This is the first barnstar I've given, and barnstars seem to be going a bit out of fashion, but I just feel compelled to give it because I've been running into your edits all over the place. It's especially impressive that you've only had an account for 8 months and made so many improvements to the wiki. eπi (talk | contribs) 17:01, 18 May 2019 (UTC)

Please assist me in creating a page akin to these similar pages

Latest comment: 5 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

Can you explain how my draft for Same Same But Different Festival differs significantly and or substantially, other than its legacy (or lack thereof), from Stagecoach Festival (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stagecoach_Festival) or Lightning in a Bottle Festival (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightning_in_a_Bottle)

Other than the robustness of available references which are admittedly few for this newer festival, it seems to me to be fundamentally similar enough to warrant fairer consideration.

Thank you for your time and effort. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2402:800:4170:a10a:b59a:491d:99c0:2e91 (talk) 05:14, 19 May 2019 (UTC)

Empty TPE requests

Latest comment: 5 years ago4 comments2 people in discussion

If there's an empty request, like at Template talk:AFC submission, it's OK to remove it. I usually leave an edit summary of "rm empty request". Some mark it nd, as you did, and some remove it. It seems to be one of the few situations where it's OK to remove someone's edits from a talk page. Hope that helps, Cabayi (talk) 06:47, 19 May 2019 (UTC)

@Cabayi: Thanks for letting me know. Hopefully @Suffusion of Yellow sets 987 (hist · log) to disallow or warn soon, that should reduce the number of empty requests. --DannyS712 (talk) 06:51, 19 May 2019 (UTC)
Nice. I do like fixes that prevent mistakes rather than forcing us to correct and unintentionally belittle novices and mistake-makers. I'm still unreasonably chuffed with how well this fix has worked. Cabayi (talk) 08:44, 19 May 2019 (UTC)
@Cabayi: Yeah, that's also what I prefer to explain that the edit request was unclear, rather than just remove it --DannyS712 (talk) 08:47, 19 May 2019 (UTC)

Tech News: 2019-21

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Recent changes

Problems

  • File descriptions for files from Commons were not shown properly on other Wikimedia wikis for a few days. For example the image descriptions and license information were missing. This has now been fixed. [1][2]
  • Some diffs show an error message when you try to see them. The developers are working on fixing it. It could be because of some edit comments. [3][4]

Changes later this week

  •   The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 21 May. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 22 May. It will be on all wikis from 23 May (calendar).

Meetings

  •     You can join the technical advice meeting on IRC. During the meeting, volunteer developers can ask for advice. The meeting will be on 22 May at 15:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Future changes

  • The content translation tool on Wikipedia can use machine translations. There is a system to stop translations where the editors do not fix machine translation mistakes. This warns or stops them if they seem to just copy what the machine translation gives them. If this system is too strict or not strict enough you can tell the language team. [5]
  •   The Wikidata wbeditentity API endpoint will remove all aliases if the request includes an empty alias. This is how it supposed to work. It has not been working this way because of a bug. This will start on 12 June. [6]

Template:Editnotices/Page/Rudeness

Latest comment: 5 years ago3 comments2 people in discussion

Hi DannyS712. My interest having been piqued by this VPT discussion, I decided to check out list of templates which transclude Template:Parenthetical referencing editnotice. The first one in the list is Template:Editnotices/Page/Rudeness. However, as far as I can tell, Rudeness does not use parenthetical referencing. On that basis, would it be appropriate for me to nominate Template:Editnotices/Page/Rudeness for deletion? Thanks. DH85868993 (talk) 06:22, 21 May 2019 (UTC)

The same templates are used for Harvard references and parenthetical references, because they are just different formats of the inline citation with the same principle of not using ref tags and defining the references separately --DannyS712 (talk) 06:24, 21 May 2019 (UTC)
Cool. Thanks for the explanation. DH85868993 (talk) 06:26, 21 May 2019 (UTC)

Your offer

Latest comment: 5 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

to create those Template:Parenthetical referencing editnotice/editnotices for me is muchly appreciated especially because - duh on me! - I didn't realize I'm not a template editor. I don't really have a List right now but I might be pestering you from time to time to create these for articles I come across that are riddled with Harvard cite errors and warnings. Frankly, most of the articles that use Harvard cites are riddled with errors...if not for "importScript('User:Ucucha/HarvErrors.js');" on my common.js page I guess I wouldn't be able to fix them because I'd never even see them. Shearonink (talk) 19:07, 21 May 2019 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Angry Birds on The Run

Latest comment: 5 years ago4 comments2 people in discussion

Hello DannyS712. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Angry Birds on The Run, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: notable creator, notable franchise, consider merging per WP:ATD-M. Thank you. SoWhy 06:00, 22 May 2019 (UTC)

@SoWhy: Given the lack of sourced, would you be okay with a redirect until there is coverage? --DannyS712 (talk) 06:01, 22 May 2019 (UTC)
Both are fine, especially since Angry Birds already mentions the YouTube series. For future reference, if merging or redirecting is possible, just do so instead of tagging for deletion (since WP:ATD is a policy that also applies to speedy deletion). Regards SoWhy 06:04, 22 May 2019 (UTC)

Bot tasks

Latest comment: 5 years ago9 comments2 people in discussion

I don't want to step on your toes, but please update User:DannyS712 bot/tasks so that it shows which bot has done which trials. Note that "Trial 13" is now listed under the correct name for the bot. Please also make sure bot requests are filed under the bot name that will be doing the job. Primefac (talk) 16:06, 23 May 2019 (UTC)

