Mass-mail subscription list shells

Below is a list of empty shells that are available for use in the mass message subscription list content model. To use one, go to the page, and move it to the title you want. These pages should typically only be moved to the User and Project namespaces. New shells can be created by administrators and template editors.


General discussions

Split requests into new page

Hello, after reading and thinking about the comments by Reidgreg and isaacl. I think that there is an argument to be made for splitting requests onto a new page either a subpage or a completley new page (examples Wikipedia:Mass message senders/Requests or Wikipedia:Mass Message Requests). I created Wikipedia:Mass message senders/Requests as an example of what the page could be. I took the core components of Wikipedia:Mass message senders, rewrote them specifically with the idea that the reader would be someone requesting MMS, and then adding the MMS request section at the bottom. It is currently just a first attempt and I realise that I completley missed the Guidance for use section which should proably be included. The way I see it is: You don't see a section on "Becoming an administrator" when you try to edit the main page, why should you see "Requesting rights" and "General discussion" of MMS when trying to request a new message to be sent? It can just overload and act as a barrier for a user with no good reason that I can see as to why this is the case. With this change it can also mean that the page Wikipedia:Mass message senders can be rewritten with a focus on the user right with help for using the tool and what it is rather than a focus on making requests.

Overall just looking for thoughts on this and the new page I created and the idea in general, not looking to reshuffle everything at this very moment. Terasail[✉️] 01:50, 8 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for just seeing this comment now; another side effect of having discussion and requests on the same page is that it's easy for me to overlook discussion. I agree that it makes sense to have a separate page for those who want to make mass message requests, on which the requests can be made and then archived by a bot, separate from discussion about mass messaging in general. Those discussions can continue to be held on this talk page. isaacl (talk) 23:11, 22 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Letting folks with MMS perm also create MMS lists

They currently can't do this because they don't have the editcontentmodel permission / access to Special:ChangeContentModel. Is there any interest in getting this added to the MMS toolkit? Seems pretty uncontroversial but wanted to double check first. If we get enough support here, next step would probably be village pump, then Phabricator. Thanks. –Novem Linguae (talk) 19:51, 22 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Support as I find it very annoying having to move a shell each time I want to create a mailing list for NPP and the such. Zippybonzo | Talk (he|him) 19:54, 22 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support I believe it can make our work easier. Best, —Nnadigoodluck███ 20:22, 22 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support. - 🔥𝑰𝒍𝒍𝒖𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝑭𝒍𝒂𝒎𝒆 (𝒕𝒂𝒍𝒌)🔥 21:51, 22 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support Honestly, I thought that was already included in that right. Deauthorized. (talk) 22:08, 22 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
If I understand correctly, users with the editcontentmodel permission can change the content model of a page to Javascript. Because this is a security concern, I think the bar would be raised for gaining mass messaging privileges if it included editcontentmodel. Thus I don't feel it should be added. isaacl (talk) 22:11, 22 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Why is being able to change the content model of a page to JavaScript a security concern? - 🔥𝑰𝒍𝒍𝒖𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝑭𝒍𝒂𝒎𝒆 (𝒕𝒂𝒍𝒌)🔥 22:27, 22 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Javascript code runs in the user's browser and thus in the context of the user in its interactions with Wikipedia (that is, it can do anything the user can do). It can also be used to create UI elements that might confuse the user into entering privileged information. Thus managing which Javascript files are accessible to users is important for security. Being able to change the content model means that pages that aren't normally expected to be Javascript files (such as ones not ending in .js) could have their content model changed so they can execute as Javascript. A clever malicious user could find a way to exploit this. isaacl (talk) 22:39, 22 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, but it does have to be added to a user's skin/common.js or skin/common.css Zippybonzo | Talk (he|him) 06:03, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I appreciate Terasail posting the links to the previous discussions (one of which I participated in), and in those conversations, others have expressed a similar viewpoint to yours about the degree of risk. It does require someone being fooled into loading the Javascript (thus the need for cleverness), whether it's through a malicious URL, being given incorrect instructions, taking advantage of common typos, or something else. Of course this can already be done today with Javascript code on pages ending in .js. Nonetheless I am still wary of expanding the attack surface in an unexpected manner that might elude any current precautions taken by users. I agree with the views expressed in those earlier discussions that it would be better to implement a solution that just allowed mass message senders to create mailing lists. isaacl (talk) 06:31, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Massmessage is still a pretty high trust permission, and it's not given out to every person who wants it. If a user wanted to cause damage, they could get their common.js into another user's common.js. Zippybonzo | Talk (he|him) 06:34, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Mass message senders don't need the ability to set other content types, so in my view the current workaround is sufficient, versus moving to a different workaround. Although I think there is more caution now in granting the mass messaging privilege, back around its start I remember it being given to someone who just said they'd like to help out with sending mass messages. Delivering mass messages inappropriately can be disruptive to users, but isn't a security risk, and so I don't think mass message senders are screened with potential security issues in mind. isaacl (talk) 07:06, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Being able to change a page to javascript doesn't do anything to a user's client unless they add it to skin or common js, all users can put malicious code in their own js files and trick users into adding them into their common and skin js. Zippybonzo | Talk (he|him) 10:52, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose This was previously discussed a few years ago, that it should be added as part of the right and this was rejected. As TEs and Admins both have more substantial guidelines for granting and criteria for revocation it seems best to keep a right which can change any wikitext page into css (or whatever) more limited especially considering there is a maintained list of available MMS lists on this page already. It should probably be more widley discussed on VPR to see if there are any further arguments to be made. Terasail[✉️] 23:28, 22 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I also found Wikipedia:Village pump (proposals)/Archive 134#restrict editcontentmodel permission which mentions phab:T145344 which is highly concerning. I have not yet read through the task or discussions properly so I could quite easily change my position on this. Terasail[✉️] 23:41, 22 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per Terasail; the security issues presented above are overblown IMO, but this violates the single-responsibility principle and the principle of least privilege and will doom us to an eventual repeat of Wikipedia:Village pump (policy)/Archive 86#Restoring to Account Creators the Ability to Edit Editnotices * Pppery * it has begun... 14:18, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Let massmessage perm use Special:CreateMassMessageList

