Please delete this page, thanks --minhhuy*= 11:04, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Please elaborate as to why? Peachey88 21:15, 23 August 2010 (UTC)

MediaWiki:Support desk/pl
Please, change it to "Panel pomocy". This formulation will be better in Polish. Marcin Łukasz Kiejzik (C, T, @) 16:45, 1 June 2010 (UTC)
 * ✅ -- Skiz zerz  23:56, 1 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks. And please change MediaWiki:Manual-text/pl to "Podręcznik", add MediaWiki:Browse svn/pl with "Przeglądaj SVN", MediaWiki:Blog-text/pl with "Blog techniczny", add MediaWiki:Portal/pl (change content to "Pomoc"), change MediaWiki:Help/pl to "Dokumentacja". And one more question. Who messed up translation? Marcin Łukasz Kiejzik (C, T, @) 13:42, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks, done. Authors of these translations could be looked up in page histories, as always. Max Semenik 14:33, 2 June 2010 (UTC)

Techni
I am a MediaWiki developer I seek to secure the articles on my development.User: Techni 19:51, 7 August 2010
 * ❌ MediaWiki developer means "have commit access to the wikimedia svn repository", which I do not believe you have. -- Skiz zerz  00:37, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

Editprotected
Could someone please take a look at my requests here and here? There doesn't seem to be an editprotected template to request attention directly there, so I thought I'd mention them here. Thanks, Waldir 07:34, 27 May 2010 (UTC)
 * ✅ by Happy-melon (1), Reedy (2) and MaxSem (3), (4). --Waldir 13:51, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

Delete sandbox
Please delete all old versions of Sandbox (delete it and restore the latest version). The version history contains copyright violations, pornographic texts which describe actions of persons under 14 (which may be illegal in your country), personal data and perhaps other content that qualifies for deletion. On the other side, the old content of the Sandbox isn't really needed. Example: copyvio from here (other example links may be provided on request per Email, I don't want to make them public).

I didn't start a regular request for deletion (a) because I only want old versions to be deleted and (b) the content of Sandbox changes often and the request for deletion would be removed by users testing on the page. Regards, --Church of emacs 07:05, 28 January 2010 (UTC)
 * ✅ Doned. Reedy 08:06, 28 January 2010 (UTC)


 * Thanks :) --Church of emacs 20:46, 30 January 2010 (UTC)

Requests for protection

 * We tend to avoid protecting content here unless it becomes high traffic or vandalised a lot so probably going to side on not doing it but I will let someone else decide. Peachey88 22:24, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
 * ✅ both semiprotected indefinitely by User:Reach Out to the Truth - TBloemink 08:46, 18 October 2011 (UTC)

Requests for deletion

 * $wgGroupPermissions has something funny going on. The current page is non-existant cotent, the history rev is a redirect. searching for it does not go to the Manual Manual:$wgGroupPermissions since this page exists. --Quadir 15:10, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
 * , $wgGroupPermissions is a redirect to Manual:$wgGroupPermissions so that it goes to it when you search it, Although I don't overly like these redirects (we should just fix the search) it isn't doing any harm. Peachey88 22:24, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

User deletion? iantresman
username: iantresman I want to unify my MediaWiki account with my accounts on the other projects, but I have lost my password, and stupidly did not add my email address. No contributions were made under my account. What do I need to do to get the password reset, or the MediaWiki account deleted, so that I can start again? I believe it is possible to match my IP address with my contributions on Wikipedia. --93.97.21.214 15:42, 18 October 2011 (UTC)
 * ✅ by renaming the local user account so that you can merge the name in with your SUL account. -- Skiz zerz  06:36, 19 October 2011 (UTC)

Problem with unified login
I normally edit on English Wikipedia as wikipedia:en:User:Bazonka. I have been trying to set up a unified login account for Bazonka, but I'm unable to do this fully because my Bazonka account here at Mediawiki is inaccessible. I don't know what the password is, and there is no email address associated with it, so the Password Reset functionality doesn't help. I had the same problem with my account at Commons. A bureaucrat helpfully renamed my unusable Bazonka account so that a new Bazonka account could be created (see here). Can the same be done to my account at Mediawiki please? If you need proof that I am the real Bazonka, then you should be able to email me via my English Wikipedia account. Thanks, Bazonka 91.125.92.179 11:01, 16 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Hi. The account was likely registered in past by someone else and now it was renamed in order to let you unify it. You can login to mediawiki.org using your central account now. Petrb (talk) 13:49, 16 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks very much. Bazonka (talk) 14:20, 16 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Actually that's not possible, Petrb. The account was created automatically according to the logs, and therefore must be unified. Me and other users have had the same problem. See 29234. -- Krenair (talk &bull; contribs) 20:00, 21 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Hi, I don't think it's impossible since it solved the issue? I already renamed previous holder of this name, and as you can see in reply, it worked Petrb (talk) 09:59, 23 March 2012 (UTC)
 * What I meant was that if an account was created automatically it cannot possibly have been done by anyone but whoever was logged in with the global account. I didn't mean that fixing it was impossible. -- Krenair (talk &bull; contribs) 17:30, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
 * But this account was not created automatically, you opened wrong logs. The account was renamed, so if you want to see the reason for creation of original account, you need to open logs of renamed account. Petrb (talk) 05:40, 26 March 2012 (UTC)
 * The logs you linked actually show the process of login unification done after fix of this issue Petrb (talk) 10:01, 23 March 2012 (UTC)

