Interwikies
A large number of users expressed their desire to have interwikies sorted in a site-specific order. Many users would also like to have a custom, user defined order, so that if you know Lithuanian and French, you can see links to them first. Developers need to be persuaded that this is a needed feature. Please see comments and vote for the bug 2867.

MultiPOI in wikipedia
[edit]Hi Yurik. Is it still time to say "Happy new year" ?. Well, just in case. Now, I'am using the dynamic maps in ca:template:Infotaula geografia política. It's in test and when I deploy it, will be in 100k articles. At the same time, I'd like to extend to the rest of infoboxes that are using "Graph:Street map with marks" which is less usefull. However, I need to represent more than one POI within the map. Something like this. I copied template:mapframe and template:marker to catalan wikipedia but the result don't show the points. Could it be because using this features in a wikipedia project ?. Why doesn't run ? could it be an installation matter ? I'am not a technical level, so I'll need your help. It's there any other way to represent a multipoint?. I take the wikivoyages tools, but I don't have so sofisticated requirement. In fact, I just need to provide a group of lat/lon/name/description to show. Thanks for your time. --Amadalvarez (talk) 18:47, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
- Amadalvarez, i'm sorry for not replying earlier - crazy week (dev summit, all staff, ...). Due to a request by the VE team, we cannot allow for the multiple <maplink> tags to all add data to the same map. In other words, one mapframe or maplink tag must contain all the data it wants to show. Wikivoyage is a special case, because they already had this functionality before map tags were introduced, and we had to match it as an exception. On the other hand, thanks to the new mw:Help:Map Data dataset functionality, you can reuse the same map data on multiple wikis (at the moment there is a bug with wikimarkup showing instead of the actual link, but we are working on it) --Yurik (talk) 18:19, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- P.S. Another option would be to generate maplink and mapframes on the fly from a mw:Help:Tabular Data dataset by a lua script. So the table would contain the list of the locations with their names, icon styles, etc, and a Lua script will go through the table and generate list items and mapframe tag. --Yurik (talk) 18:23, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- Don't worry. Everybody is in a hurry, but we are here to enjoy the project. Keep calm !. However, as you were in silence, I tried to use JSON code, but it doesn't allow to use parameters, which I need because I call maps from an infobox and get the values from Wikidata, Then, I encourage a good friend -more tech profile than me- and we (well...., he) build a new version of Map module to generate JSON code, directly from a list of parameters. The module is ca:module:Map and we invoke it via ca:template:Map draw. You can see some results in ca:Plantilla:Map_draw/ús/exemples- Now, it is deployed in 40.400 articles. What do you think ?.--Amadalvarez (talk) 19:17, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
Graph template categories
[edit]Hi. There are some categories added to several graph templates you created by noinclude in doc pages. We copy the doc pages every time to other wikis, and there are no categories with these names, and we can't create them because of their name in other language. Can I ask you please to replace these categories by other templates, for example "Template:PageViews/Categorization", with category names there? So in every wiki this templates will include the graph templates in local categories. It's like the regular MediaWiki messages tracking category names system. Thank you. IKhitron (talk) 16:42, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- IKhitron, thanks for the suggestion. There is another way to add multilingual categories. We could store category name in a dataset like this one, and the Module:TNT can extract it and produce the proper category link. The only problem with this approach is that all projects in the same language (e.g. wikipedia and wikivoyage and wikinews) would get the same link (which might be ok). English would also be a complex one because it would also affect Commons, MediaWiki, and other multilingual wikis. What do you think? --Yurik (talk) 18:33, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- Thank you. Actually, I don't know what to say, because I work in Wikipedias only and Meta Projects as WikiData or Commons, so I do not know about the rules in WikiText or WikiQuote. IKhitron (talk) 18:35, 17 January 2017 (UTC)

Automatic centering for Kartographer
[edit]Hi Yurik,
at testwiki I've done a Kartographer geojson test. The map is only centered around the map object when going to fullscreen. In preview it just shows a random location. How to fix this?--Recent contributor (talk) 12:46, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
- Recent contributor, please comment on phab:T149147 -- it will help WMF understand the importance of that ticket. --Yurik (talk) 18:04, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
- Done. When will <mapframe> be activated in production wikis?--Recent contributor (talk) 09:09, 26 January 2017 (UTC)
- Recent contributor, <mapframe> is already enabled in several large wikis (french, russian), and WMF needs to hear from the community what other wikis need it. Please comment on phab:T138057. --Yurik (talk) 18:58, 26 January 2017 (UTC)

