It had come as far as it could with the creating editor, so I trusted it at AFC to the community. Fiddle Faddle 15:08, 2 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Old obscure edits/self-revert |abbreviation infobox param

Hi. I've been looking at infobox formatting issues recently and came across a few pages that used the Template:Infobox government agency that were reporting an invalid parameter: specifically "|abbreviation =". The first one I saw was Animal Quarantine Department where I noticed you had cleared the same parameter in May of 2018 (yeah, so 2 years ago...I know), but then you self-reverted the edit. I then saw the same thing on Aqaba Special Economic Zone Authority with the same edit pattern from you. So, since I'm sure you remember these obscure/random edits from two years ago with perfect clarity, do you recall anything about this? Am I missing some parameter buried in the docs or maybe a different language/project wiki? Any information you might recall would be welcome - I'm going to hold off "fixing" these for now. Sorry for the very random question. Lawaspirant5580 (talk) 20:01, 17 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Lawaspirant5580, I don't remember anything about this. My edit history that day shows I did this six times. Perhaps I saw this and decided to leave it alone in case it was added per that request. MB 20:18, 17 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Road disambiguation pages

Hi MB,

Thank you for the Hyde Park Gate disambiguation page to be merged into the Hyde Park Gate page. In addition, I had selected only the pages with blue links that match the disambiguation pages on Essex Road, Chancery Lane and Brompton Road.

Changes to the SuperSport page

Hi MB,

I'm a blocked/banned user who recently got news about SuperSport getting a makeover from September 1. What this means is there will be no SuperSport 1-12 but something like SuperSport Premier League or SuperSport F1. I'm notifying you so you won't revert any edits in the name of vandalism. I'm a customer of DStv, mind (and don't know about you), and some SuperSport channels also broadcasts on GOtv in certain African countries. Lastly, getting sources for whatever I type in/on this is just not online unless maybe you help me. Thanks for understanding and can't wait for your reply! Adios! 41.210.9.9 (talk) 15:38, 27 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Small text

Frietjes, I'm sure you know that there should be no WP:SMALL in infoboxes. I remove it manually when I find it. What about adding this as something for INDENT? It would sure speed things up at times. I assume it could be on only with a parameter set so it wouldn't affect any other users that didn't want this function. I think all the variations are the templates small, smaller, midsize, resize as well as the html <small>. MB 03:32, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I could add this as part of indent, or I could create a second script. I can also make the removal interactive (where it asks you for each one). if you provide some examples where you removed small tags, resizing, etc., I can implement something. Frietjes (talk) 13:43, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Frietjes, If it were part of indent it would save a step. I don't see a reason for it to be interactive - unless you are aware of some cases where small is valid inside an infobox. Examples: [1],[2], [3], [4]. As always, thanks for all your help. MB 14:15, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
okay, I probably won't get to this until tomorrow, but it shouldn't be that hard to implement. by the way, looks like you left an extra * in the subscribers in the Phil Lester article. Frietjes (talk) 14:19, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
it was easier than I expected. to activate this feature just do this and make sure it is _above_ the loading of the script. Frietjes (talk) 14:50, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

AFD request

Since I've seen you around in other mall AFDs, would you mind looking at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Methuen Mall too? I expanded this one significantly (and merged it with another article) after the AFD was initiated and would like to form a greater consensus on the quality of my improvements.

TenPoundHammer, I already said keep at that AFD - the only other one so far. MB 02:48, 2 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the infobox edit on Oasia Hotel Downtown

Hi MB, for my own understanding there is no need to insert a "frameless" or "center" command? When inserting logo images in inbox? Edvarcl (talk)
