VacationValet Channel ref. account

As far as I know i'm the only one with access to this account, additionally I was under the impression that I was well within the posting policies of wikipedia/media. The quagmire of registration with all entities and ultimately being on target with every instance of registration is really quite impossible. Could you please point out the mistake, if any, I've made in posting or registration; after my review, I found none. I'm completely agreeable to making any necessary changes or corrections with regards to my account. Thank you, James(VacationValet Channel); and as a foot note I need to correct it to it's further extrapolation of (The VacationValet Channel, so as to abbreviate to TV2C.com); again another registration process. Thanks, again — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.151.46.222 (talk) 16:35, 4 February 2013 (UTC)

What I'm saying is that the account name implies that you are editing on behalf of a group - it doesn't matter who has access. However, if you want to change your username, you can go here and follow the instructions - all your edits will be re-attributed. I hope this doesn't discourage you from editing - Wikipedia is really a great place. It's a Fox! (Talk to me?) 17:00, 4 February 2013 (UTC)

delsort.js

I really appreciate the script. :) Little thing: Could you perhaps make it context sensitive...i.e., only appearing on AfD pages? I think you could use something like this:
if (wgPageName.indexOf('Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/') != -1 && wgPageName.indexOf('Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Log/200') == -1) {

Reverted an edit in "Anti-establishment"

Hey there. I'm not wedded to it, but I think I was helping by adding dead prez into Anti-establishment. They fit extremely well with the other information already on the page--albeit I think I would agree if someone proposed that the entire page needed a major overhaul that might end up with no mention of dead prez.

Nonetheless: What? Why? Did you read the article? Are you familiar with the works of dead prez?

Hi, I removed the BLP prod that you added to Sarfaraz Saifi because another editor added a source. If you believe that the article still does not meet inclusion criteria feel free to initiate an AfD or traditional prod. J04n(talk page) 15:26, 6 February 2013 (UTC)

Assume Good Faith

You should have assumed good faith by leaving a message on my talk page instead of taking me for a common troll. Do you even know who I am? I made that edit because I believed it to be constructive, and I can't believe you would revert it without consulting me. If you do something like that again, I will report you for arbitration. —72.215.153.100 (talk) 19:10, 7 February 2013 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) Your edit looked like an unconstructive edit. It didn't help the page... why would you redirect the page? This is vandalism, especially since you WP:EDITWARred to re-add it. Even if it was constructive, Fox didn't need permission to readd it; see WP:BRD. Arbitration is unnecessary here. If you really think Fox violated a core Wikipedia policy, feel free to report it at WP:ANI. Vacation9 19:43, 7 February 2013 (UTC)

Hi. I'm so sorry because I didn't save my subpage in my user space but I don't know how to do it. I come from pt:WP and there we have Subpages categories. Here I d'ont understand how to do it.

(talk page stalker) I'm not sure exactly what you mean by that. I believe you're looking for how to save subpages in your userspace. This can be done by simply creating a page starting with, in your case, "User:Nini00/". If you wanted to create an article on a Potato, you would do "User:Nini00/Potato". Hope this helped.

Decline of Lenzman article

Hello,

I noticed you just declined my article on Lenzman. The main reason being 'the golden rule' (significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent) Well I looked up the golden rule and one of the sources is an interview in Mixmag, a leading dance music magazine. I'm not sure how that doesn't qualify under the golden rule?

Can you please explain what I've done wrong, because I've done my utmost to make this article work.

Thank you,

Hi Fox Wilson, Hope you read my reply regarding the speedy deletion of the 'List of Rivers by name' Do you genuinely think a list would be not worth hosting on Wikipedia? regards James emmans — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jemmans (talk • contribs) 15:04, 13 February 2013 (UTC)

Special:DoubleRedirects

I am not sure what happened but it seems like your bot has generated a number of double redirects somehow.

