Your bot, in importing coordinates from Wikidata (which I think is a bad idea in the first place), is completely messing up by adding malformatted {{coord}} templates, as here. Please stop the bot at least until it's able to properly format the template. Deor (talk) 17:19, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Deor: Hi. I had already stopped the bot, but due to other reason. Before filing the approval request for the bot, I had gone through coord template's documentation. Looks like I missed something? Would you kindly let me know all the formats of the coords template, or where can I find it? It would be appreciated a lot. —usernamekiran (talk)17:27, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Well, the bot was adding templates in the form {{Coord|7°32'24"S|104°34'48"E|display=inline,title}} when the proper format would be {{Coord|7|32|24|S|104|34|48|E|display=inline,title}}. Of course, it was also omitting useful parameters such as "type" and "region", but I suppose there's no way to program a bot to handle those. In addition, it seems to have been adding coords twice, as here, requiring someone to delete the duplicate infobox parameter.
The business of indiscriminately importing coordinates from Wikidata has been discussed at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Geographical coordinates and elsewhere, and there has never been any consensus to do so. Whether you can get the bot to operate properly seems less important than whether this task should be undertaken at all. I think you would need to get consensus for that, either at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Geographical coordinates or at some more general forum. Deor (talk) 18:04, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Deor: Thanks. The task was requested at WP:BOTREQ. It seemed non-controversial, and assumed it had consensus. The duplicated addition was the reason I stopped the bot. I will first fix the format, then initiate a discussion at WikiProject Geographical coordinates. Thanks again, —usernamekiran (talk)18:11, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@MSGJ: Hi, thanks for the message. The issue was rectified, and the run has finished, apologies for the trouble/inconvenience though. —usernamekiran (talk)16:38, 10 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Gonnym: thanks for letting me know. It is indeed unexpected/strange behaviour. I am currently out of town, I will check the edits in 2-3 days from now. —usernamekiran (talk)10:39, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hey Sensei, I want to edit a page for my company, I have to update it with relevent information, Can I use the company website for citation and references? and what images should I use? --Ateeb Ali Syed (talk) 14:45, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
How do I embed links into words? I know how to edit sentences and add sentences, but I am not sure how to add links in order to redirect people to other wikipedia pages --OinkerDaPig (talk) 00:38, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Rockstargroup: Hi. Generally, the username change process is described at WP:CHU. But given that you have total of three edits, having a clean start is a better way. Simply log out of your current account, wait for a 2-3 days (a week is preferred), then create a new account with preferred username, and never log back to "Rockstargroup" account. Having multiple accounts is generally not a good idea, see WP:Socking. —usernamekiran (talk)16:18, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Theflyingpadres: Hi. In case you own the photo/copyrights, then the photo goes to commons, not wikipedia. Wikipedia hosts only non-free/copyrighted photos under certain conditions. Otherwise, any kind of copyrighted photos are not allowed on wikipedia, nor on commons. I have posted a few links to your talkpage regarding image policies as well. —usernamekiran (talk)17:23, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello :>
I wanted to know what should I name the page when making a userbox on Wikipedia, I'm familiar with making the Userboxs itself on the fandom shipping wiki and on there when creating a new page you put it as template:Userbox/*insert name* as the title name so that way it's not a main page. So I wanted to ask if that's the same here or something similar to that when creating the page for userboxes. --Una Sama (talk) 16:36, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Una Sama: the title of the userbox should convey the idea about the topic of the userbox. Regarding the exact location/address of the userbox, unlike fandom, English Wikipedia prefers the userboxes in user-space, it can be either in your userspace, or in "User:UBX/*insert name*". eg: User:Johnl1479/Userbox/*nix, User:Jor.langneh/Linux Mint these two are in creator's own userspace, - or User:UBX/OpenBSD, which is a shared userspace. —usernamekiran (talk)17:56, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@HypeBoy: Hello. Thanks for bringing the issues to my notice. I was aware of that would happen because of the way you had denied the bot, and I was going to fix it soon. Regarding the repeated messages: the bot runs every night at 03:03, UTC. During every run, it was looking for KiranBOTmsgID:1253441495 on your talkpage, as part of the original message. The msg ID is unique to each message. As you were removing the message along with msg ID, the bot was thinking the message was never delivered, hence it was re-adding that message. I have fixed both these issues now, and no-one should receive duplicated messages. —usernamekiran (talk)17:32, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@HypeBoy: no. you denied it correctly, but my bot was looking for a few other templates, and not the one you had inserted. I have fixed the issue now - now it looks for all variants. In short, you do not have to make any changes, now all the variants of "nobots" have been covered. —usernamekiran (talk)18:31, 3 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for working on the AMP links task - I really appreciate it! Sorry for not following up with it after I filed the request; I've been dealing with some personal issues that have taken up most of my time. Cheers!
