WikiCup 2011 March newsletter

We are half way through round two of the WikiCup, which will end on 28 April. Of the 64 current contestants, 32 will make it through to the next round; the two highest in each pool, and the 16 next highest scorers. At the time of writing, our current overall leader is Hurricanehink (submissions) with 231 points, who leads Pool H. Piotrus (submissions) (Pool G) also has over 200 points, while 9 others (three of whom are in Pool D) have over 100 points. Remember that certain content (specifically, articles/portals included in at least 20 Wikipedias as of 31 December 2010 or articles which are considered "vital") is worth double points if promoted to good or featured status, or if it appears on the main page in the Did You Know column. There were some articles last round which were eligible for double points, but which were not claimed for. For more details, see Wikipedia:WikiCup/Scoring.

A running total of claims can be seen here. However, numerous competitors are yet to score at all- please remember to submit content soon after it is promoted, so that the judges are able to review entries. The number of points that will be needed to reach round three is not clear- everyone needs to get their entries in now to guarantee their places! If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, and you hope to get it promoted before the end of the round, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAC, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which could otherwise be caused by the Cup. As ever, questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges are reachable on their talk pages, or by email. Good luck! If you wish to start receiving or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send. J Milburn and The ed17 01:13, 1 April 2011 (UTC)

GOCE drive newsletter

Guild of Copy Editors March 2011 backlog elimination drive report Greetings from the Guild of Copy Editors March 2011 Backlog elimination drive. Thank you for participating in the March 2011 drive! This newsletter summarizes the March drive and other recent events. Participation GOCE March 2011 backlog elimination drive progress graphs There were 99 signups for the drive; of these, 70 participated. Interest was high mainly due to a link to our event from the Watchlist page. We had a record-breaking 84 articles listed on the Requests page in March; 11 of these have been promoted to Good article status so far. Several of our recent efforts have received Featured Article status as well, and the GOCE is becoming a solid resource for the Wikipedia community. Many thanks to editors who have been helping out at the Requests page and by copy editing articles from the backlog. Progress report Remarkable progress was made in reducing the backlog this month, as we now have fewer than 500 articles remaining from 2009. We are well under the 4,000-article mark for the total number remaining in the queue. Since our backlog drives began in May 2010 with 8,323 articles, we have cleared more than 53% of the backlog. A complete list of results and barnstars awarded can be found here. Barnstars will be distributed over the next week. If you enjoyed participating in our event, you may also like to join the Wikification drives, which are held on alternate months to our drives. Their April drive has started. New coodinators On March 21, SMasters appointed Chaosdruid (talk) and Torchiest (talk) as Guild coordinators to serve in place of The Utahraptor, who recently stepped down. Please feel free to contact any coordinator if you have any questions or need assistance. Your drive coordinators – S Masters (talk), Diannaa (Talk) and Tea with toast (Talk)

Template:Lang-he-n

Hi

I see you have changed {{Lang-he-n}} back [1]. Since this template is intended for fixing Hebrew text on Internet Explorer, it should not affect users of other browsers. With your revert, it does again.

I have carefully set my browser to using a serif Hebrew font, but now, text in {{Lang-he-n}} disrupts my browser settings and appears in Microsoft Sans Serif, a font I do not like at all.

I understand that Kwami's merger of {{Lang-he-n}} into {{lang|he}} was not a good idea. But how about the following:

1. Create a new class="script-hebrew-n" in {{Lang-he-n}}:

<span dir="rtl" class="script-hebrew-n" font-size:125%;' lang="he" xml:lang="he">{{{1}}}</span>‎{{#if:{{{lit|}}}|, ''[[literal translation|lit.]]'' {{{lit}}}}}

2. Move the explicit font definitions from {{Lang-he-n}} to MediaWiki:Common.css/WinFixes.css:

.script-hebrew-n {
    font-family:"SBL Hebrew", david, narkisim, "Microsoft Sans Serif";
}

Like this, nothing changes for Internet Explorer users, but users of other browsers no longer suffer from this Internet Explorer fix. -- machᵗᵃˡᵏ👍 11:54, 6 April 2011 (UTC)

I see now that the problem is not only IE, but also Firefox on Mac OS X. I have filed a bug for Firefox: Bug 648248 - Buggy Hebrew fallback font on Mac OS X (you might want to subscribe/comment/rate this bug so it gets more importance and will be fixed sooner).

As far as I can see, Safari on Mac OS X and Chrome on Mac OS X have a correct display of Hebrew text. Is this correct? Apart from Windows browsers and Firefox on Mac OS X, are other browsers affected as well?

In the future, when the problem of Firefox on Mac OS X is solved, the explicit font specifications should be moved to MediaWiki:Common.css/WinFixes.css so they no longer adversely affect other users (as they keep doing now).

In the meantime, I beg you to please reinstall the class="hebrew-script" in {{Lang-he-n}}. This class, which is already present in {{script/Hebrew}} will allow users to fix the incoherent display of Hebrew text at least for themselves, while no general fix is possible. Or much better yet, delete the font list from {{Lang-he-n}} and instead include {{script/Hebrew}} within {{Lang-he-n}}!

I do not understand why {{Lang-he-n}} and {{script/Hebrew}} have different font lists. What is the reason for that? It just leads to incoherent display of Hebrew text, which just looks plain awful. This incoherence is especially striking all four fonts of {{Lang-he-n}} reoccur in {{script/Hebrew}}, and the first three fonts in both templates are identical! So why then are the font lists different? If there is no particular reason, then I strongly recommend that the font lists be harmonized so that there no longer is inconsistent display of Hebrew text. The best thing to do would be transcluding {{script/Hebrew}} into {{Lang-he-n}}, so the font list is only configured in one place.

