== Add a Fact survey and thank you ==

Thank you for testing out the ]! This extension was developed as an experiment by the ] at the Wikimedia Foundation to learn about new ways of contributing to Misplaced Pages from outside of our website/apps.

We are planning to wrap up this experiment '''this December''', sunsetting the extension and publishing our findings on-wiki. We’d like to invite you to take part in an exit survey to tell us more about your experience of trying out the extension, and to share any ideas you have about how to support new ways of contributing to Misplaced Pages. The survey is anonymous (see the survey ]) and should take about 10–15 minutes to complete.

You can .

Kind regards, ]

== Sockpuppetry allegations ==

I am not Teapotsofdoom. I have restored the pages in question to before you improperly struck my edits. I even fixed November 19 for you, but if you want to go back and strike Teapots's edits from November 20, be my guest, but I'm not going to take the time extricating mine from the other. ] (]) 14:00, 21 November 2024 (UTC)

:while i won't opine much on the ip being or not being a sock, i don't think saying that the ip saying they're not a sock is proof that they are is the best argument you could come up with. maybe "overly similar behavior" or "spi tools" would work a little better
:and for the record, i don't think is the best of comebacks either '''] <sub>] ]</sub>''' 14:30, 21 November 2024 (UTC)
::Nothing of the IPs was deleted, only struck, except where I removed a whole RfD and the IP was the only !vote. Therefore when the IP restored all Teapot's content, saying "restore; I am not a sock" this seemed an admission to being Teapots. Their re-revert comment is much clearer. It's good that they understand my take of their original edit summary, but only they know what they originally meant. If they are not a sock, then all is good, although they do seem to share behavioural traits with Teapots. All the best: ''] ]''<small> 15:57, 21 November 2024 (UTC).</small>

:on a semi-related note, wouldn't just deleting the discussions from rfd cause technical issues, with the funny rfd boxes still in the redirects? not that i'm much of an expert in the area of technical closure, but i'm pretty sure closing them as speedy keep without much prejudice to renomination would have caused way less trouble '''] <sub>] ]</sub>''' 16:08, 21 November 2024 (UTC)

Regarding your {{tlx|Vertical text RTL}} template, would you mind moving it to something like {{tlx|Vertical text RTL columns}}? I feel {{tlx|Vtext-css3}} may be a more natural fit at the base name. <span style="border-radius:2px;padding:3px;background:#1E816F">]<span style="color:#fff">&nbsp;‥&nbsp;</span>]</span> 07:16, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

Wikidata weekly summary #659

Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata in the
week leading up to 2024-12-23. Missed the previous one? See issue #658

Discussions

Events

  • Ongoing: Wikidata Cleanup 2024 - Romaine continues his initiative, "Wikidata Cleanup," to coordinate community efforts in addressing the problem of items missing basic properties during the last ten days of 2024, when many users have extra time due to holidays. The aim is to improve data quality by focusing on ensuring all items have essential properties like "instance of" (P31) or "subclass of" (P279), adding relevant country and location data, and maintaining consistency within item series.
  • Upcoming events: Data Reuse Days - online event focusing on projects using Wikidata's data, 18-27 February 2025. You can submit a proposal for the program on the talk page until January 12th.

Press, articles, blog posts, videos

Tool of the week

  • Flying Dehyphenator is an Ordia game. Given the start part of a word, use the spacebar to move the word and hit the next part of the word. Only hyphenations described with the Unicode hyphenation character work.
  • Want a wrap of your Wikidata activities in 2024? Wiki Year In Review has it for you! (use www.wikidata.org for the project URL)

Other Noteworthy Stuff

  • Wikibase/Suite-Contributing-Guide: Wikibase Suite's contributing guide has been published. This guide aims to help anyone who wants to contribute and make sure they are equipped with all the relevant information to do so.

Newest properties and property proposals to review

You can comment on all open property proposals!
