Java articles

Thanks for the work on the Java articles. I had a lot of the cleanup you've done on my "to do" list. – Doug Bell ^{talk•contrib} 23:24, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

References columns width

I've undone the change you made here to the width of the columns in Apple Inc.'s references section. For those of use whose displays are less than 1500 pixels across (i.e. most editors), this change reduced a list of over a hundred references to a single column.

KVIrc

Hi! I've noticed that you have redirected the KVIrc page to the comparison of IRC clients. For sure it's better than before :) I have worked on the article in my sandbox in order to add verifiability and notability sources. I have also started some discussions about the previous removal here. The user that removed the page in the first instance doesn't seem to be very active so I can't get much feedback. Would you mind taking a look and eventually commenting on this ? Pragma2 (talk) 19:13, 20 October 2010 (UTC)

Hi, I already noticed your sandbox and was actually considering adding content to it already. I shall take a closer look at the comment thread you mention. Thanks for stopping by. Uzume (talk) 06:58, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Text no longer wrapping in {{Beyond the Standard Model}}

I think this might be related to your recent changes to {{Sidebar}} or {{Sidebar with collapsible lists}}. Is there a change we need to make in {{Beyond the Standard Model}} to have this work correctly? Thanks, Celestra (talk) 03:07, 29 February 2012 (UTC)

I am sorry. I spent time and looked at this (including previewing that template with various sandbox version of the sidebars, etc.) but I am unable to figure out what text was wrapping before. None of the edits I did to those templates was related to wrapping. {{sidebar}} states in the documentation that nowrap is turned on by default and on the talk page there is some discussion about someone adding an option to turn that off and how dubious it was to have it on by default to begin with. Maybe I cannot see it due to my browser or screen size or something but perhaps you can try: |wraplinks=true. I hope this helps. Uzume (talk) 06:40, 1 March 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for looking at it. I didn't mean to cause you so much effort; I was hoping you would just know the answer. I'll see if I can reproduce the wrapping by going back to the state of the templates on the day I worked the edit request. If anything interesting comes out of it, I'll let you know. Thanks again, Celestra (talk) 07:23, 1 March 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: ActivePerl

Hello Uzume. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of ActivePerl, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: I think this move could do with some more discussion. Could you file a requested move? Thank you. — Mr. Stradivarius ^{(have a chat)} 16:33, 20 August 2012 (UTC)

User pages

Hi, Uzume. Please don't edit other people's user pages, like you did on User:Dajnel. User's are generally allowed full discretion over how to format and organize their pages, so you shouldn't be altering templates or formatting on them. Qwyrxian (talk) 13:32, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

I assume you mean User:Danjel since there is no such page User:Dajnel. The user is free to update/revert anything there of course. Uzume (talk) 13:35, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

Sorry, I did mean Danjel. Again, though, you shouldn't under any circumstances be editing another user's user page, unless it's to remove vandalism, to fix some other policy problem (like removing copyright violations), or if they specifically ask you. Qwyrxian (talk) 13:37, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

I suppose you should not revert any edits there then unless you specifically know the edit was not asked for by the user either since reverts are technically an edit too. Uzume (talk) 13:40, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

In the absence of evidence on the user talk page, a revert is correct...especially since I could tell that you were "fixing" the way they had formatted their external links. Is there some reason why you're fighting on this issue? All you need to do is not edit other user's user pages. I don't see the harm in this widely accepted prohibition. Qwyrxian (talk) 14:07, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

I was not trying to fix any external links. Rather I was trying to update/disambiguate .NET Messenger Service to Microsoft Messenger service since the article moved (based on Microsoft's change in the naming of the service). I am not sure why you think I am "fighting" anything. I was only responding to your comments on my talk page. I am well aware of Wikipedia policy having been around more than four years before you even. WP:UP#OWN (and more specifically WP:NOBAN) say nothing about one should not edit other user's pages and in fact says it can be done if the edit is considered helpful as I felt mine was. Uzume (talk) 14:10, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

Nested virtualization

Hello, Uzmue

I wanted to drop you a note about this edit but hope this note don't turn out impolite, because I am in a hurry. I am afraid your edit does not correspond to our rules and policies. Let's see why.

First, Search engine test is one the most famous invalid reasons for an edit. Number of Google hits (or Bing hits) for a search results does not replace the need for a source. If there are valid results there, it is you who should "take your pick"; and please be careful that your pick conforms to the requirements of Wikipedia:Reliable sources. Remember, contents without a reliable source are challenged or removed. That is our policy.

Second, "there is a redirect to it". Given the fact that the redirect is created by none other than you yourself, a bad redirect does not satisfy the source requirements nor warrants adding contents to the wrong article. This problem is easy to fix: Contribute the contents to the correct article (with source, of course) and then change the redirect to that article.

Finally, have you studied WP:BRD or WP:EW articles? Please do so.

