The reason I have cited reference nos 20 and 24 is because there are no available online sources citing these award ceremonies. This is mostly because the URL links might be dead (I've tried searching for them but to no avail). Other FLCs like [[List of accolades received by Lagaan]] (ref no 29), [[List of accolades received by Dookudu]], (ref no 16), [[List of accolades received by Fashion (2008 film)]] (ref nos 16 and 24), and [[List of accolades received by Kahaani]] (ref no 32) also use such citations to cite such award ceremonies. There are a few videos (like [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7hDqy3f33XU 1] and [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cEJJd8N-d4w 2] for the screen awards, but these are only in bits and parts and are from unverified youtube channels, ie they seem to be from user accounts. As for Zee Cine Awards, [https://www.google.co.in/search?q=zee+cine+awards+2004&dcr=0&source=lnms&tbm=vid&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjfxd3PiOTYAhUQTI8KHcAEAkAQ_AUICigB&biw=1440&bih=713 this google search] shows only some of the awards covered by the official youtube channel, not the entire bunch as even the youtube channel seems more focused on showing the dance performances than who the awards and nominees are). Hope you understand that this is not a Hollywood film accolades list, but one for Indian films, references for which are rather difficult to track, even for the latest award ceremonies. That is kind of a sad plight though. |

As for reference no 22, it shows the date on which the ceremony was held. I'll remove it if you wish it to be so. BTW, belated Happy New Year to you, and hope your future endeavours prove fruitful. {{smiley}} — [[User:Ssven2|<span style="font-family: Times New Roman;color:green">Ssven2</span>]] [[User talk:Ssven2#top|<sup><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;color:red">Looking at you, kid</span></sup>]] 12:57, 19 January 2018 (UTC) |

Winter Olympics categories
Hi, I've noticed you're going through the Olympics articles. Just recently, when we started introducing the women's (and men's and mixed) sport events categories, the idea was to have them structured. For example Category:Women's Alpine skiing events at the 2018 Winter Olympics. What do you think? --Tone 20:45, 10 January 2018 (UTC)
- Well, I was really just cleaning up after a sockpuppet who threw a lot of stuff into the basic Olympics stubs categories, but the idea of sport, olympics, and gender strikes me as a triple intersection that might be a touch too trivial -- depending on the mood of CFD any given day? Courcelles (talk) 20:52, 10 January 2018 (UTC)
- My original reaction when I saw the category was to send it to CfD but was then convinced that it is ok. Therefore, I said to myself, if we have those, we better have them properly ;) No hard opinion anyway. --Tone 20:59, 10 January 2018 (UTC)
- If someone wants to create it out for all the prior Olympics, that would be an interesting thing, actually. Only going to be really useful if someone builds out the whole thing. May I ask what changed your mind about sending it to CFD? Courcelles (talk) 21:02, 10 January 2018 (UTC)
- Oh, I did CFD it! Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2018 January 6 The way I see it there are people willing to building the whole thing, which is fine, as long as it is done correctly. --Tone 21:10, 10 January 2018 (UTC)
- Nice. I can help create this as I have time. Courcelles (talk) 21:22, 10 January 2018 (UTC)

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.
Recent changes
- Bureaucrats on Wikimedia wikis where the Translate extension is installed can now add and remove the translation administrator permission by default. Administrators of wikis where this extension is enabled can add and remove this permission to or from themselves. Wikis that used a different configuration before have not changed. [1]
- There is a new Discourse test support channel for Wikimedia developers. You can ask questions or answer others questions about MediaWiki and Wikimedia software development. [2]
Problems
- Last week's MediaWiki update was rolled back. This was because of a bug that changed non-ASCII characters when a page was edited. [3][4]
Changes later this week
- The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 16 January. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 17 January. It will be on all wikis from 18 January (calendar).
Meetings
- You can join the next meeting with the Editing team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. The meeting will be on 16 January at 19:30 (UTC). See how to join.
- You can join the technical advice meeting on IRC. During the meeting, volunteer developers can ask for advice. The meeting will be on 17 January at 16:00 (UTC). See how to join.
Future changes
- A few hundred wikis with less than ten high-priority errors in Linter categories will switch to use the Remex parsing library. This is to replace Tidy. It will happen on 31 January. Other wikis will be recommended to switch soon when they have fixed the errors that must be fixed. Tidy will be removed in the middle of 2018. [5][6]