I'm not the one who coded that part of the bot -- you could talk to Vacation9 about that. In short though, it's doing that as part of a fix for Romanian characters, it won't/shouldn't fix double redirects unless it moved a page as well. It's a Fox! (Talk to me?) 11:28, 19 February 2013 (UTC)

Your delsort script

Hi there. I just noticed that you were developing User:Fox Wilson/delsort.js, which made me very happy because I've been waiting for a good delsort script for ages. :) I tried adding it to my vector.js, though, and it doesn't seem to be working. (The buttons appear on AfD pages, but nothing happens when you click them.) Is the script in a usable state? I'd love to get it working properly. — Mr. Stradivarius ♪ talk ♪ 15:02, 19 February 2013 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) It works for me - have you purged the page in your browser? If so, do any errors show in your javascript console? Vacation9 15:09, 19 February 2013 (UTC)
Yep, I purged the page. I got the following error when I tried clicking on one the "academics and educators" delsort link at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Complete Set Character (probably a good job it didn't work this time, because that's definitely the wrong category):

Interesting... it worked for me ([1]) I'm using Chrome. Line 89 gets edit tokens; do you mind visiting this link a few times and telling me if you get any errors (obviously don't say what it includes)? Vacation9 15:25, 19 February 2013 (UTC)
Nope, no errors from that link at all. — Mr. Stradivarius ♪ talk ♪ 15:27, 19 February 2013 (UTC)
The problem is that it's parsing the data before it's ready. You or Fox need to change xhr.readyState==4 on line 88 to xhr.readyState==4 && xhr.status==200, then it should all be perfect. Vacation9 15:33, 19 February 2013 (UTC)
Ok, I updated the script, and I tried clicking on the "academics and educators" delsort link at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Complete Set Character again. This time there were no errors! ...but the script still didn't do any deletion sorting. :( I'm afraid I shall have to continue this conversation tomorrow - sleep is calling. Thank you for all your help so far! — Mr. Stradivarius ♪ talk ♪ 15:43, 19 February 2013 (UTC)
Alright, see you in the morning. Sorry to hear you're still having problems; you purged the page correct? It must be a local JavaScript issue or something, or a Firefox issue. I'll look into it later. Vacation9 15:45, 19 February 2013 (UTC)

Aha! I've found the cause of the problem - the script doesn't work when you are logged into the secure server. On the normal server it works fine for me, but on the secure server clicking on a delsort link does nothing. Would this be difficult to fix? — Mr. Stradivarius on tour ♪ talk ♪ 09:25, 20 February 2013 (UTC)
Oh, that makes some sense. Should be able to implement something by the end of the day if all goes well. It's a Fox! (Talk to me?) 11:11, 20 February 2013 (UTC)

Vacation9 provided a quick fix,, and I have updated the script. Now it also works on the secure server! Woo! I'm guessing it would break if someone tried to use it through the old secure server, though, but that doesn't strike me as such a pressing need. — Mr. Stradivarius ♪ talk ♪ 12:59, 20 February 2013 (UTC)
Also, I couldn't resist adding a link to the AfD discussion to the edit summary for the delsort page. I usually check the AfDs directly from the watchlist without bothering to open the delsort page itself, so I thought adding this to the script might be useful. Of course, feel free to revert it or tweak it however you want, though. — Mr. Stradivarius ♪ talk ♪ 13:12, 20 February 2013 (UTC)
I meant to do that at one point :) so it's definitely for the better It's a Fox! (Talk to me?) 13:19, 20 February 2013 (UTC)
I hope you don't mind, but I also created some documentation for the script at User:Fox Wilson/delsort, and I tweaked the edit summaries to link to it. Your script now has its very own shortcut - WP:FWDS (that's short for Fox Wilson Deletion Sorting). This is the last time I'll mess with your page, I promise, and feel free to undo any of my changes (or to choose a different shortcut). — Mr. Stradivarius ♪ talk ♪ 14:58, 20 February 2013 (UTC)

VoxelBot errors

I want to inform you about some errors made by your VoxelBot. VoxelBot performed task named "Replacing incorrect Romanian characters with correct characters", but during this replaced bot replaced not only Romanian, but also Turkish characters, which is not correct replacement. Here are some examples:

  • Article Temeşvar Eyalet was named in Turkish, not in Romanian. This was province of Ottoman Empire whose official language was Turkish and character "ş" is shared by both languages, Turkish and Romanian. However, character in this name was not Romanian but Turkish. Your both renamed "Temeşvar" to "Temeșvar" and as far as I know there is no such letter in Turkish. Can you please revert name of that page to correct Turkish title?
  • In some articles, bot also changed other Turkish names and transformed Turkish character into Romanian one. Here are examples: [2], [3]. Can you please correct these errors? Also, you should not perform more similar tasks with this bot so that further damage is not made. So far, I noticed that only shared Turkish-Romanian character "ş" is wrongly transformed by a bot, but you should check for other possible similar characters in two languages before you proceed with bot tasks. Thank you. 178.253.204.37 (talk) 14:49, 21 February 2013 (UTC)
Please check this: S-comma - "This letter however was not part of the early Unicode versions, and not in the predecessors like ISO/IEC_8859-2 and Windows-1250, which is why Ş (S-cedilla) is often used in digital texts in Romanian. S-cedilla was introduced for computers for the sake of the Turkish language, and later it was used unchanged also for the Romanian language." 178.253.204.37 (talk) 15:00, 21 February 2013 (UTC)
I'm in charge of this area of the bot, so I'll answer your concerns. These types of errors were discussed in the BRFA and, sadly, are unavoidable since the bot is an automated editor and can't detect this. This is hopefully an isolated incident. I rolled back the edits you mentioned, but the article title seems Romanian from looking at the lead. This shouldn't happen any more since from now on it will be running on strictly Romanian articles. Those pages were from the Banat category which was safe to run on because the other two countries which Banat is located in don't use that character. Thanks for letting me know! Vacation9 15:04, 21 February 2013 (UTC)
Well, I would disagree that Banat region is safe area for bot tasks. That territory was part of Ottoman Empire for about two centuries and that is why Turkish names are used in some Banat articles. Let now go back to Temeşvar Eyalet article. Title of that article is not Romanian. Please check what changes bot made there: [4]. From a second paragraph you can see how this Ottoman province was named in different languages. You can see that Temeşvar, Tımışvar or Tamışvar are Turkish names for the province, while Romanian name is Eialetul Timişoarei or Paşalâcul Timişoara. From diff which I provided is clear that bot changed Turkish name of the title and also changed all Turkish names in article itself. "Temeşvar" is Turkish name only, not used in Romanian. You really should correct that. 178.253.205.140 (talk) 10:15, 23 February 2013 (UTC)
I've rolled back and corrected that one, thank you. Please not the bot is finished now. I was told in the Bot Request that Banat was a safe area, but I guess not. Happy editing, and let me know if you find more. Vacation9 14:59, 23 February 2013 (UTC)
I did found few more: [5], [6], [7]. 178.253.202.142 (talk) 08:07, 24 February 2013 (UTC)

Judy Chicago's Article

Hi there, how are you? I am very familiar with the guidelines on biographical entries on Wiki and also with what is considered an appropriate number of sources. What I am saying to you here is that the sources cited don't count because they are 1, fraudulent, 2, citing information that does not actually appear in the texts they cite. To my mind, this would seem to urgently need some sort of BLP tab - is there one that you would suggest that is appropriate for 1, fraud, 2, plagiarism, 3, slander of a living person?

Forum for meta-changes?

I have an idea for a wikipedia addition. I think it would be nice to be able to follow arguments as opposed to "just" non-controversial knowledge. Imagine that there would be pages with hypothesises, stating clearly in a preluding section (or in some kind of endnote like todays sources) which premisses are used to evaluate the hypothesis. In the page for the hypothesis, both pro- and con- arguments would be listed. Also, it would be nice to have a section of consequences, i.e. other hypothesises that need the current argument to hold up to scrutiny. In this way, for well-managed topics, it would be possible to follow a chain of arguments back to the roots without clogging the text with proofs and doubts unnecessary to the average reader. If this idea is successful, it might mean that scientists would start using wikipedia as the place of universal evaluation and stating of arguments, making them available to the public. Now, my question to you is, if I want to advocate such an idea, where do I take it? Is there a forum for meta changes somewhere, or a group to join or something like that? Best Regards, Peter. --PeterVargen (talk) 10:38, 24 February 2013 (UTC)

