UTRS for Portuguese Wikipedia
Hello, DeltaQuad. With regards to using UTRS for Portuguese Wikipedia, do you have any news?
We had a discussion on pt.wiki about that and I believe there is clear consensus for using it there instead of the current system. Regards.—Teles «Talk to me˱M @ C S˲» 17:06, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
- Hi @Teles:. With TParis back as a developer, I finally have some time to put into this. This will be my single priority with UTRS, so we can actually get this moving and on the road.
- Instructions for translators: I will request that any translators create an account at [github.com Github] so that they can be given the permissions to edit the relevant files. From there, they will need to notify me so I can add them to the translators group. Once I've done that, they can start editing the translation file right on the github website. Also they will need to keep an eye on their email for new updates which will require translation.
- Some information on the tool itself: Pt.wiki will get it's own database, so it won't be confused or mixed with enwiki's. On the main appeal form there will be the ability to select either ptwiki or enwiki. We'll also have it so that it will default to whatever is pasted in the url like "utrs.wmflabs.org/?uselang=ptwiki" or something as such so you can set it to that by default. Any questions in which you have so far?

- Hello, Amanda. I've joined GitHub as 'radixwiki'. Thanks, RadiX∞ 01:50, 4 May 2016 (UTC)
- Amanda, excellent news! I have notified other sysops so some of them can show interest on helping. My account on Github is 'Lteles'. I can start translating ASAP. Regards.—Teles «Talk to me˱M @ C S˲» 01:54, 4 May 2016 (UTC)
- Hi Amanda, good fay, I am also sysop of pt:wikipedia and i've joined GitHub as Le0nsaud. Greetings--Leon saudanha (talk) 13:48, 4 May 2016 (UTC)

- Hi Amanda, i have translated te most messages of UTRS, but in time to save I think I just accidentally merge the ancient version of script with the version translated... do you can correct this?--Leon saudanha (talk) 14:27, 8 May 2016 (UTC)
- I am translating the file. Can you explain what is the meaning of "Revealed this appeals email" and similar messages? I am stuck on these ones. Thanks!—Teles «Talk to me˱M @ C S˲» 18:40, 2 June 2016 (UTC)
- @TParis: thanks! It is that the phrase doesn't seem to make sense for me. Could you please write the phrase in other words?—Teles «Talk to me˱M @ C S˲» 20:14, 7 June 2016 (UTC)
- How about "accessed the hidden e-mail address from which the appeal was sent"? ☺ · Salvidrim! · ✉ 20:22, 7 June 2016 (UTC)

- @Teles: Would you be able to pass on the following message to the ptwiki community to keep them updated?
Hi ptwikipedia, I wanted to give you an update as a community of where we are at with making UTRS availible for ptwiki. We have made some large strides in the past few months, but indeed we have meany more to make. As soon as the translations are done for the relevant file I will be able to show you what the appeal form (from the blocked users point of view) will be like. I'm excited for that to happen.
There are still many files that need to be prepared for translation and I'm working on those. As of this moment, there are 50 messages to be translated, many of which came from updates made in the past 24 hours. We also have a working list of bugs that need to be addressed for you guys to be able to have your own version. These pages are updated dynamically.
While the translations are not yet availible on the beta interface, it is availible to play around with if you wish. You can't break anything there, or if you can, it's the developer's fault.
As for the design, ptwikipedia will have it's own database, using the same links that enwikipedia uses. The configuration that determines which language you get will be provided through a cookie. With the databases seperate, you will not be able to see each other's appeals, so there will be no confusion.
If you do have any questions or requests for features, please do let Teles know, who can pass them on to @Salvidrim!: - Your tool Ambassador.

Username policy violation
Hi DQ,
Just bringing to your attention this newly created username User:Sony Xperia X Performance that appears to be violating WP:PRODNAME. The user has already edited the article Sony Xperia X Performance. Stanleytux (talk) 20:28, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
your advice please...
You blocked Which Hazel? and That man from Nantucket.
Just prior to their block, this individual initiated Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Libby Garvey.
I never interacted with this contributor before -- under this wiki-id. But since their block was lifted all their edits have targeted my contributions. Many of these edits are clearly bad edits. Many are the kinds of edits that trigger edit-warring. They have also left several comments that explicitly accused me of acting in bad faith.
I've been civil, in my comments to them, which they have explicitly told me they will not read. Several of their edits explicitly accuse me of editing in bad faith.
Among the bad edits that targetted my contributrions were several excisions of entries to disambiguation pages I started. Yesterday I responded to a request for help at Help talk:Disambiguation.
Their reply tacitly acknowledges their wikistalking.
Even a stopped clock is correct twice a day. The edits they made, targeting my contributions, do include some valid edits. But I think their blatant violation of WP:Wikipedia is not a battleground is more important.
WP:Twinkle#Abuse says those who use twinkle in counter-policy ways: "risk having one's account blocked." The individual or individuals using this wiki-id have used twinkle in their harrassment of me. Is this sufficient for them to be blocked? I assumed one had to apply to use twinkle, and that rogue twinkle users could merely be blocked from using twinkle any further.
How would we know whether the individual or individuals who use this wiki-ID were currently using previously undetected sockpuppets? Geo Swan (talk) 13:25, 16 June 2016 (UTC)
Bot-reported UAA
I saw there was a backlog at UAA, so thought I might contribute. I blocked User:Homoz and then re-read the instructions. They say "Wait until the user edits. Do not report a user that hasn't edited unless they are clearly a vandal. We do not want to welcome productive editors with a report at UAA. Nor do we want to waste our time dealing with accounts that may never be used." Homoz hadn't edited yet; should the bot be reporting such accounts pre-emptively?
