Disambiguation link notification for July 15

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Geoffrey de Bocland, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page St. Margaret (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Article Feedback Tool update

Hey It Is Me Here. 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) 21:46, 1 September 2013 (UTC)

Support for posting this nomination at ITN/RD seems universal (I support it), but you have done so without the article being updated per the RD requirements of a five sentence update. You should reverse your action immediately. Thanks. μηδείς (talk) 16:18, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

In fairness, the Project page says that "a five-sentence update is generally considered to be more than enough," rather than it being a minimum requirement. In any case, I hope the article has now been updated enough to pass this criterion anyway. It Is Me Here ^{t / c} 18:08, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

Restored; sorry about that, but it was the result of an edit conflict, and I never saw that you'd commented. For future reference, you need not ask me; it would have been fine for you to restore it yourself. Nyttend (talk) 14:43, 11 January 2014 (UTC)

Commons images on the main page

Hello! When transcluding a Commons image on the main page, please remember to first upload it to the English Wikipedia and tag it with the {{uploaded from Commons}} template. Otherwise, it will remain unprotected (and subject to replacement by a vandal) until KrinkleBot detects the transclusion and updates Commons:Auto-protected files/wikipedia/en accordingly. In the Ariel Sharon photograph's case, that took about 25 minutes. It sometimes takes several hours (and it won't occur at all during an outage, such as the one that spanned several days in November).
Currently, this notice appears when the ITN template is edited. Having recently added an animated "stop" graphic, I don't know what else to try to make it sufficiently attention-grabbing. If you have any ideas, your help would be appreciated. Thanks! —David Levy 22:58, 11 January 2014 (UTC)

OK, sorry about that! It Is Me Here ^{t / c} 23:22, 11 January 2014 (UTC)

Your signature

This probably seems pedantic, but When I went to edit something on a talkpage below your post (I have Dot's syntax highlighter on), I noticed that there seemed to be a broken HTML tag in your signature. The code of your current signature looks like this: '''[[User:It Is Me Here|It Is Me Here]]''' '''[[User_talk:It Is Me Here|t]] / [[Special:Contributions/It Is Me Here|c]]''' As you can see, one of the '''s is outside the  tag, where it should be inside. I would appreciate it if you would just move the ''' one tag to the left, so your signature code would look like this:

'''[[User:It Is Me Here|It Is Me Here]]''' '''[[User_talk:It Is Me Here|t]] / [[Special:Contributions/It Is Me Here|c]]'''

Thank you! APerson (talk!) 20:38, 28 January 2014 (UTC)

OK, is it better now? It Is Me Here ^{t / c} 23:07, 28 January 2014 (UTC)

Yes - thanks! APerson (talk!) 02:22, 29 January 2014 (UTC)

ITN

Canyou provide another source for the Sappho discovery? The video can't be seen outside the UK. μηδείς (talk) 18:29, 2 February 2014 (UTC)

An RfC that you may be interested in...

As one of the previous contributors to {{Infobox film}} or as one of the commenters on it's talk page, I would like to inform you that there has been a RfC started on the talk page as to implementation of previously deprecated parameters. Your comments and thoughts on the matter would be welcomed. Happy editing!

Recent deaths

Any reason you removed the link for recent deaths from the main page? Lugnuts ^{Dick Laurent is dead} 13:21, 27 April 2014 (UTC)

It's because the only RD listed there was quite old (stale); see [2] for precedent. It Is Me Here ^{t / c} 13:42, 27 April 2014 (UTC)

Lugnuts also started a discussion about this at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Archive261#Main page recent deaths. — Mr. Stradivarius ^{♪ talk ♪} 15:16, 27 April 2014 (UTC)

Request for comment

Cite journal

Is prefered over cite doi. Best Doc James (talk · contribs · email) (if I write on your page reply on mine) 15:32, 31 May 2014 (UTC)

Consensus is here [3] Doc James (talk · contribs · email) (if I write on your page reply on mine) 15:34, 31 May 2014 (UTC)

To editor Jmh649: Could you at least subst: the {{cite doi}}s, rather than reverting? The way the {{cite journal}}s are done at the moment is sloppy (some fields left out; e.g. "Surname AB, Lastname CD" rather than "Surname, A. B.; Lastname, C. D."). That's why I used {{cite doi}}: to get a bot to fill the template out to ensure that it would be formatted correctly. It Is Me Here ^{t / c} 17:02, 31 May 2014 (UTC)

