Hey, Tech13. I have been experimenting with some new signatures, and have settled (after much deliberation) on TheOneSean [ U | T | C ]. What I would like is a signature where The, One, and Sean are each links to my userpage, talk, and contribs, respectively. Same colour, smallcaps, blur etc. Just getting rid of the ugly [links] . I'm unable to get the teal colour to stay on the text when I link it. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for your help, TheOneSean [ U | T | C ] 22:42, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
<span style="font-variant: small-caps; font-size:1.25em; font-face:Geneva; text-shadow: 0 0 .2em #7af; color:teal;">TheOneSean</span>
is a start. can't finish on droid... will have to do on computer. trick is to add span style color teal in the piped section of each link.

is as close as we can get while staying inside the 255 character limit without
substituting a template and it looks like →

Sean ← (We had to drop the small-caps to make it fit in 255 characters.) Happy editing!

12:37, 1 July 2013 (UTC)There are major issues, possibly cultural issues, with many articles in the Indian subcontinent, in that things are added without citations, or even with incorrect citations. One thing we have to be is diligent in requiring any addition to pass WP:BLP, and a ghost list such as this does not comply with BLP in any way. As you see, I have reverted your reversion. I will continue to insist that all alumni in this list, whether commented out or not, be cited. It is a matter of BLP, which trumps all.
The cultural issue is harder to address. Many additions are by IP only once only editors, some are by editors in what one might term 'good standing', but even the latter often fail to understand that lists of alumni have major BLP issues. Regrettably folk add their favourite perosn, who may, or may not, be an alumnus. Fiddle Faddle 13:12, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
would you please help me with participating in the AfC backlog drive? -- Lee Tru. 13:21, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
Thanks. I've changed my signature. HTML (etc) used to be an area where pretty much anyone could play. Now it has become so much more than the old "Print Stream" concept and entered the world of the impenetrable and arcane. It was, I suppose, inevitable. This of us who started to build web sites happily in raw HTML in 1996 or so had a wholly smaller arsenal of things to play with. Today it's rare that I see the underlying HTML.

Hi, Could you help design a userbox that says "This user supports friendship between Cuba and the U.S.A.", with flags of the two countries? I would be grateful. Thanks. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 05:15, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
Why just these two countries? I suppose we could also make generic userboxes which support friendship between any two countries for that matter. I would definitely put up one for India and Pakistan on my userboxes. TheOriginalSoni ( talk) 09:43, 1 July 2013 (UTC)

If you have used the Git command line to clone WPAFC/afch, you need to run these two commands on the repo:
git tag -l | xargs git tag -d
git fetch --prune
This is because I broke the tags and had to push some fixes. I've also reactivated push access to the repo. Please read the README for some info on what to do. Thanks, Nathan2055 talk - contribs 00:38, 5 July 2013 (UTC)
Someone mentioned you may be the right person to make this a functioning tool, if you have an interest. The idea is for this template to send COIs here and other folks like the Help desk could probably just link here and COIs can go through the wizard and get advice and go through the process in a very structured and efficient way.

Thank you for your kind offer to help. I'm a long time Wikipedia user but some of the tags aren't intuitive to me. This issue has been going on for a year, with people attempting to delete his page and failing that, writing a "hit piece" on him. I've tried EVERYTHING, talked at length, nothing will get through to the people who actively hate and want to smear him. They want to just throw conflicting WP policy links at me (lawyering) without discussing the issue. Help me get it protected and reverted to the last consensus in March, as the article now was specifically created to disparage Crowder (as it was written by the person who fought vigorously to say he isn't "notable enough" to rate an article). So he wrote this negative article,and people who don't like ME are taking it out on the "living person" it he article. Thanks for your guidance!

