Hello All, *TL;DR*
*If you’re interested in changes to how Special:Block works, then see the discussion about Partial blocks <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Community_health_initiative/Per-user_page,_namespace,_and_upload_blocking#How_should_partial_blocks_be_logged>. And give feedback. * The Wikimedia Foundation Anti-Harassment Tools team is talking with the Wikimedia community about adding a partial blocks function to Special:Block. 1 While no functionality will change for sitewide blocks, Special:Block will change to allow the ability to block a user from: 1. Editing one or more specific page(s) 2. Editing all pages within one or more namespace(s) 3. Uploading files 4. Emailing other users Proposed changes to how logging of blocks happens is being discussed now.2 The third set of designs for the layout are also available for review.3 Please spread the word and forward this email to others (especially administrators) who might be interested in helping re-design Special:Block's layout. 1. https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Community_health_initiative/Per_user_page,_namespace,_category,_and_upload_blocking 2. https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Community_health_initiative/Per-user_page,_namespace,_and_upload_blocking#How_should_partial_blocks_be_logged <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Community_health_initiative/Per-user_page,_namespace,_and_upload_blocking#Second_designs> 3. https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Community_health_initiative/Per-user_page,_namespace,_and_upload_blocking#Third_designs For the Anti-Harassment Tools team, Sydney Poore -- Sydney Poore Trust and Safety Specialist Wikimedia Foundation Trust and Safety team; Anti-harassment tools team _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list, guidelines at: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/Guidelines and https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia-l New messages to: [email protected] Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l, <mailto:[email protected]?subject=unsubscribe>
