The Invisible Barnstar | |
Thank you for participating in Articles for Creation's January 2023 Backlog Drive! You reviewed 20 drafts, for a total of 28 points. — Ingenuity ( talk • contribs) 00:37, 15 January 2023 (UTC) |
Thanks for your help; I saw you at the top of the leaderboard! I checked the first article you copyedited, and only one section (472 words) had been tagged; you took credit for 1,085 words, which looks like the entire article. (To get the word count for a section, click "Show preview" in edit mode and then "Page size" in the left menu if you have the script installed; otherwise, copy and paste the section into a word processor.) Please keep in mind that barnstars and leaderboard awards are secondary to article improvement. Thanks and all the best, Mini apolis 20:37, 15 January 2023 (UTC)

You were right. It was the new skin. I didn't like it at all. Thanks for helping me to figure that out and turn it off. — Moops ⋠ T⋡ 16:41, 18 January 2023 (UTC) |

The Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar | |
Thank you so much for welcoming me back and for your kindness. It's not something you see a lot of these days, even on WP, and I just wanted to make sure you knew that I appreciated it! I look forward to seeing you around! SPF121188 (talk this way) (my edits) 14:22, 14 February 2023 (UTC) |
Hi! I have tried to update my boss's page 3 different times now, and my edits keep getting removed. What can I do differently to get the edits to permanently stick? -- Clineb1 ( talk) 18:39, 14 February 2023 (UTC)
Hi Tails! I’ve been trying to add a legit external link to a page but it was blocked. I’ve tried to follow the instructions to get it unblocked but they’re very unclear (I don’t know any HTML and wasn’t able to replicate the text in boxes that other uses had supplied). It’s very frustrating. Is this something you might be able to help with? Many thanks! MorgansGirl -- MorgansGirl ( talk) 13:05, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
As per my original question to Tails, I did try to follow the instructions exactly, but having zero knowledge of coding, I didn’t understand them and couldn’t replicate the steps others seem to have taken… MorgansGirl ( talk) 16:31, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
It was the stuff people had in boxes — I couldn’t see how to do that — copy and pasting didn’t work… Blaze that would be amazing, if you don’t mind — the website link I was trying to add is an online Performance Biography of the page’s subject, it’s at gareththomas-actor.com MorgansGirl ( talk) 16:38, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
For some reason my replies aren’t posting. Never mind, I’ll leave it. Thanks for trying to help. MorgansGirl ( talk) 17:04, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
Ok that one did post. This system is beyond frustrating. I’ll give it one more go. MorgansGirl ( talk) 17:05, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
The site should be whitelisted because it’s a Performance Biography created by a professional researcher who’s been given access to the actor’s personal papers MorgansGirl ( talk) 17:06, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
The article that would benefit from the link is Gareth Thomas (actor) MorgansGirl ( talk) 17:07, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
The link is gareththomas-actor dot com MorgansGirl ( talk) 17:10, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
Yes! MorgansGirl ( talk) 17:26, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
It’s just that website address, yes (I can’t type it in this chat, it won’t accept it for some reason) — does it need the https bit as well?
Thanks for your help, I’ve wasted so much time trying to get this sorted today. MorgansGirl ( talk) 18:01, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
The thread won’t let me copy and paste anything. It says it’s adding my reply to the thread, but it doesn’t appear… I’ll have one more go, but then I’m going to have to give up. This shouldn’t be so hard…
I really appreciate the time you’ve taken to try to help me though! MorgansGirl ( talk) 18:07, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
No dice. I also see that others in the thread have their requests headed in Bold but I can’t see how to do that either. I just don’t have the time to figure this out. Shame… MorgansGirl ( talk) 18:12, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
If you could add it, I’d be so grateful. I’m just about ready to throw my computer out of the window… (I can’t see anything that allows text to be changed to Bold, even — I’m actually pretty competent with software, usually, but this system has me completely foxed) MorgansGirl ( talk) 18:38, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
I’m afraid I can’t tell which it is — I’m doing it via Safari — but whenever I try to type in anything resembling a link, my reply vanishes into the ether. I’m guessing this may mean there’s some kind of firewall at the Wikipedia end that’s swallowing my posts… MorgansGirl ( talk) 18:46, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
Ha! I finally got it to post, at the exact same time you did! But I think mine has somehow added itself as a reply to the previous post. Oh my.
Hopefully it will be cleared, then I’ll have the fun of actually trying to add it to the page… though I’m guessing (hoping!) that will be more straightforward.
Thanks for your amazing mentoring today! I don’t think I’ll be trying to make any more edits for a while (you’ll no doubt be relieved to read!).. MorgansGirl ( talk) 19:23, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
Hahaha thanks again — I promise I’m not usually so hopeless! MorgansGirl ( talk) 19:35, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
