RFA

This is (a little) progress!

Evidently not! With all the discussion and many more questions, RfA has become even worse than the US Congress, fer crissakes!

(Maybe it already was worse than the US Congress?)

What will make RfAs better and better:

RfA must be a secret ballot – voting editors must not be able to see and read other votes and comments.

And editors' usernames must not be visible to other participating editors.

---

There are currently 848 admins on the English Wikipedia, or just less than 1% of all active users (119,004).

RfA candidate S O N S% Ending (UTC) Time left Dups? Report RfB candidate S O N S% Ending (UTC) Time left Dups? Report No RfXs since 17:37, 25 December 2024 (UTC).—cyberbot ITalk to my owner:Online

In my opinion, WP:RFA should be more like WP:RFB has been in the past, a secret ballot to minimize the domino/pile-on effect of support and oppose !votes.

• no consensus

As is usual for a no-consensus outcome, editors can discover new arguments, strengthen old ones and try again in a few months to build consensus for a name change.

• Procedural close (statement only):

'''[[Wikipedia:Requested moves#Request all associated moves explicitly|Procedural close]].''' The target page is a non-redirect that possesses substantial content. It is therefore not suitable as a "new" title for this article until it is deleted or redirected, which would require a consensus to perform (see [[Wikipedia:Deletion process]]). When that has been achieved, this move request can be reopened and revisited. <small>([[Wikipedia:Requested moves/Closing instructions#Non-admin closure|nac]] by [[Wikipedia:Requested moves/Closing instructions#Closure by a page mover|page mover]])</small><!-- This is User template [[User:Paine Ellsworth/RMpmc]]. --> ~~~ <small>~~~~~</small>

Cool stuff

• c:Help:Gadget-Cat-a-lot

• |label5=­bd2412 – finally figured out how to lowercase a username in the {{To}} template! In the string at the beginning of this entry, there is an invisible soft hyphen between the equal sign and the "b" in bd2412. That makes the "b" the second character in the |label5= string, so it may be lowercase. Awesome!

• Duplicate section names: In section links, an underscore and number are appended to the end of duplicate section names. E.g. for three sections named "Example", the names (for section linking) will be "Example", "Example_2" and "Example_3". See Help:Section#Section linking.

• Change the color in the middle part of a sentence by use of the {{Color}} template ({{Color|red|the middle part of}}). And now we also have the {{Red}} template shortcut!

• You can strike out deleted material (<del> & </del>) and underline new material (<ins> & </ins>). Double underlining is also possible ({{Du|Double underlining}} . . .).

• ♥ ♥ ♥ – you can embed the color template! – ☆ ☆ ☆

• Found a workaround for Navbox problem of "listclass = hlist" when Navbar is overwidened. This was found in the {{Earth's location}} template. Just use listnstyle = line-height:1.3em; in the appropriate group. An example can be found in the {{Milky Way}} navbar.

• When an image-file redirect is categorized, the image will appear in the category. To turn the image into a link without the picture, use the behavior switch __NOGALLERY__ near the TOP of the edit screen. Note: the photo will still appear on preview, i.e., it will not disappear into a link-only until the cat page is Save page'd.

• mw:Typography refresh, holds the new typefaces used (17:40, 13 April 2014 (UTC))

• <pre style="font-size:95%;overflow:auto;"></pre> produces a window that will scroll to the right so that the entire page does not need to be scrolled to the right!

• {{Amherst edit-a-thon}}, usage of sig subst ({{subst:4~}}) or time-stamp subst ({{subst:5~}}) in templates and other substitutions! E.g., {{subst:user:pell}}

• Use {{diff|FULLPAGENAME|prev|DIFF NUMBER|(your label here)}} instead of FULLURL for diff links.

Diffs and oldids

btw Sardanaphalus, how did you come up with the above URL that takes us directly to my edit, when the normal bare URL and the {{diff}} template take us to your previous edit, which has the same oldid number? I have raised this at Wikipedia:Village pump (technical)/Archive 131#Diff number. – Paine 

Okay, I see how one gets that URL – just by using the diff from the history page; however, it still does not explain why the two edits, yours and mine, have the same oldid number of 625450950. If "next" is used in the Diff template rather than "prev", then it takes us to my most recent edit, but use of "prev" take us to your previous edit. That seems to be the only difference – the oldid number is the same for both edits. Curiouser and curiouser, as Alice might quip. – Paine 

Either one or both of the &diff= and &oldid= parameters may be specified. Both can take numeric values, but when both are used together, &diff= also recognises certain keywords.