@Primefac: what specifically are you referring to? All tasks so far have been done by DannyS712 bot, except for the one listed as bot II. In the future, I'll make sure to file other tasks properly. When other tasks are sent to trial I update accordingly... Thanks, --DannyS712 (talk) 16:09, 23 May 2019 (UTC)
I guess I meant listing it in a separate section as "bot II tasks" or similar; it's not technically Task 13 of "Bot I" any more. Primefac (talk) 19:11, 23 May 2019 (UTC)
@Primefac: I was numbering them for myself, since I don't want multiple task 13s, even with different bots. Is not the "account: DannyS712 bot II" enough? --DannyS712 (talk) 19:37, 23 May 2019 (UTC)
You're welcome to do whatever you please; I was just letting you know that DannyS712 bot 13 doesn't exist and DannyS712 bot II does. If you want to file Task 42 as DannyS712 bot II 42 I suppose you're welcome to do so, as I'm not aware of any "rules" regarding the numbering of tasks. But, it will have to be filed under bot II (and similarly for bot III). Primefac (talk) 20:03, 23 May 2019 (UTC)
@Primefac: okay. Is it okay to create redirects for such tasks? --DannyS712 (talk) 20:05, 23 May 2019 (UTC)
Sure, I've created things like User:PrimeBOT/24 so that my links are shorter. Primefac (talk) 20:06, 23 May 2019 (UTC)
@Primefac: no I meant like redirecting ...bot 50 to ..bot II 2 --DannyS712 (talk) 20:08, 23 May 2019 (UTC)
See Wikipedia:Bots/Noticeboard#Naming_conventions. Primefac (talk) 20:20, 23 May 2019 (UTC)

Latest comment: 5 years ago3 comments2 people in discussion

I'm not sure about the protocol for this situation, but Baker was an alumni of both Harvard Law School and Harvard University, as distinct from the law school. Perhaps we need a separate category specifically for Harvard undergraduate alumni, but lacking that, it seems incorrect to omit him from the supercategory. bd2412 T 23:10, 23 May 2019 (UTC)

@BD2412: well, the category is tagged as overpopulated, and so I was removing pages that are in subcategories. If he also attended harvard college, then you can add Category:Harvard College alumni --DannyS712 (talk) 23:13, 23 May 2019 (UTC)

I want to nominate all the templates in Category:Fs team templates Russia as these templates are just wrappers used instead of a simple link and from the 30 I spot checked, they are all red links. --Gonnym (talk) 21:13, 26 May 2019 (UTC)

Thank you, I appreciate that. The comment: "A set of Russian futsal club templates which are just wrappers for simple links. A lot (most maybe) of the links are red links. The templates should be deleted and usages should be replaced with a direct link to the team article." --Gonnym (talk) 21:17, 26 May 2019 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of User talk:Amir Ali shaik official

Latest comment: 5 years ago3 comments2 people in discussion
 

A tag has been placed on your user page, User talk:Amir Ali shaik official, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be advertising which only promotes or publicises someone or something. Promotional editing of any kind is not permitted, whether it be promotion of a person, company, product, group, service, belief, or anything else. This is a violation of our policies regarding acceptable use of user pages — user pages are intended for active editors of Wikipedia to communicate with one another as part of the process of creating encyclopedic content, and should not be mistaken for free webhosting resources or advertising space. Please read the guidelines on spam, the guidelines on user pages, and, especially, our FAQ for Organizations.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. ___CAPTAIN MEDUSAtalk 10:56, 27 May 2019 (UTC)

Thanks re. disambiguation plus query

Latest comment: 5 years ago5 comments4 people in discussion

Thanks for pointing out that disambiguation pages should be created after, rather than before a situation arises where one is needed. I'm not sure if you read the message on my talk page regarding the issue I had with my sandbox, which unfortunatley deletion of the disambiguation page has not resolved. If you are able, could you please give me some advice on how to sort this out. Many thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Edwin of Northumbria (talk • contribs) 07:13, 29 May 2019 (UTC)

Speedy Deletion of Naples United FC

Latest comment: 5 years ago9 comments4 people in discussion

@DannyS712: The Naples United FC page should not be deleted for the following reasons: Notable team, most clubs in the league have their own wikipedia page, proof of existence, and passes WP:NFOOTY. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Matthewishere0 (talk • contribs) 01:30, 31 May 2019 (UTC)

@Matthewishere0: Proving existence isn't enough - it has to be notable, and an AfD concluded that the club wasn't --DannyS712 (talk) 01:39, 31 May 2019 (UTC)
I'm reasonably sure that it would not be notable. However, I'm not sure that G4 because it must be nearly substantially identical. I would recommend replacing it with A7 or PRODing it. StudiesWorld (talk) 01:44, 31 May 2019 (UTC) (corrected: 01:46, 31 May 2019 (UTC))
@StudiesWorld: As a non-admin I can't tell if it is identical, nearly identical, or nothing like it. Given that the page was re-deleted 3 weeks ago for G4, I think its likely that G4 applies, but we'll see --DannyS712 (talk) 01:46, 31 May 2019 (UTC)
@DannyS712: @StudiesWorld: In the older deletion review that happened in March 2017, the club had still not played their first game yet; it was only being announced as a future team. Now the club is listed on the league's website ([9]). There are also stats of the team actually playing this season ([10]), so it easily passes WP:NFOOTY. I can also include reliable sources and references to back up the information, so the reason for speedy deletion being just G4 isn't fair for the page. Matthewishere0 (talk) 02:10, 31 May 2019 (UTC)
@Matthewishere0: Wgolf tagged it for salting, so they might know more about it than I do - Wgolf? --DannyS712 (talk) 02:22, 31 May 2019 (UTC)
Matthewishere0, WP:NFOOTY does not apply to teams and is quite explicit about that matter. The guidelines which would would apply are the WP:ORG and then, WP:GNG. I have not found any significant coverage of the organization, therefore I think it would fail at AfD for the same notability reasons. It has also been deleted as G4, so presumably the content of the pages remained similar. StudiesWorld (talk) 10:18, 31 May 2019 (UTC)
I tagged it to be salted since it has been created multiple times recently. Which is basically the only reason why I salted it, I don't know really that much about it-sorry. Wgolf (talk) 02:23, 31 May 2019 (UTC)
@Wgolf: In that case I'll just leave it for an admin, who can actually compare it with the deleted page DannyS712 (talk) 02:25, 31 May 2019 (UTC)

Women in Red

Hi there, DannyS712, and welcome to Women in Red. I must say I'm impressed by how active you have been during the comparatively short time you've been on Wikipedia. I'm pleased to see you are now interested in contributing more biographies of women. In this connection, you might find it useful to look through our Ten Simple Rules. Please let me know if you run into any difficulties or need assistance.--Ipigott (talk) 07:12, 1 June 2019 (UTC)

