Hello, Mr. Stradivarius
How do you do?
There is a bit of problem in Template talk:.NET Framework version history that I think needs help from an administrator on a purely technical basis. Today, I noticed Revision #633387115 in which ClueBot III has moved every single thing in the talk page to Template talk:.NET Framework version history/Archives/, leaving no link behind, even though there is no archive reference template (e.g. {{ auto archiving notice}} or {{ archive box}}) on the talk page. (Of course the reason is obvious, but not relevant to my request.)
I don't know whether it is better to bring the content back or move the resulting page to, say, "Template talk:.NET Framework version history/Archive 1" but I can't do either: I can't move it myself. (Is it because of the / at the end?) And I'd rather not leave a redirect behind. (Can't do that either.) As for bringing them back, there is no way undoing it as if has never happened. Could you please assist?
Best regards,
Codename Lisa (

Hi.
{{ Ctr}} is nominated for deletion. However, I noticed very late. I have a rather unexplored proposal that maybe too late at this stage. You see, this template has the potential to join the family of table template to help create simpler tables. So, I am here to ask you a favor: Remember how we occasionally discussed code changes and new methods? Well, I'd like you to do this again, only this time in Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2014 October 29 § Template:Ctr. You see the idea is to give the discussion more visibility. When this achieved, I am confident that Wikipedians will do the right thing, be it opposing or supporting it. Hopefully, doing this makes the closing admin give it one or two more days.
Best regards,

Dear Sir, I've reverted your revert to its previous state, for that I don't think the content in that talk page is important and sensitive. For modifications on that template I've gotten troubles, and have experiences blocked twice. That is really unfair to me. So I just suggest that leave it a blank for someone else smarter enough to create new important and meaningful talks and modification on that stupid template. But this is only a suggestion, of course, you could revert it as you wish; also you could also report me like someone else had done to me too. All is up to you! Best of lucks!

Hi, I help coordinate over at WP:TAFI, and we frequently make use of the ping function to alert project members of our the weekly article selection vote, as well as thanking participants of the weekly collaborations. I noticed that the max number of participants was reduced from 100 to 20 with the mass noticiation module. Is there a particular reason for this, like abuses of the ping system or something? We often are pinging more than 20 participants, and it would be useful if the notification were returned to more than 20 users. -- Nick Penguin( contribs) 03:14, 18 November 2014 (UTC)

the reason the english page was deleted was cause that it does not satisfy Wikipedia's standards for inclusion.

I'm not sure why you and the previous editor thought that it was necessary to change the examples; at least your change leaves them working. However the text explaining how to use the template and the wikicode are now inconsistent. Please fix this! Peter coxhead ( talk) 10:15, 26 November 2014 (UTC)
style="line-height:100%;margin-left:0em;margin-right:0em;"text-align:right;font-size:85%""
. The extra quotation marks are a syntax error, and MediaWiki tidies that up by leaving out the style attribute altogether. So, ironically, my edit didn't break the template's display because it added more broken syntax to the already-broken syntax. Fixing this properly will require actually understanding the template's purpose and working out the proper CSS, which might require a bit of effort. —

|align=
in the template's documentation did not examine the template to see that |align=
is converted into CSS by the template (AFAICT). I have seen rumblings on various Talk pages about replacing outdated HTML; it is possible that someone searched for the pattern |align=center

For your information, Justlettersandnumber user mentioned you have been decived /info/en/?search=Talk:Universidad_Empresarial_de_Costa_Rica because he mentioned similar IP address, as for Montevideo Uruguay. Montevideo have 1,5 million citizens!! Also there is a local office for UNEM and a national website www.unem.edu.uy Over 300 students got their education at UNEM branch in Uruguay, so its unfair to mention IP address, since ALL citizens in Uruguay, over 3million people in all 19 states called DEPARTAMENTOS in spanish use the same IP address. Also Justlettersandnumbers user mention an old newspaper publication dated 2008 and for his information we are heading year 2015. I must underline, there are national branches in several countries, so as a student mentioned earlier, www.unem.cr is national based, mentime, www.unem.international is intended for worldwide users, and www.unem.edu.pl is where the first educational website was published and it reflects UNESCO whed listing.Furthermore Uruguay has its local website www.unem.edu.uy and also for your information in URUGUAY Universidad de la Republica UDELAR is the one that handles all dot EDU dot UY domains.

