I have noticed your contribution to MediaWiki:Common.js and would like your help. As you see, on english wikipedia the edit button on different sections of an article is on the right side of the page. I work on dv.wikipedia and it is written from right to left (unlike en.wiki which is written left to right) In our wiki, the edit button of section is on the right side, next to the heading. Is there anyway it can be moved to the left?? Thank you very much Awaiting your response. cheers. -- Glacious ( talk) 20:44, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Hi. Re:
WP:VPR#Moving the Help link in the sidebar, I believe you might be mistaken regarding "... by default, the Interaction tab is collapsed ...". I tried a few variations of browsers, all logged-out, and consistently had the "Interaction" and "Languages" sections appear open by default. (I dimly recall some arguments discussions about this...). Possibly you are seeing sections collapsed (even if logged out) due to a cookie, or something? You might wish to amend your comment at VPR. :) --

Hey, great job! (In fact, far too good a job. In hindsight I should have found someone to make a hash of it and thus keep my own post secure. Ah well.) Apologies if I've written out any intentional deviations from previous style, but it's probably best to discuss them and agree first, rather than have some sort of ping-pong between editors.

Given the comments here (saying that Ganglia also should be added to the bypass list), and the fact that there are about 10 WMF projects, wouldn't it be more effective if there was only a "whitelist" for adding the WMF projects (which all have a secure version), such as Wikipedia, Wikiversity, Wikinews, Wiktionary, etc?

(Re: this discussion from MediaWiki talk:Common.js) OK, so the planned migration is firm. I had taken the earlier answer as an definite-maybe.
I looked at the jquery.tablesorter.js script and it appears to do a good job of handling rowspan and colspan in the header, but not the body. As far as adapting it to MediaWiki, I assume we would need some function to map the existing "sortable" class to "tablesorter", or modify the .js to recognize the "sortable" class. We would also need to move the header rows into a thead block. That would give us the basic functionality, but I would assume you or someone is already working on that. Rows tagged as "sortbottom" and "unsortable" (fixed-in-place) likely present some complications that might require some changes to the core sort algorithm. Perhaps some kind of before-sort and after-sort callbacks might allow custom code to set aside and later restore the fixed data rows. I am sure there are many other issues regarding the features and quirks of the current implementation that would best be preserved to maintain backward compatibility.
Can I be of assistance? Is there a list of tasks looking for a developer? -- Tom N (tcncv) talk/ contrib 02:55, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

Was thinking about copying MW Popups and making my own variant, but before I create that kind of a code fork I thought I'd run an idea by you and see if you think this would make sense to change for everyone who uses the interface. The idea, put simply, is that when mousing over any talk page (user talk, article talk, WP talk, etc...) instead of seeing a preview (which I feel like is usually an out of date top line of the talk page, or some other non-relevant content) the default action would be to see the history of the page. This wouldn't change the beauty of reading popups mid-article (where you can see the lead of the other article you are hovering over) but it would benefit people who review their watchlist for vandalism... or perhaps, any time you are reviewing your watchlist the default action should be to show history. Think this would be useful for others, or should I keep my big ideas to myself? 7 06:49, 9 February 2011 (UTC)

Seriously man, breathe. Some of your comments about the upgrade on VPT are making you seem like a total dick (which I absolutely don't think you are). I completely understand your frustration; personally, I think sometimes people are far too quick to complain (especially when the site is provided for free, but some people will just bitch no matter what), and the Internet's tendency for comments to become excessively grand ("oh man, this mundane change is the WORST EVAR!!!11!!!one!!") certainly doesn't help, but take a deep breath and don't let it get to you.
If you're getting worked up over someone's flippant (and to be honest, pretty ignorant) comment about stuff, take a step away and do something non-Wikipedia-related. EVula // talk // ☯ // 21:49, 18 February 2011 (UTC)

There are many, many people (myself included) that are extremely grateful you are here. I'm sure you know this, I just wanted to point it out, we are very thankful for all your efforts and for busting your ass with the upgade and all the fixes.
I also wanted to apologize for all the insensitive people that keep complaining. They do this out of ignorance, not knowing all the bugfixes and updates that are in the new release. They see some petty issue and raise a big stink about it. I wish people were a bit more aware of the big picture, unfortunately they are not. So I wanted to say sorry for all the crap you've had to deal with.
I wish I could express how much I value all your countless hours of help. I'll put it like this; If I could pay you $100,000/year, I would. And I'd still be getting a bargain. So thank you.

, which has the same size and structure (it's also a 12MB SVG with a huge embedded PNG), that does not exhibit this problem: including a link to the "...-en.svg" file does not hang MediaWiki.

Hi DJ, as you've been addressing some of the issues on the PUMP, would you mind taking a look (if and when you have time) at the thread about the Courier font having appeared in edit mode?

