Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
| |
Hi Pppery, I wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas |
I'm looking at nominating Module:Rail with T3 speedy for duplication, does that seem like the right one for this situation? Cards84664 (talk) 00:02, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
Take a look at Wood Street station (PAAC) as an example, Adjacent stations is pulling "toward to" instead of "toward". Can you fix that? Cards84664 (talk) 05:11, 4 February 2019 (UTC)
Your recent edit deletes the code <noinclude
> and </noinclude
> from the template "Year in various calendar" used in the article "
Template:C11–17 year in topic". However, you should remain "year=1250" in the template "Year in various calendar", which used in the article "
Template:C11–17 year in topic". 123.150.182.177 10:57, 8 February 2019 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on Template:IPA\Transwiki requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:
Unused redirect with awkward backslash leftover from a rename
Under the criteria for speedy deletion, pages that meet certain criteria 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 "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 deleted 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, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. —[ AlanM1( talk)]— 19:55, 11 February 2019 (UTC)

Thanks so much for doing all the tricky template work at Template:Tfm and Template:Tfm/dated, I appreciate you stepping in where I came up short. More impressively, I might add, is that you not only came back and back to fix things up, but took care of various other things as well. Truly a tireless contributor! ~ Amory ( u • t • c) 02:12, 18 February 2019 (UTC) |
Question for ya. What is the purpose of User:Pppery/noinclude list??? I keep seeing that page show up in TFDs as the only page transcluding a template that is about to be deleted. Just curious what that is for. Thanks! -- Zackmann ( Talk to me/ What I been doing) 01:52, 22 February 2019 (UTC)
title:getContent()
on every page at TfD, which records a transclusion. Also, it should only transclude pages with open TfDs, so it shouldn't interfere with the process of deleting templates: close the TfD and the transclusion should go away.

I saw this and figured that this list and this script might come in handy. Pinging @ MusikAnimal who asked for a list. -- DannyS712 ( talk) 04:19, 25 February 2019 (UTC)
@ MusikAnimal: OK, I'm back at the protection-management task again. Please fully-protect all pages in Category:Pages used in system messages needing protection, an auto-generated category I just created that categorizes all pages tagged as {{ Used in system}} that aren't already fully-protected. Pppery, the protection wizard 21:22, 25 February 2019 (UTC)
@
MusikAnimal: One final set of pages to template-protect as modules/stylesheets of protected templates is available at
User:Pppery/pages to protect. I'm reusing
User:Pppery/pages to protect for a different task
{{3x|p}}ery (
talk) 03:10, 4 March 2019 (UTC)
Of the pages that will still be left in the bad protection level categories after this:
How is Template:!Cite/doc not a subpage of a deleted page? Template:!Cite is a redirect to Template:Full citation needed. Am I missing something? -- Gonnym ( talk) 22:28, 26 February 2019 (UTC)
Hi Pppery, I moved the template and module per Requested move; but you need to fix documentation text manually in the Module. Regards, Xain36 ( talk) 03:36, 27 February 2019 (UTC)
Can you clarify what you meant by template limit issues? Asking because of your revert on Module:TfdLinks. -- Zackmann ( Talk to me/ What I been doing) 18:17, 27 February 2019 (UTC)
You have been involved in previous similar discussions. A new batch of wrappers has been proposed for replacement: Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2019 February 28#Infobox settlement wrappers 89.12.133.115 ( talk) 05:35, 28 February 2019 (UTC)
RMs usually turn into !voting and zero discussion which was why I didn't open it as one. From the two comments already there, this will probably be the case here. -- Gonnym ( talk) 16:18, 28 February 2019 (UTC)
Your appalling rudeness in moving pages such as Module talk:WikidataIB/testing that I've invested so much time into, yet you have never contributed to, without any discussion or a notification to me is unacceptable. This is not the first time you've fiddled with work that I've spent so much time on - the documentation at Module:WikidataIB is a classic example of you deciding that you know best about what should be included in a module and stripping out the documentation of whatever you didn't like. If I don't get assurances from you that this is the last time I have to complain about such actions on your part, I'll be taking steps to see you topic banned from the area of modules. -- RexxS ( talk) 00:04, 1 March 2019 (UTC)
You seem to have broken Point group. J G Campbell ( talk) 00:32, 2 March 2019 (UTC)
Based on your Module:String crusade, I thought you might have some insights on this. See all the templates at Template:Yes documentation. They all (or mostly all) seem to have the same exact code, with the only difference in the class and color values. Seems to me that a module doing that work with the templates only supplying the variables would make for much better maintaining of current templates, and for the creation of newer ones (as I'm pretty sure that some of the editors just copy/paste without actually understanding the code). Thoughts? -- Gonnym ( talk) 14:04, 3 March 2019 (UTC)
Module:Storm name has been nominated for deletion. You are invited to comment on the discussion at the module's entry on the Templates for discussion page. Johnuniq ( talk) 02:41, 5 March 2019 (UTC)
Hi. Do you think you could take a look at some of the <6 pending requests> I have open?
Thanks, -- DannyS712 ( talk) 08:38, 7 March 2019 (UTC)
Regarding your XfD notice on User talk:AnomieBOT, due to this edit by bot operator, please do not add any XfD notice on this page, thanks Hhkohh ( talk) 03:25, 11 March 2019 (UTC)
I evidently misunderstood what was happening with Module:Text_count. Would you mind helping with the actual conversion? Its been sitting in the holding cell for almost a month. Thanks! -- Zackmann ( Talk to me/ What I been doing) 20:38, 11 March 2019 (UTC)
Feel free to fold my comments on Wikipedia_talk:Template_namespace#RfC_on_templates_storing_data into the intro to the whole discussion. -- Zackmann ( Talk to me/ What I been doing) 23:38, 15 March 2019 (UTC)
Hello, this morning I noticed a problem on some articles where
NaNs kept appearing in inflation-adjusted currency amounts. For an example, see
Macy's, Inc. I couldn't pinpoint the problem so I
asked the Village Pump, and the problem was traced back to
this edit. The cause is that the output of {{
Inflation}}
is often piped to {{
Formatprice}}
, and {{
Formatprice}}
doesn't like numbers in human readable scientific notation (like 6.022×1023). {{
Decimals}}
used to output in computer readable scientific notation (like 6.022E+23), but {{
Rnd}}
does not. Do you have any objection to reverting your edit until a solution can be found that prevents these errors? Thanks. —

Hi Pppery, just fyi, you fulfilled an edit request in Rising Sun Flag, which was actually made by indefinitely-blocked user:Shingling334. He often places the "{{Help}}" template on protected article talk pages, asking for changes. He sometimes edits via VPNs, or sometimes just directly from his ISP, "Talk Talk Essex". Typical subjects are related to Northern Cyprus, Turkey, Macedonia, Azerbaijan, any "de facto" states, politicians, and so on. The section in question has in the meantime been removed for unrelated reasons, so it's a moot point, but you might want to double-check before answering similar "help" requests in the future, thanks. -- IamNotU ( talk) 01:14, 19 March 2019 (UTC)
Hi Pppery
I closed Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2019_March_17#Category:Pages_with_graphs as rename, but can't figure how the modules are populkating the categories.
Please can you help? -- BrownHairedGirl (talk) • ( contribs) 12:09, 26 March 2019 (UTC)
