==[[User:Dream Focus]]==
Since you seem to be a member of the Article Rescue Squadron. I'd like to introduce you this user Dream Focus if you haven't heard of him already. He's one of those that takes saving articles really seriously. [[User:Jhenderson777|Jhenderson777]] ([[User talk:Jhenderson777|talk]]) 18:50, 11 August 2010 (UTC)
:Thanks, though I would not contact him unless he showed interest in the article already. As you probably already know, according to [[Wikipedia:Canvassing]], contacting editors for the sake of voting is considered disruptive. Anyhow, I've changed my vote for the article we've been working on, so now there is consensus for merging. At least it seems our work won't go to complete waste. —[[User:Codehydro|<
::I know about [[WP:Canvassing]]. I wasn't really introducing him for that particular article. Because I figured you try to help to save other articles too. I figure it's just good to share some similarities and know a few of your squadron members who work together on the same thing. [[User:Jhenderson777|Jhenderson777]] ([[User talk:Jhenderson777|talk]]) 00:54, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

Nice work on the article. With some more content, you can go for DYK. --[[User:Ragib|Ragib]] ([[User talk:Ragib|talk]]) 00:40, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
:Thanks, I hadn't thought about doing that, though I may have to wait a little while on it as I am working on several other articles at the same time. Maybe I'll spam the DYK with 4 of my articles at the same time :) —[[User:Codehydro|<
I expanded the article slightly, though mostly on the notes side. It seems that sources from just 5 years ago are showing signs of being outdated since the arrival of the Qawmi Education Board at that time greatly changed things around. Would you take a look at the notes I made on the [[Qawmi]] article? I'd like to know what you think. By the way, I just finished major expansion on [[sleep state misperception]] to get it promoted to DYK ;) (also, I am not putting the talkback template on your talk because you seem to be watching my talk already after reading the section below) —[[User:Codehydro|<
:I added the number of Madrasahs at different levels under the board. But there seems to be a misprint in the newspaper (ref: dstar1), since it mentions sanaria ammah level twice - once as higher secondary(?) and again as secondary. Can you please check the numbers from the newspaper and other sources? 4 million is a huge number of students for any education system, but it makes sense, since the poorest of the poor who can't afford to send their children to regular schools, usually send them to these local religious schools. --[[User:Ragib|Ragib]] ([[User talk:Ragib|talk]]) 05:24, 25 August 2010 (UTC)
::Oh, great idea! I didn't really understand what those numbers meant when I first read it until I saw your list. I reorganized it into a table and found a better source. I think the University of Oxford is much more reliable than dstar :) And I would have never guessed that "Befaqul Mudarressin" is the same as "Wafaq ul Madaris"... I thought they were two separate things at first, but noticed surprising similarities in the numbers of schools at each level and then slowly tried to pronounce them with my American tongue. Anyhow, now that I know this alternate name, it increases my options for research. *sigh* Why do I make things harder on myself by writing about subjects for which I speak not the language? :P —[[User:Codehydro|<
::: The more I look at it, the more I think the "Network of Schools" section in [[Al-Jamiatul Ahlia Darul Ulum Moinul Islam]] is the Qawmi ed board and that the six-levels described in the Boro Madrasah article are the same six levels described in the [[Qawmi]] table. If that's the case, then the "beyond post graduate level" may actually not be a doctoral level but is rather the Tahfeezul Quran level. What do you think? —[[User:Codehydro|<
:::Bengali alphabet does not have any character for the Arabic character "wao", which sounds somewhere between "Wa" and "Va". So, in Bengali people use either ওয়া (Wa) or বা (Ba or Be) to transliterate this arabic sound. This explains why you've seen both "Wafaq ul" and "Befaqul" there. --[[User:Ragib|Ragib]] ([[User talk:Ragib|talk]]) 21:42, 25 August 2010 (UTC)

