Welcome to the Community Portal!

The Community Portal is the main talk page for the Scratch Wiki. On the Community Portal, Wikians can discuss issues related to the Wiki, ask questions, and more.

We recommend that before you ask a question, you search the archives first to make sure it has not been answered before:

Add thanks extension

This extension allows you to publicly thank other Wikians for their edits, kinda like the {{Thank you}} template. It is installed on Wikipedia and many other wikis as as well. It does bring some problems though since it's like saying "support" on a suggestion without explaining why. I'll ultimately leave it to the admins.
A-MARIO-PLAYER ^{💬talk | 📜contribs} 16:07, 13 January 2026 (UTC)

Doesn't this effectively exist in the form of {{Thankyou}}, though?

A little thank you...
for helping the Wiki.
Hugs, A wikian

You can set your own reason for thanking users using the template, like so:

A little thank you...
for giving me that waffle recipe.
Hugs, A wikian

Unless I'm misunderstanding something, I don't see a good reason for there to be three "thank you" templates.

minikiwigeek2 (talk, contributions⁽⁶⁴⁹⁾, scratch) 16:40, 13 January 2026 (UTC)

@Minikiwigeek2 This wouldn't be a template on a page, it would send you a notification. This was originally going to be added at the same time as notifications, but wasn't. I personally would support adding it, there are plenty of times I've wanted to use it for a small thank-you, but haven't, and a template/page edit would be too major for every little thing (and get a bit annoying eventually).

Mrsrec (talk | contribs) 16:41, 13 January 2026 (UTC)

@Mrsrec Ah my bad, I misread the suggestion. Considering this system works well enough on Wikipedia, I also would support adding it.

minikiwigeek2 (talk, contributions⁽⁶⁴⁹⁾, scratch) 16:56, 14 January 2026 (UTC)

I'm a big fan of this feature. If it's not too much trouble to add, I think it'd be a nice touch.

Proposing logo 2

The proposed logo. I believe that this will be a threat to goodness.

It's time for a logo change. The current as of outdated and blue is also outdated. Current cat a purple colour, modern logo and credits made it better.

Scratchtheguy1 (talk | contributions) 12:23, 19 January 2026 (UTC)

@Scratchtheguy1 I'm a bit neutral - the wiki logo has been the same for over 12 years because it's never really needed to change. Changing the logo to be more up-to-date is like banning people from playing the NES because it's 40 years old. I do think it could use a touch-up though - the fact the missing space at the top left of the logo is grey is clearly a leftover from the Wikipedia logo that the existing logo is based off.

A-MARIO-PLAYER ^{💬talk | 📜contribs} 22:29, 20 January 2026 (UTC)

@A-MARIO-PLAYER, but now I fixed it and I made it 1005 vector!

Scratchtheguy1 (talk | contributions) 08:43, 21 January 2026 (UTC)

I join Scratchtheguy1 on the idea of fixing the grey leftover. I don't really think the wiki logo needs a modernization-focused change though. It's a logo, so it needs to be easily recognizable even when minimized. One possibility is to use Scratch's S instead of the scratch cat, since it's currently not easy to recognize as a favicon, even on computer.

recent changes to TOS

does anyone think a page or something about this "disaster" on the wiki would be apropriate? especially counting because they are illegaly using our data for AI training and they didnt ask, which they HAVE TO DO to still comply with COPPA.
GvYoutube Talk Contribs 02:21, 23 January 2026 (UTC)

I guess no, because our Wiki is based off Mediawiki, which doesn't secretly illegally harvest our data for AI training without permision and they still comply with COPPA and GDPR. Edit 25 jan 2026: Whops, wrong info...

Scratchtheguy1 (talk | contributions) 07:08, 23 January 2026 (UTC)

If a page is made, it would most likely be about controversies and misconceptions. Firstly, COPPA does not apply to nonprofit organisations. Secondly, using "your data" (mainly Scratch projects) for AI training is not only not illegal, but potentially a better alternative than to using commercial third-party AI tools which would not respect your privacy. Those tools can be used for things such as filtering content in projects-- which has never existed in the 19 years this website has, and should!

New redirect?

Resolved ^{(since an unknown date)}

For Scratch Wiki:Guidelines, maybe a new redirect named "Wiki Guidelines" and "Scratch Wiki Guidelines" after all it is quicker to type as the main link has a colon and not everyone is going to know the shortcut feature, like wannabe scratch wiki editors or new editors.

