History of Vietnam again
[edit]As I warned you above, this article is classified as an important article and it is also sensitive so it is very vulnerable to vandalism (history has proven). This article has recently continued to be heavily vandalized by not only a sockpuppet account of Phạm Văn Rạng (talk · contribs) but also a sockpuppet account of Sotavino (talk · contribs) (another banned account). I understand Wikipedia's policy is to prioritize ease and openness in editing, however ease and openness with this article only brings negativity and chaos to it rather than contribution. We need to be tough to defend this article. Currently the article is protected at 30/500 until 25 May 2026, however I think we should increase the protection to permanent like the article History of India. 2401:D800:DA1:59EE:2816:2286:31C0:E383 (talk) 00:42, 29 May 2025 (UTC)
- Hi, we tend to be hesitant to idenfinitely protect articles at levels higher than semiprotection due to the number of people it effectively prevents from being able to edit it. History of India, for example, is only indefinitely semiprotected. This is especially the case when it's primarily due to sockpuppetry rather than being random but continuous vandalism. It's got a year of ECP on it so let's see what happens after that especially since it isn't technically possible to indefinitely semiprotect it now as that would remove the higher level of protection.

- I see. Sorry, I was wrong about the protection level for the article History of India! In my opinion, when the protection term for the article History of Vietnam expires (although there is still nearly a year left), this article needs to be semi-protected indefinitely. Thanks for getting back to me! 2401:D800:7E06:A62:9C1E:D84:55D:8983 (talk) 13:05, 29 May 2025 (UTC)

TBAN appeal
[edit]Kind regards. I wanted to notify that I started an appeal on my current TBAN: Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard#Latin American politics TBAN appeal. I don't want to ping editors inappropriately, but I can imagine is courtesy to notify the closing admin and I also linked directly one of your comments last year:[1] Please let me know if you believe that there should be other notifications or if I can make any improvements about the appeal.

[edit]Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.
Updates for editors
- Featured templates, a new feature related to Template Recall and Discovery will be deployed this week to all Wikimedia projects: With this feature, editors will be able to quickly access a list of templates that are likely to be useful. These templates will be displayed in a list, under the "featured" tab of the template discovery interface. Administrators can define the list via the Community Configuration interface. The feature fulfills a request by the community through the Community Wishlist. [2][3]
View all 31 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week. For example, the request to add Malayalam fonts in the Wikisource Book Export Tool was resolved and now, the rendering of Malayalam letters in exported Wikisource books are accurate. [4]
