Query re Phab

Re phab:T298638#7747810... Does the #transcript div on the xkcd site itself not work?

Also, to keep this on-topic for enwiki, some wikiarchaeology for you: Are you aware that we once had an IP admin? I've been blowing people's minds with that lately. If you knew that one, I've got a back-up fun fact too.

Oh, P.S., re a11y, Special:Diff/1072160462/1074848630 may interest you (more as a point of interest than as something to use; I'm guessing you don't need anything to flag for you when such issues arise). Very much in beta for now, but... -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she/they) 15:46, 2 March 2022 (UTC)

(Oh, noticing your talk header, I generally prefer to keep discussion on one page, but don't mind kicking it oldschool across talkpages if you'd rather.) -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she/they) 15:52, 2 March 2022 (UTC)

@Tamzin: Yeah I've gotten more meh about the talk page conversation location as time goes on, so I'll just reply here. Re XKDC: nope, the transcript div doesn't work under Chrome in either JAWS or NVDA, the two main Windows screen readers. I didn't bother testing it on Firefox/Edge because both screen readers are reasonably well optimised for Chrome these days. Nope, I did not know about the IP admin ... tell me more? And the other fun fact would be interesting too. Graham87 15:57, 2 March 2022 (UTC)

Oh also, cool re CSS, but you're right that I wouldn't actually use it myself much; I'd prefer to fix these issues as I notice them. But there's a typo in there ... "turorial" should be "tutorial". Graham87 15:58, 2 March 2022 (UTC)

Hmm. Well I've always suspected Randall has some account other than the long-dormant user:xkcd, so who knows, maybe he'll see this. Either way, good to know. By the way, Wugapodes has proposed adding xkcd and explainxkcd prefixes to the interwiki sitemap. Perhaps then we could get a nice template that would do something like [[xkcd:315|xkcd 315]]<sup>[[explainxkcd:315|explained]]</sup>. (I mean, we could do that now—xkcd 315^explained—but the interwiki linking would add a certain imprimatur.

Anyways! IP admin. My source for this is User:NoSeptember/Early admins (20 Sept 2002), which contains the line Robert Merkel July 2001 as 61.9.128.xxx. I assume that was back when "adminship" meant access to the shared "admin password"? Sadly, there do not seem to be any (surviving) diffs of the IP engaging in any sort of administrative activity. Robert, a fellow-countryman of yours, is still around, so someone sufficiently curious could ping them.

My other fun wikiarchaeology fact is that a number is blocked. Not an IP. Not an autoblock number. Not an all-digits username. This line in BlockList shows that at 18:09 on 13 February 2004, Dori blocked the number 1703. If you fiddle around with "hide" parameters, you'll see that BlockList considers it to be an account block, but User:1703 does not exist. That's the fourth block of the BlockList era. Which, as you probably know, goes back farther than the Special:Log/block era, leading to cases like Wanli2 (talk · contribs), who has no block notice on their contribs page or if you try to edit their userpage, and no block log entry, but is listed by NavPopups as "BLOCKED". XTools says both that they've never been blocked, and that their current block length is indefinite! Quarry, hopefully, settles it. I'd love to know what they'd see if they logged in, though... Wonder if anyone around now has an alt that got blocked back then.

[Add post-EC] Y'know I think someone else pointed that out, and my (light-hearted) snarky reply to them was "so get IntAdmin and fix it". But yes, I should fix that, and might even remember to this time. -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she/they) 16:32, 2 March 2022 (UTC)

@Tamzin: Yeah sounds cool re XKDC.

Re IP admin: yes I'm very familiar with that user. They weren't able to log in though because of cookie issues (see User talk:Robert Merkel/ancient). They also wouldn't have been an admin because to use the shared password, you had to be able to log in (which they couldn't do until the phase II software) came out.

Wow re weird block ... sorry, I've gone and ruined it though out of principle ... if you search for "#1703" at Wikipedia:Block log/Archive1, you'll notice that it really should have been unblocked earlier but for some reason the software wouldn't let that happen. I found the block ID through a fork of your query and found out from another query that the user ID referred to a user named Lsmkirkpatrick. Hehehe re typo! I'd better be off to bed now ... it's getting late here. Graham87 17:14, 2 March 2022 (UTC)

(Pssstttt... Special:Redirect/user/3207.) -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she/they) 17:30, 2 March 2022 (UTC)

Lol I thought there must've been a better way ... Graham87 17:32, 2 March 2022 (UTC)

Here's an interesting one I'm not going to ruin from the list of earliest still-existing blocks ... Invalid username 68022~enwiki, which, according to the block log archive linked above, was "ʹ€ì¼ì„±" ... your guess is as good as mine re what that was supposed to represent; this site doesn't shed any light on the matter. Now it's really bedtime for me. Graham87 17:46, 2 March 2022 (UTC)

