Pisote

Perhaps Pisote is more of an alternative spelling for Pizote than a misspelling, but we need to reconcile that these two redirects currently point to different articles. Both seem to refer specifically to White-nosed coati, as the lede says for Pizote at least. Either way, it doesn't seem like these two redirects should point to different articles. The ledes should be updated accordingly. Mdewman6 (talk) 02:59, 10 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The Merriam-Webster page I linked to says that a pisote is a coati, which it defines as one of various species. I don't know if they were being imprecise, or if the pizote spelling is used in reference to only one species or for others too. I don't think it matters if the redirects point to different targets if they do indeed have different usages, especially since each of them averages fewer than one page view per day. I don't care either way, so feel free to make whatever changes you'd like (as long as they're not classified as misspellings). MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 05:29, 10 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Based on google searching, it looks like both spellings are used in Central America to refer to the coati native there, which is the white-nosed coati specifically. So not unreasonable that an attempt at a dictionary definition would simply say "coati" since this is what locals in the native range of the white-nosed coati would call it in English, given that it's the only species present. Certainly this seems to be true for the 'pizote' spelling, and I can't imagine the same word spelled with an s would purposely be meant to refer to coatis more broadly, with the z spelling referring to a specific species. As to which spelling is "correct" or has etymological precedent, I am not sure. So, I am going to retarget pisote to white-nosed coati to match pizote and categorize as an alternative spelling.

@Mandarax, could you please help in finding what the problem is with journal citation in Sanaullah Bhat? ─ The Aafī (talk) 15:04, 23 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Have you already fixed it? I don't see a problem. MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 16:56, 23 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

If you try to see the article in preview, you'll get to see "One or more {{cite journal}} templates have maintenance messages". I don't know what that means. ─ The Aafī (talk) 17:23, 23 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, a maintenance message. This was not anything that a reader would notice. I fixed it by using the correct dash (en dash) in the date range. For future reference, hidden categories help decipher what the cryptic notice is about. If you don't see them, you can enable their display at your preferences, Appearance tab, under "Advanced options": select "Show hidden categories". In this case, the category was Category:CS1 maint: date format. MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 18:48, 23 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I looked, but gave up after searching for a long time. I assume it's some <tag> without a corresponding </tag>, but the page is too complicated for me to find the error. However, Jonesey95, I've seen you fixing litterally millions of similar errors; maybe you have a tool or are just keenly perceptive. Could you please take a look at meta:Deoband Community Wikimedia and fix the "Missing end tag" error? MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 20:10, 15 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed. There was some ending bold markup that was missing starting markup, so I removed it. – Jonesey95 (talk) 01:58, 16 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Linked misspellings

Hello. I work through new entries in Wikipedia:Database reports/Linked misspellings and spotted that most of today's are linked from your sandbox, so I wondered if we might be duplicating each other's work. I usually check the entries which haven't appeared before. I look at all occurrences rather than just links but sometimes work a few days in arrears. I'm happy to carry on or to leave this to you if we'd be tripping over each other. Alternatively, one of us could divert to User:Certes/Misspellings which is a backlog of entries I missed when I was busy off-wiki for a few weeks. Certes (talk) 22:26, 25 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I've been working on those for quite a few years. Actually, not most, but all of them should be in that sandbox (unless you're seeing a cached version from a previous day), because it's the same database report, automatically reformatted in a form that's more useful for me. I generally go through the list every day and fix all of the linked occurrences (except for a few that I skip for various reasons), and almost never check out any unlinked ones. So it looks like we're not tripping over each other. I'd seen you mention your page before, and I sometimes use it. It's very helpful in finding unlinked misspellings.

Galium hardhamiae

ITIS is wrong if it implies that the correct spelling is "hardhamae". I've now explained why this must be corrected to "hardhamiae" at Galium hardhamiae § Taxonomy, which I should have done when I moved the article. Note that Tropicos. which is usually reliable on taxonomy, also has the corrected spelling here. (Actually, if you follow through the major taxonomic databases in the taxonbar, you'll see that ITIS is the one out of line.) Peter coxhead (talk) 11:14, 22 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This could not possibly matter to me less. I just don't think that the redirect, which uses the same spelling that one of the most authoritative taxonomic sources does, should be classified as a misspelling, but rather as an alternative spelling or former name.

