I came across this award reviewing a draft and it appears to be a notable award mentioned in several articles. Thought you might be interested in creating an article. See also es:Gourmand World Cookbook Awards. S0091 (talk) 16:09, 5 February 2024 (UTC)
- Hm, it has an entry in 8 language wikis. Definitely seems worth investigating, thanks! Valereee (talk) 17:37, 6 February 2024 (UTC)

- The appearance of talk pages changed for all wikis, except for Commons, Wikidata and most Wikipedias (a few have already received this design change). You can read the detail of the changes on Diff. It is possible to opt-out these changes in user preferences ("Show discussion activity"). The deployment will happen at remaining wikis in the coming weeks. [1][2]
Interface admins now have greater control over the styling of article components on mobile with the introduction of the SiteAdminHelper. More information on how styles can be disabled can be found at the extension's page. [3]- Wikimedia Enterprise has added article body sections in JSON format and a curated short description field to the existing parsed Infobox. This expansion to the API is also available via Wikimedia Cloud Services. [4]
Changes later this week
The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 7 May. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 8 May. It will be on all wikis from 9 May (calendar). [5][6]- When you look at the Special:Log page, the first view is labelled "All public logs", but it only shows some logs. This label will now say "Main public logs". [7]
Future changes
- A new service will be built to replace Extension:Graph. Details can be found in the latest update regarding this extension.
- Starting May 21, English Wikipedia and German Wikipedia will get the possibility to activate "Add a link". This is part of the progressive deployment of this tool to all Wikipedias. These communities can activate and configure the feature locally. [8]

UCM article[edit]
Hi Valereee. I'm not sure if my message got lost in the hustle and bustle of the talk page, but I've proposed new content which I think balances out concerns we've had with the Universal Classic Monsters article. Basically new sources have come available and the conversation has brought new material to the table that addresses a large chunk of viewing these characters as a franchise from a more serious angle. I've written a basic draft here and normally would just add it to the article, but as I'm being watched on WP:OWN etc, I want to clear the air and have others take a look at the draft first before I edit it in. It can be found here User:Andrzejbanas/sandbox/Universal Monsters. Thoughts? Andrzejbanas (talk) 03:58, 8 May 2024 (UTC)
- Hey, @Andrzejbanas! Yes, I saw that. I'm just an admin at that article, which means staying out of content. Valereee (talk) 13:06, 8 May 2024 (UTC)
- Fair. I'm glad the conversation is happening on the article anyways again, as I wouldn't have looked up the information otherwise. And yesz totally fine if you didn't look, but just wanted to get input from others as I feel this content will be much more satisfying to the other editors issues. It's so great when good sources like this just fall into our laps. Anyways, thanks for the response. Andrzejbanas (talk) 14:13, 8 May 2024 (UTC)
Tech issue?[edit]
I'm sorry I just reverted you. Occasionally I hit rollback by mistake. This is like the third time it's happened and it's frustrating. I have the confirmation prompt (are you sure you want to rollback?) and I always hit no, but this doesn't actually stop it from using rollback? I think I'm going to try and find out why that's happening because I don't think it should be. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 19:52, 10 May 2024 (UTC)
- No worries, happens to many of us! Valereee (talk) 19:55, 10 May 2024 (UTC)
- Well ideally the prompt itself shouldn't be useless. I'm going to try and figure out what's going on there. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 19:57, 10 May 2024 (UTC)
