@RZuo, thanks, fixed. Right, on Commons itself [[commons:]] links point to the "Commons" namespace, not Commons as the website. Jack who built the house (talk) 08:18, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jack who built the house, I am a bored bot (this is kind of a computer program) that is watching the recent changes and tapping buttons like I did now.

Curious about the reason? Possibly not but I will tell you anyway:

1. You edited User:Jack who built the house/convenientDiscussions-i18n/tr.js. Glad to see you coding in javascript! Have you ever considered becoming a MediaWiki hacker?
2. Though, that change appears to introduce 1 new jshint issue — the page's status is now having warnings. Note that invalid or ambiguous code often has unwanted side effects like breaking other tools for you. If you cannot find out how to fix it, I suggest blanking the page for now.
3. To help you understanding where the issues are, I have aggregated a report here and now. If you have questions, don't hesitate to ask users experienced in javascript writing for help. But do not ask the bot's operators (chronically overwrought) unless you suspect an error of mine. If you prefer not getting spammed by me, you can opt-out reports by adding {{ValidationOptOut|type=all}} to your user page or cmb-opt-out anywhere on your your global user page on Meta. Good luck at Wikimedia Commons and happy hacking!

Приветствую, Jack who built the house! Пишу на вашей странице обсуждения здесь, а в translatewiki, по известным причинам. Спасибо за скриншот, иллюстрирующий использование строки, и за внесение исправления!

Обычно я ратую за сохранение глаголов в переводах, но тут случай несколько другой: как вы смотрите на идею обсуждения других вариантов перевода? Исходя из вашего скриншота, вариант «переместить вбок», как мне видится, тоже не влезет в отведённое поле. Я предложил бы что-то из серии:

1) в боковой панели
2) в панели
3) в стороне/в сторону
3) сбоку

Интересно было бы узнать, что вы думаете об этом. — Pacha Tchernof (talk) 20:13, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Приветствую!

1) https://i.imgur.com/A4pBQoD.png (возможно, связано с @ником без ссылки) -- нет, повторялось многократно с любым сообщением, в тч после перезагрузки страницы.

2) Не баг, но хотелось бы совместимости с ru:u:Jaguar_K/Gadget-CollapsibleSidebar.js и подобным. Проблема в оглавлении, что в левом меню - оно не появляется, если при запуске CD левая панель скрыта, а затем раскрыта. Впрочем, можно оглавление в принципе отвязать от необходимости левой панели.

3) Хотелось бы, чтобы в СН/вкладе/etc CD давал ссылки в стиле инструментов обсуждения, а не в родном формате для того, чтобы не ждать обработки страницы, а сразу перейти к сообщению.

4) Не показывает (сообщение) для переименованных. Так же, непонятно когда показывает (сообщение) во вкладе.

5) AK подпись в t:hide считается за подпись сообщения.

6) Неплохо бы настройку, чтобы "перейти к теме или искать в архиве" можно было вернуть в заголовок страницы. В системном сообщении очень мелко, и ссылки близко друг к другу, легко промахнуться. Jaguar K (talk) 17:05, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

1) Исправлено ещё в начале января.
2) При случае гляну.
3) Не получится. В СН мы знаем только дату и автора сообщения, а для ссылки в формате DT нужно знать ещё, на что оно отвечает и другие факторы.
4) Не решить. Во вкладе показывает на основе ряда факторов, таких как название страницы, наличине флага малой правки, число добавленных байт, описание правки.
5) Спасибо, посмотрю.
6) Вряд ли. Jack who built the house (talk) 07:12, 13 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

6) Вряд ли. - почему? И еще: importScript('u:Jack who built the house/proceedToArchive.js'); можно изменить, чтобы работал так же, как CD (сразу давал ссылку на архив, если он найден)?

7) ru:Википедия:Форум/Правила#Википедия:Удаление_страниц:_«администратор»_заменить_на_«участник,_подводящий_итог» раздел Итога.

