| Currently, as shown in [[Special:ListGroupRights]], it seems that only bureaucrats may use the <code>checkuser-limited</code> permission. This permission allows checking oneself for the purpose of testing out the tool. It may be a good idea to grant this permission to administrators as administrators is the primary for-testing group here and it should not be necessary to request bureaucratship for testing. In addition, when it is only possible to check oneself there is very little capacity for damage (checking others will still be limited to Stewards).

| == "High chance of spam" filters and false positives ==
| |
| | |
| The spam filters have recently falsely blocked two users ([[User:PorkchopGMX]] and [[User:Dmehus]]) as spammers that were not. As a temporary solution [[User:MacFan4000]] has set them to just disallow again, but [https://testwiki.wiki/images/a/a6/Spambots.png they clearly need to block] provided we can remove false positives.
| |
| | |
| I suggest requiring 0 edits for block. Generally spambots trip this filter on their first edit, so anyone who has made any successful edits is likely not a spambot. Any other ideas? [[User:Naleksuh|Naleksuh]] ([[User talk:Naleksuh|talk]]) 23:41, 9 January 2021 (UTC)

| : The filter should also require the creation of a new page. It already does for one of the filters, but it should for the other too. [[User:Naleksuh|Naleksuh]] ([[User talk:Naleksuh|talk]]) 23:43, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
| |
| : I'm a bit confused, perhaps. Wouldn't requiring 0 edits to block ''increase'' the false positive blocks? Administrators are active here, and can revert spam quickly. I'd suggest just setting it to either warn or disallow permanently, with anyone with <code>autopatrol</code> in their '''user_rights''' exempted from the filter. [[User:Dmehus|Dmehus]] ([[User talk:Dmehus|talk]]) 23:46, 9 January 2021 (UTC)

| :::::No, because your permissions request didn’t contain anything that would trip the filter.

| '''Community proposal:''' To establish as official policy, subject to amendment at [[Test Wiki:Community portal]], [[Test Wiki:No open proxies policy|No open proxies policy]]. Such policy shall prohibit open proxies, somewhat broadly construed, VPNs, and web hosts from being used for anonymous editing or account creation. On discovery, a Steward shall soft block with account creation disabled and talk page access revoked said IP range(s) for a period of not less than three (3) and not more than twenty four (24) months. Logged in editors may use them, as is the case on [[mhmeta:No open proxies policy|Miraheze]], as at least the user will have been likely required to identify their personal IP to [[Special:CreateAccount|create an account]]. Where, upon discovery, an account was created by a VPN/open proxy, Steward discretion applies as to whether to block, or require a confirmation edit from a Wikimedia or Miraheze wiki. Steward discretion in terms of the length of the block/rangeblock applies, within the defined parameters, but the community recomments at least six (6) months for obvious cases. Where open proxies/VPNs are being used on this wiki by anonymous users, the open proxies/VPNs may be blocked by any <code>sysop</code>, subject to the same discretion as outlined above.

| I want to explain something important to the community, it's about verification and Users who should or shouldn't have the right of admin, as for testing we already know this is a Test wiki where you can Test administrator actions, I would like to ask should we recklessly give Admin and bureaucrat right to anyone without confirming if they're Known users on Wikipedia?, I think we should ask them to confirm their account on Meta to know whether they get to benefit from using MediaWiki Tools or just for Fun.

| *::[[User:PorkchopGMX|PorkchopGMX]], it's not really related to the <code>bureaucrat</code> role, ''at all'', though. ''That'''s why I don't support it. For context, the reason why it's restricted to Stewards on Miraheze is because of the potential to have malicious sites bypass the Content Security Policy. So, it's not a completely innocuous right. In this respect, the <code>block</code> and <code>delete</code> user rights are much more innocuous than the <code>interwiki</code> user right; importing ''can'' have potential issues, so I'd probably say this would be on par with ''that'', or maybe slightly ''above'' even. Above it would be interface administrator. My preference would be to delete a lot of the unneeded user groups that are below the <code>sysop</code> group, and just have one <code>testgroup</code> and maybe <code>autopatrolled</code> and <code>confirmed</code>.

