Help me!

This help request has been answered. If you need more help, you can ask another question on your talk page, contact the responding user(s) directly on their user talk page, or consider visiting the Teahouse.

I have been editing documents from "linked misspellings" page. Can you find which among the two words "lwow" and "lviv" is right?ie. i need to get the right word among the two words.

Please help me with...

Adithyak1997 (talk) 10:43, 18 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

That may depend on context and is best discussed on the relevant article's talk page. Our article on the town is at Lviv, but the other transliteration is also common. Huon (talk) 11:43, 18 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for March 19

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Comic Relief, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Greg Davis. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Changing categories

Hello, I saw that you changed quite a few categorizations from "Category:Action adventure films" to "Category:Action-adventure films". If you check the latter category, you'll find that it says it should be empty. If you think the category should be renamed to the hyphenated name, please make use of WP:CFD instead of changing the categorization manually. Huon (talk) 12:41, 19 March 2017 (UTC) Sorry for such a problem caused from my side.117.194.182.217 (talk) 12:47, 19 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Teahouse talkback: You've got messages!

Hello, Adithyak1997. Your question has been answered at the Teahouse Q&A board. Feel free to reply there!

Your request at Wikipedia:Requests for page protection

I removed your request [1] for an edit to User talk:Malcolmxl5/Archive 3.

It's another user's talk page so it really isn't your place to change anything on it or request changes to it. See WP:TALKO
It is inactive as it is an archive, so there is little point in cleaning it up. Note the comment This is an archive of past discussions. Do not edit the contents of this page. at the top of the page.
It's not just an archive, it's an 8-year-old archive so it's really not worth doing anything about it.
If the extra colon really is a problem then just follow the instructions on user:Malcolmxl5's talk page for what to do if his talk page is protected, as it currently is. There is a link to User talk:Malcolmxl5/Unprotected talk page where you will be able to leave a message. Meters (talk) 01:06, 23 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Just in case you didn't realize it, I wasn't trying to give you a hard time. I was just letting you know why I removed your request. Thanks for cleaning stuff up. Meters (talk) 23:30, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I understood the solution that you mentioned. Since he does not reply to such silly errors, i am not mentioning in his talk page. Thanks for replyingAdithyak1997 (talk) 05:47, 25 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Draft

Could you take a look at the sources of Draft:Aravind V? Thanks. L293D (☎ • ✎) 13:22, 6 June 2018 (UTC) First of all, please check this link to know about the Indywood award.http://www.indywood.co.in/eventslocation The sources in malayalam told about the viral spread of his poster through FB and whatsapp which was very much popular. I actually cannot decide whether the document is good for wikipedia since I haven't reviewed anything yet. It actually needs to be decided by some other members of the group I think.

Help me!

This help request has been answered. If you need more help, you can ask another question on your talk page, contact the responding user(s) directly on their user talk page, or consider visiting the Teahouse.

I would like to know the method by which I can resolve the problem Articles which use infobox templates with no data rows.

Adithyak1997 (talk) 11:04, 22 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Infoboxes are optional. If an article has an infobox where the required fields cannot be filled in (option 1), then there is always the option (2) of removing it or (3) replacing it with a different infobox template for which the parameters can be filled in. — jmcgnh^{(talk) (contribs)} 14:05, 22 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

So the condition for removing a page from that category is that all the required fields must have some value. Am I right? Adithyak1997 (talk) 14:12, 22 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It's hard to know what you mean; you didn't mention a category before.

No, some fields in some infoboxes are optional and can be left blank or omitted entirely. The template documentation for the specific infobox should indicate which parameters are optional and which parameters are dependent on other parameters. A few things to look out for: parameters left blank still need to have their equals sign, whitespace characters that are not actual 0x20 space characters may be seen by the software as part of a parameter name and give an "unknown parameter" error. — jmcgnh^{(talk) (contribs)} 20:55, 22 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Ok. Thanks for replying. Adithyak1997 (talk) 03:00, 23 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for being dense. I now see that you are talking about Category:Articles which use infobox templates with no data rows.

I looked at a couple of articles in that category and found it a bit mystifying - the category description says it is applied when an infobox template is used with NO parameters, not just missing parameters. In the cases I looked at, it seems the visible infobox template was calling another infobox template. Tracking down where the category membership is triggered ultimately eluded me. In the case of 11 Downing Street, one example I looked at, I suspect it has something to do with an embedded mapframe, since that template is also throwing a tracking category Category:Infobox mapframe without OSM relation ID on Wikidata. In the case of 1st Step to Heaven, the {{extra album cover}} (which, despite its name, calls the infobox module) looked like a suspect, but it has parameters, too.

Whether these cases are representative of what you were looking at, I can't say. It may be that you'll get better answers by asking at The Village Pump - Technical. — jmcgnh^{(talk) (contribs)} 05:31, 23 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Now that you've got me started on this, I keep looking for more information.

First, the talk page of the category has some discussion already that relates to your question. Category talk:Articles which use infobox templates with no data rows.

And the archived discusson at WP:Village pump (technical)/Archive 130#Category:Articles which use infobox templates with no data rows - how does an article get into this category? sheds a bit more light. Still, with over 60,000 pages in this maintenance category, there does not seem to be much priority for fixing it or for explaining how it might be fixed. — jmcgnh^{(talk) (contribs)} 05:50, 23 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding "user rights issue"

I had just read your discussion in Village pump (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_(policy)#Help_interpreting_policies) when I got an alert that a bot from another wiki (wish I'd grabbed a screenshot) had left a message for me on my Talk page. There was nothing new on my Talk page, but the alert still showed so I clicked the alert. It immediately change every page on Wikipedia.com to that insane font that was on the person's user page that you were asking about. Fortunately, logging out cleared it; when I logged in again, fonts were normal.

I guess my point is that person's user page might have been hit with the same weird bug/virus that came to me via alert, and also, is there somewhere to let somebody know that something weird is going on? Schazjmd (talk) 00:39, 29 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