I've checked it with various browsers, and it's the same, and no settings have been changed. See Wikipedia:Village_pump_(technical)#Editing.

Hi TheDJ
Since you're the one who created MediaWiki:Common.css/WinFixes.css, perhaps you can help: There are still lots of templates out there that continue using explicit font definitions, just like {{ IPA}}, {{ polytonic}} and {{ Unicode}} used to do before you created WinFixes.css. It would be great if all explicit font definitions were concentrated in WinFixes.css so the explicit font definitions would no longer affect users with a capable browser.
Some of the templates that continue using explicit font definitions include: {{
script/Hebrew}} (which already assigns an unused class="script-hebrew"
), {{
lang-he-n}}, {{
lang-he}}, {{
script/Gaelic}}, {{
script/Cuneiform}}, {{
script/Runic}}, {{
script/Coptic}}, {{
script/Phoenician}}, {{
script/Slavonic}}, {{
okina}}.
If you don't have the time for fixing these templates and WinFixes.css, perhaps you know of another administrator whom I could address about this? Thanks anyway! -- mach ᵗᵃˡᵏ👍 08:08, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

Hi, I made a suggestion in a VPT discussion you were involved in; I wondered if you had any thoughts on that:
what if some developer(s) contributed just a little to the Signpost on a (semi)regular basis describing some of the trials and tribulations of what they're currently developing? One of the big problems in this area is lack of communication. If the community better understood what is involved and how hard it is, that would help, I think. Plus the Signpost has a feedback section - I'm sure you'd get encouragement/praise as well.
I did previously try something in that direction with WP:DEVMEMO, but that didn't work out. Perhaps something smaller and more informal, fitting into an existing process, might work? If you think the idea has legs, do you have any thoughts on how to organise it? Rd232 talk 22:47, 30 May 2011 (UTC)
Hello Derk-Jan,
How are you ? I expect you are busy in real life, cool. I was thinking at some point in the future, of updating the paragraph in the Origin section of the ISS page, and I was after your help in that matter, you see, I've done a lot of research in the past and I haven't ever heard of a canadian space station, or the Japanese Kibo laboratory being part of a space station program, and the European columbus I'm honestly not too sure about, I've never heard of it being a space station program, but I haven't studied it's origin very much that I can recall, just their current and future plans.
The current paragraph reads like this
According to the plan, the International Space Station programme would combine the proposed space stations of all participant agencies: NASA's Freedom, the RSA's Mir-2 (with DOS-8 later becoming Zvezda), ESA's Columbus, and the Japanese Kibō laboratory.[citation needed] When the first module, Zarya, was launched in 1998, the station was expected to be completed by 2003. Delays have led to a revised estimated completion date of 2011.

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Ernestina Herrera de Noble.png. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. George Ho ( talk) 22:46, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
Thank you for uploading File:Ernestina Herrera de Noble.png. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright and licensing status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can verify that it has an acceptable license status and a verifiable source. Please add this information by editing the image description page. You may refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads.

Dear TheDJ,
My name is Jonathan Obar user:Jaobar, I'm a professor in the College of Communication Arts and Sciences at Michigan State University and a Teaching Fellow with the Wikimedia Foundation's Education Program. This semester I've been running a little experiment at MSU, a class where we teach students about becoming Wikipedia administrators. Not a lot is known about your community, and our students (who are fascinated by wiki-culture by the way!) want to learn how you do what you do, and why you do it. A while back I proposed this idea (the class) to the community HERE, where it was met mainly with positive feedback. Anyhow, I'd like my students to speak with a few administrators to get a sense of admin experiences, training, motivations, likes, dislikes, etc. We were wondering if you'd be interested in speaking with one of our students.
So a few things about the interviews:
Bottom line is that we really need your help, and would really appreciate the opportunity to speak with you. If interested, please send me an email at obar@msu.edu (to maintain anonymity) and I will add your name to my offline contact list. If you feel comfortable doing so, you can post your name
HERE instead.
If you have questions or concerns at any time, feel free to email me at obar@msu.edu. I will be more than happy to speak with you.
Thanks in advance for your help. We have a lot to learn from you.
Sincerely,

hi.
i already reported the issue in User talk:Amalthea#Mediawiki:Gadget-popups.js bug, but unfortunately he/she seems a bit too busy and did not have time to look at it yet, so i'm asking you.
the bug itself is very obvious once you look at the code. the issue is that function removeTitle() destroys the value of a.title just before copying it to a.originalTitle, which is clearly wrong - we should copy first and nuke later. this is somewhat important, specifically because of other gadgets (e.g. cat-a-lot) that rely on title - we can train them to use "originalTitle" instead, but only if it actually have the correct value. this bug also screws up the operation of the functions restoreTitle() and removeTooltip(). the fix is very simple.