Scratch Team

Could the Scratch team please acknowledge that I'm an administrator on the German wiki?

I'm already getting warnings because I tell new editors they can log in with a username and password since I created the user account for the wiki.

Am I no longer allowed to tell new wiki editors this?

This is incredibly demotivating!

Couldn't I also be allowed to send the same message to multiple users in succession?

Does it really have to be made so artificially difficult for a wiki administrator?
Lichtrebell (talk | contribs) 13:24, 26 January 2026 (UTC)

@Lichtrebell: Don't worry, this is not just you. Myself and the rest of the English wiki administration also received many warnings in the past for the same reason. We contacted the Scratch Team and they did something to ensure our messages stopped getting flagged as spam. This has mostly fixed the problem for us. I presume since your messages aren't the same as ours they're still getting flagged—the best course of action is to (respectfully) contact the Scratch Team directly and let them know about what's happening.

ENDYOURENITE (talk | contribs) 00:28, 27 January 2026 (UTC)

@ENDYOURENITE It is an automatically-added category that came out of the box with MediaWiki. Per the description, it is automatically added for pages that contain "an image whose size contains an extra px suffix, like 100pxpx."

Scratchtheguy1 (talk | contributions) 20:11, 28 January 2026 (UTC)

@Scratchtheguy1 I'm not sure what you're asking here? If you want your projects taken down, you can always demand it with the GDPR (as far as I'm aware, the ST will respect the request even if you are not an EU citizen).

Scratchtheguy1 (talk | contributions) 15:01, 30 January 2026 (UTC)

@Scratchtheguy1 Your account "being safe" is not a question we can actually give an answer to since you never actually defined what "safe" means. Safe from what exactly? Our privacy policy has not changed, and we remain compliant with all relevant data privacy laws. We also are not implementing, nor do we have any plans to implement, AI features on the Wiki.

How to search the Community Portal archives?

The very first thing the Community Portal says to do is search the archives to see if a question has been asked before. However, the "Search this talk page and its archives" button at the top of this page currently searches all pages on the wiki instead of the archives. This makes searching the archives much more cumbersome and tiring than it should be.

While asking some of the same questions over and over again and getting one-on-one responses from other editors is nice, I think being able to search these archives for answers would be enormously useful. Could this problem be fixed in the near future? Are there any ways around it, besides searching all 121 archives with Ctrl+F? Thanks!

On the technical side of things, I tried seeing what was wrong with the archive search bar. Its wikitext looks like this:

<inputbox>
type=search
prefix=Scratch Wiki talk:Community Portal#
ns5=1
width=60
searchbuttonlabel=Search this talk page and its archives
</inputbox>

It uses a MediaWiki extension, InputBox, and is clearly intended to search the archives judging from prefix. However, the extension's documentation for the argument states:

Note this only works with certain search back-ends, currently only Extension:CirrusSearch. Defaults to empty string (search all pages).

This means the search backend currently in use by the Scratch Wiki may not support searching by prefix. It is possible this worked in the past, perhaps prior to the Scratch Wiki moving domains or some other server update, but I do not know enough about the wiki's history to say that confidently, and have no idea how this would go unnoticed for so long; it is possible this is simply a recent issue no one reported yet. Ironically, one cannot search the Community Portal archives to see if this has been brought up before.

I'm not very experienced with wiki stuff, so how to best resolve this is beyond me.
Endless-Ocean (talk | contribs) 04:12, 8 February 2026 (UTC)

It's possible that this used to work at one point but has since broken. It probably is worth fixing.

Sprunki Page Undeletion

A user, StrongestFishEver8, is discussing the deletion of the page on Sprunki, and wants it to be undeleted. They don't have a wiki account, but are discussing it on the forum topic. If anyone wishes to discuss it, it would be best to do so on the forum topic so that they can respond! (I am just putting this here, I don't know much more about it.)
Endless-Ocean (talk | contribs) 16:50, 18 February 2026 (UTC)

I don't thing Sprunki page should be "undeleted" (restored), because the WHOLE FANDOM IS ULTIMATELY DISSALOWED on Scratch, because it's too easy to make bad projects out of it. Even a few other platforms that I think they aren't allowed have been ALSO SERVERELY RESTRICTED due to the amount of intense messy gore and hard-to-manage content.