A couple comments. I think it would be good to include a "call to action" here, that is, suggesting that the problem might be addressed by things like adding sources or sourcing indvidual claims that would show notability via GNG or an SNG, respectively. Maybe even just the GNG bit, like {{notabilty}} does, and/or phrasing that suggests that non-notable articles may be eligible for deletion? Second, for long-term tagged articles, is it at all possible (and this might be a stretch) to make note of the fact that they've been tagged a really long time? Anyway, really cool either way, just some suggestions. Cheers, --j⚛e deckertalk 17:42, 28 February 2013 (UTC)

abl== duplicate check in delsort ==

Hi there, I was wondering if you could do some form of duplicate delsort tagging checks. I just stepped on Gene93k's toes and we both tagged an AFD within minutes with the same delsort. diff. A minor issue, but it could easily happen either like that with near simultaneous edit, or conversely in long AFDs you might find delsorting might be overlooked and duplicated days or weeks apart. Fantastic tool, glad to have it back, but can you add Australia to the default list, or make the list customisable? Cheers, The-Pope (talk) 16:12, 1 April 2013 (UTC)

Element Mobile Edit

Hello,

You recently denied my request to edit Element Mobile's wiki page without siting any reason, can you explain why my request was denied and what I can do to get the changes posted? The Opening section on the page is outdated and is not supported by valid links. I am proposing that the following edit be implemented (below). Thank you! Akbemis (talk)


Element Mobile started in business on Jan. 8, 2011 when it moved customers from the former company network to its own, new mobile switching equipment. The first three months of this transition were marked by service outages and customer complaints. While most of the service issues were resolved in the first quarter of 2011, a number of customers filed complaints with the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection. Element Mobile and DATCP reached a $248,000 settlement on April 25, 2012 remediating all customer complaints. [1] One of Element Mobile’s key purposes for being created was to ensure that the people and businesses of its Central Wisconsin service area would have access to leading mobile phone and data services. Since Element Mobile was formed, mobile services and options for customers in the market area have grown substantially. The number of Android-based smart phone choices has grown from one to several, high-speed data usage doubled; and the number of smart phones bought jumped from 600 to 7,000. In early 2012, Element Mobile customers reached milestones such as 500 million minutes used and one billion text messages sent. [2]


I found that it was written in a slightly promotional tone. If you want, and when I get the chance, I can look it again and perhaps we can work something out. Also, if you're closely related to Element Mobile, you may wish to read WP:COI. Thanks for editing!

It's a Fox! (What did I break) 00:17, 5 April 2013 (UTC)

For ceasing the repeated deletion of Tessa Dahl's page. How can one find out who did it - or the vandalism last year in which they called her a ""whore." It read "After attending Roedean and Downe House Schools she became a whore." The same person who tried to delete Tessa Dahl's page also wrote an incorrect and disrespectful remark on her Talk page.

Voxelbot updating talk page for Featured List

Hello-

Sorry to bother you if the correct thing to do is just wait longer, however I am curious in regards to the status of List of Detroit Red Wings draft picks. Voxelbot archived the FLC nomination at 10:01 on 24 July and added the featured list star to the article two minutes later. However the talk page has not been updated with the {{ArticleHistory}} template. I would do it manually but the instructions specifically say not to. I've never been involved in the Featured List/Featured Article process before, so I don't know how long this usually takes.

Article Feedback Tool update

Hey Fox Wilson. I'm contacting you because you're involved in the Article Feedback Tool in some way, either as a previous newsletter recipient or as an active user of the system. As you might have heard, a user recently anonymously disabled the feedback tool on 2,000 pages. We were unable to track or prevent this due to the lack of logging feature in AFT5. We're deeply sorry for this, as we know that quite a few users found the software very useful, and were using it on their articles.