Корявое определение (со стороны инструментов википедии, видимо) - заголовки верные, сообщения написаны как обычно (уже здесь неправильно). CD не позволяет ответить. Мб можно поправить (или разработчиками DT сообщить)? Jaguar K (talk) 14:24, 14 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

6. Скриптом proceedToArchive я уже не буду заниматься. Настройка для места вывода сообщения — странный зверь. Шапка страницы — неудачное место для вывода сообщений от скриптов, там в норме только непосредственный контент страницы. Jack who built the house (talk) 21:44, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jack, I created the convenient-discussions edit tag on the Japanese Wikipedia. I'd appreciate it if you could make the script compatible with it when you have time. Dragoniez (talk) 12:28, 24 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Dragoniez: Thank you! I've created a configuration file for Japanese Wikipedia, ja:利用者:Jack who built the house/convenientDiscussions.js, the tag name is written there. Info about configuration files. If you ever decide to make CD into a gadget, you can use this file as a basis. Jack who built the house (talk) 13:19, 24 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Just letting you know, the edit tag has been working like a charm since you generated the config page for us. Thanks! Dragoniez (talk) 13:53, 30 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That's great! Too few edits though 😹 Jack who built the house (talk) 14:36, 30 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Is this supported? I'm running CD on a non-WMF wiki and some of the icons don't show up (even when using a configuration file). Leaderboard (talk) 11:28, 20 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Leaderboard: Oh, good to hear from somebody running CD on a non-WMF wiki. I aim to support it outside of WMF, although my efforts in that direction were limited to this point. Can you show me an example page on the wiki? If you want, we can talk privately. Jack who built the house (talk) 11:37, 20 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

some of the icons don't show up
Icons are generally loaded as OOUI modules. If some modules are missing, you would generally get an error in the JavaScript console (F12 → Console). Icons can be missing because of an old version of MediaWiki. Jack who built the house (talk) 12:13, 20 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the response BTW and fixing the main issue I had. Leaderboard (talk) 13:22, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

BTW, you could speed up the loading of CD by making it into a gadget loaded by default. See how it is done in azwiki: 1 (+ add |default after ResourceLoader to make the gadget load by default), 2, 3. Jack who built the house (talk) 15:53, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Jack! I'm reviewing the Chinese translation of the tool (the previous translator must have used a machine translation, making the translation very bad), and I'd like to ask if the translation of this message can include Chinese? The Chinese date format is like "2023年12月17日上午10:40" ("17 December 2023, 10:40 AM"), I don't whether the translation "YYYY年M月D日Ah:mm" is correct. Thanks! BlackShadowG (talk) 15:49, 17 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@BlackShadowG: Hi, thank you for your contributions! Sorry for the delay. Yes, it can be used!

I went to Chinese Wikipedia and made a screenshot of a comment that uses the message you translated. If the date is correct, then everything is fine. Jack who built the house (talk) 03:51, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, it's corrct, thanks for the response! BlackShadowG (talk) 07:37, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@JWBTH: Sorry for bothering you again. I have another question: When using this tool on the Chinese Wikipedia, the settings display the message "The current wiki doesn't have an outdent template specified." Could you please guide me on how to specify this template for the Chinese Wikipedia? Thanks again. BlackShadowG (talk) 12:46, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@BlackShadowG: You will need to create a configuration file for Chinese Wikipedia using these instructions. You may put it in your user space on zh.wikipedia.org and then contact me, so that I specify it as the configuration file for Chinese Wikipedia. Alternatively, if your community wants to, you may make Convenient Discussions a gadget for everybody (the content of the configuration file will be the content of the gadget). Either way, with a configuration file, the script will run smoother on your wiki. Good luck! Jack who built the house (talk) 16:47, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@JWBTH: I've created one on w:zh:User:BlackShadowG/convenientDiscussions.js, could you please specify it as a configuration file for Chinese Wikipedia? I think it will be more persuasive to encourage our community to embrace Convenient Discussions as a gadget once it has been configured for Chinese Wikipedia. Thanks! BlackShadowG (talk) 12:49, 6 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@BlackShadowG: could you please specify it as a configuration file for Chinese Wikipedia

Help!

I received an unnecessary notification with this link over on en.wikipedia. I contacted the author of that page about it, User:Muhandes said it was due to a bug in the Convenient Converations script. So I'm bringing it here.

Why was I pinged, and what is a "TUSC token"? -- Mikeblas (talk) 00:16, 11 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. As far as I can see, you were pinged by this edit.

1. This edit was made by OneClickArchiver, not Convenient Discussions.
2. I think it's not OneClickArchiver's fault.
3. The reason you were pinged is that the archiver's signature was in the edit, as well as your nickname. MediaWiki interpreted this as the fact that the archiver wrote the message and pinged you.

