To be fair minutes for meetings shouldn’t be able to be edited by general editors anyway. I don’t really understand the issue you’ve described Deryck, but minutes of AGMs are legal documents that we need auditors and the membership to approve, so it’d be grand if edits can be suggested to a member of staff such as myself or Lucy as common practice rather than made to the page itself.
Many thanks for highlighting the issue though.

Hi Deryck
I'll ask someone to look into this tomorrow. In the meantime, feel free to ping me the links and I will add them in.
Thanks for flagging this up.

I've just tried to edit the WMUK wiki to add a few internal links to the 2020 AGM minutes but saw that I was blocked due to a block imported by the global block importer. I had logged in.
On further investigation I realised that there's a WM global softblock on my IP range, but the WMUK wiki imported it as a hardblock. Can this be adjusted?