listeria + tabular
[edit]Check out: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:TabulistBot If it looks ok, will submit for bot flag. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Smalyshev (WMF) (talk • contribs) 00:58, 11 February 2017 (UTC)
- @Smalyshev (WMF): I edited that page a bit, but looks very good. Btw, it seems your example does not match the sparql query, so not sure how you update it. Also, I think "?id" is better than "?item" for the mandatory field (if you really need it, which I'm not sure about). --Yurik (talk) 04:23, 11 February 2017 (UTC)
- I think Listeria uses "item" and I don't want to diverge too much from it for now. If it'll be a full fork, sure, but I want to leave an option for merging it back relatively easily for now. Not sure what you mean by example not matching query, can you point out the mismatch? --Smalyshev (WMF) (talk) 05:36, 11 February 2017 (UTC)
- @Smalyshev (WMF): commons:Data:Sandbox/Smalyshev/test.tab - the table has 5 columns, but the query only returns 3. Are you automatically append label & description? Re "item" - makes sense. Also, could you add the cat sparql query to your description page? I think it should be there if you already have the sample JSON there to be consistent. --Yurik (talk) 08:08, 11 February 2017 (UTC)
- Yes, label/description columns are generated by Listeria. --Smalyshev (WMF) (talk) 23:37, 11 February 2017 (UTC)

Candidacy
[edit]Yurik,
Can you post the URL to your platform discussions for the Wikimedia Foundation elections? I can't seem to find it... Actually, most of my conversations with you center around the fact that I can't find things!
Arthur.frick (talk) 03:57, 20 April 2017 (UTC)
- Arthur.frick, I posted my thoughts/statements here. Please let me know today if you have any change suggestions - I still have a few hours before the lock down. Plus I believe that candidates' platform should be a collaborative effort :) --Yurik (talk) 18:36, 20 April 2017 (UTC)
I looked at everything. I think that it looks GREAT, however, I have a few suggestions:
STATEMENT: YOU WROTE: Content and community made Wikipedia succeed, but neither should be taken for granted. A happy community needs better ways to interact, manage, and create. Good content must engage readers, be interactive and easy to understand. My technical & community work will aid board effectiveness/focus
I THINK: Content and community made Wikipedia succeed, but neither should be taken for granted. A happy and productive community needs better ways to interact, manage, and create. My technical & community work will aid board effectiveness/focus through empowering all users to not only engage with the content they are authoring, but to engage with each other, thus strengthening the fabric of the community.
MY THOUGHTS AS TO WHY: I think you bring a lot of tech experience as well as community experience. The vibe that I'm getting from you is that you are looking to increase the development of content and the continuity of community within the Wikipedia ecosystem through better technical implementation. These are just my thoughts, take what you like, or nothing if you wish. I just feel like you are selling yourself short in that, from my impression: that better technology will lead to better content and a stronger community (something that I totally agree with, btw).
ONLINE WIKI WORK: YOU WROTE: If technology plays an important part in Wikipedia, shouldn’t there be a technology person representing community on the board? I have been contributing to MediaWiki as a volunteer developer for many years, initially creating the MediaWiki API in 2006. Until recently, I also worked at WMF, leading Wikipedia Zero and Interactive engineering efforts. I am one of the top five MediaWiki code contributors. My projects include maps, interactive graphs/data visualizations, shared tabular data on Commons, and cross-wiki templates.
I feel the wikiverse has become complacent with our success, and needs to focus to continue improving. I believe Wikipedia will remain as the top source of information -- if it is fun to use. Just like hands-on museums, our content needs to be engaging, full of interactive multimedia, and focused on learning. My vision was presented in “I dream of content” paper, leading to many features done by the Interactive team.
Wikipedia is a single multilingual project, not hundreds of disjoined projects. Smaller communities should spend their limited resources creating content in their language, instead of wasting months copy/pasting common templates and code modules from other wikis.
Put editors’ needs first, concentrate on wishlists, don’t try to replace editors with algorithms.
I THINK: This is somewhat vague here. You have a wealth of technical knowledge as well as experience in Wikipedia. I'd recommend that you expound upon that, and focus less on opinion. You're advocating that your platform is that a tech person needs to be on the board, I want to know more about the tech that you've done and been a part of. Tell me more details about the data things that you've done, the mapping. The stuff that you talk about in our meetups.
OFFLINE WIKI WORK: I think looks great!
I've consumed wayyy too much coffee today. Sorry if this is a bit all over the place and turned in to a lengthy critique and treatise. I truly believe that you'd do a fantastic job in helping to drive technology in to a main priority and I think that's hugely important as WP moves forward especially concerning the multilingual and diversity initiatives. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.105.133.59 (talk) 20:59, 20 April 2017 (UTC)

