Huggle rollback requirement
I don't think there's any point in maintaining a false sense of security. If the user is abusive, he should be blocked. Someone is going to make that edit to Huggle themselves even if I did not publish it. PirateSmackK says he's an intermediate C programmer. I suppose we can tell him to stop using Huggle and block him if he continues. Either way, there's no point in having Huggle require a flag that is actually not needed. Maybe Wikipedia should have an edit cap for ordinary users? --Ysangkok (talk) 17:14, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
- Well, I have to agree on most of what you're saying. The question remaining is, since the only purpose rollback serves is to speed up (and presumably lighten server load) for the actual rollbacking, which is a little slower if it is emulated, do we really need WP:RFP/R at all? I think I'll bring this up over there. decltype (talk) 18:13, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.
P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- ForteTuba (talk) 14:44, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
- Hehe, thank you, the list itself is extremely interesting, if nothing else. Certainly not what I had expected :) decltype (talk) 14:49, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

<nowiki> vs {{tl}}
Hi there. I noticed you were using <nowiki> on WT:CSD to illustrate templates in text without transcluding them. I don't know if you knew, but there are some templates to make this easier. {{tl}} can be used (with {{tl|template}}
) to refer to a template (and link to it). {{tlx}} allows adding parameters to that (i.e. {{tlx|template|parameter1|parameter2}}
), {{tls}} creates the link and adds subst: before it (i.e. {{tls|template}}
will create {{subst:template}}). Just a tip that might come in handy, I have found it to be much easier than to have to write <nowiki> all the time and it allows people to click the link to view the template. Regards SoWhy 10:50, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
- Yeah, I knew about {{tl}}, but I don't write about templates very often, so I usually forget. Agree that it is much more practical. Thanks. decltype (talk) 10:55, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
