I am new to Wikipedia so I'm still learning the ropes. It's good to see a page for him as he and his siblings, as producer Ken Weiss has told me, "... have never been given the credit they deserve." Michael is my best friend; thus, I known him for many years and his background quite well. I will be staying with him in Nashville where he resides in August. He told me he has never been a member of the group "Truck" and has never heard of them. Another Mike Curtis I suppose. Michael has always gone by Michael Curtis, not Mike. So that I deleted. He did play with Gene Clark and the Byrds for a few years until Gene died. BTXT (talk) 21:15, 27 July 2023 (UTC)

Thank you for explaining your edits, and welcome to Wikipedia! I recommend explaining your edits in the edit summary next time, as it is easier to see when looking at the history. Koshchki123 (talk) 23:17, 27 July 2023 (UTC)

Tech News: 2023-46

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Recent changes

Problems

  • Last week, users who previously visited Meta-Wiki or Wikimedia Commons and then became logged out on those wikis could not log in again. The problem is now resolved. [5]
  • Last week, some pop-up dialogs and menus were shown with the wrong font size. The problem is now resolved. [6]

Changes later this week

  • The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 14 November. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 15 November. It will be on all wikis from 16 November (calendar).

Future changes

  • Reference Previews are coming to many wikis as a default feature. They are popups for references, similar to the PagePreviews feature. You can opt out of seeing them. If you are using the gadgets Reference Tooltips or Navigation Popups, you won’t see Reference Previews. Deployment is planned for November 22, 2023.
  • Canary (also known as heartbeat) events will be produced into Wikimedia event streams from December 11. Streams users are advised to filter out these events, by discarding all events where meta.domain == "canary". Updates to Pywikibot or wikimedia-streams will discard these events by default. [7]

Rollback

Hi Koshchki123. After reviewing your request, I have enabled rollback on your account. Please keep the following things in mind while using rollback:

  • Being granted rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle. It just adds a [Rollback] button next to a page's latest live revision - that's all. It does not grant you any additional "status" on Wikipedia, nor does it change how Wikipedia policies apply to you.
  • Rollback should be used to revert clear and unambiguous cases of vandalism only. Never use rollback to revert good faith edits.
  • Rollback should never be used to edit war, and it should never be used in a content-related dispute to restore the page to your preferred revision. If rollback is abused or used for this purpose or any other inappropriate purpose, the rights will be revoked.
  • Use common sense. If you're not sure about something, ask!

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into trouble or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! FASTILY 06:34, 15 November 2023 (UTC)

Phrase is unfamiliar

Hello, I have been cleaning up grammar on a page I think you manage, and I am absolutely stumped by the very poetic but unfamiliar phrase "in the hard of night." Is this a translation issue? Please advise. Creedweber (talk) 04:07, 21 November 2023 (UTC)

The article is Den mörka sanningen Creedweber (talk) 04:08, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
I am unsure what you mean, as I never have edited that article before. @Creedweber Koshchki123 (she/they) (talk) 04:14, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
was it not you that thanked me for my edits on the article? Creedweber (talk) 02:53, 22 November 2023 (UTC)
I have checked and I have thanked you in the past. I do not "manage" any pages however. Koshchki123 (she/they) (talk) 03:15, 22 November 2023 (UTC)

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Recent changes

  • Pages that use the JSON contentmodel will now use tabs instead of spaces for auto-indentation. This will significantly reduce the page size. [35]
  • Gadgets and personal user scripts may now use JavaScript syntax introduced in ES6 (also known as "ES2015") and ES7 ("ES2016"). MediaWiki validates the source code to protect other site functionality from syntax errors, and to ensure scripts are valid in all supported browsers. Previously, Gadgets could use the requiresES6 option. This option is no longer needed and will be removed in the future. [36]
  • Bot passwords and owner-only OAuth consumers can now be restricted to allow editing only specific pages. [37]
  • You can now thank edits made by bots. [38]
  • An update on the status of the Community Wishlist Survey for 2024 has been published. Please read and give your feedback.

  • The jquery.cookie module was deprecated and replaced with the mediawiki.cookie module last year. A script has now been run to replace any remaining uses, and this week the temporary alias will be removed. [42]
