Legislation
Hello. I have noticed that you have been replacing the twenty year lists of Acts of Parliament with yearly lists. The pre-1880 lists are already in the process of being corrected and improved. I think those lists should be left intact until that process is completed. If the footnotes in those lists were deleted or orphaned, it would negate months of effort to correct the errors in those lists, to ensure that articles and redirects are located at appropriate page names, and to identify the status and origins of short titles and popular titles. (Template:Legislationuk does not seem to have provision for footnotes, popular titles, or Acts that have multiple names, as far as I can see). Best regards. James500 (talk) 23:18, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Hi James - the template has provision for footnotes (and other features) via optional parameters, and I will be implementing additional options such as popular titles and Acts with multiple names in time with more, although the most logical implementation won't be clear until I've had a look at specific Acts and worked out what would make most sense. As such, I've been doing this as I go along in reverse chronological order - you can see that I have (for example) included provision for Provisional Order confirmations in local Acts where the long title to the Act itself is unhelpful. This will become more relevant in Acts confirming multiple unrelated Orders. I have also been converting it into Lua and working on increasing the efficiency so as to not run up against some of WP's limitations. If you want to see module code behind the template you can do so here, though it's still a work in progress (albeit nearing completion). Citations are automatically generated by date and chapter number using a database accessed by the Lua module, which will become more relevant pre-1963.
 * In any event, I anticipate that it will be quite a while before I would be intending to work on 19th century legislation, but please be assured that I have not been whole-sale deleting the information that is there, and I have been working from primary sources throughout. For example, I have been manually typing out long titles and cross-checking against OCRs of scans so as to catch any errors in both. --Theknightwho (talk) 23:23, 14 July 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for the thanks, even though it seems from the above that my assumption was incorrect. What I was really lookiy for was the infobox. I use it so rarely that I misremembered it as a template. So it would be good if you could add a least some skeleton doc for other editors if I was wrong. --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 09:47, 15 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Yes, I realised just after that it wasn't quite correct. I've been meaning to do some documentation for a while, but real life has got in the way! I've actually decided that the best approach is to upload the relevant data onto Wikidata and to then port that over onto Wikipedia - it's logistically neater, more flexible, and ensures consistency where information is duplicated (e.g. lists of legislation by topic; and I have also been contemplating a UK legislation citation template which would draw down the relevant info and format it correctly based on a simple input). Implementing that will require a total rewrite of much of the template, and so I'm reluctant to do much in detail until then. When I get the chance, I'll put something up, though, as it'd be good to have skeleton documentation in the meantime. Theknightwho (talk) 15:26, 18 November 2021 (UTC)

You might want to add that book reference to New Year's Day? --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 13:21, 24 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Good shout - have done. Theknightwho (talk) 13:36, 24 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Btw, I think you have the wrong publisher? It should be British Academy. Also, I believe we should recognise the Hathi Trust? --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 13:37, 24 November 2021 (UTC)
 * So I was a little confused, as the cover to that edition cites OUP, though I think it wasn't published in volume X until later. I don't think the page numbers line up if we use that citation, though I'm about to rush off somewhere so will have a look later. Theknightwho (talk) 13:39, 24 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Odd, surely we are looking at the same book on the Hathi Trust site? --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 17:00, 24 November 2021 (UTC)
 * I assume so - if you look at what Hathi calls page 3, the bottom half of the page mentions OUP. The page numbers for the Proceedings seem to be pp. 113-137, going by this source Theknightwho (talk) 18:55, 24 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Ah, I see. published for by the British Academy by the OUP. My mistake. Somehow I read it first time as ''printed'. --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 20:43, 24 November 2021 (UTC)
 * No problem. I've also added a second new source by Pollard, which adds some further clarifications. The more I read into it, the more confusing it gets! Theknightwho (talk) 21:44, 24 November 2021 (UTC)

Typeface and font introduction dates
Hi, thanks for your additions here. However, I have found that it's often best to be clear that precision is not possible, especially in the metal type period. Often a lack of surviving archives makes it hard to date when exactly typefaces appeared, you often only know which specimens include types but they were not released annually, or there are dates in reference works with no source or explanation which are hard to trust. I explain this in the Semplicità and Albertus articles for example. With very very few exceptions (like Clarendon, which was registered) I would not give dates of introduction for any pre-1950 typeface, certainly not unless you've personally verified it in a very, very reliable reference book.