I have no opinion on the matter. I've never read any of the article, and I've made only one edit to it in the last ten months, and only three ever, all of them very minor (like typo fixing). You've made more than sixty, so you're in a much better position to decide.

Quick note

Please note in greyhound racing, a male is officially a dog and a female is officially a bitch, so I had to revert one of your edits. Many thanks. ApricotFoot (talk) 08:44, 24 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, ApricotFoot, for letting me know. I had no idea. Is it standard in dog articles to link it as [[Male|Dog]]? I think it would be much more useful to link as [[Dog#Terminology|Dog]], where this odd convention is explained. Although it's still a little fuzzy for me. Dog#Terminology says "dog" refers to "the species (or subspecies) as a whole, also any male member of the same". So a male dog would be called a "dog", but it looks like its sex would still be referred to as "male". Unfortunately, Template:Infobox greyhound has no documentation.

Stranded in the rain

I assume you are not among them? Those poor people. Drmies (talk) 22:17, 3 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Right, I'm not there. (It did rain one year that I went, and it was a super-muddy mess, but nothing like this.) I watched an extensive piece of drone footage, and the flooding looked horrible, but the truly remarkable thing was the near-complete absence of people, bicycles, and mutant vehicles. The playa had turned into a ghost town. I can sympathize with all of those burners trapped in their shelters. And it's even worse than many people realize – according to ~~Twitter~~ X, they've got an Ebola outbreak!!! This morning, the Man was scheduled to burn tonight at 9:30 Pacific time, but the latest update no longer provides an estimate for when the Man and Temple burns may happen. Anyone interested should be able to watch whatever's happening live at https://burningman.org/live-webcast/ . Right now, there's a huge rainbow. Thanks for the note. MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 23:13, 3 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Ebola?? Holy moly. Thx for the update. I guess it's been a while since you went? I'll try to check in in a couple of hours--though chances are all of Alabama, including me, will be asleep at that time, happily intoxicated after wins by Alabama and Auburn. But yeah, I feel bad for all the folks out there. It's so easy to laugh at people who do different things from what many others do, and so cheap. Drmies (talk) 01:33, 4 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Someone had even taken a screenshot of a news story reporting that the Ebola thing was a hoax, and altered it to say that yes, there's an Ebola outbreak on the playa. Sorry if anybody took me seriously, but I thought the reference to "X" plus the three exclamation marks would be sufficient. I'm not sure if the pre-Elon Twitter would've done anything about such a hoax, but now anything goes. Yeah, it's been a while since I attended. I mentioned the little rain/mud I experienced, but the main environmental problems every year (until now) are the heat and especially the frequent, devastating, dust storms. I guess an optimist would say that there won't be any dust storms while it's all muddy. MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 02:01, 4 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm were those exclamation marks extra fat? Gotcha. I saw a few dust references on the page you linked, yes. I'm taking a break from deleting weird pages created by someone who, I think, set up an imaginary Hangul course for themselves. So many lonely people on Wikipedia. Drmies (talk) 02:16, 4 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, I feel like I accomplished something. :) Later, Mandarax! Drmies (talk) 02:25, 4 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your adminwork, congrats on your team victories, and don't get too drunk. There's been an official update. 1) The Man burn is tomorrow at 9 pm. 2) The Temple burn is three hours later. That's 2 am in Alabama, but don't worry if you miss it. The Temple burn doesn't have fireworks like the Man burn. 3) "The online rumors of transmissible illnesses in Black Rock City are unfounded and untrue." MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 02:46, 4 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Update: it is not the Temple (Temple of the Heart) that's scheduled to burn at midnight (Pacific time), but instead the Chapel of Babel. The Temple burn is scheduled for Tuesday at 8 pm, which follows the usual practice of happening the day after the Man burn. Sorry for misinforming.

DYK spelling

I see here you made a comment about the spelling meter vs metre. Must the DYK hooks use US spellings, or can they be use any spelling dialect? It is spelt "metre" in New Zealand. Panamitsu (talk) ^{Please ping on reply} 05:48, 10 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Well, you had spelled it "meter" (twice). The hooks should use whichever spelling is appropriate (which is usually "metre"). I had added a {{Convert}}, figuring that its default spelling was correct here, then I noticed that you had also used the other spelling in the caption, so I added a conversion parameter to make it consistent with what appeared to be your preferred spelling. I've now changed it in both places. MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 06:27, 10 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
