Visible anchor/doc revert
My edit to the documentation was based on Sandbox experiments and direct observation. Editing a section with a visible anchor in it produces a blank auto-filled edit summary, not a "broken" summary. There is no "gray" text in the summary, and there has never been "blue" text in the summary: The text in the "Edit summary" box is and always has been black. If you're talking about the article's history page, section information in summaries has always appeared in light gray text, regardless of whether the "Edit summary" box is auto-filled or manually filled. The auto-filled content of the box is optional in any case, and editors often replace it in toto before saving their changes. Moreover, Wikipedia is not generating HTML5. It appears to be an illegal mix of mostly XHTML and some HTML 4.0 Transitional, as is evident by a simple visual inspection of the source code of any page. If a Wikipedia page is submitted to the W3C Validator, it results in copious errors, since the content of the source does not match the DOCTYPE. Now that I've made you aware of this, how are you going to correct the misinformation on the Visible anchor/doc page? — Quicksilver (Hydrargyrum)T @ 19:20, 22 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Any page on the web which uses  is an HTML 5 document. It may not be valid, but that is what it is. The majority of "invalid" HTML output on Wikipedia is a result of editors using obsolete elements and attributes or incorrect positioning of elements according to the HTML 5 layout rules (see also WP:Linter) rather than being due to the software itself (many documented exceptions exist as tasks to be worked in WP:Phabricator). Validation tools are not the be-all end-all, and the original author of that particular tool has since sworn off that tool somewhat. --Izno (talk) 20:55, 22 December 2018 (UTC)

Replying to your question in a recent edit summary
Hello Redrose64, thank you for your recent efforts to improve Wikipedia. While the rhetorical question you asked in the edit summary doesn't exactly invite a reply, I wouldn't be true to myself, after seeing it, If I didn't stand tall in your presence to proudly acknowledge the same, and ask you directly if there was anything about that edit that you wanted to discuss? I am willing to account for my actions to any needed degree, and as willing to directly move on; depending on whichever you think is best. I'm not, however, keen with pretending that I don't care when I most certainly do. With esteem, I remain.--John Cline (talk) 22:04, 5 January 2019 (UTC)
 * We have templates like and  to simplify how markup is demonstrated, so there should not be a need to re-complicate it with the  and  tags. -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 14:14, 6 January 2019 (UTC)
 * I understand, and primarily agree. I've never reviewed an edit appended by you where there wasn't something that I learned and I thank you for that. At times that process of learning involves reinforcing things that I'd already learned but allowed to fall in disrepair from laziness and a lack of proper focus. In this case I had forgotten that keeping things straight forward and less complex is always the better approach and would have done well to have stayed that course. Chances are good that I'm less inclined now of forgetting again any time soon. Best regards.--John Cline (talk) 21:53, 6 January 2019 (UTC)

Double chimney link on 4767 article
There is no page in existance for the highlighting of the word double chimney so what is the point of the link as it makes absolutely no sense unless your willing to create an article for it since you clearly claim to know more.

Llansadwrn pronunciation
I'm aware that Llansadwrn is not in Ynys Mon, but despite its filename the audio just consists of someone saying "Llansadwrn", which ought to work both for Anglesey Llansadwrn and Carmarthenshire Llansadwrn. I realise there are differences in accent between North and South, but as these two places have the same name should the title of the audio file really be a barrier to including it in this article? Or am I missing something important here? Beorhtwulf (talk) 22:36, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
 * It just seems strange to mention a place at the other end of the country that just happens to share a name. In England, there are a number of places with identically-spelt but differently-pronounced names - such as Gillingham, Dorset and Gillingham, Kent. I expect that there are also examples in Wales. If the pronounciation is basically the same, was it not possible to name the file File:Llansadwrn.ogg? -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 00:12, 16 January 2019 (UTC)

Dundee railway station
Hi there Redrose,

Hope you are well. I wanted to message you to ask why you reverted the Dundee railway station Wikipedia page and placed the former station picture on the infobox?

I don't know if you are from Dundee but there is a new station built and there was updated information I added and I also took a photograph which was then taken down due to copyright even though I captured it because I am a photographer from Dundee.