New gadget: Dot's syntax highlighter
Hi, I'm trying to get meta:User:Remember the dot/Syntax highlighter made into a gadget for various projects. ResourceLoader/Migration guide (users) says that gadgets like this should be hosted on mediawiki.org. So, I'd like to ask that:

 * I've done #2, though you could've done it yourself. For #1, can we please not use minified JS? -- Krenair (talk &bull; contribs) 21:51, 25 November 2012 (UTC)


 * I didn't want to move the documentation before the source code was moved, but I suppose it doesn't really matter. I provided minified code because I don't know of any other way to minify the script than to minify it manually. Gadgets hosted locally and used locally are minified through the local ResourceLoader, but this is not the case when loading a gadget cross-wiki. The regular source code will still be available (I'll move it here also) no matter what. —Remember the dot (talk) 22:00, 25 November 2012 (UTC)

Request access to old username Jpostlethwaite
I am a former employee at the Wikimedia Foundation. I would like to get access to my username:

User:Jpostlethwaite

I am using this account on Gerrit:

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/q/owner:Jpostlethwaite+status:open,n,z

I would like to continue working on extensions in which I am the maintainer:


 * http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:UnitTest
 * http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:LastModified

Note: When I try to reclaim with lost password, Mediawiki says it sent the password to my email, but nothing ever shows up. I believe it is going to my old employee email account.

Mark Extension:Education Program page for translation
I would like to begin translating Extension:Education Program to Spanish language, but I need a Translation Admin or someone with permission to mark it for translation. Thanks. --Zerabat (talk) 17:56, 1 November 2013 (UTC)

Please block users for identity theft (falsely impersonating others) and repeated vandalism
Hello - Can you please block the following users for repeated vandalism: Wiki Dick heads, Don't work for Skilled!, Abused by SKILLED. Please also block the following users: Pborobokas, A Pizzoni , Richard(E) Glover , Peter Eaves. These are false impersonations of staff members at SKILLED Group and the user is posting dafamatory comments. We know who is doing this and are following this up in Australia.- ltobrien
 * Hello. This does not appear to be happening on this wiki. Did you mean to post this on some other wiki? (in that case, we have no responsibility for it).--Jasper Deng (talk) 03:30, 23 February 2014 (UTC)

Deletion request
Hello, I don't know whether it is the good place to ask, but could you delete this page ? Is is a (blanked) copy of this message. I did a mistake when saving it twice. Thanks in advance, NemesisIII (talk) 19:36, 4 March 2014 (UTC)


 * ✅. Jdforrester (WMF) (talk) 20:06, 4 March 2014 (UTC)

Deletion request #2 - this time its serious....
Hello, I also don't know whether this is the best place to ask, but please would you delete this page? It is deprecated and it's information duplicated and expanded upon here. Thanks in advance.

Might I also be made an administrator, or at least someone with permission to delete pages I have created to avoid needing to bother you guys in future? I would understand if you decline this second element of my request. :)

Requester
 * The best place to ask is on that particular wiki. This wiki is for the documentation of the MediaWiki software, and any requests here can and will only affect pages on the mediawiki.org domain. If you have a problem with another wiki, you need to ask there. Since I see the domain for that wiki ends in ".local" either it is a company/intranet wiki or a wiki you installed locally for testing. Either way, see Help:Deleting a page for more information on how to delete pages. -- Skiz zerz  14:32, 24 April 2014 (UTC)
 * ❌ - As said above, this wiki is for documentation of the MediaWiki software. We cannot delete pages on that wiki since we are not local administrators there. As it is on a .local domain name, we cannot access that wiki. You should navigate to Special:ListAdmins on that wiki and request one of them to delete it. --GeorgeBarnick (talk) 19:10, 24 April 2014 (UTC)

Deletion of Wawa06's posts
Can an administrator look into these LQT posts and maybe delete them? whym (talk) 09:18, 16 May 2014 (UTC)

Semi-protection of How to contribute
Can you please semi-protect How to contribute and/or its translation pages for repeated vandalism? --Shirayuki (talk) 10:20, 30 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Done on How to contribute. Which translation pages in specific? I don't have time to look at the revision histories of all of them. Or are they all in need of protection? --GeorgeBarnick (talk) 14:44, 30 May 2014 (UTC)
 * I think the latter. Thanks in advance. --Shirayuki (talk) 21:16, 30 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Translation pages can't be protected because they can't be edited (only Special:Translate can edit them). If vandalism is serious, we could recursively protect all translation unit pages. --Nemo 05:20, 31 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, all unit pages should be protected recursively. e.g. be-tarask, ast
 * Done but I had forgotten cascading semiprotection is not possible. I did anyway because it doesn't prevent new translations, so we can bear for some time. --Nemo 09:30, 31 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Undo the latest two edits on How to contribute/ksh ([ diff]) --Shirayuki (talk) 08:56, 2 June 2014 (UTC)
 * From my point of few this semi-protedtion is just frustrating. since months I try to update the lb-version of this page.


 * If you really want me to give this up please delete as well all lb-translations already done on this page: How_to_contribute/lb. --Robby (talk) 10:51, 12 April 2015 (UTC)

Mark for translation
Could someone please mark the recent updates to Compatibility for translation? Please also keep an eye on Special:PageTranslation. whym (talk) 13:35, 5 June 2014 (UTC)
 * I just did a few dozens pages, but there were virtually no real changes and where there are some they are wrong (please check the current list). I expect this task to become easier for translation admins, hence faster on average, whenever 132636 is merged (it may take hours or years though, no idea). --Nemo 13:59, 5 June 2014 (UTC)
