Where has my message gone? My talkpage is very active, so please check the archives. Put your user name or article name into this box, and 'search'-----→
I'm gonna strip the AFC page - remove the {{AFC submission...}} and the <!-- comment> stuff and the auto-reference part, and see what is left, and if it looks anything like an article
[17:18] <@Chzz> also, gonna be able to advise people if they ONLY put refs UNDER ==References==
[17:18] <@Chzz> but...yeah; that is on the long to-do-list
[17:19] <@Chzz> am just trying to get less "false positives", but miss less who do need ref-help
[17:19] <@Chzz> am also gonna check number-of-edits, and not give any help on e.g. >50 edits
[17:19] <@Chzz> and I'm gonna fix the sandbox-cleaner so it clears more 'sandbox' pages, in tutorials and talks
[17:19] <@Chzz> and fix the stalkbot up
[17:19] <@Chzz> and add another stalkbot that actually checks the diff
[17:20] <@Chzz> (which thus becomes as powerful as 'edit filter')
[17:20] <@Chzz> then I just need to install the "laser beam" and we're good to go
[03:31] <Shearonink> 1) can you crop the images into A)Each individual RAISIN panel B) Both RAISIN panels
-> Commons
[03:33] <Chzz> you don't want the "Buena Vista" then?
[03:33] <Shearonink> no
[03:33] <Chzz> just the 2x "Raison" rite?
[03:34] <Shearonink> yes
[03:34] <Chzz> c-c-c-combo, and split into two
[03:34] <Chzz> and looking good at thumb size
[03:34] <Chzz> do you like it 'straightened' - like I did on that demo?
[03:34] <Chzz> ie I 'distorted' the pic, to make it 'straight'
[03:34] <Shearonink> yes
[03:34] <Chzz> yep, ok
[03:35] <Shearonink> yes I noticed it was crokked in the version gene upcloaded
[03:35] <Chzz> and I'll fiddle with the colour/light balance, to make it as clear as poss without it looking bizarre
I also work for Wikipedia, and had a rather scary email recently: "Before you edit a banner or update some code, just remember that if our readership was a country it would be the 3rd largest country in the world."
SELECT SUM(single) FROM (select cl_sortkey,COUNT(*) as single from categorylinks LEFT JOIN recentchanges ON cl_sortkey=rc_user_text where rc_timestamp>"201110XX202500" AND cl_to="Wikipedia_user_talk_pages_of_shared_IP_addresses" GROUP BY cl_sortkey HAVING cl_sortkey RLIKE "^[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}$") as dummy; XX=day
Note: 17:02, 30 October 2011 (UTC) [16:57] <Chzz> I'm gonna do something, later; I'm gonna start an election; for AWWDMBJAWGCAWAIFDSPBATDMTAD - I'll make it look like an RFA-type page; I will nominate myself as "Person responsible for post-ironic humour"
Greatly appreciated; please ask, any time - I mean that; I'm not too good on 'watching' pages; I'm involved w/ too many things - so if you think I can help further with this, or any other matter, please do ask again right here. Best, Chzz ► 21:14, 8 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Invisible System
Chiz,
Although I do not understand fully Wikipedia, all journalists etc that cover my music have told me it should be on wikipedia. It is on itunes, it was up for World Music Awards 2010 Songlines, it has had major press coverage left right and centre and major radio play. The people involved are long established and known artists. I was in the world music charts etc etc
Thanks for creating the list at User:Chzz/feed. I had started looking for a couple manually, became convinced it was worth identifying them but a fair amount of work to do manually. I share your thought that we should not approach them in an automated way. Let me give it a bit of thought - one thing I might do is check them out and identify areas of interest. For example, the recent request User:ScienceRulz2012/Crizotinib is fairly specialized, so I tracked down a couple small cell cancer experts, here and here. If I had a list of specialists, we could use them for specific articles.
If they don't appear to be specialists, we might just ask them to help generally, but I'd like to write a custom message. --SPhilbrickT23:40, 8 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Please let me know if I can help with it; otherwise, I will leave that particular mission to you.
I am also working on the FEED/transclusion thingy; not ready yet, but the work-in-progess demo of the idea is in User:Chzz/Wikipedia:Requests for feedback. I'm hoping to get the demo in order during the next week, then showing others (especially you) to seek opinion, before making it live. I'm working on making it automatically transclude the past 'n' days, and noting the 'oldest outstanding requests' at the top, and other things. I will work to improve it, before making the suggestion (on the FEED talk page) ASAP. Chzz ► 23:59, 8 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Vertical alignment
Me again (shock). Now, I have this table: User:Trafford09/test-table, which I've created solely in order to force (so I hoped) each of the 5 rows to line up with each other, even though of course the text lines are single lines, whereas the symbols are more than one text-line's height.
Should the Table approach work? If so, how, and also how could I force gridlines to appear? (i.e. horiz. line after each row.)
Also, is there a better approach to using a table? I did try putting {{clear}} after each WP icon, but that gave me oodles of whitespace (which I know you don't like!). Ta muchly, Trafford09 (talk) 00:00, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Furthermore, do you know any way of storing a segment of html (e.g. [[Image:Updated DYK query.svg|Did You Know|{{#ifeq:{{{small|}}}|yes|10px|15px}}|]] ) in some placeholder like ®1, then using ®1 multiple times? Trafford09 (talk) 00:40, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Use |- for each new row, and || between columns; See here - I think that was your intention?
To put something many times, just make a subpage and transclude it - e.g. I just made User:Chzz/dykicon containing the code you gave above, so if I put {{User:Chzz/dykicon}} anywhere, from now on, it produces that icon, e.g. etc. Chzz ► 00:55, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Should be on IRC soon, but regarding the dates: I totally failed. MSGJ said to use #time... I can't believe I totally missed that route :(. Anywho, I'll keep working on the rest of the stuff soon. —fetch·comms16:48, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
