Problems

Wikimedia tested a new data center last week. This meant that the wikis could be read but not edited for 45 minutes on April 19 and for 20 minutes on April 21. [1]
When the data center was tested, new edits were not shown in the recent changes log for 20 minutes. They are in the logs now. You can read more about how to find the edits.
Unread notifications were sometimes counted incorrectly. This has now been fixed. [2]

Changes this week

Wikimedia Commons will have better access to Wikidata. They can use data from any page on Wikidata on any page on Commons. This will happen on April 26. [3]
It will be easier to choose if you want to watch files you have uploaded with the upload wizard. [4]
The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from April 26. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from April 27. It will be on all wikis from April 28 ( calendar).

Meetings

You can join the next meeting with the VisualEditor team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. The meeting will be on April 26 19:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Future changes

The "Save page" button when you edit will be called "Publish" instead. This is to help new editors understand what it does. It already works like this on some wikis. [5]

Apologies, and please

If we reverted any substantive edits of yours, please re-introduce, and I apologize.

Otherwise, policy allows for the in-markup notes, and there is nothing wrong with the edits, turning the one section into mixed prose and lists, and allowing the other lists to stand. There is insufficient content in the list entry bullets to justify their being turned into sentences. Cheers. Le Prof Leprof 7272 ( talk) 14:40, 8 May 2016 (UTC)

This belongs in the article's talk. There is a reason for the prose tags and that is discussed there. As for the in-markup notes, they are not professional in tone and could be reduced. I don't think they need to be there at all, but I will compromise a bit. Stevie is the man! ^{Talk •

Help!

Nathaniel G. S. Hart, an article I created, received a re-assessment from another WikiProject and, because of technical issues, they changed the assessments for all the other Projects (see Talk:Nathaniel G. S. Hart#Suggestions for Improvements). Anyway, so now the article needs to be re-assessed for WikiProject Kentucky. If you could maybe re-assess it now I would really appreciate it. I tried to figure out where to post a request for a reassessment on the WikiProject but I gave up - it looks like maybe some of the sections seem to have been stale I think... Thanks, Shearonink ( talk) 05:55, 13 May 2016 (UTC)

Plagiarism detection

Hi! You voted for improving plagiarism detection as an important suggestions in the community wishlist survey last year. I'm pinging people who showed interest in that task to tell them we have some suggestions for how things could look, if you'd like to glance at them and give us some feedback. They're available here: phab:T120435#2266283. It's easiest if comments are left in Phabricator, since that's where much of the development is happening, but they can be left on Meta too, of course. / Johan (WMF) ( talk) 17:16, 13 May 2016 (UTC)

Bybee, Kentucky

Are we 100% sure it is only in Madison County? I'm asking because it was entered in the template for Clark County communities also till I removed it. ...William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 18:17, 23 May 2016 (UTC)

Invitation to join soon to be formed Kentucky Wikimedians User Group

Hello Steve,

Kentucky Wikimedian User Group, an independent affiliate of Wikimedia Foundation, is being formed to provide outreach and assistance to individuals and organizations in Kentucky who want to create and improve Wikipedia content.

User groups are an easy way for Wikipedians to better organize in order to collaborate with other local Wikipedians or local institutions. The requirements for establishing and running them are quite simple. The main requirement is to have 3 people agree to join and share their contact information with Wikimedia Foundation.

As one of the most active Wikipedians from Kentucky, I would be pleased to have you be one of the founding members of the user group.

To join the group, sign on meta here. Sydney Poore/ FloNight ♥♥♥♥ 20:44, 25 May 2016 (UTC)

Changes this week

When you edit a file or category page with the visual editor the rest of the page will be shown in its normal place. [34]
The Translate extension will get an edit summary field. [35]
A change to the <charinsert> feature could break some user scripts. Contact Bawolff if the "click to insert special characters" links in the edit window break on your wiki. [36] [37]
Elasticsearch will be upgraded on Wikimedia wikis this week. This should not affect you, but if you have problems with the search function this is probably the reason. [38]

Note

Regarding this, you may not have noticed that the user is indef'd and has had his talk page privilege taken away, hence he cannot respond. ← Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} carrots→ 20:00, 5 June 2016 (UTC)

