AmandaNP is on wikibreak due to a bunch of non-wiki tasks overflowing the inbox. She will return in due course, but there is no set time right now. |

Userpage edit request
[edit]Hi Amanda,
I would love to thank you for your work being an oversight, checkuser and steward. Since you no longer hold these rights, could you please update your userpage accordingly? I also note that I've been on wikibreak since late-2024. JuniperChill (talk) 19:25, 25 June 2025 (UTC)
- This misinformation that I forgot to translate from meta at my point of stepping down has now been corrected. -- Amanda (she/her) 02:08, 26 June 2025 (UTC)
- Ok, thank you Amanda. JuniperChill (talk) 14:02, 26 June 2025 (UTC)

Weekly highlight
- The CampaignEvents extension has been enabled on all Wikipedias. The extension makes it easier to organize and participate in collaborative activities, like edit-a-thons and WikiProjects, on the wikis. The extension has three features: Event Registration, Collaboration List, and Invitation List. To request the extension for your wiki, visit the Deployment information page.
Updates for editors
- AbuseFilter maintainers can now match against IP reputation data in AbuseFilters. IP reputation data is information about the proxies and VPNs associated with the user's IP address. This data is not shown publicly and is not generated for actions performed by registered accounts. [1]
- Hidden content that is within collapsible parts of wikipages will now be revealed when someone searches the page using the web browser's "Find in page" function (Ctrl+F or ⌘F) in supporting browsers. [2][3]
A new feature, called Favourite Templates, will be deployed later this week on all projects (except English Wikipedia, which will receive the feature next week), following a piloting phase on Polish and Arabic Wikipedia, and Italian and English Wikisource. The feature will provide a better way for new and experienced contributors to recall and discover templates via the template dialog, by allowing users to put templates on a special "favourite list". The feature works with both the visual editor and the wikitext editor. The feature is a community wishlist focus area.
View all 31 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week. For example, a bug was fixed that had caused some Notifications to be sent multiple times. [4]
