I don't think Moegirlpedia is a random other wiki though. AFAIK it is the most popular MediaWiki instance in China.

(Off topic) Good task because I have this (meta:User:魔琴/MarkRights/code/global) and I really need local groups data :)

@Winston_Sung What do you think (?

Found this repo zh-lx/pinyin-pro founded in 2020. Looks fine enough. Though there are linguistic errors.

Base 1000 in ref tags, but still cjk-decimal for all numbers in references.

The usecase I described at T409621 is at Chinese Wikinews, not Wikipedia.

Looks like the Paiwan language also use lowercases.

Should French be displayed as français instead? As a speaker of a language whose script lacks capitalization system, I'd say seeing text in lists in sentence case feels weird to me.

Looks like the matter of https://www.w3.org/TR/clreq/#mixed_text_composition_in_vertical_writing_mode. Rotating Han characters would look odd. But rotating mathematics in pure western script would be better?

Thanks. I'll ask local admins to implement this by Grouped References. I'd like to ask that if we want to make this default (instead of using "group=" every time) we have to come back and file another request, right?

@Aklapper There are some information on Chinese Wikipedia: zh:千字文#千字文编号法.

Special:GlobalPreferences is not (and not likely to be) language-specific. And it would be quite a challenge for volunteers on translatewiki.net to consider all the possible inputs. 魔琴 (talk) 04:58, 10 June 2025 (UTC)

It looks like that both vertical-lr and vertical-rl just rotate mathematics by 90 degrees. So we just rotate the sigma icon by 90 degrees.

Looks like T43716

GFW is an injector, it cannot stop or change the authoritative server's packet, it also has no direct control of ISP's recursive resolver.

Recent days, WMF somehow changed their GeoDNS so that requests from China would get a not yet blocked IPv4 address.

I have to mention that on Oct 1 WMF projects were resolved back to the blocked servers in San Francisco (ulsfo) with the IPv4 address 198.35.26.96.

This temporary change of IPs was incidental due to operational failover because of hardware failure. If we tried this as a strategy, we have limited public IPs we own and they'd just block them all over time. We do have long-term aims to mitigate these censorship issues properly, even for the browser users rather than just the app, but those plans take time, and we can't discuss them in public so far ahead of implementation.

Should use -Hans and -Hant in consistant with other Chinese topolects.

对不起我看到T354937的comment了

Wouldn't -poj and -tl be better?

Does this mean [[MOS:]] would be broken?

The discussion on zhwiki was archived (here) with no consensus. Major oppositions include security issuses of the portal and its users.

Occasion 1 and 2 can be merged — Users currently not using Flow would not have it listed Beta Features. For occasion 3, if I turn it off momentarily, I would fall into the 2nd category and thus cannot have it turned on again.

Note that there are usually no spaces between characters in Chinese and Japanese scripts.

I checked my friend's App Store and to my surprise the Wikipedia app do exist on China store. F-Droid is not blocked, at least not in my region.

Some volunteers (including me) are concerned about the anti-vandalism issue, Is it possible for this kind of system to allocate administrators to confront abuse? Stewards and CUers(? no CUers on zhwiki haha) should have the ability to check if an IP (range) is abused and block it if necessary. Just think about those sensitive data...

Is the Wikipedia app is available on Apple's App Store? (My iPad region is US so I cannot check it out.) Google Play is blocked. And I don't think the app exists on the app stores Android phone manufacturers provides us with.

And I'm not sure how this affects GIPBE.

Yes, at least consensus must be reached on zhwiki. Also, maybe we need a meta RfC to gather information from Iran and other countries. Plus, auto granting IPBE's may affect how stewards handle GIPBE requests, so it's, in a way, a global issue.

Isn't this all about granting automatic IPBE for open proxies' users from China?

The verification process relys on the user's real IP.

[...] granting automatic IPBE to Chinese users seems like... not the greatest of ideas

If we were to do this:

As I have said in T336159, .uls-dialog-sticky-hide #vector-sticky-header { display: none; } should solve the problem. I was testing the new Vector skin these days and got "clickjacked" for, like, three times. Hard to imagine how many editors are affected by this.

And do ensure that after you open the Developer Tools the screen width should be at least 1000px, or you won't see the ghost buttons.

There are several problems unresolved on zhwiki. Though I remain neutral to the change, I do strongly oppose switching the default skin right away.

I prefer Miraheze-style private wiki. There should be lots of users who have the right to have access to the wiki, and this approach is easier for managing accounts.
