Thank you!

That's for dropping in during your vacation to restart the database!

The page, since edited by another editor, is https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Janebnkone/sandbox&action=history

It is a VisualEditor issue (thanks for removing it from Editing QA, I didn't realise it's up to the teams to sort that out) and seems to only apply to the editor's sandbox, rather than mainspace.

One editor reports that the problem is persisting. They have tried with Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge and are running Windows 10.

I would love to have the tours functioning on Wikidata.

@Richard_Nevell_WMUK dashboard looks fine to me now. Do you still have troubles?

With T195751 fixed, will ArticlePlaceholders show up in Special:Search once the extension is configured for nowiki?

Thank you!

If they're still logged in, the best way would probably to post the request on-wiki, ideally include the email in the request, so there's no doubt in the request being valid.

Why not, if they are still logged in? What happens when they go to Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-personal-email ?

That requires passing "You must log in again to verify that you are Martin Urbanec." dialog, which requires their password.

Also applies to the follow up message

Organising WLM can be quite draining, especially for the international team and doubly so because many of the tools like Montage are also used for other photography competitions so there are lots of demands on their time. The last three months has seen the announcement of the international winners, and lots of work around that in terms of coordinating the various competitions and sharing the news. The WLM have been busy to say the least!
We're seven months away from the start of WLM 2018 so we have time on our side - though decisions about how to deal with separate contests for regions and countries would need to be settled head of then to help with promoting and organising contests.
There are three questions at the top of this thread, so I'll try to provide some thoughts on them.

Wikimedia UK supports two courses which use the extension, but neither should be running before September/October. What is the earliest the extension would be undeployed on the English Wikipedia?

We now have five citation templates:

Sorry, I should have made it clear I don't expect and answer now - I was leaving the question here to deal with at a later date. Thank you to the international team for the hard work you've put into the competition!

For 2018, if the UK's constituent countries each chose their top 10 would they each go through to the international competition?

The templates are set up so that there is a main author ("last", "first") a field for "other author" (ùghdar_eile), and a field to be used when there are multiple "other authors" (ùghdaran_eile). Both of those are in the data maps, but might not be obvious becuase they don't follow the "last", "first" format. Would that need to be changed?

Thanks for putting this together, it will be very useful. And I hope the hackathon goes well!

I've prepared maps for the other three templates:

Echoing what Stinglehammer said, this would be a big improvement to the user experience, and it would also be used at other institutions - Aberystwythand the Open University are two likely partners, and anyone who wants to run translation projects would really benefit.

Hi RobH thanks for setting the list up - it will still be useful for post-conference discussions so we'll keep it running. I've got the email with the admin password.

Great! If no one spots anything in the meantime, I'll work on the other templates next week.

Thank you, Mvolz.

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thought I included it all? Anyway...

Has this feature been activated on Wikipedia yet?

The focus will be on en.wikipedia.org (commons and wikidata might be peripheral but much less likely)

Thanks for letting me know, I'll see what can be done about uploading a new version of the file.

Does anyone know what the issue with the thumbnail is and how it can be fixed?

Just an idea, but would it be appropriate to have a banner on Wikimedia Commons linking to the blog post when it goes live?

Yes

Mea culpa - the event takes place on 5th March

Thanks @CKoerner_WMF for putting the announcement together. It covers the main points and I think linking to the Smithsonian and the ESA will really show why this is an important step.

Depending on when the announcement would go out I might be able to chip in with the writing

Hello, the address is 158.94.102.88

It is possible the address is 158.94.254.114 but we haven't been able to confirm it

Thank you!

Thanks Matiia, I lost the link while pasting into the plain text box

Still operating on 2016 time. I can confirm that the dates are 13 and 20 January *2017*. Thank you for the very quick work.

Sorry for the short notice. The network was set up today especially so we didn't have details in advance

I was surprised to find that MIE is still on my computer after I moved to Edge! Wow, another gem in life uncovered ;). But it's an app, not sure if it's the same.

I can however confirm the bug:

• I go to https://tools.wmflabs.org/montage-beta/#/login
• I click on 'sign in using Wikimedia account'
• I'm sent to metawiki to log in
• after completing login on metawiki, I'm sent back to the identical login screen on https://tools.wmflabs.org/montage-beta/#/login
• after clicking the sign in button again, it just refreshes the page (after showing a waiting symbol for a second or two) and shows me the login screen again on https://tools.wmflabs.org/montage-beta/#/login - not taking me to meta again.

In the MIE console I see the following warnings:

• DOM7011: The code on this page disabled back and forward caching. For more information, see: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=291337 montage-beta

Thank you @LilyOfTheWest those points are very helpful!

I've started a draft here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Richard_Nevell_(WMUK)/sandbox

I've had an update: the IP addresses are 217.138.7.29 and 217.138.7.30.

I've checked and I'm happy that's the address

ah I see now. I'll double check and get back to you.