Due to a change in how we're handling page icons, we're about to start using your Edit Top script as a Gadget on our site, but it looks like our community would prefer that the [edit] link be to the left of any page icons rather than on the outside edge of the page.

(Re: this discussion from MediaWiki talk:Common.js) OK, so the planned migration is firm. I had taken the earlier answer as an definite-maybe.
I looked at the jquery.tablesorter.js script and it appears to do a good job of handling rowspan and colspan in the header, but not the body. As far as adapting it to MediaWiki, I assume we would need some function to map the existing "sortable" class to "tablesorter", or modify the .js to recognize the "sortable" class. We would also need to move the header rows into a thead block. That would give us the basic functionality, but I would assume you or someone is already working on that. Rows tagged as "sortbottom" and "unsortable" (fixed-in-place) likely present some complications that might require some changes to the core sort algorithm. Perhaps some kind of before-sort and after-sort callbacks might allow custom code to set aside and later restore the fixed data rows. I am sure there are many other issues regarding the features and quirks of the current implementation that would best be preserved to maintain backward compatibility.
Can I be of assistance? Is there a list of tasks looking for a developer? -- Tom N (tcncv) talk/ contrib 02:55, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

Was thinking about copying MW Popups and making my own variant, but before I create that kind of a code fork I thought I'd run an idea by you and see if you think this would make sense to change for everyone who uses the interface. The idea, put simply, is that when mousing over any talk page (user talk, article talk, WP talk, etc...) instead of seeing a preview (which I feel like is usually an out of date top line of the talk page, or some other non-relevant content) the default action would be to see the history of the page. This wouldn't change the beauty of reading popups mid-article (where you can see the lead of the other article you are hovering over) but it would benefit people who review their watchlist for vandalism... or perhaps, any time you are reviewing your watchlist the default action should be to show history. Think this would be useful for others, or should I keep my big ideas to myself? 7 06:49, 9 February 2011 (UTC)

Seriously man, breathe. Some of your comments about the upgrade on VPT are making you seem like a total dick (which I absolutely don't think you are). I completely understand your frustration; personally, I think sometimes people are far too quick to complain (especially when the site is provided for free, but some people will just bitch no matter what), and the Internet's tendency for comments to become excessively grand ("oh man, this mundane change is the WORST EVAR!!!11!!!one!!") certainly doesn't help, but take a deep breath and don't let it get to you.

Could you please take a look at this bug? I have a feeling that this might be related to the other SVG problems that were pointed out at the Commons. (However, it's entirely possible that it is something else entirely.) Lupo 21:18, 19 February 2011 (UTC)
[[:File:Puerto_Rico_ecosystems_map-fr.svg]]
, so no display of this SVG), hangs MediaWiki. It would be understandable if MediaWiki had problems displaying this file; but that it chokes already on just referencing its description page is really bizarre. Furthermore, there is a second file; [[:File:Puerto_Rico_ecosystems_map-en.svg]]
, which has the same size and structure (it's also a 12MB SVG with a huge embedded PNG), that does not exhibit this problem: including a link to the "...-en.svg" file does not hang MediaWiki.

Hi. I posted at VPT recently and you told me to identify the problematic scripts. I've discovered that User:Omegatron/monobook.js/floatingSidebar.js is causing the vertical strip on the left of my page to be shifted down.

Hi DJ, as you've been addressing some of the issues on the PUMP, would you mind taking a look (if and when you have time) at the thread about the Courier font having appeared in edit mode? It's not so easy to edit with, and it's causing some distortions with symbols. Any advice about how to get our old fonts back in edit mode would be much appreciated. I've checked it with various browsers, and it's the same, and no settings have been changed. See Wikipedia:Village_pump_(technical)#Editing. By the way, in case it helps you to pin down what happened, it started for me at around 18:00 hours (UTC) on February 20. Many thanks, SlimVirgin TALK| CONTRIBS 17:45, 22 February 2011 (UTC)

I would like some images of mine removed from Wikipedia/Wikimedia; I don't want to be associated with them, and they sometimes come up when my name is Googled. They also serve no real purpose, and are not being used on any Wikis and do not contribute anything useful. I was wondering if you or any other admin could delete them. The images in question are:

Hi TheDJ
Since you're the one who created MediaWiki:Common.css/WinFixes.css, perhaps you can help: There are still lots of templates out there that continue using explicit font definitions, just like {{ IPA}}, {{ polytonic}} and {{ Unicode}} used to do before you created WinFixes.css. It would be great if all explicit font definitions were concentrated in WinFixes.css so the explicit font definitions would no longer affect users with a capable browser.
Some of the templates that continue using explicit font definitions include: {{
script/Hebrew}} (which already assigns an unused class="script-hebrew"
), {{
lang-he-n}}, {{
lang-he}}, {{
script/Gaelic}}, {{
script/Cuneiform}}, {{
script/Runic}}, {{
script/Coptic}}, {{
script/Phoenician}}, {{
script/Slavonic}}, {{
okina}}.
If you don't have the time for fixing these templates and WinFixes.css, perhaps you know of another administrator whom I could address about this? Thanks anyway! -- mach ᵗᵃˡᵏ👍 08:08, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