An illustration for the current inconsistency of Hebrew text display:

{{lang-he-n}}	Hebrew: בֵּית‎‎	{{lang-he-n|בֵּית}}
{{script/Hebrew}}	בֵּית	{{script/Hebrew|בֵּית}}
no markup	בֵּית	בֵּית

On Firefox on Mac OS X, this has three different fonts, Microsoft Sans Serif, Times New Roman and the buggy font Arial Hebrew:

With regard to the font list in {{script/Hebrew}}, I don't think DejaVu Sans should precede Microsoft Sans Serif and Lucida Grande, since it is less complete (I don't know about David, Narkisim, Ezra SIL SR or FrankRuehl). -- machᵗᵃˡᵏ👍 14:08, 7 April 2011 (UTC)

Font size is not an issue here. {{Lang-he-n}} and {{script/Hebrew}} specify exactly the same font size.

The issue is that Hebrew text display is inconsistent. This is because {{lang-he-n}} does not use the same font list like {{script/Hebrew}}. The best way to fix this is by changing {{lang-he-n}} so it no longer defines any fonts by itself, but uses the fonts from {{script/Hebrew}}. I think that in this case, transclusion is clearly preferrable. By transcluding {{script/Hebrew}} within {{lang-he-n}}, we minimize the risk of future inconsistent Hebrew display. For the transclusion, {{lang-he-n}} has to be changed to the following:

[[Hebrew language|Hebrew]]: {{script/Hebrew|{{{1}}}}}{{#if:{{{lit|}}}|, ''[[literal translation|lit.]]'' {{{lit}}}}}<includeonly>[[Category:Articles containing Hebrew language text]]</includeonly>‎<noinclude>{{pp-template|small=yes}} {{doc}} {{merge|Template:Lang-he}} </noinclude>

I don't know about the display on MSIE. MSIE's inability to correctly choose an appropriate font is well known though. What I didn't know before is that Firefox falls back to a buggy font. -- machᵗᵃˡᵏ👍 15:14, 7 April 2011 (UTC)

I have now taken the liberty of testing the code I have proposed for {{lang-he-n}} on a template that is no longer used anywhere: {{CYchar}}.

As far as I can see, it works perfectly fine, and it solves the inconsistency of Hebrew text:

Template:CYchar	{{CYchar|בְּרֵאשִׁית, בָּרָא אֱלֹהִים, אֵת הַשָּׁמַיִם, וְאֵת הָאָרֶץ.}}
בְּרֵאשִׁית, בָּרָא אֱלֹהִים, אֵת הַשָּׁמַיִם, וְאֵת הָאָרֶץ.‎	{{script/Hebrew|בְּרֵאשִׁית, בָּרָא אֱלֹהִים, אֵת הַשָּׁמַיִם, וְאֵת הָאָרֶץ.}}

Please do any testing on {{CYchar}} as you please and then copy the code to {{lang-he-n}}. I cannot do this on my own because I am no administrator. It would be great if the display of Hebrew text were no longer as inconsistent as it currently is. -- machᵗᵃˡᵏ👍 17:18, 7 April 2011 (UTC)

If you do not feel comfortable about creating a template transclusion, I can ask Kwami to do it. I hope you have no objections at the proposed change?? It is really an improvement because it makes {{lang-he-n}} use the same fonts as {{script/Hebrew}}, so Hebrew text is no longer displayed inconsistently. -- machᵗᵃˡᵏ👍 16:17, 8 April 2011 (UTC)

It looks like there is progress on the Firefox Bug 648248 - Buggy Hebrew fallback font on Mac OS X! Jonathan Kew has taken an interest in it; I have tried creating a patch. I have proposed the following three fonts as new default fallback fonts for Hebrew text: Lucida Grande, Times New Roman, and Courier New. Do you think these fonts are OK? -- machᵗᵃˡᵏ👍 16:35, 8 April 2011 (UTC)

Wilhelma, Palestine

Hi, Ynhockey. I am here because I see on the history of several places such as Sarona and HaKirya you have edited. I have been editing some place names in Israel as well and had a concern about Wilhelma, which I put on the talk page and I have communicated the same concerns with the original author on our talk pages. He (or she) disagrees with my thinking on this and I was looking for another opinion. When you find time, will you take a look at the talk page at Wilhelma, Palestine and comment if you are so moved? Thank you. Snakeswithfeet (talk) 16:05, 8 April 2011 (UTC)

Multiple IPs removing sourced content from 30 St Mary Axe without explanation

Hi Ynhockey,

A month ago you watchlisted Geography of Israel since multiple IPs were changing measurements without explanation. That article's been fine.

However, 30 St Mary Axe (history) has had multiple IPs removing its sourced "erotic" nicknames with no explanation on Oct 21, Dec 9, Mar 16, 22, Apr 8, 14, and 21. On one of my reverts, my edit summary noted "rv removal without explanation again. All are reliable sources (BBC, Architectural Record (whose June 2004 magazine back issue has an article on the building), and The Spectator". There's no discussion of the subject on the article's talk page and 2 others besides me have reverted the removal over the months, which I just now realized has been going on since last year. Would you semi-protect the article for a period, should I request it from RFPP, or would you suggest another idea? MeekSaffron (talk) 20:49, 21 April 2011 (UTC)
