It would delight me, too. It's dizzying to read two formats for the same date on the same line.

<big>'''Dispute Resolution – ''Survey Invite'''''</big>
----
Hello {{BASEPAGENAME}}. I am currently conducting a study on the dispute resolution processes on the English Misplaced Pages, in the hope that the results will help improve these processes in the future. Whether you have used dispute resolution a little or a lot, now we need to know about your experience. The survey takes around five minutes, and the information you provide will not be shared with third parties other than to assist in analyzing the results of the survey. No personally identifiable information will be released.
'''Please click to participate.'''<br>
Many thanks in advance for your comments and thoughts.

== Spoilers in episode lists? ==
Your script changes other stuff in the refs, though. You could delink it since it wouldn't change anything - date= would still get linked by the cite template. But if "consistency" is the thing, then it's odd to have some refs with January 1, 2001, and others with ], no? ISO for the date= field was a recent thing. And I see no reason publication dates can't be in one format and accessdates in iso-style. ] 21:25, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

== Notice of move request ==
In the date= field of the most-used cite templates, it won't make a difference. Unlinked yyyy-mm-dd fields are checked for and linked if they pass the check. (Though there is a bug in the check in at least one template.) But for various reasons I wouldn't automatically unlink iso-style dates outside the date= field. ] 22:31, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

:Hmm. You are saying that if we turn 'date=<nowiki>]</nowiki>' into 'date=2001-01-01' it will still produce a link for the reader. If that is the case, the edit makes no sense.

I sent you an email with details, if you did not get it please ], so that I can send you an email with the survey questions.

{{you've got mail}}
It certainly is. I have been an editor and an administrator for several years and edit Misplaced Pages pretty much every day and it's the first I've heard of it. Where was this discussed openly apart from between a few interested parties on the MoS page? It's a huge change and one I certainly don't agree with. It seems this has been rather slipped in by the back door and for such a major change that is the wrong way to go about things. -- ] (]) 13:35, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

I think you're likely to get a lot of editors concerned about this; you might want to put a large note at the top of your user talk page briefly explaining why and directing editors to ]. As the author of quite a few biographies I've no problem with the unlinking of dates in articles, although I think a lot of editors will not realise that the reason they were supposed to be linked was because of date preference. Many editors will just that "Misplaced Pages articles have dates linked" and might wrongly assume it is a newbie mistake to unlink them. ] (]) 13:44, 5 September 2008 (UTC)


== Template talk:Height ==
:I too am an author of many biographies. I'm fully aware of why dates are linked. And I totally disagree with their delinking, particularly the manner in which it seems to have been introduced.

Given your previous involvement in the discussion at ], I just thought I'd bring a closely related ] to your attention (as per ]).--] (]) 03:52, 23 January 2014 (UTC)
I mention the guideline page in the edit summary. My talk page is full of explanations. In fact, the word is getting round but it does not matter how many flashing lights, alarm bells and town criers are created, people will still think 'Misplaced Pages articles have to be linked', as you say. That was what I was told in no uncertain terms a long time ago. You are also correct that some people think it is a newbie error. However, the statistics show that the vast majority of articles stay unlinked. But this sort of debate should really be on the guideline pages because it does not matter much what I think. ] (]) 13:53, 5 September 2008 (UTC)


== please, dont add convert template to the urls ==
:I see no mention of the guideline in any of your ! They merely say "Units/dates/other using AWB", which doesn't tell anyone anything. The "word is getting around" only because we're suddenly having dates delinked in articles we're watching. That's a ''fait accompli'', not a discussion. -- ] (]) 14:02, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

Although date autolinking has been deprecated on MOSNUM, it is '''''NOT''''' (at this time) the case that there has been consensus approval for the mass deletion of existing links. You might want to suspend doing so on properly formed date links until there is. (Cf. ].) Cheers, ] <small>]</small> 00:47, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on ], requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under ], because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read ] and ] for more information.

