Hi Random, you made the last edit (in Nov) at ], so you might be a good person to run this by. What projects that seek to establish some kind of link between Misplaced Pages articles and objects in the real world seem most successful to you? The issue is coming up today because the homeschooling people are trying to re-redirect "WP:HOME". There is enough interest in the world (particularly among the Germans) for projects like Semapedia that my guess is that someone several months from now typing in WP:HOME would be looking for some similar project, but I'd like to nail this down before WP:HOME becomes forever tied to homeschooling! (P.S. Feel free to reply either here or on my talk page.) - Dan ] (]) 19:19, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

Template:Indefblockedbecause

Why does this put user pages in cat Temp user pages? Rich Farmbrough, 03:22 10 February 2008 (GMT).

I am concerned with the number of user-pages in this category, which means that they will be deleted. In particular, because of another warning template User talk:Thegone was deleted taking useful warnings with it. Rich Farmbrough, 13:40 10 February 2008 (GMT).

deletion reason script

I found another one not handled by the script: db-rediruser. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 19:46, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

Further tests

I've responded on my talk page, asking for more specific parameters. Cheers, alanyst 20:22, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

Reason Deletion

Hi, a few tags that would be great: {{csb-pageincludes}} and {{Csb-pageincluded}} --> G12. Both tags are put by User:CorenSearchBot when he finds a copyright violation. Thanks :) -- lucasbfr 14:31, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

Lost edits of analysis

Hi. I did a rewrite of the lede of analysis back when I split it into a prose article and a disambiguation article. Apparently the rewritten version was deleted in the process of moving the disambiguation page over it; could you possibly retrieve the deleted version and put it somewhere where I can access it? (A subpage of my user space, talk:analysis, I don't care where.) Thanks.--Father Goose (talk) 21:52, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

db-notice issue

Noticed your note on Template talk:Db-notice. The same problem was reported as Twinkle bug 117 I cannot think of a better way to solve it atm either, but perhaps we just need to add a "namespace" parameter instead and then have all templates and scripts that invoke this set that instead ? Seems like a more general approach to solve it that might be easier to implement in the various templates and scripts ? --TheDJ (talkcontribs) 13:47, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