Best regards,
Codename Lisa (talk) 00:13, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

I am not sure the edit does not correspond to our rules and policies (though I agree a source would be useful not all contributions require one, e.g., I do not need to cite grammar to contribute to an article's grammatical accuracy; in many cases it does not make sense). For one, neither of us has entered into WP:EW (and yes, I have read and even helped participate the in development of those--you will note my earliest edits on this account go back to early 2004) territory yet. WP:BRD recommends ones own bold edit over just reverting and further discussing on the article's talk page--neither of which either of us did. I did no worse (nor admittedly better) as I just reverted your edit. You admit you are hurried but I find the worst edits are made by people in a hurry (and the most common are reversions as they are "easy" but not necessarily right; you probably should have just added {{Citation needed}} instead of reverting and removing the content). In any event, as per WP:BRD, I have now found a potentially "Most Interested Person". In that light, I recommend you do what you should have done in the first place and move such discussion to the article's talk page (if you are not interested in the topic you shouldn't make edits including reversions unless you believe them to be vandalism or spam, etc.). I have taken the initiative: Talk:Virtualization#Nested virtualization. Thanks, Uzume (talk) 14:05, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

Hello. My friend, if I wanted to accuse you of edit warring or violation of BRD, I would have said so directly. I didn't say so; hence, I believe you didn't edit-war.

I also agree that not everything needs a source. WP:V has elaborated on what needs source and what doesn't. A far-fetched claim like "nested virtualization" definitely needs source. (Virtual machine inside virtual machine? Seriously...)

As for the use of {{citation needed}}, I go by Jimmy Wales' advice:

There seems to be a terrible bias among some editors that some sort of random speculative "I heard it somewhere" pseudo information is to be tagged with a "needs a cite" tag. Wrong. It should be removed, aggressively, unless it can be sourced.

— Jimmy Wales, Zero information is preferred to misleading or false information

Best regards,
Codename Lisa (talk) 14:41, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

If you agree not everything needs a source why did you revert my contribution with the comment "All contributions need a source; a reliable one"? Yes, I agree. It seems far-fetched to need a source with regards to nested virtualization as it is just a virtual machine inside a virtual machine concept (recursion of the virtualization concept). That said, you reverted my contributions to the topic twice now so evidently you seem to want a source for that. If not, perhaps you can clarify why you have removed the content repeatedly.

As for Wales concept of aggressively removing obscure content, I am not in argument but it does not take much work to check if a topic is obscure enough to barely meet the "I heard it somewhere" level. With 27K+ hits on Google, I would say it is not obscure enough to meet the aggressive removal level. If that is the case then it should not be aggressively removed and becomes harder to determine if it should be removed and that is where reliable (and not just lots of) sources come into play. You will note even Jimmy Wales qualifies his assertion with further comment:

If you see an unsourced statement that would be libel if false, and it makes you feel suspicious enough to want to tag it as {{citation needed}}, please do not do that! Please just remove the statement and ask a question on the talk page.

— Jimmy Wales, Zero information is preferred to misleading or false information

Based on this you can see his original comment was in reference to WP:BLP (where "libel" can come into play). Also notice this reply was in direct response to "Seems like perfectly straightforward collaborative editing to me, dividing labor between proofreading and doing the actual problem-fixing work." Jimmy appears to agree with this saying "There is nothing wrong with this". Blindly reverting the addition of content is just as bad as blindly adding content. I see your edits as prohibitive with respect to division of labor between contributing content, proofreading and providing reliable sources (which is part of "problem-fixing").

If you are not interested in the content enough to qualify as a "Most Interested Person", that only underscores the need for you to not remove content you have not researched. I have provided considerable substance for including "nested virtualization" content on the aforementioned article's talk page. If you still dispute or otherwise are interested in discussing the matter please reply there. If you are not, please revert your edit removing the content I added so I can continue to develop it without repeated reverts that makes me approach edit warring territory. Thank you.

Page mover granted

Hello, Uzume. Your account has been granted the "extendedmover" user right, either following a request for it or demonstrating familiarity with working with article names and moving pages. You are now able to rename pages without leaving behind a redirect, and move subpages when moving the parent page(s).

Please take a moment to review Wikipedia:Page mover for more information on this user right, especially the criteria for moving pages without leaving redirect. Please remember to follow post-move cleanup procedures and make link corrections where necessary, including broken double-redirects when suppressredirect is used. This can be done using Special:WhatLinksHere. 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. As with all user rights, be aware that if abused, or used in controversial ways without consensus, your page mover status can be revoked.

If you do not want the page mover right anymore, just let me know, and I'll remove it. Thank you, and happy editing! Malinaccier (talk) 13:11, 6 September 2017 (UTC)

New Page Reviewing

Hello, Uzume. I've seen you editing recently and you seem knowledgeable about Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Would you please consider becoming a New Page Reviewer? Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time but it requires a good understanding of Wikipedia policies and guidelines; currently Wikipedia needs experienced users at this task. (After gaining the flag, patrolling is not mandatory. One can do it at their convenience). But kindly read the tutorial before making your decision.