File:Baby Let Me Take You Home Animals label.jpg

Hello. I requested an un-hiding of the prior revision(s) of File:Baby Let Me Take You Home Animals label.jpg at WP:REFUND. However, no one replied to my request there. The RonBot, which you locally unblocked due to global locking of the bot, hid this. I wonder whether you can undo the bot's hiding. The other similar image is tagged as "PD-ineligible-USonly" was undeleted as the result of the FFD discussion. I then change this image's status as PD-USonly. --George Ho (talk) 23:49, 3 March 2022 (UTC)

@George Ho: I'm not going to do that on principle because I'm blind and can't see the image. I don't object to another admin doing the unhiding though. Graham87 03:35, 4 March 2022 (UTC)

Teeth

I made a number of Wikipedia additions of teeth numbers of various animals and I think you reverted them all as I did not include a reference. It is well known that these animals have a similar 32 teeth pattern probably coming from the similar DNA but I can not find online references to source the fact.--Mark v1.0 (talk) 14:57, 5 March 2022 (UTC)

Edits on Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union

Hi Graham87, you've reverted my edit on Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and your edit summary was: "Undid revision 1075629262 by Edcolins (talk), yes but it shouldn't be in the see also section per the guideline cited in their edit summary". Hmm, I am afraid I don't really understand your edit summary since my edit did not relate to the "see also" section and Onkel a (talk · contribs) did not refer to any guidelines in their edit summary (see [1]). I did later in two unrelated edits ([2], [3]). Can you please explain, so that I can better understand this? Thanks. --Edcolins (talk) 07:47, 7 March 2022 (UTC)

@Edcolins: Um whoops! I somehow got it into my head that Onkel a, rather than you, had made this earlier edit and thought you'd reverted that for some reason ... I obviously didn't check the diff of your edit at all. I've self-reverted. Graham87 07:53, 7 March 2022 (UTC)

Thanks! --Edcolins (talk) 07:57, 7 March 2022 (UTC)

I was going to RfD the first of these, and then saw the second, and noticed that they were created six months apart by two IPs that (at least today) are on two separate continents.

Any idea what happened here (and whether it's worth preserving)? Both get pageviews, although neither gets enough to know whether anyone's deliberately navigating to these pages. -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she/they) 00:11, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

Susquehanna County demographic data

Hi. I'm a bit puzzled. Obviously, you're much more familiar than I am with the ins and outs of this article and its history, the track record of that other editor, and so on. But looking narrowly at the present case, it seemed to me that the data was relevant and, in most cases, duly sourced. And your "we don't care" certainly didn't give me confidence in your good faith.

I mean, I'm sure there's a procedure for getting someone banned from editing an article if there's a history of disruption; but, short of that, it's not appropriate to revert an edit solely because of who made it, where the specific edit might be unobjectionable, right? Jcejhay (talk) 13:34, 12 March 2022 (UTC)

Just saw your reply. Well, that all makes sense and I can gladly defer to you here. I will leave you with the thought that if you had explained your original reversion with something like "this level of detail is out of keeping with the standard for this type of article" rather than "we don't care," I never would have questioned your good faith or your expertise.

Dust Bowl

Would you unprotect Dust Bowl? It's been more than eight years since you protected it. Maybe the petty vandals of eight years ago have grown up, so it's worth a try to see what happens. 49.198.51.54 (talk) 09:19, 19 March 2022 (UTC)

In that case, please replace

With insufficient understanding of the ecology of the plains, farmers had conducted extensive deep plowing of the virgin topsoil of the Great Plains during...

with

With insufficient understanding of the ecology of the Great Plains, farmers had conducted extensive deep plowing of the virgin topsoil during...

Also, there are several appearances of the phrase "the plains" and one of "the northern plains", and in all of them, "plains" should be replaced with "Plains". 49.198.51.54 (talk) 09:26, 19 March 2022 (UTC)

It's shorthand for the Great Plains, not some offhand reference to plains in general, or eighteenth Century archaic Capitalisation. The introduction to Great Plains uses this capitalisation:

The Great Plains (French: Grandes Plaines), sometimes simply "the Plains", is a broad expanse of flatland in North America.

If it's appropriate in the Great Plains article's lead, why is it inappropriate in the Dust Bowl article? 49.198.51.54 (talk) 10:08, 19 March 2022 (UTC)

Move?