Hi DannyS712, is it a coincidence that I was inspired by Women in Red (or does Wikipedia track my browsing history now?) to start creating articles for unrecognized top Nigerian women on Wikipedia. I'm doing this in my spare time as a programmer so sorry about terribly incomplete edits. I was in a Wikimedia conference in 2015 in Ethiopia and have wanted to contribute since but I think I'm still to get proper hang of it. Opatachibueze (talk) 07:40, 1 June 2019 (UTC)

DYK for Nancy Pelosi

Latest comment: 5 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion
 

On 2 June 2019, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Nancy Pelosi, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Nancy Pelosi (pictured) is the only woman to have served as Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, and the first former Speaker to return to the post since 1955? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Nancy Pelosi. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Nancy Pelosi), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Wikidata weekly summary #367

Latest comment: 5 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion
 
Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.
  • Development
    • Specify license of mediawiki/Wikibase/WikibaseLexeme ontology (phab:T216842)
    • Enable bugfix on beta for wbeditentity setting aliases to empty array (phab:T223300)
    • Use correct validator in alias changeop and provide error messages if alias is too short (phab:T223311)
    • More work on the use of special pages Special:SetAliases and Special:SetLabelDescriptionAliases with aliases containing | character (phab:T223270)

Tech News: 2019-23

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Recent changes

  • You can now write all special letters in all African Wikipedia languages. This works in the desktop version. [11]
  • There is now a field called depicts on Commons. This is a way to show what is in a picture with the help of Wikidata. It is still in development. [12]
  • Some tools on Toolforge may break on or after 3 June because of database changes. Maintainers should update their tools to use the new schema. [13][14]

Problems

  • You will be able to read but not to edit Wikimedia Commons for 30 minutes on 19 June at 05:00 (UTC). This is to fix a hardware problem. [15]

Changes later this week

  • Some wikis have one tab for the visual editor and one tab for a wikitext editor. Others wikis just have one tab. If your wiki has two tabs, clicking a link to create a new page has always opened a wikitext editor. It will now open the editor you used the last time you edited. [16]
  •   The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 4 May. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 5 May. It will be on all wikis from 6 May (calendar).

Meetings

  •     You can join the technical advice meeting on IRC. During the meeting, volunteer developers can ask for advice. The meeting will be on 5 May at 15:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Null page save bot

Latest comment: 5 years ago7 comments3 people in discussion

Hey Danny, do you happen to have a bot that can do null page saves to the pages transcluding Module:Str endswith, so it can be refreshed? It's supposed to be deleted, but it has 20k "transclusions" still left, which seems to be ghost, but I'd like to make sure. --Gonnym (talk) 19:53, 3 June 2019 (UTC)

@Gonnym: I wanted to have one, but it was denied - see Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval/DannyS712 bot 26 --DannyS712 (talk) 19:53, 3 June 2019 (UTC)
Ah, heh. Well. thanks anyways. Some of the editors in that discussion said User:Joe's Null Bot is working now, but it has a message at the top saying it isn't. @Galobtter:, do you know if you can help here and get it to run on this module? --Gonnym (talk) 20:00, 3 June 2019 (UTC)
@Gonnym: Joe's Null Bot isn't related here; its task is to purge pages that need to be regularly purged because they are in categories that change based on time, not to perform one-time bot runs. In any case, part of the reason Danny's bot was denied was lack of a demonstrated need (Category:Pages with graphs and Category:Pages with maps eventually emptied by jobqueue), and we now have two cases (Module:Str endswith and Module:Find sources/links/highbeam, which I nominated for deletion) in which a "null-edit all pages transcluding this one" bot would be helpful. * Pppery * it has begun... 23:34, 3 June 2019 (UTC)
@Pppery: I'll try to figure out using touch.py, and hopefully file a new one soon DannyS712 (talk) 00:05, 4 June 2019 (UTC)
... except for the fact that the number of transclusions of Module:Str endswith appears to have mysteriously dropped to zero ... * Pppery * it has begun... 00:13, 7 June 2019 (UTC)

I realize you're using a script, but is there no way you can check whose page you're leaving those messages on? DS (talk) 20:01, 3 June 2019 (UTC)

@DragonflySixtyseven: Sorry, but I don't think there is without checking the page creator each time. But, {{bots}} might have a trick for it. Maybe Amorymeltzer might know? DannyS712 (talk) 20:09, 3 June 2019 (UTC)
No, nothing does that for Twinkle, not yet anyway. I've got something on the backburner to try and deal with this, so hopefully down the line, but until then no. In the end, though, you're responsible for everything you do with Twinkle, and I'd never consider nominating something without seeing who the creator is first. You can turn off notifications for R4 tags if you like, but either way, if you're going to be doing rapidfire nominations, it's up to you to avoid blindly sending notifications to the same user. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 21:24, 3 June 2019 (UTC)
@Amorymeltzer: will do, thanks --DannyS712 (talk) 21:25, 3 June 2019 (UTC)
You're such a pro scripter but didn't it occur to you that this problem just demands a simple JS-based solution. Put this in your common.js, doesn't work perfectly of course, being written in 5 mins, but does the work:
$('input[value=redircom]').click(function() {
	new Morebits.wiki.page(mw.config.get('wgPageName')).lookupCreator(function(e) {
	var creator = e.getCreator();
	if (creator !== 'DragonflySixtyseven') return;
	var chkbx = $('input[value=notify]');
	chkbx.parent().after(' Danger! Created by DragonFly');
	chkbx[0].checked = false;
	});
});

Leaderboard

Seeing your bot in second place on the NPP leaderboard was a nice sight to see today. signed, Rosguill talk 22:57, 3 June 2019 (UTC)

@Rosguill: hmm, maybe we should exclude bots? --DannyS712 (talk) 00:06, 4 June 2019 (UTC)
if our leaderboard was actually competitive and we were actually full top to bottom with people who put in a significant amount of effort reviewing redirects, I could see people preferring to have bots left out. As it is, I don't think anyone's going to mind, plus it makes it easier for people to keep track of the bot and increases the odds of people noticing anything weird happening. signed, Rosguill talk 01:23, 4 June 2019 (UTC)

