Another Userbox for you!

For your contributions to Wikipedia and humanity in general, you are hereby granted the coveted:
Random Smiley Award
(Explanation and Disclaimer)

I hope you'll accept this Userbox and add it to your collection. The world needs more happiness. If this award has made you smile, please consider passing it on to another Wikipedian. User:SeaBeeDee(talk) 17:52, 9 March 2019 (UTC)

Also...

I noticed that one of your Userboxes says a bit about making Userboxes. Would you consider a collaboration on the creation of a handful of new Userboxes? I've looked unsuccessfully for a rather specific Userbox to no avail. If interested, please respond on my talk page. If you aren't, could you maybe recommend someone?

Please participate to the talk pages consultation

Hello

Our team at the Wikimedia Foundation is working on a project to improve the ease-of-use and productivity of wiki talk pages. As a Teahouse host, I can imagine you’ve run into challenges explaining talk pages to first-time participants.

We want all contributors to be able to talk to each other on the wikis – to ask questions, to resolve differences, to organize projects and to make decisions. Communication is essential for the depth and quality of our content, and the health of our communities. We're currently leading a global consultation on how to improve talk pages, and we're looking for people that can report on their experiences using (or helping other people to use) wiki talk pages. We'd like to invite you to participate in the consultation, and invite new users to join too.

We thank you in advance for your participation and your help.

NPR Newsletter No.17

Hello Zppix/2019,

News
Discussions of interest
  • Two elements of CSD G6 have been split into their own criteria: R4 for redirects in the "File:" namespace with the same name as a file or redirect at Wikimedia Commons (Discussion), and G14 for disambiguation pages which disambiguate zero pages, or have "(disambiguation)" in the title but disambiguate a single page (Discussion).
  • {{db-blankdraft}} was merged into G13 (Discussion)
  • A discussion recently closed with no consensus on whether to create a subject-specific notability guideline for theatrical plays.
  • There is an ongoing discussion on a proposal to create subject-specific notability guidelines for chemicals and organism taxa.
Reminders
  • NPR is not a binary keep / delete process. In many cases a redirect may be appropriate. The deletion policy and its associated guideline clearly emphasise that not all unsuitable articles must be deleted. Redirects are not contentious. See a classic example of the templates to use. More templates are listed at the R template index. Reviewers who are not aware, do please take this into consideration before PROD, CSD, and especially AfD because not even all admins are aware of such policies, and many NAC do not have a full knowledge of them.
NPP Tools Report
  • Superlinks – allows you to check an article's history, logs, talk page, NPP flowchart (on unpatrolled pages) and more without navigating away from the article itself.
  • copyvio-check – automatically checks the copyvio percentage of new pages in the background and displays this info with a link to the report in the 'info' panel of the Page curation toolbar.
  • The NPP flowchart now has clickable hyperlinks.

Semi-protected edit request on 22 March 2019 - please change End-of-life date on line 1821 from non-italicized to italicized

Hi Zppix,

Thank you for the super-fast change!

I noticed in the source on the newly updated page that the italics brackets start after the word 'on'. The rest of the page has the brackets different. Can this be adjusted? Happy to submit a new change request.

For example: line 1725 >End-of-life 3.6.x product line</a> on April 24, 2012. line 1822 >End-of-life 4.0.x product line</a> on June 21, 2011. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Awkwardsedrick (talkcontribs) 15:27, 22 March 2019 (UTC)

thanks

Zppix,

Appreciate your help.

Did you need me to create a new ticket for that additional change to the italics bracket? I want to ensure i'm requesting and tracking work correctly. Also want to make sure you get the credit for the time & work put in. :-)

Thanks again, awk|sed — Preceding unsigned comment added by Awkwardsedrick (talkcontribs) 21:27, 22 March 2019 (UTC)

outside of italics brackets

Zppix,

Ah, thanks for the tip/reminder on the signing at the bottom of the talk page. Still getting the hang of this & I appreciate the patience.

I'm still seeing the word "on" outside of the italics brackets. line 1821, >End-of-life 4.0.x product line</a> on June 21, 2011.

Are you seeing something different?

Thanks. awk|sed