TopoJSON map with <graph>
[edit]Hi Yurik,
I've imported a dataset of the US counties as TopoJSON. The source is this, but I processed it to fit in the 2M size limit.
At mw:User:Graphoid I'm just trying to stain a few counties, but the map stays blank. An administrator at MediaWiki wiki told me, that you would be right person to contact.
I would be very grateful if could tell me where my error is.
Regards, --Graphoid (talk) 21:58, 19 July 2017 (UTC)
- Graphoid, fixed. I recommend you use data namespace to store the counties (much less data will fit, so you will have to simplify it more, but the data will be auto-available to all wikis without copying. Also, use graph sandbox - makes spotting errors easier. Lastly, try to change it to use autosize=fit model (you will also need to put your mark inside a group mark to make clipping work - its a limitation of Vega2 with geopath marks - this way you will be able to set the size of the graph without worrying that it will auto-grow because of a legend or other visual artifacts. I am hoping to introduce Vega3 at some point - makes things much easier. Good luck! --Yurik (talk) 01:16, 20 July 2017 (UTC)
- P.S. Take a look at List_of_U.S._states_by_GDP. --Yurik (talk) 01:21, 20 July 2017 (UTC)
- The sandbox is really helpful. I've had stored the county data in the data namespace, but Mainframe98 deleted it as "out of scope".
- Thank you for fixing my map, but it still doesn't do it's basic task: Stain a few counties blue. In the moment it can only stain all counties with the same color.
- I think that onKey is the important line, but I don't grasp, what it does. When it's "ID" - all my counties have the default color, when it's anything else - all my counties are blue.--Graphoid (talk) 19:52, 20 July 2017 (UTC)

GraphMap
[edit]The GraphMap extension is a feature I regard rather interesting! (It should be, anyway, made more public, as it is still very little used, in contrast to the Graph extension). Why I write you, I have to questions regarding that project
- Is it possible that the maps displayed using that feature can be exported as an SVG or at least a high-resolution PNG? The extension might work very well for the WP itself, but the images can hardly be removed at the moment.
- Is it possible to use maps from commons:Category:SVG historic world maps (location map scheme) for GraphMap? Although this project has not gone that far up to know, it makes it possible to use draw accurate world maps for at least the last 25 years.
--Antemister (talk) 21:45, 29 October 2017 (UTC)
- Did you see that question?--Antemister (talk) 10:59, 21 November 2017 (UTC)
- @Antemister: sorry, missed it. I am not very familiar with the GraphMap ext - I'm really the wrong person to ask about it. Graph ext can handle images pretty well, but it cannot AFAIK modify them on the fly (e.g. you cannot take SVG and color it differently, but you can take a GeoJSON and do the same). --Yurik (talk) 21:46, 22 November 2017 (UTC)
- Ah, OK, who can I ask then, or, more particular, who is the developer of that extension? I just guessed that it is you, from an reply at the German WP.--Antemister (talk) 09:14, 24 November 2017 (UTC)
- @Antemister: I just did some searching, and it doesn't seem like this extension even exists! Are you sure that's the right name? I wrote the "graph" extension, not the GraphMap.
- So just in case you meant the Graph ext, answering your original questions: the graph ext can draw any images without modification (see doc but for version 2). Also, graph ext can support paths, which are usually generated from geojson/topojson data. So if you have a Data:*.map page on Commons, you can use it in the graph, coloring each region. See demos. --Yurik (talk) 23:45, 24 November 2017 (UTC)
- Sorry, I do not have any programming skills, so I do not know about the features of that extension, I just saw [2] that actually shows what I thought about. But it seems that there is at the moment only one map possible, and the images cannot be saved.--Antemister (talk) 11:57, 25 November 2017 (UTC)