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!

Template editor

Hello Uzume, would you be interested in the template editor user right? You seem to meet the criteria. Regards — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 22:32, 1 February 2020 (UTC)

I believe my interest in such is a given considering the request I made (and was denied) less than five months ago: Special:PermanentLink/916510280 —Uzume (talk) 02:31, 3 February 2020 (UTC)

I was not aware of that request — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 11:00, 4 February 2020 (UTC)

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.

If you were granted the permission on a temporary basis you will need to re-apply for the permission a few days before it expires including in your request a permalink to the discussion where it was granted and a {{ping}} for the administrator who granted the permission. You can find the permalink in your rights log.

Speedy deletion nomination of Windows App SDK

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Windows App SDK requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/apps/windows-app-sdk/. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Changes to Module:Wd

Just letting you know that some scope changes you made to Module:Wd broke the module, as seen on BBC. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 00:11, 16 June 2023 (UTC)

@ElijahPepe: I don't see any issues (on BBC or otherwise)—perhaps you'd care to point out what you are talking about? Thanks, —Uzume (talk) 02:19, 16 June 2023 (UTC)

@Uzume: Take a look at the infobox. The website field uses Template:Official URL, which itself uses this module. What's returned is some sort of HTML for Scribunto errors which references line 161 of Module:Wd. Seems like there might be a forward declaration error there. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 02:29, 16 June 2023 (UTC)

@ElijahPepe: That is odd. If I add *"{{Official URL}}" after the infobox and preview the issues goes away. —Uzume (talk) 02:39, 16 June 2023 (UTC)

@ElijahPepe: I may have fixed it now. Thanks for the report .—Uzume (talk) 03:07, 16 June 2023 (UTC)

I am not very happy with your recent edits to Module:Wd. You should not be adding untested code to live modules. Please ensure all your changes are fully tested in Module:Wd/sandbox first. Other guidelines on discussion and seeking consensus are described at Wikipedia:Template editor. Thank you — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 13:55, 16 June 2023 (UTC)

@MSGJ: Yes, I was not too pleased by that either but that is the nature of the beast when a module starts generating errors due to changes in a different module (related to scope of variables). If you'd prefer, in the future I can just leave it broken for others to fix. Sadly, these are not the types of changes that can be easily tested in a sandbox. —Uzume (talk) 14:26, 16 June 2023 (UTC)

Of course it is possible to test code in the sandbox first. If you are unable or unwilling to do this, then you really should not be editing high-use templates and modules. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 21:43, 21 June 2023 (UTC)

Hello Uzume, I noticed three error messages in these search results. After some time I noticed you changed the Module:Wd. I don't understand in detail what happened, but the time the errors appeared matches the time of the changes on the modul, so I suppose there is a connection. --Kallichore (talk) 14:44, 16 June 2023 (UTC)

@Kallichore: I do not see any errors in those quoted search results and I believe that issue was already reported by ElijahPepe and has been corrected. Thank you, —Uzume (talk) 14:50, 16 June 2023 (UTC)

Yes, the errors don't appear anymore. I don't know who fixed the problem, but thanks anyway. --Kallichore (talk) 14:56, 16 June 2023 (UTC)

@Kallichore: The problem was fixed before your report and you were likely just seeing issues leftover in the page caching. Try doing a WP:NULLEDIT to flush them. —Uzume (talk) 15:01, 16 June 2023 (UTC)

Nomination for deletion of Template:ALGOL programming/doc

Template:ALGOL programming/doc has been nominated for deletion. You are invited to comment on the discussion at the entry on the Templates for discussion page. Gonnym (talk) 15:52, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

Template:Cite/doc

Hello, Uzume,

This is not an obvious candidate for speedy deletion as it seems like a valid redirect with an existing target page. If you believe it should be deleted, could you make a request of an administrator who works with templates, like those who participate at TFD? I just patrol CSD categories and I don't believe it met CSD criteria but then, I don't do much work with templates. An admin who does, would know for sure but they do not patrol speedy deletion categories to review tagged pages. Thank you. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 01:48, 4 April 2024 (UTC)

@Liz: The redirect itself is valid but reason for the page is to be documentation for the base template which is no longer really a template as it is now a redirect itself so any would be documentation even redirected is useless. It is an orphaned template /doc page (redirect or not). —Uzume (talk) 01:57, 4 April 2024 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of SQX

The article SQX has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-notable file format, unable to find something for this to meet WP:GNG. Article has been unreferenced and pretty much unchanged since creation in 2006.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Schützenpanzer (Talk) 23:06, 10 September 2024 (UTC)

@Schützenpanzer: {{prod2}} seemed more appropriate. Thank you, —Uzume (talk) 04:03, 11 September 2024 (UTC)

Invitation to participate in a research

Hello,

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Wikipedia, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.

You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.

The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .

Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.

Kind Regards,
