Pageswap rights check bug

[edit]

Hey Ahecht. In your pageswap script, the code checking for suppressredirect and move-subpages permission seems not to be working. See this move. I've also verified it by trying it on my non-pagemover alt: step 1 went through and step 2 (of course) failed. Nor did the "Validate page swap" button warn that I didn't have those rights.

@SilverLocust  Fixed. Thanks for the heads up. Looks like I broke that code when I split the script into pageswap.js and pageswap-core.js, so the script was popping up a red notification that there were insufficient rights but didn't actually stop the script from loading. The new version won't load if rights are insufficient. --Ahecht (TALK

Interface-protected edit request on 14 December 2024

[edit]

On line 38, change 

(currNs != -1 || mw.config.get("wgCanonicalSpecialPageName") == "Movepage")

to 

((currNs != -1 && mw.config.get("wgArticleId") != 0) || mw.config.get("wgCanonicalSpecialPageName") == "Movepage")

This checks to make sure that the page exists before adding the portlet link. JJPMaster (she/they) 19:00, 14 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@JJPMaster  Done. Thanks for catching that! --Ahecht (TALK

MassMove script feature request

[edit]

I believe you should add the ability to replace a regular expression in the source titles with something else. That would make it easier to use this script to handle RMs like this. P.S. You might want to change "Prefix to add to the new name (e.g., User:Plastikspork/):" to "Prefix to add to the new name (e.g., User:Ahecht/):"P.P.S. This is unrelated to this AN thread—I had drafted this message before the incident, although it certainly made me want this change more. JJPMaster (she/they) 05:15, 15 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@JJPMaster I'll look into the regex feature, but for something like moving a Wikiproject, the Massmove script works just fine (just set the old Wikiproject name as the old prefix and the new one as the new prefix). I used it recently to move the 177 or so subpages of WP:WikiProject Open proxies. It's admittedly easier to use for that if you're an admin since page movers are limited to 16 moves per minute, but even a very large WikiProject shouldn't take more than an hour. As for the example, I intentionally kept that as a nod to Plastikspork, who wrote the vast majority of the code -- I just added suffixes and the live preview --Ahecht (TALK

To be clear, the goal was explicitly not to move the WikiProject, hence the AN thread. The regex feature would have allowed me to replace "tornado outbreak" with just "outbreak" in all of the titles. The script I used instead moved the WikiProject by mistake. JJPMaster (she/they) 20:47, 15 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@JJPMaster: In that case, you'd set the old prefix to "List of tornadoes in the tornado" and the new one to "List of tornadoes in the". --Ahecht (TALK

Oh, I didn’t realize that that would have worked. Thank you! JJPMaster (she/they) 20:53, 15 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@JJPMaster You managed to nerd-snipe me on the find and replace thing, so I've modified the sandbox version to have a find and replace feature with a regex option. --Ahecht (TALK

It works. Thank you! JJPMaster (she/they) 02:40, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Editing War

[edit]

Hi.

I've repeatedly tried discussing with @EEFamilyTree about this and my 'talk' is deleted/archived without a response. They are continuously ignoring the set presentation of the duration of characters, is actively vandalising articles (Johnny Carter and Ruby Allen) alongside newer ones like Teddy Mitchell.

You've reverted mine even though mine is the consistent, correct visual style. GuyFromEE (talk) 17:19, 26 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@GuyFromEE I don't think I've reverted you, but the places to take your content dispute after talk page discussion have failed are listed at WP:DRR. By continuing to revert each other, both you and EEFamilyTree are at risk of being blocked. --Ahecht (TALK
PAGE) 00:04, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
And to clarify, I don't see posts from you to places like Wikipedia:Third opinion#Active disagreements, Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard/request, or Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring. You made a post to Wikipedia talk:WikiProject EastEnders#Presentation of Character duration. but too little time has passed for people to respond. --Ahecht (TALK
PAGE) 00:15, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Even though I'm the one in the right?
I've tried the content dispute and they simply refuse to have a conversation about it or listen. This is getting ridiculous on all accounts. I simply want the presentation of duration to be consistent. GuyFromEE (talk) 00:01, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@GuyFromEE This is a style dispute, the edits are not obvious vandalism, so none of the exceptions to WP:3RRNO apply. You've been given three resources for resolving this dispute and haven't attempted any of them (instead going to WP:RFPP, WP:SPI, and WP:AARV for some reason), and even if you have some reason for not wanting to go to any of them you could open a Request for Comment on the WikiProject page rather than a casual discussion (although you'd need to write a more neutral statement about the issue). I'll be posting a formal final warning on your and EEfamilytrees talk pages, and any further edit warring will result in a block. --Ahecht (TALK

You’re bias.
extremely bias. GuyFromEE (talk) 11:48, 1 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@GuyFromEE I've warned both of you, there's no bias here. --Ahecht (TALK

Disruptive IPs

[edit]

Hi, after you blocked this IP, another IP (different provider, maybe the same person or a meat) is doing it again [1] [2]. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 14:26, 28 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Fylindfotberserk Thanks. Blocked that IP for block evasion and semi-protected the page for 3 months. --Ahecht (TALK

Paul Pelosi

[edit]

I made a more concise edit to Paul Pelosi's page, including reliable sources from the Washington Post and Roll Call. 138.88.222.231 (talk) 18:41, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked from that page for Edit warring. When your changes are reverted, you should discuss them with the other editor on their talk page or the article's talk page before re-implementing them. See WP:AVOIDEDITWAR. --Ahecht (TALK

The above IP has added the contested content to Piatti Ristorante and Auberge du Soleil. – Muboshgu (talk) 19:18, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Muboshgu Thanks for the heads up. Since it hasn't become edit warring on those pages yet I'm hesitant to take any action myself, but if you want to extend or modify the block feel free. --Ahecht (TALK
PAGE) 19:22, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I might, but I'd rather not as somewhat WP:INVOLVED. I'll let you know if it becomes edit warring. – Muboshgu (talk) 19:24, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Block evasion

[edit]

Special:Contributions/2001:8F8:1F2B:9006:550D:F0CC:D284:16E6 is evading their block and creating disruption by altering the party affiliations of members in the List of members of the 16th National Assembly of Pakistan to reflect their own preference, which does not align with the official National Assembly source. This action also violates WP:BLPVIO. The range was blocked most recently by you. Sheriff | ☎ 911 | 20:03, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@SheriffIsInTown Thanks, I've extended the pblock to that page. --Ahecht (TALK