You seem to be categorising a lot of redirects taking them from the names of typefaces on the Stephenson Blake article. I don't think that article is very good, it was created by an editor who threw in a lot of information I don't believe is reliable. (It's one of the things I just haven't got around to checking and cleaning up.) In particular now I look at it, I suspect that "Doric 12" is a confusion of Caslon's first sans-serif, which first appears in 1816 but is probably earlier (and isn't 12pt size), with Caslon's later sans-serifs named Doric, introduced about 70 years later. I would not use it as a source for creating redirects and categories, they could confuse people. Blythwood (talk) 21:22, 16 December 2021 (UTC)


 * Hiya - that's fair enough! I have categorised the redirects under the Stephenson Blake category in any event (or whichever was appropriate for the others), so they are easy to track down and sort out if necessary. Two pre-1950 typefaces that I know for certain have the correct dates are Doves type (1900) and Record type (1774), as I'm familiar with the histories of both. I get the impression that a lot of this also comes down to the ambiguity of the term "introduced", which seems to be a generic WP term for "came about". It seems to be variously used to mean "first cut" and "first used in a published work" in this context, which isn't helpful. Theknightwho (talk) 21:30, 16 December 2021 (UTC)

Hi. Based on your edit summary for your page move of Co-operative and Community Benefit Societies and Credit Unions Act 1965, the text of Co-operative and Community Benefit Societies and Credit Unions Act 2010 seems to be outdated. Can you correct it to say what the current status is, if this was repealed? Thanks, wbm1058 (talk) 15:42, 27 January 2022 (UTC)

A research project suggestion (if you know interested people)..
In an item on the BBC News website (https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-60478725) it was mentioned that there was a view that paying digtial ransom demands should be illegal.(see https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-57173096)

My thought was that Wikiversity would be an appropriate place for someone familiar with the relevant (English) law (and ideally access to a library of existing relevant caselaw reports), to draft what's essentially a journal article as to (as of December 2022) the position in English law was currently.

An extension of such a research project would be the creation of a draft bill containing appropriate amending clauses to statute law, relevant to the issue concerned.
 * One example clause could, for example be to make the payment of a "digital ransom demand" a "recoverable loss." which companies could legally recover from the individuals and organizations that undertake so-termed "ransomware" attacks.

I would not be qualified or have the confidence to undertake such a research project, but you perhaps know people with such experience in the Wikimedia sphere that might be interested.

About lantern ghosts
Hello! You moved the article titled Chōchin-obake‎ to Chōchin'obake‎; I am considering moving it back, because there was prior consensus for that version, but I thought I would just ask you personally to see if we can sort it out. I do not know how much you know about Japanese - for example your previous edit to Onoda: 10,000 Nights in the Jungle was precisely correct, but your edit summary to this article suggests you have missed the point. You mentioned a "dash", but there is no dash, only a hyphen. You have not "normalised" the romanisation, you have changed the form of the term. This is a noun-noun compound, of two (quite ordinary) words: chōchin (lantern) and obake (ghost). There are no rules in Japanese for word spacing or hyphenation, because these do not exist in normal writing; it is simply written 提灯おばけ. I think it is better to show the non-Japanese-reader that there are two elements; these could be separated either by a space or a hyphen. See my comments at the top of the talk page about the name. Imaginatorium (talk) 08:05, 30 June 2023 (UTC)


