How we will see unregistered users

Hi!

You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.

When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.

Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.

If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.

We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.

Thank you. /Johan (WMF)

January songs

in friendship

Happy new year, in friendship! - Thank you for still being around! - One of my pics is on the Main page, DYK? - In this young year, I enjoyed meetings with friends in real life, and wish you many of those. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:48, 6 January 2022 (UTC)

from snow to surf - and only late today I discovered that OTD has an article I created ten years ago, Guido Dessauer, ten years and remembered --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:19, 13 January 2022 (UTC)

2022 began happily with vacation. I uploaded images but stopped at 22 January - click on songs. 30 January means 10 years of Precious. It's also the birthday of a friend, - I'm so happy I mentioned his DYK on his 90th birthday when he was still alive. I have a great singer on DYK whom I heard, Elena Guseva, and wait for a Recent death appearance of Georg Christoph Biller whom I saw in action. - And you? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:58, 30 January 2022 (UTC)

update: we have now Guseva pictured, Biller pictured better (but still not on the Main page), and one more day of my pics --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:09, 31 January 2022 (UTC)

• Hi there. Lovely to hear from you :) Sadly, I've lots going on right now as Peter's Mom and Dad both passed over the last month. I've been travelling back and forth to Pennsylvania since December - hence keeping a low profile here. Keep up the good work - I'll be back soon as can be :) - Alison ^❤ 17:28, 1 February 2022 (UTC)

Thank you, - I took the pic in 2009. It was on the German MP yesterday, with this song from 1885, in English Prayer for Ukraine. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:27, 6 March 2022 (UTC)

Anatoliy Fedoruk (or Anatoly Fedoruk?)

Hallo Alison, Is the missing "i" in his name in the lead a typo, or a variant transliteration? I've made redirects from all three possible other versions of his name (with and without Petrovich, and that "i").

Please remember to add at least one source to every article you start but most importantly for anything on a living person. Techically this stub would qualify for BLPPROD as it has no sources: I reckoned a link to the Ukrainian version would save it from that fate, but someone else might be more ruthless. Just one good source, at least. Thanks. PamD 06:22, 4 April 2022 (UTC)
