Thanks

Thanks: yes, I was through with the flood flag -- sorry about that. --Auntof6 (talk) 18:20, 8 November 2018 (UTC)

No worries, just didn't want you to not realize when you came back and do a bunch of things and then be ooops. -DJSasso (talk) 19:18, 8 November 2018 (UTC)

Golf-ben10

เนื่องจากฉันไม่เข้าใจภาษาอังกฤษ หากคุณลบหน้าของฉัน ฉันขอข้อมูลหน้าของฉันคืนได้หรือไม่ ฉันขอ souce คืน เพราะมีข้อมูลสำคัญจำนวนมาก ที่ไม่สามารถเพิ่มลงใน Wikipedia ได้ Golf-ben10, BRPever, DJSasso(~~~~).

I think, if there is no policy against it, we should put the deleted source in a pastebin so that Golf-ben10 doesn't completely lose their work, on the condition that they not recreate it. Vermont (talk) 16:38, 11 November 2018 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) I don't think there is a policy, but, for what it's worth, in past situations like this we have offered to email the user a copy of the text, but declined to restore the page. --Auntof6 (talk) 19:38, 11 November 2018 (UTC)

ได้โปรดคืนข้อมูลในแก่ฉัน เพราะมันเป็นข้อมูลที่สำคัญ และเป็นประโยชน์ ฉันเพียงแค่ต้องการ Souce เท่านั้น เพื่อใช้เป็นแหล่งข้อมูลในการแก้ไขหน้าอื่นๆต่อไปในอนาคต Golf-ben10 (talk)

I could email you the source if you setup an email with your account. Vermont (talk) 14:12, 12 November 2018 (UTC)

ฉันตั้งค่า email แล้ว Vermont กรุณาส่งให้ฉันด้วย Golf-ben10 (talk)

I probably wouldn't have since its clearly being used to circumvent blocks on en.wiki but there is no policy against it, I just wasn't around on the long weekend to do it. -DJSasso (talk) 11:34, 13 November 2018 (UTC)

Language tabs

I found your language tab while reading over a page on meta. I've added it to both my interface here and on enWP. This is a VERY fine piece of work! I immediately fell in love with it. Intentionally or not, you may have found a way to make both projects very accessible. Even as an interface update on both projects. I'd love to see you offer it up as a gadget, either way... Operator873^talkconnect 22:28, 21 November 2018 (UTC)

@Operator873: Yeah I have been using this for a very long time. I think I even had something similar to this for a few years before this version. The one thing to be aware of is that it works on article title so sometimes it will show you the wrong article if they are named differently on en.wiki but that isn't the case too often and if it is, I just hit back and click on the interwiki. -DJSasso (talk) 12:32, 22 November 2018 (UTC)

Hey there! I tinkered with the script until I was perplexed and befuddled. As a last ditch effort, I asked for help on IRC. Krenair answered my call for help and, in short order, got the script working. I only changed the positioning of the tab (to the left side vs right side) and renamed it to "EnWiki" or "Simple English," with respect to the project. I wanted to let you know so that you could find both files in my userspace here and on enwiki and copy them back to your userspace. Operator873^talkconnect 22:19, 26 November 2018 (UTC)

@Operator873: Haha figured you might be the reason I was getting pinged about my tabs suddenly on en.wiki. Or else its one crazy coincidence you all both found it at the same time. -DJSasso (talk) 17:14, 27 November 2018 (UTC)

{{Dts}}

Can you take a look? It's seemingly the cause of a LOT of stripped SPAN's suggesting it's generating one more span than it should be somewhere? ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 14:27, 22 November 2018 (UTC)

I will look, I already switched it over to using a module, so unless you are using a realtime list it may already be fixed. -DJSasso (talk) 14:53, 22 November 2018 (UTC)

how was your Thanksgiving 2018

Hey Djsasso: Did you have a happy Thanksgiving? What did you do for Thanksgiving? Angela Maureen (talk) 23:58, 23 November 2018 (UTC)

Repairs...

Generally I try to change as little as possible, when making a repair, if you are able to build on that , good. BTW you might want to to look over some of my recent efforts.. There are some problem templates I can't find stable fixes for.ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 21:10, 26 November 2018 (UTC)

Yup that is understandable. Don't mind me if I come behind you. Its just usually me making sure all the templates that touch a template are updated. I have been on a year or so long project to try and get our templates fixed up. People used to just bring over the main one and not any of the ones that were called by it so things didn't always work right. So sometimes when I see someone edit a template I might end up importing anything that it touches. Some of our templates are a decade out of date. -DJSasso (talk) 17:09, 27 November 2018 (UTC)

Replacing center on tables..

https://simple.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Sh%C5%8Dwa_period&type=revision&diff=6325980&oldid=6325977

How do I make a request for a CSS class to be added to Simple English wikipedi so I can just do class="center-float" to replace the center tag?