@ OccultZone: Well, I didn't read the whole thing, but I read enough of it to see that people on all sides of the debate are getting frayed tempers. I'm seeing friction between you and TopGun as well as between you and Nawabmalhi, and a few others as well. I think the best thing to do now would be to take a break from the article while the RfC is playing out. Once it's finished and there's a consensus about the infobox question, that will be a much better time to get back into editing the article. At the moment, arguing about details isn't really helping with the main issue, and it's getting everyone on edge as well. The alternative to sitting out the RfC would be to take this to ANI, and that probably won't end well. You'd do much better trying to make peace with everyone. — Mr. Stradivarius ♪ talk ♪ 16:13, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

Hi.
I've been meaning to simplify the Template:Section link myself but always overwhelmingly higher priorities (external mostly) distracted me; and now, you've converted it to a Lua module and it is out of my reach. I've recently written my first Lua script AND put into production after extensive testing but I'm still too new for this. That's why I thought perhaps you might be willing to help in your free time, if you have any.
Currently, the syntax to create a sole section link within the same page is {{
section link| |Section title |np=y}}
. But I think it can be safely made to do same when {{
section link|Section title}}
is supplied. There are 21293 transclusions of this template but I bet none of them is using this syntax to refer to Notes section. Still, there are ways to ascertain and mitigate the issue before the deployment of the change, right?
What do you think?

@ Mr. Stradivarius: As you can see from the ResellerRatings talk history today, the single-purpose IP vandalism continues. One IP was blocked, but the same edit warring vandal is back (and reverted more edits on the talk page) under a dynamic ATT wireless IP, which is a single-purpose sock puppet account. Is it possible to indefinitely semi-protect this talk page? Thanks.

The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it. |
You can bring out any "yet to be closed" discussion from archives that has some consensus. I believe that the page was recently hogged up with a lot of primary source commentaries, they had to be removed on sight but they weren't carefully watched by the editors who were active before. I had retrieved a non-controversial and policy based version [14] I had also excluded a lot of unsourced and unfounded commentaries of WP:PRIMARY sources. However, it was soon reverted and I had to open a report against TopGun due his continuous source misrepresentation. But we still got the idea about a version that had consensus and remained for long. There was probably no need of these long and tall discussions when we had to finally agree that we have got no reliable sources for claiming any sort of Pakistan's victory. We can state "Pakistan halts Indian invasion", like we did before. OccultZone ( Talk • Contributions • Log) 16:40, 30 December 2014 (UTC)

Is this the way how you handle problems on Wikipedia by simply closing the case without finding a compromise? What happens, if I put Aramean continuity related topics to the "Assyrian people" article and everything will be deleted or distorted by Assyrian fascists again, because they think they are the owner of this article? They even have a WikiProject called Assyria and don't care about neutrality and support Assyrianism. We are fed up that all our contributions on Wikpedia even with references are getting removed without a valid reason. Are you there to check it and undo it? This is why I was in favour for a neutral common page called Assyrian/Syriac people, Syriac people or whatever focused only on our Christian heritage, where we all agree on. What's wrong with the idea to create articles within a common page to express each groups views? The current Assyrian people article mixed up with Assyrian plus Aramean topics would led to edit wars again.

