Deadline Hollywood often posts the film scripts of Oscar candidates on their site each year. Previous discussions about the use of scripts on Wikipedia are somewhat ambiguous and hinge on readings of WP:ELNEVER. Dune (2021 film) currently links to one of these scripts in the external link sections and I'm doing a GA review. Is linking to a Deadline Hollywood film script appropriate?

Télam is a state-owned news agency from Argentina. It was closed by president Javier Milei, as part of a program of fiscal austerity to deal with an ongoing crisis. The official page is https://www.telam.com.ar/ which is currently displaying a message that it is closed. A group of former workers started the site https://somostelam.com.ar/ ("we are Telam"), similar to the former Télam page. Should it be included? It makes no mention of its nature, and seems to me as if it was trying to usurp the brand (which still belongs to the government, closure or not). Cambalachero ( talk) 15:02, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
How to get external link Alimohmed23 ( talk) 13:56, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
I was trying to submit the text below at the spam: whitelist page. But no matter what, a small coloured error message popped up saying csrf token error. That's why I can't submit that new thread. It's very frustrating. How do I fix it? Would you be able to help with unblocking this specific WebLink into the whitelist for attaching a ref-link to a company on a page?
Here was my planned text entry in the spam whitelist request page.
Hey. That is the exact page I tried submitting the text on with various edits many times today. It just doesn't work.
This error always popped up at top of page during publishing stage: "Error, edit not published. Invalid CSRF token.". ObiKKa ( talk) 22:34, 9 May 2024 (UTC)
Ooh, thank you. I have checked that new addition over there. I am surprised that it would only work in a desktop/laptop browser (or in difficult circumstances inside a mobile phone browser). Much pleasure. I'll try to add the resolved tag above this section. ObiKKa ( talk) 22:54, 9 May 2024 (UTC)
Hi JTanner. I checked that bug report and feature request page link. Looks interesting. Should I ask over there for why the CSRF Token error keeps preventing me from posting text over in the spam whitelist request page in the Android app? I also tried to make another reply today after my request was accepted and I made the edit with the whitelisted reflink. But that CSRF Token error popped up again there in the app. So I logged into Wikipedia in a mobile browser (Brave) in the same phone and added the reply there.
I have one feature request too. I would like a finder tool during the preview stage of edits in the Android app, not only in the first edit stage. It's coz the huge pages would take a long time to scroll down on the thin portrait-style phone screen.

In this edit a SPA account replaced the correct external link – www.balboaacademy.edu.pa – with a gambling spamlink that is almost identical (in fact it looks at first glance to be more likely to be the real site).
To go to the trouble (and expense) of setting up a .org to hijack links to this one minor school in Panama seems excessive on the part of the spammer… unless they'll be back to add it again and again until it sticks. Would we blacklist for that risk, or is it too small a risk? Is there an edit filter it could be added to perhaps? 2A00:23C5:50E8:EE01:74C9:F21C:7D37:E976 ( talk) 14:09, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