I appreciate your edits but I don't understand the need of removing the relevant content on the page when it was clearly up to date. KeyKing666 (talk) 16:41, 26 January 2019 (UTC)
 * I didn't revert. I from the article body to the infobox, because there wasn't one there. This in turn was because the one that had been there previously was, see c:User talk:KeyKing666 and [//commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&page=File%3ADundeeRail20180711.png the file logs]. -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 17:30, 26 January 2019 (UTC)

Sorry
Hi Redrose, My apologise I hadn't realised you were reverted otherwise I would've reverted them, I had only just woken up and usually when I've just woken up I never pay any attention to edit summaries but anyway sorry about that, Thanks, – Davey 2010 Talk 14:07, 27 January 2019 (UTC)
 * I have no problem with you making date formats consistent. What I do have a problem with is people like updating the date parameters of cleanup and maintenance templates for no good reason. For example, amending the date of a  implies that they have actually been through the article (as you did) and made any necessary amendments in order to bring about consistency. But their edits to the date params have not been accompanied by any such amendments. -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 14:24, 27 January 2019 (UTC)

Sonasan railway station
created the Sonasan railway station article, then nominated it for deletion seven minutes later. It was tagged as G7. I deleted it as G7/WP:POINT. Rhadow has recreated it again, and it has been tagged again. This is part of the notability of stations discussion at WT:TWP, which you are probably aware of. As I see it, an essay cannot trump policy, which is why station articles need to demonstrate that GNG is met. Would it be in order for me to delete the article and salt it, as has been suggested to me, or am I now WP:INVOLVED? Mjroots (talk) 13:46, 3 February 2019 (UTC)

When you have a moment
Hello R. Sorry about the error. I hope that you are well. When you have the time would you take a look at our old friend Category:Wikipedia pages with incorrect protection templates. One of the items is fully protected so I can't fix it and I'm not sure about about the talk pages. I haven't been monitoring the cat as much as in the past and have forgotten some of the pointers you've given me over the years. My apologies. Best regards. MarnetteD&#124;Talk 15:48, 22 January 2019 (UTC)
 * After making [//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Redrose64?offset=20190123001600&limit=3 these three edits], plus a couple of null edits, there is only one page left: Portal:Dominican Republic. The problem code here is  which is very hard to debug, partly because it uses Lua (Module:Excerpt slideshow), and also because it seems to be picking articles at random (I think from those listed at Template:Dominican Republic topics) and transcluding portions of these. One of these portions almost certainly includes a protection template, either Template:Pp or Template:Pp-protected. You'd need an expert on Template:Transclude list item excerpts as random slideshow to fix this, probably . -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 17:19, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
 * You could do it the old-fashioned way and figure out which of those articles is protected, then wrap the protection template in noinclude tags. It's probably not a bad idea for them to be wrapped in those tags by default. Not meaning to be disrespectful, but what exactly is the point of patrolling that category? Isn't there a bot that resolves most of them? And the templates' display depends on the protection level anyway so pp-semi (for example) won't show on an unprotected page, and will show a gold lock on a fully protected page etc. <b style="color: teal; font-family: Tahoma">HJ Mitchell</b> &#124; <span style="color: navy; font-family: Times New Roman" title="(Talk page)">Penny for your thoughts? 17:51, 23 January 2019 (UTC)

 * HJM. A bot gets most of them but does miss some. Occasionally the bot goes on the fritz and our patrolling of the cat allows use to alert the bot operator that something has gone awry. Checking also allows us to fix transclusion snafus on AFD's and such. MarnetteD&#124;Talk 17:55, 23 January 2019 (UTC)

 * I used Popups to check the histories for recent protections (still not entirely convinced it's a good use of editor time and that's five minutes of my life I won't get back, but I did volunteer myself) and the only one I spotted was Captaincy General of Santo Domingo, but adding the protection template to that article (in noinclude tags) doesn't seem to have solved the problem. <b style="color: teal; font-family: Tahoma">HJ Mitchell</b> &#124; <span style="color: navy; font-family: Times New Roman" title="(Talk page)">Penny for your thoughts? 19:39, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
 * The problem is not one of a protected article that lacks prot tags. It is one where an article (protected or not) has an exposed prot tag, which is being transcluded (along with the desired portion of the article) to Portal:Dominican Republic and so causing the latter page (which is not protected) to appear in . -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 22:19, 23 January 2019 (UTC)

The excerpt slideshow templates have no and limit parameters, which can be used for diagnostics. Playing around with these in preview mode, I found the problem was in article #11, La Trinitaria (Dominican Republic), which had the protection template within heading markup from this edit. This meant that the excerpt functionality (from Module:Excerpt) got confused, and didn't remove the protection template like it usually would. Fixing the article, and then null-editing the portal, has removed the portal from the category. - Evad37 &#91;talk] 23:34, 23 January 2019 (UTC)

