Dear tech ambassadors, instead of spamming the Village Pump of each Wikipedia about my tiny project proposal for researching team editing (see here:https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:IdeaLab/Research_team_editing), I have decided to leave to your own discretion if the matter is relevant enough to inform a wider audience already. I would appreciate if you could appraise if the Wikipedia community you are more familiar with could have interest in testing group editing "on their own grounds" and with their own guidance. In a nutshell: it consists in editing pages as a group instead of as an individual. This social experiment might involve redefining some aspects of the workflow we are all used to, with the hope of creating a more friendly and collaborative environment since editing under a group umbrella creates less social exposure than traditional "individual editing". I send you this message also as a proof that the Inspire Campaign is already gearing up. As said I would appreciate of *you* just a comment on the talk page/endorsement of myproject noting your general perception about the idea. Nothing else. Your contribution helps to shape the future! (which I hope it will be very bright, with colors, and Wikipedia everywhere) Regards fromUser:Micru on meta.

So, I ended up here:User:The Anome/NHRP detaggables because of this redirect,Skeleton Cave Massacre Site. I recently createdSkeleton Cave (Arizona), and when I was linking other pages to the article, I found the detaggables page. In scanning your list, I came acrossWork, John, House and Mill Site which I then linked toJohn Work House and Mill Site which has existed since 2006.
It occurred to me that there may be a number of pages already in existence, but since they are not formatted the same as what's on this page, they aren't being identified as being done. I'm trying to think on how to solve this problem. --evrik (talk)
The articlePunk Bunny Coffee has beenproposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Whack!
You've beenwhacked with a wet trout.
Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know that you did something silly.Hi The Anome. Thank you for your work onCentre for a Better Britain. Another editor,Klbrain, has reviewed it as part ofnew pages patrol and left the following comment:
A relatively new 'think tank', but one that has hit the headlines in UK national politics through its links to Reform.
To reply, leave a comment here and begin it with{{Re|Klbrain}}.(Message delivered via thePage Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.)

Hi, great to see you are still here The Anome, it's been a while! A prolific userWarofdreams has created a lot of new entries on landmarks in North Yorkshire, England which need coordinates. Can you add {{coord missing}} template to the articles you create from now on Warofdreams, and can you somehow use the Anomebot to add them to his ones done to date? ♦Dr. Blofeld13:35, 31 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! Sorry to bother you but there's a TA that's been spamming the Teahouse with random questions - it looks like they're originallySpecial:Contributions/~2025-43053-85 and are now back asSpecial:Contributions/~2026-37960-3. A quarter of the Teahouse questions are from them!
Are you please able to block them? I'm not sure if it's worthy of an SPI since they're so obvious...
If you think it does need an SPI then please let me know, thanks again!Blue Sonnet (talk)12:04, 5 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Logged-in contributors who manage large or complex watchlists can now organise and filter watched pages in ways that improve their workflows with the newWatchlist labels feature. By adding custom labels (for example: pages you created, pages being monitored for vandalism, or discussion pages) users can more quickly identify what needs attention, reduce cognitive load, and respond more efficiently. This improves watchlist usability, especially for highly active editors.{{#isbn}} available to replace the basic functionality of the ISBN magic link. This makes it easier for wikis who wish to migrate off of the deprecated magic link functionality to do so.[18] View all 23 community-submitted tasks that wereresolved last week.Updates for technical contributors

The articleInstitut de microbiologie et des maladies infectieuses has beenproposed for deletion because of the following concern:
INSERM has many such "institutes", many of them not notable. The first result of a Google search for "Institut de microbiologie et des maladies infectieuses" is this substub. All other results are in-passing mentions, nothing in depthabout the institute. I don"t see how this meetsWP:GNG (or any other guideline).