 * @Imaginatorium It is common for compound terms to be treated as a single word when referring to a specific concept. I normalised it to the agreed form at Help:Japanese, but you are right that there several different possibilities for doing this. However, if there is a general consensus to use one we should be consistent.
 * On a minor note, “dash” can be used to mean “hyphen” in casual language. Theknightwho (talk) 12:12, 30 June 2023 (UTC)

Dêqên Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture
Hello, Theknightwho,

If you are going to revert all of an editor's work on a subject, you need to start a conversation with them, either one on their User talk page or join the discussion they already started on an article talk page. Please communicate with them and present your reasons for changing the names back. This will help avoid an edit war or other disruptive activity. But please do not just do mass reverting of all of their edits on a subject. If you need a third or fourth opinion, bring the difference of opinion to the talk page of an appropriate WikiProject so it isn't just a "me vs. you" issue. You're an experienced editor, please reach out and offer a reason for all of your reversions byond what is says in an edit summary. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 19:54, 8 November 2023 (UTC)


 * I provided a short, policy-based explanation in the edit summary of my initial move: "Per WP:COMMONNAME. See talk." On the talk pages of both Deqin County and Diqing Prefecture, I gave more detailed explanations.
 * It seems that your primary concern is the erasure of Tibetan names, but as I explained on the talk pages of both Deqin County and Diqing Prefecture, Dêqên is not the original Tibetan name of the area; it was decided upon by the first Chinese governor of the prefecture. In fact, there was not a Tibetan name specifically for the borders of the prefecture and county carved from the traditional Tibetan area of Kham, because the Chinese government created those borders, not the Tibetan people.
 * As I further touched on in the talk pages, if you are concerned that this move to the English common name may unintentionally create bias for the Chinese government, then your concerns should extend to Dêqên, the name chosen by a Chinese governor and the spelling of which is the one used by the Chinese government (Tibetan pinyin).
 * So either way Tibetans have not been consulted, and either name will be the past decision of the Chinese government. For this reason, I only looked towards Wikipedia policies when I came to the conclusion that a move was even necessary. The sources given do not use the Tibetan pinyin spelling of Dêqên for either the county or prefecture, and rarely did the few reliable sources I could find (in English). I took great care in not skewing my research either, removing the circumflex accent from results (i.e. Deqen), yet still nothing.
 * I am sure that, like yourself, the previous move for the prefecture and the original title decision for the county was based on the goodwill idea of preserving Tibetan names. However, as I made sure to explain in-depth, they were not the best policy-based decisions, and even if we ignore all Wikipedia policy and decide solely on our goodwill towards Tibetans, what we seek to do is not accomplished. Instead of preserving a Tibetan name carried into English, the editors who chose Dêqên coined a new English transliteration of a Chinese-created name. Yue 🌙 21:59, 8 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Also, it should be evident that my goal in the subsequent edits was not to prioritise Mandarin (Standard Chinese) transliterations, because if it was I would not have bothered cleaning up the formatting and adding a section on the Tibetan name's etymology. I only care about site policy and accessibility for readers, and regarding the latter I feel strongly about the relevancy of WP:COMMONNAME. Yue 🌙 22:04, 8 November 2023 (UTC)

Parser
Hi -- I noticed your post on Trappist's talk page about a parser, and have a couple of thoughts about how it might be useful. From what you say it sounds like it's a template parser, meaning that it doesn't generate any internal structure for text between templates. Is that correct? The suggestions below are mostly for something that can do at least a crude parse of an article -- identifying the text blocks between templates, and finding &lt;ref&gt; tags and their contents.

See this discussion about switching a page away from list-defined references and the use of the R template. To make the change Piotr requested I wrote a simple parser in Python for the wikitext, and then wrote an output routine to take the parsed representation and print it in named reference format without the list definition. A more general capability -- to take an article written in a certain citation style and change it to another style -- might be of interest to some people. Mostly people want to do things like convert short form refs to sfn, and there would be a certain amount of guesswork in matching up the short form names such as "Smith (2011), p. 123" with the cited sources.