Brain farts and template breakage
Hello Redrose64, I received your message about using templates recognized by CluebotIII at wp:an/c, and understand. I actually knew of this already and would have meant to append things correctly; that I did not is one of those inexplicable things that happen, at times, in spite of our best intent. I'll redouble my efforts to ensure future compliance. Aside that, I noticed the substitution of Happy New Year fireworks, further up the page, and observed that it breaks when text is enlarged (in mitigation of visual impairments). I view pages at %170 of the default size; in that situation, its output is thoroughly corrupted. I worked up a tentative fix but would like to see how you would modify the coding (for instructive comparison). If you have the motivation, and time, I'd love to see what changes your experience would bring. Thank you.--John Cline (talk) 18:01, 4 February 2019 (UTC)
 * At WP:AN/RFC, ClueBot III looks for the use of the following templates: ,,,,,,,,,,,, - if ClueBot III finds any one or more of those in a thread, it archives the thread; it's case-sensitive, and doesn't follow redirects, hence all the variations.
 * As to the fireworks, what kind of breakage or corruption is this? -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 22:00, 4 February 2019 (UTC)
 * RR64 template snipe.PNG Redrose64, thank you. Regarding the template, a self evaluation would be best by enlarging your own view using ctrl-shft-+ while the screenshot shows the page as I see it.--John Cline (talk) 03:06, 5 February 2019 (UTC)
 * I have previously noticed that a number of these greetings templates contain poor markup - such as misnesting, elements left unclosed or closed in the wrong order, and I thought at first that what we had here was probably a mis-closed tag. Instead, it seems that we have another kind of sloppiness - making assumptions about the characteristics of another user's setup (device, monitor, browser etc.). The box with a round-cornered border has been drawn to the same height as the images inside it, without allowing for the fact that the text that is also inside the box may be too much to fit in. Consequently, at high zooms and on narrow screens, some of it spills out.  should fix it for that one specific instance. Since it's a substituted template, a similar fix to the template itself may be done, but will only affect future uses - it won't fix the hundreds (if not thousands) of times that the template has been used in the past. -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 11:40, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

Aylesbury Railway Station
Thank you for your instruction. Forgive me, but I don't understand 'pipe' and 'redirect'. Could you enlighten me? Valetude (talk) 20:53, 5 February 2019 (UTC)
 * The pipe character is a vertical line like this &rarr; | &larr; we use it in wikilinks when we want the displayed link to differ from the name of the page that we are linking to, as in  which produces British Railways, see Help:Link. But that can be cumbersome, and a means for simplifying links exists, the redirect: basically, a redirect is a way of giving a page another name - if you link to that other name, and click the link, you are taken directly to the "real" page. This allows us to write   which produces British Railways, see Help:Redirect. -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 21:26, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

Category question
Is there a way of changing the way that a category's name displays on a page, whilst still linking to the actual category? Similar to how a piped link works. Mjroots (talk) 18:33, 7 February 2019 (UTC)
 * No. -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 21:11, 7 February 2019 (UTC)

 * Category:Pinnipeds /
 * Pinnipeds /

 * - No, I meant what I asked. Looks like we'll need add some code in somewhere then, something like  so that a category's display can be changed if desired. Mjroots (talk) 21:35, 7 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Oh, so still at the bottom in the normal cat bar?  On MediaWiki generally this is easy (it's accessible through the skinning, and I recall there are already extensions that do it).  The one time I've done it, I had regexes matching category names and then colour coding them based on embedded prefixes (this made sense for that business, as the categories were already based on product names).  For WP though, I think it's unlikely to ever happen. Andy Dingley (talk) 21:51, 7 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Colour coding is one thing but changing the text of the link is another. Consider the page title displayed at the top: we allow this to be altered in some ways, such as italicisation for the names of books like Moby-Dick, but we don't allow different characters to be displayed. -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 22:00, 7 February 2019 (UTC)

Suzannah Lipscomb I wonder why you changed the order of the subject's last book listed under Bibliography. The book I refer to is Witchcraft, it is ordered differently to the previous books, and as she has a new book coming out on 14th February it would be useful to understand why, and also why, if you changed the order of this book, you didn't do the same with her previous books?

Thank you.

Survey regarding the community guidelines for my master thesis
Hello Redrose64, I see that you revert my User Talk page edits with the unauthorized survey comment. Therefore, I wondered whom's authorization I would need to ask users to participate in my survey. I already asked the admin noticeboard as well as the help desk if my approach would be ok. For my posts on the user pages I oriented myself at the sample text provided by Wikipedia.