To sort this out, the issue with CD was that from some unknown reason, responses which I made with CD on my talk page went to the top discussion instead of the one I intended. You can see these edits here and here. This resulted in a wrong ping to "TUSC token" which is the top discussion on my talk page. I then had to move them to their correct position (this edit and this) which resulted with the correct ping. This has nothing to do with why using OneClickArchiver results in a ping, which is something new to me but may have always been the case. Muhandes (talk) 07:40, 11 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Jack who built the house Thanks for the explanation! Muhandes, it looks like your diagnosis was wrong, and your dismissal of my query was also not productive. Are you able to help me figure out why your edits were pinging me unnecessarily? I still don't know what a "TUSC token" is, or why I should be notified that you (or I?) have one. What bug should OneClickARchiver fix so that other users aren't befuddled by these rapid-fire irrelevant pings? -- Mikeblas (talk) 01:27, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Mikeblas: which part of my diagnosis is wrong? You got pinged because of OneClickArchiver and you got the extra "TUSC token" ping due to a CD irregularity. I didn't see anyone contradicting this so far. I didn't dismiss any of your queries and I told you this exact analysis immediately as you asked. The CD issue does not repeat because I am now using the CD UI differently, replying to messages instead of replying to a topic. I also use OneClickArchiver.quite rarely.

@Muhandes: By the way, if you try to use "Reply to section" with this topic and press "View changes" instead of "Reply"

– will the diff show the reply in a wrong place? Jack who built the house (talk) 11:58, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@JWBTH: Yes, I managed to replicate the bug exactly. It only happens in one section in my page, this one. If I click "Reply to section" and then "view changes", I get the diff on the wrong section. Here is a screen capture, and you can see even the edit summary is /* Better source request for File:Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology University logo.png */ reply but the diff is on the wrong section

That's very helpful! Especially the screenshot. I could reproduce the issue, and now I see the cause: it's the "Comments in Local Time" gadget. It conflicts with CD. You can

• either disable it (CD has a couple of timestamp formatting options of its own in the settings)
• or follow the guidelines at User:Jack who built the house/Convenient Discussions to make them work together.

Meanwhile, I'll try to figure out why that script causes CD to post in the first section... Jack who built the house (talk) 00:31, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

(Well, it was kind of funny. Since CD didn't see the comments because of the gadget that changed the format of their signatures, CD assumed that the first section is the right one, because it doesn't have comments as well...) Jack who built the house (talk) 00:51, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Disabling the "Comments in Local Time" gadget resolved the issue. Frankly, since the issue did not occur when using "reply to comment", only on "reply to section", I was not even planning to report it. Thanks to Mikeblas for insisting. Muhandes (talk) 07:46, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I guess I'm misunderstanding the diagnosis and your statements.

Your two edits last week were the only time I've ever been pinged with a "TUSC token" warning, or when an old comment I made was archived. Were this a bug, seems like it might've happened more often, and with more users than just yourself. On your en.talkpage, you said the issue was "failure of the Convenient Discussions script, also beyond my control", but here Jack is saying that the issue wasn't caused by the CD script.

Can either of you clarify the cause of these spurious pings? How can they be eliminated? Nobody wants to get irrelevant pings, and nobody wants to be pinged for comments they made many months ago as they're being archived. -- Mikeblas (talk) 16:18, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You've been pinged by the archivation (if you were) because of the archivation edit that by a rare coincidence looked like a legitimate comment pinging you. You couldn't be pinged by two edits posted with CD, because you weren't mentioned in them. Jack who built the house (talk) 17:14, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Here's the message I saw, which Muhandes said was due to CD. That's why I've asked about it here. I was also pinged by the archiving of another page, and I linked that screen shot below. -- Mikeblas (talk) 19:52, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, ok. Jack who built the house (talk) 20:37, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Mikeblas Two issues were at play:

• The first was erroneous "TUSC token" pings. This resulted from a well-documented conflict between scripts, which surfaced unexpectedly. I resolved the conflict in my account, so it’s no longer relevant, and I believe JWBTH is looking into a permanent fix.
• The second, unrelated issue involves pings triggered by archiving with OneClickArchiver. This might be normal behavior if the archiver made the last comment on the thread. Next time I need manual archiving, I'll try asking someone else to do it to see if it prevents the pings.

This should be a satisfactory result. Have fun editing. Muhandes (talk) 07:59, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the clarification! I'm glad fixes are being made. -- Mikeblas (talk) 19:44, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, that's a bug, thanks for the report, I'll look into it! It's a separate issue from pings though. As I understand, Mikeblas is talking about pings, not notifications occurring when someone edits your talk page. Jack who built the house (talk) 10:35, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm talking about "alerts", like this one. The TUSC token warning showed up in the same list, but I don't think I have a screenshot. -- Mikeblas (talk) 19:42, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