OK, I can set up a version of my "List of San Diego Trolley stations" page, as the "Test page". (I'll also put the same in my Sandbox too, just in case...)
But, if it's OK, I'll need until later today before I can get to that - I've got to get to work before I can get to it. Thanks for getting back to me! — Preceding unsigned comment added by IJBall ( talk • contribs)
Technical 13 - I've got a follow-up question for you, re: this template: I can't seem to get the Silver Line text to display the proper "silver" color using the 'Line dots' template.
I've looked at your template code, and I can't figure out what the issue is. But if I use the 'Line dots' template for the Silver Line text color, the text color comes out as " span style="color:silver;" " rather than " span style="color:#808080;" " (which is a darker 'silver') like it should be if the 'Line dots' (and the accompanying 'MTS color') templates are used. You can see what I'm referring to if you look at the Silver Line text in the first table on my current IJBall/sandbox page.
Any help you can provide on fixing this minor (but vexing!) issue with the 'MTS dots' template code will be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance! -- IJBall ( talk) 20:17, 13 July 2013 (UTC)

There was nothing biting in my response at the Teahouse. If you feel the urge to apologize for me in the future, please take it up with me first. A "bitey" response would have focused on how her husband has abused Wikipedia in the past in order to promote himself, complete with writing essays about how it is desirable to do so, and how she should not be writing any articles about subjects with which she is involved (as she probably receives revenue as the result of sales of her late husband's books).— Kww( talk) 22:32, 20 July 2013 (UTC)
You are very busy and I appreciate anything you might be able to do. That being said, and given the other person who has been using my husband's name, perhaps salting is the best way to go. There is so much about Arnold Reisman on the web and of course I think he is a notable person but I am biased. If you can do something, great....if not, let it be. Just as long as his name isn't redirected elsewhere. That is a corruption that would be unacceptable. Lonyar ( talk) 00:56, 21 July 2013 (UTC)

Technical 13: This is the first time since joining Wikipedia last year that I have been truly angry. When you said that you would help test with my proposal, and then didn't, and didn't reply to my message asking you to let it go so that someone else could test it, I thought that you were just busy, and then forgetful. Now I find that you were deliberately not doing it because you have grandiose plans to single handedly rewrite everything in sight and holding up Writ Keeper's and my work without even letting us know so that you could incorporate it into your own at some later time. Here are a few adjectives to describe what I think of this behaviour: rude, high-handed, patronizing, arrogant, ignorant and mean. The script that Writ Keeper wrote works perfectly well as it is, and there is no justification at all for making it wait for some future project that isn't even proposed yet. I can usually find a way to see things from the other person's point of view, but this time I am not even going to try. My upbringing prevents me from expressing myself more strongly. — Anne Delong ( talk) 22:32, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

They don't have to exist to be populated was your response to my fixing the template. The process to delete a category requires them to be empty. Also, allowing red categories to be be populated encourages editors to create the category. Which if it was deleted at CfD, has them breaking the guidelines. It would be much better for you to simply check if see if the category exists before you actually add it. That way we avoid all of the problems. Vegaswikian ( talk) 21:27, 28 August 2013 (UTC)

19:33, 9 September 2013 (UTC)Like I said, ugly. So I'm thinking that if I design a template I could have one for each row. Your edit link in each row open up an edit for the whole table. That may have been intentional, but I'm thinking that if I had an edit link in each row which would open up just the row for editing, the overall table would be sortable, while preserving the ability to edit a single row.-- SPhilbrick (Talk) 22:41, 9 September 2013 (UTC)
Before I finish the remaining conferences, I'm hoping you can take a look and see if I am missing anything. For example, I see you used some noinclude tags, but I didn't. Do I need them?
The draft is at: User:Sphilbrick/sandbox
One issue, I need to add a couple footnotes. See the original here List_of_current_NCAA_Division_I_women's_basketball_coaches#UTSA_Roadrunners and note the footnotes on FIU and Green Bay. I tried adding them to the template, but it didn't work right.-- SPhilbrick (Talk) 12:43, 10 September 2013 (UTC)

Hey, per discussion at User talk:Theonesean/sandbox/AfC Mentoring, I was just wondering... what did you mean by "everything"? Is it reviewing, draft creation, and the whole shebang? Or just new work for reviewing?
I am thinking that the community mostly seems to know what it's doing when it comes to reviewing tools. If you're making an extension, we can help with design review and code review, but it's probably wise to not try and overlap efforts by having us creating a reviewing tool as well.

