- Some CSS in the Minerva skin has been removed to enable easier community configuration. Interface editors should check the rendering on mobile devices for aspects related to the classes:
.collapsible

. Further details are available on replacement CSS if it is needed.
Changes later this week

- When you visit a wiki where you don't yet have a local account, local rules such as edit filters can sometimes prevent your account from being created. Starting this week, MediaWiki takes your global rights into account when evaluating whether you can override such local rules. [3]

Reverting
[edit]Hello! I'm just wondering why'd you revert my adding of the PD-State of Palestine on official governmental items? RowanJ LP (talk) 15:56, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- RowanJ LP, Per Commons:Village_pump/Copyright#Template:PD-State_of_Palestine discussion I removed information about flag trademarks from {{PD-State of Palestine}} as trademarks are not related to copyrights. Without the part about the flags, {{PD-State of Palestine}} is equivalent to {{PD-anon-70}} and apply to anonymous works or need to apply to "statute, regulation, Knesset protocol or court decisions". Most of the files I reverted were flags and emblems created by Commons users, so none of the conditions of the template apply to them. Also in the current state, I do not think {{PD-State of Palestine}} is valid, see the discussion, so it will likely need to be changed or deleted. In case it is deleted, I don't want those files (with seemingly valid licenses) to get mixed up in the discussion. --Jarekt (talk) 19:43, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- I didn't know that this discussion was currently going on, thank you for bringing this up. RowanJ LP (talk) 12:34, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
Pages with camera coordinates from SDC has been listed at Commons:Categories for discussion so that the community can discuss ways in which it should be changed. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at its entry. If you created this category, please note that the fact that it has been proposed for discussion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with it. If the category is up for deletion because it has been superseded, consider the notion that although the category may be deleted, your hard work (which we all greatly appreciate) lives on in the new category. In all cases, please do not take the category discussion personally. It is never intended as such. Thank you! |
