| As this practice (and the actual manual of style guideline) are currently in dispute, you should probably back off of unlinking dates until the dispute is resolved. Prior ArbCom cases have looked unfavorably on editors who attempt to force through disputed changes on a massive scale as you (and other editors) are doing. Specifically, ], which I quote: | |||
| == Notice of move request == | |||
| {{"|Editors who are collectively or individually making large numbers of similar edits, and are apprised that those edits are controversial or disputed, are expected to attempt to resolve the dispute through discussion. It is inappropriate to use repetition or volume in order to present opponents with a fait accompli or to exhaust their ability to contest the change. This applies to many editors making a few edits each, as well as a few editors making many edits.|]}} | |||

| == User:Lightmouse/monobook.js/script.js == | |||
| Hey Lightmouse, just so you don't miss it, here's a question I asked of you at ]: "Is it possible for you to publish some statistics on how many pages your bot visited, how many delinks were made (per page avg. and total #), and how many complaints on how many pages you received? That would give us an idea of the degree of acceptance, or not, of your bot's actions."--] (]) 16:34, 17 November 2008 (UTC) | |||
| :I can't speak for Lightbot/Lightmouse, but in my own case, I've gone back and reviewed my changes. In the month of October I edited about 8000 articles, usually using either Lightmouse's script or my own very similar regexes. I would guess, conservatively, that about 70% of them involved some date delinking. (This is an entirely manual review of my editing history, so figures are approximate.) I received complaints from 5 editors on my talk page (plus Tennis Expert's objections and reverts). So that's 6 out of 5600, or just slightly more than one in a thousand. I think such a low level of objections indicates widespread acceptance of delinking. There ''is'' consensus, despite all the claims to the contrary from a small number of editors ] (]) 14:00, 21 November 2008 (UTC) | |||
| ::CC, thank you for the reply: very interesting data. It is even more lopsided than I would have guessed, and good news to proponents of auto date delinking. I would urge you to disseminate your figures as widely as possible on relevant Talk pages. Be prepared, however, for challenges from opponents. If there is a way for you to open up the data to general review, please consider doing so. Thanks again.--] (]) 22:40, 21 November 2008 (UTC) | |||
| :::Of course it will be challenged; by CC's own description (''"I would guess"'', ''"Figures are approximate"'', etc.), the results are far from precise. They don't even account for the reality that, for the most part, most editors who see the edit summary have no idea that the whole endeavour is contested and under review. Furthermore, many editors (and readers) do not understand - let alone dare to venture into - the murky world of Misplaced Pages's guidelines and policies. When faced with an official-sounding edit summary, they just assume it is what must be. We cannot presume that the only objections are from those who actually go so far as to respond on CC's talk page. --''']'''''<small><sup>]</sup><sub>]</sub></small>'' 23:05, 21 November 2008 (UTC) | |||
| ::::Anyone can review my edit history and my talk page, and someone could no doubt write a script to do a more thorough analysis. The number of articles I edited is easily verifiable, only my estimate of the proportion that involved delinking is approximate. But even if my estimates are quite a bit off, the overall conclusion remains the same - the proportion of objections is tiny. And as for the idea that we should somehow take acccount of 'silent objectors' - I'm speechless. You can prove anything you want by imputing motives to people who haven't said anything. I think it's reasonable to believe that if people don't object, that means they don't object. ] (]) 01:03, 22 November 2008 (UTC) | |||
| :::::Chris, I'm not questioning your intentions; only saying that this data you've provided cannot be taken as the "widespread acceptance" it is described to be. People may not object for any number of reasons; in this case, many of them probably don't even know they ''can'' object to it. I could go through every article you, Tony, and Lightmouse have delinked, ''relink'' the dates using the same edit summary you're using, and in all likelihood the same general population of IP readers and less-experienced editors who didn't object to your edits wouldn't complain about mine either. --''']'''''<small><sup>]</sup><sub>]</sub></small>'' 01:24, 22 November 2008 (UTC) | |||