I do some source reviewing at FAC, and I've been planning to write a parser for that as well to help spot some inconsistencies. For example, if an article cites a dozen books, it should either cite the publisher location for all or none of them. Having a parsed tree of citation templates would allow questions like "are all book citations consistent in their use of locations?" Other possibilities: inconsistent use of ISBNs, use of "p." for multiple pages or "pp." for single pages, domain names used as website titles. A few of the errors might even be auto-correctable. I had planned to simply scan the article for the cite templates and parse those, but if you already have them in a parse tree that would simplify things.

Does any of this sound possible? Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 21:43, 13 February 2024 (UTC)


 * @Mike Christie Hi Mike, I'll respond to the specifics in more detail a bit later when I have more time, but I just wanted to point out that it does generate an internal structure for the whole of the input text, which is done by using various classes of node. The most relevant of these is of course, but there's also   (3 braces),   (parser tag blocks, e.g.   would be one node), and the generic  . Any of these can be nested inside each other arbitrarily, and the parser (run from wikt:Module:parser) uses recursive iteration to traverse the tree. The internal structure of each type of node is pretty different, but nodes don't need to know or care about other nodes, since the recursive iterator simply calls the applicable   method for each node as it encounters it. This is a highly flexible model, and the intention is for Module:parser to be used for parsing code, as here, as well as in the complex linguistic parsing we do at Wiktionary for things like pronunciation modules. Does that sound like it fits what you need? If you're interested, there's also the much more complex wikt:Module:User:Theknightwho/wikitext parser which is designed for things like internal/external links, headers, HTML etc. It's not finished yet, though.
 * Theknightwho (talk) 22:54, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
 * The recursive node structure is what I ended up creating for the one I wrote; I've never written a parser before so it took me a couple of passes before I realized that was the most logical data structure. I think most of the uses I'm thinking of could be divided into 1) parse; 2) optionally analyze/transform; and 3) render.  Once an article is parsed, the data structure could be passed to code that renders it with a different citation style, or part of the structure such as the citation templates could be analyzed for particular errors or inconsistencies.  An attempt to convert hand-written citations to templates, for example, would identify a sources section, find bulleted citations, classify them as plain text or links or templates, and use clues such as ISBNs to determine whether they were books, journals, web pages, or something else.  The advantage of having a parser as a front end for this is that it eliminates the need for a user to point the code at part of the article.  I should add I have no knowledge of Lua and wouldn't be able to write this code myself, unless I end up learning it -- the crude parser I wrote is in Python, which I'm still getting familiar with. Mike Christie (talk - contribs -  library) 02:48, 14 February 2024 (UTC)
 * @Mike Christie Yes, doing things in those three stages makes the most sense, and in fact there is the option to simply return the raw node tree from the parser as well, or to write other kinds of iterators to help in processing the data. The template iterator was written to replace a simpler version on Wiktionary which was already in use, but the module is capable of much more.
 * Given that you've mentioned things like bulleted lists and links, I should probably point out that (from the point of view of a Lua module), everything that the native parser does can be divided into (1) things done before Lua and (2) things done after Lua. Everything that the template parser does is purely focused on what happens before Lua, which means templates, parser function tags (e.g. ref tags), HTML comments, other templates and so on. In other words, everything that you could never pass into Lua as raw code, because it will always have been processed first. However, you can view those things if you process the raw page contents. On the other hand, links and formatting (e.g. bulleted lists) are processed after Lua, which is actually what wikt:Module:User:Theknightwho/wikitext parser is designed for. There are a lot more moving parts, and wiki markup is actually extremely complicated when you're trying to generalise it. However, you should never process (e.g.) templates and links at the same time, because you don't know if those templates will affect the links once they've been expanded.
 * For anything involving links, I suspect you'll need to wait until that parser's in a ready state (which may be a few months), because determining what is and isn't a valid link is really complicated. However, things like lists are usually simple enough to parse with Lua's string library. Theknightwho (talk) 02:14, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
