Community Wishlist Survey votes[edit]

Hi Jonesey95, Thanks for participating in the Wishlist Survey! I'm sorry that this wasn't clear -- this is the proposals phase of the survey, when people are posting and discussing proposals. The voting phase starts in a couple weeks, on November 28th. We're not counting votes that are cast early, because the proposals can change during this phase, and you might end up voting for something that changes in a way that you didn't expect. I've added some text at the top of the page, explaining this better.

I don't want people to see your Support votes and get confused, so I'm going to change the Support template in your message to "Good idea". If that response doesn't work for you, then feel free to change it. Sorry again about the confusion -- I'm really glad that you're participating. I hope you keep coming back to discuss and improve proposals, and you'll have a chance to vote starting on Nov 28th. Let me know if you have any questions.

Template:Reflist-talk[edit]

Hahaha. Thanx. I knew this wiki was missing Reflist-talk and I just tried to install it here... and discovered that I missed by just a few days :D

I brought over the /doc page to go with it. Alsee (talk) 01:06, 19 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The Community Wishlist Survey[edit]

Hi,

You get this message because you’ve previously participated in the Community Wishlist Survey. I just wanted to let you know that this year’s survey is now open for proposals. You can suggest technical changes until 11 November: Community Wishlist Survey 2019.

You can vote from November 16 to November 30. To keep the number of messages at a reasonable level, I won’t send out a separate reminder to you about that. /Johan (WMF) 11:24, 30 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Community Wishlist Survey 2021: Invitation[edit]

The 2021 Community Wishlist Survey is now open! This survey is the process where communities decide what the Community Tech team should work on over the next year. We encourage everyone to submit proposals until the deadline on 30 November, or comment on other proposals to help make them better. The communities will vote on the proposals between 8 December and 21 December.

The Community Tech team is focused on tools for experienced Wikimedia editors. You can write proposals in any language, and we will translate them for you. Thank you, and we look forward to seeing your proposals!

Community Wishlist Survey 2021[edit]

We invite all registered users to vote on the 2021 Community Wishlist Survey. You can vote from now until 21 December for as many different wishes as you want.

In the Survey, wishes for new and improved tools for experienced editors are collected. After the voting, we will do our best to grant your wishes. We will start with the most popular ones.

We, the Community Tech, are one of the Wikimedia Foundation teams. We create and improve editing and wiki moderation tools. What we work on is decided based on results of the Community Wishlist Survey. Once a year, you can submit wishes. After two weeks, you can vote on the ones that you're most interested in. Next, we choose wishes from the survey to work on. Some of the wishes may be granted by volunteer developers or other teams.

We are waiting for your votes. Thank you!

I think you meant to write "decided" with quotation marks around it. The two most relevant proposals to my work were marked as out of scope, so editors will not get a chance to express their support for them. Jonesey95 (talk) 16:44, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

a weird but unintentional error[edit]

Hi @Jonesey95, I just noticed that while fixing a linter error on Template:Project/Rapid/Application/Movement Strategy Grants, you had inadvertently removed a lot of the important content from this template, which was recently reverted by YPam. I have removed one absolute tag but it appears that there is still one tag missing end tag, and I hope you might be able to look at it. Best, ─ The Aafī ^{^(talk)} 17:42, 21 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the notification, and thank you to YPam (WMF) for reverting this error. I honestly don't know how this could have happened. Jonesey95 (talk) 19:50, 21 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Linter error[edit]

Hi @Jonesey95, I am not sure if you'd be comfortable with this, could you please help me identify the linter error on this? It is coming from this template. Best regards, ─ The Aafī ^{^(talk)} 15:42, 25 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

If you are able to do it, please just get me the corrected syntax here and I will update the template. ─ The Aafī ^{^(talk)} 15:43, 25 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Right-to-left languages do not work very well on my computer, but it appears that the problem is that when the File: call in the template is expanded, you end up with:

[[File:Recep Tayyip Erdogan in Ukraine.jpg|120px||[[ترکیہ کے صدارتی انتخابات، 2023ء]]|alt=[[ترکیہ کے صدارتی انتخابات، 2023ء]]|ربط=فائل:Recep Tayyip Erdogan in Ukraine.jpg]]

Note the blank space after "120px", which I believe is caused by "حد" being present but blank in the template on that page. If you add a valid value for "حد" or remove the parameter, you may eliminate the error. If this same problem is happening in many transclusions, you can remove that parameter in each transclusion, or you can change the template to use #if statements. If you need an example of how this works, I may be able to find one on the English Wikipedia. امن, Jonesey95 (talk) 00:18, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. The template appears to use the #if statements, afaics. I copied the adjacent en-wiki template to here and tried using it here and it has entirely made the image disappear. I feel I should take sometime of tech guys at Wikimania and have other issues resolved as well. ─ The Aafī ^{^(talk)} 16:49, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Jonesey95: Anything strange that you find on this page? I see there is a certain div end tag missing but I am not able to locate it. ─ The Aafī ^{^(talk)} 10:05, 4 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The header template opens a div that is left unclosed at the end of the page. You could add a /div after the last section, but then any new topic would be outside of the blue background formatting. There is no good fix for this. One workaround is to remove the open div from the header, which would remove the blue background from the talk page contents. I recommend focusing on unclosed in-line formatting first, like i and b and small tags. They are easier to resolve. Jonesey95 (talk) 12:00, 4 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