Scratchtheguy1 (talk | contributions) 19:18, 18 February 2026 (UTC)

That makes sense, but surely the significance to Scratch culture, as well as what I hear to have been an in-depth article, is enough to keep it documented on the wiki? I'm not saying it shouldn't be banned, nor that we should be encouraging it or discussing the inappropriate elements of it in detail, but this is the Scratch Wiki, and among other things it is supposed to document Scratch culture. Anyway, what I meant earlier is you should discuss it with the user requesting this in the forum topic so that they can respond!

[TEMPLATE SUGGESTION] Disclaimer?

DISCLAIMER: {{{1}}}

Note: {{{2}}}

This template is basically a warning template, but extremely visible and more serious. I can see how this template could be used for (like anything related to hacking, any mistake made can lead to major or catastrophic outcomes, anything that violates the ToS or things that the reader should absolutely necessarily know about.

For trying the use the template, read the documentation.

Also, I know the warning template exists, but the problem is that it is a bit too subtle and this templates make this obviously can be seen.

Thoughts?
Endyourenite|Talk| Contribs⁵⁴⁶|Scratch| 10:07, 28 February 2026 (UTC)

I don't think the warning template is "too subtle". It's already in bold and has an icon. It's quite visible. Also, those headers are generally put at the top of a page for information on the type/status of article, not information in the article itself.

Mrsrec (talk | contribs) 20:10, 28 February 2026 (UTC)

Chose one.

Edit the template "External programs

The reason why it should be edited is because the first thing, that children may navigate to an NFSW Wikipedia page, even some interwikies there (Such as the Bulgarian one) has links to privat messaging services. Secondly, there should be more text there, as the reader should be informed what if they enter an external website. I once clicked on the Experemental Viewer's "however, still available on the ScratchR repository as a download here.", leading to a possible dangerous website with a username and password asking, as I guess it's a phishing thing.

This article has links to websites or programs outside of Scratch. External programs may be phishing once, have malware, shock (screamer) ones (Such as NFSW gory and gross ones), browser and device and hijacking scripts. Please click on any links at your own risk, as we do not know how secure or bad are the websites. Viewer descresion may be adviced.

Display a browser pop-up, that the user will go to an external website

It's very common for people on the internet to ignore important warnings. So let's decrease the ignoration with this(may have 3 pop-ups) (Can be customized in prefrences if possible): This is a serious warning. This is not a virus. This is by the official Scratch Wik team. You are now trying to leave Scratch Wiki. External Programs may allow access for hackers to steal your data, get malware, get your software or device exploited or view innapropriate images (NFSW, gorss, or gore ones). Do not let your curiosity win, as you may get into trouble, witch also things you may not forget. Are you sure you want to go outside of Scratch Wiki?

Second pop-up:

Are you REALLY sure, that you want to exit the wiki?

Final pop-up:

This is your last warning. We will NOT be repsonsable for you issues after you enter the website. Type 'CONFIRM" in all caps to confirm.
Scratchtheguy1 (talk | contributions) 21:31, 1 March 2026 (UTC)

@Scratchtheguy1 In my opinion you are treating external sites the same way as a nuclear bomb. The current system is enough.

No support. If you think a link is phishing, report any revision of that page that has the link, and then remove it from the page yourself.

Edit 16:15, 9 March 2026 (UTC): In addition, only approved users can edit the wiki in the first place. They are trusted not to add links to inappropriate content. If they do they could just as easily face a permanent block from the wiki. Those types of links are what you would see on the dark web, not on a kids' site.

April Fools' editing is now open

Hi everyone,

Since it's now March, April Fools' day pages are now able to be edited. However, before you go in, please read the April Fools' Day rules (even if you edited the pages last year, read them again), and be aware of the following things in particular:

Editing April Fools' Day content is a privilege. Violations of the rules may result in you losing those privileges.
Please make actual high quality content. Low quality content (determined at the sole discretion of the EWs and admins) is liable to be deleted without notice, and repeated low quality edits may result in loss of April Fools' editing privileges.
- Use proper spelling and grammar with complete sentences and organization as you would for an actual article
- Make sure the content in some way relates to the actual title of the article (for example, the Sprite article is about the soda)
- Make sure the content is actually coherent and not just a string of unrelated sentences
- Do not mention specific users other than Scratch Team members, and even then only in a respectful way (new mentions of Kaj are not allowed; existing ones are allowed to remain)
Do not make an excessive amount of edits to articles, and keep your focus on improving the mainspace articles. Excessive April Fools' editing may result in loss on April Fools' editing privileges.
Do not edit war. Edit wars will be handled the same way they would for a mainspace article, and users who do not follow the established procedures will receive the appropriate consequences.

