The question mark in the title

Hi! I don't know, maybe someone already have written about this bug. My list of articles -- link. Click on the №5 (at this moment) article "R U Mine?". It's reffer to http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/R_U_Mine, but must to http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/R_U_Mine%3F. Correct, please --Morganvolter (talk) 14:08, 26 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page stalker) (tl;dr: there's an easy fix that TParis can implement.) That's because the question mark in the title is being parsed by Mediawiki to be the start of a ?-based argument (for example, ?action=edit), instead of as part of the article title. Just run urlencode on the links before printing them. Cheers, Theopolisme (talk) 14:15, 26 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You are a Golden Editor!

Good as gold!

Hi, TParis. During your time here, you've done a lot of good and served quite well as one of our more respected administrators. You've pitched in at various places and been a credit to the community. However, because today is Memorial Day, I've taken the unusual step of also considering your off-wiki actions in presenting you with the Golden Editor Award. As a fellow American, I would like to thank you for your service in the Air Force, which in my opinion is a whole lot more meaningful than your service here. v/r -- AutomaticStrikeout ? 13:57, 27 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks a bunch!--v/r - T P 20:02, 28 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Happy memorial day TP

-dainomite is wishing you a Happy Memorial Day! On this day, we recognize our fellow countrymen who have fought our nation's battles for the past several hundred years, protecting our freedom and safety. We remember those who paid the ultimate price and we support those who continue to willingly sacrifice their safety for the sake of their country. Happy Memorial Day!

Share this message by adding {{subst:Memorial Day}} to a fellow American's talk page.

Thanks. I know this day is probably a lot closer to home for you than me because of your career field in relation to mine so a happy memorial day to you as well and thank God for all of the Security Forces.--v/r - T P 20:02, 28 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No problem TP, thank you. We had a ceremony in our squadron for one of our squadron members who was killed in Iraq the summer of 2009. But unfortunately I had to work over the weekend to allow some of our newer guys to go through some training. *feigns a "yay" for excitement* hah. Anywho, take care. — -dainomite 03:10, 29 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Labs, again

I set up a project for the tools. If you create an account on Wikitech, I can add you to it, and then we can begin migrating some of it to labs and get it ready.—cyberpower ^Chat_{Limited Access} 13:07, 13 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You got Skype or IRC? I don't have a ton of time lately, but if you're willing to walk me through it over Skype or IRC to streamline the process then I will be sure to make time to meet with you.--v/r - T P 21:56, 28 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Or, alternatively, if you want to make a quick $50, I have some MediaWiki work that I need done on another Wiki that I just don't have a ton of time to do.--v/r - T P 21:56, 28 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'm on IRC right now. I'll be back in a bit. Just ping me in the meantime with /msg Cyberpower678 ping

—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 22:03, 28 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You're voiced on #xlabs ^connect. It's the new official Channel for X!'s tools.—cyberpower ^Chat_Offline 03:43, 31 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

automated edits

Hi TParis,

you wanted to add WP:AFCH to that tool. Any chance you add that? mabdul 05:17, 29 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

If I recall, someone brought this up about a year ago and the reason I couldn't do it was that I needed some kind of tag to read in a query. Like Twinkle has (TW) at the end of it's edits and TC was no longer supporting it.--v/r - T P 13:54, 29 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

That was me, I / we added a tag then as you can see in my contributions:

22:56, 27 May 2013 (diff | hist) . . (+58)‎ . . N Talk:Dot bzh ‎ (Placing WPAFC project banner (AFCH)) (current) 
22:56, 27 May 2013 (diff | hist) . . (+50)‎ . . N Dot bzh ‎ (Created via Articles for Creation (you can help!) (AFCH)) (current)

Regards, mabdul 15:01, 29 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, it's done.--v/r - T P 17:08, 29 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I hope you're doing ok. I'm simply a concerned editor who respects your work. - tucoxn\^talk 00:39, 1 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Toolserver

Hey, Tparis. Did your account expire on Toolserver, or would you happen to know why the edit counter and whatnot aren't working? Thanks! Kevin Rutherford (talk) 00:51, 1 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

He broke something. :p Actually it's being migrated to labs right now. I hope to have at least the edit counter running in a few hours. :-)—cyberpower ^Chat_Offline 03:22, 1 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

*waiting with hopeful look on face* Yngvadottir (talk) 16:21, 1 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've been working on it and I cant seem to figure out how badly I broke whatever I broke.--v/r - T P 16:22, 1 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Fear not. It is now live on labs located at http://tools.wmflabs.org/xtools/pcount/ —cyberpower ^Chat_Online 21:52, 1 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Nice work, and it's screaming fast. Is the omission of deleted edits on purpose?— alf laylah wa laylah (talk) 00:08, 2 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Heck yeah, it's nice and quick, like greased lightning.

— -dainomite 00:51, 2 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Question: So, in "my preferences" it says I have totaled 12,200 some odd edits, and the old edit counter said more than that ... now the edit counter says I only have 11,837 and no deleted edits. Is something wrong here, or have I just done less than I thought? Go Phightins! 01:28, 2 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

WMF Labs is still getting set up and right now we dont have access to deleted edits. It will display correctly soon.--v/r - T P 14:50, 2 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

On a related note

TP, would you (or maybe another admin stalker?) mind editting Template:User edits and adding the new URL so the edit counter userbox works again? I would if I could but it's under full protection. — -dainomite 00:45, 2 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

done.--v/r - T P 14:49, 2 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

History deletion
