toggle ref check

Hello, just a note to say that User:Lingzhi2/reviewsourcecheck has been update to add the option to toggle it on or off.

The installed script will add a tab to the drop-down tab at the top, located between the 'watchlist star' and the search box (using the vector.js skin). The tab toggles between "Hide ref check" and "Show ref check" with displaying the errors as the default option. Please do drop me a line if you have any problems or suggestions. Tks. ♦ Lingzhi2 (talk) 15:18, 2 February 2019 (UTC)

• Sorry to bother you again. After the addition of a toggle option in the tab atop the page, one editor requested a revised version in which the toggle link appears in the "Tools" section of the page's left sidebar. So now there are two versions of this tool. If you prefer the links in the Toolbar section on the side, the slightly altered script is named User:Lingzhi2/reviewsourcecheck-sb.js (just add "-sb" before the ".js"). Finally, both versions should now also store the page state (whether reference errors/warnings are "hidden" or "shown"). The state persists between page loads and between the browser closing and reopening (unless cleared by the user, for example by deleting data in your browser's cache etc.). Huge thanks to User:Evad37 for much coding help. If you have any questions or problems, please drop me a line. Thanks again. ♦ Lingzhi2 (talk) 08:26, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

Sabana Grande, Caracas

Dear Sir or Madam,

I opened a peer review request. The user did not edit the article, but deleted 110,000 characters. What is the name of that? I contacted the people that previously edited the Sabana Grande (Caracas) article. I rarely edit Wikipedia these days because I am very busy with my PhD application and work. I had no time to send personalized messages.

He could have ping me before deleting a whole article, but he deleted it instead. Nevermind.

@QuinteroP: Sending messages to 14 different users is generally not appropriate regardless. The article's talk page is the appropriate place to discuss such matters, not many other user's talk pages.

People delete and add content all the time, and it's not their responsibility to personally tell you about it (see also: WP:OWN). If you disagree, you can always revert. But immediately assuming bad faith and calling an edit 'vandalism' is overly aggressive, especially when it's sent to 14 different user's talk pages. Instead, if you have a problem, you can always seek dispute resolution, but allow the natural bold, revert, discuss cycle to run its course first.

I would also discourage you from deleting warnings from your talk page. E to the Pi times i (talk | contribs) 19:22, 13 March 2019 (UTC)

@E to the Pi times i: Okay. Good to know. I am not a frequent user of Wikipedia/Wikimedia. Thanks for the info. QuinteroP (talk) 19:29, 13 March 2019 (UTC)

Prostitution in India

Hi. I notice you added an anchor to the section heading "Immoral Traffic (Prevention) Act". When wikitext is parsed to html a span with an id of the same name as the heading is added as an anchor to the heading. It's not necessary to add a second span.
