AdvancedSiteNotices is prohibited from linking to external brands?

Someone believes that the Chinese Wikipedia News and Chinese Wikipedia AdvancedSiteNotices should not fully mention brand names such as Telegram, Instagram, Google Form, or use external links to these, and this needs to be fixed on Phabricator T375253 immediately. I find this to be completely unreasonable and deeply regrettable, and I hope to seek more opinions from you all. Since your wiki also has the same situation and this problem should be fixed very soon in the future, I suggest that you reach a community consensus and then submit an opinion to Phabricator T375253. They said: "I'm pretty sure you're not allowed to link to or even mention the brand names Telegram or Instagram or Google from a sitenotice. you can't from a CentralNotice, I don't see why a different policy should apply here. you can link to those pages from a page on your wiki and link from the sitenotice to that page on your wiki. but not directly from sitenotice to the external site. this is urgent, must be fixed immediately. (unless you can show us where someone said this is ok?)"--Kitabc12345 (वार्ता) ०९:०८, २१ सितम्बर २०२४ (+0545)[उत्तर दें]

Dear Wikimedia Community,

We are excited to announce the release of Wikifile-transfer v2, an enhanced tool to streamline media transfers across Wikimedia projects. Wikifile-transfer supports users in moving non-free images across wiki projects. This tool is helpful for contributors managing media across multiple language wikis.

You can learn more about it here: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Indic-TechCom/Tools/Wikifile-transfer/v2

You can try the new version here: https://wikifile-transfer.toolforge.org/#/

We invite you to join our second community call on November 10, 2024, at 18:00 IST (6:00 PM). This meeting is an opportunity to discuss the new features, share feedback, and connect with us.

Please add your name at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Indic-TechCom/Tools/Wikifile-transfer/v2#Community_call.

Since this is a major new release, some bugs may still exist. We encourage you to report any issues you encounter to help us improve the tool further. We're looking forward to your feedback as we continue refining WikiFile-Transfer to meet the needs of our community.

Regards -ParasharSarthak (वार्ता)
