Hello everyone, currently, some sysops (including me) and one non-sysop user are having an on-wiki discussion on Serbian Wikipedia, regarding disabling page creation there, because lately (some) anonymous and new users don't have peace and are "making vandalisms" (I'm sure that there is a better word, so feel free to correct me if I'm wrong) by creating new pages.
See this screenshot as an example: https://i.imgur.com/wpvq4kG.png As well and https://sr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Википедија:Администраторска_табла#Неприкладан_садржај and https://sr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Википедија:Администраторска_табла# Ограничења%20за%20креирање%20нових%20страница? I know that these topics could be confusing, but the second one is more about technical stuff. I'm aware of the procedure for configuration changes on Wikimedia's projects regarding gaining community consensus, so I would happily start RfC there. Is this something that could be done, from the perspective of limitations for configuration changes? The non-sysop user, which I mentioned here, made a suggestion (which I'm considering as a compromise to not fully interfere with concept of Wikipedia works) to keep creating pages in the Draft namespace as an available option, like on English (and Persian) Wikipedia. See https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/operations/mediawiki-config/+/223497. I'm looking forward to responses, questions, suggestions, and a nice discussion. :) Best regards, Zoran P. S. I wanted to make a draft patch in Gerrit for this, but I'm unsure of where to start, so help about that would be really appreciated.