phab:T92795, which would involve letting anyone with the massmessage right use Special:CreateMassMessageList, looks like a simple and good solution. It solves the problem without needing to assign anyone change content model permissions. Thoughts on that approach? –Novem Linguae (talk) 07:32, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Support as this alleviates the above concerns while still allowing massmessage senders to create lists. - 🔥𝑰𝒍𝒍𝒖𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝑭𝒍𝒂𝒎𝒆 (𝒕𝒂𝒍𝒌)🔥 13:22, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Weak oppose The current system is working just fine; this makes the permission model more complicated for little apparent benefit. * Pppery * it has begun... 14:18, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support though the concerns raised above are mostly invalid as any user can convince someone to add malicious javascript to their common.js or skin.js. Zippybonzo | Talk (he|him) 15:36, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support - Back when I used MMS regularly (now that I think of it, I should probably ask that it me removed as I no longer use it), I found moving the shells to be quite inconvenient. We don't have empty draft articles lying around in case someone wants to create a new article, so I see no harm in deleting old shells and allowing MMS users to create new shells. - ZLEA T\C 20:48, 19 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Category pages disallowed for MassMessage

I thought I had found a quick way to post a notification to several category pages (In the category: namespace, not category talk:) created by the same editor, reducing the amount of mass messages to paste manually (see User:Buidhe/MMStemp). Unfortunately, category pages are blocked for MMS. How do you guys feel about changing this restriction, because I think this functionality is really helpful for bundled CfD nominations. (t · c) buidhe 20:38, 19 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

A cfd nomination shouldn't be a new section at the bottom of the page anyway, so that would still produce the wrong sort of edit. — xaosflux Talk 21:53, 20 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It's not ideal, but I think it meets the notification requirements and I think there should be better solutions than expecting someone to manually copy paste to a large number of pages. (t · c) buidhe 21:58, 20 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Question about MMS lists

Tracked in Phabricator
Task T326065

Hi, I'm wondering if someone who is more familiar with MMS lists than I am could take a look at this. I added someone to a MMS list at their own request (diff) but in the history it says that this edit was −7,233 bytes. Is there some kind of bug? (t · c) buidhe 04:40, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's a bit odd. I checked on Phabricator for any related task, but couldn't find any. If this is a bug, we should definitely file a task. Pinging @Xaosflux. – DreamRimmer (talk) 06:09, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Buidhe @DreamRimmer; not a bug - there was a backend change to the way the data is processed and stored on this type of page model, replacing spaces with tabs; the whitespace looks the same but takes up less space now. — xaosflux Talk 10:31, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The related task is phab:T326065. — xaosflux Talk 10:33, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the information. – DreamRimmer (talk) 15:45, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Administrators' Newsletter with broken syntax

I wanted to let you know, in case the issue wasn't fixed, that the last administrators' newsletter had broken wiki syntax that I had to fix. The arbcom column did not have the correct div tag. Here are the two edits I had to make in my archive to fix it.