@Creffett: No problem, but I wasn't the one that made it, just took over maintaining it DannyS712 (talk) 02:20, 4 June 2019 (UTC)

Speedy Deletion of Naples United FC

Latest comment: 5 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

I'm very mad at why you deleted Naples United FC for the FOURTH time. The club literally meets all the requirements needed and also you cant just list G4 as the reason why it needs to be deleted. To make things worse, you even marked it for SPEEDY deletion, instead of Proposed deletion. Matthewishere0 (talk) 02:38, 4 June 2019 (UTC)

@Matthewishere0: Looking at the logs for that page, it was originally deleted after Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Naples United FC. It was then recreated by you, and then deleted by Materialscientist. You then recreated it again, before it was deleted by Muboshgu. I personally did not delete it, nor has it been deleted 4 times. If you object to their actions (i.e. the deletion) I suggest talking to them instead - as a non-admin, I can no longer see the content of the page. DannyS712 (talk) 02:45, 4 June 2019 (UTC)

Twinkle talk page posts

Latest comment: 5 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

Hi, is there any way that situations like this can be avoided: there's a single RfD discussion for a group of related redirects and probably there's no need for their creator to receive a long string of individual talk page notifications for each of them. – Uanfala (talk) 11:27, 4 June 2019 (UTC)

@Uanfala: Sorry, next time I'll combine them. I'm still not used to it posting notices for the target pages DannyS712 (talk) 15:19, 4 June 2019 (UTC)

Administrators' newsletter – June 2019

Latest comment: 5 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

News and updates for administrators from the past month (May 2019).

 

  Administrator changes

  Andonic • Consumed Crustacean • Enigmaman • Euryalus • EWS23 • HereToHelp • Nv8200pa • Peripitus • StringTheory11 • Vejvančický

  CheckUser changes

  Ivanvector

  Guideline and policy news

  • An RfC seeks to clarify whether WP:OUTING should include information on just the English Wikipedia or any Wikimedia project.
  • An RfC on WT:RfA concluded that Requests for adminship and bureaucratship are discussions seeking to build consensus.
  • An RfC proposal to make the templates for discussion (TfD) process more like the requested moves (RM) process, i.e. "as a clearinghouse of template discussions", was closed as successful.

  Technical news

  • The CSD feature of Twinkle now allows admins to notify page creators of deletion if the page had not been tagged. The default behavior matches that of tagging notifications, and replaces the ability to open the user talk page upon deletion. You can customize which criteria receive notifications in your Twinkle preferences: look for Notify page creator when deleting under these criteria.
  • Twinkle's d-batch (batch delete) feature now supports deleting subpages (and related redirects and talk pages) of each page. The pages will be listed first but use with caution! The und-batch (batch undelete) option can now also restore talk pages.

DannyS712, thank you for creating the userboxes. I would like to remind you that one of the tasks of WikiProject Userboxes is diffusing large userbox categories. I've already moved some the userboxes from Category:Userboxes to a more narrow category. —⁠andrybak (talk) 21:24, 8 June 2019 (UTC)

Found new set of categories that need merging

Latest comment: 5 years ago6 comments2 people in discussion

Scientific society redirects to learned society, but we have separate trees for Category:Learned societies and Category:Scientific societies, which for some strange reason now have historical societies classified as learned but no scientific... (ex. Category:Learned societies by subject vs Category:Scientific societies by subject). Both have 'by country' that need to be merged (Category:Learned societies by country, scientific one doesn't have a container cat and they are just listed in main). Help :) --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:26, 9 June 2019 (UTC)

@Piotrus: sure. What specifically do you want tagged, and what do you want the tag to be? --DannyS712 (talk) 03:33, 9 June 2019 (UTC)
I would like to propose a category merger for scientific tree to the learned tree, and I think all of the subcategories need a tag, some for merger, some for just renaming if there is no direct equivalent (like for most of the 'by subject'). I hope you have some tools that can help automate this rather then us having to tag each one by hand? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:40, 9 June 2019 (UTC)
@Piotrus: I can automate it, I just need a list of what to merge, what to rename, and what to delete, etc --DannyS712 (talk) 03:41, 9 June 2019 (UTC)

To rename (from scientific to learned):

To merge (from s to l):

All other categories and articles in parent category Category:Scientific societies like Category:Academies of sciences just need to be recategorized following the merger of the parent. I think that covers all? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:18, 10 June 2019 (UTC)

@Piotrus: Sure, file the CfD so I have something to link to, and I'll process this. It has to be the same day (UTC) though, so try to do it early in the (UTC) day if possible. Thanks, --DannyS712 (talk) 03:09, 17 June 2019 (UTC)

File mover granted

Latest comment: 5 years ago10 comments3 people in discussion
 

Hello DannyS712. Your account has been granted the "filemover" user right, either following a request for it or due to a clear need for the ability to move files. Please take a moment to review Wikipedia:File mover for more information on this user right and under what circumstances it is okay to move files. When you move a file please remember to update any links to the new name as well! If you do not want the file mover right anymore, just let me know, and I'll remove it. Thank you, and happy editing! ~Swarm~ {sting} 06:10, 9 June 2019 (UTC)

