Template:Cases in the COVID-19 pandemic

Hello. The changes you are making to Template:Cases in the COVID-19 pandemic are not minor and should not be marked as such. See WP:MINOR. Cheers Fred Gandt · talk · contribs 19:54, 14 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Not only are they not minor (although you're still marking them as such), your changes are major and affect pages which expect the template's results. What were you doing in these edits to Template:Cases in the COVID-19 pandemic/core, for example? You didn't give a goddamned clue in your edit summary, you just ripped out some code silently! Multiple templates use that template, and the templates are used by multiple pages. Did you check to see what effect you were having? Did you care? Are you working with the project, or against it?

Look at this page for example. I reverted your edit above and got this crap. Now somebody has to go through all of your template edits ever and try to fix everything you broke, without breaking anything else. Thanks for nothing. — JohnFromPinckney (talk) 12:57, 15 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@JohnFromPinckney:However, the official websites of JHU and WHO no longer count recovered, so the actroundt being treated cannot be calculated; and the territories parameter no longer displays 192 on the JHU official website, so it should be deleted at the same time. Do you think it still applies? Can't understand your opinion at all. Because according to what you said, why don't you ask why JHU deletes those statistics?--Z7504 (talk) 13:21, 15 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It is recommended to invite two other users to participate in the discussion @TheGreatSG'rean and Dellux mkd: I think there is no problem with deleting this way. If you insist on keeping the old information, you may mislead other readers. Therefore, here's recoveries should still be kept without data (No data). Also, I am a user of zh.--Z7504 (talk) 13:33, 15 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'll be monitoring the data first before making a conclusion. If deleted, then I think the data should be scrapped, with only the cases and deaths reported. TheGreatSG'rean (talk) 13:53, 15 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Well since JHU is no longer counting recovered, I agree that data should be scrapped and only the cases and deaths to be reported. Dellux mkd (talk) 19:28, 15 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see why or where I should ask why JHU deletes those statistics; I don't work at Johns Hopkins, I'm a volunteer at Wikipedia. If the data needed for the template is no longer available, then changing the template is indeed appropriate, but first all uses of the discontinued output should have been removed from every client template, and every page using them. User:Z7504, can I count on you to do that now? With an explanatory edit summary? The page COVID-19 pandemic by country and territory has already been fixed, now please do the rest. Thanks,— JohnFromPinckney (talk) 20:34, 15 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This template is not popular in zh, so have to ask two other users of en. Now these two users have no opinions, forasmuch explained the reason for the change: JHU no longer counts recovered and territories, and WHO does not originally count these two data, so it is no longer applicable, unless JHU resumes calculations. Therefore, basically there is no problem with this change.--Z7504 (talk) 04:47, 16 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I hadn't realised you don't understand English. But no worries, I have taken care of this for you. I believe I have fixed or deleted all usages. — JohnFromPinckney (talk) 05:42, 20 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:COVID-19 data/data

Hello! I noticed you changing data for Taiwan at Template:COVID-19 data/data. This page should only be updated with data from Our World in Data (OWID). The data page is updated daily by a bot, too, so you don't have to update it. If you do update it, though, please do so only with data from OWID (their data are here, data on Taiwan are here). Thank you! Tol (talk | contribs) @ 19:43, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Tol:OK. Because the content of en wikipedia has changed a lot these days, so I don’t know if the relevant regulations have changed. Then don’t have to work so hard to update every day.--Z7504 (talk) 12:17, 6 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
