The winner this Translation of the week is Please be bold and help to translation this article!  The Tepexpan Man is a Pre-Columbian-era woman skeleton, discovered by archaeologist Helmut de Terra in February 1947, on the shores of the former Lake Texcoco in central Mexico. The skeleton was found near mammoth remains and thought to be at least 10,000 years old. It was fancifully hailed by Time magazine as the oldest Mexican soldier. The skeleton was found lying face down with the arms under the chest and the legs drawn up to the stomach. The body most likely sunk into the mud surrounding it, leaving the shoulder, back, and hips exposed, which might explain why those elements are missing. It is possible that the body was originally deposited in the lake.

The winner this Translation of the week is Please be bold and help to translation this article! The 2001 Kunlun earthquake also known as the 2001 Kokoxili earthquake, occurred on 14 November 2001 at 09:26 UTC (17:26 local time), with an epicenter near Kokoxili, close to the border between Qinghai and Xinjiang in a remote mountainous region. With a magnitude of 7.8 Mw it was the most powerful earthquake in China for 5 decades. No casualties were reported, presumably due to the very low population density and the lack of high-rise buildings. This earthquake was associated with the longest surface rupture ever recorded on land, ~450 km (Please update the interwiki links on Wikidata of your language version of the article after each week's translation is finished so that all languages are linked to each other.)

The winner this Translation of the week is Please be bold and help to translation this article!  The acids in wine are an important component in both winemaking and the finished product of wine. They are present in both grapes and wine, having direct influences on the color, balance and taste of the wine as well as the growth and vitality of yeast during fermentation and protecting the wine from bacteria. During the course of winemaking and in the finished wines, acetic, butyric, lactic and succinic acids can play significant roles. Most of the acids involved with wine are fixed acids with the notable exception of acetic acid, mostly found in vinegar, which is volatile and can contribute to the wine fault known as volatile acidity. Sometimes, additional acids, such as ascorbic, sorbic and sulfurous acids, are used in winemaking.

Norwegian Wikibooks
Hi! I’ve noticed your recent global-sysop action on norwegian wikibooks. It’s a quiet place, but I’m doing some work now and again. May I use your services if I’m ever in need of administrative help? I think no admin’s rights have been granted for a few years now. -- Abuluntu ( talk) 08:51, 19 January 2021 (UTC)

- @Minorax: Thanks! One thing I believe is killing the project is clutter from years back. Help articles and guidelines are ancient. 5 administrators have left the building years ago, and restricted editing of their user pages without removing the category on their page claming to be administrators. I´m the only contributor there as far back as the recent changes list can tell. Is it OK to grant admin tools to me? -- Abuluntu ( talk) 07:02, 20 January 2021 (UTC)

Did you read my mind? $) I already wanted (and even tryed) to add today that tag to Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees/Call for feedback: Community Board seats/Conversations/2021-02-02 - First Office Hour but as I'm not administrator (not sure would that work) and as that somewhy don't work with multilines (I tried to add to make it "over" users who signed list, but it somewhy failed to process it as a variable while preview) I cancelled my edits. Can you help me to add (and process for it to be applied via translations) a variables list1, list2 and list3 to a page for it to look some way as:
* --usersignup * --usersignup * --usersignup <translate> * <your name above> </translate>
or somethinbg like (for tvar to work with llst multilines) that for "your name [here]above" (maybe to join with below it translation section instead of creating a separate one) could be translated too and list would be dynamically updated that way? 3 times (as 3 lists there). Thank you in advance. 195.138.78.6 19:49, 3 February 2021 (UTC)

Global watchlist - Update 8
Updates associated with DannyS712's Global watchlist script and the Global watchlist extension:
As I noted in the last issue, I received a grant from the WMF to develop the global watchlist script into an extension. That extension has now been deployed on Meta. Visit m:Special:GlobalWatchlistSettings to get started.
I do not plan on any further developments being made to the user script. I have released version 9.1.0 to both the dev and stable versions, which includes a notification about the extension being available when you use the user script. You can dismiss the notification, and the script still works, but it will no longer be maintained.
Those interested in providing feedback for the extension should use the phabricator board, phabricator:tag/mediawiki-extensions-globalwatchlist. Any bug reports about the extension should be filed there.
This will likely be the last update sent to this list.
Thanks, --DannyS712 (talk) 19:42, 17 February 2021 (UTC)

The winner this Translation of the week is Please be bold and help to translation this article!  Jatindra Mohan Sengupta (1885 – 1933) was an Indian revolutionary against the British rule. He studied law at Downing College, Cambridge, UK. In India, he started a legal practice. He also joined in Indian politics, becoming a member of the Indian National Congress and participating in the Non-Cooperation Movement. Eventually, he gave up his legal practice in favour of his political commitment. He was arrested several times by the British police. In 1933, he died in a prison in Ranchi, India. Because of his popularity and contribution to the Indian freedom movement, Jatindra Mohan Sengupta is affectionately remembered by people of Bengal with the honorific Deshpriya or Deshapriya, meaning "beloved of the country". In many criminal cases he defended the nationalist revolutionaries in the court and saved them from the gallows. In 1985, a postal stamp was issued by the Indian Government in memory of Sengupta and his wife, Nellie.

From your translation edit in Translations:Wikimedia_Foundation/4/th (page that I watched it since last edit by me) I have found that your last edit is unnormal to me (adding "!!FUZZY!!" which is not any template or any make-sense Media-Wiki code), also without understandable edit description, however seem to be little make-sense edit.