Maybe the editor will read it, though, and that's good enough for me. Stevie is the man! ^{Talk •
Work} 20:03, 5 June 2016 (UTC)

I see. He has a number of sockpuppets, as it turns out, but there's always the chance he'll read the note on this particular one. Whether he'll heed it is another question. ← Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} carrots→ 20:05, 5 June 2016 (UTC)

Here is a good starting point. 50.253.212.229 ( talk) 02:05, 6 June 2016 (UTC)

I appreciate your bringing that up, for a good laugh, as the notion of my being a sock was laughed out of the room. The case to which I referred earlier is Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Who R U?. ← Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} carrots→ 02:46, 6 June 2016 (UTC)

Well, lets just say there wasn't enough evidence to convict you. Best bet is for you to stick to your chat groups and do your occasional Court Jester routine at the admin boards. 50.253.212.229 ( talk) 10:50, 6 June 2016 (UTC)

Zero evidence certainly qualifies as "not enough" evidence. As for the request for pictures, I don't recall ever seeing or using that page, but since you know my history so well, maybe you could refresh my memory. ← Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} carrots→ 17:27, 6 June 2016 (UTC)

Muhammad Ali

What do you mean it's not done in other bios? See Margaret Thatcher, Babe Ruth, John Lennon, and Albert Einstein for examples. It may not be universal (see Dwight Eisenhower), but if you're going to include a mention of his birth, you might as well also include a mention of his death. Esszet ( talk) 22:09, 6 June 2016 (UTC)

Birth and death dates are already in the lead. There's no need to mention it a second time. The article is mostly about his life, not his death. Also, I meant it's not common to do this, not that it never occurs. Stevie is the man! ^{Talk •

Louisville articles -> need updated pictures

Most of the photos on various Louisville area articles are from 2008 or earlier, many of them I took. I'm thinking about going around and taking some new photos for various Wikipedia pages. Just wanted to give you a heads up. Censusdata ( talk) —Preceding undated comment added 18:20, 9 June 2016‎

Disruptive reverting

I made a series of improvements to Louisville, Kentucky, explaining what I was doing in edit summaries. You reverted all of my changes with the utterly uninformative summary of Please discuss changes like this in talk. I am under no obligation to seek prior approval for my edits. However, you are obliged to explain yourself if you undo them. So, please explain what exactly you object to, with reference to the appropriate policies and guidelines. 83.51.157.166 ( talk) 13:42, 10 June 2016 (UTC)

You made a lot of major changes to a stable article. It is reasonable to need to discuss them in Talk:Louisville, Kentucky. I will not discuss them here. Stevie is the man! ^{Talk •
Work} 13:44, 10 June 2016 (UTC)

The changes are not major. You may discuss them on the talk page. Reverting without explanation is not acceptable. 83.51.157.166 ( talk) 13:46, 10 June 2016 (UTC)

Not acceptable to you, you mean. The changes are basically your opinion about a number of them, and that's why you need to explain them. Stevie is the man! ^{Talk •
Work} 13:49, 10 June 2016 (UTC)

OK, I have made changes to the changes that I think were overwrought. As for the changes in total, it would been better to discuss them in the article's talk beforehand, because it's a somewhat stable article, and the opinions of other editors should be taken into account. For instance, the changes about the pronunciations, if they were discussed, might have turned up useful citations to back up what was there. But I went ahead and left your updates for now, because what was there wasn't properly cited anyway. Also, what is "original research" to one person may be obvious straightforward calculation to another. These are things that can be discussed and hopefully resolved in talk. Stevie is the man! ^{Talk •

Kentucky courthouses

Below is a message I left at Acdixon's talk page. Nyttend ( talk) 17:33, 25 June 2016 (UTC)

Perhaps you remember User:W.marsh from years ago; before he retired in 2008, he was active in writing about Kentucky topics. One of the pages he created was a chart of courthouses statewide, an attempt to find an image of each courthouse that was acceptable under our licensing terms, but since he retired several years ago, I ultimately moved it to my userspace.