Please have fun with this, but have fun responsibly. The April Fools' Day section is not a free pass to spam or write low quality content. These rules have been added due to April Fools' editing having gotten way out of hand in years past, and it's a tradition we don't want to get rid of, but if we can't manage it effectively, then we will have to follow the lead of the forums and ban it entirely in future years.
jvvg (talk | contribs) 21:37, 1 March 2026 (UTC)

@Jvvg Few questions:

Define low quality.
"excessive amount" so how much edits exactly?
Do I just get my privileges off if I accidentally made one spelling or grammar error?

Endyourenite|Talk| Contribs⁵⁴⁶|Scratch| 07:40, 2 March 2026 (UTC)

@ENDYOURENITE Low quality means not following the guidelines I specified in my original message. Specific interpretations are up to the discretion of the EWs and admins, and we are intentionally not being more specific to allow us to make decisions on the fly and avoid people following the letter of the law but not the spirit. Excessive amount is not a well-defined quantity, but basically means if you make enough edits that it clogs up Recent Changes or it's clear you are only here to edit April Fools' pages and not make any mainspace contributions we will determine that as excessive. We will give warnings before revoking any privileges.

jvvg (talk | contribs) 16:29, 2 March 2026 (UTC)

@Jvvg

1. Sorry.

2. Oh. I just prefer being specific because I don't want to get punished from vague wording so that's why I asked, but fair enough.

3. Ah. But another question, does intentional incorrect spelling/grammar has different consequences or the same?

Endyourenite|Talk| Contribs⁵⁴⁶|Scratch| 17:29, 2 March 2026 (UTC)

@ENDYOURENITE Intentional spelling/grammar errors must have immediately obvious humor value to them and actually add to the joke of the article.

jvvg (talk | contribs) 18:40, 2 March 2026 (UTC)

┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ @ENDYOURENITE, jvvg, A-MARIO-PLAYER The general rule of thumb I think should be that the point is to write pages that are fun to read. Not to write pages that are fun to write. In short, April Fools' pages aren't about "letting loose"; making a good April Fools' page may actually be harder than making a good normal page.

Mrsrec (talk | contribs) 18:44, 2 March 2026 (UTC)

Now that the edits have started trickling in, I want to emphasize that everyone should focus on quality over quantity. Instead of just putting a lot of jokes on a page (or on a bunch of pages), put in a small number of well-written ones. Also please try to focus on actually making whole pages, rather than just a collection of individual disconnected jokes. A page should actually all fit together. In general, editors not following these rules will be given a talk page notification about it, and continuing to contribute low-quality content after a notification will result in losing the privilege of editing April Fools pages for the rest of the month. Also, if a page or content you created is deleted, do not re-create it unless you are actually addressing the reason it was deleted in the first page.

jvvg (talk | contribs) 23:22, 4 March 2026 (UTC)

We are also now repurposing the Wiki Standards April Fools templates to mark articles that need improvement. Feel free to add it to any page that you see that falls short of the standards listed in the rules or this thread, and if you're looking for April Fools pages to improve, the pages tagged with that template are a good place to start.

Okay, we've implemented a workaround for what may be a deeper issue. Please try again.

April Fools' Day Standards Category

I'm suggesting to add this on the AF page of Wiki Standards: <includeonly>{{#ifeq: {{{cat}}} | no | | [[Category:April Fools' Day Standards]]}}</includeonly>

Because there's a big rise of pages having the template and it's repurposed like Wiki Standards, this is getting more unorganized and I want to have a category that has the tenplate so me and the other contributors can improve the pages.

@ENDYOURENITE You can use this link to see the places it's transcluded. I am trying to avoid more infrastructure setup than absolutely has to be done for this, since April Fools' Day isn't the main point of the Wiki anyway.

Please add the extension that has mobileonly div tag

On articles, they display differently on mobile and desktop and when I fix weird visual bugs on articles it worsen on desktop because different displays. I suggest having one to fix the issues that are only on mobile.

@ENDYOURENITE IMO the issue isn't with a lack of clear styles, but rather the infobox not being wide enough in the first place. I could fix that.

@ENDYOURENITE I've adjusted the minimum width of infoboxes. Devtools testing shows this works to an extent. Try now and see if it looks better.

@ENDYOURENITE Yeah, don't think that's gonna be fixed easily without configuring the wiki itself, which I can't do
