Semantic Web history

So that Semantic Web thing... sorry I didn't know a better way to report the problem... but there *is* a problem and it should be put on someone's list to fix it. I'm genuinely interested in the background to the semantic web, because it seems from my knowledge that there were many possible predecessor technologies, yet only some were chosen. So it would be good to get a History section written by someone who actually knows the history. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.241.20.148 (talk) 10:13, 28 October 2013 (UTC)

Michael Thomson Jimsampson (talk) 20:26, 2 November 2013 (UTC)

Hi there, just a quick message to ask why my post was removed. The information is correct. Michael Thomson has four brothers, the youngest of which is John Thomson who is a model for MOT models (the link should have taken you to that page) I felt that this was an informative insight into Michael Thomson's family life.

Proposed deletion of Acupressure ring

The article Acupressure ring has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Pretty much a textbook example of a failure of WP:MEDRS and WP:GNG. The reference in the article is pretty much the only reference you can find, and it's a credulous piece of journalism which says little more than "someone tried this and they think it works".

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles 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 article 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. —Tom Morris (talk) 09:01, 12 November 2013 (UTC)

DYK quid pro quo reviews

Tentinator, now that you have had five DYK hooks posted to the main page, you will be required to do a quid pro quo (QPQ) review of a DYK nomination for each article you nominate for DYK. This includes all nominations you have made that are currently going through the system, and there are a goodly number of these. (According to DYK rules, self-nominated articles must be accompanied by a review of another user's DYK, though the requirement is waived for the first five articles promoted to the main page.)

I've added suggestions on where to look for guidelines on how to review, and where the specific rules are regarding eligibility and what needs to be checked in your Template:Did you know nominations/From There To Here nomination. If you have any questions about the reviewing process, please feel free to let me know. BlueMoonset (talk) 14:40, 15 November 2013 (UTC)

Hi,

Why did my contribution to "Nucleoplasm" get deleted? Is it wrong to say it's called a Nuclear Hyloplasm in english?

VisualEditor newsletter for November 2013

Since the last newsletter, the VisualEditor team has worked on some feature changes, major infrastructure improvements to make the system more stable, dependable and extensible, some minor toolbar improvements, and fixing bugs.

A new form parsing library for language characters in Parsoid caused the corruption of pages containing diacritics for about an hour two weeks ago. Relatively few pages at the English Wikipedia were affected, but this created immediate problems at some other Wikipedias, sometimes affecting several dozen pages. The development teams for Parsoid and VisualEditor apologize for the serious disruption and thank the people who reported this emergency at Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback and on the public IRC channel, #mediawiki-visualeditor.

There have been dozens of changes since the last newsletter. Here are some of the highlights:

• Accidental deletion of infoboxes and other items: You now need to press the Delete or ← Backspace key twice to delete a template, reference or image. The first time, the item becomes selected, and the second time, it is removed. The need to press the delete key twice should make it more obvious what you are doing and help avoid accidental removals of infoboxes and similar (bug 55336).
• Switch from VisualEditor to the wikitext editor: A new feature lets you make a direct, one-way editing interface change, which will preserve your changes without needing to save the page and re-open it in the wikitext editor (bug 50687). It is available in a new menu in the action buttons by the Cancel button (where the "Page Settings" button used to be). Note that this new feature is not currently working in Firefox.
• Categories and Languages are also now directly available in that menu. The category suggestions drop-down was appearing in the wrong place rather than below its input box, which is now fixed. An incompatibility between VisualEditor and the deployed Parsoid service that prevented editing categories and language links was fixed.
• File:, Help: and Category: namespaces: VisualEditor was enabled for these namespaces the on all wikis (bug 55968), the Portal: and Viquiprojecte: namespaces on the Catalan Wikipedia (bug 56000), and the Portal: and Book: namespaces on the English Wikipedia (bug 56001).
• Media item resizing: We improved how files are viewed in a few ways. First, inline media items can now be resized in the same way that has been possible with block ones (like thumbnails) before. When resizing a media item, you can see a live preview of how it will look as you drag it (bug 54298). While you are dragging an image to resize it, we now show a label with the current dimensions (bug 54297). Once you have resized it, we fetch a new, higher resolution image for the media item if necessary (bug 55697). Manual setting of media item sizes in their dialog is nearly complete and should be available next week. If you hold down the ⇧ Shift key whilst resizing an image, it will now snap to a 10 pixel grid instead of the normal free-hand sizing. The media item resize label now is centered while resizing regardless of which tool you use to resize it.
• Undo and redo: A number of improvements were made to the transactions system which make undoing and redoing more reliable during real-time collaboration (bug 53224).
• Save dialogue: The save page was re-written to use the same code as all other dialogs (bug 48566), and in the process fixed a number of issues. The save dialog is re-accessible if it loses focus (bug 50722), or if you review a null edit (bug 53313); its checkboxes for minor edit, watch the page, and flagged revisions options now layout much more cleanly (bug 52175), and the tab order of the buttons is now closer to what users will expect (bug 51918). There was a bug in the save dialog that caused it to crash if there was an error in loading the page from Parsoid, which is now fixed.
• Links to other articles or pages sometimes sent people to invalid pages. VisualEditor now keeps track of the context in which you loaded the page, which lets us fix up links in document to point to the correct place regardless of what entry point you launched the editor from—so the content of pages loaded through /wiki/Foobar?veaction=edit and /w/index.php?title=Foobar&veaction=edit both now have text links that work if triggered (bug 48915).
• Toolbar links: A bug that caused the toolbar's menus to get shorter or even blank when scrolled down the page in Firefox is now fixed (bug 55343).
• Numbered external links: VisualEditor now supports Parsoid's changed representation of numbered external links (bug 53505).
• Removed empty templates: We also fixed an issue that meant that completely empty templates became impossible to interact with inside VisualEditor, as they didn't show up (bug 55810).
• Mathematics formulae: If you would like to try the experimental LaTeX mathematics tool in VisualEditor, you will need to opt-in to Beta Features. This is currently available on Meta-wiki, Wikimedia Commons, and Mediawiki.org. It will be available on all other Wikimedia sites on 21 November.
• Browser testing support: If you are interested in technical details, the browser tests were expanded to cover some basic cursor operations, which uncovered an issue in our testing framework that doesn't work with cursoring in Firefox; the Chrome tests continue to fail due to a bug with the welcome message for that part of the testing framework.
• Load time: VisualEditor now uses content language when fetching Wikipedia:TemplateData information, so reducing bandwidth use, and users on multi-language or multi-script wikis now get TemplateData hinting for templates as they would expect (bug 50888).
• Reuse of VisualEditor: Work on spinning out the user experience (UX) framework from VisualEditor into oojs-ui, which lets other teams at Wikimedia (like Flow) and gadget authors re-use VisualEditor UX components, is now complete and is being moved to a shared code repository.
• Support for private wikis: If you maintain a private wiki at home or at work, VisualEditor now supports editing of private wikis, by forwarding the Cookie: HTTP header to Parsoid ($wgVisualEditorParsoidForwardCookies set to true) (bug 44483). (Most private wikis will also need to install Parsoid and node.js, as VisualEditor requires them.)