OK, it turns out I'm not quite done, but I'm stuck. I cannot use "Independent" as a conference, because that is a dab page.
The right link is NCAA Division I independent schools (basketball)
However, I didn't want that long a name so I tried Independent
That doesn't work, because it interprets the pipe as the start of the next parameter.
I tried replacing by its ACSII code, but that renders as the first row on my sandbox: User:Sphilbrick/sandbox
and the edit button doesn't open the right template.
What am I doing wrong?-- SPhilbrick (Talk) 23:20, 12 September 2013 (UTC)

Technical 13, am I missing something, or did you create an RFC at the talk page of a redlinked redirect? One that, in theory, would be eligible for speedy deletion as the talk page of a deleted page? Surely there is a better location for such a discussion? UltraExactZZ Said ~ Did 16:30, 23 September 2013 (UTC)
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on CSD:, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
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 "Click here to 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 removed 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, you can place a request here. OSborn arf contribs. 17:07, 23 September 2013 (UTC)

Technical 13, I don't think you were pinged about the above discussion although I know that you have been involved in saving some stale drafts. — Anne Delong ( talk) 17:58, 23 September 2013 (UTC)
I found a nice template that does pings, but it apparently has a limit of five (hint, hint). I actually thought about you, but I honestly didn't realize that you were as involved as you are, then I got side-tracked by cleaning up the text and did not add the second ping group.
Despite my faux pas in not including you, maybe you can provide a number that is relevant. Hasteur has hinted that the incoming additions to the list will exceed the deletions if the throttle is much lower. DGG seems to think that 50 a day will be enough. I'm looking at the cat, but do not have a clue as to how to find out how many are added each day. Do you know? I don't want to bother Hasteur, as I sense some frustration that this issue is still alive.-- SPhilbrick (Talk) 19:46, 23 September 2013 (UTC)

Hey, Tech13. I have been experimenting with some new signatures, and have settled (after much deliberation) on TheOneSean [ U | T | C ]. What I would like is a signature where The, One, and Sean are each links to my userpage, talk, and contribs, respectively. Same colour, smallcaps, blur etc. Just getting rid of the ugly [links] . I'm unable to get the teal colour to stay on the text when I link it. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for your help, TheOneSean [ U | T | C ] 22:42, 29 June 2013 (UTC)

12:37, 1 July 2013 (UTC)There are major issues, possibly cultural issues, with many articles in the Indian subcontinent, in that things are added without citations, or even with incorrect citations. One thing we have to be is diligent in requiring any addition to pass WP:BLP, and a ghost list such as this does not comply with BLP in any way. As you see, I have reverted your reversion. I will continue to insist that all alumni in this list, whether commented out or not, be cited. It is a matter of BLP, which trumps all.
The cultural issue is harder to address. Many additions are by IP only once only editors, some are by editors in what one might term 'good standing', but even the latter often fail to understand that lists of alumni have major BLP issues. Regrettably folk add their favourite perosn, who may, or may not, be an alumnus. Fiddle Faddle 13:12, 1 July 2013 (UTC)

Thanks. I've changed my signature. HTML (etc) used to be an area where pretty much anyone could play. Now it has become so much more than the old "Print Stream" concept and entered the world of the impenetrable and arcane. It was, I suppose, inevitable. This of us who started to build web sites happily in raw HTML in 1996 or so had a wholly smaller arsenal of things to play with. Today it's rare that I see the underlying HTML.

Thank you for your kind offer to help. I'm a long time Wikipedia user but some of the tags aren't intuitive to me. This issue has been going on for a year, with people attempting to delete his page and failing that, writing a "hit piece" on him. I've tried EVERYTHING, talked at length, nothing will get through to the people who actively hate and want to smear him. They want to just throw conflicting WP policy links at me (lawyering) without discussing the issue. Help me get it protected and reverted to the last consensus in March, as the article now was specifically created to disparage Crowder (as it was written by the person who fought vigorously to say he isn't "notable enough" to rate an article).

Technical 13 - I've got a follow-up question for you, re: this template: I can't seem to get the Silver Line text to display the proper "silver" color using the 'Line dots' template.
I've looked at your template code, and I can't figure out what the issue is. But if I use the 'Line dots' template for the Silver Line text color, the text color comes out as " span style="color:silver;" " rather than " span style="color:#808080;" " (which is a darker 'silver') like it should be if the 'Line dots' (and the accompanying 'MTS color') templates are used. You can see what I'm referring to if you look at the Silver Line text in the first table on my current IJBall/sandbox page.
Any help you can provide on fixing this minor (but vexing!) issue with the 'MTS dots' template code will be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance! -- IJBall ( talk) 20:17, 13 July 2013 (UTC)

