== Old links ==

@[[User:GVarnum-WMF|GVarnum-WMF]], projects in other languages ​​use the old links [[:fr:]] [[:es:]] [[:ru:]] [[:ja:]]... Chinese Wikipedia [[:zh:]] refers to the English version, not the [[Policy:Privacy policy/zh|Chinese translation]] [[User:Psauopf|Psauopf]] ([[User talk:Psauopf|talk]]) 11:43, 29 May 2023 (UTC)

:Thank you @[[User:Psauopf|Psauopf]] for the notice. There is a [[Phab:T331680|Phabricator ticket]] underway to address where wikis pull their links from for their footer. However, each wiki can override and set their own links, and it will take a little time to check and update all ~900 wikis within our ecosystem. --[[User:GVarnum-WMF|Gregory Varnum (Wikimedia Foundation) [he/him]]] ([[User talk:GVarnum-WMF|talk]]) 06:51, 1 June 2023 (UTC)

== Seemingly unintentional redlink ==

{{edit request|answered=yes}}
Hello - it appears that there is a redlink under the [[Policy:Privacy policy#Account Information & Registration|Account Information & Registration]] section, hidden within the "More on Usernames" box. It seems to me that this is almost certainly unintentional, though I am not sure exactly where it should point. [[User:Tollens|Tollens]] ([[User talk:Tollens|talk]]) 23:19, 2 October 2023 (UTC)

:@[[User:Tollens|Tollens]]: This has been fixed - thank you for the ping! --[[User:GVarnum-WMF|Gregory Varnum (Wikimedia Foundation) [he/him]]] ([[User talk:GVarnum-WMF|talk]]) 23:13, 5 October 2023 (UTC)

== Semi-protection ==

This page has reached the point where I would normally consider requesting it be semi-protected due to excessive vandalism. Do WMF staff watching this agree? [[User:Pppery|Pppery]] ([[User talk:Pppery|talk]]) 17:17, 7 October 2023 (UTC)

:Perhaps also semi-porotect [[Policy talk:Terms of Use]] this page as highly visible page. Thanks. [[User:SCP-2000|SCP-2000]] ([[User talk:SCP-2000|talk]]) 04:19, 8 October 2023 (UTC)
::I am of two minds on this one. I tend to agree it is reasonable to do this to fight vandalism. But I am also aware it "in theory" prevents new community members from commenting on these policies. The unique possible long-term usage of this wiki is what I am hung up on.
::Perhaps a semi-protect notice that directs people to the Babel page? I will ponder and perhaps test this a little and report back - but also very open to thoughts on if it is fair/reasonable to prioritize anti-vandalism efforts over commentary from new accounts. Or how we may be able to achieve both at the same time (linking to Babel as example). Although a link to Babel may just redirect where the vandalism is happening - my hunch is that's probably a "click too many" for enough vandals to deter the behavior enough for that to still be a gain. But - I also do not want to create too many barriers for reasonable engagement such that Foundation could be seen as deterring feedback (which is very much not our goal here). It is also entirely possible I am just overthinking this - but contextually - I would rather that than be legitimately called out for "underthinking" it. --[[User:GVarnum-WMF|Gregory Varnum (Wikimedia Foundation) [he/him]]] ([[User talk:GVarnum-WMF|talk]]) 08:51, 12 October 2023 (UTC)
:::Thanks for your reply. As far as I can see, almost all edits on [[Policy talk:Privacy_policy]] and [[Policy talk:Terms of Use]] by non-auto-confirmed users were reverted in the past year, and [[Special:Diff/236684|here was semi-protected permanently before]]. Thus, I think semi-protection will only cause very little collateral damage.
:::Perhaps the semi-protection notice can direct people to the VRT email ({{nospam|info|wikimedia.org}}) and the WMF email ({{nospam|answers|wikimedia.org}})? If they have any questions regarding Wikipedia and Wikimedia projects / Terms of Use and Privacy Policy, they could contact VRT / WMF directly. Even some people may send nonsense emails, these emails can be blocked by the spam filter. [[User:SCP-2000|SCP-2000]] ([[User talk:SCP-2000|talk]]) 15:06, 12 October 2023 (UTC)
:::: The aforementioned protection was while this page was still on Meta (and the protection wasn't carried over with the import. [[User:Pppery|Pppery]] ([[User talk:Pppery|talk]]) 22:45, 12 October 2023 (UTC)
::::: I have gone ahead and implemented protections and display of [[Template:Semiprotected talk|this template]] on [[Policy talk:Privacy_policy]] and [[Policy talk:Terms of Use]]. Also open to [[Policy talk:Universal Code of Conduct]] and other high-traffic pages if it seems wise to do so at any point. Thank you all for your input! ----[[User:GVarnum-WMF|Gregory Varnum (Wikimedia Foundation) [he/him]]] ([[User talk:GVarnum-WMF|talk]]) 22:18, 13 October 2023 (UTC)

Red link

There is a red link in this section, please change it to correct link to Privacy policy, thanks. Ата (talk) 17:09, 14 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Ата: Thank you for pointing this out - I have gone ahead and fixed it. --Gregory Varnum (Wikimedia Foundation) [he/him] (talk) 20:39, 16 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Interwiki to enwiki

Policy:Privacy policy/Frequently asked questions has an interwiki link to w:en:Wikipedia:Username_policy, which is strange. Is it intended? Ата (talk) 17:11, 14 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Ата, can you elaborate on what you find odd? The linking to that specific page, the formatting of the link, or something else? Thank you! --Gregory Varnum (Wikimedia Foundation) [he/him] (talk) 20:40, 16 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
I find it weird that 1 language button on top of the page links to that specific page. Privacy policy FAQs ≠ enwiki username policy. Ата (talk) 15:29, 18 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
Fixed! It was a mis-ordered link. Thanks! Quiddity (WMF) (talk) 02:37, 19 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello. Can people under 13 edit Wikipedia? Wimajo15 (talk) 08:17, 26 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Wimajo15: Hello, the term of use and the privacy policy don't prevent children from editing Wikipedia. However, if you are a younger user, it is recommended reading the Guidance for younger editors and the Staying safe on Wikimedia as a young person page before editing. Happy editing!
