If you have come here to change my opinion, be ready to also change yours.

Saw the drama unfolding on AN, figured I'd rather just take a break until someone solves it. C-ya in a week.

Redact

This is just a heads up that I redacted the word "clearly" in the Men's Right's movement log here. It was brought up in the ANI as the two admins involved had an objection to it as insulting and I didn't recall much opposition by you to their argument about how they perceived the word so I didn't feel it's be controversial to redact it.--v/r - T P 18:46, 26 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think there was any discussion at ANI about my comment on the log there; I believe it was only about my comment on User talk:Pudeo. The suggestion from Bwilkins that my words there were "insulting" was repeatedly and strongly rejected by myself and a few others. As for the wording on the Article probation page, I have no objection to removing the word "clearly" there (written in a slightly different context) if KC and Bwilkins don't want the constant reminder of their assumption of bad faith. However, if you do so, I'd prefer you just remove the word rather than replace it with the {{redacted}} template, which gives the impression that I said something far less innocuous than what I said and encourages people to find out what the "offending" remark was. -- tariqabjotu 21:49, 26 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion

Why have you deleted the page "Tobin Koshy"? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tobinkoshy (talk • contribs) 09:07, 11 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

in spite of the message...

unfortunately, i do not have IRC access at the moment.

when using the editcount tool from hewiki, we see the count and the diagram, but at the top of the page there is some script error report: Warning: syntax error, unexpected '=' in Unknown on line 33 in /data/project/xtools/public_html/phptemp/PHPtemp.php on line 75 Warning: array_merge(): Argument #2 is not an array in /data/project/xtools/public_html/phptemp/PHPtemp.php on line 75 Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /data/project/xtools/public_html/phptemp/PHPtemp.php on line 79 Warning: syntax error, unexpected '=' in Unknown on line 33 in /data/project/xtools/public_html/phptemp/PHPtemp.php on line 75 Warning: array_merge(): Argument #2 is not an array in /data/project/xtools/public_html/phptemp/PHPtemp.php on line 75 Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /data/project/xtools/public_html/phptemp/PHPtemp.php on line 79 דוד שי - {#tool#} - X!'s tools

I'm on a road trip right now, I can't look at this until at least the 20th.--v/r - T P 17:40, 14 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

hmmm.... is there anyone else that can look at it? is the code available (i assume it is - the question is really "where"...).

worst comes to worst, it can wait - after all, the tool itself works, error message and all.

It looks like the TPL file got damaged. I'll see it I can fix it in the next week.—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 12:07, 15 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

X tools fixes

I'm saluting to you, soldier! <o How can I fix some bugs in X's tools at tool labs? Is there a repo anywhere (preferrably git/gerrit)? — Wizardist ^{t +c} 11:14, 15 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No. The repo is not setup. As the lead maintainer of the code, I will be happy to address the bugs for you.—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 11:58, 15 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, the bug itself: DB names and site codes have a very small but a very significant difference - DBs come with underscores (_), and site codes come with hyphens (-). This issue is not covered in the tools thus having such links as be_x_old.wikipedia.org, bat_smg.wikipedia.org, Chinese ones, etc. — Wizardist ^{t +c} 15:37, 15 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