Hi User:Mr. Stradivarius. I am coming to your talk page as I note you signed the The Autie Pact back in 2012. I am a non- neurotypical who lives with Autism in the form of Asperger Syndrome. If you know much about those of us on the Spectrum as well as Wikipedia editors on the Spectrum, you probably understand that editing and communication can be difficult enough for neurotypicals, excruciatingly difficult at times for editors like me with Autism. I am here on your talk page not because I am asking you to intervene, I am not canvassing for support, I am not here because you are an administrator. I am here because you signed the Autie Pact that is meant to be a way to move toward bridging the gap between neurotypical editors and editors with Autism Spectrum Disorder(s). Currently, there has been a discussion for a few days at AN/I regarding my ability to edit. I have been open there about being a person with Asperger's. When that information was brought forth, the reactions have been -- shall we say -- less than complimentary to those expressing their views about editors with Autism. This discussion and the comments from long-time and not-so-long-time editors is, in my opinion, an example of how far we still have to go in Wikipedia toward understanding that we are made up of editors with different editing styles and different ways of seeing the world. Of course, the difference in editors with Autism is more obvious and can be, at times, more maddening to neurotypicals. That said, with the rate of autism being somewhere between 1:55 - 1:110 and Wikipedia being a magnet for those with ASDs, I think it's fair to say that awareness is extremely important. Also important to remember is that discrimination against editors because they have ASDs is just not appropriate nor does it echo WP:AGF. If you are interested in seeing the thread at AN/I I am referring to, the link is here [16]. I have no expectation that you will look at it, my purpose here is really just awareness that Wikipedia still has a long way to go in the way of interactions and understanding between autism-spectrum editors and neurotypical editors. And, as the title of this section says, your advice would be welcome. Thanks for your time. -- WV ● ✉ ✓ 16:26, 13 January 2015 (UTC)
Hello Mr. Strad. Do you have any suggestion how to handle WP:AN3#User:Sardanaphalus reported by User:Edokter (Result: )? Recently you lifted one of this editor's permissions after an ANI discussion. Should this AN3 be forwarded to ANI for wider review or should a 3RR admin handle it as a normal edit warring case, even though just two reverts are listed?

11:18, 14 January 2015 (UTC)Mr. Strad and Jackmcbarn,
From 8–10 Jan (this year), I participated in Bengali Wikipedia's 10 years celebration event.
There a few guys (admins) from Nepali Wikipedia came to me and told that Twinkle is not working properly on their Wikipedia. Mr, Strad, as I told you I have experience of working with MediaWiki set-up, admin and bureaucrat tools, I gave them few basic suggestion like a) "make sure you have all 4-5 Twinkle js, css files", b) "make sure to import related templates/modules too" etc. But those did not really work (we did not have computer there at that time).
Today one of them (a Maithili Wikipedia admin) has sent me a message on Facebook and asked me about setting up "autopatrolled" right. I am not sure, but it may be related to LocalSetttings.php, but I have zero idea, who can access these pages.
I gave him a very short an unclear answer on Facebook, as I am restricting my off-Wiki communication because of my ongoing RFA discussion.
Now, from my MediaWiki-related works experience, I have seen, Mr. Strad and Jackmcbarn, you are two of the most active editors who work on module updating etc on En WP. So would you mind, if I send these Nepali Wikipedia or Maithili Wikipedia guys to you?
Plus, I am feeling a bit curious now, who can access and who actually manages our En WP's sensitive pages like LocalSettings.php or Robots.txt? Regards. --

Hi
WikiProject Medicine has a template for Talk pages that launches a search of the biomedical literature to help editors find sources compliant with WP:MEDRS. It is here: Template:Reliable_sources_for_medical_articles. The template takes the article name and inserts it in the search field of pubmed, for example, with other delimiters. But it doesn't treat the article name as a string. I've been trying to figure out how to do that, and couldn't. Then I noticed what you had done with Template:Find_sources_AFD. Could you please apply Lua to our template so that it will search using the string? I mentioned that I was going to ask you this, on WikiProject Medicine's talk page, here. If you are too busy, I understand, but I hope you have time. Thanks! Jytdog ( talk) 13:53, 22 January 2015 (UTC)

Hello, Mr. Stradivarius
How do you do?
There is a bit of problem in Template talk:.NET Framework version history that I think needs help from an administrator on a purely technical basis. Today, I noticed Revision #633387115 in which ClueBot III has moved every single thing in the talk page to Template talk:.NET Framework version history/Archives/, leaving no link behind, even though there is no archive reference template (e.g. {{ auto archiving notice}} or {{ archive box}}) on the talk page. (Of course the reason is obvious, but not relevant to my request.)
I don't know whether it is better to bring the content back or move the resulting page to, say, "Template talk:.NET Framework version history/Archive 1" but I can't do either: I can't move it myself. (Is it because of the / at the end?) And I'd rather not leave a redirect behind. (Can't do that either.) As for bringing them back, there is no way undoing it as if has never happened. Could you please assist?