Line 81:
Hi Codehydro! Any idea what's behind the IP editor (119... and 202...) who keeps on introducing the same unsourced "history" essay? The material that's being introduced could make good copy with a bit of editing, but the IP editor seems to be unwilling or unable to cite any sources. Since the history of the madrassah spans over 100 years he/she must surely be using some reference material. I'd like to assume good faith but the editors determination not to enter into discussion has left me baffled. -- [[User:Timberframe|Timberframe]] ([[User talk:Timberframe|talk]]) 17:52, 24 August 2010 (UTC)
* The IP is most likely associated with [[User talk:Bakrbinaziz]] whose account had been blocked for his stubborn editing. He seems to support the school as a former/current student if not work for the school, but that's my guess. I don't think the guy is necessarily bad, though apparently unable to understand Wikipedia policies. Moreover, I suspect his background and formal training seems to be faith-based (i.e. from single-source material like the Qu'ran or the school's homepage) rather than independent research based, thus he may lack the academic background for questioning primary sources and may lack the skill to look for information from outside sources. If my guess is correct, that could explain why he doesn't produce sources: he may simply not know how to search for them effectively. I could be wrong, but I am sympathetic with him despite my misgivings for his methods. Fortunately, he does seem to be using the article's [[Talk:Al-Jamiatul Ahlia Darul Ulum Moinul Islam|talk page]]. I've learned not really to bother posting on his user talk, because he hardly looks at it (plus his IP may change before he ever sees the you have new messages note). Anyhow, I agree that there could be a lot of good information from the history he posted, though it needs to be reworked from a NPoV and properly sourced. I plan to look at the copy he posted on the article talk to see if I can mine anything out of it in a few days. —[[User:Codehydro|<
The IPs are from [[Grameenphone]]'s wireless Internet, which Bakr uses. That's why his IP changes a lot from time to time. I have pending-changed the article to guard against such ip edits. But as CodeHydro says above, Bakr has started to use the article talk page (at least after being reverted several times). --[[User:Ragib|Ragib]] ([[User talk:Ragib|talk]]) 01:14, 25 August 2010 (UTC)

They were on the transformer's project page. I'm not canvassing... canvassing is going to random people. —[[User:Codehydro|<
:Read the policy page... What you're doing is unacceptable, and a failure to understand that is not going to let you get away with it. You can't approach a group, no matter who they are, and say "hey, go to ''x'' and vote ''y''. I notice you've also done it on user talk pages. Stop it, now.

::*Sorry, I admit it was poorly thought out. I simply intended to point out that "decide by centralized discussion" could be an option, but was sloppy in implementing it. It's a new idea, so give me a break. —[[User:Codehydro|<
What does "merge as per centralised discussion" even mean? People can already propose a merge (or just go ahead and do it) without the need for a "centralised discussion". In any case, merging only makes any sense when there is a target, which you haven't actually proposed... [[User:J Milburn|J Milburn]] ([[User talk:J Milburn|talk]]) 14:34, 31 August 2010 (UTC)
*Because there are just so many articles, the complexity may make it unrealistic for the destination to be decided before the first AfD. —[[User:Codehydro|<
**They don't all have to be merged to the same place... Again, it makes little sense to look at these together. The discussions are working fine independently. One of the strengths of AfD is that it has some closure- stuff actually gets dealt with. Your ideas concerning these nominations seem to be to leave them for even longer before anything actually happens.

==Transformers==
From what I can see. Those voters love picking on those Transformers related articles. I would love to help but there seems to be a work together cliche of delete, delete, delete. I did mention I'd rather them be merged instead of deleted but you know... [[User:Jhenderson777|<span style="border:1px solid blue;padding:1px:color:blue">Jhenderson</span>]]<sup>'''[[User talk:Jhenderson777| <span style="color:red;">7</span><span style="color:blue;">7</span><span style="color:aqua;">7</span>]]'''</sup> 17:35, 2 September 2010 (UTC)
:My main point of contention is that it's all happening too fast. DGG suggested that somebody could ask for a close of non-consensus for all the articles with a promise to renominate simply because it's unfair to attack them all at the same time... I would suggest that myself but I can't make that promise as I will be unavailable to do so... nonetheless, the transformers fiasco has inspired a new policy proposal idea at the village pump: [[WP:AFDPP]]. What do you think? —[[User:Codehydro|<
::Looks good. I hope it works. I am not the one who is always against AFD's. But I think I am getting tired of hearing that's not perfectly sourced or it doesn't have sources to prove that it's notable so it must not be. It makes Wikipedia feel less like an encyclopedia of freedom. I think it's better to have a chance to expand Wikipedia then to keep AFDing every article that's not perfect for Wikipedia guidelines. It's just beginning articles. Tag it as Start Class or tag to improve the article or something. I wish somebody was good at finding sources in here because I most certainly am not. That is always the most hardest thing in Wikipedia. That's why [[Wikia]] is better in fictional information. They don't force things on you. You have your own freedom as long as it's constructive to it's topic.