Hi, I made a suggestion in a VPT discussion you were involved in; I wondered if you had any thoughts on that:
what if some developer(s) contributed just a little to the Signpost on a (semi)regular basis describing some of the trials and tribulations of what they're currently developing? One of the big problems in this area is lack of communication. If the community better understood what is involved and how hard it is, that would help, I think. Plus the Signpost has a feedback section - I'm sure you'd get encouragement/praise as well.
I did previously try something in that direction with WP:DEVMEMO, but that didn't work out. Perhaps something smaller and more informal, fitting into an existing process, might work? If you think the idea has legs, do you have any thoughts on how to organise it? Rd232 talk 22:47, 30 May 2011 (UTC)
Hello Derk-Jan,
How are you ? I expect you are busy in real life, cool. I was thinking at some point in the future, of updating the paragraph in the Origin section of the ISS page, and I was after your help in that matter, you see, I've done a lot of research in the past and I haven't ever heard of a canadian space station, or the Japanese Kibo laboratory being part of a space station program, and the European columbus I'm honestly not too sure about, I've never heard of it being a space station program, but I haven't studied it's origin very much that I can recall, just their current and future plans.
The current paragraph reads like this
According to the plan, the International Space Station programme would combine the proposed space stations of all participant agencies: NASA's Freedom, the RSA's Mir-2 (with DOS-8 later becoming Zvezda), ESA's Columbus, and the Japanese Kibō laboratory.[citation needed] When the first module, Zarya, was launched in 1998, the station was expected to be completed by 2003. Delays have led to a revised estimated completion date of 2011.
Do you know where I might find info on space station programs for those 3 partners ? the other 2, Russia and America, I've quite familiar with. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Penyulap ( talk • contribs) 22:03, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

You may refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Dear TheDJ,
My name is Jonathan Obar user:Jaobar, I'm a professor in the College of Communication Arts and Sciences at Michigan State University and a Teaching Fellow with the Wikimedia Foundation's Education Program. This semester I've been running a little experiment at MSU, a class where we teach students about becoming Wikipedia administrators. Not a lot is known about your community, and our students (who are fascinated by wiki-culture by the way!) want to learn how you do what you do, and why you do it. A while back I proposed this idea (the class) to the community HERE, where it was met mainly with positive feedback. Anyhow, I'd like my students to speak with a few administrators to get a sense of admin experiences, training, motivations, likes, dislikes, etc. We were wondering if you'd be interested in speaking with one of our students.
So a few things about the interviews:
Bottom line is that we really need your help, and would really appreciate the opportunity to speak with you. If interested, please send me an email at obar@msu.edu (to maintain anonymity) and I will add your name to my offline contact list. If you feel comfortable doing so, you can post your name
HERE instead.
If you have questions or concerns at any time, feel free to email me at obar@msu.edu. I will be more than happy to speak with you.
Thanks in advance for your help. We have a lot to learn from you.

hi.
i already reported the issue in User talk:Amalthea#Mediawiki:Gadget-popups.js bug, but unfortunately he/she seems a bit too busy and did not have time to look at it yet, so i'm asking you.
the bug itself is very obvious once you look at the code. the issue is that function removeTitle() destroys the value of a.title just before copying it to a.originalTitle, which is clearly wrong - we should copy first and nuke later. this is somewhat important, specifically because of other gadgets (e.g. cat-a-lot) that rely on title - we can train them to use "originalTitle" instead, but only if it actually have the correct value. this bug also screws up the operation of the functions restoreTitle() and removeTooltip(). the fix is very simple.

FYI – Summary of recent updates: diff. Includes improved \oiint and \oiiint support, support for \textsf and \texttt (\emph is a text mode command and should not be supported, IMO), support for \vline (works perfectly in HTML-CSS output mode), noErrors.js extension has been removed (no idea why I had included it in the first place), and support for the RGB color model (so \definecolor does not fail anymore).

Keep up the good work! I've hatted a piece of sourcecode that caused horizontal scrollbars to appear; I hope you don't mind.

Due to a change in how we're handling page icons, we're about to start using your Edit Top script as a Gadget on our site, but it looks like our community would prefer that the [edit] link be to the left of any page icons rather than on the outside edge of the page. Is this something you can do easily? I'm certainly willing to look at it myself, but my DOM and Javascript skills are next to nil, so I'd probably struggle with it for some time before getting it. Thanks either way! – RobinHood70 talk 01:05, 3 May 2012 (UTC)