Hi.
{{ Ctr}} is nominated for deletion. However, I noticed very late. I have a rather unexplored proposal that maybe too late at this stage. You see, this template has the potential to join the family of table template to help create simpler tables. So, I am here to ask you a favor: Remember how we occasionally discussed code changes and new methods? Well, I'd like you to do this again, only this time in Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2014 October 29 § Template:Ctr. You see the idea is to give the discussion more visibility. When this achieved, I am confident that Wikipedians will do the right thing, be it opposing or supporting it. Hopefully, doing this makes the closing admin give it one or two more days.

Dear Sir, I've reverted your revert to its previous state, for that I don't think the content in that talk page is important and sensitive. For modifications on that template I've gotten troubles, and have experiences blocked twice. That is really unfair to me. So I just suggest that leave it a blank for someone else smarter enough to create new important and meaningful talks and modification on that stupid template. But this is only a suggestion, of course, you could revert it as you wish; also you could also report me like someone else had done to me too. All is up to you! Best of lucks!

Hi, I help coordinate over at WP:TAFI, and we frequently make use of the ping function to alert project members of our the weekly article selection vote, as well as thanking participants of the weekly collaborations. I noticed that the max number of participants was reduced from 100 to 20 with the mass noticiation module. Is there a particular reason for this, like abuses of the ping system or something? We often are pinging more than 20 participants, and it would be useful if the notification were returned to more than 20 users. -- Nick Penguin( contribs) 03:14, 18 November 2014 (UTC)

I'm not sure why you and the previous editor thought that it was necessary to change the examples; at least your change leaves them working. However the text explaining how to use the template and the wikicode are now inconsistent. Please fix this! Peter coxhead ( talk) 10:15, 26 November 2014 (UTC)
style="line-height:100%;margin-left:0em;margin-right:0em;"text-align:right;font-size:85%""
. The extra quotation marks are a syntax error, and MediaWiki tidies that up by leaving out the style attribute altogether. So, ironically, my edit didn't break the template's display because it added more broken syntax to the already-broken syntax. Fixing this properly will require actually understanding the template's purpose and working out the proper CSS, which might require a bit of effort. —

For your information, Justlettersandnumber user mentioned you have been decived /info/en/?search=Talk:Universidad_Empresarial_de_Costa_Rica because he mentioned similar IP address, as for Montevideo Uruguay. Montevideo have 1,5 million citizens!! Also there is a local office for UNEM and a national website www.unem.edu.uy Over 300 students got their education at UNEM branch in Uruguay, so its unfair to mention IP address, since ALL citizens in Uruguay, over 3million people in all 19 states called DEPARTAMENTOS in spanish use the same IP address. Also Justlettersandnumbers user mention an old newspaper publication dated 2008 and for his information we are heading year 2015. I must underline, there are national branches in several countries, so as a student mentioned earlier, www.unem.cr is national based, mentime, www.unem.international is intended for worldwide users, and www.unem.edu.pl is where the first educational website was published and it reflects UNESCO whed listing.Furthermore Uruguay has its local website www.unem.edu.uy and also for your information in URUGUAY Universidad de la Republica UDELAR is the one that handles all dot EDU dot UY domains.

@ OccultZone: Well, I didn't read the whole thing, but I read enough of it to see that people on all sides of the debate are getting frayed tempers. I'm seeing friction between you and TopGun as well as between you and Nawabmalhi, and a few others as well. I think the best thing to do now would be to take a break from the article while the RfC is playing out. Once it's finished and there's a consensus about the infobox question, that will be a much better time to get back into editing the article. At the moment, arguing about details isn't really helping with the main issue, and it's getting everyone on edge as well. The alternative to sitting out the RfC would be to take this to ANI, and that probably won't end well.

