Hiya Tra. You removed this sd tag [1] at James Picken on the basis that several other editors had ammended the article. That's fair enough of course, but my understanding was that you could db-author as long as the changes were not substantial. My only interest is that I advised the editor to do it this way as he tried to blank it instead. I appreciate substantial is open to interpretation, but looking at the edit history the edits other than those by the original author were all minor (spelling, cats ect etc) I'm not fussed on the deletion or not (If as the author maintains the article is factually wrong I will prod it) but just wanted a clarification on your view - should I have proded rather than advised the editor to use the sd tag ?

Can you please undelete User:SLSB/UBX? I did not request deletion of that but I did on two userboxes that were on that page so it was deleted accidentally. Thanks! SLSB talk • contrib 16:04, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

Hey, I installed your user watchlist script, but it doesn't seem to be functioning. Whenever I load the page, it says "Below are the edits made in the last 1 day by users on your watchlist," but nothing comes up. I know for a fact I've got hundreds of users' talk pages on my watchlist. Can you think of anything that may have happened? Thanks! Glass Cobra ( Review) 14:37, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
Would it be possible to arrange the list alphabetically as well? Currently it is arranged according to the native name of the language, but makes the list look ike this:
German (Deutsch) Spanish (Español) French (Français)
It looks an unordered mess that makes me have to guess where a langage is situated. Thank you for your consideration, Chris DHDR 18:13, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for fixing the Firearms template to allow grams to be used. The template has another problem. Look at .50 BMG and you will see that "Overall length 5.45 in (138.43 mm)". This is excessive precision. It should really only be '138 mm'.
I think all these problems is because the template is trying to be too clever. It should be just like other templates and simply have a field name such as 'Overall length' and editors can then write whatever they want. For example '5.45 in (138 mm)'. If automated conversion is required, there are other templates that can do that in a much simpler way.
Can you investigate a fix for this problem of precision? Or, like me, would you like to suggest a major simplification of the template? Lightmouse ( talk) 09:19, 24 November 2007 (UTC)
