Cite Unseen update
[edit]Hello! Thank you for using Cite Unseen. The script recently received a significant update, detailed below.
- You can now toggle which icons you do or don't want to see. See the configuration section for details. All icons are enabled by default except for the new
generally reliable icon (described below). - New categorizations/icons:
Advocacy: Organizations that are engaged in advocacy (anything from political to civil rights to lobbying). Note that an advocacy group can be reliable; this indicator simply serves to note when a source's primary purpose is to advocate for certain positions or policies, which is important to keep in mind when consuming a source.
Editable: Sites that are editable by the public, such as wikis (Wikipedia, Fandom) or some databases (IMDb, Discogs).
Predatory journals: These sites charge publication fees to authors without checking articles for quality and legitimacy.- Perennial source categories: Cite Unseen will mark sources as generally reliable,
marginally reliable, 
generally unreliable, 
deprecated, and 
blacklisted. This is based on Wikipedia's perennial sources list, which reflects community consensus on frequently discussed sources. Sources that have multiple categorizations are marked as 
varied reliability. Note that generally reliable icons are disabled by default to reduce clutter, but you can enable them through your custom config. A special thanks to Newslinger, whose new Sourceror API provides the perennial sources list in a clean, structured format.
- With the addition of the new categorizations, the
biased source icon has been removed. This category was very broad, and repetitive to the new advocacy and perennial sources categorizations that are more informative.
If you have any feedback, requested features, or domains to add/remove, don't hesitate to bring it up on the script's talk page. Thank you! ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 23:24, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

Tvivlaren
[edit]″Tvivlaren″ adding a ″Citation needed″ tag to Swedish Americans gave me a good morning chuckle, thanks for that. --TylerBurden (talk) 08:23, 4 February 2022 (UTC)
- Haha I chose the "Doubting Tomas" ID for a reason... Same problem in the corresponding svwp article. Anyway, I often get nice response here at enwp. Thanks for positive response! Tomastvivlaren (talk) 12:36, 4 February 2022 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for your message regarding the deletion of the above article. The original PROD tagging correctly identified the concerns as being similar to the issues raised in the AfD for Comparison of risk analysis Microsoft Excel add-ins. At the time of deletion the PROD was uncontested, so the deletion was in accordance with policy. However as Pppery notes on my talk page, the issue is moot as the article is now at AfD. Best wishes.Cactus.man ✍ 11:55, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
- Well the article is now recreated and the deletion discussion formalized. I realize that the chances for keeping it are not that high, but not zero since the article now is slightly improved.Tomastvivlaren (talk) 13:45, 3 April 2023 (UTC)
Canvassing?
[edit]
It appears that you may have been canvassing—by pinging a biased (?) choice of users to notify them of an ongoing community decision, debate, or vote. While friendly notices are allowed, they should be limited and nonpartisan in distribution and should reflect a neutral point of view. Please do not post notices which are indiscriminately cross-posted, which espouse a certain point of view or side of a debate, or which are selectively sent only to those who are believed to hold the same opinion as you. Remember to respect Wikipedia's principle of consensus-building by allowing decisions to reflect the prevailing opinion among the community at large. Thank you.
Have we met? I'm curious as to how my name was selected for the ping. I look forward to your reply. — The Transhumanist 08:54, 3 April 2023 (UTC)
- Unfortunatley we have not met. I pinged you because you made large edits to the article according to its history. I pinged both users that deleted and added text to the article. Tomastvivlaren (talk) 13:41, 3 April 2023 (UTC)
Archiving at the Wayback Machine
[edit]I've made an archival copy of Comparison of JavaScript charting libraries without the tags at the top, at https://web.archive.org/web/20230403095841/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_JavaScript_charting_libraries
I hope you find it useful. — The Transhumanist 10:12, 3 April 2023 (UTC)
In case of deletion...
[edit]You should probably make a copy of the wikitext version of the article, and store it on your computer, in case it does get deleted.
Then, you could edit a copy of that to update it, for submission to deletion review. When the problems with a deleted article are fixed, they generally approve reviving the article.
Just a heads up. — The Transhumanist 10:12, 3 April 2023 (UTC)
- Thankyou The Transhumanist. I am afraid that it might come to that. A shorter list is available at List of charting software#JavaScript with frameworks that have their own Wikipedia articles. The full chart is archived at [1]. Tomastvivlaren (talk) 13:38, 3 April 2023 (UTC)
- That archival copy has the annoying notices at the top of the page. The procedure I use is this: 1) Remove the notices from the version of the article you want to archive and click "publish" (replacing the current version), 2) Immediately make the archival copy on the Wayback Machine, and then 3) Immediately revert the article back to the current version. That way, there's a clean copy at the Wayback Machine. I hope you find this procedure useful. — The Transhumanist 04:39, 5 April 2023 (UTC)
Please discuss before moving a page
[edit]I noticed you moved the Kakhovke dam article. Please check the talk page before moving a page. There was consensus to discuss page moves prior to moving. AncientWalrus (talk) 16:05, 6 June 2023 (UTC)
