Unblock of 2017 #1

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

PokestarFan (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

I will be more contributing. I want to fight vandalisim, which seems to be everywhere nowadays. Also have around 75K edits from Wikidata.

Decline reason:

Looking at your contributions, it seems that the vast majority of them have been to your user or user talk pages, and only 12 have been in article space [1], and most of them weren't particularly useful. Indeed, since posting this unblock request, you have continued refactoring this talk page [2]. Other than a vague promise to "fight vandalism" (without giving any indication that you understand what vandalism is), and no suggestion that you intend to build the encyclopedia, I see no reason to unblock you at this time. Optimist on the run (talk) 13:21, 13 March 2017 (UTC)

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Could you start by detailing exactly why you were blocked, and how you propose to rectify the behaviour that led to this? Optimist on the run (talk) 19:31, 11 March 2017 (UTC)

@Optimist on the run: I got blocked for using Wikipedia as a social site, and now I will contribute on articles. PokestarFan (talk) 20:09, 11 March 2017 (UTC)
I reviewed some of those Wikidata edits. I assume you are aware that you introduced a dozen or so errors each to all of your most heavily edited items? I'm not impressed by such a "quantity over quality" approach. Huon (talk) 19:49, 11 March 2017 (UTC)
@Huon: What? I am not aware of that. Can you please link some examples? PokestarFan (talk) 20:09, 11 March 2017 (UTC)
You added labels to year articles for various languages that don't use Latin characters, say literary Chinese. I'm pretty sure that the label of, say, 2221 in Chinese is not "2221" but... something in Chinese characters. Huon (talk) 20:32, 11 March 2017 (UTC)
@Huon:Numbers in Chinese do not have translations[1]. For example, 2221 is 2221 in Chinese, but year 2221 is 2221年. If you want characters, I will change the Chinese translation to say 2221年. PokestarFan (talk) 21:42, 11 March 2017 (UTC)

I'll move the off-topic discussion to your Wikidata talk page. Huon (talk) 22:08, 11 March 2017 (UTC)

Tech News: 2017-11

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Changes this week

  • You will be able to show references from <references /> tags in more than one column on your wiki. This is the list of footnotes for the sources in the article. How many columns you see will depend on how big your screen is. On some wikis, some templates already do this. Templates that use <references /> tags will need to be updated, and then later the change can happen for all reference lists. [3][4]
  • The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 14 March. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 15 March. It will be on all wikis from 16 March (calendar).

Meetings

  • You can join the next meeting with the VisualEditor team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. The meeting will be on 14 March at 19:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Future changes

  • Some old web browsers will not be able to use JavaScript on Wikimedia wikis in the future. If you have an old web browser on your computer you can upgrade to a newer version. [5]
  • CSS in templates will be stored in a separate page in the future. [6][7]

Wikidata weekly summary #251

Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.
  • Development
    • Converted undo/restore interface to use OOUI. You can test it here (phab:T134643).
    • Fixed an other rounding issue on geo coordinates (phab:T158772).
    • Added thumbnail images to the Wikimedia Commons suggester (phab:T160319).
    • Continued working on introducing Lexeme entity type.
    • Finishing federation prototype.
    • We are going to change all snak, reference, and qualifier hashes with the planned DataModel 7.0 release. If you are a tool developer, make sure you do not persist hashes, and never use them to request edits to entities. Statement IDs are safe (phab:T157965).
    • Removed unnecessary CSS on ooui special pages (phabricator:T159702)
    • Allowed example queries to be searched for SPARQL commands (phabricator:T154768)
    • Converted Wikibase interface for undoing/restoring a revision to OOUI (phabricator:T134643)
    • Converted image header user script to gadget (phabricator:T159929)
    • Started writing spec for technical data model for Wiktionary support (phabricator:T150785)
    • Worked on providing API for constraint check (phabricator:T102757)
