re: Help Desk: My edits appear when logged in but not when logged out
Hello Daylen,
Thanks for your interest. Purging the server cache didn't seem to change anything, but when I looked at the page in question today (12 hours later) it came through with my edits intact. So I'm thinking that maybe just being patient and waiting to see changes is the best approach. Nobosses (talk) 19:42, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

Latest news from the Wikimedia Collaboration team, about Notifications, Flow and Edit Review Improvements. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you.
What's new?
The team is currently working on three main goals, which we expect to complete this summer or in September:
- Graduate New Filters for Edit Review core features out of beta:
- The core New Filters features slated to become standard parts of Recent Changes are the ones that have been out in beta for a while and fully road-tested by the community.
- These include the new filtering interface, the machine-learning filter groups “User Intent Predictions” and “Quality Predictions,” the highlighting tools, the ability to save your filter settings for later use, and the new filter groups: “Watchlisted pages,” “Last revision” and "User registration and experience."
- There’s a list of “blocker” tasks we need to complete before these features are ready to graduate out of beta.
- We expect to release those features by default in September. A more precise message will be sent to communities. If you have questions about it, you can write a message on Mediawiki.org, in any language.
- Extend the New Filters to Watchlist: The Watchlists of very active editors can include thousands of pages. To help these busy folks keep up with their work, we’re adding the New Filters UX and tools to Watchlist. The Watchlist and Recent Changes pages are similar, but there is some work involved in adapting the tools to their new setting. That work should be ready some time in late summer or early fall. Stay tuned for an announcement!
- Continuing work on “Integrated Filters”:
- While the New Filters for Edit Review beta brought probably 70% of the old-style Recent Changes features into the new user interface, it left some behind—like the Tag and Namespace filters and the controls for the number of days searched and number of results presented. As the name is meant to suggest, “Integrated filters” integrates those old-style tools into the new UI.
- It also adds some new tools users have asked for, such as:
- “Live updates” which provides a near real-time automatic refresh of the Recent Changes page.
- Category filters, which enable users to search by category.
- User filters, which let you define searches that include or exclude edits by particular users.
- We will put the community-defined related links that cluster at the top of most Recent Changes pages into a collapsible panel, in order to clarify the Recent Changes page.
We should note that it’s not certain these last two additions will make the cut for inclusion this year. If you want a make the case for either one, we want to hear from you.
Edit Review Improvements [More information • Help pages]
Recent changes
- Some styling adjustments are ongoing on the filters for recent changes. [1]
- RecentChanges with the Beta feature were very slow to load on Wikidata. It is now fixed. [2]
- In the Beta feature, you can try the Live Updates feature. Just add
&liveupdate=1
at the end of the URL in Recent Changes page. [3]
Future changes
- ORES review tool will be deployed to Romanian and Albanian Wikipedia soon. These wikis will be able to use predictions filters. To have the predictions filters on your wiki, you need to work on the labeling campaign for your wiki or request it. [4]
- Sometimes the RecentChanges page were reloading before the filters have ended to be loaded. It is going to be fixed. [5]
Notifications [More information • Help pages]
Recent changes
- It is now possible to display the number of unread notifications in the browser title bar, using a gadget. [6]
Future changes
- It will be possible to restrict who can send you notifications on a wiki. This new feature will accessible in your preferences, in the Notifications tab, on Wednesday, July 26. [7]

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Emerging Crowd logo.png
A tag has been placed on File:Emerging Crowd logo.png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused duplicate or lower-quality copy of another file on Wikipedia having the same file format, and all inward links have been updated.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Compose.io logo.png
Thank you for uploading File:Compose.io logo.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.
If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. Linguist111 17:33, 21 August 2017 (UTC)

Category move question
This help request has been answered. If you need more help, you can , contact the responding user(s) directly on their user talk page, or consider visiting the Teahouse. |
Is a bot avaliable to change all the pages in a category after a category name is changed? Thanks!
Categories to be moved:
- Category:Radio One (company) --> Category:Urban One
- Category:Radio One stations --> Category:Urban One stations

