This is basically a request for additional attributes in
Extension:TitleBlacklist for Marathi Wikipedia.The extension is already in
implementation at Marathi Language Wikipedia .


Please do refer
[http://mr.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E0%A4%B5%E0%A4%BF%E0%A4%B6%E0%A5%87%E0%A4%B7:%E0%A4%86%E0%A4%B5%E0%A5%83%E0%A4%A4%E0%A5%8D%E0%A4%A4%E0%A5%80]
and  http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:TitleBlacklist



*Additional attribute/feature request is "attributes which can provide feature
that will block roman script letters 'a to z' in both variants small and
capital if occurred any where in the title". 

** This feature should be definable to local sysops to block titles in given
specific name spaces.



Which Namespaces you are planning to apply and which namespaces you are
planning to exclude 
:We want to apply this to following name spaces and want to exclude rest of the
name spaces (Prefer that this remains definable at local level for sysop)

मुख्य (main namespace/article namespace), चर्चा (Talk Namspace), दालन (Portal)
, दालन चर्चा (Portal Talk)  आणि वर्ग (Category) वर्ग चर्चा (Category Talk) 


Do you have local consensus 

:Yes very much , Please refer
[http://mr.wikipedia.org/wiki/विकिपीडिया:चावडी/तांत्रिक_प्रश्न#Blocking_of_article_titles_in_roman_script_by_anon_and_new_users]


The main purpose to have this feature "Blocking of article titles in roman
script by anon and new users" 


The main reason why do we want this feature is "Since 50% of spam edits on mr
wiki (although is unintentional test edits) are coming from new users (non
auto-confirmed) and anonymous users.


Why through this extension: Extension is already implemented on mr wiki and
most of wikis. Extension already gives good amount of freedom and options to
local sysops at local level.

This improvement will not only benefit to mr-wiki but many non roman alphabate
wikis