:Thank you again. Sometimes I have difficulty understanding these discussions and the proper way to go about them. The discussion on this subject was closed so quickly I had only just realised that discussion was possible (I believe the whole disussion was over in a week). It also seems that this article comes up for deletion regularly. It is not linked to the main article it is a part of. Is linking and rewriting a way to prevent this cycle of deletion requests? The fact that there are two tags on the top of the page may suggest that somebody is using some sort of search tool to look for these tags and nominate that article for deletion. --[[User:JHvW|<

Hi! The redirect from [[Template:Infobox festival]] to [[Template:Infobox recurring event]] caused a number of transclusions to break – see e.g. the markup <nowiki>"[[File:" and "|150px]]"</nowiki> in [[Stratford Shakespeare Festival]]. Undoing the merge is probably not a good idea because this would break the transclusions that have been fixed in the meantime. Just to notify you to be careful with such things. I'll file a [[Wikipedia:Bot requests|request]] for a bot to fix this. Cheers, [[User:Anypodetos|ἀνυπόδητος]] ([[User talk:Anypodetos|talk]]) 08:49, 27 September 2010 (UTC)
:Oops, I thought I checked for such things; I actually tried to code the template so that it could accept parameters from both infobox festival and infobox recurring event without conflict, but I guess I missed one. Such mergers of independently developed templates can get quite complicated... What's trickier is that these bugs don't appear immediately since the MediaWiki software doesn't convert wiki-markup to html for an article until a new edit is made on the article itself. Thus, bugs in a template don't reveal themselves on the article even if you refresh the page since edits made on the template do not trigger MediaWiki to update the generated html file that's stored for each article that uses the template. In effect, the bug you saw in the Stratford Shakespeare Festival article was invisible until somebody else edited the page after the merger. Thanks for catching that one! —[[User:Codehydro|<

Hi there, I see you're a much more prolific contributor than I but I happen to be viewing the wiki on [[gold]] when I noticed a historical price chart that, at first glance, appeared to be very different from what my memory of gold prices told me. After viewing I noticed the scale was exponential rather than linear which struck me as unusual and perhaps less helpful to the average viewer, and also could present gold as a much more stable investment compared to actual values given the smoothness of the scale. For reference, the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gold#mediaviewer/File:Gold-nominal-constant-usd.svg chart on the gold wiki] and a typical [http://www.macrotrends.net/1333/gold-and-silver-prices-100-year-historical-chart 100 year chart] (both inflation adjusted)
I'm not trying to claim you have done anything improper, but I am curious as to why the scale is exponential rather than linear since price scales are typically linear, could you fill me in on what i'm missing here? thanks for your time. <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Tunafizzle|Tunafizzle]] ([[User talk:Tunafizzle|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Tunafizzle|contribs]]) 01:09, 27 September 2014 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
:* {{replyto|User:Tunafizzle}} Glad you asked! To answer, notice how [http://www.macrotrends.net/1333/gold-and-silver-prices-100-year-historical-chart your example] plots only adjusted prices whereas my chart also plots nominal (non-adjusted) prices in addition to the above. Though fine for plotting inflation-adjusted prices, a linear scale would be inappropriate for plotting nominal prices over any duration long enough for significant inflation. For example, given the thumbnail size of the chart as shown on [[Gold#Investment]], it would take a change of ~$18 to shift the line by a single pixel on a linear scale. Thus, even though the increase of $14.33 meant a dramatic 68 percent change in 1934, a linear scale may show no increase at all. Secondly, though you are right that a linear scale can be easier to comprehend, a logarithmic scale is more useful for comparing relative change. For example, a hypothetical $50 price drop looks deceptively the same whether you started with $100 or $1000, even though the loss suffered by an investor would be 10 times bigger in the former (50% vs. 5%); in contrast, on a log scale, an investment gain of 10% looks just a sharp whether the initial price were $1 or $10000. Of course, an alternative could be to plot adjusted prices on a linear scale and nominal ones on a separate scale, however, I think having two scales could cause even greater confusion than what you experienced. Does this answer your question? —[[User:Codehydro|<

(I'm not a huge tennis buff, but I think most majors are 128?) Provided they'd fit and it wouldn't look stupid, can it run 256, 512 or even 1024?