- A bot may be able to do it but you'd want to make this request on the Bot Notice board. Alternatively an AWB run may be able to take care of it. Amortias (T)(C) 07:59, 24 August 2017 (UTC)
- @Amortias: is wrong on both counts. The way to "change a category name" is to go through either WP:Categories for discussion for anything vaguely controversial, or WP:Categories for discussion/Speedy for "easy" things like this where the categories just need fixing to reflect the corporate name change. Yes, a bot will then make any necessary changes, but you have to go through the procedure. I've now made the request, but just in general, if you find yourself creating a red link to a category as you did here, then there will be a better way to do what you're trying to achieve (per WP:REDNOT).Le Deluge (talk) 10:42, 24 August 2017 (UTC)
- Thanks Le Deluge. I had previously heard about a bot for category moves, but always did it manually in the past. Have a nice day! Daylen (talk) 18:59, 24 August 2017 (UTC)

CC-BY-SA clarification
Hi Daylen. Based on your comment at User talk:Zulkifl Agha I thought I should just clear something up: contributors do own the copyright to text they add to Wikipedia. The CC-BY-SA licence simply means that they license their work to be reused; it doesn't negate their ownership of the copyright (indeed, if they don't own the copyright, they can't legally apply the licence). Releasing a work into the public domain generally voids copyright, but releasing under a Creative Commons licence does not. All the best, Yunshui 雲水 09:47, 25 September 2017 (UTC) Oh, and a quick way to tell whether or not a user is blocked is to look at the top of their Contributions page (accessible from the left hand menu when yo're looking at a user page or user talkpage) - a big red message shows up if they're blocked. Or you can check the block log. Yunshui 雲水 09:50, 25 September 2017 (UTC)
- I looked under Special:UserRights and Special:Log (I searched the user name as the performer instead of the target by accident). Sorry about the license confusion, I did a super bad job of explaining it. Thanks for the proper definition. Have a nice day! Daylen (talk) 14:24, 25 September 2017 (UTC)

WikiProject Canada 10,000 Challenge
Hi! I noticed you signed up for The 10,000 Challenge of WikiProject Canada but hadn't submitted any articles. There's no deadline, but the challenge is coming up to its first anniversary so this could be a good time to submit any Canada-related articles you've created or improved since November 2016. Please try to ensure that all entries are sourced with formatted citations and no unsourced claims.
You can use this link for convenience to submit entries. Thank-you, and please spread the word to those you know who might be interested in joining this effort to improve the quality of Canada-related articles. – Reidgreg (talk) 19:38, 30 September 2017 (UTC)

- Hi Codename Lisa The iOS app (I put iPhone as the app does not yet support iPads) is live in beta; however, you have to be a skip ahead Windows Insider, due to Apple's TestPilot program limitations. The link above will only work if you are signed up for the program. After the beta is complete (later this year), the app will be launched in the App Store. According to Microsoft, the Android app is undergoing final testing, and will be released as beta software to the Google Play Store very soon. If you would prefer to wait until the apps are out of beta, that is fine with me. Here is a video of the iOS app - https://twitter.com/tomwarren/status/915993180969029632. Cheers, Daylen (talk) 15:10, 6 October 2017 (UTC)
- I see.
- Well, the truth is, the link returns a 404 to me, but it is a known fact that Microsoft's website is heavily customized to take the visitor's region and user agent into account. Hence, if it works for you, then it is settled: We add it to the article.
- Nevertheless, it isn't customary to add the beta operating system to the infobox. I have a WP:CRYSTAL concern there. But I am offering out-of-infobox mention as a compromise. What do you say?

Orphaned non-free image File:City of Ottawa logo.png
Thanks for uploading File:City of Ottawa logo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use.

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:57, 6 October 2017 (UTC)

Hi Daylen. We collaborated a bit on the Wink (platform) Wikipedia page with @FeldBum: a while back. I am working on another tech article (IT Security) where I'd like to contribute with a COI, requiring an impartial crowd-sourced editor review my work. I was wondering if you (or FeldBum if he gets this) were willing to chip in here, where I have shared a potential draft that would help rebalance and fill-out the article.

File:YXE logo 2017.png listed for discussion
A file that you uploaded or altered, File:YXE logo 2017.png, has been listed at Wikipedia:Files for discussion. Please see the discussion to see why it has been listed (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry). Feel free to add your opinion on the matter below the nomination. Thank you. Jon Kolbert (talk) 19:06, 8 October 2017 (UTC)
- Okay, I support the license change. Daylen (talk) 22:46, 8 October 2017 (UTC)
The article Simplii Financial has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
References fail the criteria for establishing notability.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. -- HighKing++ 18:32, 22 October 2017 (UTC)

