Western Sahara articles
Thanks As you can see from the histories, I started a lot of the content, but as you can also see, I let it fall fallow a long time ago as well. It's always been in the back of my mind to increase the quality of these articles and I'm always glad for help on Western Sahara-related topics. Thanks for saying hi! —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 00:47, 27 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I noticed there is a lot to improve, but I still think the project is a very good start to work on. It seems like what is really needed is more editors, since it's a huge topic to be covered. I'll see if I can manage to lure some more into Wikipedia :) – Danmichaelo (talk) 09:17, 27 June 2011 (UTC)

Your input is needed on the SOPA initiative
Hi Danmichaelo,

You are receiving this message either because you expressed an opinion about the proposed SOPA blackout before full blackout and soft blackout were adequately differentiated, or because you expressed general support without specifying a preference. Please ensure that your voice is heard by clarifying your position accordingly.

Thank you.

Bushehr nuclear plant
I just wanted to note that I agree with your edits at Bushehr nuclear power plant. It's always good to have editors who are able to notice WP:NPOV violations and correct them. Nanobear (talk) 16:51, 22 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Much appreciated! I was actually a bit worried about touching the articles about the Iranian nuclear program, since I know there are so strong feelings about this out there, but I felt it was necessary. – Danmichaelo (talk) 09:01, 23 February 2012 (UTC)

Your edits regarding a Norwegian "university"
You have edited the Norwegian article about the Women's University in the Nordic countries foundation. I have added info from your version, to the English article.

Note that the both articles have issues related to edit warring and removal of references from national newspapers. (Less critical references from two local newspapers have not been touched. Agenda pushing?) --155.55.60.112 (talk) 10:02, 10 April 2012 (UTC)


 * I have just reverted a reference removal and external link removal in the English article, performed by an administrator from Norwegian wiki. --155.55.60.112 (talk) 10:14, 10 April 2012 (UTC)


 * I'm not really involved in this article, I just did some cleanup during patrolling. Regarding the grant story covered in Bergens Tidende, it's an interesting story worth mentioning, but it should be put in context, not added as an "external link" as you did. I'll add the page to my watchlist. – Danmichaelo (talk) 17:21, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for April 15
Hi. When you recently edited Man, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Platon (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Module:UnitTests/doc
Hello. You linked to Module:ScribuntoUnit from this page, but did not explain how those two modules are related to each other. Is one intended to replace another? Will one be more conservative and stable and the other bleeding-edge and feature-rich? I want to copy a "test framework" to an another Wikipedia and wonder which module to choose. Could you add a short explanation what's the difference between the two modules?

Btw, if you want to advertise ScribuntoUnit, please note how Lua is written - it only mentions one module for unit testing. --Derbeth talk 21:45, 1 January 2014 (UTC)


 * Hi. [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3ALua&diff=588729700&oldid=586730422 Added] a short note now. I was actually in the same situation as you – I started transfering Module:UnitTests to nowiki, but then came across Module:ScribuntoUnit and happened to prefer the coding style of the latter. They are really very similar, so I think it's mainly a matter of preference. – Danmichaelo (talk) 23:14, 1 January 2014 (UTC)

Here's to 2014 being a year of expansion and innovation for TWL!

The Wikipedia Library completed the first 6 months of its Individual Engagement grant last week. Here's where we are and what we've done:

 * Deep networking: Built relationships with Credo, HighBeam, Questia, JSTOR, Cochrane, LexisNexis, EBSCO, New York Times, and OCLC
 * New pilot projects: Started the Wikipedia Visiting Scholar project to empower university-affiliated Wikipedia researchers
 * Developed community: Created portal connecting 250 newsletter recipients, 30 library members, 3 volunteer coordinators, and 2 part-time contractors
 * Tech scoped: Spec'd out a reference tool for linking to full-text sources and established a basis for OAuth integration
 * Broad outreach: Wrote a feature article for Library Journal's The Digital Shift; presenting at the American Library Association annual meeting

The Wikipedia Library: New Account Coordinators Needed
Hi Books & Bytes recipients: The Wikipedia Library has been expanding rapidly and we need some help! We currently have 10 signups for free account access open and several more in the works... In order to help with those signups, distribute access codes, and manage accounts we'll need 2-3 more Account Coordinators.