We've now re-released the software, with the addition of a logging feature and restrictions on the ability to disable. Obviously, we're not going to automatically re-enable it on each article—we don't want to create a situation where it was enabled by users who have now moved on, and feedback would sit there unattended—but if you're interested in enabling it for your articles, it's pretty simple to do. Just go to the article you want to enable it on, click the "request feedback" link in the toolbox in the sidebar, and AFT5 will be enabled for that article.

Again, we're very sorry about this issue; hopefully it'll be smooth sailing after this :). If you have any questions, just drop them at the talkpage. Thanks! Okeyes (WMF) 21:36, 1 September 2013 (UTC)

Voxel Bot

Hi, Fox! Thank you for taking over the tasks done by GimmeBot on closing nomination pages from the Featured article process. I've just encountered an issue that ... I might not be able to explain well, but I'll try.

This is Dr Pda's articlehistory script, which is used to detect items that belong in articlehistory: User:Dr pda/articlehistory.js. It was the script that User:Maralia, User:Gimmetrow, User:Dr pda and I used when we initially built all of the articlehistories for every FA, and it has continued to be useful for finding missing oldids in articlehistory events.

I've just encountered some FAs whose articlehistory templates do not contain oldids from the date of promotion (sample), and when running the articlehistory script so I can add them, I'm finding that <something, don't know what> about your edit summaries when updating articlehistory for FAs is not being picked up by the script, meaning I have to manually locate the missing oldids to add them to the articlehistory template. I suspect it's related to keywords that the script searches for in the talk page history. If you could adjust your edit summaries to account for <whatever> the script uses, the script can continued to be used. I'm not sure if I'm explaining this well ... but appreciate any help you can give. Regards, SandyGeorgia (Talk) 00:37, 3 November 2013 (UTC)

SandyGeorgia, that part of the bot is maintained by Vacation9. I'll let him know about the issue, and we'll hopefully get it fixed soon. Thanks for letting us know. It's a Fox! (What did I break) 02:08, 3 November 2013 (UTC)
@Vacation9: I just looked at the script, and what Sandy's asking for could be accomplished with a simple change to the edit summary used by Voxelbot when adding articlehistory:
Updating Article history
Updating {{Article history}}
Adding brackets would make Voxelbot's edits match the patterns used by the script to find articlehistory-relevant edits. Thanks. Maralia (talk) 04:54, 3 November 2013 (UTC)
Thanks all! (By the way, if Vacation knows for what time period the bot wasn't adding oldids on FA page closes, I could work back through the archives to add them). Whenever I see something awful in an FA (which is becoming more and more frequent), it's helpful to be able to click on the oldid to see if the bad stuff was in the promoted version. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 13:38, 3 November 2013 (UTC)

Another (less pressing) issue with the bot, which I think was identified quite early on but I thought had been fixed, is that it sometimes mixes up just who has closed a nomination. This is a recent example, where I actually archived the nom but Graham is 'credited' with doing so after the bot has done its thing. As I say, not as urgent as some other things but curious, and something I hope can be addressed when you guys get a chance. Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 22:39, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

Looks like that's a problem left over from the Labs migration, I'll have it fixed in a bit. Thanks for reminding me :) It's a Fox! (What did I break) 01:23, 19 March 2014 (UTC)
Looks like you got it back up and it made two edits two days ago, but nothing since then. Mojoworker (talk) 21:45, 21 March 2014 (UTC)
Strange. I've been getting job scheduling emails from Labs, so it's possible that it just doesn't need to edit. I'll look at it again... It's a Fox! (What did I break) 21:47, 21 March 2014 (UTC)
Seems like it did the same thing - ran twice (at 00:00 UTC and then half an hour later) then didn't run again. That was about 17 hours ago. Strange indeed. Mojoworker (talk) 16:58, 22 March 2014 (UTC)
Still down since you restarted it on 21 March 2014. Any idea why it starts up at 00:00 UTC and runs only twice (then and half an hour later at 00:30 UTC) and then quits? Mojoworker (talk) 19:09, 24 March 2014 (UTC)