Press releases in COI articles
Please read WP:Identifying PR and decide whether you will honor requests from COI editors to add press releases. ☆ Bri (talk) 21:56, 30 October 2017 (UTC)
- Hi @Bri: Just wondering why you left this note on my talk page. If you are referring to the initial draft posted on Talk:Parq Vancouver, I told the company that it was overly promotional and would not be accepted; however, the asked me to get another editor to take a look at it. The next morning, I ran the text through Earwig's copyvio detector and discovered the problem. Cheers, Daylen (talk) 02:10, 31 October 2017 (UTC)
- It was about Splunk actually, this edit which was apparently requested by a corp representative. The ITWire announcement that you added looks indistinguishable from a company press release, in fact it has the same company quotes in this press kit. Whenever you see "CEO Joe Schmoe said ...", this ishould be a bright red flag. ☆ Bri (talk) 02:26, 31 October 2017 (UTC)

Latest news from the Wikimedia Global Collaboration team, about Notifications, Structured discussions, Edit Review Improvements and Content translation. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you.
What's new?
- The Global collaboration report for October is now available.

- Shortcuts to filter Namespaces and Tags are now more visible. [19]
- Discovery of the search bar has been improved. [20]
- If the Recent Changes page or the Watchlist fails to load or is time-outed, a message is now displayed. [21][22]
- The bookmark icon for creating a "Saved filter" is now grayed when it is not possible to save. Before it was not visible. Bookmarking is unavailable when, for example, the current filter set is already saved. [23]
Future changes
- Live updates on Recent changes will be moved out of beta and into the standard feature set by the end of the year. [24]
- Extension:Translate filters for RecentChanges are going to be integrated to the new filters. [25]

Content translation [More information • Help pages]
Recent changes
- List items (suggested items and in-progress/published translations) layout restyled to prevent overflows on small screen sizes.
- Search results for new translation dialog are now embedded, instead of being displayed in floating menu. Search results remain displayed when tabbed out and can be closed using ESC key.
- Missing pages are no longer shown when there is no match for search query. Message informing that there are no results is displayed instead.
- Embedded search results enabled to provide users with more translation opportunities. Articles user recently edited (in currently selected source language wiki) are surfaced when there is no input in search bar, with additional info if article is missing in user's currently selected target language.
- Long suggestion descriptions are limited to three lines, and the rest is truncated, which is indicated by ellipsis.
- Chart data representing user translation statistics in now showing all the months since user's first published translation. Months that went without translation are now displayed in chart as well.

Notifications [More information • Help pages]
Recent changes
- Edit-user-talk notifications are now expandable. [27]
Structured Discussions [More information • Help pages]
Future changes
- Some work is ongoing to store Structured Discussions contents from HTML to wikitext. That change will allow some specific templates and magic words to work properly on Structured Discussions. [28]
- Some tests are conducted in order to prepare the rewriting of Structured Discussions' interface. That rewriting will have no visible impact on users but it will ease future changes.
Other projects
- Compact Language Links has been deployed on German Wikipedia. [29]

A page you started (Gig Car Share) has been reviewed!
Thanks for creating Gig Car Share, Daylen!
Wikipedia editor Jcc just reviewed your page, and wrote this note for you:
Very touch and go in terms of notability hence I've added a tag accordingly. Are there any extra citations you can add about this organisation showing it's notable? I'm concerned since the article may get deleted otherwise. If so just edit the article and add citations using the cite tool. If you've got any questions just let me know.
To reply, leave a comment on Jcc's talk page.
Learn more about page curation.

- Hi jcc, I have went ahead and added three additional references to the article. Daylen (talk) 17:28, 1 December 2017 (UTC)

ANI Experiences survey
The Wikimedia Foundation Community health initiative (led by the Safety and Support and Anti-Harassment Tools team) is conducting a survey for en.wikipedia contributors on their experience and satisfaction level with the Administrator’s Noticeboard/Incidents. This survey will be integral to gathering information about how this noticeboard works - which problems it deals with well, and which problems it struggles with.
The survey should take 10-20 minutes to answer, and your individual responses will not be made public. The survey is delivered through Google Forms. The privacy policy for the survey describes how and when Wikimedia collects, uses, and shares the information we receive from survey participants and can be found here:
If you would like to take this survey, please sign up on this page, and a link for the survey will be mailed to you via Special:Emailuser.
Please be aware this survey will close Friday, Dec. 8 at 23:00 UTC.

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Carrot Rewards iOS app screenshot.png
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on File:Carrot Rewards iOS app screenshot.png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from Screenshot. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. reddogsix (talk) 23:32, 25 December 2017 (UTC)
