could it be &diff=0
? That way if there are other edits they'll get lumped in (if not, no worries).

Thanks for closing Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2024 March 20#AFI templates. However, as this was a recently created template and previous consensus was to delete, shouldn't a "no consensus" outcome result in the status quo? i.e. there is no consensus to re-create the template? -- wooden superman 12:50, 3 April 2024 (UTC)
Hi Primefac. Would you mind taking a look at {{
di-missing article links}} and {{
di-missing some article links}}? There are two parameters (|date=
and |articles=
) that probably should be filled by those using these templates, but neither parameter is mentioned on the templates' documetation pages. The |date=
parameter seems to add files tagged with these templates to
Category:Disputed non-free Wikipedia files, which is used by file reviewers and bots to check on files with
WP:NFCCE issues, while the |articles=
parameter allows those tagging files to or those trying to cleanup such files to identify the exact article or articles not complying with
WP:NFCC#10c. I've always used these parameters when using these template, but just noticed there's nothing mentioned about them of the files' documentation pages. I'm not sure if that's intentional or just an oversight; so, I thought I'd ask someone else to take a look. --

places the image in dated subcategoriesdoesn't say how it does this, i.e. that it needs a date parameter to be passed to it. Primefac ( talk) 11:33, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
Hello, Primefac,
I realize you have a lot of responsibilities on Wikipedia and this one is probably way, way down on your list of priorities but is there any way this page can be brought up to date? I was looking for when a certain editor received AFC permissions and this page was where I directed since they didn't come up on the search feature. But the table only goes to February 2023 so it is a year out of date. And then, when I clicked on some names, they were actually requests from February 2024, not 2023 so I'm not sure how those wires got crossed. This definitely seems like a task that could be delegated to some AFC helper who is knowledgeable about tables and updating them (which is definitely not me!). But since on the Participants page, editors are directed to go to this one page, it seems like it should be kept up to date as much as possible. Yes, it's not urgent but I do think it's important when trying to get background information on an editor one has questions about. Many thanks for any help you can supply. Liz Read!

Hi, Primefac! I want to post a request to resign as an administrator. No great problem or anything, it's just that I haven't been very active in recent years and have taken almost no adminship actions. When I do post it is in articles, and I intend to keep doing that, but I've almost forgotten how to be an administrator. That is why I am posting here: I think there is a board where I should formally request to have my mop withdrawn, but I can't remember where it is. Directions please? Thanks! --MelanieN MelanieN ( talk) 19:59, 11 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi. I hope you are doing well. On mrwiki, where I am admin too, there's a category "files not in use" with around 8,000 files in it, all of which need to be deleted. Is there a way to automate the task if it was here on enwiki? Maybe some script, or AWB, or maybe I will need to come up with pywikibot script. —usernamekiran (talk) 20:32, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
Thanks for dealing with that so promptly, seems to be resolved now. Regards, Justlettersandnumbers ( talk) 11:20, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
Please reverse your close. On March 20 you relisted the discussion to obtain a clearer consensus. This clarity was achieved with three 'Keep' !votes and one 'Delete'. You then, after obtaining the requested clearer consensus, closed as 'Delete'. Please reverse on common sense alone, thanks. Randy Kryn ( talk) 00:34, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

What has gone on here? I’m suddenly receiving an alert that I’m mentioned on a talk page about a template for deletion that I don’t have any recollection of.
Let me be clear: my intention has always been that my contributions are in the public domain.
I can’t see the deleted template so I have no idea even what it said.
I understand that Wikipedia adopted a CC license _after_ I stopped actively editing. Legally this does not matter, I am free to license my contributions as I wish (as long as the license is less restrictive than that which Wikipedia uses). Apparently I’m not supposed to edit the TFD page but otherwise how will I get in contact with the admin who said OK? I don’t even have time to edit anymore, generally.
Also, have y’all heard of the GPL? Seems like a pretty good license to me…
Please hit me back via email

Hi Primefac. I would have hoped for a slightly less robotic response from you here. I understand that changes to protected templates need to be proposed and discussed, but that already happened, and why should a single non-policy-based objection block an otherwise straightforward change? Since you have taken responsibility for reverting the change, could you do us a favour and try to move the discussion forward a bit, rather than sitting on the fence? – Joe ( talk) 09:20, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
If you had waited more than an hour I had made my change, and that change hadn't been made yesterday– I don't understand what this means. – Joe ( talk) 13:32, 23 April 2024 (UTC)
As you deal almost exclusively with approving the AfC participants, can you go through the probationary members and either transfer them to normal members or remove them. Nagol0929 ( talk) 14:39, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
Hi, I’ve re-uploaded my edit. I riffed off of Chisenhale Gallery which is a very similar space to Beaconsfield. The gallery has been deeply underserved by the previous entry and so this is a larger update. This is non profit space and needs the support. Please do not undo. If you feel it’s excessive explain where instead of just deleting all the new entries. Thanks BeacHal1 ( talk) 18:48, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

Primefac, would you run a SOCK check for me? A user with a nine-day-old account has created one rather heavily biased article Bouchet Graduate Honor Society, and had offered a rather biased and over-weighted set of edits to the summary article on Honor society. I adjusted that second article, but looking at the user WikiObjectivity, something appears amiss. His/her offerings were rather advanced for a nine-day-old Wikipedia newbie.

Would you be able to take a quick look at a pending bot task request for me? It's a new task, but it is primarily regular expressions from an existing approved task - just being used for a different template and maintenance category.
New task:
ButlerBlogBot task 4 to format dates in the {{
Infobox film}} template |released=
parameter to use the {{
Film date}} template.
This task uses a number of regular expressions that are already used in
ButlerBlogBot task 2, just modified to check only the |released=
param and to use {{
Film date}} instead of {{
Start date}}. Initially, I'm only looking at single dates, not ranges. But I think that could account for around 15k-20k of
the existing list. I've already spot checked results in AWB, and it's ready for testing.
