List of gender identity discussions.

Regarding Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Gender_identity/Discussions, you created it as a subpage from the list at Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Gender identity, but it was never transcluded, so we ended up with two lists that diverged (though both are only updated intermittently at best.) I've reconciled their displayed content for now but I'm unsure what to do from there, so I thought I would drop you a message; obviously we shouldn't have both, but I'm unsure if you meant to have it transcluded eventually or what. Note that they have also diverged substantially in their formatting somehow. --Aquillion (talk) 08:26, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

TheWikiWizard-June 2021

Hello, MJL! Here is the June 2021 issue of TheWikiWizard.

Wikipedia News

  • The IRC channels used for Wikipedia have changed, you can read more on it here. While TWW was aware of this in the last issue, we decided to wait and publish this in this issue, when the issue is not as new any more, and more information has been developed.
  • There was quick interruption in editing on Wikipedia, that was to test server switching should an emergency happen, more details can be found here.

Humour

This section was written by CanadianOtaku --つがる Talk to つがる:) 🍁
  • Internet Explorer still thinks freenode is the best IRC service!
  • It has been proven that editing the article Cheese while eating Cheese is considered a WP:COI.
  • This joke has been donated to us from aliens, hopefully they learned UTF-8: £

Editor's Notes

  • Thanks for your patience as we experienced delays in publishing this issue.

We enter the fourth round with scores reset to zero; any content promoted after the end of round 3 but before the start of round 4 can be claimed in round 4. Please also remember that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them (one contestant in round 3 lost out because of this). When doing GARs, please make sure that you check that all the GA criteria are fully met.

If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article nominations, a featured process, or anything else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed (remember to remove your listing when no longer required). Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email.

Can I suggest you get a bot to do it, rather than manually edit what is probably going to be thousands of templates? You can list the categories at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Working. Cheers, Number 57 19:42, 19 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
