Disputes about Windows 10 version history edit
Hi. I noticed in this article's talk pages archives 1 and 2 that the most discussed issue (involving you) was about dividing the page into multiple subpages, which eventually ended did happen, except for the latest version. Recently, a version had ran out of support and, thus, I decided to copy content from this section to windows 10 version 21H1. Unfortunately, they got undone by a couple of users. And since I'm an IP user, I have no rights to edit protected pages. I have dropped my complaints here and here but they took no lucid action. Is it 🆗 if you find out what the heck in the world could be a mistake here? If necessary, take it to other administrators for in-depth review. Many thanks in advance.197.238.105.100 (talk) 17:00, 14 December 2022 (UTC)

Script bugs now edit
Hello, with the new desktop formatting on Wikipedia, the "My Links" script now shows very buggy on the Watchlist page and possibly others. Can this be fixed somehow? ɱ (talk) 21:15, 20 January 2023 (UTC)
- @Ɱ Hi, yes. I am aware that there were design changes to Vector that broke my scripts. I have not gotten to fixing them yet but I do hope to get to it soon. Namely the way I add a new portlet is very very bodgy. Aasim - Herrscher of Wikis ❄️ 11:00, 21 January 2023 (UTC)
dark mode edit
Regarding this comment: using a CSS media query is good for selecting the user's preferences from the OS or browser settings. However there are cases where the user wants to be able to toggle between a light mode and dark mode, either independently from the global settings or in a more convenient manner. It could be related to the time of day, or particularly on a site with user-generated content, some content might not render well in one mode. A little more infrastructure, such as a CSS class applied to the html element, is needed to handle this. isaacl (talk) 17:58, 25 January 2023 (UTC)
- Hi, yes. The CSS media query would work for default settings and new users. I think as MediaWiki moves towards PWA and similar (like YouTube and Google and Facebook and Reddit), more and more personalization and customization options will become available to logged out users. For now, the CSS media query is just a bare minimum. Aasim - Herrscher of Wikis ❄️ 20:15, 25 January 2023 (UTC)
- As I mentioned, it's always a choice of tradeoffs. If editors don't mind the layout changing after the page initially renders (and for dark/light modes, that can mean the opposite choice displaying first), then more customization can be done after initial page load on the client side. isaacl (talk) 22:22, 25 January 2023 (UTC)

Editing news 2023 #1 edit
Read this in another language • Subscription list for this multilingual newsletter
This newsletter includes two key updates about the Editing team's work:
- The Editing team will finish adding new features to the Talk pages project and deploy it.
- They are beginning a new project, Edit check.
Talk pages project
The Editing team is nearly finished with this first phase of the Talk pages project. Nearly all new features are available now in the Beta Feature for Discussion tools.
It will show information about how active a discussion is, such as the date of the most recent comment. There will soon be a new "Add topic" button. You will be able to turn them off at Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-editing-discussion. Please tell them what you think.
An A/B test for Discussion tools on the mobile site has finished. Editors were more successful with Discussion tools. The Editing team is enabling these features for all editors on the mobile site.
New Project: Edit Check
The Editing team is beginning a project to help new editors of Wikipedia. It will help people identify some problems before they click "Publish changes". The first tool will encourage people to add references when they add new content. Please watch that page for more information. You can join a conference call on 3 March 2023 to learn more.

MARCH 2023 edit
What was wrong with my edit on TATA GROUP it was according to verified sources and was to make it easier for everyone to see it. Kindly Revert it back on my edit or contact me and tell reason for that act. Putinstalin (talk) 21:56, 18 March 2023 (UTC)
- @Putinstalin Hi, generally the infobox is used for a quick summary of the topic; thus we should not include every single item in an infobox if the list will get very long. We generally have dedicated list pages to help consolidate information to avoid the main article getting very long. I hope you understand! Aasim - Herrscher of Wikis ❄️ 22:06, 18 March 2023 (UTC)

April 2023 edit
Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit(s) you made to Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/April Fools' Day 2023, did not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use your sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. 1 April or not, your creation of the page was disruptive; as was the nomination of Template:Citation needed (not to mention that WP:TFDHOW step I was ignored); and your revert of my close made it triply disruptive. Now please explain why I should not apply WP:CSD#G3. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 18:51, 1 April 2023 (UTC)
- Redrose64 - If I am not mistaken, there is consensus back in 2021 to have April Fools' Day nominations separate from the serious nominations to avoid wasting time and resources. The other two steps for WP:TFDHOW (I and III) would be a serious waste of time for editors and would negatively affect users of that template. There are specific instructions for April Fools' day nominations to avoid unnecessarily wasting the time of editors and administrators at WP:FOOLS. I do not condone vandalism or other disruptive edits of other unrelated pages which is why I have reverted - twice - pranks that might affect readers, and even removed WP:COPYVIO that occurred on one joke XfD. I am willing to discuss if this page actually breaks any scripts or user processes then we can move this somewhere where this would not cause disruption. I hope you understand. We do not want to affect regular business on XfD, that is why this page exists. Aasim - Herrscher of Wikis ❄️ 19:50, 1 April 2023 (UTC)
