[usba] Gumagamit: 203.111.235.50

Ipagbibigay-alam ko lamang sa inyo na nilagay na sa blocked list ang gumagamit na si 203.111.235.50 sa Tagalog at Ingles na Wikipedia, dahil sa mapanirang edit tungkol sa mga istasyon. Binibigyan ko rin ng payo at babala ang mga administrador sa Cebuano Wikipedia na harangin (block) din ang tagagamit na ito, dahil karamihan sa mga binubuo niyang artikulo ay puro walang katotohanan. Salamat. - The Wandering Traveler 13:37, 2 Abril 2009 (UTC)

Hi Wandering Traveler, thank you for notifying us here at cebwiki regarding this IP user edits and contribs. As I see it, so far, so good. The IP's contribs are copied directly from enwiki. Still, I'll watch over these TV station articles and others. :=) Jordz 04:05, 3 Abril 2009 (UTC)
Hi Admins. Please look closely to the edits of this anon user. He clearly posts false information, especially to the Philippine TV network articles (among his edits claims that NBN owns all the radio stations of Eagle Broadcasting Corporation; DZEC, DWDM-FM, etc.). Hoping for your swift action. Thanks. -Danngarcia

[usba] Heavy vandalism on several Philippine TV related articles

Hi admins,

Haven't you noticed that this Wikipedia has been bombarded with vandalism in the past few months? Banned users from en.wiki and tl.wiki (User:Lianlaspinas, User:203.111.235.50, and others) have transferred here to make disruptive edits. Please take a look at this example. An anon user had replaced all the GMA's past logos with pictures of Kim Chiu, Charice Pempengco and logos of a Korean TV network. I have alerted an admin here last April regarding the vandalism but it seems that he did not take any actions with the vandals.

I wanted to help but I cannot speak Cebuano. Please, if you want to save the integrity of this wiki, take the necessary actions. Thanks. -Danngarcia

Hi Danngarcia. Thank you for notifying us - short reply: I'm kinda busy these days. If you have the time kindly remove those "heavy vandalism", they're written in English anyway. I will warn these users. Jordz 04:32, 15 Hunyo 2009 (UTC)

These editors/users are now blocked:

Under surveillance are users:

Hi Jordz, I finally created an account here to help in cleaning up. I think you should also block both User:Gabbyshoe and User:203.111.235.50. I have observed his edits on tl.wiki, en.wiki and here and most of them are hoaxes. He moved several Metro Manila TV station articles on their incorrect callsigns. User:203.111.235.50 on the other hand posts obvious hoax information here since he was blocked on both en.wiki and tl.wiki, as I earlier reported. I'll try my best to clean up the mess those vandals created here. Thanks!!! -Danngarcia 14:44, 26 Hunyo 2009 (UTC)

OK, these users are now blocked:

I will make a wikiproject on Philippine TV station articles. Thanks Danngarcia! Jordz 06:08, 2 Hulyo 2009 (UTC)

Hi Jordz, I would like to report the edits done by User:124.105.242.200. This user may be a sockpuppet of the blocked users above. He keeps on readding listcruft information that I have previously removed (List of personalities on a certain TV station). Please assist. Thanks. -Danngarcia 16:22, 4 Hulyo 2009 (UTC)

[usba] IMages inadvertently removed

During a cleanup of images and thumbs on the Wikimedia servers, I inadvertently removed some images which I have not been able to restore. I am very sorry for the trouble. They are all contributed by Gumagamit:Ricardojose20027 (there are 12 of them, all his). It seems that they are unused in any article, but I wanted to let you know. If you need any more information or if I can help in some way, you can find me on irc in the #wikimedia-tech channel, or send email to ariel AT wikimedia DOT org. Thanks, -- ArielGlenn 05:28, 19 Agosto 2009 (UTC)

[usba] Translation of a short story

Hi my friend!