Kind regards,

Robert Wintermeyer--Rwinterm (talk) 16:41, 10 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Which edmin noticeboard? Which help desk? Please link the discussions. -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 18:07, 10 February 2019 (UTC)
 * The Admin Board history discussion and the Help desk/Archives/2019 January 24. Yet, I saw today that someone also mentioned I could add it to the Village pump. Would it be ok if I add in the Village pump under the Miscellaneous rubric? I don't mean to disturb anyone --Rwinterm (talk) 20:31, 10 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Apologies, but we have had trouble in the past from people with few (or no) prior Wikipedia edits who then send out requests to participate in a survey of some sort, falsely claiming that they have the authority or backing of the Wikimedia Foundation (or similar organisation). So when going through my watchlist and see that various user talk pages have each received near-identical posts concerning a survey, I get concerned.
 * Anyway, if you send (or re-send) such notices in future, it would be best if you would please include a note that you have been given agreement for the survey, and include in that note the links to Administrators' noticeboard/Archive306 and Help desk/Archives/2019 January 24. That way, people will be aware that you have not decided to come in "cold" with a series of spammy posts. -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 23:50, 10 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Ah okay. Yes I get that issue, that's why I approached the community before I started contacting people. I'm glad we could resolve the issue. I will follow your advice with including the links, thank you. --Rwinterm (talk) 18:15, 11 February 2019 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

CYM Group
You removed my comment on the notability talk page "I have proposed CYM Group for deletion but I am hoping for some input in the discussion as to whether achieving a Guinness World Record and some press attention is sufficient to give notability to this otherwise non-notable student club. Alternatively, the article could be redirected or merged." I wanted to establish what the consensus was about this. Did I put the query in the wrong place? Cwmhiraeth (talk) 15:16, 19 February 2019 (UTC)
 * It wasn't at "the notability talk page" (presumably you are thinking of Wikipedia talk:Notability), it was at Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion, which is the talk page for discussing improvements to the page Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. The WP:AFD process creates a certain amount of automatic notification for each nomination; and we also permit a certain amount of extra publicity - informing the creator of the page is encouraged, it's also permitted to inform major contributors, and we also have the WP:DELSORT and WP:AALERTS processes. All this is covered by WP:AFD, which says nothing about putting a notice on WT:AFD - if we encouraged this, it would gain something like 80-100 new sections each day.
 * As it is, your AfD is transcluded (copied in full, verbatim) to these pages: Articles for deletion/Log/2019 February 18; Articles for deletion/Log/Yesterday (this one will be removed at midmight (UTC) tonight); WikiProject Deletion sorting/Asia; WikiProject Deletion sorting/Education; WikiProject Deletion sorting/Organizations; WikiProject Deletion sorting/Vietnam.

 * , it shows as uncollapsed at Template:Réseau Albert RDT but will be collapsed when transcluded, unless the parameter no is provided. The article is certainly better than Start-class, but I don't have time for a WP:BCLASS assessment, so I've given it C-class. The MILHIST banner has busted this back down to Start because WP:MHA says that for C-class, "the article meets B1 or B2 as well as B3 and B4 and B5 of the B-Class criteria" and I didn't fill in the checklist. In other words, a MILHIST C-class is the same as everybody else's B-class except that either B1 or B2 is not met, and they don't care about B6. -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 17:29, 24 February 2019 (UTC)

Timestamps, RfC's, and Legobot
Re your edit, I thought that when a new topic area was added to an RfC tag after the bot had already initially processed the tag, that I needed to place a comment/timestamp before the initial timestamp in opening RfC statement in order to get the bot to process the newly added topic area. Is this not correct? Will Legobot see the change anyway even without a new timestamp?  Sparkie82 ( t • c ) 05:21, 25 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Legobot is somewhat peculiar when it comes to RfCs. I've been observing its behaviour for about four years now, and have worked out what it does in various circumstances. Legobot runs frequently, but has a number of different tasks; for RfCs, it's essentially once an hour. As far as I can tell, during each RfC run, Legobot checks all open RfCs. A full description of what it does is lengthy, I won't bother to do that. The main points are:
 * If you add another RfC category - in this case bio - to an tag that has at least one category already, Legobot will add the RfC to the appropriate listing page - in this case WP:RFC/BIO - on its next run
 * If you alter anything between the tag and the first timestamp, or alter that timestamp, Legobot will amend the RfC listing pages will be amended to match on its next run
 * So if you are adding another RfC category to the tag, it's not normally necessary to do anything else. -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 17:48, 25 February 2019 (UTC)

