My mainspace edits occur mostly when I notice possible improvements while reading, though I sometimes seek out articles that copyediting, references, or wikilinks.[citation needed] Other times my edits are usually template-, Commons-, or Wikidata-related.

I live in the Washington metropolitan area.

replace with newline

[edit]

WikiEditor supports find and replace using regular expressions, but there's no way to enter a newline in the 'Replace with' field, which doesn't handle escape sequences. This is tracked at phab:T281326, though here's a workaround: replace instead with a substitution to a page that produces a newline. I use {{subst:user:wqnvlz}} because this is one such page, by virtue of the wikitext:

<onlyinclude>
</onlyinclude>


[edit]

Results may contain false positives. Regular expression searches with unrestricted domain are resource-intensive and should be run infrequently.

WP:MOS pedantry

unacceptably formatted dates:

<U+002D - HYPHEN-MINUS> where <U+2013 EN DASH, <U+2014 EM DASH>, or <U+2212 MINUS SIGN> may be more appropriate:[a]
