lack of info boxes in siSwati articles

I would like to add info boxes on the siSwati articles , whenever i translate an article from English to siSwati the infobox does not want to transfare with the article, can you help me with this ? --Bobbyshabangu (talk ) 8:44, 26 Indlovana 2014 (UTC)

Hi Bobbyshabangu, first of all I'm very sorry for the delay. I answered on Wikipedia:Likhefi_leinthanethi#Creating_an_info_box. --MF-Warburg (talk) 04:17, 3 iNdlovu 2014 (UTC)

Problem when editing

Hi MF-Warburg, I have problems to edit the wiki from several months ago. When I open the pages the Internet connection breaks the link, and I have to repeat the action 4 or 5 times in every attempt to succeed. In other wikis I have no problem. Of course, I'm seeing daily activity as usual, but it's hard to help. Regards.—Jatrobat (talk) 10:51, 14 iNdlovu 2014 (UTC)

Hi Jatrobat, I have no idea what that could be. Maybe you could ask in the English Wikipedia or eventually open a bug in bugzilla:. --MF-Warburg (talk) 00:45, 27 iNdlovu 2014 (UTC)

Referencing

Hi MF-Warburg, I created a Solomon Mahlangu article in both English Wikipedia and SiSwati Wikipedia but on the siSwati Wikipedia the same referencing and citations I've used seemed to be null and void, can you help explain how to go about referencing in retrospect to that article? -- Bobbyshabangu (talk ) 5:44, 20 Mabasa 2014 (UTC)

I think Jatrobat has fixed it now? In general, you should add direct links, and not the templates like "{{cite web" which exist only on English WP. --MF-Warburg (talk) 22:47, 24 Mabasa 2014 (UTC)

Administrator rights

Hi User talk:MF-Warburg I would like to request that you add me to be an administrator in the Siswati Wikipedia since I'm active in this Wikipedia and I'm a native speaker of the language. Bobbyshabangu _talk 16:44, 21 Kholwane 2018 (UTC)

Hi User:Bobbyshabangu, please make a request for adminship on Wikipedia:Likhefi leinthanethi for the community to discuss and vote. Then after a week, you can request administrator rights on m:SRP (or I can transfer the request for you). --MF-Warburg (talk) 09:46, 27 Kholwane 2018 (UTC)

Hi MF-Warburg I've already made the request on the community but I don't see any discussions! Bobbyshabangu _talk 15:43, 14 iNgci 2018 (UTC)

That's no problem. No discussions also means no objections. So I have requested that you get adminship on m:SRP. --MF-Warburg (talk) 16:51, 14 iNgci 2018 (UTC)

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)
