Invitation to functionaries meeting
Hello,
This is an invitation to an upcoming meeting among arbitration committee members, functionaries, administrators, and community members of all projects to discuss the implementation and community ratification or approval of the outlined enforcement pathways for the Universal Code of Conduct. The meeting is scheduled for 7 October 2021 18:00 UTC.
Please see here for further details and to respond. Those unable to attend can participate in other formats.
Let me know if you have any questions. Xeno (WMF) (talk) 16:44, 1 October 2021 (UTC)
Effect of Apple’s iCloud Private Relay
Hello!
Communities typically block edits from IP addresses that obscure individual users. Usually, it has been about “open proxies” or virtual private networks (VPNs). Now, there's a new Apple service called iCloud Private Relay that obscures the IP addresses of desktop and mobile users of the Safari browser.
As Apple users adopt this new service, we estimate that 3-5% of all logged-in and logged-out editors will have these obscured IP addresses. If we don't change anything, they may be blocked within a few months. This wiki may be severely affected. A lot of people editing here use the Safari browser. Next, other browser providers may do the same. The problem will grow.
The communities, users with advanced MediaWiki permissions, the Wikimedia Foundation and others need to work together. We all need to decide how the security of the wikis can be maintained. At the same time, the pathways to editing should remain open for all good-faith participants.
Read more on Apple iCloud Private Relay. Answer the questions and comment on its talk page.
Thank you!

Block on eowikt and suppressed communication
I do not think that removing messages from one's talk page is good practice, and it maybe even violates the relevant policy:
- > Communication
- > Global sysops must have user pages on every wiki they use their global sysop
- > access on, which provides contact information or links to their primary user page
- > (creation bot available currently). Generally a global user page on Meta will cover
- > that requirement, and those users are asked to include a Babel declaration.
- > For urgent help from a global sysop, join the IRC channel #wikimedia-gsconnect and
- > type !gs in the channel to get the attention of global sysops.
- > If a user cannot resolve a dispute by talking to the global sysop, they
- > can place a complaint on Talk:Global sysops, or contact any steward.
- > Global sysops may contact each other via the private mailing list.
I appeal the block, and complain about user and GS Billinghurst suppressing communication. Please unblock my bot, and resolve the copyright infringements on eo wikt. Taylor 49 (talk) 20:11, 12 December 2021 (UTC)
- @Taylor 49: I have pointed you to the places to have conversations about eowikt, and you bring your bickering to my talk page on metawiki. The edit summary that I used when removing that post was pretty clear, and the revert is in no way violating policy. The post can still be read in the history for anyone to see. Nothing has been suppressed. I have a global user page.
When I blocked your bot, I left you a message wikt:eo:special:diff/1017984. Bots operate under a consensus of the community, and the acts that you were undertaking do not have a consensus of the community. In fact at most places, using a bot to mark pages for deletion would be considered completely contentious. Have you undertaken the actions? If not, what are you doing here complaining about me? Get your house in order. — billinghurst sDrewth 13:15, 13 December 2021 (UTC)