Train IP editor
Hi there. Sorry to bother you but if you had a moment could you please have a look / keep a bit of an eye on this editor? They are only editing train articles but with some apparently bizarre/random effects – everything they've done so far has been reverted by me or others. It's not obvious vandalism but it's not really working out either. I don't want to be bitey at them and I don't know enough about trains to know if there is some sense in what they are doing like, I don't know, class numbers that are used in different ways or something. But you might know that stuff! So a quick look would be much appreciated. With thanks and best wishes DBaK (talk) 22:57, 1 March 2019 (UTC)

Railway stations
Hi...What was the name of that railway station that was never built...in Kent? Would it be in the book by Raymond Butt? Would the book have anything on Victoria station and platform 17? I notice that the article on Victoria station doesn't mention anything about it. Whispyhistory (talk) 05:48, 28 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Would it be Lullingstone railway station? &#8209; Iridescent 08:34, 28 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Yes, that's the station that I mentioned a few months ago; I first heard about it here but at that time, hadn't yet started the article. It's not mentioned in Butt because it never opened. Butt does not describe alterations to a station (such as the opening or closing of individual platforms). For Victoria, Butt shows:
 * VICTORIA LB&SC OP 1 October 1860 (VS&P)
 * VICTORIA MD OP 24 December 1868
 * VICTORIA SE&C OP 25 August 1862 LC&D(VS&P)
 * This describes three different stations at one location: the abbreviations are: LB&SC - London, Brighton and South Coast Railway; OP - Opened; VS&P - Victoria Station and Pimlico Railway; MD - Metropolitan District Railway; SE&C - South Eastern and Chatham Railway; LC&D - London, Chatham and Dover Railway.
 * The first and third the three stations are the two halves of the main-line station - these are treated as two separate stations because that's how they were built and administered until the start of 1923, and the second is the Underground station. Although just over 100 years separated the opening of the District line platforms and the Victoria line platforms (March 1969), the Victoria line isn't mentioned because its platforms shared a ticket hall with the District, which makes them the same station. -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 12:39, 28 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks both...I was reading this Whispyhistory (talk) 17:04, 28 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Part of the reasons the platform numbering at Victoria is inconsistent over the years is that the practice of earmarking one or two platforms as an international terminal was regularly introduced and abandoned, owing to the fluctuating popularity of boat trains and the shifting abilities of the creaking infrastructure at Dover Western Docks, Folkestone and Newhaven Marine to process paperwork. Victoria is a nightmare to write about as there were so many different companies involved in operating it and they all had different archiving systems, plus while there are a lot of writers who specialise in the history of the Southern Railway and its predecessors as well as the feverishly active Southern Railway Group and their regular magazines, the Kent lines tend not to get much attention as it was always the London–Brighton and London–Portsmouth lines that were strategically and commercially significant and consequently got the fancy buildings and the shiny new locomotives. (Although Kent is nearest to the continent, during the railway age London, Harwich and Southampton were the major ports and Dover/Folkestone were something of a backwater as they weren't convenient for onward shipping of goods. Dover in particular had (and has) very poor freight facilities, owing to the docks being in a confined and unexpandable area at the foot of the cliff.) &#8209; Iridescent 19:51, 28 February 2019 (UTC)
 * ...had a look earlier today... I can sort of see the different areas of the station. Would the platform numbers have changed? Is platform 17 in 1939 the same as platform 17 today? The Imperial Airways building (now the National Audit Office) would be at its end. Interesting. Thanks. Whispyhistory (talk) 14:03, 1 March 2019 (UTC)
 * The platform numbering has changed, I don't know how often. Present-day platforms 1 to 8 are the "Chatham side", the former LC&D station; platforms 9 to 19 are the "Brighton side", the former LB&SC station. At the start of 1923, the LB&SC and LC&D amalgamated with other railways to create the Southern Railway, and the two stations became one. Despite that amalgamation, there is still a wall in between platforms 8 and 9 with [[Media:Victoria Station Concourse.jpg|these archways]] - the rightmost arch was created in 1924, soon after amalgamation; the left and middle arches are comparatively recent, dating from the 1990s. The two sides of the station are of differing architectural styles, and Platforms 2 to 7 have their buffer stops closer to the street than the other platforms. [[Media:DISTRICT(1888) p142 - Victoria Station (plan).jpg|This plan]] shows that at one time the two sides each had a separate series of numbers, with platform numbers 2, 3, 4 and 5 being duplicated. Interestingly, the Chatham side (headed "L C & D Ry) seems to have numbered the tracks rather than the platforms: numbers 1, 6 and 8 seem to correspond with tracks that have no platform, but on the Brighton side (headed "L B & S C Ry) there are unnumbered tracks without platforms, for example between platforms 2 & 3. You may find more info in these books: Southern Main Lines: Victoria to East Croydon, Southern Main Lines: Victoria to Bromley South, London Suburban Railways: South London Line, all of which have photos taken at different periods along with contemporary maps. -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 18:36, 1 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Thank you. A wealth of knowledge...just to think how many times I have walked through without noticing. I hope someone can integrate some of that into the history of the station. I think the current platform 17 is likely the same Imperial's private platform that took passengers to Southampton and the flying boats, therefore bypassing flights from Croydon. Whispyhistory (talk) 09:26, 2 March 2019 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure about Victoria—aside from Droxford which is something of a unique case, I haven't paid much attention to the Southern—but in general at the big London termini the private platforms were tucked away in physically separate structures to stop other people wandering in. The Necropolis terminal at Waterloo is probably the most obvious example, but there are instances right up to the present day such as the Eurostar terminal at Waterloo. Ritchie333 might still have the sources lying around. If you really want to go down the rabbit hole with regards to London railway stations, the London Railway Record has been running for long enough that by now it's at some point or other published an article on just about everything, but the back issues can be quite hard to find—it's so niche that no library other than that of the London Transport Museum is likely to keep it. &#8209; Iridescent 17:56, 2 March 2019 (UTC)

