Suggestion for required changes for the pages conflicting with Interwiki Wikidata

Hi @Jon Harald Søby. Greetings & Thanks once again for the consistent supports being provided by you to Angika Wikipedia.

As desired, I have suggested the following required changes for the pages conflicting with Wikidata. https://anp.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=%E0%A4%AF%E0%A5%82%E0%A4%9C%E0%A4%B0:Jon_Harald_S%C3%B8by/Interwiki_issues&oldid=15742

Could the Gadget for Interwiki with functionality to add and display interlanguage links from Wikidata be provided to me? This will enable me to resolve the issue as and when required in minimum time frame. This will also be useful for providing interwiki link for newly created pages. Thanks. Angpradesh (वार्ता) ०९:३७, २४ मार्च २०२३ (IST)

@Angpradesh: Great, thank you! I will go through the list and fix the Wikidata items accordingly.

The gadget is specific to the Wikimedia Incubator due to its unique situation wrt. Wikidata. For a fully-fledged Wikipedia like this, the standard mechanisms should suffice. You will add interwiki links much in the same way you did on the Incubator, namely by using the "अंतरभाषा कड़ियाँ जोड़ें" link in the toolbar. No template needs to be added to any pages, because the Wikidata connection is automatic for official projects. Jon Harald Søby (वार्ता) १८:३६, २४ मार्च २०२३ (IST)

How to delete Article page with 'English Heading'

Greetings @Jon Harald Søby !

• A page with English Heading has been erroneously created by me when I was just trying to check the performance of the translation tool for translating the Content from English Wikipedia into Angika Wikipedia. I had requested to Content Translation Team on Media Wiki to add this, and it was added today only.

How can I delete it please?

• Meanwhile I must thank you for adding necessary codes in to Metacaxia template.

• Reply tab on User Talk page is not functioning properly, it reverts back into error message.

Angpradesh (वार्ता) २१:०८, २७ मार्च २०२३ (IST)

@Angpradesh: The reply function not working is one of the "childhood problems" for a new wiki. It should be solved "by itself", but I am a little surprised it has taken this long.

As for deletion: You should start a discussion/vote for administratorship in a village pump-style page (maybe विकिपीडिया:सामुदायिक पोर्टल?). After about 1 week with some support from other community members, you (and hopefully more people) can become administrators.

In any case, you should create a Template:Delete (feel free to name it in Angika instead of English, obviously, but the English name should be available as a redirect) that anyone can use to mark articles that should be deleted. Then either global administrators or local administrators here can delete those pages when required.

The article (Kharghar) being saved with JSON gibberish is a technical problem; I strongly suspect it actually has the same root cause as for why the reply tool is not working. I have posted a task about it in Phabricator, after performing my own test with the article Skiptvet; you can follow it here if you are interested: phab:T333238. Jon Harald Søby (वार्ता) ०२:४९, २८ मार्च २०२३ (IST)

@Angpradesh: The technical issue that causes these things should be solved now. The reply tool works as it should, and visual editor and the Content Translation tool should also work (I haven't tested those, though, but those problems had the same underlying cause).

@Jon Harald Søby: Thank you so much. Testing the Reply from Chrome Angpradesh (वार्ता) १५:०१, ३० मार्च २०२३ (IST)

@Jon Harald Søby: Thank you so much. Testing the Reply from Mozilla Angpradesh (वार्ता) १५:०३, ३० मार्च २०२३ (IST)

@Jon Harald Søby: Thank you so much. Testing the Reply from Microsoft Edge. Angpradesh (वार्ता) १५:१८, ३० मार्च २०२३ (IST)

@Jon Harald Søby Thank you so much.

My Observations are as below;

(i) Visual Editor is still not working. Visual Editor Link and Edit Source links are being shown under the Dropdown menu of Edit. Like English Wikipedia, it should be kept at same level and not under dropdown. Visual Editor Tab appears to be inactive.

(ii) The Reply tool is working now.(Tested on Chrome, Mozilla, MS Edge)

(iii) The Content Translation tool is also working fine. (Tested on the same page previously reported).

Angpradesh (वार्ता) १६:४६, ३० मार्च २०२३ (IST)

@Angpradesh: Hmm, I'm not sure what you mean by dropdown? Even when I'm not logged in, I have two edit tabs – one says "Edit", and the other "Edit source". The "Edit" one goes to the visual editor. Would you be able to show me a screenshot? You could upload it to Phabricator (small button in the top corner here), for instance.

In any case, actually editing with the visual editor works, I just tested on User:Jon Harald Søby/Test. Jon Harald Søby (वार्ता) १६:५७, ३० मार्च २०२३ (IST)

@Jon Harald Søby

In logged in condition only one Tab is visible i.e Edit (https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/F36934182).

Also, in logged in condition Visual Edit is Inactive and Edit Source is default one. (https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/F36934194).

Though in not logged in condition it is working fine.

@Angpradesh: Hmm, I don't know why it appears as gray for you. Do you have any global preferences enabled? For me it looks the way I described even when logged in, and also with my test account. Jon Harald Søby (वार्ता) १८:५३, ३० मार्च २०२३ (IST)

@Jon Harald Søby. Yes, you are correct. It was due to enabled global preference for Temporarily disable the visual editor while it is in beta. This issue has been resolved. Thanks so much. Angpradesh (वार्ता) १९:१४, ३० मार्च २०२३ (IST)

Excellent, good to hear! Jon Harald Søby (वार्ता) १९:२३, ३० मार्च २०२३ (IST)

Request for Adminship Rights

Greetings @Jon Harald Søby ! As suggested by you during last communication, I have requested for adminship rights at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Steward_requests/Permissions#Angpradesh@anp.wikipedia . I look forward to receive immense help of yours further in aligning myself and my community members towards maintaining and developing Angika Wikipedia further. Thanks & regards. Angpradesh (वार्ता) ०१:२४, २२ अप्रैल २०२३ (IST)

@Angpradesh: Excellent! I would also suggest that some more community members also become administrators, it's a good idea to have several. And adminship shouldn't be seen as a big deal, all it does is give access to some more tools (like blocking, deletion, etc.). The more the merrier, I say. :-) Jon Harald Søby (वार्ता) ०१:४३, २२ अप्रैल २०२३ (IST)

@Jon Harald Søby: Yes, sure. I am encouraging the fellow members of Angika Wikipedia community to become administrators.I have requested them to come forward to ensure their active participations and contributions and to become admins. I hope you will see the results very soon. Thanks & regards. Angpradesh (वार्ता) १२:२१, २२ अप्रैल २०२३ (IST)
