Incubator:Administrators' noticeboard

This is the page to request attention from test administrators, administrators and bureaucrats. Note what they can do.

Administrators can:

• protect and unprotect pages
• delete and undelete pages
• delete images and other uploaded files
• block and unblock users
• edit the interface and other protected pages
• use the built-in rollback functionality

Test administrators can do the same (except protecting and unprotecting pages), but only within their tests (therefore they cannot edit the interface).

• Exception: As rollback is only appropriate to use in cases of vandalism, test-administrators can use that feature anywhere they see vandalism.

Bureaucrats can do all the above, as well as:

• grant administrator/bureaucrat status
• grant/revoke test-administrator status
• grant/revoke bot flags
• rename users [now mostly obsolete in favor of global accounts and unified login]

Note: Only Stewards may remove adminship or bureaucratship. If you want this to be done go to Requests for permissions at the Meta-Wiki.

If there is no response, you may wish to try the IRC channel, #wikimedia-incubator.

• For deletion requests, use I:RFD for test deletions and {{delete}} for speedy deletions.
• For user rights (admins, test-admins, bots, ...) or renamings, see I:A.

Unilateral replacement of Wy/sh with Wy/hr

Hello! Can an Incubator administrator please undo Wy/sh redirects, delete Wy/hr copies of original Wy/sh pages, and protect the pages from further disruption? Thanks! – Vipz (talk · isv) 05:30, 11 July 2026 (UTC)

Either the admins have mostly dealt with this situation by now, or there wasn't much to revert at all. While yes I am nt an administrator it looks like there's nothing but the main page in Wy/hr. I reverted Wy/sh/Glavna stranica but maybe I shouldn't do anything else? Although it looks to be almost a month since this request was made; he asked for an administrator.

Wt/tok/lipu open

Is there a chance the Wiktionary of Toki Pona can be opened? It has a valid ISO 639-3 code (tok), and even has its own Wikipedia page at . Qazwsxedcrfvtgbyhnujmikolpplokimjunhybgtvfrcdexswzaq (talk) 04:24, 18 July 2026 (UTC)

I mean it has all of the building to deserve it. Qazwsxedcrfvtgbyhnujmikolpplokimjunhybgtvfrcdexswzaq (talk) 03:16, 21 July 2026 (UTC)

Note that currently there is lexicographic editing in the 'nimi' namespace of Wikipesija: w:tok:nimi:pu Arlo Barnes (talk) 17:56, 21 July 2026 (UTC)

Yeah but what should we do for the real Wiktionary page. At least it deserves a redirect or maybe a transfer? Qazwsxedcrfvtgbyhnujmikolpplokimjunhybgtvfrcdexswzaq (talk) 22:31, 21 July 2026 (UTC)

Moving Template:MovedtoIncPlus2 to Template:Miraheze and expanding its functionality

COnsidering how Template:Wikia follows this format, where the name is just "Wikia" and the place it may have went might be the Incubator Plus (although other wikis can be specified)... Why not Miraheze? It does happen that a wiki may decide to not go to the Incubator Plus 2.0, but rather to make their own wiki separate from it elsewhere on Miraheze. So far, I've found one of the examples to be the Interslavic Wiki before going back to the incubator. So...

Alternatively it could just be created separate from the original template, and the first one deprecated or used as an alternative?

Or none of the above? Kxeon (talk) 15:52, 2 August 2026 (UTC)

Event namespace

Hello, I want to create a page like "Event:Wb/su/Sundanese Wikibooks editathon" but it says "Permission error." Is there a way to create Event page on Incubator?

Thank you. Deepturquoise (talk) 02:47, 14 August 2026 (UTC)