::*{{ping|J man708}}Given unlimited memory, the limit is the biggest integer that is power of 2 available in the Lua language, which I believe is 2^46 or about 70 trillion.

:I did that thinking that most brackets showed the winner's scores bolded in each individual leg, which apparently isn't the case. I think that the current set up is fine.

::Don't beat yourself up. It's on me for not updating the doc page, which does not talk about node functions nor anything about the +sum switch. Also, your confusion probably came from how individual legs are bolded when the final score box is not a sum of the previous boxes, such as in [[Module talk:RoundN/testcases/5]]. In tennis, it is the total number of sets won that determine who wins, not the sum of the scores. Or let's put it this way: let's say a round of tennis has 3 sets, and player A scored 99, 0, 0 for each set and player B scored 0, 1, 1; team B wins even though team A has a much higher sum. In your case, it really doesn't who won each leg since it's all about the sum of the score. In short, the bold intermediate legs only when winning that leg matters more than how many points were scored in that leg. —[[User:Codehydro|<

*{{ping|davidwr}} Thank you checking. The edit is fairly harmless though doesn't do anything either. Your addition of ";" after the last item in CSS is unnecessary because that symbol is defined as a separator; its sole purpose is to separate one declaration from the next and if there is no next declaration then it is unnecessary. Here's the [https://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/syndata.html#declaration documentation on how to use CSS declarations from W3C]--the organization which defines the CSS standards. Notice how in their example, they do not place a semi-colon after the final declaration. Adding an extra semi-colon at the end of a list only just slightly increases the size of the page by one byte each time it's done (and multiplied by the number of times this template is used). For example, your change would increase the download size of [[Module:Buffer/doc]] by about 300 bytes without any beneficial effect on the rendering of that page. That said, nowadays even a thousand bytes is rather trivial so thus your edit is harmless. —[[User:Codehydro|<