![]() The Wikipedia Asian Month Edit-a-thon @ The Met will be the Metropolitan Museum of Art's second edit-a-thon, hosted on Sunday November 19, 2017 in the Bonnie Sacerdote Classroom, Ruth and Harold D. Uris Center for Education (81st Street entrance) at The Met Fifth Avenue in New York City. Following the first Met edit-a-thon in May 2017, the museum is excited to work with Wikipedia Asian Month for the potential to seed new articles about Asian artworks, artwork types, and art traditions, from any part of Asia. These can be illustrated with thousands of its recently-released images of public domain artworks available for Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons from the museum’s collection spanning 5,000 years of art. The event is an opportunity for Wikimedia communities to engage The Met's diverse Asian collections onsite and remotely.
Attendees should bring their own laptops and power cords. Light snacks, drinks and cake will be provided. We also welcome remote participation for the global online Wikipedia Asian Art Month, running November 1-30. Thanks, and hope to see you at the museum, and/or as part of the online Wikipedia Asian Month contest!--Pharos (talk) 16:36, 1 November 2017 (UTC) |

Weather data
[edit]Hi Yurik,
I work at Environment Canada and we are studying how we can import all the weather observations contained in the Canadian climate archive into Wikidata and/or Commons. We are speaking of more than 8000 stations, with observations for monthly, daily and hourly values, some of them starting in 1840. We are talking of a lot of data.
Many questions are still unanswered at that point, and since we've seen that you have created a format and imported weather data for New York city, we though that we could benefit from your opinion.
1- We are not sure what you mean with this comment on the New York data discussion page: « Of course this is only possible if foundation continues to support this effort. » Is it possible to use categories for these pages?
2- For the New York observations, you've used the nomenclature SOURCE/weather/LOCATION.tab
, which in this specific case gives Ncei.noaa.gov/weather/New York City.tab
. However, these observations are monthly observations, ie. one entry per month. There are other observations, namely daily (one entry per day) and hourly (one entry per hour). To take this into account, I propose to use this nomenclature SOURCE/weather/STATION/PERIOD/STATION PERIOD DATE.tab
. In this case, that would give Ncei.noaa.gov/weather/monthly/New York City Montly.tab
. That way, you could add another set of data for daily observations, probably one file per year. This could give for daily observation of year 1910: Ncei.noaa.gov/weather/daily/New York City Daily 1910.tab
. Do you have an opinion on this?
Would you have any other ideas or suggestions about how we should proceed to add all this data?
Thanks, Dirac (talk) 01:03, 4 November 2017 (UTC)
- Dirac, hi, it sounds like an awesome project! For the #1 - the categories at this point can only be added to the talk pages, not to the content pages. There is a phab:T155290 ticket to make it supportable on the data page itself. Technically it is not too difficult to do, it just needs a volunteer or a staff person to spend a bit of time to create it. I may try to hack on it at some point if noone else takes it.
- The #2 - sure! In reality, I have no idea what would be the best way to name those datasets, I thought "origin/group/subgroup/name.tab" is a good organizational structure, but others have said that in some cases origin is not a well defined concept, especially for the user-generated sets. Eventually I think the "structured data" project will bring some order into this, but for now, any name you like should work. --Yurik (talk) 18:31, 4 November 2017 (UTC)
- Hi @Yurik:. I need to present a showcase presenting what can be done with the Weather data on Commons (and/or Wikidata). Here's what I would like to do. We could use the montly observations data for Bagotville. For the min/max temperature, precipitation and snow, we would like to have:
- Monthly average (average of every month for January, February, ... to end up with only 12 averaged values for each weather element)
- Variance
- Standard deviation
- Extremes (record)
- Hi @Yurik:. I need to present a showcase presenting what can be done with the Weather data on Commons (and/or Wikidata). Here's what I would like to do. We could use the montly observations data for Bagotville. For the min/max temperature, precipitation and snow, we would like to have:
- We also need to see how we can mingled different data sets. A trivial example could be to add the max temperature values of New York and Bagotville for every month.
- However, we don't have the Lua expertise to achieve this. Is it something you can help us with?
- Dirac (talk) 18:08, 7 November 2017 (UTC)
- @Dirac:, I did this example for weather a while ago. There is also User:Yurik/Weather_heatmap and User:Yurik/WeatherDemo. The last one is a standard table as used by many pages, but it pulls data from the data page. Would that work for you? --Yurik (talk) 12:40, 13 November 2017 (UTC)
- Hi @Yurik:. I am very much interested by User:Yurik/WeatherDemo. I tried to mimic your page and edit the template (removing °F for example). However, my User:Dirac/Weather box page gives me the error
Script error: No such module "Sandbox/Dirac".
while yours isLua error in Module:Sandbox/Yurik at line 9: Missing "data" parameter.
. Even if the error indicates that my page doesn't exists, it does (I've copied yours). By looking at the difference between your sandbox page and mine, it seems that your Sandbox is able to invoke Module:Arguments while mine isn't. I've looked into this module documentation to see if I should activate it in my profile in a way or another, but did not find anything. Do you know how I can fix this? Dirac (talk) 16:34, 14 November 2017 (UTC)
- Hi @Yurik:. I am very much interested by User:Yurik/WeatherDemo. I tried to mimic your page and edit the template (removing °F for example). However, my User:Dirac/Weather box page gives me the error
- @Dirac:, I think you didn't try to do a "null edit" after adding Module:Sandbox/Dirac. (open page and save it without changing). Both my and your pages show the same error. --Yurik (talk) 21:54, 14 November 2017 (UTC)
- @Yurik:, you're right, now it worked! Thanks Dirac (talk) 21:06, 15 November 2017 (UTC)

