User talk:Clump

Hi! I see that you have deleted my sandbox. Is it passible to get a copy of what i wrote or to restore the revision for a short time? I'm planning on using some of it on OAuth/For Developers.

Sure; I've restored temporarily. (But what does spotify have to do with it?)

Thanks, I wrote something similar for Spotify.

I'm really tempted to nuke the contribs of and block Special:Contributions/BetterMediaFactor without talk page access for using MediaWiki.org as their own personal microblogging service (edit: especially after Topic:Vrgakmntyxqeihac), but I'd like a second opinion first since it's not obvious vandalism or spamming. Can you take a look and see if you'd agree with those actions?

I agree very much.

User created a new user page anyway.

My user page was summarily deleted. It simply stated the truth: "I manage an installation of Mediawiki at <redacted>." I did not link to my website. The statement tells who I am and why I am interested in improving the software. Thanks

This seems borderline to me. I wouldn't have deleted it myself, but it's not clear-cut enough for me to unilaterally undelete it given that Clump deleted it. Your user page wasn't completely unreasonable/spammy, but at the same time, you haven't really done anything else significant here, and user pages are meant to be for contributors here to share with each other, not just a generic Facebook-like thing for anyone.

Hello. Could you delete this message? Thanks.

It is used by other template.

It is OK to add blank spaces in templates messages.

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Spaces

Clearly, cannot be used if it is deleted when just created and used in one template.

{{Screencast requested}} is needed when a newbie cannot understand long and long lines of text.

Take into account than some pages are also for Wikipedia and other sister projects and its newbies.

I need a screencast sometime to understand how to use some features of MediaWiki, employed also in Wikipedia and other projects.

If it's actually somehow likely someone might actually create a screencast for a specific page it may make sense, but otherwise, which I suspect is most cases, peppering pages with that will just be annoying. Please avoid creating 1-item categories.

The category, as in Wikipedia, is for the page where people asked for screenshots, screencast and similar . How can I ask for a screencast in the help:notifications or similar name page?. BoldLuis (talk) 22:08, 16 May 2020 (UTC)

On wikipedia that project seems to have never really gone anywhere, with little activity since 2010. You seem to have figured out a way to ask here.

Do not worry. A Mediawiki:Helper that said to me that is going to do his best to create a screencast video about the topic for newbies. BoldLuis (talk) 22:08, 19 May 2020 (UTC)

I tried to help again newbies directing them to the definition / use / explication of a mistery word (really, not magic, when you see it the first time):

I hope Mediawikie has no newbie-phobia and fear to change to improve, it would not be good. lol. BoldLuis (talk) 22:27, 16 May 2020 (UTC)

I fail to see how a broken edit to an (effectively) undocumented template on another wiki was an improvement.

Documentation can be done using {{Wikipedia doc}} (soon global template documentation is going to be more usual). It links to a page where you can find the word and understand how it is used. It could be improved. But before any effort. Are you ready for change to improve Mediawiki?. I could do my best (and you also). BoldLuis (talk) 22:13, 19 May 2020 (UTC)

Just copy the documentation from Wikipedia (and, from my experience, remove paragraphs of Wikipedia-specific information) instead of directing users to another wiki.

I would prefer to use a global template. Easier, more useful and quicklier. If the user accounts are global, user templates woud be global, also.

Стоит Ваша защита на странице. Хотел перевести на русский, сейчас русская версия страницы соскальзывает снова на англоязычную. Как лучше сделать?