@Swarm: Thanks so much --DannyS712 (talk) 06:13, 9 June 2019 (UTC)
@Swarm: I have a question though: the note at Special:Move says that "Leaving a redirect from the prior title to the new is the norm for page moves for various reasons, such as that the prior title often has numerous internal and incoming links that would be broken upon the move and that it may be a likely search term. By contrast, such concerns are not normally applicable to file titles, which are often only linked from the one or two pages on which the file appears. Accordingly, unless this file is included in many pages (check using what links here; do not rely solely on the file links at the bottom of the file page), please consider manually changing all links to the old title to the new title, and then moving the file without leaving a redirect behind. The option to leave a redirect behind is checked by default, and must be unticked if you take this course." However, Wikipedia:Page mover#Suppress redirect criteria lists the situations where redirects can be suppressed, and says that "suppressing redirects in other cases may result in the revocation of page mover rights" - can you clarify? Thanks, --DannyS712 (talk) 06:23, 9 June 2019 (UTC)
(talk page watcher) Congrats. Everytime you use the "Suppress redirect" option, You are basically doing 2 things.
First is the renaming of the file and it should be done as per the policy see WP:FMNN
Second you are CSDing the redirect that would normally have been created. So before you supress the redirect, you should make sure that your action is in accordance with one of the valid reasons to WP:CSD a redirect. If you cant think of a valid reason to suppress the redirect, you should not suppress it.
If you violate the above conditions repeatedly you will loose the FM bits. Good luck. --DBigXrayᗙ 09:18, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
@DBigXray: in that case, the dialogue at Special:Move (determined by MediaWiki:Movepagetext-noredirectfixer, take a look at the source for what I am referring to) should probably be changed DannyS712 (talk) 09:23, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
I looked at your links. Cant find anything wrong. Can you quote what exactly you want changed in a Change X to Y format. --DBigXrayᗙ 09:26, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
@DBigXray: The movepagetext includes the part listed below, which conflicts with the policy
{{#ifeq: {{NAMESPACE:{{#titleparts:{{PAGENAME}}|1|2}}}} | {{ns:File}} |
 {{#ifeq:{{#titleparts:{{PAGENAME}}|1|3}}||{{notice|Using the form below will rename a file, moving all of its history to the new name. This option is only available to administrators and file movers.

Leaving a [[Wikipedia:Redirect|redirect]] from the prior title to the new is the norm for ''page moves'' for various reasons, such as that the prior title often has numerous internal and incoming links that would be broken upon the move and that it may be a likely search term. By contrast, such concerns are not normally applicable to file titles, which are often only linked from the one or two pages on which the file appears. Accordingly, unless this file is included in many pages (check using [[Help:What links here|what links here]]; do not rely solely on the file links at the bottom of the file page), please consider manually changing all links to the old title to the new title, and then moving the file without leaving a redirect behind. The option to leave a redirect behind is checked by default, and must be unticked if you take this course.

Please remember after the move to revisit the file page and remove {{tl|rename media}} or any other code that requested the move. Please also consider [[Wikipedia:Moving files to Commons|moving this page to Commons]] if it is a public domain release or under a [[Commons:Licensing#Acceptable licenses|suitable free license]].
 }}
and should probably be changed --DannyS712 (talk) 15:11, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
It looks good to me. What is your change proposal. I guess the above language must have been selected based on some consensus discussion somewhere. --DBigXrayᗙ 06:45, 11 June 2019 (UTC)
@DBigXray: What do you mean "it looks good" - the move instructions say one thing, and the policy page says something else!!! --DannyS712 (talk) 06:47, 11 June 2019 (UTC)
  • It seems you are seeing something that I have repeatedly failed to notice (and still do due to lack of a X to Y format). May be you can post your edit suggestion on the policy talk page for wider feedback. --DBigXrayᗙ 09:30, 11 June 2019 (UTC)

Special:Diff/901170178. That script looks ... fascinating. What does it do? Suffusion of Yellow (talk) 05:08, 10 June 2019 (UTC)

@Suffusion of Yellow: Wow, how did you find it? Any way, its (a little bit) based off of your edit filter helper - the goal is to be able to select any previous revision, and from there force an edit conflict with the present revision, so that you can selectively undo previous edits. See meta:Community Wishlist Survey 2019/Admins and patrollers#Allow partial reverts for edits. I figured the new visual edit conflict wizard would be a good interface to use. Also, ygm --DannyS712 (talk) 05:11, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
I have your common.js watchlisted (It's more interesting than most userpages  ), so it wasn't that hard to find. Anyway, I replied to the first email you sent today. If you sent another one, I didn't get it.
If you're trying to figure out how MediaWiki decides when there's an edit conflict, I've done I little digging myself. AFAIK, it's just calling GNU diff3! So the exact description of the algorithm is here. Suffusion of Yellow (talk) 06:05, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
@Suffusion of Yellow: hmm, good to know. I don't intend to read all of that, but I saw how you set the old revision with your script and experimented from there. Anyway, since edit conflicts don't work with yourself, if you don't mind I'll keep testing the script from time to time on your pages (and revert myself, of course) DannyS712 (talk) 06:08, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
Sure, no problem. Suffusion of Yellow (talk) 06:14, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
@Suffusion of Yellow: Also, thanks for testing 123 - I can't see it, but MusikBot tells me you did something, so I'm hopeful that in the medium-term it can be activated. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help DannyS712 (talk) 06:16, 10 June 2019 (UTC)

Your discussion close at Talk:Bitcoin Cash

Latest comment: 5 years ago11 comments2 people in discussion

Hi, I want to discuss your close at Talk:Bitcoin Cash. What I am missing in your close is a reflection of the problem that the "option B" you chose as having consensus is not confirmed by the cited sources. Can you explain it to me, please? Thanks. Ladislav Mecir (talk) 08:31, 10 June 2019 (UTC)

