Request for MassMessage right

I am an editor-in-chief of the Signpost on the English Wikipedia, which has a global MassMessage delivery list. However, I am unable to send it to this list, since I lack the MassMessage permission on Meta. Can I be given this? JPxG (talk) 21:42, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

@JPxG I'm assuming this is the list you are referring to: Global message delivery/Targets/Signpost. Do you understand things that you may have to do differently when sending a gmms vs a local mms? Do you have a procedure to follow for that? — xaosflux ^Talk 22:35, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

@Xaosflux Seems they have been granted in the past by @Martin Urbanec and had used the rights I presume without trouble, I think it's safe to extend? Camouflaged Mirage (talk) 11:19, 2 September 2022 (UTC)

@Camouflaged Mirage: thanks for the note, seems good. — xaosflux ^Talk 12:30, 2 September 2022 (UTC)

This page needs protection

I am asking for this page to be protected, as it's been a recent target for Phnom Penh Skyline socks. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 19:04, 11 September 2022 (UTC)

Also because I'm sick and tired of having to revert this guy over and over again. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 19:08, 11 September 2022 (UTC)

@DarkMatterMan4500: (a) there is nothing meta-wiki admins can do about edits on kmwiki; (b) kmwiki has multiple admins (see w:km:Special:ListUsers/sysop) that could deal with their issues. If they are unresponsive, you could also try to ask the stewards over at Steward requests/Miscellaneous. — xaosflux ^Talk 02:54, 12 September 2022 (UTC)

AutoLink gadget causes some diffs to be displayed incorrectly

See phab:T316977. I have no idea where to report such issues on Meta so I am posting it here. I have left a message on the author's talk page but they seem to be inactive. --jdx ^Re: 03:45, 4 September 2022 (UTC)

@Jdx: Its more a enwiki user script than a metawiki gadget so I think you should report it at en:User talk:Lenore/autolink, but it won't a worth because the author is inactive since 2016. Perhaps someone may help you at en:WP:IANB which is not recommended as well because its an individual user script. Finally, I have a solution for it. I can import all the code from the user script with appropriate credit on the summary and page itself. And then if you or someone else can let me know which code to be replaced on what line of the script, I can hopefully do this. I am open to help.

Meta admins cannot interfere in the affairs of another project. All this needs to be decided in the project to which it concerns. EnWt and EnWiki have local admins and checkusers, this should be discussed with them, not here. Mykola 21:44, 14 September 2022 (UTC)

But even that account previously blocked through Meta-Wiki via one of his static IPs, it is impossible to do so? (Peach Peachy (talk) 21:48, 14 September 2022 (UTC))

Wiktionarian89 has no any contribution here on Meta. Mykola 21:51, 14 September 2022 (UTC)

He did through this IP 24.113.149.242, you can see both IP and account are vandalising articles related to the [ms] (Malay) language (Peach Peachy (talk) 21:53, 14 September 2022 (UTC))

I don't see any connection and reason why I should block this user here. Of course, if you have some solid evidence that this user is indeed an anonymous vandal here, you can request a Checkuser check. But the evidence must be really convincing. Mykola 22:00, 14 September 2022 (UTC)

@Mykola7: May I know where I can report these user's accounts and IPs altogether? because I can't go one by one to each Wiki because he did crosswiki vandalism, and actually I found some of his accounts. (Peach Peachy (talk) 22:10, 14 September 2022 (UTC))

In each project where are local checkusers, this must be requested there locally. Where there are no local checkusers, you can give to stewards. Mykola 22:17, 14 September 2022 (UTC)

Edits of said user is likely to be machine translations and I'd like to kindly request another admin to go through the remaining edits to determine whether they should be kept --Minorax^«¦talk¦» 11:33, 26 September 2022 (UTC)

I'd like to add that said user created pages within seconds of each other and is such editing behaviour is only possible with the aid of translation engines. --Minorax^«¦talk¦» 11:36, 26 September 2022 (UTC)

@Minorax: it looks like this user knows a lot of languages (I've seen them doing translations into Tamil, Finnish, Italian, Kinyarwanda, French, Spanish). I have asked for a second opinion on the translations into Tamil. Daniuu (talk) 22:54, 30 September 2022 (UTC)

Doing... - some additional checks showed that a significant part of the translations showed rather strong resemblance to the output of Google Translate. I will remove them. Daniuu (talk) 18:28, 1 October 2022 (UTC)

I've nuked a first batch and will look further tomorrow. Daniuu (talk) 23:53, 1 October 2022 (UTC)

@Minorax: I just nuked a second batch, so this should be fine Done now. Daniuu (talk) 19:43, 5 October 2022 (UTC)