It takes about an hour to get up and running and then only takes a couple hours per week, flexible depending upon your schedule and routine. If you're interested in helping out, please drop a note in the next week at my talk page or shoot me an email at: jorlowitz@undefinedgmail.com.

fetchLanguageName('no', ...)
Perhaps you can answer this question for me. At Help talk:Citation Style 1/Archive 6 I discovered that  appears to return the wrong value when given ISO639-1 code. I think that it should return 'Norwegian' but instead it returns 'Norwegian (bokmål)', a variant of the official language name assigned to ISO639-1 code  – code   should be 'Norwegian Bokmål'; title case without the parentheses. The magic word which appears to use the same Wikimedia resources also exhibits the problem:

Interestingly:

My question to you is: What, from your perspective, is the correct return value in English for code 'no'?

To save you some confusion, there is a workaround in place in Module:Citation/CS1/sandbox that 'fixes' this issue so the CS1 examples now show 'Norewegian' when no so all of the citation examples at Help talk:Citation Style 1/Archive 6 that purport to show the problem don't actually show the problem now.

—Trappist the monk (talk) 18:09, 14 September 2014 (UTC)


 * I guess there's actually no easy answer to that :) Historically 'no' has been used for 'Bokmål', which is the dominant of the two variants 'Bokmål' and 'Nynorsk', (which are btw. really similar). And it is still used as the site prefix for Norwegian Bokmål Wikipedia (no.wikipedia.org), while we have changed the content language code to 'nb'. Today, following ISO 639, 'no' is technically 'Norwegian' (meaning "unspecified variant of Norwegian; either Bokmål or Nynorsk"), but in practice 'Bokmål' since 'Nynorsk' has always used the code 'nn'. The situation is quite unfortunate, and causes a lot of confusion. Well, if I were to choose, I think I would stick with the default output from mw.language.fetchLanguageName since 'Norwegian' is formally not a written language, only 'Norwegian Bokmål' and 'Norwegian Nynorsk' are. Another option would be to just deprecate the code. – Danmichaelo (talk) 20:01, 14 September 2014 (UTC)


 * That similarity between Bokmål and Nynorsk is, I think, undetectable by those of us who live in the great desert wastelands of North America. If we consult some source written in either variant, we won't go too far astray if we cite that source using no and that renders as (in Norwegian); especially since we can't tell the difference.  Of course, over here, I suspect that most of us haven't got a clue that there are variants; I didn't until I tweaked the code and got those unexpected results.


 * Your points are well taken; thank you for taking the time to enlighten me.


 * —Trappist the monk (talk) 21:59, 14 September 2014 (UTC)


 * Hehe, that's a valid point that didn't come to my mind :) If you're not sure if a text is Bokmål or Nynorsk, it can surely be practical to be able to label it as just 'Norwegian' (using the 'no' code), that should be totally ok. – Danmichaelo (talk) 22:26, 14 September 2014 (UTC)


 * I came to that realization when I looked at and noticed the huge discrepancy between ‎ (2 C, 4,935 P), ‎ (46 P), and ‎ (17 P).  We at enwiki hadn't a clue.  Wouldn't be the first time we were / are clueless

Google Code-In 2019 is coming - please mentor some documentation tasks!
Hello,

Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.

I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!

From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.

If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.

Thank you!

Search results using Bibsys authority search
Hello Danmichaelo. First of all, thank you for writing the Bibsys authority search tool. It's been really helpful in tracking down authority records thus far. One thing I've noticed though, and I'm not sure whether it's intentional or not, is that only the first 25 search results are ever shown, without the added possibility to see any results beyond these initial 25.

For example, this search result indicates there are 103 records found, but doesn't offer the ability to see any of the remaining 78 records. Assuming this isn't by design, besides Chrome, I've also tested it in Safari, and the result is the same. Would it be possible to tweak the tool so as to allow a complete overview of all authority records found through a search query? Thank you and take care! Jay D. Easy (t&#8202;•&#8202;c) 16:03, 5 December 2019 (UTC)


 * Hi Jay. That was just lazyness from my side. I added autopagination now, so it should automatically fetch more results as you scroll down (refresh the page if not). I also added a scope selector to limit the search to persons, corporations or conferences since that's something I've been missing myself. Let me know if you have additional ideas for improvements. By the way, the situation with the name of the authority file is a bit confusing at the moment. They still refer to it as "Bibsys autority file" in the API, but last time I asked they recommended the name "Felles autoritetsregister" (Common authority registry), which is what the National Library is also refering to it as. But I haven't seen an official English name yet. Norwegian authority file has been mentioned, but I'm not sure if that's really intended to be a common name or more a description, so I've sent them an email to clarify the name situation so I can also update the Wikidata entity. – Danmichaelo (talk) 23:53, 5 December 2019 (UTC)

CropTool automatization