If &diff= is used alone, a specific revision is displayed, with a diff at the top which compares that revision with the previous revision.

If &oldid= is used alone, a specific revision is displayed, without a diff at the top.

If &diff= and &oldid= are used together (they may be given in either order), there are four ways of doing it.

When both are numeric, those two revisions are compared and the revision displayed below the diff is that specified by the &diff= parameter. The two revisions need not be consecutive, but the later revision number needs to be in the &diff= with the earlier one in &oldid= - if they are exchanged, a backwards comparison is made.

When both parameters are used together, the &diff= parameter doesn't need to be a revision number: there are three permitted keywords - prev, next and cur.

&diff=prev displays the revision specified by &oldid=, and the diff shown at the top is a comparison of that revision with the previous revision.

&diff=next displays the revision after the one specified by &oldid=, and the diff shown at the top is a comparison of those two consecutive revisions.

&diff=cur displays the current version; the diff shown at the top is a comparison of the current version with that specified by &oldid= - it can be any revision from the page history.

Since

• https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template%3ATestcases_page_header&oldid=625450950

and

• https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template%3ATestcases_page_header&oldid=629082496

are consecutive revisions of the same page, and 629082496 is the current version, this means that the following are all equivalent:

• https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template%3ATestcases_page_header&diff=629082496
• https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template%3ATestcases_page_header&diff=629082496&oldid=625450950
• https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template%3ATestcases_page_header&diff=prev&oldid=629082496
• https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template%3ATestcases_page_header&diff=next&oldid=625450950
• https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template%3ATestcases_page_header&diff=cur&oldid=625450950

As soon as another edit is made to the page, that last one will become different from the others. --Redrose64 (talk) 23:46, 11 October 2014 (UTC)

Once again, Redrose64, you make a complicated subject understandable; thank you very much for that! It appears that the bottom line is that in the future, I just have to be more careful with the terms in the Diff template. Joys! – Paine  03:53, 12 October 2014 (UTC)

If you're using the {{diff}} template, this takes four parameters. The first one is the page name; the second and third correspond with the &diff= and &oldid= parameters as described above, except that they need to appear in that order; and the fourth is the link text. So the last four examples given above become

• {{diff|Template:Testcases page header|629082496|625450950|Example 2}} → Example 2
• {{diff|Template:Testcases page header|prev|629082496|Example 3}} → Example 3
• {{diff|Template:Testcases page header|next|625450950|Example 4}} → Example 4
• {{diff|Template:Testcases page header|cur|625450950|Example 5}} → Example 5

--Redrose64 (talk) 11:15, 12 October 2014 (UTC)

Thank you very much! – Paine  10:20, 13 October 2014 (UTC)

User:Paine Ellsworth/Status – My Status

My present status = (no longer used)

My routine look-afters

• Shirley Temple Black REDIRECT, keep cats intact

• Jackdaw, Ardrey addition dropped, the Lorenz parts were kept and compacted

• {{National personifications}}, many changes since I improved it

• Will to power, lede improvements

• Common Sense (pamphlet)#Impact, wrote new section

• Doppler, much improved Dab page with a Wikisearch link in Misc. section

• Veterans Administration, converted Redirect into Dab page— Reverted

Interesting bugs

• T295553, hide [ reply ] links; see mw:Talk:Talk pages project/Replying#A [ reply ] isn't always warranted or needed

• T9304, until this was fixed there could be no links on rcats unless prefixed by "w:", an interwiki prefix and one nasty, though effective, bandaid.

• T13700, cascaded protected pages – resolved WONTFIX

• T16281, Bad Image list – This one's a no-go.

• T16323, Text on Redirects— left a note about where this is presently headed
  • See T44642 below

• T26313 on removing "Mark as Minor" from prefs (I like for the Minor edit box on Edit pages to be auto-checked) left a note of my dismay and that the Javascript has stopped working – I got the Javascript to work, see User:Paine Ellsworth/vector.js & User:Paine Ellsworth/vector.css

World's most populous urban areas

Ref.: Template:World's most populous urban areas
This is my most recent project to defeat Redirects that plague the template. See above. Left off at Hyderabad Hong Kong Bangalore Bogotá São Paulo Istanbul. (Mumbai has no coords!) (It's taking awhile, because I'm making other improvements to the articles as I see them needed, e.g. hatnotes to TOP, and converting dec coordinates to dms, and so on.) – Paine Ellsworth ^CLIMAX! 02:00, 19 November 2009 (UTC) –  Done