@Ladislav Mecir: Both option A and B agree that Bitcoin cash is sometimes referred to as Bcash. The source from A, [17], says "Bitcoin Cash detractors like to call the cryptocurrency “Bcash,” “Btrash,” or simply, a scam," - thus both proposals agree that it is sometimes referred to as Bcash. The sources for B specifically also use Bcash: "Bitcoin Cash or “Bcash,”", "Bitcoin Cash, now also known as “Bcash,”", "parts of the community are referring to the new token as Bcash" - those are the first 3 of the sources cited specifically for option B. I checked the cited sources before the close, since so much of the discussion was about how it is named, and see evidence that it is indeed, at least sometimes, called Bcash. DannyS712 (talk) 08:40, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
Right, that part of the "option B" seems to be confirmed by the sources. Nevertheless, there is also the first part of the "optionB" stating: "The naming of Bitcoin Cash is contentious;" and this part is not confirmed by the cited sources. In my opinion, this part reverts the facts, trying to inform the reader that the "Bitcoin Cash" name is contentious without having any source confirming this claim. Ladislav Mecir (talk) 09:07, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
@Ladislav Mecir: (edit conflict) There wasn't any (as far as I could see) discussion about whether or not it was contentious, and given that an RfC had to be held it seems to me that it is contentious. That being said, I was primarily persuaded by the arguments about NPOV and DUE weight. The consensus favored option B, and from a policy perspective it is at least as acceptable as option A. Does that make sense? --DannyS712 (talk) 09:13, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
Thank you for your reponse. It does make sense, as far as the second part of the "option B" is concerned. As far as the first part (the part having a prominent position in the "option B") is concerned, it ignores the fact that the contentious nature of the "Bitcoin Cash" name is not confirmed by any cited source. I know that there are editors trying to cite the discussion as the proof, but that is against the Wikipedia policies, as far as I am informed. Ladislav Mecir (talk) 09:20, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
@Ladislav Mecir: yes, the discussion itself can't be cited, and I'm sorry I personally can't track down a source at the moment, though I believe that those who were supporting B have some (I didn't read all of the sources listed) - maybe tag a CN template there? DannyS712 (talk) 09:22, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
Well, I think that what is necessary is to appeal the close based on the fact that the Wikipedia policies were replaced by a logically incorrect conclusion that if there is a disagreement on formulation, the subject itself must be contentious in nature. Ladislav Mecir (talk) 09:26, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
@Ladislav Mecir: I did not say that it was contentious because an RfC was held, I said that it seems to be contentious because an RfC needed to be held. The close was based on the consensus that I saw at the discussion. Maybe wait a few days and see if the contentious part is sourced? --DannyS712 (talk) 09:28, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
Well, I think that your suggestion misses the purpose of the RfC. It is to find whether the Wikipedia policies are held. Since they are not, the "option B" should not have been picked as consensual, so an appeal is justified. Ladislav Mecir (talk) 09:32, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
@Ladislav Mecir: I have reverted my close - clearly there is more to this than just what was written in the discussion --DannyS712 (talk) 09:40, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
Thank you. Maybe my contributions were also a part of the problem, since I may not have explained the issue as well as I intended. Ladislav Mecir (talk) 09:46, 10 June 2019 (UTC)

Recent changes

  • When you create a PDF from a page on the wiki this is now done by Proton. Before this we used Electron. It should look the same but work better. Both use Chromium. This is a different system from when you collect several articles into a book and make a PDF from them. [18][19]
  • The Flagged Revisions extension now uses the standard OOUI icons. There will be additional minor fixes for positioning in the next deployment. [20]
  •   Bots and other scripts that do not set an identifiable User-Agent may find their requests strictly rate-limited until they identify themselves properly. [21]

Problems

  • Please check if the Flagged Revisions configuration on your wiki is as you expect (or as it was a few weeks ago). If not, please report it. [22]

Changes later this week

  • There is no new MediaWiki version this week.

Again a little help at gl.wiki

Latest comment: 5 years ago23 comments2 people in discussion

Hi Danny, I need again a little help with an user script, I hope you can help me. I'm using User:Joeytje50/JWB at Galician Wikipedia. It works fine, but there is a little issue. At "Editing" tab, you can set "Enable RegEx Typo Fixing", the problem is that at Galician Wikipedia that control points to Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser/Typos, the english typos, and it should point to Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser/Typos at gl.wiki. I told it to Joeytje50, User_talk:Joeytje50#Enabling_RegEx_Typo_Fixing_Javascript_Wiki_Browser_in_Galician_Wikipedia, but I have not got an answer. We need that tool al gl.wiki because our users don't know how to use the normal bots, and with this tool they can do many tasks of this style, and if we fix that, they will be able to improve the articles even more. Could you review it? O:) Bye, Elisardojm (talk) 09:11, 11 June 2019 (UTC)

@Elisardojm: sure, I'll take a look. Are you importing the english JWB directly, or did you make a fork of it on your own site? --DannyS712 (talk) 18:09, 11 June 2019 (UTC)
Hi, We are importing it from en.wiki, you can see it here. Bye, --Elisardojm (talk) 20:30, 11 June 2019 (UTC)
@Elisardojm: I'll try to debug it before the weekend. --DannyS712 (talk) 23:53, 11 June 2019 (UTC)

@Elisardojm: Can you give me permission to use it there? DannyS712 (talk) 09:27, 13 June 2019 (UTC)

Hi, I can give you permission to use it at gl.wiki, It's done, but at en.wiki you should request at Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser/CheckPage. Bye, --Elisardojm (talk) 10:31, 13 June 2019 (UTC)

@Elisardojm: I already have permission on enwiki. --DannyS712 (talk) 16:17, 13 June 2019 (UTC)
Ah, ok, I added your user to gl.wiki, it should works now... Bye, Elisardojm (talk) 17:44, 13 June 2019 (UTC)
@Elisardojm: Okay, so the typo fix page is loaded from User:Joeytje50/RETF.js. The easiest thing to do would be to fork it on gl.wiki to make sure the API is executed locally, because that might be causing it. Are you okay with that? DannyS712 (talk) 22:53, 18 June 2019 (UTC)
I see, the problem is that if we fork the API, we will lost any upgrades of it... Is that the unique solution? Bye, Elisardojm (talk) 07:26, 19 June 2019 (UTC)
@Elisardojm: yes, but the script hasn't been updated in a while, and you can always update it again. Should I fork it and see if that works? --DannyS712 (talk) 07:43, 19 June 2019 (UTC)
Ok, let's try it! Thanks! Bye, Elisardojm (talk) 15:40, 20 June 2019 (UTC)
@Elisardojm: Okay, try importing gl:Usuario:DannyS712/JWB.js instead --DannyS712 (talk) 21:56, 29 June 2019 (UTC)

@Elisardojm: you did make an incorrect change - see gl:Special:Permalink/5194695 for what it should look like - you have an extra /load.js. --DannyS712 (talk) 02:54, 12 July 2019 (UTC)
Hi, I have copied that line, but it doesn't fix the problem.... :( Bye, Elisardojm (talk) 07:27, 12 July 2019 (UTC)
@Elisardojm: it should, what happens when you go to gl:Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser/Script? --DannyS712 (talk) 12:20, 12 July 2019 (UTC)
Yes the link open the JSW Browser, but It has disappeared the link to the tool in tools menu. In addition, the feature doesn't works, the link in JSW Browser to RegEx fixes still link to en.wiki page. Bye, Elisardojm (talk) 16:10, 13 July 2019 (UTC)
@Elisardojm: the link may be the same, but the actual source of the RegEx fixes should be the local gl page. --DannyS712 (talk) 16:12, 13 July 2019 (UTC)
I tested it with this test page, and it didn't work, it should have fixed "Abellaruxo" and "abexorro", but it didn't detect them. If I put a word to replace it, it detects it, but it doesn't detect the RegEx words... Bye, Elisardojm (talk) 07:45, 14 July 2019 (UTC)
@Elisardojm: Then I'm sorry, I don't know what to say. I'll try to figure it out, but no promises --DannyS712 (talk) 12:55, 14 July 2019 (UTC)
Ok, thank you anyway! Elisardojm (talk) 13:48, 14 July 2019 (UTC)

