23rd Saturn Awards

This is an automated message from MadmanBot. I have performed a search with the contents of 23rd Saturn Awards, and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: 24th Saturn Awards. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. MadmanBot (talk) 07:14, 28 February 2014 (UTC)

Reverted edit to Air France Accidents and Incidents

You reverted my here on the basis that it was vandalism or a test. My thinking was it was material to note that an aircraft collision occurred on the ground (ie while taxiing) and not in the air. 172.56.16.169 (talk) 07:30, 15 March 2014 (UTC)

Another revert

Thanks for your anti-vandalism patrolling, but I should let you know that I've undone your revert on Penair School – a quick look at the school's website shows that it wasn't a test or vandalism.  —SMALLJIM  11:58, 15 March 2014 (UTC)

Undoing a Revert

You undid my edit on the the Lego Movie page because you found it 'not constructive'. I will be re-editing my edit onto the page on the simple basis that the film was co-produced by Village Roadshow Pictures, an Australian film company. Further more, the film's animation was completed by the Sydney based company Animal Logic, the animation studio behind the australian oscar winning film Happy Feet. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jamluster (talk • contribs) 10:01, 18 March 2014 (UTC)

VisualEditor newsletter—March 2014

Did you know?
Click this image to see the details.

The template dialog has been simplified to make it faster and easier to add parameter data. Read the user guide for more information.

Since the last newsletter, the VisualEditor team has mostly worked on changes to the template and image dialogs.

The biggest change in the last few weeks was the redesign of the template dialog. The template dialog now opens in a simplified mode that lists parameters and their descriptions. (The complex multi-item transclusion mode can be reached by clicking on "Show options" from inside the simplified template dialog.) Template parameters now have a bigger, auto-sizing input box for easier editing.  With today's update, searching for template parameters will become case-insensitive, and required template parameters will display an asterisk (*) next to their edit boxes. In addition to making it quicker and easier to see everything when you edit typical templates, this work was necessary to prepare for the forthcoming simplified citation dialog. The main priority in the coming weeks is building this new citation dialog, with the ultimate goal of providing autofill features for ISBNs, URLs, DOIs and other quick-fills. This will add a new button on the toolbar, with the citation templates available picked by each wiki's community. Concept drawings can be seen at mw:VisualEditor/Design/Reference Dialog. Please share your ideas about making referencing quick and easy with the designers.

  • The link tool now tells you when you're linking to a disambiguation or redirect page. Pages that exist, but are not indexed by the search engine, are treated like non-existent pages (T56361).
  • Wikitext warnings will now hide when you remove wikitext from the paragraph you are editing.
  • The character inserter tool in the "Insert" menu has been slightly redesigned, to introduce larger buttons. Your suggestions for more significant changes to the special character inserter are still wanted.
  • The page options menu (three bars, next to the Cancel button) has expanded. You can create and edit redirect pages, set page options like __STATICREDIRECT__, __[NO]INDEX__ and __[NO]NEWEDITSECTION__, and more.  New keyboard shortcuts are listed there, and include undoing the last action, clearing formatting, and showing the shortcut help window. If you switch from VisualEditor to wikitext editing, your edit will now be tagged.
  • It is easier to edit images. There are more options and they are explained better. If you add new images to pages, they will also be default size.  You can now set image sizes to the default, if another size was previously specified. Full support for upright sizing systems, which more readily adapt image sizes to the reader's screen size, is planned.
  • VisualEditor adds fake blank lines so you can put your cursor there. These "slugs" are now smaller than normal blank lines, and are animated to be different from actual blank lines.
  • You can use the Ctrl+Alt+S or ⌘ Command+⌥ Option+S shortcuts to open the save window, and you can preview your edit summary when checking your changes in the save window.
  • After community requests, VisualEditor has been deployed to the Interlingual Occidental Wikipedia, the Portuguese Wikibooks, and the French Wikiversity.
  • Any community can ask for custom icons for their language in the character formatting menu (bold, italic, etc.) by making a request on Bugzilla or by contacting Product Manager James Forrester.