I would like to request something from you. Yes, translation. I hope, it's not a bad thing for you. Some years ago I wrote a (really) short story about a lonely man (actually symbolized the Saami nation). I translated into some languages and I thought, it would be great to have it more, like also in Cebuano :) I made this page, the English or Spanish translation is somewhere there. You can put the Cebuano translation there. Thank you again! Sorry for my disturb... :( - hu:User:Eino81

[usba] Request to block a range of IP addresses

I would like to request for a range block for the IP addresses indicated here. While I understand that indefinite blocks are not allowed, as per Block lengths, I would like to push for the longest possible duration that these blocks can be implemented due to the sheer volume and incessant nature of the vandalism, which has already gone on for months. Given a situation like this we are in now, imposing a range block that would last for only a short while simply isn't going to work. --Angelo 08:08, 13 Septiyembre 2009 (UTC)

Hi, I will not pursue this because a lot of users that use those IP addresses will be prevented from editing. See meta:Help:Range_blocks. For the mean time, only individual IP addresses will be blocked. But after a week or two passes and those anon edits from these IP addresses persists, then indeed a rangeblock will be the last recourse. Jordz 05:39, 15 Septiyembre 2009 (UTC)
Thanks, bay. The plan seems to be working already. --Angelo 09:24, 15 Septiyembre 2009 (UTC)
Thanks Sir Jordz! We will keep on monitoring if that anon comes back again.
On a side note, may I request to delete the articles this anon created (including those who were blocked a few months ago) to discourage them in creating this kind of mess. Thanks again. -Danngarcia 01:32, 16 Septiyembre 2009 (UTC)

[usba] Small request

Hello! I am a Polish wikipedian and I would like to ask you for writing a new article about former Polish President who won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1983 – Lech Wałęsa. I have looked for his article in your Wikipedia but without success. Polish Wikipedians will be grateful for your help. Thank you so much in advance! PS article in English you can find here. Best wishes from Poland, 188.33.87.97 19:54, 21 Septiyembre 2009 (UTC)

My Cebuano isn't all that good so I created a stub article that hopefully will grow over time. I also created the requisite categories. Both our countries--the Philippines and Poland--share a similar recent history in having had to suffer for decades under foreign-backed regimes, and eventually overthrowing them without bloodshed. Cheers to us! --Angelo 09:40, 22 Septiyembre 2009 (UTC)

[usba] The LocalisationUpdate extension has gone live

The LocalisationUpdate extension is now enabled for all Wikimedia projects. From now on new localisations that become available in SVN will become available to your project within 24 hours. Your localisations get into SVN from translatewiki.net typically within a day and at worst in two days. This is a huge improvement from the old practice where the localisations became available with new software. This could take weeks, even months.

The localisations done by our community at translatewiki.net are committed to SVN typically every day. When the system messages in English are the same as the local messages, they will now be inserted in a file and are available for use in all our projects in a timely manner

[usba] What this means for you

Local messages have an impact on the performance of our system. It is best when messages are as much as possible part of the system messages. In order to remove unnecessary duplication, all the messages that have a local localisation and are exactly the same as the system message will be removed. What we ask you to do is to compare and proof read the messages in translatewiki.net and the local messages. You can then either remove local messages when the translatewiki.net message is to be preferred or, you can update the message at translatewiki.net.

Messages that are specific to your project will have to stay as they are. You do want to check if the format and the variables of the message are still the same.

[usba] Why localise at translatewiki.net

When you localise at translatewiki.net, your messages will be used in all Wikimedia projects and eventually in all MediaWiki based projects. This is how we provide the standard support for your language. When messages change, at translatewiki.net you will be prompted to revisit your translations. Localising is more efficient because we have innovated the process to make you more efficient; there is text explaining about messages and we have applied AJAX technology to reduce the number of clicks you have to make.

[usba] Translatewiki.net update

  • Currently 38.77% of the MediaWiki messages and 0.66% of the messages of the extensions used by the Wikimedia Foundation projects have been localised. Please help us help your language by localising and proof reading at translatewiki.net. This is the recent localisation activity for your language. Thanks, GerardM 17:25, 28 Septiyembre 2009 (UTC)
  • PS Please help us complete the most wanted messages..

