Fixed a typo in Unknown-params-warning

[edit]

Hope you don't mind. Alexanderino (talk) 19:19, 6 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

@Alexanderino: thanks for letting me know AND for fixing it! That is embarrassing... Appreciate it! Zackmann (Talk to me/What I been doing) 02:23, 7 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
There's nothing to be embarrassed about, Zackmann08. We all make mistakes :-) Alexanderino (talk) 05:28, 7 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
Yea but this one is particularly ironic... Zackmann (Talk to me/What I been doing) 19:54, 7 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

Can you help?

[edit]

My userboxes have started to get wild, can you restructure it to have 3 boxes to a row? In solidarity Dafootballguy Want to talk? 20:00, 12 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

(talk page stalker)  Done. – Jonesey95 (talk) 01:35, 13 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
Sorry Dafootballguy. Been offline all day. Jonesey95 got you all squared away though. Don't hesitate to reach out if you need more help. Zackmann (Talk to me/What I been doing) 02:52, 13 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
@Zackmann08 no problem. I have writen a script but am having a few issues. 1) The reports won't sign 2) the formatting is off for reports to UAA and the like. (It adds a new section under the user's name). In solidarity Dafootballguy Want to talk? 03:39, 13 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

Hi again!

I know we were just interacting, but I kind of wanted to ask for additional help and possibly and explanation for how to handle it in the future. I just published another translation (Zachem?), and for some reason the links are showing invalid character positions. I tried looking up how to handle them, but neither the ContentTranslation tool nor the Citationbot, for example, work. Can you help if possible? Please let me know.

Thanks again for all of your help :) Losipov (talk) 16:38, 15 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

Oh and one more thing: thank you a ton for the talk page archive option! I've been meaning to add it given my talk page was getting extremely long, so I'm super grateful and appreciative of you for doing that :) Losipov (talk) 16:39, 15 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
Happy to help with the archiving! As for the citation issues, this is a weird one... If you go to this unicode converter tool and copy and paste into the top box one of the titles that you used on that page (example: «2M» — Россия Top 25 >> 24-2010, you will see in the HTML/XML section that it contains a hidden unicode space of  . So you just need to remove those by typing in a regular space. It will look like this in the diff. Zackmann (Talk to me/What I been doing) 16:55, 15 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

2026 Virginia State University shooting

[edit]

Hi Zackmann08. I just declined the CSD you requested for 2026 Virginia State University shooting. It isn't eligible for A1 because there's enough context to know what the article is about (a shooting that occurred at a certain place at a certain time). WP:A1 also says Do not tag under this criterion in the first few minutes after a new article is created, and you tagged it only a minute after creation. It isn't eligible for A7 because that only applies to articles about a real person, individual animal, commercial or non-commercial organization, web content, or organized event, and a shooting isn't any of those. If you want to PROD it, take it to AFD, or draftify it (after some time has passed), go ahead, but it isn't eligible for speedy deletion. Chess enjoyer (talk) 18:43, 15 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