Hi, Graham, could you please move Boris Lyatoshinsky to Borys Lyatoshynsky, as the article says, and I find in international concert announcements? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:08, 6 April 2022 (UTC)

@Gerda Arendt: I'd prefer that this case go through requested moves rather than me doing anything unilaterally. It's been moved around quite a bit already], and I think its title should be established by community discussion once and for all. I know that there's a trend to use Ukrainian transliterations due to recent events, so I think the move would have a good chance of getting through the requested moves process. Graham87 10:22, 6 April 2022 (UTC)

The article is in conflict with the article title, - do you suggest to change the article to the Russian version, now? - I suggest you move it boldly, and see what happens. My prediction: nothing. We could still discuss if it proves problematic. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:37, 6 April 2022 (UTC)

@Gerda Arendt: You're probably right that it'd be fairly uncontroversial, but I still think it'd be better to discuss it first. There's no rush; a move like this can wait a couple of weeks and the bolded version of the title being different isn't that big a deal here IMO. A bold edit as a normal editor is one thing; one that can *only* be done with advanced tools is quite another. Graham87 11:50, 6 April 2022 (UTC)

understand, and don't have time for a RM, and don't want another battlefield with national concerns, - too many articles about people who died - I'll ask one more --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:31, 6 April 2022 (UTC)

Another old page history investigation

Hola Graham. I happened across a random archive of deletion discussions from February 2007 - User:BL~enwiki/New VFD. There are a number of red links in it where the titles don't exist even as deleted. Can you tell me what happened there? For example, Abuse/old is supposed to be where an old version of Abuse was moved to. I'm interested in the mechanics of that rather than the content. I suspect some may exist in the May 2003 database dump, as you recovered one in 2013, Wikipedia:Arguments. If so, I'd be very grateful if you could dig out Wikipedia:Article title length ("funny random crap"), Wikipedia:References Used, and The last page (also random crap but sounds like classic early wiki japes). Cheers!  — Scott • talk 22:21, 7 April 2022 (UTC)

@Scott: they're all listed at Wikipedia:Deletion log/February 2004 (3) and aren't in the modern Wikipedia database due to a crash in June 2004; see footnote c at Wikipedia:Viewing and restoring deleted pages. They're not in the May 2003 database dump ... I've gone and programmatically checked many (not quite all, but honestly most of the interesting ones) of the pages in that dump that have revisions missing from the current database (see User:Graham87/SHA-1). Re "the last page", you can see what I did there now. Graham87 23:55, 7 April 2022 (UTC)

Also see this old discussion we had ... I since got the deletion logs restored. Graham87 00:05, 8 April 2022 (UTC)

Edit-warring, personal attacks and other concerning behaviour from an IP user

Hi, I got your name from the list of recently active admins at ANI. I've been having a few problems with an IP user from Sydney editing under various addresses who seems to very interested in the history of scouting. Known IPs:1, 2, [[4]], [[5]], [[6]]

They have posted personal attacks on a talkpage, I wasn't particularly bothered at the time because the whole thing was about which was the correct tag to use on an article(!), but it seems to be part of a pattern of behaviour. [[7]]

They are edit warring across multiple pages, with regards to the content of the lede. As there are two users involved, I reverted back to the status quo prior to their edits (different from both proposed ledes) prior to discussion on the talk page. Unfortunately this was almost immediately reverted and messages explaining the situation and asking to self revert were ignored. [[8]], [[9]], [[10]].

A further concern is their changing of section headings detailing the lives of the subjects of the above articles to "Non-notable details", which is clearly connected to their merger nomination of the 3 articles.

I wonder if it would be possible for you to revert the ledes of the 3 articles to the versions which were in place prior to their edits in order for discussion to occur without edit-warring? In the diffs above my edits have the original lede while preserving the IP users edits to the body text.

In terms of the users behaviour, perhaps a quiet word from a third party to advise them to be less confrontational might help?

Apologies for bothering you if you are unable to help with this, any advice about alternatives would be welcome. Boynamedsue (talk) 06:57, 12 April 2022 (UTC)

@Boynamedsue: ... can you actually ... go to ANI? I don't want to get involved in a dispute like this. Graham87 07:06, 12 April 2022 (UTC)

No problem you not wanting to get involved, I fully understand. Is ANI not a big step though? Boynamedsue (talk) 07:10, 12 April 2022 (UTC)

@Boynamedsue: Yeah, a bit, but it's the smallest one we have that's appropriate to the situation ... Graham87 07:12, 12 April 2022 (UTC)

Cheers, thanks for the advice. Boynamedsue (talk) 07:15, 12 April 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for your note

I'm glad you had a laugh over my comment on the AfD for the "coalition" article that was so bad. I'm a retired 40-year survivor of first-year college student essays, and my disposition has always been first to try to be kind to the writer. About a month into my first teaching experience, though, as a matter of survival I took Kenny Rogers' lyric about poker games to heart: "You've got to know when to hold 'em / Know when to fold 'em / Know when to walk away/ Know when to run..." Not such bad advice for WP editors, either. Grand'mere Eugene (talk) 02:00, 13 April 2022 (UTC)

Please use edit summaries on reverting edits

As far as I can see Special:Diff/1082505936 reverting an accepted revision without explanation is both not best practice and also not acceptable. In passing I note the level-3 vital wheel article has been a significant vandalism target and may be unsuitable for the pending changes set by Ohnoitsjamie if that is simply going to cause problems. Thankyou. Djm-leighpark (talk) 17:29, 13 April 2022 (UTC)

OK Just noted you blocked the IP who made that edit. That is a reason for the reversion, though one of the wl.'s was actually quite useful.Djm-leighpark (talk) 17:34, 13 April 2022 (UTC)

Draft over Redirect, and how to preserve edit history?

