Nomination for deletion of Template:2024 Women's Premier League Points table

Proposed deletion of 2023 Big Matches

The article 2023 Big Matches has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Matches fail WP:GNG and we are not an indiscriminate collection of Sri Lankan school matches, with this page violating WP:NOTSTATS.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

This bot DID NOT nominate any of your contributions for deletion; please refer to the history of each individual page for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 10:01, 5 March 2024 (UTC)

Concern regarding Draft:Notable Moments at the MTV Video Music Awards

Hello, Vestrian24Bio. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Notable Moments at the MTV Video Music Awards, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 15:08, 19 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi, I can see that you have conveniently deleted select content from the page Chennai Super Kings in the name of "clean-up" without any due reason. Please provide appropriate and suitable comments when you do the same.

Also, as per MOS:IMGSIZE, it is not a good practice to specify a fixed width of an image in pixels unless with reason. Rather you can use upright with a scaling factor if a enlargement is required.

Thanks! Magentic Manifestations (talk) 03:18, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

It was removed at Royal Challengers Bangalore. 𝓥𝓮𝓼𝓽𝓻𝓲𝓪𝓷24𝓑𝓲𝓸 (ᴛᴀʟᴋ) 03:26, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

And then restored, sorry. 𝓥𝓮𝓼𝓽𝓻𝓲𝓪𝓷24𝓑𝓲𝓸 (ᴛᴀʟᴋ) 03:46, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

It was removed by a disruptive user despite earlier reverts by other editors as well. I am trying to take the article Chennai Super Kings to GA. The format is inline with similar club related featured articles from sports category (you can refer to the same!). It would help if you do not make contradicting edits which would mean further re-work during GA review process. Thanks for your understanding. Magentic Manifestations (talk) 05:00, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

Okay, I am sorry for the troubles caused by me. 𝓥𝓮𝓼𝓽𝓻𝓲𝓪𝓷24𝓑𝓲𝓸 (ᴛᴀʟᴋ) 05:13, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

Just as an FYI, I moved the 3 categories that were in here to Category:Women's Premier League (cricket) teams, which has existed since 2023-02-17 and follows the naming scheme of the primary article at Women's Premier League (cricket). Hey man im josh (talk) 12:27, 9 May 2024 (UTC)

Custom signature

Hi Vestrian24Bio. Would you please consider using regular text in your signature instead of the mathematical symbols? It makes it more difficult to copy your username and it's bad for accessibility. You can get a similar effect using fonts like Vestrian24Bio. Actually, using unusual fonts is bad for accessibility in general, but it would still be an improvement. Regards. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 08:56, 9 May 2024 (UTC)

How about this one: Vestrian24Bio (U, T, A, C, S) 11:37, 9 May 2024 (UTC)

Adjusted font size now. Vestrian24Bio (U, T, A, C, S) 11:43, 9 May 2024 (UTC)

That's definitely better, thanks. Five subsequent links is a bit out of control, but it's in the eyesore category rather than usability. You only really need a talk page link. Regards. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 19:17, 9 May 2024 (UTC)

Tech News: 2024-20

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Recent changes

• On Wikisource there is a special page listing pages of works without corresponding scan images. Now you can use the new magic word __EXPECTWITHOUTSCANS__ to exclude certain pages (list of editions or translations of works) from that list. [1]
• If you use the user-preference "Show preview without reloading the page", then the template-page feature "Preview page with this template (what's this?)" will now also work without reloading the page. [2]
• Kartographer maps can now specify an alternative text via the alt= attribute. This is identical in usage to the alt= attribute in the image and gallery syntax. An exception for this feature is wikis like Wikivoyage where the miniature maps are interactive. [3]
• The old Guided Tour for the "New Filters for Edit Review" feature has been removed. It was created in 2017 to show people with older accounts how the interface had changed, and has now been seen by most of the intended people. [4]

Changes later this week

• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 14 May. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 15 May. It will be on all wikis from 16 May (calendar). [5][6]
• The Special:Search results page will now use CSS flex attributes, for better accessibility, instead of a table. If you have a gadget or script that adjusts search results, you should update your script to the new HTML structure. [7]

Future changes

• In the Vector 2022 skin, main pages will be displayed at full width (like special pages). The goal is to keep the number of characters per line large enough. This is related to the coming changes to typography in Vector 2022. Learn more. [8]
• Two columns of the pagelinks database table (pl_namespace and pl_title) are being dropped soon. Users must use two columns of the new linktarget table instead (lt_namespace and lt_title). In your existing SQL queries:
  1. Replace JOIN pagelinks with JOIN linktarget and pl_ with lt_ in the ON statement
  2. Below that add JOIN pagelinks ON lt_id = pl_target_id
  • See phab:T222224 for technical reasoning. [9][10]

Tech News: 2024-21

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Recent changes

• The Nuke feature, which enables administrators to mass delete pages, will now correctly delete pages which were moved to another title. [11]
• New changes have been made to the UploadWizard in Wikimedia Commons: the overall layout has been improved, by following new styling and spacing for the form and its fields; the headers and helper text for each of the fields was changed; the Caption field is now a required field, and there is an option for users to copy their caption into the media description. [12][13]

Changes later this week

• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 21 May. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 22 May. It will be on all wikis from 23 May (calendar). [14][15]
• The HTML used to render all headings is being changed to improve accessibility. It will change on 22 May in some skins (Timeless, Modern, CologneBlue, Nostalgia, and Monobook). Please test gadgets on your wiki on these skins and report any related problems so that they can be resolved before this change is made in all other skins. The developers are also considering the introduction of a Gadget API for adding buttons to section titles if that would be helpful to tool creators, and would appreciate any input you have on that.

