WikiBhasha.MSR

Bug 1

I installed the gadget and it added the link in the Sidebar successfully, but didn't add the new button to the edit screen. Kaldari (talk) 22:37, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

Seems to be working now. Kaldari (talk) 19:17, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

Bug 2

Thank you for the tool, however when I click on its button, I've got:

Unable to launch WikiBhasha
TypeError: this._mouseInit is not a function

And it stops.

I work on an HP Pavillon dv9000 with Firefox 3.6.12. JackPotte (talk) 10:01, 5 November 2010 (UTC)

I get the same error now, in both Firefox and Safari (on MacOSX). Kaldari (talk) 21:34, 8 November 2010 (UTC)

I tested WikiBhasha on Mac OSX ( snow leopard ) with firefox 3.2.12 and safari 5.0.2. and WikiBhasha is working correctly as a gadget. Please provide information about how you installed the WikiBhasha gadget script. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Anilande (talk • contribs) 06:25, 26 November 2010 (UTC)

Just like in the process. JackPotte (talk) 04:24, 27 November 2010 (UTC)

We are sorry that we could not reproduce this behavior. Looking at the error, the most possible reason could be that the core java script files of WikiBhasha are not loaded in to your system. Please check if there is anything that is preventing WikiBhasha java script files.

WikiBhasha article

Hello WikiBhasha.MSR. It is not clear from your user page whether you are an individual or a team but I will assume you are the one who made all the recent additions to the WP article.

While it is useful to have a user guide about WikiBhasha, the normal principles of Wikipedia article writing still need to be addressed. I have tried to make a start in this direction by transforming the text into a descriptive account rather than a set a instructions for the user. However, the article is still in need of proper referencing (at least one reference per paragraph) including, wherever possible, third-party references. (If not, it is likely to be plastered with tags.) Suitable sources could include, for example, newspaper articles, reviews of the tools, quality assessments, etc. At the moment, it looks to me as if your contribution would be more appropriate for inclusion under Wikipedia:Tools where there would be no need to present it all in the form of an encyclopedic article. Perhaps you could consider doing both? You could include the user-oriented instructions under Wikipedia:Tools while using the main article as a general description of the tool with third-party assessments.

I suggest you also take a look at the Google translate article for some ideas. While further work is required there too, the article does give a number of references and also cites some of the problems. I hope this will be helpful. Good luck! - Ipigott (talk) 12:05, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

Yes, this user - WikiBhasha.MSR - is a small team consisting of researchers and developers who did put in the article about WikiBhasha in Wikipedia.

Having gone through the comments, we realize that the changes that you are suggesting make sense. I noticed that we had shaped the article almost as a user manual. What I could do is just re-write this as a paragraph and just point to the user doc as a reference.

We had also considered making this a Wikipedia:Projects page, but decided to wait till the tool is adopted more widely by the Wikipedia users. We'll consider this as well.

"What I could do is just re-write this as a paragraph and just point to the user doc as a reference": I just did so. --Nemo 09:45, 26 October 2013 (UTC)