Hello Technical 13, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Jesus isn't a dick keep him out of my vagina, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Not blatantly an attack page or negative, unsourced BLP. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. – GorillaWarfare (talk) 18:38, 4 August 2013 (UTC)

Technical 13: This is the first time since joining Wikipedia last year that I have been truly angry. When you said that you would help test with my proposal, and then didn't, and didn't reply to my message asking you to let it go so that someone else could test it, I thought that you were just busy, and then forgetful. Now I find that you were deliberately not doing it because you have grandiose plans to single handedly rewrite everything in sight and holding up Writ Keeper's and my work without even letting us know so that you could incorporate it into your own at some later time. Here are a few adjectives to describe what I think of this behaviour: rude, high-handed, patronizing, arrogant, ignorant and mean. The script that Writ Keeper wrote works perfectly well as it is, and there is no justification at all for making it wait for some future project that isn't even proposed yet. I can usually find a way to see things from the other person's point of view, but this time I am not even going to try. My upbringing prevents me from expressing myself more strongly. — Anne Delong ( talk) 22:32, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

They don't have to exist to be populated was your response to my fixing the template. The process to delete a category requires them to be empty. Also, allowing red categories to be be populated encourages editors to create the category. Which if it was deleted at CfD, has them breaking the guidelines. It would be much better for you to simply check if see if the category exists before you actually add it. That way we avoid all of the problems. Vegaswikian ( talk) 21:27, 28 August 2013 (UTC)

19:33, 9 September 2013 (UTC)Like I said, ugly. So I'm thinking that if I design a template I could have one for each row. Your edit link in each row open up an edit for the whole table. That may have been intentional, but I'm thinking that if I had an edit link in each row which would open up just the row for editing, the overall table would be sortable, while preserving the ability to edit a single row.-- SPhilbrick (Talk) 22:41, 9 September 2013 (UTC)
Before I finish the remaining conferences, I'm hoping you can take a look and see if I am missing anything. For example, I see you used some noinclude tags, but I didn't. Do I need them?

One issue, I need to add a couple footnotes. See the original here List_of_current_NCAA_Division_I_women's_basketball_coaches#UTSA_Roadrunners and note the footnotes on FIU and Green Bay.

Hey, per discussion at User talk:Theonesean/sandbox/AfC Mentoring, I was just wondering... what did you mean by "everything"? Is it reviewing, draft creation, and the whole shebang? Or just new work for reviewing?
I am thinking that the community mostly seems to know what it's doing when it comes to reviewing tools. If you're making an extension, we can help with design review and code review, but it's probably wise to not try and overlap efforts by having us creating a reviewing tool as well.

OK, it turns out I'm not quite done, but I'm stuck. I cannot use "Independent" as a conference, because that is a dab page.
The right link is NCAA Division I independent schools (basketball)
However, I didn't want that long a name so I tried Independent
That doesn't work, because it interprets the pipe as the start of the next parameter.
I tried replacing by its ACSII code, but that renders as the first row on my sandbox: User:Sphilbrick/sandbox
and the edit button doesn't open the right template.
What am I doing wrong?-- SPhilbrick (Talk) 23:20, 12 September 2013 (UTC)

Surely there is a better location for such a discussion? UltraExactZZ Said ~ Did 16:30, 23 September 2013 (UTC)
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on CSD:, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
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 "Click here to 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 removed 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, you can place a request here. OSborn arf contribs. 17:07, 23 September 2013 (UTC)

Technical 13, I don't think you were pinged about the above discussion although I know that you have been involved in saving some stale drafts. — Anne Delong ( talk) 17:58, 23 September 2013 (UTC)
I found a nice template that does pings, but it apparently has a limit of five (hint, hint). I actually thought about you, but I honestly didn't realize that you were as involved as you are, then I got side-tracked by cleaning up the text and did not add the second ping group.
Despite my faux pas in not including you, maybe you can provide a number that is relevant. Hasteur has hinted that the incoming additions to the list will exceed the deletions if the throttle is much lower. DGG seems to think that 50 a day will be enough. I'm looking at the cat, but do not have a clue as to how to find out how many are added each day. Do you know? I don't want to bother Hasteur, as I sense some frustration that this issue is still alive.-- SPhilbrick (Talk) 19:46, 23 September 2013 (UTC)