Looking ahead:

• VisualEditor will be released to some of the smaller Wikipedias on 02 December 2013. If you are active at one or more smaller Wikipedias where VisualEditor is not yet generally available, please see the list at VisualEditor/Rollouts.
• Public office hours on IRC to discuss VisualEditor with Product Manager James Forrester will be held on Monday, 2 December, at 1900 UTC and on Tuesday, 3 December, at 0100 UTC. Bring your questions. Logs will be posted on Meta after each office hour completes.
• In terms of feature improvements, one of the major infrastructure projects affects how inserting characters works, both using your computer's built-in Unicode input systems and through a planned character inserter tool for VisualEditor. The forthcoming rich copying and pasting feature was extended and greater testing is currently being done. Work continues to support the improved reference dialog to quickly add citations based on local templates.

If you have questions or suggestions for future improvements, or if you encounter problems, please let everyone know by posting a note at Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback. Thank you! Whatamidoing (WMF) 22:03, 20 November 2013 (UTC)

Adding reference to Zapper.com to Zapper Article

Hi Tentinator,

I noticed an entry we submitted on the Zapper page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zapper was removed. Its our first time entering on Wikipedia and we're keen to make sure users are informed about the differences between tools/services using "Zapper" their name. Although we do not compete with other tools using "Zapper" we commonly use the same channels for distribution (web, mobile app stores) and commonly see users getting confused.

Can you please advise how our entry should be modified to make the distinction clearer for our mutual users?

Thanks in anticipation.

Britain and the Sea

Hi Tentinator,

I hope you're very well. I just wanted to explain why I have deleted a small extract from the article on Britain and the Sea. The sentence in question includes a quotation from a private e-mail I sent whilst working as a freelance researcher on the production. I have no objection to Falmouth Aquarium being mentioned, as they were indeed one of the many helpful locations we filmed at over the course of the series, so I have left that reference in this time, along with the associated link.

However, my e-mail was never intended for publication and, out of context, the chosen citation gives undue prominence to one of many filming locations. It also gives the impression that I speak for the BBC, whereas the signature in all BBC e-mails make it clear that messages are confidential and may contain personal views which are not the views of the BBC unless specifically stated. As such, I would be very grateful if my deletion could please stand this time, but I would be more than happy to discuss it further if you have any questions.

Best wishes, --Ceagittins (talk) 17:08, 12 December 2013 (UTC)

Thankyou for this DYK nomination. It's a while since I've received one, and it's always encouraging to know that someone who reads an article finds it interesting enough to nominate! I don't expect the article to get 5,000 readers — I think my usual level is about 1,500 — but even that is a huge increase and very welcome.

Hello! Your submission of Rostraureum tropicale at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and some issues with it may need to be clarified.

Also, could I suggest that when you nominate someone else's article for DYK, especially if they are a new user, you notify them? It would be a really good feeling and sense of actually having contributed if a new user found at that 'their' article was to be featured on the Main Page. I've dropped them a line to let them know, but in future, it'd be great if you could let them know as soon as you nominate an article. Thanks. :) Acather96 (click here to contact me) 16:48, 23 December 2013 (UTC)
