Question about Template:Ice Hockey Stats
I've been looking at a couple of PHF player pages, and I see the "External Links" section on some of 'em that include the template above. For example: Audra Morrison. I've read the documentation for the template, and I see that it uses some information from Wikidata. I went and found Audra's Wikidata page, and it makes sense how the template makes use of the particular Wikidata items to create the external links to (e.g.) EliteProspects. The part that I can't figure out is how the Audra Morrison Wikipedia page knows that it links to that Wikidata page to look up those particular Wikidata properties. I don't see anything on her Wikipedia page source that makes that connection. Do you know how that magic happens? TIA. --MikeVitale 20:50, 2 February 2022 (UTC)
- @MikeVitale: Sorry for the slow reply. It works based on interwiki links to wikidata. Since that wikidata page is linked it knows to grab the information off that page on wikidata. If you look on that wikidata page on the right side it lists all the language wikis articles it is linked too. Your example only appears to be English. But if it was an article with multiple langauges you would also see them listed down the left side of the English page here. -DJSasso (talk) 13:58, 17 February 2022 (UTC)
Thank you bunches! No worries about the slow reply…I’m just happy to better understand how this works! Thanks again. MikeVitale 17:29, 17 February 2022 (UTC)
WP:AFC Helper News
Hello! I wanted to drop a quick note for all of our AFC participants; nothing huge and fancy like a newsletter, but a few points of interest.
- AFCH will now show live previews of the comment to be left on a decline.
- The template {{db-afc-move}} has been created - this template is similar to {{db-move}} when there is a redirect in the way of an acceptance, but specifically tells the patrolling admin to let you (the draft reviewer) take care of the actual move.
Short and sweet, but there's always more to discuss at WT:AFC. Stop on by, maybe review a draft on the way? Whether you're one of our top reviewers, or haven't reviewed in a while, I want to thank you for helping out in the past and in the future.

Date format on Mats Sundin
Hello Djsasso! Would you be so kind as to help me explain to an IP how WP:DATERET works? The person has consistantly changed dates to mdy-format on Mats Sundin over the last few days, and I don't want to break the 3RR. I've written and explained my actions on the IP's talk page, but no response as of yet. Regards QubeCube (talk) 21:18, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
