Extra space

Do you know were the extra line break is coming from? Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 00:21, 11 March 2020 (UTC)

I think from {{Medical cases chart}}. I'll check it out. Alexiscoutinho (talk) 00:56, 11 March 2020 (UTC)

@Doc James: I think it's fixed now. Apparently only the bottom newline was problematic (thank goodness). Alexiscoutinho (talk) 01:18, 11 March 2020 (UTC)

Can you fix the one here 2020_coronavirus_outbreak_in_Canada Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 01:20, 11 March 2020 (UTC)

I'll try to convert all the charts, starting with the ones with more cases, when I have the opportunities. Different versions and divergences spread like Coronavirus... Alexiscoutinho (talk) 01:28, 11 March 2020 (UTC)

Welcome to WikiProject Medicine!

We at Wikiproject Medicine would like to thank you for your contribution now during the 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic. We are far from out of the woods with regard to the pandemic and understand that your focus may lie on coronavirus efforts.
We would still like to shine a light on our active medical community, which you are more than welcome to join. As a participant you can ask questions and get help about best practices on editing any health or medical article — on our talk-page. We are a (mostly) collegial bunch, and I do hope you feel welcome to participate. Currently there are two active communities:

• Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Medicine (talk — The general medical community)
• Misplaced Pages:WikiProject COVID-19 (talk — A temporary COVID-19 community)

Please join up!

About{{{togglesbar|}}} <!-- this feature is WIP -->-2020-03-26T13:27:00.000Z">

I tried to import templates into zh.wiki but cannot use this feature. do you know how to fix this? I am looking forward for your reply. angys (Talk Talk) 13:27, 26 March 2020 (UTC)"> ">

I think there is a problem for this feature, only works in en.wiki. All templates and modules has been update. angys (Talk Talk) 12:08, 27 March 2020 (UTC)"> ">

@*angys*: SOLVED. The problem arises because {{#time:M}} in the Chinese wiki returns a Chinese formatted month (1月, 3月...) while the togglesbar and manual id attribution used English format (jan, mar...). The problem could be solved by messing with {{#time:}} to return English months, but I think you will prefer to switch all (jan, mar...) to (1月, 3月...); check my sandbox. Also, don't forget to update the Row template which now uses {{#time:U}} instead of {{#time:z}} to deal with date differences in different years. Alexiscoutinho (talk) 14:18, 27 March 2020 (UTC)

So I had tested at mainland China but cannot appear for last 15 days. And then this means that we should change all these into Data to make this work? angys (Talk Talk) 16:15, 27 March 2020 (UTC)

I fixed the Row template, so it should work now. Alexiscoutinho (talk) 18:00, 27 March 2020 (UTC)

Yes thank you, but some of the bar will go down. eg for this angys (Talk Talk) 04:20, 28 March 2020 (UTC)

The factor (which should be called divisor) is too small. If you convert to the new data parameter you don't have to worry about it anymore. I converted a bunch of the larger charts to this new standard in the en wiki. Alexiscoutinho (talk) 12:42, 28 March 2020 (UTC)

So thats mean that all pandemic chart should use.data instead of Row chart right?That chart row I am copy from here angys (Talk Talk) 01:57, 29 March 2020 (UTC)

Yes. Eventually, the rows parameter will be deprecated. Alexiscoutinho (talk) 02:04, 29 March 2020 (UTC)

template doc solution

Hi Alexiscoutinho - you obviously found a solution for the /doc for the Medical cases chart, and it's presumably a more standard fix than my hack. :)

Which edit fixed the bug? I don't see anything obvious in these two edits that you did not long ago. Boud (talk) 15:06, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

OK, I saw your note. The specific edit doesn't matter. Boud (talk) 15:11, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

Month filter ambiguity

Hi Alexiscoutinho. First thanks for all your work in the medical cases chart. I'm writing regarding the year-ambiguity in the filter buttons. As you might already be aware, selecting the either Jan filter is being applied equally to both Jan 2020 and Jan 2021. See Template:COVID-19 pandemic data/United States medical cases chart. The apparent solution would be to change the mw-customcollapsible-MMM tag from being month-specific to month/year-specific. I dug around a bit and it appear that this has already been fixed on the Italian Misplaced Pages. They also changed the filter button layout to include the year.

Can that change be ported back here? At least the month-year tag logic? I'd take a stab at it myself, but an not familiar with the particular program language used. Thanks. -- Tom N talk/contrib 04:09, 15 January 2021 (UTC)

@Tcncv: I'm working on that right now in sandbox 1, where I also implemented year toggles. I would disapprove porting (although I could still check) their code here though as I think they should have discussed/contributed here in the first place. This is where the template originated and it should remain the centralized place for core development. The basic principle of this template is unity. Besides, I have recently improved a bit the internacionalization and compatibility with other wiki projects. Alexiscoutinho (talk) 04:40, 15 January 2021 (UTC)

November 2023

Hello and welcome to Misplaced Pages. Constructive contributions to Misplaced Pages are appreciated, but a recent edit of yours to the page Casualties of the 2023 Israel–Hamas war has an edit summary that appears to be inadequate, inaccurate, or inappropriate. The summaries are helpful to people browsing an article's history, so it is important that you use edit summaries that accurately tell other editors what you did. Feel free to use the sandbox to make test edits. Thank you. GordonGlottal (talk) 22:35, 13 November 2023 (UTC)

Replying in that talk page. Alexiscoutinho (talk) 23:50, 13 November 2023 (UTC)

Hello

Hey Alexiscoutinho! Based on your contributions, I can see you have an interest in the overall Russia/Ukraine war. Well, I am currently in the process of getting the battle of Kherson article up to the status of a good article. Would you mind taking a look at the article and seeing if anything should be fixed prior to the GA nomination? The Weather Event Writer (Talk Page) 21:38, 5 December 2023 (UTC)

Question on commons

I haven't had a notification of a question from you on commons, and don't see on on my talk page there. What are you referring to? (Hohum ) 10:47, 6 December 2023 (UTC)

@Hohum: Does ping not work there? Well the question is here. Alexis Coutinho (talk) 14:07, 6 December 2023 (UTC)

Russian victory

• - you edit war against consensus, or at least without getting consensus to make your desirable change. Please discuss on article talk page and follow WP:BRD. My very best wishes (talk) 17:45, 22 December 2023 (UTC)

Thank you! I think you are on the right track. However, I would rather stop commenting on the talk page per Misplaced Pages:Don't bludgeon the process. My very best wishes (talk) 03:13, 23 December 2023 (UTC)

I'm aware that I very likely won't be able to convince you. That final comment was pretty much a last attempt to counter you, thus the perceptible frustration. But what's strangest is the apparent lack of participation. I wonder if I should advertise the RfC in more places. Alexis Coutinho (talk) 03:30, 23 December 2023 (UTC)

Just wait a few days, please, and there will be reaction. - that one I can not edit due to my editing restrictions. My very best wishes (talk) 04:05, 23 December 2023 (UTC)

DS alert

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to the Balkans or Eastern Europe, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Misplaced Pages’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Misplaced Pages administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

• adhere to the purposes of Misplaced Pages;
• comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
• follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
• comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
• refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.
