Comments

[edit source]

This template uses section transclusion to automatically show the comments from Wikipedia talk:Wikipedia Signpost/Newsroom. This corresponds to the task name, so that e.g. "News and Notes" will try to transclude Wikipedia talk:Wikipedia Signpost/Newsroom#News and notes. If there's no section, you can create one at that title on the talk page and it will show up.

  1. WikiProject United States' 20,000 Challenge just passed the ten year mark and is going strong. Since I'm a participant I would prefer someone else to evaluate whether it is newsworthy. ☆ Bri (talk) 20:36, 2 November 2026 (UTC)reply
    1. FYI Bri I have boldly retitled and reformatted this section to align it with the upcoming N&N. ༄ᨒ𖠰 Pine (✉) 05:32, 3 November 2026 (UTC)reply
       Done Oltrepier (talk) 13:51, 14 November 2026 (UTC)reply
  2. Wikidata's birthday may be worth covering, as mentioned above by Oltrepier. ༄ᨒ𖠰 Pine (✉) 05:32, 3 November 2026 (UTC)reply
  3. I'll also throw in a brief article about a recent controversy over at the Italian Wikipedia, which includes a couple of new bans (for different reasons) and has needed intervention from the local ArbCom. More to come soon. Oltrepier (talk) 21:12, 6 November 2026 (UTC)reply
  4. @Oltrepier and Bri: would one of you please mention the upcoming Wikimedia Café session in the Notes section of N&N? A description provided by me is in this diff. Thanks, ༄ᨒ𖠰 Pine (✉) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pine (talk • contribs) 00:49, 12 November 2026 (UTC)reply
     Done I've added this last night! I'll try to work on the rest of the column now. : ) Oltrepier (talk) 13:35, 14 November 2026 (UTC)reply
  5. Apparently, a Russian tribunal has fined the Wikimedia Foundation (once more) for refusing to censor its content and spreading "LGBT propaganda". Smallbones Is anybody able to verify this? Oltrepier (talk) 20:35, 13 November 2026 (UTC)reply
  6. Can someone do a short write-up on the ACE disqualification debacle? I'd write it myself but I think I might be a bit too involved in this one. QuicoleJR (talk|edits) 17:10, 14 November 2026 (UTC)reply

Who does what

[edit source]
  1. Perhaps Oltrepier could cover the United States 20,000 challenge if Oltrepier thinks that it's newsworthy, and Bri could cover Wikidata's birthday. What do you both think? ༄ᨒ𖠰 Pine (✉) 05:32, 3 November 2026 (UTC)reply
    @Pine Sounds good to me! Oltrepier (talk) 12:42, 3 November 2026 (UTC)reply
 Done got the Wikidata birthday item ☆ Bri (talk) 22:41, 3 November 2026 (UTC)reply