If you see medicine-related GAs that may no longer meet the GA criteria, feel free to nominate them for attention/reassessment (please, not too many at once, lest we get overwhelmed). I'll incorporate them into the listings above.
• Maintenance category of the month: Articles with topics of unclear notability (I've listed just the 36 that start with "A"; there are 398 total).

Recent changes

• Several bugs related to the latest updates to the UploadWizard on Wikimedia Commons have been fixed. For more information, see T365107 and T365119.
• In March 2024 a new addPortlet API was added to allow gadgets to create new portlets (menus) in the skin. In certain skins this can be used to create dropdowns. Gadget developers are invited to try it and give feedback.
• Some CSS in the Minerva skin has been removed to enable easier community configuration. Interface editors should check the rendering on mobile devices for aspects related to the classes: .collapsible, .multicol, .reflist, .coordinates, .topicon. Further details are available on replacement CSS if it is needed.

Changes later this week

• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 28 May. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 29 May. It will be on all wikis from 30 May (calendar). [16][17]
• When you visit a wiki where you don't yet have a local account, local rules such as edit filters can sometimes prevent your account from being created. Starting this week, MediaWiki takes your global rights into account when evaluating whether you can override such local rules. [18]

Template:2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup Group A

We should to restore the earlier format atleast until the end of the tournament, what was the reason for removal of runs scored, overs bowled and such attributes from the template? Cric editor (talk) 04:24, 3 June 2024 (UTC)

In the earlier format. the NRR is calculated each time when loading the page, which takes up memory to execute; specially for pages like 2024 T20WC which has 6 points tables. But, we could keep the earlier format until the end of the Group stage. Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 04:35, 3 June 2024 (UTC)

Yes I guess we can settle with that till group stage, like it's done for all other tournaments. Cric editor (talk) 04:37, 3 June 2024 (UTC)

Also in the 2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup qualification, There are 5 "Final standings (Sub-regional qualifier)" and 5 "Final standings (Regional final)"; It's better to avoid similar headings in a same page as it would result in the anchors being misdirected. Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 04:39, 3 June 2024 (UTC)

Also, we don't need the final standings here; only points table is enough. ( see 2023 Cricket World Cup qualification) Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 05:41, 3 June 2024 (UTC)

Edit at Smriti Mandhana

You reverted my edit on Smriti Mandhana by stating it was non-constructive. I want to clarify that I only removed one of the two citations used in the lead for the pronunciation of her name, as both citations serve the same purpose and are redundant. I used the same video as the previous citation but from the original upload on the channel of Asian Paints. Therefore, I don't understand why you consider my edit unconstructive. Please clarify. I am writing this to avoid edit war on the Smriti Mandhana page. Thanks. VK wiki100 06:34, 24 May 2024 (UTC)

The citation given is supposed to state how to pronounce the name like this previous one. But, the one you added is "Asian Paints Presents Where The Heart Is Season 4 Episode 02 featuring Smriti Mandhana". How is that relevant? Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 07:20, 24 May 2024 (UTC)

I didn't add it; it was already there. I just pointed it to the original upload. It is the same as the previous second citation, and Smriti herself pronounces her name in it. That's the reason why it is cited. I've removed the previous first citation because it had only 930 views, and the channel was not trustworthy. It still showed the same pronunciation as Smriti in the second citation, so it was redundant to include both. That's why I've removed the less trustworthy one. VK wiki100 08:01, 24 May 2024 (UTC)

When it comes to pronunciation, simple videos like these: [24][25][26] which only contains the pronunciation are better. Unlike the above 7 minute video which includes many other unrelated contents; these only have what's needed. Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 13:39, 24 May 2024 (UTC)

I understand, but the issue lies in the uncertainty of the reliability of these videos. All three videos you provided have different pronunciations of her name. In this situation, it's best to use a primary source. If you could find a shorter and more to-the-point video of Smriti herself pronouncing her name, that would be very helpful.

Tech News: 2024-24

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Recent changes

• The software used to render SVG files has been updated to a new version, fixing many longstanding bugs in SVG rendering. [27]
• The HTML used to render all headings is being changed to improve accessibility. It was changed last week in some skins (Vector legacy and Minerva). Please test gadgets on your wiki on these skins and report any related problems so that they can be resolved before this change is made in Vector-2022. The developers are still considering the introduction of a Gadget API for adding buttons to section titles if that would be helpful to tool creators, and would appreciate any input you have on that.
• The HTML markup used for citations by Parsoid changed last week. In places where Parsoid previously added the mw-reference-text class, Parsoid now also adds the reference-text class for better compatibility with the legacy parser. More details are available. [28]

Problems

• There was a bug with the Content Translation interface that caused the tools menus to appear in the wrong location. This has now been fixed. [29]

Changes later this week

• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 11 June. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 12 June. It will be on all wikis from 13 June (calendar). [30][31]
• The new version of MediaWiki includes another change to the HTML markup used for citations: Parsoid will now generate a <span class="mw-cite-backlink"> wrapper for both named and unnamed references for better compatibility with the legacy parser. Interface administrators should verify that gadgets that interact with citations are compatible with the new markup. More details are available. [32]
• On multilingual wikis that use the <translate> system, there is a feature that shows potentially-outdated translations with a pink background until they are updated or confirmed. From this week, confirming translations will be logged, and there is a new user-right that can be required for confirming translations if the community requests it. [33]