Two recent trips to the Purchase allowed me to get photos for previously unillustrated courthouses in Carlisle, Crittenden, and Livingston counties, and with that, we have photos for all 120 courthouses. Do you know of any solid sources that provide information about all 120 courthouses? I recently created List of county courthouses in Illinois, and it would be nice to do the same thing for Kentucky, especially as Kentucky, unlike Illinois, has photos for all of them. However, while I own books from scholarly publishers that discuss all the courthouses for Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois, I've never seen such a thing for Kentucky (the only such book I've encountered, from 1988, is self-published), so I don't know where/how I'd get good sourcing, especially with all of the new justice centers being built in the 1990s and 2000s that obviously wouldn't appear in the 1988 book.

FWIW

Thanks for your vandal patrolling. I suspect that this vandal was originally this vandal because of their penchant for editing similar articles with similar vandalism. I think we need to keep our eyes open for this one to reappear, I'm kind of wondering if this could even be a sockpuppet of some other previous trouble editors. Montanabw ^(talk) 21:36, 25 July 2016 (UTC)

Per [96] I think that we probably need to just do a WP:DFTT and wait for the talk page to be blocked too. Montanabw ^(talk) 19:48, 29 July 2016 (UTC)

Robert Fox

Thanks for keeping an eye on the Robert Fox article. I stumbled across it when doing research on other streetcar integration cases, and decided to fix it up. I am working my way through a copyvio rewrite and adding new info and refs so haven't done the last section yet, but will get to it in the next few days. ABF99 ( talk) 15:05, 28 July 2016 (UTC)

I think the copyvio and ref tags can probably be removed now. ABF99 ( talk) 15:21, 30 July 2016 (UTC)

@ ABF99: Thank you for your great work on this article. For future reference, you can always remove tags in good faith if you think you have satisfied their respective requests. Stevie is the man! ^{Talk •

Ali Marciano Superfight

Hi,

Just to say I appreciate your removal of my latest addition to Muhammad Ali's page on the Superfight with Rocky Marciano, however I have re-pasted the sentences with better links. I don't believe this to be trivial and Ali's feedback should be posted.

I left the 'removal of repeated words,' alone.

Please discuss with me before removing the addition. Please allow 1 day for me to respond as I may not see it immediately.

Thanks

Your edit to Stephen Foster

I am discouraged to find that you don't believe that supplying more information on the Stephen Foster Archives in a template format is something that makes the article better. There is a section in the article itself that describes the collection and including a template that links to other possible sources of information is entirely appropriate. Best Regards,

Barbara (WVS) ( talk) 21:04, 13 August 2016 (UTC)

@ Barbara (WVS): There are plenty of linkages to the archives in the article. The navigation template applies to the archives, not Stephen Foster. In other words, Stephen Foster doesn't appear in that template. There's a guideline somewhere about that. Stevie is the man! ^{Talk •

Edward William Cornelius Humphrey nominated for deletion

Please take a look at the possible deletion of the article on Edward William Cornelius Humphrey and read my comments. Mitzi.humphrey ( talk) 16:05, 12 August 2016 (UTC)

As per your suggestion that I should contact the admin who deleted the article on Edward Cornelius Humphrey, probably confusing it with the Edward William Cornelius Humphrey article, I will do that today. Mitzi.humphrey ( talk) 15:04, 14 August 2016 (UTC).... Now I have written another request section to the talk page of the deletor, who I had not realized had already replied to my earlier request section for his/her reversion of his/her deletion of Edward Cornelius Humphrey. It appears that I am partly responsible for the confusion, and so far the deletor has not complied with the request. Mitzi.humphrey ( talk) 16:59, 14 August 2016 (UTC)

Extensive corrections and reference additions have been made since the first deletion discussion for Edward William Cornelius Humphrey. Many of the changes answer questions about the notability of E.W.C. which arose during the original deletion discussion. Mitzi.humphrey ( talk) 15:04, 14 August 2016 (UTC)

Tech News: 2016-33

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Problems

Last week Tech News announced you will get a notification when you mention yourself the same way as if someone else had mentioned you. This caused some problems and will happen later instead. [107]
Creating and editing links to sections on other pages on the wiki now works again in the visual editor. [108]
For some users, cross-wiki notifications haven't been working properly. The count has been wrong when only cross-wiki notifications were present. The cross-wiki bundle has been showing only the names of wikis and not the actual notifications. This will be fixed soon. [109] [110]

Changes this week

The login session when you choose "Keep me logged in" will now last a year. Previously it was 30 days. This will happen on August 16. [111]
Some abuse filters will have to be updated during the week. This is because a bug will be fixed. [112]
In compact language links, two new kinds of languages will be shown in the shorter language list: Languages that are used in the article's text, and languages where the article has a badge like "featured article" or "good article". [113] [114]
The visual editor will be available by default for logged-out editors on Wikipedias that use the Arabic script. It is already default for logged-in editors. [115]
The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from August 16. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from August 17. It will be on all wikis from August 18 ( calendar).

