SilkRoad

Hi, I saw you do a lot of editing on the Silkroad Online Article. I wanted to catch some of the old History. There was an original page that was fairly inclussive on the game play and things. I was curiou what happened to it, there is only a stub now, since you seemed invlolved with SRO I thought you might have some insight. I don't have a page of my own yet so just edit back. i'll check in again...thanks Sparta/KugeHammer33 Tuv888 (talk) 19:53, 28 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It was listed for deletion in August due to perceived NPOV and notability issues. I felt the nomination was unjustified, but in the end, had to resort to the best dissent of all: starting a perfectly good stub from scratch. Any editor may request an undeletion of the history via the deletion review process; the history would be reinstated behind the currently visible edits.

Speedy deletion

You're right, it is public domain. I think I was put off by the user's comment that it was ok to have it on Wikipedia since it passes fair use. Which of course if it was copyrighted wouldn't be true. Nevertheless I'm not sure if I should restore the article. It might be public domain but to just copy court cases to wikipedia seems kind of pointless.

COI template

Hi Matt. I saw your comment on GEO and thought you might be interested in the proposal I started suggesting we deploy the template more widely: Wikipedia:Village_pump_(proposals)#COI_Template CorporateM (Talk) 12:56, 14 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Extant Organizations/Noticeboard

Someone suggested at the Village Pump that I boldly create Wikipedia:Extant Organizations/Noticeboard, a noticeboard to discuss articles about organizations that may be subject to non-neutral editing. Basically it's the corporate version of BLPN, where both adverts and attack pages can be brought to the community for broader scrutiny. Except this board does not currently relate to a specific policy like BLPN does, except NPOV, V, etc. (though it could refer to this essay I wrote or something). You participated in the prior village pump discussion that led to consensus for Template:COI editnotice, which is now widely used. Although this noticeboard is not COI-related, I thought you might have an interest in this as well, in whether the noticeboard should be kept and/or in participating in it generally.

Hi there. Regarding your 29 protected edit requests, it may be much easier if you were a template editor. You seem to meet the guidelines. What do you say? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 14:03, 12 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Template editor granted

Your account has been granted the "templateeditor" user permission, allowing you to edit templates and modules that have been protected with template protection. It also allows you to bypass the title blacklist, giving you the ability to create and edit editnotices. Before you use this user right, please read Wikipedia:Template editor and make sure you understand its contents. In particular, you should read the section on wise template editing and the criteria for revocation.

You can use this user right to perform maintenance, answer edit requests, and make any other simple and generally uncontroversial edits to templates, modules, and edinotices. You can also use it to enact more complex or controversial edits, after those edits are first made to a test sandbox, and their technical reliability as well as their consensus among other informed editors has been established. If you are willing to process edit requests on templates and modules, keep in mind that you are taking responsibility to ensure the edits have consensus and are technically sound.

This user right gives you access to some of Wikipedia's most important templates and modules; it is critical that you edit them wisely and that you only make edits that are backed up by consensus. It is also very important that no one else be allowed to access your account, so you should consider taking a few moments to secure your password.

If you do not want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time.

Template:Infobox software

Hello

This notice is to inform you that one of your edits in Template:Infobox software that broke many articles is reverted.

~~I'd caution you that doing such breaking changes might bring about the loss of your TemplateEditor right.~~

Best regards,
Codename Lisa (talk) 08:23, 1 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Update: Additional investigation shows that the reason for the breaking change was probably not your edit but something in the backend. I've already filed a report about another backend-caused error in version number row. In any case, please be sure to flash-test every and each of your edits in the templates. That takes little of your time and ensures the proper working of the template. Best regards, Codename Lisa (talk) 08:41, 1 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Nils Bildt

Hello Matt Fitzpatrick,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Nils Bildt for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.

Template:Politics of Panama

the font size just exploded in size. there are hundreds of sidebars which are assuming the table layout for embedding content. you should at the very least fix Template:Politics sidebar title and Template:Region history sidebar title and Template:Politics sidebar title. Frietjes (talk) 00:14, 3 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

and the margins are all screwed up on many like in Politics of Angola. Frietjes (talk) 00:16, 3 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

and the text is running outside of the sidebar in Template:Sex differences on Firefox. this really should be reverted for more testing. Frietjes (talk) 00:18, 3 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Frietjes: Well, that could've gone better. Reverted; thanks for the assist. The missing margin was an oversight on my part, and is fixed in sandbox. I think there's a way to make Template:Politics sidebar title not table dependent; I'll work on that before syncing the module again. Template:Sex differences seems to be a unique case, adjusting the template's inline width style will probably fix it, but I'll add a testcase for long titles to be sure. Matt Fitzpatrick (talk) 00:51, 3 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

if you can figure out how to fix that problem in a clean way let me know. we have the same problem in Module:Military navigation where I ended up doing some invasive processing of the title line (search for "add allow wrap") to allow long links wrap in the title. Frietjes (talk) 12:08, 3 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Backlognav

I have reverted your edits to {{Backlognav inner}} and associated templates. The graphical changes and compression of the rows is very obvious to me and quite ugly, especially on CAT:CSD. Unless there is a pressing technical reason for the change, please seek consensus first, or work in a sandbox until the margins, padding, and font sizes are 100% identical.

