Edit by WMF staff pending a review

One edit by WMF staff was made two days ago and is awaiting review. --George Ho (talk) 01:16, 5 June 2020 (UTC)

@George Ho: None of us could figure out what that edit was supposed to do, so we asked the WMF account who made the edit for an explanation. So far they haven't bothered to explain, nor even to respond. --Pi zero (talk) 01:24, 5 June 2020 (UTC)

@Pi zero:, no they did. Please see User talk:Jon (WMF). They provided the now and future version of the mobile site main page. I see there is an objection. And I believe that really would be an ugly change. They haven't responded how we can continue maintaining the current look.

So they did; my mistake. --Pi zero (talk) 11:53, 5 June 2020 (UTC)

Featured Articles RSS Link

The Featured Articles RSS Link on the Homepage is not recognised. This one form the Featured Category seems to resolve the issue: https://en.wikinews.org/w/index.php?title=Special:NewsFeed&feed=rss&categories=Featured%20article%7CPublished&notcategories=No%20publish%7Cdisputed&namespace=0&hourcount=-1&ordermethod=categoryadd&stablepages=only By the way, is it normal that Wikinews does not recognise the accounts from other Wikimedia Projects? ----