| === General comments ===
| |
| * Procedurally, this proposal, though [[w:WP:AGF|good-faith]], is invalid as [[Test Wiki:Stewards|Stewards]] are the ''only'' community-elected, non-test administrators on Test Wiki. As such, the community has no capacity to restrict the <code>steward</code>, or even <code>sysadmin</code>, user group from having full access to the MediaWiki permissions toolkit. It's more than a bit bureaucratic (pardon the unintended pun) for a Steward to have to add a test user group (<code>bureaucrat</code>) to perform a non-test action related to the [[mw:Extension:Interwiki|Interwiki]] extension. Additionally, what if a user does ''not'' want <code>bureaucrat</code> permissions but ''does'' want to test the Interwiki extension? I have severe problems with requiring them to request a user group they do not want. I would, however, support amending the policy to require that interwiki administrators have the same level of trust as bureaucrats.

| Hi everyone,
| |
| | |
| Though Test Wiki is hosted on Fosshost (formerly hosted on MacFan4000's cloud-based VPS) and not the Miraheze wiki farm, there's a fair bit of user crossover between Test Wiki and Miraheze users. Indeed, the two stewards and system administrators on Test Wiki are either current or former stewards and/or system administrators on Miraheze. Ostensibly due to real life priorities, not to mention his myriad online activities, Test Wiki has been served, essentially, by only one steward and system administrator in MacFan4000. At the same time, similar to there being a fair bit of crossover between Miraheze and Test Wiki users, there's a fair bit of crossover between Miraheze and Test Wiki LTAs. So, similar to Void, as a Miraheze [[mhmeta:Stewards|Steward]], I'm seeking election as a Test Wiki Steward, so I can assist with those processes. Obviouusly, my Miraheze commitments, which includes my separate involvement with the [https://wiki.mirahezebots.org/wiki/ MirahezeBots] project where MacFan4000 is also a senior developer and bot operator, preclude me from being hugely active on Test Wiki, but this is also ''by design'' as I prefer to let Test Wiki bureaucrats gain confidence and experience in actioning permissions requests and tending to obvious vandalism. And, as a very active user in the Test Wiki IRC channel, as well as Miraheze IRC channels, I'm usually just a quick {{tl|ping}} away.

| ::{{ping|NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh}} {{ping|Dmehus}} Looking over the new script, it's fine, however there are a few small mistakes in terms of compatibility. MediaWiki only supports ECMAScript 5 (as opposed to 6) in most places (notably, this does not apply to scripts loaded directly from a URL), which means that you need to use the <code>var</code> keyword instead of <code>let</code>, which I've fixed. Also, making use of <code>mw.Api</code> requires that a dependency on <code>mediawiki.api</code> be added in [[MediaWiki:Gadgets-definition]], which has been done. Apart from that, the code works quite well.

| :[[User:AlPaD|AlPaD]], thank you for your question. Your understanding of [[Test Wiki:Inactivity policy]] is the same as mine. Specifically, the one-hour rights readdition clause only applies to Stewards and System Administrators, ostensibly chiefly because those roles require a successful community vote at [[Test Wiki:Community portal]]. As to whether someone must wait the standard hold period before readding <code>bureaucrat</code>, I'd say your understanding is also likely correct, but it's also common sense. Provided someone didn't lose their <code>bureaucrat</code> bit for cause or otherwise resign under a cloud of scrutiny, that seems fine. Hope that helps.