Most editors want the details of the refs within our articles. How does one substitute the details within the article? Doc James (talk · contribs · email) (if I write on your page reply on mine) 18:11, 31 May 2014 (UTC)

It took a bit of jiggery-pokery, but it's been done now. Is that now OK? It Is Me Here ^{t / c} 21:45, 31 May 2014 (UTC)

We like the refs formatted the same as the ref tool bar formats them: over one line. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) (if I write on your page reply on mine) 03:02, 1 June 2014 (UTC)

Is it OK now? It Is Me Here ^{t / c} 22:00, 1 June 2014 (UTC)

The refs were standardly formatted before. I do not understand why the reordering and the adding of the unneeded url? Doc James (talk · contribs · email) (if I write on your page reply on mine) 03:46, 2 June 2014 (UTC)

Because the formatting of them is slightly more accurate, as I intimated above. But, since you keep objecting to my edits, I will no longer be pursuing this. It Is Me Here ^{t / c} 12:19, 2 June 2014 (UTC)

So my questions are: 1)Why the url? 2)Why change the ordering of the sections within the ref? Overall the refs got less not more consistent. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) (if I write on your page reply on mine) 13:22, 2 June 2014 (UTC)

RD

Please replace Di Stefano to RD. His death is not "stale". Thanks. The Rambling Man (talk) 21:09, 12 July 2014 (UTC)

Never mind, I've done it. Suggest your familiarise yourself with the way ITN works before wading in and making obvious mistakes. The Rambling Man (talk) 21:16, 12 July 2014 (UTC)

Anwar al-Awlaki

Re your message about U.S./US and U.K./UK, I did know about that MoS rule. I cannot remember now, but going by my edit summaries, I clearly thought consistency with the rest of the article was more important. I have reverted my changes, but there still remain a lot of U.K.s and U.S.s in the article. I would have altered them now, but the "search and replace" tool in the edit box does not work, or not on my laptop at least. I have been meaning to report it for some time to the Village Pump HD and will do now. If I get it sorted out, I will come back and do those other changes. --P123ct1 (talk) 13:32, 12 August 2014 (UTC)

Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab

I saw your post over on Talk:Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab about the lede, so I made a suggestion for more neutral language. Just giving you a heads up in case you want to check it out. If no one objects, we can replace the old one with this (slightly) modified one. Ljpernic (talk) 11:55, 27 August 2014 (UTC)

Cascading Module:Citation/CS1

I could be wrong, but I think the only effect of adding cascading protection to Module:Citation/CS1 was to full-protect the doc page (Module:Citation/CS1/doc) and all of the templates that appear on the doc page (e.g. {{high-risk}}, {{module rating}}). As best I can tell, cascading protection applied to modules doesn't extend to any of the submodules that the module dynamically loads. So I don't think it has the effect that you imagined it would. As describing at CASCADE, we don't generally apply cascading protection directly to templates because it doesn't work well, and I believe the same it probably true for Lua modules as well. Dragons flight (talk) 19:36, 3 September 2014 (UTC)

Oh, sorry. Yes, you're right, my idea was that it automatically protect pages like Module:Citation/CS1/Arguments, and any such pages as might be created in the future. If it didn't work, please feel free to revert. Best, It Is Me Here ^{t / c} 19:44, 3 September 2014 (UTC)

Missa

Your hat note to Missa brevis for the so-called Lutheran Missa, Missa (Bach), would be good if the article still existed. "Lutheran" is only so-called, because the masses of only Kyrie and Gloria were liked by Catholics as well. I don't know a good way out of the dilemma. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:15, 15 December 2014 (UTC)

To editor Gerda Arendt: I am by no means a subject expect. All I wanted to do was to convert someone's pre-existing attempt to type out a hatnote in full (the code used to be ":''see also main article:'' [[Missa (Bach)]]") into a proper hatnote template. I am entirely neutral re. the article content. It Is Me Here ^{t / c} 17:19, 15 December 2014 (UTC)

Sorry, misunderstood. I more less unwatched the development and should have done it more thoroughly ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:21, 15 December 2014 (UTC)