Hi.
I've been meaning to simplify the Template:Section link myself but always overwhelmingly higher priorities (external mostly) distracted me; and now, you've converted it to a Lua module and it is out of my reach. I've recently written my first Lua script AND put into production after extensive testing but I'm still too new for this. That's why I thought perhaps you might be willing to help in your free time, if you have any.
Currently, the syntax to create a sole section link within the same page is {{
section link| |Section title |np=y}}
. But I think it can be safely made to do same when {{
section link|Section title}}
is supplied. There are 21293 transclusions of this template but I bet none of them is using this syntax to refer to Notes section. Still, there are ways to ascertain and mitigate the issue before the deployment of the change, right?
What do you think?

You can bring out any "yet to be closed" discussion from archives that has some consensus. I believe that the page was recently hogged up with a lot of primary source commentaries, they had to be removed on sight but they weren't carefully watched by the editors who were active before. I had retrieved a non-controversial and policy based version [14] I had also excluded a lot of unsourced and unfounded commentaries of WP:PRIMARY sources. However, it was soon reverted and I had to open a report against TopGun due his continuous source misrepresentation. But we still got the idea about a version that had consensus and remained for long. There was probably no need of these long and tall discussions when we had to finally agree that we have got no reliable sources for claiming any sort of Pakistan's victory.

Thanks for your quick help
here! But, I think I forgot one part... Can you change return list.join ( ', ' ) + ' en ' + last ;
to return list.join ' en ' + last ;
? This will be needed to remove a unneeded comma.

list.join ' en '
a syntax error in JavaScript? Actually, the code return list.join ( ', ' ) + ' en ' + last ;
looks fine to me. Perhaps the extra comma is being introduced somewhere else? —

10:33, 9 January 2015 (UTC)You aren't allowing me to edit Debito's Wikipedia page just because I haven't discussed it in the talk page, but i'm trying to talk about changing the article, but you simply won't respond. Not one is responding to my messages. The talk page is basically dead. Besides, how is the criticism section a violation of Wikipedia policy. How are the sources that are included not relevant. It's not designed to cause defamation of character. It's just ment to express the criticism that Debito has received. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Graylandertagger ( talk • contribs) 01:07, 9 January 2015 (UTC)
Is this the way how you handle problems on Wikipedia by simply closing the case without finding a compromise? What happens, if I put Aramean continuity related topics to the "Assyrian people" article and everything will be deleted or distorted by Assyrian fascists again, because they think they are the owner of this article? They even have a WikiProject called Assyria and don't care about neutrality and support Assyrianism. We are fed up that all our contributions on Wikpedia even with references are getting removed without a valid reason. Are you there to check it and undo it? This is why I was in favour for a neutral common page called Assyrian/Syriac people, Syriac people or whatever focused only on our Christian heritage, where we all agree on. What's wrong with the idea to create articles within a common page to express each groups views? The current Assyrian people article mixed up with Assyrian plus Aramean topics would led to edit wars again.

Syriac people should not be removed from Assyrian people, its the same people we cant have different articles about the same people -- 129.16.211.112 ( talk) 17:14, 9 January 2015 (UTC)

The Mediation Award | |
Now that you've moved on to other endeavors this is in recognition to your outstanding career service in dispute resolution at English Wikipedia, both in planning and administration and in the excellent mediation of particularly difficult and vexing cases. We couldn't have done it without you, Strad, and your talents are sorely missed. Best regards, TransporterMan ( TALK) 14:53, 9 January 2015 (UTC) |
Naturally, I'm disappointed – more, though, by your interpretation than the removal of rights.
I'm not sure I understand, however, how the Incidents thread relates to your action. You realize that it wasn't prompted by Edokter's tendency to revert..?