Question about the "graph" extension
[edit]Hi Yurik, it seems that you are interested by the Graph extension. Since I try to create a graph using this extension, I got a question. Up to now, I did this graph. I wanted to add the possibility to display the y value when we hover a given point of the graph. It works rather well when I am in preview but it does not work when I save the page. Do you have any explanation? Pamputt (talk) 16:05, 19 November 2017 (UTC)
- Pamputt you need to make the graph interactive by setting mode=interactive. Graphs are always created as images for performance reasons, but allow interactivity if clicked. --Yurik (talk) 20:11, 20 November 2017 (UTC)
- Ah, that's it. Thank you very much. I was looking for that since few days ... Pamputt (talk) 20:32, 20 November 2017 (UTC)

Graph:Map and topojson
[edit]Hi,
Any ideas how to get local topoJson map working with Graph module?
- I'm using this topojson for Latvia https://et.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moodul:Graph/test.json
But so far I'm only getting tiny map, in top-right corner of generated image, thats visible only at large scale: https://et.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Kasutaja:WikedKentaur/test&oldid=4951401
--WikedKentaur (talk) 07:10, 25 March 2018 (UTC)
- WikedKentaur, I would recommend using a different approach, similar to how Template:OSM_Location_map is doing it. Internally it uses Template:Graph:Street_map_with_marks. If your data is bigger than that, store it in mw:Help:Map_Data on Commons (wrapped geojson), that you can use directly from the graph. --Yurik (talk) 04:31, 26 March 2018 (UTC)

Pageviews
[edit]Hi Yurik, thanks for your work on the PageViews graph, which continues to be very useful.
I have been playing with the code's data pull from the PageView API to try to create a simple template which pulls just one number in plain text form (for example, the 30 day total views for a page, or even just the prior day's single viewcount).
I am not a programmer though; all my attempts on my sandbox have not been able to make this simple template work. What I am trying to achieve is a template like:
- {{Pageviews datapoint|PAGENAME|1}}
- gives:
- 49
- [being the number of pageviews in the previous 1 day.]
Would you be able to guide me on this?

Help me/us!!!!
[edit]Hello!
First of all, thank you very much for having developed Module:TNT. It is a good initiative, which Catalan wikipedians (who are interested and working in the internationalization of modules and templates) have made known me. I am Catalan and my level of English is intermediate, excuse me ...
I am finalizing (improving) a column diagram, which uses TNT; Program with about 2500 lines of code. Also to get some more functionality and at the instance of these wikipedians cited, I created Module:TNTTools, and other derived modules. Also I created some (minor) modules and templates (i.e. Module: BrewerColors used in Cynthia Brewer).
But after by copying these to the English Wikipedia: User:Pppery is requesting to delete my modules and that he despises them included your TNT. You can follow the thread of the TNTTools conversation on Wikipedia:Templates_for_discussion/Log/2019_October_25#Module:SimpleArgs. Perhaps you would like to add yourself to the discussion and explain the reasons for the suitability of TNT.
Thank you so much!.
Jmarchn (talk) 06:52, 29 October 2019 (UTC)
- Hi Jmarchn, thanks for using TNT! I will look at the discussion in depth in the morning, but a quick suggestion -- large wikis are very hard to change (simply by their nature), and many people (I have seen Pppery especially active at that) tend to push back on some of those changes. This is neither good or bad per say, but we should always keep in mind what we want to achieve. Should we force every wiki to use the same template/module right away? I think we should not. Instead, I think our goal should be to work with the smaller wikis, and build up a library of good quality modules/templates that are translatable and well tested (including many unit tests). The more languages use a module, the more likely large wikis will also adapt it. In short - you always want to pick your fights - some are worth it, some could wait a bit longer :) --Yurik (talk) 07:07, 29 October 2019 (UTC)

Uris Center for Education (81st Street entrance) at The Met Fifth Avenue in New York City. The museum is excited to work with Wikipedia Asian Month for the potential to seed new articles about Asian artworks, artwork types, and art traditions, from any part of Asia. These can be illustrated with thousands of its recently-released images of public domain artworks available for Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons from the museum’s collection spanning 5,000 years of art. The event is an opportunity for Wikimedia communities to engage The Met's diverse Asian collections onsite and remotely. Asia Art Archive will host a sister event in Hong Kong next week.