This is partly what underlies the clear movement in WP towards more selective linking and, as at issue here, more ''explicit'' linking. Reconsideration, can you link me to a problem example where it's apparently clunky to make a year-in-X link explicit in the running prose? I'm interested in trying to determine the possibilities for doing this, and hard examples are the acid test. Please be aware that the "See also" option gained considerable support on this page when touted last month: rather than linking in the main text, there's the possibility of selecting the most important year-in-X links for the topic and listing them as you wish in the See also section at the bottom, as gateways into all articles in that class. Remember that there's a user-friendly nav box to sibling articles at the top of all year-in-X articles.

Feel like doing some units standardization work at Modiin Energy again? I updated the article today to add the findings of a seismic survey at a drilling license. There're also some figures that use superscripts that don't look right, but I'm not sure what the convention is.—Biosketch (talk) 10:11, 4 December 2011 (UTC)
(degrees) Celsius
I do not understand this Lightbot edit. As far as I know, unlike for "kelvin", "degree" is part of the unit name ("degree Celsius"). --Lambiam 11:14, 9 December 2011 (UTC)

Lightbot's user page says not to leave messages on his talkpage (but on yours instead) twice. It only needs to say it once. Pdiddyjr (talk) 19:32, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
Dispute resolution survey
 Dispute Resolution – Survey Invite Hello Lightmouse. I am currently conducting a study on the dispute resolution processes on the English Misplaced Pages, in the hope that the results will help improve these processes in the future. Whether you have used dispute resolution a little or a lot, now we need to know about your experience. The survey takes around five minutes, and the information you provide will not be shared with third parties other than to assist in analyzing the results of the survey. No personally identifiable information will be released. Please click HERE to participate. You are receiving this invitation because you have had some activity in dispute resolution over the past year. For more information, please see the associated research page.

User:Lightmouse/monobook.js/script.js
Hi. Arbitrators have been suggesting that people use this instead of Ohconfucius' script, but it looks from the path as if it only works on monobook. Any comment? --Mirokado (talk) 09:45, 22 July 2012 (UTC)

Request to take part in a survey
Hi there. I would very much appreciate it if you could spend ~2 minutes and take a short survey - a project trying to understand why the most active Misplaced Pages contributors (such as yourself) may reduce their activity, or retire. I sent you an email with details, if you did not get it please send me a wikiemail, so that I can send you an email with the survey questions. I would very much appreciate your cooperation, as you are among the most active Misplaced Pages editors who show a pattern of reduced activity, and thus your response would be extremely valuable. Thanks! --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 12:37, 22 July 2013 (UTC)
It may take a few minutes from the time the email is sent for it to show up in your inbox. You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{You've got mail}} or {{ygm}} template.

Template talk:Height
Given your previous involvement in the discussion at Template_talk:Height#Centimetres, I just thought I'd bring a closely related Request for Comment to your attention (as per Misplaced Pages:Canvassing).--Gibson Flying V (talk) 03:52, 23 January 2014 (UTC)
please, dont add convert template to the urls
About your AWB edit: Strategic Petroleum Reserve (United States) diff 392798962 15:09, 25 October 2010 "Mostly units using AWB (7290)". Text before edit:
Strategic Petroleum Reserve Plan Expansion To One Billion Barrels Submitted To Congress (Page 5), United States Department of Energy</ref>.
Text after edit with incorrect URL:
billion barrels (160×10^m).pdf Strategic Petroleum Reserve Plan Expansion To One Billion Barrels Submitted To Congress (Page 5), United States Department of Energy</ref>
I think we should not change units inside the URLs. Does current version of AWD convert it? Should we report bug to AWB developers? `a5b (talk) 08:16, 10 January 2015 (UTC)
ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Misplaced Pages arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Speedy deletion nomination of EROCKIT
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on EROCKIT, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Misplaced Pages:FAQ/Organizations for more information.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.
