Hi Armbrust, I'm enjoying your current draft for the Featured Content section. I just noticed that you do not use the {{ signpost filler image}} or {{ Signpost brief filler image}} templates, as we do elsewhere in the publication. Is there a reason for this?

Community bans

Questions:

  1. Why are community bans not logged at Editing Restrictions?
  2. If they are not logged there, where are they logged?
  3. What does this mean: "The discussion is then closed, and the sanction should be logged at the appropriate venue if necessary, usually Wikipedia:Editing restrictions or Wikipedia:Long-term abuse." (see WP:CBAN) -- Bbb23 ( talk) 23:27, 19 September 2016 (UTC) reply
I don't know why, but WP:RESTRICT clearly says in the lead that "editors who are subject to site bans are listed at Category:Banned Wikipedia users instead". (The key part of that is "if necessary".) Armbrust The Homunculus 23:57, 19 September 2016 (UTC) reply

EDIT: User:NOD32user/Userboxes/git has been changed by Armbrust

Good afternoon,

You (or a bot) have recently edited a userbox. Whilst I can see viewing history that this is an edit as per WP:CFDS the edit was partial, leaving the category link in the userbox to a moved page. I have corrected this edit. User:NOD32user/Userboxes/git

It is strongly suggested that these category edits be maintained for consistency across all categories, such as User:php which is now inconsistent. Example: Category user page (php) could be moved to new 'Wikipedians who use php' style of user category page. /info/en/?search=Category:User_php

Please raise for discussion, Unless Wikipedia is intending to move all User Category user pages to be consistent with the new model, please revert the category page and all associated changes. Feel free then to bring all userboxes into a consistent form. My appreciation.

Kind regard,

KING ( talk) 03:21, 23 November 2016 (UTC) reply

Please note: The edited userbox is the published version here, Wikipedia:Userboxes/Programming#Other

The category was listed on WP:CFDS on 05:42, 16 November 2016 with the following rationale: "C2C in line with rest of Category:Wikipedians by software, also a reverse C2D in that it clashes with an ISO 639 code, albeit for the obscure Gitxsan language". After nobody opposed it for more than 48 hours the category was processed in this edit, listed at WP:CFDW and then renamed. Also Category:User php isn't part of the Category:Wikipedians by software tree, but that of Category:Wikipedians by programming language. (The subcategories of these two use different formatting. "Wikipedians who use XXXX" for software and "User XXXX" for programming language.) Armbrust The Homunculus

Language tagging on Signpost

Hey, I saw you reverted my language tagging on your Signpost Featured content piece. I'll leave it as-is, because it feels very rude to roll back the article creator, but I was wondering what your rationale was for the reversion. :o) — OwenBlacker ( Talk) 09:42, 12 January 2017 (UTC) reply