Meetings

You can join the next meeting with the VisualEditor team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. The meeting will be on August 16 at 19:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Future changes

Starting the week of August 22 there will be three software deployment windows. They will be at 13:00, 18:00, and 23:00 UTC. This is to have more times when software of the wikis can be updated and make it easier for developers in different parts of the world. [116]

The norm and ccnorm functions have been updated to make it easier to write abuse filters. This also affects the TitleBlacklist extension. You don't have to transform "I" and "L" to "1", "O" to "0" and "S" to "5" anymore. [118]
The old pageview data in the "pagecounts-raw" and "pagecounts-all-sites" files is no longer being updated. You can find the new pageview data here. This happened on August 5. [119]

Problems

Some big image files could not be thumbnailed. This has now been fixed. [120]
When you moved a page over a redirect it would delete the redirect without saving it in the logs. This has now been fixed. [121]

How you add text after an edit conflict might work in a different way in the future. You can test the prototype. [124]

Jim Cornette World Championship Wrestling 1993

Hi, I am the one who made the World Championship Wrestling 1993 article on Jim Cornette. First I would like to say thank you for correcting my writing errors. About your template: It said there were no sources, but it did have one source, and I have now left five new sources. Also I realize it was very long, But I don't know how else I could have done it, since it needs to be described in detail. A long article isn't necessarily a bad thing. How long are you going to keep your template above it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Davidgoodheart ( talk • contribs) 00:30, 25 August 2016 (UTC)

Jim Cornette World Championship Wrestling 1993

Hi, Now that I have removed a fair amount of excessive information from Jim Cornette World Championship Wrestling 1993 article, I would like to remove the template about it. Please let me know what you think. Davidgoodheart 00:48, 25 August 2016 (UTC)

@ Davidgoodheart: I think the section is still too meticulous (I see more recent copyediting than content reduction), but I have also noticed other sections of the article are too, so I moved the tag to the top. Stevie is the man! ^{Talk •

Jamie Eads - Notability Issues

Steve, I am new to Wiki and want to understand how I can make my page (Jamie Eads) better. I believe that I meet the notability guidelines, but don't quite know how to make it all work. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Speady1 ( talk • contribs) 21:23, 30 August 2016 (UTC)

@ Speady1: First of all, creating and editing one's own article is generally frowned upon, per WP:COI. Beyond that, notability is generally established by weighty coverage by secondary, reliable sources, per WP:N. Are there any news/magazine articles for instance, that provide a significant discussion about Jamie Eads? At this point, I am unsure the article will pass an Articles for Deletion review.

1800s heading (vs 19th century)

Could you please explain why " this is incorrect - we do not present centuries in this manner"? Thanks. -- M2545 ( talk) 14:06, 18 September 2016 (UTC)

"1900s" for instance, can lead to confusion with the 1900s decade. At any rate, I have just adjusted the years to the correct centuries. Stevie is the man! ^{Talk •

Again, there is potential for confusion between that presentation and a decade. I have adjusted the years to fit into their correct centuries. Stevie is the man! ^{Talk •

Since we disagree at present, why not put the matter up for wider debate before continuing your edits? -- M2545 ( talk) 14:31, 18 September 2016 (UTC)

Also, the revised, accurate, heading could be "1800-1899" and subheadings "1800-1850" and so forth. -- M2545 ( talk) 14:34, 18 September 2016 (UTC)

There is no disagreement that I can tell. I already knew the fact that the 19th century ended 31 December 1900, and so forth. So, I have made adjustments to particular years to correct that. I see no hard reason to change it away from its established headings. "1800-1899" is an editorialized period rather than an actual named century. Stevie is the man! ^{Talk •

The original headings were changed by yourself, so I would ask you to not change them again until "more opinions are gathered". Please do gather more opinions, although this seems a bit ridiculous to pursue as the article is now correct. Stevie is the man! ^{Talk •
