Thanks

Thank you for the "Welcome" message LogX! But, are you sure? --Divineale (talk) 18:21, 20 November 2013 (UTC)

Oops! That was my fault. Thanks for letting me know the difference. --    L o g  X   18:23, 20 November 2013 (UTC)`

Ernestine Huckleby speedy deletion tag

Log X, I believe that the life of Ernestine Huckleby is historically relevant. She was a member of a family who suffered a methylmercury food chain poisoning which was prominently featured in the news in 1970, her sister brought a case against the federal government for failure to warn, and Ernestine herself was the subject of a scientifically relevant autopsy which determined that biotransformation of methylmercury can take place in the body trapping inorganic mercury in the brain. It's difficult to conceive a more historically relevant modern life. I don't see how it can be considered as advertising. - Mary Hammond — Precedingunsigned comment added by Mary Hammond (talk •contribs) 18:24, 20 November 2013 (UTC)

Okay, i am letting the others to consider the article for reviewing. I am not aware on that topic though! --    L o g  X   18:27, 20 November 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Shraddha_Kapoor/GA4

Did you really not believe this? I am suspecting that User:Smauritius and User:Aisha Sequeira may in fact be the same person,WP:sockpuppet style. Can you help resolve this, because Aisha Sequeira is a new user doing multiple reviews? Very suspicious.BollyJeff | talk 19:31, 20 November 2013 (UTC)

I have reported that. Please have a look at here. --   L o g  X   19:32, 20 November 2013 (UTC)

Wow, you are fast. By the time I was finished typing this, it was done already. Aisha Sequeira has also signed up for Talk:Shahrukh Khan/GA1, which they are certainly not qualified for. Something should be done about that too. BTW, the nominator is an editor that is blocked. Could they be a part of all this too? BollyJeff | talk 19:36, 20 November 2013 (UTC)

Then, raise an issue in the investigation page and we have to wait until the investigation gets over. Both the users have contributed on the bollywood actors page. That's why i doubted. --    L o g  X   19:43, 20 November 2013 (UTC)

A R Lord Elementary

Hi, I worked so hard to do the page for our public school, A. R. Lord Elementary. Based it on the same format as a neighbouring public school, Hastings Community School. In the public school system in Vancouver. The school is completely non profit. Why would all my work be deleted? I don't understand. It is simply for reference for families to find the public school in the neighbourhood. Please let me know what I am doing wrong.

Thank you.

respectfully,

Linda in the Garden — Preceding unsigned comment added by Linda in the Garden (talk • contribs) 21:45, 20 November 2013 (UTC)

Now the page has been redirected. If you want to create your school an article, please read First article and follow the guidelines there. Thanks. --    L o g  X   21:51, 20 November 2013 (UTC)

VisualEditor newsletter for November 2013

Since the last newsletter, the VisualEditor team has worked on some feature changes, major infrastructure improvements to make the system more stable, dependable and extensible, some minor toolbar improvements, and fixing bugs.

A new form parsing library for language characters in Parsoid caused the corruption of pages containing diacritics for about an hour two weeks ago. Relatively few pages at the English Wikipedia were affected, but this created immediate problems at some other Wikipedias, sometimes affecting several dozen pages. The development teams for Parsoid and VisualEditor apologize for the serious disruption and thank the people who reported this emergency at Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback and on the public IRC channel, #mediawiki-visualeditor.

There have been dozens of changes since the last newsletter. Here are some of the highlights:

