I noticed you did an Adminbot task back in December 2018 to fix multiple unclosed formatting tag and other high priority Lint errors. I guess there are still about a thousand protected pages with Lint errors. With MalnadachBot working on other pages, I think now is a good time to renew this task and try to get all types of errors. ಮಲ್ನಾಡಾಚ್ ಕೊಂಕ್ಣೊ ( talk) 08:12, 25 March 2022 (UTC)

Greetings, WOSlinker! You may recall that about a year ago you kindly adjusted several infoboxes to display alternative text for images based on the alt= parameter overriding the caption. You can see our discussions about that at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Albums/Archive 64#Alternative text for album cover in infobox and at User talk:WOSlinker/Archive 10#More alternative text for images in infoboxes.

H:BR reads:
While valid forms without the /
(such as <br>
or <br >
) will work properly in the rendered page because modern browsers are forgiving of
malformed HTML, they can break several of the available
syntax highlighters for wiki code in the editing view (mis-highlighting all text in the page after the occurrence of that tag), and so should be avoided.
Template:Break inserts <br/ >

This is a formal warning about WP:DISRUPTIVE activity. Once again, I've undone your last 45 template edits because they:
While none of these edits involved the use of administrator tools, nevertheless, this is a really bad look for an admin, and very likely a violation of WP:ADMINCOND, on top of everything else. What were you thinking? Please go improve some articles, instead of this pointless diddling of templates that you have no involvement with, and apparently no interest in. Further disruption of this type, and I will be forced to take you to one of the boards for further assessment of your editing behavior. Just go back to your regular editing, and this will all fade away and be forgotten. Thanks, Mathglot ( talk) 18:48, 27 November 2022 (UTC)

In this week's database report for Wikipedia:Database reports/Template categories containing articles there are couple template categories flooded with articles. Category:Canada education navigational boxes and Category:Navigational box wrapper templates. Also the templates on those pages have unwanted content being transcluded on the template and in the articles that use them. Pretty big mess. See A. Y. Jackson Secondary School (Ottawa) and Template:OCDSB schools for an example.

Hey WOS, you protected Template:KMT and Template:DPP a decade ago, for being used heavily.

Hello, WOSlinker,
I'm not sure why but you are removing CFD tags from categories that still require action be taken with them. Most of these WikiProject members categories have to be moved to WikiProject participant categories. I'm not sure why User:JJMC89 bot III is taken so long with these page moves but I don't think the deletion tags should be removed when the categories still require page moves.

It seems that it was maybe somehow caused by some edit you made... I'm pretty new here and I don't understand how this technical things work. It's a thing that can be fixed? Or because the Classical music Wikiproject does not assess articles the bot won't be able to function again?

Greetings, WOSlinker! You may recall that about a year ago you kindly adjusted several infoboxes to display alternative text for images based on the alt= parameter overriding the caption. You can see our discussions about that at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Albums/Archive 64#Alternative text for album cover in infobox and at User talk:WOSlinker/Archive 10#More alternative text for images in infoboxes. I would like to request that you do the same for the infobox-related template {{ Extra album cover}}. — Mudwater ( Talk) 22:42, 20 November 2022 (UTC)
H:BR reads:
While valid forms without the /
(such as <br>
or <br >
) will work properly in the rendered page because modern browsers are forgiving of
malformed HTML, they can break several of the available
syntax highlighters for wiki code in the editing view (mis-highlighting all text in the page after the occurrence of that tag), and so should be avoided.
Template:Break inserts <br/ >
, which is proper form. Why, in
Template:Symphyotrichum subg. Symphyotrichum cladogram, did you remove the call to the template and replace it with <br>

This is a formal warning about WP:DISRUPTIVE activity. Once again, I've undone your last 45 template edits because they:
While none of these edits involved the use of administrator tools, nevertheless, this is a really bad look for an admin, and very likely a violation of WP:ADMINCOND, on top of everything else. What were you thinking? Please go improve some articles, instead of this pointless diddling of templates that you have no involvement with, and apparently no interest in. Further disruption of this type, and I will be forced to take you to one of the boards for further assessment of your editing behavior. Just go back to your regular editing, and this will all fade away and be forgotten. Thanks, Mathglot ( talk) 18:48, 27 November 2022 (UTC)

In this week's database report for Wikipedia:Database reports/Template categories containing articles there are couple template categories flooded with articles. Category:Canada education navigational boxes and Category:Navigational box wrapper templates. Also the templates on those pages have unwanted content being transcluded on the template and in the articles that use them. Pretty big mess. See A. Y. Jackson Secondary School (Ottawa) and Template:OCDSB schools for an example.
I don't know if this edit of yours has anything to do with it (looks like it might) but either way I hope you can help. Thanks. -- DB1729 talk 16:42, 22 May 2023 (UTC)

Hey WOS, you protected Template:KMT and Template:DPP a decade ago, for being used heavily.

Hello, WOSlinker,
I'm not sure why but you are removing CFD tags from categories that still require action be taken with them. Most of these WikiProject members categories have to be moved to WikiProject participant categories. I'm not sure why User:JJMC89 bot III is taken so long with these page moves but I don't think the deletion tags should be removed when the categories still require page moves. But maybe you have an explanation for this that I don't see. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 01:42, 20 October 2023 (UTC)

It seems that it was maybe somehow caused by some edit you made... I'm pretty new here and I don't understand how this technical things work. It's a thing that can be fixed? Or because the Classical music Wikiproject does not assess articles the bot won't be able to function again?
