Displacement page was incorrectly locked

Valve forgot to lock the sub page loaded on the displacements. There is a edit button there just for the subpage (https://developer.valvesoftware.com/w/index.php?title=Displacement&action=edit). Note I haven't tried editing to check because of it being locked. Editing might not work. -- User:Rjacobvogel_Fe3

The subpage didn't exist when the page was locked; it was created to exploit a permissions loophole and allow editing on the page despite being locked.
As a side note, you can click "show preview" instead of flooding the edit log with 16 edits.

Account isn't being added to Autoconfirmed users

Resolved. Hello, I'm not sure where to ask this question, but this seems to be the most active Valve operated account, so I'm asking this here. This account (User:WisdomBot) hasn't been added to the Autoconfirmed users group, which is supposed to be assigned to all users who have confirmed their Email. As a result, some actions on this wiki such as moving pages are unable to be performed on this account. This problems seems to have been around for a while, and there doesn't seem to be any fix for it, bar just asking an admin, which is effectively what I'm doing right now. I have changed my Email and made absolutely sure that I've confirmed it, and I'm even in the emailconfirmed group, but I just can't seem to be added. --WisdomBot (talk) 19:28, 5 Jan 2024