For one thing, your account is ''barely'' [[Special:Redirect/logid/29359|two months old]]. ''Account age'', on its own, is not necessarily a prerequisite, but taken together with your [[metawikimedia:Special:CentralAuth/Trayfel|confirmed Wikimedia global account]] having ''only'' ~300 global edits in the past twelve months since it's been created, almost all of which are either (a) userspace sandbox edits and/or (b) counter-vandalism remediation on [[w:Special:Contributions/Trayfel|English Wikipedia]], I am unable to ascertain your overall technical ability. Additionally, and perhaps more crucially, you have '''zero (0)''' patrol log entries on Test Wiki, only '''three (3)''' [[Special:Log/Trayfel|user rights log entries]], one of which was [[Special:Redirect/logid/29954|an incorrect interpretation]] of the [[Test Wiki:Inactivity policy|inactivity policy]] and [[Special:Redirect/logid/29956|correctly overturned]] by [[User:PorkchopGMX|PorkchopGMX]]. Granted, I ''will'' say that [[Test Wiki:Inactivity policy]] is, admittedly, a ''bit'' unclear, but nevertheless, the preceding in a manner the user thought they were ''certain'' they were correct when they were ''not'' is at least a bit problematic. Other than a few test blocks, there's really no other edits and log actions to assess the user's understanding of, and ability to ''apply'', our policies, so I am unable to get any real clear ''sense'' of that. Finally, the user identified wanting to assist MacFan4000 and I with user renames and checking for sockpuppetry. In terms of the former, there have been only '''[[Special:Log/renameuser|fifteen (15) renames]]''' in the preceding six (6) calendar years and, seeing as I have only had to add my <code>checkuser</code> hat in the more than one month since I've been a Steward and since I am also active daily here, in terms of daily review of the community portal, permission requests, and recent changes, I don't feel there's a sufficient rationale here ''either''. It'd ''potentially'' be, ''if'' I had a better sense of the user's technical and policy-based abilities. Finally, I noted that you've only very recently joined our IRC channel, which I'd also like to have seen you be more active as well.

| ::The outcome here is that, yes, [[User:Seiyena|Seiyena]]'s behaviour was indeed inappropriate, and the racially insensitive and homophobic comments also inappropriate, [[User:Kazrok4545|Kazrok4545]]'s [[Special:Redirect/logid/30479|block]] was also inappropriate for a few reasons. Firstly, as it was quite clear at [[Test Wiki:Request permissions]] that this was a [[Test Wiki:Stewards|Steward]]-managed user conduct case, the block was inappropriate. Secondly, administrators here are, fundamentally, non-test administrators. Blocking open proxies, deleting spam, or reverting vandalism is fine, but serious user conduct issues [[rfc:2119|'''must''']] be left to Stewards, unless they've explicitly delegated certain aspects (i.e., my saying that <code>[[Test Wiki:Bureaucrats|bureaucrat]]</code> could be revoked if the conditions were breached, for example). Finally, and philosophically, part of developing good [[Test Wiki:Administrators|administrator]] skills beyond technical capability is developing the diplomatic skills and engaging with users to think of other, creative and, crucially, long-term solutions that are at least somewhat amenable to all. I ''had'' meant to ask [[User:Arcversin|Arcversin]] to import the abuse filter from [[mhtest:|Public Test Wiki]], but my other responsibilities precluded that until now, so I ''do'' take that responsibility for not having done that sooner. Nevertheless, this is the solution I believe is the best. If, after a month or so (from now), it's clear Seiyena needs another time away from Test Wiki, I will make that call. Nevertheless, [[User:Seiyena|Seiyena]], to be clear, you ''can'' curse, though I encourage you ''not'' to. What you '''cannot''' do is make racist, racially insensitive, xenophobic, or homophobic comments. Thus, [[User:Kazrock4545|Kazrock4545]]'s rights revocation is {{Done|endorsed}} by this [[Test Wiki:Stewards|Steward]]. You may re-apply for administrator after a minimum of 5-7 days, if a bureaucrat is satisfied with your good edits and log actions. You may then re-apply for bureaucrat on or after May 1st, again under the same terms. I have added several minor user groups, with a particular emphasis on <code>researcher</code>, which [[rfc:2119|''should'']] allow you review your revision deleted [[Special:DeletedContributions/Seiyena|contributions]] and log actions, to help you understand what you '''cannot''' do here and make good edits. Together with [[User:Arcversin|Arcversin]]'s abuse filter, hopefully this should guide you to constructive editing here. [[User:Dmehus|Dmehus]] ([[User talk:Dmehus|talk]]) 03:50, 12 April 2022 (UTC)

| | Hi. I've been doing some translations lately and was wondering which variant of Chinese to translate to. Currently most pages are translated into regional dialects, such as zh-cn and zh-tw. What I think would be better is to translate only into zh-hans (simplified Chinese) and zh-hant (traditional Chinese) in order to reduce redundancy, as all Chinese dialects use one of the two character systems.
