I'm just an ordinary wiki user (not an admin, steward, sysadmin, developer, etc.). My home wiki is the English Wikipedia, but I have accounts on almost every Wikimedia wiki, with e-mail notifications turned on.

I help maintain m:Wikimedia_News and en:Wikipedia:Milestone_statistics, so I watch various projects and tags around here to stay on top of relevant changes.

Dcljr added a comment to T235818: null edits should not trigger edit rate limiting (or use a higher limit).

Still running into this issue. This time on shnwikibooks, which experienced a large drop in content-page count in the day since it was created with no obvious on-wiki activity that would justify that drop (e.g., removal of links on regular pages or in templates, or page deletions or moves out of the main namespace). So I'm null-editing all pages in the main namespace to see if that drops the count even further.

Dcljr added a comment to T259360: Cognate doesn't properly create interwiki links for Shawiya Wiktionary (shy.wiktionary.org).

Note that this is still a problem even when interlanguage links are "manually" added to pages. For example, adding the link "[[shy:raisin]]" on (say) the German Wiktionary entry for "raisin" results in the wikilink "shy:raisin" showing up in the page content rather than creating an interlanguage link in the sidebar, whereas adding, say, [[af:raisin]] there does result in an interlanguage link in the sidebar (note that there's no such page in the afwiktionary, but that's beside the point). Does this mean it's not purely a Cognate issue? (I have no idea.)

Dcljr added a comment to T228552: "Content pages" link on Special:Statistics includes &hideredirects=1 though miser mode is enabled on wiki.

The second option would be fine for wikis using the 'any' article-count method, but I'm afraid it would be just as confusing as the current link on wikis using the 'link' method (since there's no way to filter out dead-end pages in the list).

Dcljr added a comment to T103281: "What links here" for article sections.

@Danbloch Not being familiar with MediaWiki code, I'm wondering if/how your modifications work with multiple sections linked to from the same article (IOW, if article "A" links to both "B#First" and "B#Second"). Is it not necessary to worry about this, given how other parts of the code work?

FYI: The wiki will be recounted the morning of January 15, 2020 (c. 5am UTC). At that time, the article count should jump up to around 6,360 (plus however many lemmas are created in the meantime).

Dcljr added a project to T234458: Confusing large differences in number of "Content pages" on thwikisource in 2019 (between 7600 and 12500 pages): Wikimedia-maintenance-script-run.

Just throwing this out there: perhaps refreshLinks.php should be run on thwikisource (followed by InitSiteStats.php), just to make sure there are no inconsistencies in internal linking records that might have some effect on what is being discussed in this task. (I don't think it would fix the problem, but "it couldn't hurt", right?)

Actually, might as well run 'namespaceDupes.php'. It's easier that way.

@Dcljr Okay. You managed to disable that template, but what about 352,404 articles that is using this one — Шаблон:Кратак опис?

If we just disable it, then it leaves a large number of articles using it for no reason. So the question is: Should the template be massively removed from articles or will and can a local exception be created for sr.wiki?

Dcljr added a comment to T240746: Enable {{SHORTDESC: }} magic word on sr.wiki.

@Acamicamacaraca: Because the {{SHORTDESC}} magic word only works on the English Wikipedia, the simplest way of fixing the problem in the short-term is to replace all instances of {{SHORTDESC: (which invokes a magic word) with {{SHORTDESC| (which calls a template). This needs to be done in the local version of Template:Short_description and any other templates that invoke the magic word directly (and, of course, in any articles that invoke the magic word directly, but hopefully there are none of those).

Dcljr added a comment to T236861: Create Minangkabau Wiktionary.

@Harditaher: Whlie in the Incubator, pages were counted if they were in a particular category. Now, like most other Wikimedia wikis, main-namespace pages are counted only if they contain a [[wikilink]] to another page on the same wiki. Therefore, if you link key terms in your definitions, like the word "simalakamo" in the "malakamo" entry, then such pages will contribute to the content-page count of the wiki.

Continuing off-topic discussion: Note that you can also do [[m:wikt:shy:]] from any Wikimedia wiki (to go through the Meta-Wiki first), to deal with cases where [[wikt:shy:]] doesn't work (e.g., following a link to [[wikt:shy:]] from the newly-created Sakizaya Wikipedia, lands you on a page at the Incubator).