Knock-on effects at WP:ITNC

Hi Matt - your changes to the current events template has had an effect, no doubt accidentally, on the table of contents at WP:ITNC. Compare, for example, the list of contents for September 30 and the list of contents for October 1, where we have a redundant (and non-clickable) heading "Current events of October 1, 2017 (2017-10-01) (Sunday)" followed by no fewer than seven subheadings (all useless for ITNC purposes and non-clickable) pulled from the portal's subheadings for that day. Can you fix this, please? Thanks, Bencherlite ^Talk 11:52, 5 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I forgot to come back earlier than this to say thank you for that change. Much appreciated. Bencherlite ^Talk 10:18, 10 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Edit on Template:Football box

Hello, could you please fix the template, your edit seems to have broken instances where multiple times are included. See 2018 FIFA World Cup qualification – UEFA Group C for an example. Also, could |address= be changed to |location= (matching Template:Football box collapsible)? And if the score parameters can be separated, shouldn't the penalty score do the same? Thanks, S.A. Julio (talk) 04:51, 26 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

As you have edited the football box template, perhaps you'd be so good as to either edit the 2018 ConIFA World Football Cup article to ensure that the dates are displayed correctly, or else explain precisely what you've done and how it can be fixed. Hammersfan (talk) 21:55, 26 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Seems to be an issue with the time formatting again (when the time incorrectly uses a full stop instead of a colon). The article has now been fixed by using a colon, but the template should maybe still accommodate for this (along with a tracking category/warning message for bad formatting). Thanks again! S.A. Julio (talk) 02:53, 27 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Also noticed an issue on UEFA Euro 2020, where two possible stadiums are listed. S.A. Julio (talk) 03:06, 27 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I've also noticed now that the alignment is very awkward since the date and time is left aligned. Can this be restored to right alignment? Also, the date/time and the venue seem to be slightly above the teams and score, can this be adjusted? An example of both issues can be seen on 2018–19 UEFA Nations League A. Thanks, S.A. Julio (talk) 16:43, 4 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Personally i think it just does not look good. Why the change? Kante4 (talk) 19:46, 4 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@S.A. Julio: I overlooked the cellpadding on the previous version's one-cell "tables". The replacement divs should now have equivalent top and bottom padding. @Kante4: Last week, I couldn't think of a way to right-align the date and time in desktop and left-align it in mobile, without abusing one-cell "tables" and making any sort of future TemplateStyles upgrade difficult. But I think I have an idea how to do it now. I'll try it over the weekend. Matt Fitzpatrick (talk) 22:57, 6 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Upcoming changes to wikitext parsing

Hello,

There will be some changes to the way wikitext is parsed during the next few weeks. It will affect all namespaces. You can see a list of pages that may display incorrectly at Special:LintErrors. Since most of the easy problems have already been solved at the English Wikipedia, I am specifically contacting tech-savvy editors such as yourself with this one-time message, in the hope that you will be able to investigate the remaining high-priority pages during the next month.

There are approximately 10,000 articles (and many more non-article pages) with high-priority errors. The most important ones are the articles with misnested tags and table problems. Some of these involve templates, such as infoboxes, or the way the template is used in the article. In some cases, the "error" is a minor, unimportant difference in the visual appearance. In other cases, the results are undesirable. You can see a before-and-after comparison of any article by adding ?action=parsermigration-edit to the end of a link, like this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthur_Foss?action=parsermigration-edit (which shows a difference in how {{infobox ship}} is parsed).

If you are interested in helping with this project, please see Wikipedia:Linter. There are also some basic instructions (and links to even more information) at https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-ambassadors/2018-April/001836.html You can also leave a note at WT:Linter if you have questions.

Google Code-In 2019 is coming - please mentor some documentation tasks!

Hello,

Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.

I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!

From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.

If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.

Thank you!

trivial and not convinced

Re your edit [4] and similar. You did not provide a source that states this "reading order". Also, of course the top reading line has the "F' (unless your reading order has a jump upwards in a line?). Just as well one could read lines in the order "F, H, R, S". Or clockwise, starting top or leftmost. Who knows.

Also, changing templates while it has absolutey no effect [5] is trivial, and should not be done. -DePiep (talk) 16:07, 25 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