Presbyterian Church of Ghana

Latest comment: 5 years ago3 comments2 people in discussion

@ DannyS712 🍁 (talk) The content of the link you posted (https://ghanachurch.com/presbyterian-church-of-ghana/) was actually copied from the Presbyterian Church of Ghana Wikipedia article if you look at the dates. That webpage article was dated 31 March 2018, while the wiki information predates it. A little due diligence could have helped. Kandymotownie ν) 1:00, 13 June 2019 (UTC)

@Kandymotownie: I'm so sorry, I didn't see the date - that text size is tiny! I used ctrl-f to search the page for "on", "as of", "updated", "published", etc. and I didn't find it. Sorry --DannyS712 (talk) 01:03, 13 June 2019 (UTC)
@DannyS712: No worries! Kandymotownie ν) 1:12, 13 June 2019 (UTC)
@Kandymotownie: having said that, JJMC89 just reverted your actions, so maybe there is an issue --DannyS712 (talk) 05:23, 14 June 2019 (UTC)
@DannyS712: I think the real issue is the website (https://ghanachurch.com/presbyterian-church-of-ghana/) copied from the wiki article. The original references had already been listed in the Presbyterian Church of Ghana wiki article but I understand the admin would like to investigate any copyright violation before resolution. Sometimes, it seems there's a rush to delete content without extra caution and this is one of those examples. Kandymotownie ν) 17:33, 14 June 2019 (UTC)

more coding help

Latest comment: 5 years ago7 comments3 people in discussion

Hey Danny!

I'm trying to figure out what I did wrong with User:MJL/textDisallow.js. The goal is to simply highlight instances of the word "Disallow" on Special:AbuseLog. Can you help by taking a look at it when you get a chance? –MJL ‐Talk‐☖ 20:23, 13 June 2019 (UTC)

@MJL: sure, I'll take a look --DannyS712 (talk) 20:47, 13 June 2019 (UTC)
@MJL: I couldn't follow what you were doing, so I kind-of rewrote the entire script: User:DannyS712 test/disallow.js should do what you want. The biggest change is that I got rid of the "textDisallow" class, since inline CSS is enough. --DannyS712 (talk) 22:47, 18 June 2019 (UTC)
[Thank you for the ping] Ah, well you might as well credit yourself lol. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ –MJL ‐Talk‐☖ 02:20, 19 June 2019 (UTC)
@MJL: no really, its nothing - as soon as you copied it over I was planning to delete it, because I have too many sub pages. --DannyS712 (talk) 02:22, 19 June 2019 (UTC)
@MJL: I might include this in the next issue of WP:SCRIPTNEWS, but can you create a documentation page for it? If you want, I can make one for you - see, e.g., User:Suffusion of Yellow/effp-helper. Let me know --DannyS712 public (talk) 10:23, 28 June 2019 (UTC)

Talk:African humid period#Merger discussion with Neolithic subpluvial

Latest comment: 5 years ago4 comments3 people in discussion

Greetings,

several months ago you closed the merger discussion on Talk:African humid period#Merger discussion with Neolithic subpluvial as "no consensus" saying that there was not enough discussion here to establish a consensus. I was wondering if in light of the discussion, holding a redirect discussion for Neolithic subpluvial (i.e an AFD, as redirectings are discussed there) may make sense instead; the key objection to the merge was that merging content would increase the already humongous size of African humid period even more and that much of the content on Neolithic subpluvial is already on African humid period but the objecting editor noted that deletion might make sense instead. As you are the closer of the merger discussion and I was both the initiator of the discussion and the main author of AHP, I wanted to ask for your comments before reopening the discussion in any form. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 10:10, 14 June 2019 (UTC)

@Jo-Jo Eumerus: Well, shouldn't redirect discussions occur at RfD? Otherwise, I see no reason why you shouldn't go ahead with your plan --DannyS712 (talk) 10:24, 14 June 2019 (UTC)
RFD is for discussing pages that are redirects, not these which one is proposing should become redirects, as far as I know. JoJo Eumerus mobile (talk) 11:01, 14 June 2019 (UTC)
@JoJo Eumerus mobile: Oh, I misunderstood (you linked to a redirect) - sure, go ahead --DannyS712 (talk) 11:20, 14 June 2019 (UTC)

Draft categories on drafts

Latest comment: 5 years ago6 comments3 people in discussion

DannyS712 bot removed Category:The Walt Disney Company drafts from a draft.[23] The category is intended for drafts. Can the bot be coded to not remove categories with Draft/Drafts/draft/drafts in the name? Category:Draft articles has many. Another thing, [24] looks confusing on the rendered page because the category links are piped. I think {{Draft categories}} is better [25] but I made it so I may be biased. Could the bot use it? PrimeHunter (talk) 08:18, 16 June 2019 (UTC)