 * 1) When do I use  exactly? When the RfC peters out? I thought it was just for when I use Done. (I have no intention of completing the request)
 * 2) Does using Already done work the same as Done from a bot standpoint? (My initial instinct was no, but then it's a template listed in the edit notice, so I self-reverted.)
 * 3) Why are none of Cluebot's procedures written down exactly?
 * 4) Wait, does saying Not Done mean anything besides that I personally am not able to do it after I indicated I could?
 * Normally, the template displays its message in colour (blue, green or boldfaced red according to the supplied date and the type parameter) in order to draw the attention of humans to those threads that still require attention; such instances of the template will also put the page into . When no further action is required on this request, we add yes as a signal to the  template that it should display using normal-weight black instead of a colour; it also prevents that instance of the template from putting the page into  (of course, there is a high probability that other threads are still unfinished, so the page will still end up in  - but because of other, not because of the one in this thread). Basically, it's used not just when  is added, but whenever you add any of the templates that will be detected by . These templates are listed (in abbreviated form) in the archivenow parameter of the  in the first section of the page (please note, the list is case-sensitive, which is why both   and   are present). Since  and  are both in that list, use of those templates means that the thread is to be archived on the next ClueBot III run; and so  means "this is not going to be done by anybody, so we are rejecting this request".

 * Hello Redrose64, I have a question to these regards. Wouldn't using {{subst:Not done}} with an optional message and ~  allow the markup and signed message to post without signaling ClueBot III to initiate the archiving process? If so, and it seems that it should, substituting would make for an expedient work around IMO. Thank you.--John Cline (talk) 04:46, 3 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Yes, it would defeat ClueBot III. But why would you want to use that anyway? Whether you use or, it's a signal to everybody that the request is not going to be actioned and can therefore be moved to the archive. -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 14:58, 3 March 2019 (UTC)
 * I figure that the signer's optional comment should provide the definitive context.--John Cline (talk) 16:25, 4 March 2019 (UTC)
 * If you're not going to be taking on a request, just leave it for others to pick up. There's no need to mark it to say that you won't personally be closing it. If we all did that, every thread would have about a dozen "not done" marks and we wouldn't see the wood for the trees. -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 20:24, 4 March 2019 (UTC)

RfC closure
Hey. I saw this edit you made, where you marked that an rfc had been closed. If you look at the previous edit to the page, you see that Matt did not in fact close the discussion, but nor did they say it shouldn't be closed; rather, they said it should be closed by someone else, meaning that it was not yet done. I would just undo your edit and leave an explanation, but the thread has since been archived, and I know that ClueBot III does some fancy stuff when it archives, so I don't know what to do - the RfC still needs to be closed.