:The linked "proposals" seem to hold little water and to be going around in circles. There are major snags inherent in their development and adoption. On the other hand, what LM and others, including me, are doing is to conduct much-needed date audits. These are no quick and dirty applications of bots, but sensitively managed improvements of a number of aspects WRT dates, with human oversight. They improve the reading experience of our readers. They reinforce the need among WPians to manage dates properly. They promote their consultation of MOSNUM and CONTEXT among a broad range of WPians through edit-summary links. And not least, they perform a valuable service to WPians in enabling conformation and consistency with the MoS. These reasons probably explain why there has been only a miniscule incidence of reversion or complaint, and even little comment, compared with the number of audits. ] ] 04:37, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

::A proposal is a proposal nonetheless, Tony. Don't be dismissive of other editors' efforts to get their opinions expressed and consensus to be reached.

If there are proposals that are being discussed, please respect the process and stop until a final consensus has been reached. — ] (]) 16:54, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

You may consider it a technicality to distinguish between the actions of a bot and those of a human, but I can assure you that other people take it very seriously. So it is important to get the owner of the edit correct before investigating. That is all. Anyway, as far as delinking actions of humans is concerned, it seems to me that the only solution is to change the wording at wp:mosnum to forbid it. Can we take this to the talk page of ]? ] (]) 17:02, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

:Tennis expert, you've already announced that you're in favour of ditching single-year links, of which there is a virtual blue blizzard in tennis-related articles. Are you not also in favour of cleaning out the date autoformatting so that our readers can easily identify the high-value links? If not, perhaps I might link you to a convenient information page on this matter. Please let me know. As far as consensus goes, I think you're clinging to the idea of WikiProject "consensus" (I'm unsure it exists in this case) above the common-sense movement in the WP's highest-level style and format authorities.

Dispute resolution survey

Dispute Resolution – Survey Invite

Hello Lightmouse. I am currently conducting a study on the dispute resolution processes on the English Misplaced Pages, in the hope that the results will help improve these processes in the future. Whether you have used dispute resolution a little or a lot, now we need to know about your experience. The survey takes around five minutes, and the information you provide will not be shared with third parties other than to assist in analyzing the results of the survey. No personally identifiable information will be released.

Spoilers in episode lists?

Hi, I see you've been involved in Misplaced Pages:Manual of Style/Television. I have begun a discussion on spoilers in episode lists and would appreciate your input. -- ke4roh (talk) 02:28, 17 July 2012 (UTC)

It has been proposed that Daimler 2.5 & 4.5 litre, to which you have contributed, be moved to "Daimler V8 engine". Your input into the discussion would be welcome. Sincerely, SamBlob (talk) 20:59, 21 July 2012 (UTC)

User:Lightmouse/monobook.js/script.js

Hi. Arbitrators have been suggesting that people use this instead of Ohconfucius' script, but it looks from the path as if it only works on monobook. Any comment? --Mirokado (talk) 09:45, 22 July 2012 (UTC)

Request to take part in a survey

Hi there. I would very much appreciate it if you could spend ~2 minutes and take a short survey - a project trying to understand why the most active Misplaced Pages contributors (such as yourself) may reduce their activity, or retire. I sent you an email with details, if you did not get it please send me a wikiemail, so that I can send you an email with the survey questions. I would very much appreciate your cooperation, as you are among the most active Misplaced Pages editors who show a pattern of reduced activity, and thus your response would be extremely valuable. Thanks! --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 12:37, 22 July 2013 (UTC)

Template talk:Height

Given your previous involvement in the discussion at Template_talk:Height#Centimetres, I just thought I'd bring a closely related Request for Comment to your attention (as per Misplaced Pages:Canvassing).--Gibson Flying V (talk) 03:52, 23 January 2014 (UTC)

please, dont add convert template to the urls

About your AWB edit: Strategic Petroleum Reserve (United States) diff 392798962 15:09, 25 October 2010 "Mostly units using AWB (7290)". Text before edit: 

Strategic Petroleum Reserve Plan Expansion To One Billion Barrels Submitted To Congress (Page 5), United States Department of Energy</ref>.

Text after edit with incorrect URL: 

billion barrels (160×10^ m).pdf Strategic Petroleum Reserve Plan Expansion To One Billion Barrels Submitted To Congress (Page 5), United States Department of Energy</ref>

I think we should not change units inside the URLs. Does current version of AWD convert it? Should we report bug to AWB developers? `a5b (talk) 08:16, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Misplaced Pages arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Speedy deletion nomination of EROCKIT

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on EROCKIT, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Misplaced Pages:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.