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 [email protected], 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 [email protected].
Thank you!

Would You be kindly abele to review recent changes in mw:Template:Graph:Lines an mw:Template:Graph:Stacked templates
[edit]Hi Yuri. As author of mw:Template:Graph:Lines, mw:Template:Graph:Stacked (and mw:Template:Graph:Population_history) would You be kindly abele to review my recent changes in that templates, - e.g. mw:Special:Diff/4222703/4472303, mw:Special:Diff/4466895/4471805.
Specifically I've added "init":"..."
workaround in "rightwidth"
signal definition, since I found out that this signal in combination with chart title causes extra blank space at the left side of some charts (with long enough title, and short enough y axis labels).
I saw that You'd added this signal in mw:Special:Diff/2340643, by suggestion of arvind given in this Vega issue #691 / 270860874 comment. So I assumed that You may have more information on this topic, and/or maybe could invent more elegant solution😊. U.84-47-17-91 (talk) 18:10, 20 March 2021 (UTC)
To describe briefly what I found out on this issue with mw:Template:Graph:Lines, here provided series of graphs based on JSON models obtained with debug=1
parameters, and then slightly modified in few places.
In case of "padding": "strict"
"signals": [{"name": "rightwidth", "expr": "0"}]
- using simply 0 in place of expression explains root-cause of issue (it seems that at early stage signal obains 0 value which courses plotting area paddings expansion)
![]() | Graphs are unavailable due to technical issues. There is more info on Phabricator and on MediaWiki.org. |
"signals": [{"name": "rightwidth", "expr": "width + padding.right"}]
- causes the same blank space at the left, while title repositioned +/- properly.
![]() | Graphs are unavailable due to technical issues. There is more info on Phabricator and on MediaWiki.org. |
In case of "padding": "auto"
(or when simply omitting this parameter), it seems that signal not calculated (recalculated) at all, and always equals 0, except case when initialized explicitly
"padding": "auto"
, "signals": [{"name": "rightwidth", "expr": "width + padding.right"}]
![]() | Graphs are unavailable due to technical issues. There is more info on Phabricator and on MediaWiki.org. |
Other interesting observation that one could expect that signal defined as "signals": [{"name": "width_alias", "expr": "width"}]
should behave as simple alias to width
signal, and should behave quite the same in any situation. But in fact replacing "width" with "width_alias" cause above issue to reproduce (e.g. "x": {"signal": "width_alias", "mult": 0.5}
and "x": {"signal": "width", "mult": 0.5}
produces different outcome)

Data namespace
[edit]Dear Yuri! How can we better connect c:Data: tabular files (a beautiful but underused idea), WD properties whose values are a table (ditto), and existing medium-sized datasets that people want to archive + reference on Commons?
- clearer workflow for UploadWizard supporting people trying to upload data
- more visible Data: namespace, some way to transclude tables cross-project
- ...
- profit!

BRFA activity by month Welcome to the ninth issue of the English Wikipedia's Bots Newsletter, your source for all things bot. Vicious bot-on-bot edit warring... superseded tasks... policy proposals... these stories, and more, are brought to you by Wikipedia's most distinguished newsletter about bots. After a long hiatus between August 2019 and December 2021, there's quite a bit of ground to cover. Due to the vastness, I decided in December to split the coverage up into a few installments that covered six months each. Some people thought this was a good idea, since covering an entire year in a single issue would make it unmanageably large. Others thought this was stupid, since they were getting talk page messages about crap from almost three years ago. Ultimately, the question of whether each issue covers six months or a year is only relevant for a couple more of them, and then the problem will be behind us forever. Of course, you can also look on the bright side – we are making progress, and this issue will only be about crap from almost two years ago. Today we will pick up where we left off in December, and go through the first half of 2020. Overall January 2020 Yeah, you're not gonna be able to get away with this anymore.
