Leeds Wikipedia meetup on Saturday 4th May edit
Hello there! Interested in having a chat with fellow Wikipedians? There's a meetup in Leeds on Saturday 4th May 2024, at the Tiled Hall Café at Leeds Central Library.
You're receiving this one-off message as you're either a member of WikiProject Yorkshire, you've expressed an interest in a previous Leeds meetup years ago, or (for about 4 of you), we've met :)
I plan to organise more in future, so if you'd like to be notified next time, please say so over on the meetup page.
Please also invite any Wikimedia people you know (or have had wiki dealings with) – spread the word! Hope to see you there.

Range block on corporate web gateway software edit
Hi,
There is now a block that appears to be a recent addition, on the address range 161.69.0.0/16, that affects even non-anonymous editors. Not sure why I haven't encountered it until today, as the culprit seems to be our company's use of McAfee Web Gateway Cloud Service, which has been deployed for quite awhile, and cannot be turned off by end users on their systems.
Since I use all my "good" computers for work-from-home, I am required to have the software installed on those computers, and again: can't be turned off. So if choose to edit (off the company clock, I hasten to add), I now have to resort to my broken-down, tiny-screened, 5-minute-battery life laptop that does not have WGCS installed.
Yes, this is the classic definition of a first-world problem. But still.
Is there any way to have this ban not affect logged-in users? I'm also curious if this only affects my company (AMD), or if it's endemic to any company deploying WGCS. Regards, NapoliRoma (talk) 01:38, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
- @NapoliRoma. I understand. I’ve amended the block to enable logged in users to edit. Malcolmxl5 (talk) 12:42, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you! --NapoliRoma (talk) 16:39, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
Could you help me with this IP? edit
They will not stop vandalizing this article. Kingsmasher678 (talk) 01:30, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
- I’ve blocked them for now. Report again if they resume vandalising after the block expires. -- Malcolmxl5 (talk) 01:53, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks, I really appreciate it. Kingsmasher678 (talk) 01:58, 30 April 2024 (UTC)

Administrators' newsletter – May 2024 edit
News and updates for administrators from the past month (April 2024).
Guideline and policy news
- Phase I of the 2024 requests for adminship review has concluded. Several proposals have passed outright and will proceed to implementation, including creating a discussion-only period (3b) and administrator elections (13) on a trial basis.

Proposals passed on a trial basis will be discussed in Phase II, after their trials conclude. Further details on specific proposals can be found in the full report.
Technical news

Arbitration
- The arbitration case Conflict of interest management has been closed.
Miscellaneous
- This may be a good time to reach out to potential nominees to ask if they would consider an RfA.

Request for some metadata about Donovan Slacks edit
Hi, you deleted Donovan Slacks as the close of my AFD nomination. I realized that I think it may qualify as the longest hoax in Wikipedia since it, near as I can tell, was always written as if Slacks was a real person and then was modified to be as-if they just happened to make a movie about him (I think that's hoax-y enough?). I'm just asking, if it's available, the date it was originally created and the final byte count of the article? (I don't think that info is available to non-admins.) I doubt showing the article as a subpage there would be useful but that may be my lack of experience there. Thanks! Skynxnex (talk) 13:35, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
- Hi. It was created at 18:01, 2 November 2004, and the final byte count (excluding your AFD nomination tag) was 1,478 bytes. -- Malcolmxl5 (talk) 13:53, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
