How we will see unregistered users

Hi!

You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.

When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.

Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.

If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.

We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.

Thank you. /Johan (WMF)

Speedy deletion nomination of CS gas (data page)

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.

Hello, and welcome to Misplaced Pages. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on CS gas (data page) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, images, a rephrasing of the title, a question that should have been asked at the help or reference desks, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Misplaced Pages:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

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, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Can you be more careful with templating people please? Plainly the criteria under which this is being deleted has nothing to do with me. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 08:45, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
I understood you created this page back in 2007 . -DePiep (talk) 08:48, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
Sure, and then you templated me with an A3 warning as if I were a rank newbie who had just created a blank page. You blanked it yourself in the process of merging it. As such it isn't an A3 candidate in the first place, but for the sake of doing the right thing I've deleted it under G6. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 09:00, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
Yep, that's the db-notice template hidden in the /doc, so I am glad I even found it. Still nothing wrong with noticing the creator. BTW, do I read that for you this problemette changed from "I have nothing to do with" to "as if I were a rank newbie"? Anyway, I've read A3 again and I see no issue. Anything else? -DePiep (talk) 09:24, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
The problem was always the latter, which was caused by you picking the wrong deletion criterion, which meant that the associated notice template was less of a friendly notice and more of a warning. It doesn't matter now; the page is gone, so let's just drop it. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 09:26, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
(ec)I was responding to your concerns & remarks. From the start actually. Bye. -DePiep (talk) 09:28, 11 January 2022 (UTC)

Article s6 (init)

Good morning Thumperward. This article s6 (init) is as a draft, I think it should be published because it is relevant to the world of operating systems. Thank you very much. --Rstmnq1000 (talk) 00:39, 7 February 2022 (UTC)

It's not a draft, it's a skeleton. It presently contains almost no content. I've added some secondary sources to the external links; these should be used to build the article out. s6's primary use appears to be in containers, which isn't mentioned at all in the article right now, and that needs to be explained. Once it's been expanded it can be re-submitted, but right now it has no chance as a standalone article. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 16:54, 7 February 2022 (UTC)

List of non-mouse controllers by Apple, Inc. moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, List of non-mouse controllers by Apple, Inc., is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Misplaced Pages). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Misplaced Pages's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Collapsible list bold

Hi Thumperward. I’m trying to find a way to unbold the text automatically bolded as a heading when using Template:Collapsible list. Is it even possible through some additional parameter? Thank you. TaurenMoonlighting (talk) 20:05, 21 March 2023 (UTC)

Yep. As below:
I am not bold
  • a
  • b
  • c
  • d
  • e
  • f
Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 22:47, 21 March 2023 (UTC)
Thank you for the reply, I appreciate it. I’m trying to include a collapsible list within an another collapsible list. E.g.
Third Way

Is it possible to make the second list display properly? TaurenMoonlighting (talk) 13:55, 9 June 2023 (UTC)

You're explicitly bolding those entries with '''. That will always take precedence. Or am I missing what you're trying to do? Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 15:09, 9 June 2023 (UTC)
Yes, I wasn’t precise enough. The bold issue has been resolved thanks to your advice. I mean the second collapsible list (the one within another), i.e. Polish Coalition. The show/hide button is automatically above the title instead on the right (see the Third Way show/hide option for comparison), which might be misleading for readers. Is there a way to fix it? Thank you! TaurenMoonlighting (talk) 15:33, 9 June 2023 (UTC)
I don't think so, I'm afraid. At least not without diving deep into Javascript. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 14:19, 10 June 2023 (UTC)
Oh, I see. Wouldn’t you mind to have a look at the article Senate Pact 2023’s infobox then? In your opinion, should I change the current version to the above one (despite the show/hide button issue), or perhaps is it fine with regard to Misplaced Pages standards now? Thanks! TaurenMoonlighting (talk) 15:20, 10 June 2023 (UTC)
I would simply remove the parties from the inner list. Infoboxes are at-a-glance, they are not meant to be exhaustive and this is a very short article already. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 17:26, 10 June 2023 (UTC)

Declined PROD

I've declined the PROD on Sweet spot (economics), but not strongly.

My concern is that the argument for PROD is not strong; it claimed it was a "common idiom" but I would disagree with that. While the term "sweet spot" may be found, the meaning is varied and has subtleties that the reader may wish to have clarified. And I'm not even sure it's that common, especially today.

I would not be opposed to a merger of the multiple articles into one, but I think simply deleting any explanation based on the user already knowing the meaning is not the case. Maury Markowitz (talk) 13:41, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

Sigh. It's your article, of course you don't want it deleted. It's banal ("In a more general sense, the term can be applied to any optimization issue") and the single "reference" is to a blog post which is even worse (the sweet spot of economics is apparently the existence of the middle class). Merging would imply that we have articles whose purpose is to explain disparate meanings of words, i.e. dictionary definitions. PROD is such a useless system because it virtually relies on the article author having literally died since it was first created, and I spend enough of my time waiting around for editors to die already. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 09:39, 23 July 2023 (UTC)
I'll hurry up and die then, thanks. Maury Markowitz (talk) 16:46, 28 July 2023 (UTC)

Large see also sections

Hi! I saw you added the "too many see alsos" tag to a few articles, and since it was multiple in a short timespan (usually there's only 2-3 in that category across an entire month!) I was wondering if you had any specific way of finding these articles that have long see also sections, or if you just happened to come across them - I really enjoy cleaning these up, so if I could find them more easily that would help a lot :] No worries if it was just happenstance though! Suntooooth, it/he (talk/contribs) 01:15, 8 September 2023 (UTC)

Hey! Thanks so much for doing the work on these! I don't have any particular way of smelling these out (that's what the tag is for, after all) except that there's a tendency for them to clump around one another (so any particular article with an excessively long list might also be linked to from others with the same problem). I tend to check them all out when I'm doing {{annotated link}} cleanup anyway, so that helps. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 08:01, 8 September 2023 (UTC)

Maisonette

Regarding Maisonette -- there had been a discussion at Talk:Maisonette (disambiguation) resulting in moving the dab page and making the term into a primary topic redirect (which is still in place as a section hatnote at Apartment#Maisonette. I don't have an opinion as to whether it should be a PT redirect, but you might want to clean up the remaining artifacts (orphan talk page with RM and orphan hatnote). olderwiser 17:01, 19 October 2023 (UTC)

At some point that redirect was undone anyway, but the problem isn't where it formerly redirected so much that the double-N version didn't point to the same place as single-N and both were dabs. I'm not sure what to do with Talk:Maisonette (disambiguation) to be honest but considering that the entirety of the discussion is about a dead RM I'm not sure it matters really. I've removed the unneeded hatnote. Cheers. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 17:14, 19 October 2023 (UTC)

Water fuel cell page-move

I see for: Stanley Meyer's water fuel cellWater fuel cell you moved the page and the talkpage archives (good--lots movers forget those!) but did not move the main talkpage itself (I assume it was blocked by actual content existing on Talk:Water fuel cell. But before you figure out how to fix that, the itself had already been proposed at Talk:Water_fuel_cell/Archive_6#Requested_move and found not to have consensus (multiple well-reasoned opposes). That's no prejudice from starting a new RM discussion, but in the mean time please undo the move. DMacks (talk) 21:03, 2 December 2023 (UTC)

I had completely forgotten about that RM (in which I actually participated). The arguments against were appalling, the close was a head-count of idiots, but I'll move it back for now. I fully expect another round of the same, though hopefully a few of the opposes since then have died (the usual way by which progress is made on here).
