Re: Update the wiki on aur helper

Please add a topic about your helper to Talk page for AUR helpers .
That should be enough to alert wiki maintainers.

Where did you get that domain from? Please don't tell me you asked an LLM.

Re: Update the wiki on aur helper

I've never heard of the talk page being blocked for newer users .

Login to the wiki, goto https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Talk:AUR_helpers , click Edit source

If it does block you, there should be a message . Please post the exact message .

Re: Update the wiki on aur helper

That's the message on the aur helper edit page, the talk page has its own settings and should not show that.

Doublecheck the url you see that message on.
If you're sure it is 

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Talk:AUR_helpers 

take a screenshot and upload that to a public image hosting site.
Post the link to the image.
