Hausa article wanted: Lagos

edit

Sorry to bother you with another one... there isn't yet a Hausa article on Lagos. Is it okay if you make a stub on that? WhisperToMe (talk) 05:55, 1 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

Sure, that's okay. Just keep updating the list I'll do my best to clear them with time. And maybe try ranking them on a scale of relevance/importance too. Regards—M@sssly 11:07, 1 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

Inter-language kinks in articles

edit

Why is it ever necessary to remove an inter-language link from a Wikipedia page, per here and here —M@sssly 13:30, 14 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

Because unlike Wikidata, inter-language links will need to be updated manually and thus are a constant maintenance task that can be gotten rid of. Huon (talk) 13:53, 14 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

Lose of text formatting (spacing and tabs) when I post to public mailing lists on lists.wikimedia.org

edit

Why do I lose my text formatting (spacing and tabs) when I post to public mailing lists on lists.wikimedia.org even though I had originally type it perfectly in in my email before I sent it? How can I prevent that from happening? —M@sssly 18:00, 30 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

That's not a question on Wikipedia, and you'd have much better chances to get a helpful answer if you contact one of the mailing list admins, say via mailman lists.wikimedia.org. Personally I'd assume your emails use some esoteric formatting or encoding not supported by the mailing list. Try sending them as plain text? Huon (talk) 18:37, 30 May 2015 (UTC)Reply