I'd also like to request that the styles I used in

• {{Del_block}} to replace STRIKE and S which only work on SPAN based elements.
• {{Monospaced block}} to replace TT, and related in certain instances...

be considered for generalisation into classes that could be used across the wiki. ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 11:22, 28 November 2018 (UTC)

Because we have so few people who like to play with code on this wiki we just refresh our CSS to match whatever en.wiki has most of the time. Sometimes we get a bit behind but in general we have whatever en.wiki has and then only things that are super specific to our wiki. I can try to see how we can do it. I will have to get back to you. -DJSasso (talk) 11:42, 28 November 2018 (UTC)

To be fair the code on those , should also be subject to an RFC back at English Wikipedia..ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 12:02, 28 November 2018 (UTC)

CSS note...

https://simple.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=FIBA_Basketball_World_Cup&diff=prev&oldid=6326033

You can replace bgcolor=#xxxxxx with a "background: #xxxxxx" style BTW. which was what I've done sometimes when repairing other concerns. ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 14:42, 28 November 2018 (UTC)

Documentation is "junk" for {{Infobox generic}}

As per heading ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 19:19, 28 November 2018 (UTC)

Looks like that was a long extinct template, have replaced the only two uses and removed. -DJSasso (talk) 13:43, 29 November 2018 (UTC)

FYI

Please be careful when importing templates. Your update to {{Greek alphabet sidebar}} broke the images on all of the pages. I just finished fixing those. Nunabas (talk) 16:17, 29 November 2018 (UTC)

Was aware, was leaving them that way on purpose as part of some other changes to do all at once. But thanks for fixing them. -DJSasso (talk) 17:04, 29 November 2018 (UTC)

JRS

Basically any sock that includes "Smith" in it or writes about a "Smith" is JaySmith2018. They pretend to be new users, and their userpage commonly includes some variation of,"I also occasionally revert vandalism and spam". See User:Vermont/Reports/JRS for a list of socks. Thanks, Vermont (talk) 20:40, 29 November 2018 (UTC)

Yeah no I realize that, I think I just didn't notice the smith yesterday. Was too early in the morning I think. -DJSasso (talk) 11:44, 30 November 2018 (UTC)

Ah, okay. Yeah sometimes they can be hard to notice. I remember around 1-2 weeks ago they came under the persona of a dog, and I didn't identify it as them for a few days. Vermont (talk) 12:32, 30 November 2018 (UTC)

Template:Col-end

Stray DIV, can you unprotect this template so a repair can be made? ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 12:30, 3 December 2018 (UTC)

I believe that div is there to close the one in Template:div col but yeah I can unprotect it. -DJSasso (talk) 12:59, 3 December 2018 (UTC)

more common names

Please, can you move Qoppa to Koppa (letter) according to w:en:Koppa (letter) at en-wiki? Unicode itself says Koppa, see official pdf, article too primarily says Koppa in itself. According to Wikipedia:Follow English Wikipedia: https://simple.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Nikolai_Yezhov&type=revision&diff=6337433&oldid=6337421 Please make space to page move of Qoppa into Koppa according to article content and then move Qoppa to Koppa to match spelling with w:en:Koppa (letter). Unicode itself says Koppa, see official pdf, article too primarily says Koppa in itself in BOTH enwiki and simplewiki. 54.82.127.171 (talk) 14:34, 7 December 2018 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Follow English Wikipedia does not apply to article titles. Those can very much differ here. That guidelines is about guidelines. If the policy doesn't exist here we make en's policy a guideline here. I am unaware of a policy that requires us to move that article. I will however look into moving it. -DJSasso (talk) 18:04, 7 December 2018 (UTC)

Regardless of it all, Unicode calls this letter Koppa and not Qoppa. 54.82.127.171 (talk) 18:39, 7 December 2018 (UTC)

Right, but we are also not Unicode. -DJSasso (talk) 18:40, 7 December 2018 (UTC)

Pagemoves

You moved letters from alpha to omega, according to plain English Wikipedia, but plain English template links additional letters to following English pages:

• w:en:Digamma
• w:en:Stigma (letter)
• w:en:Heta
• w:en:San (letter)
• w:en:Koppa (letter)
• w:en:Sampi
• w:en:Sho (letter)

Can you assign them same names here? 54.82.127.171 (talk) 19:32, 7 December 2018 (UTC)

Unicode naming

I consider letter names deviating from Unicode ones as multivariant/confusing. All glyphs being proper Greek letters are under *GREEK*LETTER* naming wildcard and are only bearing one name variant per letter. I mean them all from https://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U0370.pdf - their unique names sum up to 32 letters. Collation is according to: http://www.unicode.org/Public/UCA/latest/allkeys.txt 54.74.166.184 (talk) 16:08, 7 December 2018 (UTC)

update of attribution template

For what particular reason are you updating the attribution template on certain Wikipedia articles? Angela Maureen (talk) 16:35, 12 December 2018 (UTC)

So that the English one matches the other languages in a more uniform way. -DJSasso (talk) 16:39, 12 December 2018 (UTC)

Movies by language

Are you taking into account that the category can just be removed if the language is specified in an infobox? --Auntof6 (talk) 13:46, 13 December 2018 (UTC)

Same for the year category, although I know that's not what you're working on. --Auntof6 (talk) 13:47, 13 December 2018 (UTC)

At this point no, because the code in the infobox takes that into account. Well the new code will once I figure out why it wouldn't place some categories on the pages. Either way having both isn't an issue as the system knows to ignore one anyway and sometimes you might want to manually have one on for alphabetizing reasons. -DJSasso (talk) 13:49, 13 December 2018 (UTC)

But I will probably make a pass checking for that after the initial pass anyway. -DJSasso (talk) 13:50, 13 December 2018 (UTC)
