::::::That part about the first paragraph being un-editable is not intended but the fact that users cannot edit the stub notice (or other notices) is created so someone cant just arbitrariliy edit their post removing the notices without staff review and formal appeal of the action by the user.  As for where the dashboard is [[Consumer Rights Wiki talk:Moderators' noticeboard]] here is a link to it. As for the rest of  your concerns I will flag down one of the tech folks or Keith for you to provide a more detailed explaination or look into exactly why everything in a first paragraph is being locked down as if someone adds a stub notices it should be at the top and above all text so there should be a seperation between the article text and the stub notice. This might also just be a policy thing we need to discuss as the stub notice is working as intended but the text after it being locked is not. - [[User:Atsumari|Atsumari]] ([[User talk:Atsumari|talk]]) 08:24, 1 November 2025 (UTC)

==CAPTCHA appears only after pressing Add topic or any other similar main activity button clicked==
More of a suggestion, but it would be much better if CAPTCHA appeared if user made changes in all required fields/field. Less clicks to action - better UI, more engaged regular users. [[User:Banana|Banana]] ([[User talk:Banana|talk]]) 01:35, 8 November 2025 (UTC)

::Now fixed! [[User:JakeL|JakeL]] ([[User talk:JakeL|talk]]) 00:41, 6 March 2026 (UTC)
==Main page header blues are low contrans, and don't meet WCAG AAA standards.==
<nowiki>#</nowiki>7FB6FF for links and #004080 for background are too close to each other. It is improvement over prevous conmination, but still not super accessible for color blind people. Blue and black themes are quite hard to make because both are dark colors. You can ping me here or in Discord if you want to discuss accessibility.  [[User:Banana|Banana]] ([[User talk:Banana|talk]]) 22:40, 4 February 2026 (UTC)
==Header Icons in vector-header class header are changing to black in dark theme==
Icons like Alerts, Notices, Watchlist and Personal settings are switching to black when device is in dark theme. Tested in chrome and firefox, on Linux (ubuntu 24.04 LTS + KDE) and Mac.  [[User:Banana|Banana]] ([[User talk:Banana|talk]]) 22:44, 4 February 2026 (UTC)
==Visited links on dark blue background doesnt meet WCAG accessibility standards==
<nowiki>#</nowiki>6a60b0 for link text on #1b223d has contrast of 2.91 which is way off for color blind people. [[User:Banana|Banana]] ([[User talk:Banana|talk]]) 22:50, 4 February 2026 (UTC)
==Class infobox blocks are shifting layout and moves parts of first entry in lists they are above==
Good example is Previous discussions block in this page. It has too low width or margins, so flex layout wraps first entry in list around it.  [[User:Banana|Banana]] ([[User talk:Banana|talk]]) 22:53, 4 February 2026 (UTC)
==w/Special:Preferences header has no background==
w/Special:Preferences has same header functions as other pages header, but has other styling [[User:Banana|Banana]] ([[User talk:Banana|talk]]) 22:59, 4 February 2026 (UTC)
==Category:Wiki root subcategories with 1 article should be always in expanded state==
This will reduce amount of clicks to some articles and make user experience little touch better [[User:Banana|Banana]] ([[User talk:Banana|talk]]) 23:00, 4 February 2026 (UTC)
==Width radio buttons in Appearance section of vector-sticky-pinned-container navbar does not change anything==
Tested in chrome and firefox, both Linux (ubuntu 24.04 lts + KDE) and Mac. Width radio buttons don't change anything in any page I opened to check it out.  [[User:Banana|Banana]] ([[User talk:Banana|talk]]) 23:04, 4 February 2026 (UTC)
==/Sandbox and /Sandbox/Welcome are redundant==


==Error when using " Random page " button==
/Sandbox/Welcome is looking same and does absolutely same stuff as /Sandbox [[User:Banana|Banana]] ([[User talk:Banana|talk]]) 23:22, 4 February 2026 (UTC)


I was just poking around at the website, until I've noticed a random page button, hit it once, worked fine, tried it another time and got this error : MediaWiki internal error.
==vector-sticky-pinned-container navbar hide button pinning to static header is counterintuitive==


Original exception: [b1219b51071b190a6bd156cf] 2026-01-22 08:02:21: Fatal exception of type "MediaWiki\Exception\MWUnknownContentModelException"
If you click on hide option, It creates just another button in static header, which is super confusing for those who have not a lot of technical knowledge [[User:Banana|Banana]] ([[User talk:Banana|talk]]) 23:31, 4 February 2026 (UTC)

==LibreWolf and Tor issue with new CRW extension==
::T think the weird thing is you being sent to that page in the first place, rather than the fact that an error appeared when you were. i mashed ramdom page a few times and had no problem so i assume it's an issue with the list of pages it's choosing from. [[User:Keith|Keith]] ([[User talk:Keith|talk]]) 09:04, 22 January 2026 (UTC)
:::Ok, this is the same issue as 'Broken pages' above, and is being worked on. [[User:Keith|Keith]] ([[User talk:Keith|talk]]) 12:50, 3 February 2026 (UTC)