Indept Pedantry
It may serve you well if you were a little bit more caring about important things (particularly removing WP:DRIVEBY tagging, inappropriate photographs) and rather less pedantic about unimportant things such as calling engines "she". Tony May (talk) 01:33, 6 March 2019 (UTC)
 * If you are going to, you must either supply a source, or remove the disputed claim - specifically the sentence They were also classified as Class G3 under the former LNWR system. The edit summary "It is in the sources." does not satisfy the policy on verifiability (which is a core content policy) - you need to state exactly which sources. If the claim had also been made elsewhere in the article with a source, it would have been a different matter.
 * As for calling engines "she", it may have escaped your notice but I and others have spent well over a year persuading Moylesy98 not to use "she" and "her"; only in the last few weeks am I seeing that they are starting to pay attention. This is not unimportant, but part of the Wikipedia Manual of Style, see MOS:GNL (and the related essay WP:GNL).

Nuneaton Bridge railway station......possible inclusion on Wikipedia existing line templates.
There is a very short Wikipedia article on this station, to which you were the last person who made an edit upon, so I send my query to you. The station is shown as being in working timetables, being opened on 1 March 1866 and closed on 1 October 1887. Its situation is said to be between the two stations of Nuneaton Abbey Street and Hinckley.

Do you think it should be included as an entry on the Wikipedia Template : Birmingham to Peterborough Line or any other Wikipedia line templates where Nuneaton Abbey Street and Hinckley are shown?

Do I find myself caught between an ongoing dispute between Tony May and your good self? I was unaware of any such dispute until I read your response above. I have always been grateful to you for the kind manner in which your have responded to my enquiries in past years, so this is why I made the original response to you. Therefore, can you act as an intermediary on my behalf and ask a fellow member if they can assist in my enquiry.

 * Where exactly is Nuneaton Bridge situated? There's a whole lot going on between Nuneaton Abbey Street and Hinckley… Useddenim (talk) 05:05, 8 March 2019 (UTC)

If you look at this very short Wikipedia article on Nuneaton Bridge station, all it gives information about location is the box at the foot stating it lies between the two stations that I have stated above, so it will either be before or after the currently open Nuneaton station. When people write a new Wikipedia article on a station, it would help if information regarding its location could be incorporated. So all I have to go on is this and I do not know the exact location, as this very question was asked of me by someone else who also noted the Wikipedia article on Nuneaton Bridge station. Perhaps you may know someone on Wikipedia well versed in the knowledge of the railway area of Nuneaton who could provide it. However, thank you for responding so quickly.

Extending RfC and div tags
Re your edit here... Thank you for letting me know about that (other) Legobot bug. I was not aware that including div tags in the opening statement would mess up Legobot's handling of entries in the RfC topic discussion pages. I carefully reviewed WP:RFC and Template:Rfc/doc prior to making my edit, but there were no warnings there about using div tags. (Note: I just edited each of those pages to add such a warning.) My intention is to extend the discussion another thirty days per Requests_for_comment, which says to add a new timestamp between the rfc tag and the original signature. There is no guideline provided as to how to do that -- I thought that placing a short comment about the extension, right justified immediately after the the template message would be appropriate.  Sparkie82 ( t • c ) 16:03, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
 * It doesn't matter where it is ultimately displayed - whatever occurs in the Wikisource after the tag is copied to the RfC listings, up to and including the next timestamp. This means that if you have an opening HTML tag in that interval, but the matching closing HTML tag is after the timestamp, only one of the pair will be copied to the RfC listings. It doesn't matter if it is div, small or anything else - imbalanced HTML is an error. So if there is an opening  between the  and the timestamp, there must also be a closing  between that  and the timestamp in order to balance it. -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 18:40, 9 March 2019 (UTC)

No need for comma to be inside the link
Well, I suppose so. There is also no harm in setting the comma inside the link. I was trained many, many years ago to set the following punctuation mark in the same style as the preceding word. Do you have some special reason to change it? &#39;&#39;Paul, in Saudi&#39;&#39; (talk) 04:01, 15 March 2019 (UTC)
 * You refer to where you had used what I believe is known as "typesetters' punctuation". We don't do that in Wikipedia (how often have you seen other links constructed in that manner?), instead we use "logical punctuation". The best descriptions mainly concern quotation marks (see for example Quotation marks in English, MOS:TQ and Logical quotation on Wikipedia), but they really cover all forms of punctuation. Just as we don't introduce commas into quotations where the actual material being quoted has no comma, we shouldn't introduce commas into links where the actual page being linked has no comma. This is akin to MOS:PIPEDLINK, the bullet beginning "Intuitiveness. Keep piped links as intuitive as possible." (notice how I put the full stop inside the quotes there, because it's a whole sentence and is also part of the material being quoted) Alternatively, think of it like this: is the comma a part of the actual name of the article that you are linking to? If so, include it in the link; if not, don't. -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 11:15, 15 March 2019 (UTC)

Customizing time display
I believe you once helped me—I think at WP:VPT back in 2016—with something related to time formatting and it involved doing something in my vector.js or something somewhere in one of my settings pages. Currently, signatures are displaying like this: Today, 9:32 am (UTC−7), March 9, 2019, 2:21 pm (UTC−8). In terms of what's actually displayed once an edit is saved, is it possible to just have Today, 9:32 AM, March 9, 2019, 2:21 PM? (Capital AM or PM and no UTC -X, as I know what time zone the times are in.)

