Earlier this year, the Editing team ran a large study of the Reply Tool. The main goal was to find out whether the Reply Tool helped newer editors communicate on wiki. The second goal was to see whether the comments that newer editors made using the tool needed to be reverted more frequently than comments newer editors made with the existing wikitext page editor.
The key results were:
These results give the Editing team confidence that the tool is helpful.
Looking ahead
The team is planning to make the Reply tool available to everyone as an opt-out preference in the coming months. This has already happened at the Arabic, Czech, and Hungarian Wikipedias.
The next step is to resolve a technical challenge. Then, they will deploy the Reply tool first to the Wikipedias that participated in the study. After that, they will deploy it, in stages, to the other Wikipedias and all WMF-hosted wikis.
You can turn on "Discussion Tools" in Beta Features now. After you get the Reply tool, you can change your preferences at any time in Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-editing-discussion.

Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Julio and Marisol you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of Some Dude From North Carolina -- Some Dude From North Carolina ( talk) 14:41, 16 June 2021 (UTC)
The article Julio and Marisol you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needing to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass; otherwise it may fail. See Talk:Julio and Marisol for issues which need to be addressed. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of Some Dude From North Carolina -- Some Dude From North Carolina ( talk) 20:21, 17 June 2021 (UTC)
The article Julio and Marisol you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Julio and Marisol for comments about the article. Well done! If the article has not already appeared on the main page as a "Did you know" item, or as a bold link under "In the News" or in the "On This Day" prose section, you can nominate it within the next seven days to appear in DYK. Bolded names with dates listed at the bottom of the "On This Day" column do not affect DYK eligibility.

Hey friend I love scary movies I was thinking since there's already a 1890s–1910s section on
horror film I was wandering if you could unmerge the 1970s–1980s and make a 1970s section and 1980s section to horror film like normal even decades like most of the decades are on there it would look a lot better on the
horror film article if all the decade sections look like this
1890s–1910s
1920s
1930s
1940s
1950s
1960s
1970s
1980s

Hi, I was wondering when the restriction on the Thank U, Next album page would end. I've been meaning to add things to it and it's been restricted for a while now. I've always added information to Ariana's album pages, and have familiarized myself with Wikipedia guidelines and would never perform vandalism on it.
Thanks. Blowscalls ( talk) 18:48, 29 June 2021 (UTC)
Alright. I've added a suggestion at the talk page and have been ignored. An editor recently removed "widespread critical acclaim" and replaced "praise" with "compliments", and with no edit summary. Blowscalls ( talk) 20:55, 29 June 2021 (UTC)

Hey Roy Smith, so in 2019 I created a page for myself on Wiki. I did this because I didn't fully understand the dynamics of Wiki and over the past few years I think I have realized a lot and attempting to create my own wiki page has been a positive influences on my art career. Yes I know that I did it wrong. At times I was very wrong and that I screwed up - I may never get a page on Wikipedia.
I did try to create my page one last time and I really believe I meet the criteria now. I have a few article under the google news tab, I have two pieces in the Meridian Museum of Art's permanent collection, and I have worked with big name musicians from around the United States. Let me know what you think of the article that is here Anthony Sims (artist).
I know this has been a long journey for me and I appreciate everyone at Wikipedia teaching me what credibility actually is. I have fully disclosed my COI and I am requesting you with all the information you have to make your best judgement. Thank you Reedjudge ( talk) 17:18, 30 June 2021 (UTC)

Since Unlikely seems to be the most mysterious CU code out there and you pinged me on one where I returned it, I'll give you my breakdown of what the various symbols mean when I use them:
I think my style and usage is pretty similar to KrakatoaKatie's. Ponyo might be a bit different, but she and I also tend to reach similar conclusions (and she's da best.) Anyway, you tend to ask good questions as a clerk, so I thought this might be helpful for you at least in terms of interpreting what I mean :) TonyBallioni ( talk) 02:45, 30 June 2021 (UTC)

Hello RoySmith, is Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/UnderArmourKid/Archive really meant to be a redirect page to the archive/1 or is that a mistake? The effect of the redirect is that the current archive is only accessible with &redirect=no added to the end of the URL. Best, Pahunkat ( talk) 09:57, 3 July 2021 (UTC)

Hi, I was going to file a SPI report, but since the user involved is a newbie, I would like a SPI clerk to take a look and see if the evidence collected is worth a SPI. If/when time permits, can you take a look at the evidence below? I think that ElderZamzam (EZ) is a sock of TryDeletingMe (DM). Two years ago I reported DM's previous sock, ThreatMatrix (TM).
Hi, I'm not certain if is an issue or not, but I noticed you were involved with this sock puppet investigation here. This IP might still be active: Special:Contributions/147.226.103.110. I have reason to believe that IP is TheLawGiverOfDFT editor. They both edit at the same times, they write in the same style, and that IP seems to be very deeply involved in the same matters that motivate TheLawGiverOfDFT. I'm not certain if that matter has been taken of or not; if has not been, should an investigation be opened? Thank you for your time and help, and I hope all is with you. -- A.S. Brown ( talk) 07:20, 21 July 2021 (UTC)

Hi, I was going to file a SPI report, but since the user involved is a newbie, I would like a SPI clerk to take a look and see if the evidence collected is worth a SPI. If/when time permits, can you take a look at the evidence below? I think that ElderZamzam (EZ) is a sock of TryDeletingMe (DM). Two years ago I reported DM's previous sock, ThreatMatrix (TM).
Hi, I'm not certain if is an issue or not, but I noticed you were involved with this sock puppet investigation here. This IP might still be active: Special:Contributions/147.226.103.110. I have reason to believe that IP is TheLawGiverOfDFT editor. They both edit at the same times, they write in the same style, and that IP seems to be very deeply involved in the same matters that motivate TheLawGiverOfDFT. I'm not certain if that matter has been taken of or not; if has not been, should an investigation be opened? Thank you for your time and help, and I hope all is with you. -- A.S.

Hi Roy. For your excellent work at SPI, including dealing with blocks, page-locks and socks! Thank you very much. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 17:51, 21 July 2021 (UTC) |
Hi Roy, I just blocked an IP that is part of a range of IPs that you partially blocked. My block of the single IP expires before yours. Does the range block take over at the expiration? I'm not very experienced with partial blocks.-- Bbb23 ( talk) 18:39, 22 July 2021 (UTC)

Hi RoySmith! Since you're an SPI Clerk, I was wondering if you think it would be appropriate to put an unconfirmed sock tag on User:CutePeach. They were suspected earlier this year and have also been accused of being a sock in the current ongoing Arbitration report about them. –– FORMALDUDE( talk) 22:09, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

This is a neutral notice sent to all non-bot/non-blocked registered users who edited Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Linguistics in the past year that there is a new request for comment at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Linguistics § RfC: Where should so-called voiceless approximants be covered?.

Just wanted to drop by and say kudos for this close. Sometimes the outcome that best reflects the general consensus or feel of a debate isn't one which is readily obvious in bolded letters, and I 100% agree with your choice & rationale here. (I read through this DRV about three times in the past three days, and couldn't work out the best way to close it - mainly because I didn't think of this option!)
