Undo and Redo Buttons
Hello again PPelberg, we are discussed about adding Undo and Redo Buttons in wikitext editor on mobile at here and you said that "we plan to revisit some time after July of this year". What about the result? Thanks! ⇒ AramTalk 12:25, 13 July 2019 (UTC)
- User:Aram, hi – I'm glad you followed up and I appreciate you being patient with me. I wanted to reply once I had an answer for you, which I now do: for the time being, introducing any new functionality into the mobile wikitext editing toolbar is out of scope for our work on the mobile VE editing toolbar. This means we will not be able to add "undo" or "redo" buttons as part of this initial work. With this said, I've pulled the ticket we were talking about ealier into the toolbar epic we are working on. This way: the team can consider working on it if we finish with the work we have planned earlier than expected.
- If anything else comes up, I hope you will let me know. PPelberg (WMF) (talk) 21:43, 26 July 2019 (UTC)
- EDIT: Linking to the correct ticket we talked about in April.
- Hello again, Mmm... I didn't understand anything! We talked about Wikitext Editor on mobile (not VE). Can you explain it better and easier? Thank you! ⇒ AramTalk 16:20, 27 July 2019 (UTC)
- Ah, I'm sorry :) I was wanting to communicate that our work is limited to the mobile visual editor toolbar right now. Meaning, we will not be able to make changes to the mobile wikitext editing toolbar at this moment. Please let me know if I can try to make anything more clear. PPelberg (WMF) (talk) 23:45, 5 August 2019 (UTC)
- Ough! No, I understood all. Thanks for your all answers! ⇒ AramTalk 18:10, 8 August 2019 (UTC)
- For sure :) If you will be at Wikimania, please let me know. It would be great to meet in person! PPelberg (WMF) (talk) 15:59, 11 August 2019 (UTC)
- No, I just a wikipedian. I have no idea what Wikimania is it. ⇒ AramTalk 15:27, 23 January 2020 (UTC)
- Aram, Oh, okay! It's annual conference hosted by the Wikimedia Foundation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikimania @PPelberg (talk) 16:12, 23 January 2020 (UTC)

Hi PPelberg, I was wanting to try the new reply feature at the above site however my IP bizarrely appears to be blocked there?, when I try and create an account I get:
"Your IP address has been automatically blocked because it was used by another user, who was blocked by Edit filter. The reason given is:
Autoblocked because your IP address was recently used by "Indira0157". The reason given for Indira0157's block is: "Automatically blocked by edit filter.
Description of matched rule: Block the "Nothing-to-say-about-me-really" spammer".""
I'd rather not try it and reveal my IP so wasn't sure if something could be done so that I can create an account and test the feature,
Many thanks, Regards, –Davey2010Talk 20:40, 13 April 2020 (UTC)
