MediaWiki talk:Titleblacklist

Please add

(?:(?:Talk|(?:Category|Template)(?: talk)?):)?Wp\/std.* <noedit> # The Sentinelese people reject any contact with the rest of the world.

to the MediaWiki:Titleblacklist. --84.61.128.139 10:11, 29 December 2014 (UTC)

Sorry, but even though the Sentinelese people might not have any contact with the rest of the world and there is really no realistic prospect that Wp/std will therefore be edited anytime soon, there is no reason to prevent it. If we get problems of e.g. repeated fake attempts or vandalism under that prefix, we can always do it. --MF-W {a, b} 04:18, 30 December 2014 (UTC)

Please add

(?:(?:Talk|(?:Category|Template)(?: talk)?):)?W[bnpqsvy]\/(als|bar|[dh]sb|ksh)/.*[\x{0FD5}-\x{0FD8}\x{534D}\x{5350}].* <noedit> # Swastikas are very inappropriate symbols in Germany, Austria, and some other countries.

to the MediaWiki:Titleblacklist. (Wiktionaries (Wt) have been skipped, due to false positives.) --84.61.149.146 17:09, 4 February 2016 (UTC)

Is there any current issue that justifies this? --MF-W {a, b} 10:23, 5 February 2016 (UTC)

Please add qqq and qqx

phab:T273705 was created because of https://incubator.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wp/qqq?uselang=en& being possible, also https://incubator.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wp/qqx could be a similar issue. Please exclude the two above. Alternatively the pages could be protected against creation. See https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T273705#7171147 for a short sampling of page titles.

I don't see the need to do this. The pages have never been created, so this seems to be no problem. --MF-W {a, b} 09:28, 1 July 2021 (UTC)

@Q28: you created phab:T273705.

Sometimes we get the view from some langcom member(s) that this or that code shouldn't be implemented (at Wikidata) because people could create a project in Incubator as well. Since we identified ways to avoid that, it's no longer a valid argument. Which option you choose (titleblacklist, notice on main page, page protection or wait if it's actually a problem) is up to Incubator. Jura1 (talk) 10:24, 2 July 2021 (UTC)
