Template:Catholic Prayers and nowraplinks

Howdy, I had added the {{nowraplinks}} to the {{Catholic Prayers}} in this edit because the third group was definitely wrapping when I viewed it. I left a note over at Template_talk:Nowraplinks#nowraplinks_question_for_Template:Catholic_Prayers to see if it just me or a more widespread issue. — MrDolomite • Talk 15:31, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Cuisine

Hi. Noticed the following:

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template%3ACuisine&diff=229189879&oldid=229186607

Although the lists of links in this template aren't particularly long, I don't think "nowraplinks" manages the same linewrap handling as {{nowrap begin}}..{{·w}}..{{nowrap end}}. I'm going by my understanding of Wikipedia:Line break handling, in particular Wikipedia:Line break handling#Nowraplinks shortcomings. Sardanaphalus (talk) 12:41, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, those have different bahaviour. But "nowraplinks" class does enough job in this case without special coding. Do you have linewrap problem with the current template? If not, simpler code is better, I think. --fryed-peach (talk) 14:39, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

template

Hi I'm editing the catalan wikipedia and I have seen that you have edited that template: Template:Railway line header. Do you know how to do to hide railway tables as a default option? Thanks--Vilarrubla (talk) 20:01, 18 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

G-Data

Hi! I removed your speedy deletion tag from G-Data. It's a redirect to an existing article, and you tagged it as patent nonsense. Clearly, a working redirect is not "incoherent text or gibberish with no meaningful content", so deletion under G1 is not applicable. I encourage you to take another look at the speedy deletion criteria and remember that if a page doesn't unambiguously fit any of the criteria listed, it can't be speedily deleted and should be taken to another forum (in this case, Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion) instead. Regards, Jafeluv (talk) 12:07, 17 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. --fryed-peach (talk) 15:14, 17 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Re: WebGL

Hi, you say in WebGL that it's a standard. I don't believe that it is a standard, or else it's the implementation of Canvas 3D, but it itself is more of an extension. I don't know the details and may be wrong. If you do know though I think it would be good if you could clarify which standard etc (& support with references), or else, take out the claim and let later people fill in those details.

Thanks and regards, User:JeffDonner —Preceding undated comment added 16:30, 14 September 2009 (UTC).[reply]

WebGL is standardized under Khronos Group. --fryed-peach (talk) 16:39, 14 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being minor in the usual way.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. With the script in place, you can continue with this functionality indefinitely (its use is governed by WP:MINOR). If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 18:42, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Infobox IPA/core2

Here you edit saying "too narrow". Where or when is that? I just reduced it to 17.5 btw. -DePiep (talk) 19:52, 12 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

File:Infoboxforlang.png

Please do not add this image to the Writing Systems infobox without gaining consensus on the talk page. As of right now, the consensus is that this image is distracting and wasteful of space, and fails to add any meaningful content or organization to the infobox. I will not be watching your talk page, so if you have any questions, please respond on my talk page or contribute to the discussion on the infobox talk page. Van Isaac_WS^contribs 14:35, 22 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Oops. My bad. For some reason, I think I read those changes backwards every once in a while. Van Isaac_WS^contribs 15:35, 22 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Mountain View Cur

Can you look at the template:infobox dogbreed at Mountain View Cur and try to fix the syntax for the image? If I leave out the |thumb portion then the image is too large but if I put it in then it messes up the formatting of the box. Thank you. RJFJR (talk) 00:28, 31 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I modified it a bit. Is it OK? --fryed-peach (talk) 01:51, 31 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Looks good. Thank you. RJFJR (talk) 14:15, 31 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Edits to Template:Clade

Hi, could you please explain why you made the edits you did to Template:Clade? It worked fine as it was, and although your version makes better use of CSS, the previous version wasn't actually wrong. Peter coxhead (talk) 07:22, 29 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

My edit is a little cleanup, and I have no further reason. --fryed-peach (talk) 07:28, 29 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ok; I wondered if you thought it would improve efficiency. When you edit a template which has a sandbox version, as this one does, please:

Edit the sandbox version first (here Template:Clade/sandbox) and check that all the test cases (here Template:Clade/testcases) produce exactly the same output.
When you are satisfied that this is the case, copy the sandbox version to the real version.

As you've left it, the sandbox version is the old one. I will fix this myself, so you don't need to do anything more. Peter coxhead (talk) 09:13, 29 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox dam

There is something at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Geographical coordinates about problems caused by an edit you made. I don't understand it well enough to fix it myself. Thanks. Zero^talk 12:53, 21 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Wikilinking

Hi, and thanks for your work on the English Wikipedia. Just a short note to point out that we don’t normally link:

dates
years
commonly known geographical terms (including well-known country-names), and
common terms you’d look up in a dictionary (unless significantly technical).

This even applies for infoboxes, too.

Thanks and my best wishes.

Ways to improve Dislike

Hi, I'm Elliot321. Fryed-peach, thanks for creating Dislike!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. This page is written like an essay. It is not fit for an encyclopedia.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.

Nomination of Dislike for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Dislike is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dislike until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Killer Moff (talk) 14:44, 29 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