Hi, again! I notice your interest in reading article edit histories, so I think you are the right person to ask about an issue I haven't dealt with before:

I've had a request from GreenBlueGreen to review and comment on Draft:Ron Diamond, and I noticed after the draft was started another editor created a redirect, Ron Diamond. The draft needs only a bit of cleanup to be ready for article space, but how to move it there without losing the edit history for either the new article or the redirect? ...or am I overthinking why the new article text should not be cut and pasted over the redirect?

Blocked from Waterfront Records page

Hi Graham.

I hope that you're well.

My name is Steven Stavrakis - i was the owner of the Waterfront Records record store and record label. I actually started both of them.

I just attempted to update the Waterfront Records wiki but appear to have been blocked/banned instigated by you?

I have not idea what i have done...the reason appears to be: "Editing from this range has been disabled (blocked) by an administrator in response to abuse."

I haven't abused anyone??

Can you please fill me in and hopefully i can get access to update some inconsistencies on this page.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Sayre Area School District

I had closed the DRN case, and then saw you were an admin, so I rolled back what I said and the closure, and my reversion to the oldest static version until consensus could be reached on the Sayre page. However, I am confused and concerned- I don't understand why you are hard-lining on this issue with Delphinium. They have said they want to make edits and improve the page. You say they aren't established, they have been editing for years- obviously not consistently- but their edits do appear constructive overall. Why not work with them? Why not discuss it with them? Why threaten to block them? It doesn't seem to make sense to me. I'm not trying to be confrontational- I'm genuinely curious what I am missing. Yes- that page obviously needs a good strong clean up, but if a less experienced editor wants to take a stab at it, why not help them instead of just forcing mass deletions? Why not discuss it? Another editor agreed that the strike information could be relevant- so you've ignored two voices on that one, and if it received a lot of local coverage, I'm inclined to agree with them. And being a local resident doesn't mean they have a COI (I don't know- maybe they do, but if they say they don't I see no reason to assume differently at this point). I edit local pages because I love local history. Not because I'm paid by local communities, just because its what I enjoy and I'm in a fairly rural area so I'm one of very few who edit those pages. Your actions here are concerning from the outside so I figured I must be missing something and it was better to ask you what I missed. Nightenbelle (talk) 18:06, 3 May 2022 (UTC)

Just a detail

Hi, Graham. I noticed you mentioned at ANI that you used Wikiblame. Too many people still do! It has been superseded by the much superior tool Who Wrote That. More accurate and way easier to use. Best, Bishonen | tålk 10:52, 4 May 2022 (UTC).

@Bishonen: Thanks for the note, but as a screen reader user, that interface sounds kinda painful to me ... not that anything can be done about that. This might be a weird thing to say but I actually really like WikiBlame ... yes it can be slow and finicky but so is Wikipedia. I have enough of a background in strange computer systems that I can usually figure out how to get it to do what I want. Having said that, I might just try out "Who Wrote That?" just to see if I can ... BTW you can link to it more simply just using mw:Who Wrote That? ... much less text. Graham87 11:52, 4 May 2022 (UTC)

Yeah it kinda half-works here. I don't know anywhere near enough about web development to have any idea how to make it more accessible without inconveniencing sighted people ... it was worth a try though. WikiBlame suits me better anyway; I use it a lot on talk pages too. Graham87 12:03, 4 May 2022 (UTC)

Q

Regarding the assertions in this diff [11] regarding the ol' "blank lines cause lists to be closed and reopened" worry, didn't you tell once that, in fact, screen readers handle this OK once some option is set appropriately? Or maybe it wasn't the blank lines thing you were talking about, but shifts abrupt shifts in indent markup, like "::" followed by "::::", or "*::" followed by ":::".

@EEng: I don't remember saying anything like that. Maybe it was about abrupt shifts in indent markup, but even then, they need to have the same punctuation (e.g. colons) as the previous text. Or maybe I said something about how the NVDA screen reader is more fussy than JAWS about colons ... but NVDA is very widely used these days. Graham87 07:30, 18 May 2022 (UTC)