@PrimeHunter: The bot operates based on Module:AFC submission catcheck's detection of categories being written on the page - I have included ignoring categories that end in "drafts", which should fix it. Sorry about that. About the {{draft categories}} part, that would be a lot more complicated to code - can I get back to you about if I can implement it? Thanks, --DannyS712 (talk) 08:28, 16 June 2019 (UTC)
Thanks. That handles Category:The Walt Disney Company drafts. I see "Category:Drafts about ..." is already handled. Category:Draft articles is usually added by templates. A search [26] only found two current exceptions. Category:Promising draft articles appears to always be added by a template. {{draft categories}} is not important. PrimeHunter (talk) 08:57, 16 June 2019 (UTC)
@PrimeHunter: I changed "Drafts about..." to just "Drafts..." DannyS712 (talk) 08:59, 16 June 2019 (UTC)
[stalking] That template looks awesome. Thanks for creating it PrimeHunter! For a decade we've been following this odd and ugly practice of putting categories as links in userspace/drafts, I wonder why it took till 2018 for this innovation to come by. Cleanup bots should definitely be using this template. DannyS712, I don't think its any complicated to code. Just remove all cats from the page wherever they are, and put them all at the bottom within the template (stub tags aren't used in non-mainspace, so cats should always come at the very bottom). Basically replace the line
var new_text = text.replace( /\[\[Category/gi, '\[\[:Category' ); // Replace categorization with links
with:
var categories = text.match(/\[\[[Cc]ategory:.*?\]\]/);
var new_text = text.replace(/\[\[[Cc]ategory:.*?\]\]\s*/, '') + '\n{{Draft categories|\n' + categories.join('\n') + '\n}}';
SD0001 (talk) 14:13, 27 June 2019 (UTC)
@SD0001: thanks for the code, I’ll take a look when I have a chance. But, I don’t think it’ll be that simple, since I would also need to account for the template already holding some categories. Anyway, thanks —DannyS712 (talk) 15:02, 27 June 2019 (UTC)

I came across Arturs Zagars –> Artūrs Žagars in my patrols today, which seems like something your bot should have picked up. My guess is that either the ū or the ž doesn't have an ASCII base character mapping. signed, Rosguill talk 18:19, 17 June 2019 (UTC)

Tech News: 2019-25

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Problems

  • You will be able to read but not to edit Wikimedia Commons for 30 minutes on 19 June at 05:00 (UTC). This is to fix a hardware problem. [27]

Changes later this week

  • MIDI files can soon be played without the Score extension. You can then add them with [[File:Filename.midi]]. Later override_midi and override_audio will stop working. Instead you will need to add the MIDI file below the music score. [28]
  • A new video player will soon replace the old one. You will be able to enable it as a beta feature in your preferences. It will later be enabled for everyone if there are no big problems. [29]
  •   The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 18 June. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 19 June. It will be on all wikis from 20 June (calendar).

Meetings

  •     You can join the technical advice meeting on IRC. During the meeting, volunteer developers can ask for advice. The meeting will be on 19 June at 15:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Future changes

  •   Some gadgets and user scripts still use the old wgEnableAPI and wgEnableWriteAPI values. These values are always true. They will soon be removed. This might break the gadgets and scripts. You should fix your gadgets to not use these values. [30]

Could you please undo my editing on bongwan page?

Latest comment: 5 years ago12 comments2 people in discussion

Hi. I just made a mistake in editing 본관 page, but can't undo. Can you revert my editing? Thanks. B2V22BHARAT (talk) 07:22, 19 June 2019 (UTC)

I think people can mispronounce this word if hyphen is omitted, so I think bon-gwan(original title) is correct. B2V22BHARAT (talk) 07:30, 19 June 2019 (UTC)

@B2V22BHARAT: So you want the page to be at Bon-gwan, right? --DannyS712 (talk) 07:32, 19 June 2019 (UTC)
Yes. B2V22BHARAT (talk) 07:33, 19 June 2019 (UTC)
@B2V22BHARAT: Okay, it should be fixed now - I've tagged some for deletion, but you can probably ignore those - its just because the redirects that were left behind where edited, so I couldn't overwrite them myself. Let me know if there were any remaining problems --DannyS712 (talk) 07:38, 19 June 2019 (UTC)
Also, in my first-attempt, I couldn't erase hyphen in the title. May I know why? Thanks. B2V22BHARAT (talk) 07:37, 19 June 2019 (UTC)
@B2V22BHARAT: I'm not sure what you mean... --DannyS712 (talk) 07:39, 19 June 2019 (UTC)
@DannyS712: I wanted to change the title from bon-gwan to bongwan, but it didn't work.. B2V22BHARAT (talk) 07:41, 19 June 2019 (UTC)
@B2V22BHARAT: because Bongwan already exists --DannyS712 (talk) 07:42, 19 June 2019 (UTC)
@DannyS712: Oh, so if the spelling is the same, it doesn't matter if the hyphen is present or not? B2V22BHARAT (talk) 07:46, 19 June 2019 (UTC)
@B2V22BHARAT: no, its that the page you wanted to move it too already existed. You can't move "A" to "B" if "B" already exists --DannyS712 (talk) 07:47, 19 June 2019 (UTC)
@DannyS712: Oh I know that, but when I type bongwan, only bon-gwan page appears without any disambiguation pages showing. Never mind, I guess it's some kind of redirected from~ issue. Thanks for help. B2V22BHARAT (talk) 07:53, 19 June 2019 (UTC)

Thank you!

Every time I go to check out some page that I think has problems, I see that you've already been there and fixed it. And you somehow have 71,362 edits in only 9 months? You must be working here 24/7! That is more edits than many productive editors have who have been here a decade. AND you have created bots to take care of some tedious tasks automatically?!

I don't know what accounts for your amazing productivity but I just wanted to thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. You've made all of our jobs much easier. At this rate, some of us might not be needed any more! ;-) Liz Read! Talk! 00:21, 20 June 2019 (UTC)

On 21 June 2019, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Carin Clauss, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Carin Clauss, the first female solicitor of the United States Department of Labor, was also nominated by President Carter to be a judge? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Carin Clauss. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Carin Clauss), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Hi, sorry about the confusion on my RFA. Hopefully its fine now.--Mjs1991 (talk) 04:51, 21 June 2019 (UTC)

@Mjs1991: it looks good. Sorry about the undos, and good luck DannyS712 (talk) 04:57, 21 June 2019 (UTC)
@Mjs1991: Not quite: see this version of the RfX report - it says "14:48, 29 June 2019" in the "Ending (UTC)" column, and "8 days, 8 hours" in the "Time left" column. For me, this was a clear indication that something was wrong: nobody should get more than 7 days, 0 hours. So I looked for the actual transclusion edit and noted its timestamp; then found the edit of the RfA which was closest to that in time, added seven days to its its timestamp, and used this value to fix the RfA to show a more acceptable ending time. The RfX report was soon amended to match. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 07:19, 21 June 2019 (UTC)