Is it possible to check that there aren't any other problems with this? Or maybe someone vandalized my talk page before the post got archived? I do not know. Awesome Aasim 16:01, 21 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Awesome Aasim: We are aware of this issue. The January newsletter didn't get substituted correctly, causing syntax errors on every subscriber's talk page. En-Jungwon has done a great job fixing almost all the pages. You can see the related thread here. – DreamRimmer (talk) 16:14, 21 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I seem to have added an extra </div> below MediaWiki message delivery's signature. That might be what's causing the broken syntax. It is also causing lint errors on those talk pages. -- EN-Jungwon 17:03, 21 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

RFC notifications bot down

I've written a brief message at User:WhatamIdoing/MassMessage to all the editors listed at Wikipedia:Feedback request service#Wikipedia policies and guidelines, to let them know that they shouldn't expect any notifications for the foreseeable future. Could someone please send this?

Thanks, WhatamIdoing (talk) 01:23, 28 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey @WhatamIdoing, just a friendly reminder to use the request format when making mass message request. A little glitch during MMS delivery could lead to unintended spam on pages that aren't relevant. Thanks for your attention to this! – DreamRimmer (talk) 01:35, 28 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@DreamRimmer, where is the request format documented? WhatamIdoing (talk) 02:28, 28 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Not documented anywhere, but you can see above requests. It would be easy for us to send this way. :) – DreamRimmer (talk) 02:32, 28 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Found it, see here. – DreamRimmer (talk) 02:35, 28 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
At Wikipedia talk:Mass message senders § MassMessage Delivery Requests, if you select the "add request" link, then the text box will be preloaded with the standard format. (The format is essentially based on the one I used back in 2014.) isaacl (talk) 07:38, 28 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes Sent – DreamRimmer (talk) 08:12, 28 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you, DreamRimmer.
Isaacl, the instructions at Wikipedia:Mass message senders#Requesting a mailing say only "Requests for mailings may be made on the talk page" (that's a link to this talk page in general, not to the section heading). Perhaps that should be updated? WhatamIdoing (talk) 16:43, 28 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@WhatamIdoing Just scroll down a bit and find the "Add Request" option below the MassMessage Delivery Requests section. Once you click on it, a ready-made format will open in the edit box, making it super easy for you to fill in the details as needed. – DreamRimmer (talk) 16:53, 28 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Personally I think requests should be split off onto their own page (see previous discussions in 2018, 2022, and earlier this year). There doesn't appear to be much interest, though, amongst those who hold the mass message delivery privileges. In the meantime, I've changed the wikilink for the text "made" (which points to the specific section in question) so the full link text is "made on the talk page". isaacl (talk) 18:42, 28 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

GAN backlog drive message

Would someone please deliver me the GAN backlog drive message my fellow collaborators are receiving. I have reviewed one successful GA-Queen Camilla- and nominated one-Catherine, Princess of Wales- both after October last year. Yet I have received no messages from MediaWiki message delivery on my talk page. Please take up the matter for consideration so that I receive talk page messages in the future.

Thanks for your assistance! Regards MSincccc (talk) 14:02, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@MSincccc, the drive coordinators sent out the mass message to a mailing list that was last updated during the August 2023 backlog drive, which explains why you haven't received the March drive notification. If you'd like to receive this March drive message, just let me know, and I'll be happy to send it to you manually. Also, just for your information, this venue is for requesting mass message deliveries, and requests like this should be made at relevant venues, such as the GA talk page, which was the right venue for this request. Thanks! – DreamRimmer (talk) 14:58, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

DreamRimmer one way to get around this is to write as the signature: (manual pasted signature, excluding the date) ~~~~~ which will give the current timestamp (for instance, [[User:DreamRimmer|<b style="color:black; font-family: Tahoma">DreamRimmer</b>]] ('''[[User talk:DreamRimmer|talk]]''') ~~~~~, which displays as DreamRimmer (talk) 04:45, 18 January 2024 (UTC)).

@HouseBlaster could you please add a line at the bottom of the message text explaining why they are receiving this message, because we don’t generally spam talk pages of users who have not subscribed to any messaging list. Also, I think blocked users should be removed from the list. – DreamRimmer (talk) 05:46, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
No problem at all! Taking a look at the RfC, it seems like everyone should be good with it, and I don't expect any issues. – DreamRimmer (talk) 05:58, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your assistance! Maybe the signature timestamp should be changed? Aaron Liu (talk) 00:58, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sent with current timestamp, if that was a concern. (t · c) buidhe 02:37, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Welp, I meant maybe change my signature to the actual timestamp of sending, not add another signature. Thanks anyways! Aaron Liu (talk) 02:39, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Aaron Liu If you want a message sent out under your name, but a current timestamp, please end it with ~~~ (in my case, this expands to (t · c) buidhe) then the person sending the message can add five ~ which prints out just the date without the signature.