• Accidental deletion of infoboxes and other items: You now need to press the Delete or ← Backspace keytwice to delete a template, reference or image. The first time, the item becomes selected, and the second time, it is removed. The need to press the delete key twice should make it more obvious what you are doing and help avoid accidental removals of infoboxes and similar (bug 55336).
• Switch from VisualEditor to the wikitext editor: A new feature lets you make a direct, one-way editing interface change, which will preserve your changes without needing to save the page and re-open it in the wikitext editor (bug 50687). It is available in a new menu in the action buttons by the Cancel button (where the "Page Settings" button used to be). Note that this new feature is not currently working in Firefox.
• Categories and Languages are also now directly available in that menu. The category suggestions drop-down was appearing in the wrong place rather than below its input box, which is now fixed. An incompatibility between VisualEditor and the deployed Parsoid service that prevented editing categories and language links was fixed.
• File:, Help: and Category: namespaces: VisualEditor was enabled for these namespaces the on all wikis (bug 55968), the Portal: and Viquiprojecte: namespaces on the Catalan Wikipedia (bug 56000), and the Portal: and Book: namespaces on the English Wikipedia (bug 56001).
• Media item resizing: We improved how files are viewed in a few ways. First, inline media items can now be resized in the same way that has been possible with block ones (like thumbnails) before. When resizing a media item, you can see a live preview of how it will look as you drag it (bug 54298). While you are dragging an image to resize it, we now show a label with the current dimensions (bug 54297). Once you have resized it, we fetch a new, higher resolution image for the media item if necessary (bug 55697). Manual setting of media item sizes in their dialog is nearly complete and should be available next week. If you hold down the ⇧ Shift key whilst resizing an image, it will now snap to a 10 pixel grid instead of the normal free-hand sizing. The media item resize label now is centered while resizing regardless of which tool you use to resize it.
• Undo and redo: A number of improvements were made to the transactions system which make undoing and redoing more reliable during real-time collaboration (bug 53224).
• Save dialogue: The save page was re-written to use the same code as all other dialogs (bug 48566), and in the process fixed a number of issues. The save dialog is re-accessible if it loses focus (bug 50722), or if you review a null edit (bug 53313); its checkboxes for minor edit, watch the page, and flagged revisions options now layout much more cleanly (bug 52175), and the tab order of the buttons is now closer to what users will expect (bug 51918). There was a bug in the save dialog that caused it to crash if there was an error in loading the page from Parsoid, which is now fixed.
• Links to other articles or pages sometimes sent people to invalid pages. VisualEditor now keeps track of the context in which you loaded the page, which lets us fix up links in document to point to the correct place regardless of what entry point you launched the editor from—so the content of pages loaded through /wiki/Foobar?veaction=edit and /w/index.php?title=Foobar&veaction=editboth now have text links that work if triggered (bug 48915).
• Toolbar links: A bug that caused the toolbar's menus to get shorter or even blank when scrolled down the page in Firefox is now fixed (bug 55343).
• Numbered external links: VisualEditor now supports Parsoid's changed representation of numbered external links (bug 53505).
• Removed empty templates: We also fixed an issue that meant that completely empty templates became impossible to interact with inside VisualEditor, as they didn't show up (bug 55810).
• Mathematics formulae: If you would like to try the experimental LaTeX mathematics tool in VisualEditor, you will need to opt-in to Beta Features. This is currently available on Meta-wiki, Wikimedia Commons, and Mediawiki.org. It will be available on all other Wikimedia sites on 21 November.
• Browser testing support: If you are interested in technical details, the browser tests were expanded to cover some basic cursor operations, which uncovered an issue in our testing framework that doesn't work with cursoring in Firefox; the Chrome tests continue to fail due to a bug with the welcome message for that part of the testing framework.
• Load time: VisualEditor now uses content language when fetching Wikipedia:TemplateData information, so reducing bandwidth use, and users on multi-language or multi-script wikis now get TemplateData hinting for templates as they would expect (bug 50888).
• Reuse of VisualEditor: Work on spinning out the user experience (UX) framework from VisualEditor into oojs-ui, which lets other teams at Wikimedia (like Flow) and gadget authors re-use VisualEditor UX components, is now complete and is being moved to a shared code repository.
• Support for private wikis: If you maintain a private wiki at home or at work, VisualEditor now supports editing of private wikis, by forwarding the Cookie: HTTP header to Parsoid ($wgVisualEditorParsoidForwardCookies set to true) (bug 44483). (Most private wikis will also need to install Parsoid and node.js, as VisualEditor requires them.)

Looking ahead:

• VisualEditor will be released to some of the smaller Wikipedias on 02 December 2013. If you are active at one or more smaller Wikipedias where VisualEditor is not yet generally available, please see the list atVisualEditor/Rollouts.
• Public office hours on IRC to discuss VisualEditor with Product Manager James Forrester will be held on Monday, 2 December, at1900 UTC and on Tuesday, 3 December, at0100 UTC. Bring your questions. Logs will be posted on Meta after each office hour completes.
• In terms of feature improvements, one of the major infrastructure projects affects how inserting characters works, both using your computer's built-in Unicode input systems and through a planned character inserter tool for VisualEditor. The forthcoming rich copying and pasting feature was extended and greater testing is currently being done. Work continues to support the improvedreference dialog to quickly add citations based on local templates.

