: In the case of ], the original edit summary provided by the ] does have a link to the French Misplaced Pages article '']'' in the original edit, and may meet the requirements of ] g. ii, even though it doesn't follow the suggested wording given at ] (policy). So, you're probably okay for that one, and don't need to update it. For the other three, please follow ].
: Going forward, in order to not have to deal with these attribution repairs after the fact, just add the translation attribution to the edit summary of the very first edit when you create the article; see ] for suggested wording. Thanks, ] (]) 03:52, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
::Thank you for the assistance. I took care of those three articles. I wasn't aware of the procedures for documenting translations, but it makes a lot of sense. It is interesting, that I have been on Misplaced Pages for 18 years, and 15 as an admin, but I was unfamiliar with this area. I just occasionally run into red links or links to articles in other languages that I feel there should be one in English. I try to do what I can, but I am just a dumb American who doesn't know any languages besides English. Thanks again for the help. --] (]) 06:56, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
::: Hi, Rogerd. I had no idea of your seniority, and I'm really sorry I used a template rather than a longhand message. It's mostly my laziness, because it does save a lot of typing, and I can rely on the right links being added. I know what you mean: I've been around almost as long, and I know zilch about DYK, GA, and FA, for example, though I know what they stand for and that there are whole substrata of editors out there dealing with them. Attribution is another one of those arcane niches that some people end up falling into and getting fascinated by, and others don't. Thank goodness it's a volunteer project, and we don't all have to. {{wink}}
::: That said (and putting on my perfectionist hat ]{{hairspace}}), the three updates are not quite spot-on (but close enough you won't have to redo them; probably my fault for not explaining the situation adequately). The distinction is between adding the attribution statement in a timely manner for the present edit: (''Content in *this* edit *is* translated blah-blah'' – see ]), versus adding attribution retroactively for a previous edit where it had been forgotten or omitted: (''Content in the edit of 14:59, 12 February 2024 *was* translated blah-blah...'' – see ]). The three articles linked above had missing attribution from earlier edits, thus the wording in the retroactive version (]) would've been the right one to use in these cases. However, the important part is that the revision history of all three articles now have a link to the original foreign source and a statement that attribution (i.e., the list of authors) can be found there; this complies with the core requirement of the Terms of use §&nbsp;7, so you are good to go, even if the verb tense and suggested wording are slightly off.
::: It's confusing, I know. Fwiw, I tried to improve the situation slightly, as far as devising a proper retroactive attribution statement (]), in that just only today, I created template {{tl|attribution repair}} to help with that. Suggestions (and bug reports) welcome at its Talk page. Happy editing! ] (]) 10:30, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
::::I understand. I don't often translate articles. All four of the articles you found were persons with some relation to WWII, and I thought they needed to be in English Misplaced Pages. I didn't bring up my time on the project to imply in any way that it gives me any more rights than a less senior editor, but just to point out there are a lot of nooks and crannies in the project and nobody can know all of them, especially someone who has a life outside of Misplaced Pages. As I am typing this, I am also watching a college baseball game. Go ]. You also expressed that the project is too big for one person to know everything about it. Let me know if there is anything else I can do. Thanks. --] (]) 01:00, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

MfD nomination of User:Rogerd/AmExcept

User:Rogerd/AmExcept, a page which you created or substantially contributed to, has been nominated for deletion. Your opinions on the matter are welcome; you may participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Misplaced Pages:Miscellany for deletion/User:Rogerd/AmExcept and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You are free to edit the content of User:Rogerd/AmExcept during the discussion but should not remove the miscellany for deletion template from the top of the page; such a removal will not end the deletion discussion. Thank you. Cremastra (uc) 23:26, 26 October 2024 (UTC)

I'm embarrassed I didn't recognize your username until I saw it with the lowercase "r". Thanks for what you do. BusterD (talk) 00:17, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
Aw shucks. Actually, I haven't been as active as I used to be lately. Thanks again for responding to this silly MfD. rogerd (talk) 00:28, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
Silly MfDs are my specialty, sad to say. BusterD (talk) 01:38, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
You do good work. rogerd (talk) 03:03, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
I have withdrawn the MfD for obvious reasons. Apologies for the disturbance. Thanks, Cremastra (uc) 21:46, 27 October 2024 (UTC)

Reminder to participate in Misplaced Pages research

Hello,

I recently invited you to take a survey about administration on Misplaced Pages. If you haven’t yet had a chance, there is still time to participate– we’d truly appreciate your feedback. The survey is anonymous and should take about 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement.

Take the survey here.

Kind Regards,

WMF Research Team

BGerdemann (WMF) (talk) 00:17, 13 November 2024 (UTC)

FYI, when I got this, I had thought I had already taken the survey, and when I followed the link, I got a message that indeed I had. I hope that you aren't sending this message to a lot of other people who have already taken the survey. rogerd (talk) 02:06, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
