stub notice bug
I tried submitting my deletion req for FakePortal but get hit with "Stub notices can NOT be removed by users with normal privileges". Tried removing the unused infoboxes in WhatsApp, GoGuardian, Asus and Roblox, and the same dice. w h y? SinexTitan (talk) 19:31, 12 January 2026 (UTC)

- This seems to be a regular issue with the abuse filter which absolutely has been talked about before. It's very annoying and in my opinion we need some sort of edit request system or a new group given to users to bypass the filter, but for now I'll just check the abuse log and apply the edit manually myself.

- The issue is when edits are made in-line with a stub notice, as (iirc) the filter checks for edits to the same line as the change Keith (talk) 00:50, 20 January 2026 (UTC)

Idea for a new section
An "Important" / "Must-Reads" / "Starter Pack" / "Essential Reading" section showing the most important articles to view for someone new to the Consumer Rights scene, or just someone unknowing.
Furthermore, the ability to rate an article. Perhaps as a way to show which matters are trending, because of many people having said problem with said device/service. Could be a "Saved me!", "Worked", "Didn't work", where "Saved me!" can only be used maybe once a day, to show which issues a not just trending, but very crucial. These ratings could help place relevant articles at the top of a second section within "Important"/Whatever.
These two sections would give users a place to scroll and skim through, to see if there are any matters relevant for them, like a random product they own, that they didn't know had a Consumer Rights issue.
Additionally; the ability to give pledges to article writers/editors. I'm not fully sure how it would work at the moment, but it would give people a way to support editors that produce important relevant articles. Perhaps the site could take a small cut, which both contributes to funding the server costs or the "legal fund" that Rossman mentioned, but also gives people a bigger incentive to pledge to editors, knowing that some of it goes to supporting the website and its users.

Form pages
I made a change to Form:Company following Discord suggestion #181. I was going to add this to Form:Product and Form:ProductLine but these pages are protected.
So, I am requesting an edit to those two pages to replace "(supported file types = PNG|JPG)" with "(supported file types = JPG, PNG, SVG)" to represent the fact that SVGs are allowed, and also to admin-protect Form:Company since that's an important page.

“Summaries” of articles
I'd like to propose an idea that I think would help people read articles in a rush. Add a box at the top of all long pages (e.g. YouTube, or all that aren't stubs or marked as incomplete) that summarises the article (the incidents the company has been involved in, what it does, etc) in a couple of sentences. Let me know what you think. AnotherConsumerRightsPerson (talk) 15:17, 25 January 2026 (UTC)