If you have questions or suggestions for future improvements, or if you encounter problems, please let everyone know by posting a note atWikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback. Thank you! Whatamidoing (WMF) 22:12, 20 November 2013 (UTC)

Email

One thing I know is that I disabled Wiki from emailing me about notifications. Maybe it also prevents users from emailing me? But u can email me at kailash29792@yahoo.com (while signing mail, use ur Wiki username rather than ur real name so I can identify)---- Kailash29792 (talk) 16:14, 21 November 2013 (UTC)

Maybe, But enable the feature man. That's how others can mail you if they want to talk about something more than editing. I have mailed you. You can reply me there. --    L o g  X   16:16, 21 November 2013 (UTC)

Sri Divya

I heard the same news about her "death" from my colleagues yesterday, but no media site gave any update about this information. Guess I'll check myself. ---- Kailash29792 (talk) 16:20, 21 November 2013 (UTC)

Yeah, i too have performed many searches. But, none is reliable. Every searches are fan sites and yahoo answer sites. It is definitely a rumour! --    L o g  X   16:23, 21 November 2013 (UTC)

Race picou

I've declined your speedy because none of the reasons on that template applied. It wasn't a redir to itself, or to a deleted or nominated page. I will admit that I can't see the point of it and would suggest it might be a 'recent improbable redir' (which could have been your intention as Twinkle looks different somehow). Peridon (talk) 21:17, 21 November 2013 (UTC)

Okay. Sorry for that. What does Race picou really means? Is it needed to redirect Godzilla? --    L o g  X   21:18, 21 November 2013 (UTC)

Ah, now - I've Googled it (or rather him) and deleted it as an attack page. It seems to be a person's name, and linking it with Godzilla gives one other hit. That suggests to me very strongly someone being nasty to someone else. (I tend to think in a rather corkscrew way...)Peridon (talk) 21:35, 21 November 2013 (UTC)

You got it! --    L o g  X   21:37, 21 November 2013 (UTC)

Yemen

Yes it was actually me who first expanded the section but i noticed that it was poorly sourced. --يوسف حسين (talk) 21:17, 21 November 2013 (UTC)

But, your recent contributions doesn't state that you have expanded them. Please take the issue to the talk page if you really need to cut them down. --    L o g  X   21:24, 21 November 2013 (UTC)

Hello again, I edited the page and planning to do more. The Ancient history section was leaning toward recent events as i understood so i tried to fix that. I will expand the section and rest of the article soon, today hopefully. --يوسف حسين (talk) 05:25, 22 November 2013 (UTC)

First of all Welcome to Wikipedia!! I don't think these reference are enough for the article to stay in Wikipedia. The references werepoorly sourced and it is really soon for the actor. --    L o g  X   21:42, 21 November 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Ed Gonzalez

Hello LogX. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Ed Gonzalez, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: The article makes a credible assertion of importance or significance, sufficient to pass A7. Thank you. — Malik Shabazz ^Talk/_Stalk 03:38, 22 November 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: ՍՈՒԼՖԻԴԱՅԻՆ ԱՊԱՐՆԵՐԻ ՕՔՍԻԴԱՑՈՒՄԸ

Hello LogX. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of ՍՈՒԼՖԻԴԱՅԻՆ ԱՊԱՐՆԵՐԻ ՕՔՍԻԴԱՑՈՒՄԸ, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: This is neither G1 nor G2 -- this is an article in the Armenian language, and G1 does not cover sensible material not in english. Thank you. —Darkwind (talk) 20:08, 22 November 2013 (UTC)

Similarly, it does not cover articles that do indicate the topic even if they do not provide as much information as an encyclopedia article ought to have. , like Gongjindan -- it's clearly a Chinese herbal medicine, but the article needs expansion to show exactly which in a clearer manner.As reviewing administrator, I did not delete it, but requested the ed. to give additional information. A article like "John is a boy in my class" is G1, because we have no clue who John may be, but "John Jones is a boy in my class at Whatever High School" is not A1, and would by removed by A7.

And Severity 1 Incident Management is not a test page. A test page is something like "This is my first article" or "ABCDEF". It is not informative though, and I listed it for WP:PROD.

All this is explained in detail in the guidelines WP:CSD, and the policy WP:Deletion Process Please read both of them before you make further listings for deletion. The Speedy criteria are applied narrowly--if it doesn't fit speedy, there's Prod or AfD. DGG ( talk ) 21:04, 22 November 2013 (UTC)

I got it! Thanks to you both! --    L o g  X   21:24, 22 November 2013 (UTC)