The developers apologize for a regression bug with the deployment on 6 March 2014, which caused the incorrect removal of |upright size definitions on a handful of pages on the English Wikipedia, among others. The root cause was fixed, and the broken pages were fixed soon after.

Looking ahead:  Several template dialogs will become more compact. Looking further out, the developers are also working on support for viewing and editing hidden HTML comments. You will be able to see the Table of Contents change live as you edit the page, rather than it being hidden. In-line language setting (dir="rtl") may be offered to a few Wikipedias soon.

If you have questions or suggestions for future improvements, or if you encounter problems, please let everyone know by posting a note at Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback or by joining the office hours on 19 April 2014 at 2000 UTC. Thank you! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 22:44, 20 March 2014 (UTC)

Rhod Gilbert

Howdy. You just reverted my edits to Rhod Gilbert's page, which means you re-added a frankly pointless and empty 5 tables that indicate where he (as a stand-up comedian) performed live. As stand-up comedians tend to perform live in a great many venues over their careers, you've re-added a rather large number of page-downs that don't inform readers of anything remotely significant. If you could see your way clear to returning to my edited version, you'd be doing both me and other Wikipedians a favor. Thanks, 72.200.123.231 (talk) 08:06, 22 March 2014 (UTC)

Leslie Stefanson

Hi, you made a revert on one of the pages because you thought it might be vandalism. The edit I made to add in bracket "nsfw" which means Not Safe For Work, a common internet initialism meaning that the following link may have contents not suitable for work. This includes pornography, gore, violent gifs etc. I believe the edit I made was contructive as the link I placed the initialism next to is indeed nsfw. I have a feeling this is automated and if so, I'd suggest refining the software you're using to detect these sorts of changes. Jaitaiwan (talk) 08:11, 22 March 2014 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of Anna (Disney)

Buffie Macfadyen update

Hi...You undid my change about Buffie Macfadyen and whether or not she is running for Congress. You do know she announced March 17 that she is not running, right? Just thought I'd message you from the sandbox, thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.25.44.214 (talk) 21:47, 22 March 2014 (UTC)

Please look at Show Preview before you save changes

PLEASE preview your own edits before saving. Your errors in this edit (and the edits near it) include:

  • "keep Anna (and everyone else) away from her" became "run the friends away before she may hurt anyone again"
    • "Friends" is the wrong word choice; Kristoff and Anna had just met Olaf.
  • "collaborating closely with Burbank-based Disney" became "collaborating closely with Burbank-based studio"
    • "Disney" as a proper noun does NOT take an article in this context, but if you're going to insert the common noun "studio," then "studio" MUST take an article before the adjective "Burbank-based."
  • "treated clothing as merely part of the characters" became "treated clothing as mere part of the characters"
    • Correct syntax is either "as merely part of" or "as a mere part of," but it is NEVER "as mere part of."

If you're still in high school or younger, no big deal. We all made mistakes back then. Otherwise, PLEASE read a textbook on English grammar. --Coolcaesar (talk) 14:58, 24 March 2014 (UTC)

Look, I'm going to try to fix your typos again. Please don't get in the way. Nothing ticks off other editors more than reverting their accurate grammar and spelling corrections.
Also, one way to test your grammar before you risk irritating other editors that way is to run both versions of a phrase through Google Books (which is based on millions of books scanned at the world's top libraries). Typos like "as mere part of" tend to return far fewer hits than the correct phrases I cited above. Thanks. --Coolcaesar (talk) 14:49, 25 March 2014 (UTC)
I really, really hope for your sake that your question is in earnest (as opposed to sarcastic). It's at books.google.com. And to search on a phrase, wrap it in quotes. --Coolcaesar (talk) 15:12, 25 March 2014 (UTC)
