Hi Ohconfucius, it doesn't fit grammatically in a lot of cases: [1] Tony (talk) 04:59, 3 December 2022 (UTC)
The file File:Snoopy mural.jpg has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
No Freedom of panorama in France. Underlying artwork would be still copyrighted
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}}
notice, but please explain why in your
edit summary or on
the file's talk page.
Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}}
will stop the
proposed deletion process, but other
deletion processes exist. In particular, the
speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and

Hello,
I've come across the use of the script User:Ohconfucius/script/MOSNUM_dates
I'd appreciate a pointer as to where I can ask for help in using the script bearing in mind that I've no idea how to use scripts to edit Wikipedia - I have had a look at the MOSNUM_dates page and just run into a brick wall (there are too many terms used of which I have negligible or less understanding).
In particular, I'd like to learn how to use the script to force the use of yyyy-mm-dd in access and archive dates in article citations (in line with Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Dates and numbers#Consistency).
(I did read that "Users are invited to manually add |cs1-dates=
parameter to {{
Use dmy dates}} or {{
Use mdy dates}} causing applicable dates to be rendered in 2024-04-27 YMD format" but I can't work out what that means.)
Thank you.

Hi: I don't know if you saw above, but I am comfortable with User:DavidBrooks/script/MOSNUM dates.js if you want to copy it. Some users, especially GiantSnowman, have been checking it out.
I also did a simpler change to User:DavidBrooks/script/EngvarB.js, just to keep Short Description on the top using the same technique as my first version of the MOSNUM script. It seems fine. David Brooks ( talk) 22:08, 12 January 2024 (UTC)

Thank you for uploading File:HK 60 anniv stamps.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.
If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. Vanjagenije (talk) 23:08, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
I've noticed that the dashes.js script does not work when syntax highlighting is enabled. This appears to be because a single textarea element is not used in the editor when syntax highlighting is enabled. The script assumes that there is a single textarea (wpTextbox1).
What I did to fix this is to disable syntax highlighting before editing the source, and then re-enable syntax highlighting afterwards. (I haven't tried it with dashes.js, but it does work on a test script I made. Also I'm not sure mw-editbutton-code-mirror is the correct id to use, but you get the point).
const highlightButton = $("#mw-editbutton-codemirror").find("a");
const highlight = highlightButton.attr('aria-pressed');
if (highlight === "true") {
// Disable syntax highlighting
highlightButton0].click();
}
...
if (highlight=== "true") {
// Re-enable syntax highlighting
highlightButton0].click();
}

Hi: I don't know if you saw above, but I am comfortable with User:DavidBrooks/script/MOSNUM dates.js if you want to copy it. Some users, especially GiantSnowman, have been checking it out.
I also did a simpler change to User:DavidBrooks/script/EngvarB.js, just to keep Short Description on the top using the same technique as my first version of the MOSNUM script. It seems fine. David Brooks ( talk) 22:08, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
Hi, I have another (smaller) list of maintenance requests:

Thank you for uploading File:HK 60 anniv stamps.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.
If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. Vanjagenije (talk) 23:08, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
I've noticed that the dashes.js script does not work when syntax highlighting is enabled. This appears to be because a single textarea element is not used in the editor when syntax highlighting is enabled. The script assumes that there is a single textarea (wpTextbox1).
What I did to fix this is to disable syntax highlighting before editing the source, and then re-enable syntax highlighting afterwards. (I haven't tried it with dashes.js, but it does work on a test script I made. Also I'm not sure mw-editbutton-code-mirror is the correct id to use, but you get the point).
const highlightButton = $("#mw-editbutton-codemirror").find("a");
const highlight = highlightButton.attr('aria-pressed');
if (highlight === "true") {
// Disable syntax highlighting
highlightButton0].click();
}
...
if (highlight=== "true") {
// Re-enable syntax highlighting
highlightButton0].click();
}