==Consumerrights wiki not translatable via translate.google.com==
Hello, LibreWolf and Tor both cannot use the new CRW extension as it needs "the new firefox". I clicked the download file option as well, but it doesn't work either for both. Might just be a Mozilla being almost as bad as Google sort of issue but this doesn't happen to any other extensions, so i doubt it. [[User:AnotherConsumerRightsPerson|'''''AnotherConsumerRightsPerson''''']] ([[User talk:AnotherConsumerRightsPerson|talk]]) 17:41, 4 March 2026 (UTC)


I wanted to share a page of this wiki with a Dutch-speal-king friend & Google Translate has this handy feature where you can drop a link, and it will generate a link with the webpage translated to your language of choice. Unfortunately, this feature doesn't seem to work for consumerrightswiki (returning a 403 Forbidden), limiting its reach to EN-only speakers. Is there any chance translate.google.com can be whitelisted?
:I'll pass this on, though to my knowledge there's no official support for either browser [[User:Keith|Keith]] ([[User talk:Keith|talk]]) 17:44, 4 March 2026 (UTC)
::They're both Firefox-based, and even extensions specifically made for Firefox and only firefox work with firefox-based browsers. This one is a very unusual exception. [[User:AnotherConsumerRightsPerson|'''''AnotherConsumerRightsPerson''''']] ([[User talk:AnotherConsumerRightsPerson|talk]]) 18:04, 4 March 2026 (UTC)
:::Have had a chat with Jake, and seems it's (mostly) a config issue on our end, with the minimum Firefox version being specified somewhere or other. If you want to get to the extension straight away, you can get it directly from the extension github: https://github.com/FULU-Foundation/CRW-Extension
:::Otherwise, it's something we'll aim to resolve in the next release. [[User:Keith|Keith]] ([[User talk:Keith|talk]]) 18:09, 4 March 2026 (UTC)
::::You can download the extension, edit the <code>strict_min_version</code> in <code>manifest/firefox.json</code> (line 51) https://github.com/FULU-Foundation/CRW-Extension/blob/main/manifest/firefox.json#L51 to a lower Firefox version, then build and install it locally https://github.com/FULU-Foundation/CRW-Extension?tab=readme-ov-file#clone-and-build-the-extension as a temporary workaround. We'll be lowering the minimum version requirement in a future release. [[User:JakeL|JakeL]] ([[User talk:JakeL|talk]]) 18:17, 4 March 2026 (UTC)
:::::Thanks, will do that! [[User:AnotherConsumerRightsPerson|'''''AnotherConsumerRightsPerson''''']] ([[User talk:AnotherConsumerRightsPerson|talk]]) 18:19, 4 March 2026 (UTC)
::::::WOW. I am in awe at how good the extension is now. This has completely changed since the previous version, I'm so glad I went into the effort of installing it.

Multiple users have accidentally created pages with incorrect titles (e.g., including a year or typos). Including myself,  please allow users to edit title names, because [Year] Doesn't always show up in the search and it's annoying that we cannot fix titles

:::@[[User:AnotherConsumerRightsPerson|AnotherConsumerRightsPerson]] That is not the issue; it is indexed by search engines (at least the main page).

After answering the [https://cryptpad.fr/form/#/2/form/view/m7l6L13thN198p-PfvXPVM9mFE+K5ucpzYsGiS4pN-M/ survey on CryptPad], you get prompted to visit the Main Page. The link however, leads to https://consumerrights.wiki/Main_page, whereas the actual Main Page is https://consumerrights.wiki/Main_Page with a capital P. Should be as simple as adding a redirect for all capitalisation variants of "Main Page", to avoid this issue ever again, since no article will (or should) ever use the name Main Page, anyway. [[User:Sebandar|Sebandar]] ([[User talk:Sebandar|talk]]) 19:49, 23 January 2026 (UTC)
==New users have the editcontentmodel user right==


:Created the redirect - thank you for bringing it up! (and sorry for the delayed response) [[User:Keith|Keith]] ([[User talk:Keith|talk]]) 09:44, 3 February 2026 (UTC)
The editcontentmodel user right (see [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:ChangeContentModel]) is currently bestowed (I believe mistakenly) to new users, which you can check via [[Special:ListGroupRights]]. This allows any logged-in user to change the content model of any page on the wiki between CSS, Javascript, JSON, plaintext, sanitized CSS, and wikitext, using [[Special:ChangeContentModel]]. On the English Wikipedia, this is a user right only granted to administrators and other such trusted user groups, I expect because it can massively reformat an entire page, and because I'm not sure if it checks for permission to edit the target page.


==Page tabs hidden==
I'm not a security expert, but maybe there's a chance there's a security problem as well involving placing malicious code in any namespace? Though, I don't think there would be a way to run the code. I'm more worried about potential vandalism.


Whatever the changes were has caused the first two tabs (article/project & talk) to now appear behind the site logo for CRW. [[User:Sojourna|Sojourna]] ([[User talk:Sojourna|talk]]) 00:11, 28 January 2026 (UTC)
There's only been three uses of this tool (one use being a test by myself) on this wiki, so I'm sure you guys aren't going to be missing out on much by restricting usage of this tool to only trusted users.

:Please force clear your browser cache. [[User:JakeL|JakeL]] ([[User talk:JakeL|talk]]) 00:30, 28 January 2026 (UTC)

::I have force cleared the browser cache for Firefox v147.0.2. I used the "purge cache" under the "More" tab, and force-refreshed the page - didn't work.

:::Thanks for letting me know. Could you please use our default skin (Vector 2022) for now until I get around to this?
