Problems

  • The content translation tool did not work for many articles for a little while. This was because of a bug. [4]
  • Some things will not work for about a minute on 5 May. This will happen around 06:00 UTC. This will affect the content translation tool and notifications among other things. This is because of an upgrade to avoid crashes. [5]

Changes later this week

  • Reference Previews will become a default feature on a number of wikis on 5 May. This is later than planned because of some changes. You can use it without using Page Previews if you want to. The earlier plan was to have the preference to use both or none. [6][7]
  • Recurrent item The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 4 May. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 5 May. It will be on all wikis from 6 May (calendar).

Future changes

  • Advanced item The CSS classes .error, .warning and .success do not work for mobile readers if they have not been specifically defined on your wiki. From June they will not work for desktop readers. This can affect gadgets and templates. The classes can be defined in MediaWiki:Common.css or template styles instead. [8]

Your draft article, User:JPxG/Kimball Island[edit]

Hello, JPxG. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Kimball Island".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia! —pythoncoder (talk | contribs) 18:01, 8 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Pythoncoder: I have a large number of userspace pages, and am unaware of any POG requiring me to edit them every six months. This was neither a draft nor an AfC submission; is there a reason you tagged it as G13? jp×g 19:29, 8 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Given that the page is deleted now, I can't speak to the specific reasons why I nominated it, but if you go to WP:REFUND/G13 and request its undeletion, I'll leave it alone. Sorry about that. —pythoncoder (talk | contribs) 22:05, 8 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
If you find yourself G13-tagging content in other people's userspace, you need to be more cautious about G13s. Vaticidalprophet 22:07, 8 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Cite details order[edit]

At the Extremely online article, I tweaked the citation template parameters' order, and you might wonder why. It's to make them maximally useful and parseable for editors (since it has no effect on display for readers). I front-loaded the key human-readable information (title, author, date, publication – the "citation proper" if you will); then grouped all link-related information into a cluster, |url-status= next to |url= because the former relates only to the latter, and |archive-url= and |archive-date= next because they only relate to each other and, as a pair, to the |url=; and concluded with |access-date= which is best to always be last and thus easy to find, because it tells editors the last time any verification was done with the source and the claims purportedly drawn from it (the latter have a tendency to drift as other editors mess about with the content).  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  21:08, 12 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@SMcCandlish: I've had a lot of questions over what ordering to use in citation templates. Thanks for posting this! Do you know if there's a comprehensive guide (or, better yet, a script) I can use? to avoid doing it badly in the future? jp×g 20:10, 7 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
No, there's no guide. There's a decade-long camp of control-freaks with a death-grip on the content of WP:CITE and anything relating to it, who are staunchly opposed to any requirements/advice that could be seen as constraining editors in any way when it comes to "citation style", as broadly interpreted as possible. It's a massive butt-pain for the entire project, but unlikely to ever be fixed in my lifetime. (We really should have a single, consistent citation style, like every other major publisher in the world ...). I'm not aware of any cleanup scripts, either. I just make heavy use of a text editor with regex capabilities, and I apply the kind of logic I laid out above: core citation info, then link stuff (including alternatives like DOI and other IDs), with access-date last for easy checking. Despite the control freaking at the guidleine page, I don't think I've been reverted on param. order cleanup, in actual articles, more than twice in 15+ years here, because the cleanup actually makes sense (and per WP:MEATBOT I do at least one more substantive thing, even if it's just fixing some typos, when doing said cleanup).  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  04:38, 11 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Clerking at ANI[edit]

Please stop clerking threads at ANI. You're archiving them too quickly. Just because someone was blocked does not mean that it's time to close a thread, and just because the thread was closed does not mean it's time to archive it. If you insta-close threads and shuffle them somewhere else, it's a real pain for me to find them and look into socking concerns. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 23:32, 1 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@NinjaRobotPirate: My apologies. I had been doing it to clear out old threads, per a conversation with @Oshwah: and I guess I got a little carried away. Perhaps of note, though: there's an AN/I thread about threads not being archived properly by the bot (i.e. ones that haven't been edited in three days or more). I assume these are fine to archive manually or with a userscript? jp×g 21:19, 15 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I see you've chosen to ignore my request, and you're still archiving threads whose last post are less than 24 hours old, as in this edit. Look, we don't actually need self-appointed clerks to go through threads and immediately manually archive them. This is counterproductive for the reasons that I just explained, and it goes against the instructions on the page itself, which say not to archive threads less than 24 hours old. I don't understand why I have to keep repeating myself and asking people to stop doing this. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 01:19, 16 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@NinjaRobotPirate: I actually have no idea how the hell that one happened (probably because the section had been {{atop}}ped two days prior). That one and §Francis Schonken (not edited at all in five days) have been the only sections I've archived since then. At any rate, though, sure, I will cut it out. jp×g 02:08, 16 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Tagging user talk pages for speedy deletion[edit]

