== Add "summary" in the summary box header == |

As pointed out on Meta, the header of the summary box should read "Terms of Use summary", to make it clear that the box's contents are not the entire terms of use. While there are two smaller-type sentences that suggest that same fact, this suggestion seems clear and appropriate. [[user:sj|SJ]] [[user talk:sj|+]] 09:22, 21 February 2014 (UTC) |

Revision as of 12:26, 8 January 2022
- To discuss these Terms of Use and possible changes, please see this Talk page on Meta Wiki.
- For a short summation of differences between the previous Terms of Use and the new policy that came into effect on May 25, 2012, please see New Terms of use.
- For discussion about the paid contributions amendment of 2014, see here.
Missing entries in collapsed section overview on mobile
In the mobile view of this page on smartphones, the sections "13. Disputes and Jurisdiction", "14. Disclaimers", and "15. Limitation on Liability" are missing in the list of collapsed sections, because of the highlight div surrounding them. (They appear fine in the TOC.) This appears to be caused by phab:T60541. Regards, Tbayer (talk) 09:49, 18 December 2015 (UTC)
Addition of text to section 4
Per this RfC on meta I plan to add the following text after:
"a statement in the edit summary accompanying any paid contributions."
"In addition we require those involved with paid editing on Wikipedia to link on their user page to all other active accounts through which they advertise paid Wikipedia editing business. These links may be removed a week after the advertisement for paid Wikipedia editing has been taken down."
To the Q and A I plan to add:
"Required linking to accounts involved with advertising paid editing"
"Claims on Wikipedia that a user has failed to provide a link without solid evidence is considered harassment and is potentially sanctionable. The requirement to link to other sites were these advertisements exist is primarily to be used to address impersonations of Wikipedians in good standing outside of Wikipedia."
