Trappist_the_monk added a comment to T326065: Replace space with tabs in JSON indentation autoformatting.

At en:Wikipedia:Village pump (technical)#Tech News: 2024-03, the first bullet point says that tab characters are now used for indentation for JSON content model. Apparently not for tabular data at commons (Page content model: Tabular.JsonConfig). I recently created c:Data:Sandbox/CS1/Identifier limits.tab using an external text editor that uses tab characters for indenting. When I saved that page at commons, all of the tab characters were replaced with space characters.

No. In this image, the watchlist item for Wikipedia:Village pump (technical)‎‎ should be a green right-pointing arrow, not a green dot. The marker should be distinguishable from the green dot attached to watchlist item HMCS Bras d'Or (FHE 400)‎

Trappist_the_monk reopened T342489: RecentChanges missing arrow to expand collapsed entries on Timeless as "Open".

This is only partially resolved. Before today's update, the collapsed and uncollapsed 'arrow-like' markers were always gray in color whether they had been visited or not. After today's update, unvisited collapsed watchlist items now have a green dot marker (should be a green right-pointing-arrow-like marker). Clicking the dot of an expandable watchlist item, expands the list but the marker does not change to a down-pointing-arrow-like marker. Once all of the unvisited entries in an expanded watchlist item have been visited and the watchlist refreshed (F5), the marker changes to a gray-arrow-like marker.

Trappist_the_monk added a comment to T256649: incorrect English names for languages (they display the native names only).

Not clear what you are talking about. Sometime between the time that I wrote T256649#7246452 and today, someone has fixed something so that at en.wiki the language names now render in English as they should:

  • {{#language:sty|en}} returns: Siberian Tatar
  • {{#language:es-formal|en}} returns: Spanish (formal address)
  • {{#language:hu-formal|en}} returns: Hungarian (formal address)
  • {{#language:nl-informal|en}} returns: Dutch (informal address)

That is what I wanted to see fixed and now that it has been, thank you to whomever it was who did the fixing. I don't think that I have ever written about wikidata in this discussion because that is a place that I prefer to avoid.

Trappist_the_monk added a comment to T322897: visual editor creates broken |last= and |first= parameters in {{cite book}} (#2).

The editor who added the {{cite book}} template is a relatively new editor (as I write this, 19 edits; all done with ve). The formatting is uniform which suggests that a tool made the template. These things suggest that some something created the citation which the editor accepted as written without carefully inspecting it. I suspect ve because the edit is tagged with 'Tag: Visual edit' so, without a more obvious culprit, ve seems the likely suspect.

I find it hard to believe the editor who added the citation would have intentionally written: |last=1945-. That suggests that some something created the citation which the editor accepted as written without carefully inspecting it.

Trappist_the_monk added a comment to T199347: AWB should allow use of full edit summary character limit.

Despite what Editor Reedy apparently believes, T297568 is not about the length of the edit summary output from awb but rather, it is about the number of characters that the 'default summary' text box on the start tab will accept as input. I think that T297568 and T199347 are separate issues; related, yes, but still separate. T199347 is an old (relatively) issue opened 2018-07-11. I know that edit summaries created with a c# module can be longer than the 155ish characters that the 'default summary' text box allows. By merging T297568 into this task, that distinction gets lost.

For providing a url to link the static text 'Lay summary'. The lay summary is not the cited source so does not have the same 'privileges' as |title= and |url=. An archaic hold-over from the olden days. Were it up to me, I would get rid of all of the lay parameters in favor of having editors write separate, complete citation templates (with author, date, work, and all of the rest) ...

I love it when something fixes itself. I didn't fix (though I have tweaked that citation some just now).

Trappist_the_monk added a comment to T132308: Internationalise citoid dates.

(I was just confused by the IETF statement because I couldn't find anything like that in IETF, i.e. https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3339 )

Yeah, my error; I type IETF much more often than I type EDTF...

I'm happy to do EDTF level 1 abridged dates instead if that's preferable to the level 0 format.

Let us stick to a single term: 'unspecified digits'; 'abridged' implies a truncation or shortening which isn't the case. The date 2021-02-XX is just as long as 2021-02-24.

Trappist_the_monk added a comment to T132308: Internationalise citoid dates.

I'd be happy to consider switching to a different way of representing partial dates that doesn't require the use of English, but unfortunately no one has suggested a standard that doesn't that I've noticed @Trappist_the_monk you suggested IETF but I had a look and couldn't find a partial date representation there - did I miss it maybe?

Isn't that what most of the whole long discussion has been about? The current IETF at Level 1 §Unspecified digit(s) from the right at item 3 reads:

Year and month specified, day unspecified in a year-month-day expression (day precision)
Example 4 ‘1985-04-XX’

Does that not provide a way to do month year dates that don't require English?

That discussion has been archived.
The discussion where edtf was removed is also archived

For the YYYY-MM date format to be accepted at en.wiki, you will have to get it accepted at MOS:NUM. Were I you, I would not hold my breath.

I suspect that the %2 is a corruption of %22 the double quote character; support for that is shown in this edit where the %22 became %2.

Extended Date/Time Format (EDTF) Specification as of 2019-02-04. I still think that citoid and other tools that pass dates back and forth should adopt IETF or something similar so that there is a single standard for date representation. Let the templates that present the date information worry about month-name and date format presentation according to the rules of the particular wiki.

Something else that I notice that you did not mention: theidentifier labels: doi, ISSN, and PMID, all have external link icons; they should not, those labels are wikilinked to their respective articles.

I can't reproduce it; perhaps it is a ve anomaly (I do not use ve)? Does this problem occur because that citation doesn't actually exist in the §Symptoms section?