@WQUlrich: I just sweep through Wikipedia:Database_reports/Transclusions_of_non-existent_templates every once in a while (most of them are either invoked by template test-case pages or very old userspace sandbice. I make sure to leave talk page messages if I de-link from someone's userspace, though, since at least some of them are being worked on. At any rate, if it's a work in progress I certainly will not have any issue with you transcluding a redlinked template (and I wish you luck with the page). Cheers! jp×g 20:02, 17 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It may be deleted altogether; I haven't even seen what it's supposed to link to yet. I must admit, I didn't know that sort of thing shows up on a report, especially for something that hasn't been posted. Of course, I do get edits from bots occasionally, so I guess they don't distinguish. Anyway, thank you for your contributions! (sandbice?) WQUlrich (talk) 20:13, 17 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Tagging stale drafts[edit]

Hello, JPxG,

If you are going to be regularly tagging stale drafts for CSD G13, please know that we go by UTC time, not U.S. time (I'm not sure where you are located). So, if you are in most of the U.S., stale drafts from Nov. 17th last edited at 2 pm would be eligible for deletion on May 17 at 3 pm because there is a one hour time difference in the U.S. between daylight savings time and standard time. But it helps a lot if you have a clock showing UTC time and these local time changes don't affect listings like User:SDZeroBot/G13 soon which goes by UTC time. Thanks for your work! Liz Read! Talk! 21:34, 17 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Liz: I've got my preferences set to display timestamps as local time, which I figure is consistent across the board (it shows all diffs, timestamp signatures, etc the same way that I can tell). So, I would have figured it'd be applying the offsets properly. Well, maybe it is, and I've just never had to deal with this particular edge case before. At any rate: if something shows up to me as last edited on November 17 at 10:30, are you saying I should just hold off until, say, 11:30 to G13 it? jp×g 21:43, 17 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Parenthetically, I figured out how to make my table render the UTC timestamps and I think I might understand what you're talking about now (the UTC timestamp says it was created six months and a couple minutes ago, whereas the timestamp in the article history says six months and an hour and a couple minutes). Absolutely bizarre, but true, I guess. jp×g 21:58, 17 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Active Wikipedia database reports[edit]

Hi, I see that you have made a number of edits like this - there's no point doing that, because it's a report produced by a bot and your edit will be discarded the next time that the bot runs - which will be in 20 hours time at approximately 06:01, 19 May 2021 (UTC). --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 10:03, 18 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Putting the category at the top won't make any difference, the bot rebuilds the whole page and ignores whatever is already there. This is a useful counter-vandalism measure, since it ensures that no damage lasts any longer than the interval between bot runs. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 20:49, 18 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm. Fascinating. I've come to the same conclusion (another page where I'd added a disambig link to a similarly oriented maintenance cat got overwritten as well). One idea that springs to mind is whether it's possible to change the default text in the bot's template (if it even matters). Another is to just leave it as-is for a month or so, and then see how many pages are still in the category at the end of the month, and all of the ones that are get tagged as inactive (for example, Wikipedia:Database_reports/Deaths_from_the_COVID-19_pandemic claims to be updated every day, and is listed as such at WP:DBR, but cuts off in 2020-08 for some reason). jp×g 23:58, 18 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

G13 stale drafts[edit]

Hello, JPxG,

I noticed that you "rescued" dozens of stale drafts from CSD G13 deletion because you deemed them salvageable. Before this becomes a daily activity of yours, please ask yourself whether you will spend the time to fix up all of these drafts and make them acceptable to the AFC reviewing crew. Because if you do not plan on working on them yourself, they will just sit for another six months and then be deleted in November 2021. There are very, very few editors who will go in to Draft space and work on other editors' drafts to improve them to the point where they are transferred into the main space of the project. It is very rare. And these are drafts that have been abandoned by the people most interested in their subjects, the editors who created them in the first place.

So, in the future, please just rescue drafts that you actually decide that you will spend your time on Wikipedia working on. Otherwise, it's just kind of delaying the inevitable and kicking the can down the road. But be assured that should the page creator ever decide to return to editing on Wikipedia and want to work on their drafts, they are restored to them probably 99.99% of the time if they have been deleted for simply being stale. So, they are always recoverable. I am just doubting that you want to spend your limited editing time on Wikipedia working on other editors' rejected drafts. Thanks for caring though. Liz Read!

On 31 May 2021, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Cheugy, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the original video about the slang term "cheugy" didn't go "TikTok viral", but two months later, a New York Times article about the video did? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Cheugy. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Cheugy), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