Hi, have you assessed my RFA candidature? Regards. -- Tito☸ Dutta 09:20, 4 January 2015 (UTC)
Hi User:Mr. Stradivarius. I am coming to your talk page as I note you signed the The Autie Pact back in 2012. I am a non- neurotypical who lives with Autism in the form of Asperger Syndrome. If you know much about those of us on the Spectrum as well as Wikipedia editors on the Spectrum, you probably understand that editing and communication can be difficult enough for neurotypicals, excruciatingly difficult at times for editors like me with Autism. I am here on your talk page not because I am asking you to intervene, I am not canvassing for support, I am not here because you are an administrator. I am here because you signed the Autie Pact that is meant to be a way to move toward bridging the gap between neurotypical editors and editors with Autism Spectrum Disorder(s). Currently, there has been a discussion for a few days at AN/I regarding my ability to edit. I have been open there about being a person with Asperger's. When that information was brought forth, the reactions have been -- shall we say -- less than complimentary to those expressing their views about editors with Autism. This discussion and the comments from long-time and not-so-long-time editors is, in my opinion, an example of how far we still have to go in Wikipedia toward understanding that we are made up of editors with different editing styles and different ways of seeing the world. Of course, the difference in editors with Autism is more obvious and can be, at times, more maddening to neurotypicals. That said, with the rate of autism being somewhere between 1:55 - 1:110 and Wikipedia being a magnet for those with ASDs, I think it's fair to say that awareness is extremely important. Also important to remember is that discrimination against editors because they have ASDs is just not appropriate nor does it echo WP:AGF. If you are interested in seeing the thread at AN/I I am referring to, the link is here [16]. I have no expectation that you will look at it, my purpose here is really just awareness that Wikipedia still has a long way to go in the way of interactions and understanding between autism-spectrum editors and neurotypical editors. And, as the title of this section says, your advice would be welcome. Thanks for your time. -- WV ● ✉ ✓ 16:26, 13 January 2015 (UTC)
Hello Mr. Strad. Do you have any suggestion how to handle WP:AN3#User:Sardanaphalus reported by User:Edokter (Result: )? Recently you lifted one of this editor's permissions after an ANI discussion. Should this AN3 be forwarded to ANI for wider review or should a 3RR admin handle it as a normal edit warring case, even though just two reverts are listed? Thanks for any opinion, EdJohnston ( talk) 03:14, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

11:18, 14 January 2015 (UTC)Mr. Strad and Jackmcbarn,
From 8–10 Jan (this year), I participated in Bengali Wikipedia's 10 years celebration event.
There a few guys (admins) from Nepali Wikipedia came to me and told that Twinkle is not working properly on their Wikipedia. Mr, Strad, as I told you I have experience of working with MediaWiki set-up, admin and bureaucrat tools, I gave them few basic suggestion like a) "make sure you have all 4-5 Twinkle js, css files", b) "make sure to import related templates/modules too" etc. But those did not really work (we did not have computer there at that time).
Today one of them (a Maithili Wikipedia admin) has sent me a message on Facebook and asked me about setting up "autopatrolled" right. I am not sure, but it may be related to LocalSetttings.php, but I have zero idea, who can access these pages.
I gave him a very short an unclear answer on Facebook, as I am restricting my off-Wiki communication because of my ongoing RFA discussion.
Now, from my MediaWiki-related works experience, I have seen, Mr. Strad and Jackmcbarn, you are two of the most active editors who work on module updating etc on En WP. So would you mind, if I send these Nepali Wikipedia or Maithili Wikipedia guys to you?
Plus, I am feeling a bit curious now, who can access and who actually manages our En WP's sensitive pages like LocalSettings.php or Robots.txt? Regards. --

Hi
WikiProject Medicine has a template for Talk pages that launches a search of the biomedical literature to help editors find sources compliant with WP:MEDRS. It is here: Template:Reliable_sources_for_medical_articles. The template takes the article name and inserts it in the search field of pubmed, for example, with other delimiters. But it doesn't treat the article name as a string. I've been trying to figure out how to do that, and couldn't. Then I noticed what you had done with Template:Find_sources_AFD. Could you please apply Lua to our template so that it will search using the string? I mentioned that I was going to ask you this, on WikiProject Medicine's talk page, here. If you are too busy, I understand, but I hope you have time. Thanks! Jytdog ( talk) 13:53, 22 January 2015 (UTC)

percent-encoding). Although I think maybe the parentheses might already group different words together? Anyway, I can take a look at this tomorrow if you don't figure it out first. —
