TFDClerk

Hi Anomie. Could you stop AnomieBOT from adding the "metadata" class to TfD pages when it creates the daily log? This has been creating problems on mobile view, and also with T13bot, which has been removing the class from old log pages. See here for an example where they are reverting each other, and here for the VPT thread. Best — Mr. Stradivarius ^{♪ talk ♪} 23:44, 15 July 2014 (UTC)

See User talk:AnomieBOT/Archive 7#Bot warring. Note the one being "warred" over is the navigation header at the top, not the closed discussions. Anomie⚔ 01:55, 16 July 2014 (UTC)

Thanks, I hadn't seen that. I'll remember to check the bot's talk page as well next time. — Mr. Stradivarius ^{♪ talk ♪} 02:14, 16 July 2014 (UTC)

Can you please adjust the bot to not leave the extra whitespace at the top of each daily section? -- Netoholic @ 21:35, 17 August 2014 (UTC)

I've removed the space between the category and the comment, which seems to give the same output as in your edit. The other bit of whitespace seems like it would be more problematic, so I'm not going to mess with it. Anomie⚔ 12:24, 18 August 2014 (UTC)

OAuth Hello World

Hi Anomie,

I'm just reading and playing around with OAuth and found your OAuth Hello World script, which seems very helpful to me. However, after having authorized the script and trying to do a post through the script (second link) I get an internal server error. The same problem occurs with the "enduser" version. Would you like to have a look over it? It would be very helpful to me to have a working example script. Thanks a lot, cheers from Germany, Yellowcard (talk) 11:26, 28 August 2014 (UTC)

It looks like something is not right with HHVM and OAuth, or else with OAuth and testwiki. I'll have to follow up with one of the developers working on that. Anomie⚔ 13:30, 28 August 2014 (UTC)

Thanks a lot, Anomie! Do you think you could give me a short hint on my German talk page when it's fixed? Thanks again, Yellowcard (talk) 12:08, 29 August 2014 (UTC)

Hey Anomie, is there any news on that? Yellowcard (talk) 19:20, 12 November 2014 (UTC)

I haven't heard anything. I think that the "internal server error" has been fixed, but in a quick test I'm not getting things to work at the moment. Anomie⚔ 12:36, 13 November 2014 (UTC)

Noticed the script stopped working recently. I don't know the actual root of the problem, but a simple patch was to set the default for txt in getRefs2 to be a blank string, as it is sometimes undefined and txt.replace(...) will throw an error. Just letting you know! Thanks for all the awesome scripts :) — MusikAnimal ^talk 21:22, 5 October 2014 (UTC)

It's usually better to find the root of the problem than to just hack around it. Anomie⚔ 11:45, 6 October 2014 (UTC)

Super late reply... Anyway for the record I agree it's of course better to fix the real problem, I just didn't know how. Thing is that I rely heavily on many of your scripts. When they stop working, my work suffers :) Hopefully you'll be okay with me making temporary patches like that moving forward? I would certainly let you know of any changes. Many thanks — MusikAnimal ^talk 01:00, 13 October 2014 (UTC)

Fixes are appreciated, if you don't mind that I might do the same in the future as I did here. (: Anomie⚔ 21:58, 15 October 2014 (UTC)

Hi!

Oh, hi Anomie! How are you with editing on Wikipedia? --Allen ^{(talk to me! / ctrb / E-mail me)} 16:02, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

Proposal to move pronunciations and other info from lead

I'm posting here to follow up on the recent Village Pump discussion, archived here, to move pronunciations and other info out of article lead sections. I'm inviting editors who participated in that discussion to comment on the Manual of Style:Lead section guideline. If you would like to participate, please add your comments to the discussion. Cheers! Ivanvector (talk) 19:57, 20 October 2014 (UTC)

Thank you

Thank you for inviting me at Penguin Cabal as per your suggestions I have added topicon on my userspace.— CutestPenguin^Hangout 17:43, 5 November 2014 (UTC)

AnomieBOT MIA

You'd probably notice anyway this when you get back, but just to be sure, a dozen or so of AnomieBOT's tasks are showing up as "job missing" on its status page and haven't run since late on the 26th. —Cryptic 13:28, 28 November 2014 (UTC)

• For example, the bot failed to create Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2014 November 28. --Stefan2 (talk) 14:11, 28 November 2014 (UTC)

I happened to upload a code change yesterday, which restarted it. Anomie⚔ 15:03, 29 November 2014 (UTC)

ajaxpreview

Hi! Back again, this time with a recommendation. I'm not sure where to put it in the code, but after the preview is loaded, you could run mw.hook( 'wikipage.content' ).fire($("#wikiPreview")) to re-initialize other relevant scripts that interact with page content – namely pop-ups. This way you can still get the hover previews on all the links. Best and thanks again for the awesome script! :) — MusikAnimal ^talk 03:22, 29 December 2014 (UTC)

Should be done, although I haven't tested. Anomie⚔ 14:26, 29 December 2014 (UTC)

Happy New Year!

Dear Anomie,
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! A new year has come! How times flies! 2015 will be a new year, and it is also a chance for you to start afresh! Thank you for your contributions!

previewtemplatelastmod.js on other sites

Hi, does User:Anomie/previewtemplatelastmod.js work on other sites? I tried installing it on Welsh Wikipedia, but it doesn't do anything; see cy:Defnyddiwr:Redrose64/common.js. --Redrose64 (talk) 12:18, 31 December 2014 (UTC)

• Red. You can't use importScript to call scripts from interwiki sites. It only works locally.

/* Present "Pages transcluded onto the current version of this page" with date/time of last edit, and list in reverse chronological order */
mw.loader.load( '//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Anomie/previewtemplatelastmod.js&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript' ); // Linkback: [[:en:User:Anomie/previewtemplatelastmod.js]]

Should do what you want, although you will probably have to load the stylesheet separately. — {{U|Technical 13}} ^{(e • t • c)} 12:37, 31 December 2014 (UTC)
