==Consumerrights wiki not translatable via translate.google.com==
 
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?
 
This link is an example of translating the Microsoft_Windows page to Dutch: https://consumerrights-wiki.translate.goog/w/Microsoft_Windows?_x_tr_sl=en&_x_tr_tl=nl&_x_tr_hl=en&_x_tr_pto=wapp&_x_tr_hist=true

::this website isnt indexed by search engines, thats probably why this happens [[User:AnotherConsumerRightsPerson|'''''AnotherConsumerRightsPerson''''']] ([[User talk:AnotherConsumerRightsPerson|talk]]) 17:58, 23 January 2026 (UTC)
:::@[[User:AnotherConsumerRightsPerson|AnotherConsumerRightsPerson]] That is not the issue; it is indexed by search engines (at least the main page). This is a server configuration issue, perhaps to do with X-Frame-Options or other headers [[User:Webketje|Webketje]] ([[User talk:Webketje|talk]]) 11:16, 29 January 2026 (UTC)
 
::::Wow! I think you have stumbled onto a clue to why Louis can not get page rank for Consumer Rights Wiki articles! If Google is banned from this website (or if Google thinks it is banned) that would explain both behaviours. We need to get eyes onto this bug.

==Ability to edit Main Page.css and Main Page/Portals in Special:UncategorizedPages is bit of security issue==
I'd consider hiding that pages or adding permissions required to edit them, as both can be used for malicious actions. WIth css it will be just okay, let's make this look like circus or unusable, but with Portals you can embed external links directly in them.

==Caching issue with mobile view==
==LibreWolf and Tor issue with new CRW extension==
 
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'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.

==Edit title names==
 
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

::What you need to do is click on the 'Tools' button on the right above the article if you have it, and from there even if you don't have it on the right a 'move' button should appear.

==New users have the editcontentmodel user right==
 
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.
 
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.
 
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.

Pages not rendering the correct view [[User:JakeL|JakeL]] ([[User talk:JakeL|talk]]) 14:31, 14 February 2026 (UTC)
:This is enabled by default in MediaWiki, presumably because wikis are intended to be permissive and collaborative by nature. Thanks for noticing though! I will be pushing an update shortly to restrict it appropriately. [[User:JakeL|JakeL]] ([[User talk:JakeL|talk]]) 18:52, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
::I see the permission is now limited to admins and interface admins, good work!