[usba] How can we improve the usability for your language

We expect that with the implementation of LocalisationUpdate the usability of MediaWiki for your language will improve. We are now ready to look at other aspects of usability for your language as well. There are two questions we would like you to answer: Are there issues with the new functionality of the Usability Initiative Does MediaWiki support your language properly

The best way to answer the first question is to visit the translatewiki.net. Change the language to your language, select the “vector” skin and add the advanced tool bar in in the preferences and check out the new functionality. And make some changes in your user page. When there is a need to improve on the localisation, please make the necessary changess . It should update your localisation straight away. We would like you to report each issue individually at http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Usability_issues.

When there are problems with the support of MediaWiki for your language, we really want to know about this. It is best to report each issue separately. In this way there will be no large mass of issues to resolve but we can address each issue on its own. Consider issues with the display of characters, the presentation of your script, the position of the side bar, the combination of text with other languages, scripts. It is best to try this in an environment like the prototype wiki as it provides you with a clean, basic and up to date environment. The prototype wiki is available for five languages but you can select any of them, change the preferences to your language and test out MediaWiki for your language.

We would like you to report each issue individually at http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Language issues. The issues you raise will all be assessed. It is important to keep each issue separate, because this will make it easier to understand the issues and find solutions.

PS This text has been approved by Naoko, Brion and Siebrand. Thanks, GerardM 17:25, 28 Septiyembre 2009 (UTC)

[usba] Bad Book Spam warning

(My apologies for this message being in English) The vandal General Tojo is spamming Wikipedia by removing references and adding his books as the only reference. The books are nothing more than reprints of out of copyright sources, with spelling errors from the title page on forward (For example it is James McClymont, not MacClymont, and Gaspar Correia, not Correa, and Charles Edwards Lester, not Charles Lester Edwards). This article is one of his targets, please watch for removal of valid references and adding of the spam references by new users or IP's. The books spammed so far are:

  • Magellan (2008) by Francis Guillemard (died 1933), Antonio Pigafetta (died 1534), Francisco Albo (contemporary of Magellan), Gaspar Correa (contemporary of Magellan), Keith Bridgeman (Editor) and Tahira Arsham (Editor); ISBN 978-1906421007
  • Amerigo Vespucci (2009) by Charles Lester Edwards (died 1890), Amerigo Vespucci (died 1512), Keith Bridgeman (Editor) and Tahira Arsham (Editor); ISBN 978-1906421021
  • Pedro Cabral (2009) by James Roxburgh MacClymont (out of copyright author), William Brooks Greenlee (edited around 1939), Pero Vaz de Caminha (died 1500), Keith Bridgeman (Editor), and Tahira Arsham (Editor);ISBN 978-1906421014

Please watch for removal of valid references and replacement with spam, and revert accordingly. As for the identity of the spammer and vandal General Tojo:

  • Keith Bridgeman, London is the editor of all the books spammed by General Tojo
  • Keith Bridgeman, London is the owner of the publishing house publishing the books spammed by General Tojo
  • Keith Bridgeman, London is the owner of some Parkinson's disease patents spammed by General Tojo on Wikipedia for quite a few years now
  • Keith Bridgeman, London is also the owner of the web page advertising both the Parkinson stuff and the books spammed by General Tojo.

For details see en:Wikipedia:Long term abuse/General Tojo -- Chris 73 11:27, 3. Okt. 2009 (CEST)

Hey Chris, thanks for informing us about this. So far, it seems that none of our articles here have been affected. Either way, we'll be keeping watch. --Angelo 07:21, 5 Oktubre 2009 (UTC)

[usba] Translation request

Hi Angelo Piccio! Would you be so kind to help me translate this article into the wonderful Cebuano language? Please. It's about a Chinese philosopher and is listed as one of the articles every Wikipedia should have. If you think that article is too long, here is a short version: "Confucius was a Chinese thinker and social philosopher, whose teachings and philosophy have deeply influenced Chinese, Korean, Japanese and Vietnamese thought and life. His philosophy emphasized personal and governmental morality, correctness of social relationships, justice and sincerity." Thanks a lot! --Amaqqut