I don't remember where the discussion was, but you provided me with CSS to keep the strike-through while hovering over blocked users' names. I've since had those pages deleted since it was turned into an option. And yes, that code in my vector.js is doing something. Remember that my signatures are being displayed like this, per what I stated above: March 9, 2019, 2:21 pm (UTC−8). Without that code in there, they display like so: 2:21 pm, 9 March 2019, Saturday (12 days ago) (UTC−8). Is there anything I can add to that code so signatures display as March 9, 2019, 2:21 PM?

It might not be capable, so an amendment to the code may be necessary. I'm not a JavaScript expert, and last year (as with all other regular admins) they took away my right to edit .js and .css pages. I can't even view the deleted edits of User:Amaury/common.css or User:Amaury/common.js to see if I did anything there in the past; if you need these pages back, you can post at WP:IANB.

Croydon Airport robbery

 * You've used
 * £21 thousand (equal to £0 in )
 * which is a good start. But it's not an exact conversion, so the word "equal" is inappropriate, "equivalent" would be better:
 * £21 thousand (equivalent to £0 in )
 * Also, it's capital wealth so you have used the wrong scale, see (first box, including the phrase "For inflating capital expenses, government expenses, or the personal wealth and expenditure of the rich") and compare this:
 * £21 thousand (equivalent to £0 in )
 * You don't need the  if you use the c parameter:
 * £21 thousand (equivalent to £ in )
 * Since the left hand side uses the word "thousand" instead of the figures 000, the right hand side should do the same
 * £21 thousand (equivalent to £ thousand in )
 * which is also rounded sensibly. What else is lacking here? -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 11:08, 27 March 2019 (UTC)

User contributions
Hi, RR - I was wondering if there is/could be a search function implemented in user contributions to allow keyword searches so we can more easily locate a specific edit we made weeks or years ago? For example, I remember working on Abinta Kabir Foundation which is now deleted but I don't remember when I worked on it and only vaguely recall tagging it for deletion. In article edit history, we can isolate a specific user's edits but not if the page is deleted, and that's where a keyword search in our user contribs would come in handy, or perhaps there's already a way available to us now and I'm not aware of it? The date range feature only works if you remember the dates. <span style="text-shadow:#F8F8FF 0.2em 0.2em 0.4em,#F4BBFF -0.2em -0.3em 0.6em,#BFFF00 0.8em 0.8em 0.6em;color:#A2006D">Atsme Talk 📧 11:41, 3 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Searching the "all revisions" database—which I think is what you're suggesting—would fry the servers, and the WMF would almost certainly veto allowing it on the live wiki; this is why the edit-counter tool, which is performing a much simpler query, is disabled for editors with large numbers of edits. (Try searching even a single article-history for the addition of a keyword and see how long it takes.) The only practical way to make such a thing viable would be to persuade someone to host an off-wiki backup of the all-pages-all-revisions database and use that for searching, but since the full database is now up to (I think) 25TB, I doubt anyone would want to host it. &#8209; Iridescent 12:14, 3 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi, Iridescent - I don't know if my request would key-up an "all revisions" database. I would think the search would be limited to only my edits in the existing User (Atsme) contribution database the same way a search to isolate a particular user's contributions in an article's edit history or talk page history would be done. What I'm querying would be more like opening your own "User contributions" (either in the left or top margin menu bar) and when that page appears, there would be a search bar to find keywords in your logged contributions like there is now for date ranges. I think wmflabs searches an "all revisions" database via editor interaction tools but what I'm asking for is just a bit more specific than isolating a date range in User contributions view. We keep that date option, but add the keyword option as well so when we can't remember "when" we can still search by keyword (say a word we remember in the edit summary, or article title). <span style="text-shadow:#F8F8FF 0.2em 0.2em 0.4em,#F4BBFF -0.2em -0.3em 0.6em,#BFFF00 0.8em 0.8em 0.6em;color:#A2006D">Atsme Talk 📧 12:57, 3 April 2019 (UTC)