== Issue with [[module:RoundN]] ==
Hi, see the example below, a very basic bracket. Parameters used {{para|bold_winner|high}} and {{para|score-boxes|2+sum}}.
{{#invoke:RoundN|N4
|bold_winner=high
|score-boxes=2+sum
|Match 1|A|2|0|B|1|2
|Match 2|C|3|1|D|0|4
|Match 3|B|3|0|C|0|2
}}
Suppose this is according to the UEFA Champions League concept. Teams play each twice, once at home, once away. Team with the most goals in total over 2 matches proceeds. In case both teams tie on total goals, the team with the most away goals proceeds. In "match 1" and "match 3" the result is as expected. Team "B" is bolded. In "match 2" however, no team is bolded because of the 4 4 in the fourth column (third scorebox column). But team "C" should be bolded because they scored 1 away goal and team "D" 0.
Suppose the 8 boxes for a match are:
{| class="wikitable"
|T1||S11||S12||S13
|-
|T2||S21||S22||S23
|}
Now the code will be something like (this is not supposed to be LUA code):
<syntaxhighlight lang="text">
if S13 > S23
then
bold T1 line
elif S23 > S13
then
bold T2 line
fi
</syntaxhighlight>
Could it be changed to something like:
<syntaxhighlight lang="text">
if S13 > S23
then
bold T1 line
elif S23 > S13
then
bold T2 line
else
if S12 > S21
then
bold T1 line
elif S22 > S11
then
bold T2 line
fi
fi
</syntaxhighlight>
Of course, the above is somewhere in the code which handles "bold_winner" to be "high". If it would be "low" the "<" and ">" need to be swapped. Although it's not LUA code, I assume you get my drift. --[[User:Sb008|Sb008]] ([[User talk:Sb008|talk]]) 16:17, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
:*{{ping|Sb008}} Two issues about hard coding that suggestion into RoundN. First, is that non-UEFA tournaments may not have the same way of handling tiebreakers. Maybe somewhere would favor the home goals instead of away? Second, is that there's no way of knowing which round is the away round for which team; the numbers themselves don't say and, looking only at the module input, I could easily interpret the 2nd game of match 2 as Team D's away game, (and that team D got 4 away goals versus team C's 3 away goals, and so team D won). That said, my suggestion is to simply manually bold the name of winner manually with wikimarkup. The sum box won't be bolded, but the bold team name should be obvious enough (as well as advancement to the next round). Optionally you can throw in a ref note?
{{#invoke:RoundN|N4
|bold_winner=high
|score-boxes=2+sum
|Match 1|Team A|2|0|Team B|1|2
|Match 2|'''Team C'''<ref group="tiebreaker">Per UEFA rules, in the event of a tie, the team with more away goals wins. Team C scored 1 away versus team D's 0.</ref>|3|1|Team D|0|4
|Match 3|Team B|3|0|Team C|0|2
}}
<references group=tiebreaker/>
:Personally I think leaving the sum box unbolded is better since they're both 4's and that bolding the team name with wikimarkup is adequate. Let me know if my suggestion works for you. —[[User:Codehydro|<b style="color:#aaaaaa; font-family:Unicode; font-size:12pt;">Code</b>]][[User talk:Codehydro|<b style="color:#5577aa">Hydro</b>]] 15:18, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
:: Thx for replying. It's common practise to list the teams in accordance with the first leg. So, team "C" listed 1st and team "D" listed 2nd (for match 2) means "C" played the first leg at home. I don't know any format (which doesn't mean there isn't one) where in case of a tie, the team with the most home goals will proceed. It's away goals because it's considered harder to score an away goal than a home goal. And it's not just UEFA (actually FIFA) rules, it applies for handball as well [[2008–09 EHF Champions League#Qualification_Round]] (1st match listed, Kaunas 32 away goals and Brest only 27) and probably more sports. There aren't that many sports where they use a 2leg knockout system. But in regular leagues it's commmon. The ranking is in general based on: most points, best goal difference, most goals scored for '''all''' matches, hth points, hth goal difference, '''hth away goals'''. Using wikimarkup is only partly possible. I can only bold the teambox but not the sumbox. Of course, I can solve that too by not using {{para|bold_winner|high}} at all and using {{para|score-boxes|3}} instead of {{para|score-boxes|2+sum}}. But I lose the advantage of using {{para|bold_winner}} and have to fill in the agg. score manually, only cause of 1, maybe 2 matches in a bracket. Would {{para|boldmatch10|1}} or {{para|boldmatch10|2}} (where 10 is the matchnumber like in "skipmatch" and "1" to indicate the 1st team listed in match 10 and "2" to indicate the 2nd team listed ) be an option? --[[User:Sb008|Sb008]] ([[User talk:Sb008|talk]]) 17:06, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
:::{{ping|Sb008}} Hmm, I'm still reluctant to code it so that it assumes the top team is playing the home game in the first round because that practice, while perhaps common, probably isn't universal. For example, in match 3, if team C had played in match 1 instead, often times Team C would be listed on top because match 1 is above match 2 regardless of who played home in the first round (just going with the flow of the table). And often times the flow is dictated by which match was played first, but home or away may be decided by a coin flip. Perhaps the solution that gives the user the most control is that, where there is a tie, the sum box would be bolded if the team name is bolded via wikimark up. In other words, by my adding bold text to Team C, it would also make the sum box bold too. Does this solution work for you? Also may take me a while to find the time to do it. —[[User:Codehydro|<b style="color: #aaaaaa; font-family: Unicode; font-size:12pt;">Code</b>]][[User talk:Codehydro|<b style="color: #5577aa">Hydro</b>]] 13:59, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
:::: The "match X" strings I only used to indicate which match I'm talking about. Normally there's a date at that position. If someone would swap "match 1" and "match 2", and keep "match 3 as is, he/she created n incorrect bracket. The first team listed in "match 3" has to be from the topbranch and not the bottombranch. Only if team "C" would be, the home team in the 1st leg of "match 3", "match 1" and "match 2" would need to be swapped. Frankly, I've never seen someone making the mistake you describe. Note, I don't claim it doesn't exist, only that I've never seen it. And implementing it as I suggested only forces people to create a correct bracket. Matches have to be swapped so often, because you can tell only after the draw who is going to play who and who and who will be the home team in the 1st leg. For example [[:nl:UEFA Champions League 2020/21#Knock-outfase|UEFA Champions League 2020/21 Knock-out phase]]. The boxes for 2nd and 3rd round are intentially kept hidden, cause until the draw it's unknown who will play who and showing the boxes already, would imply you already know who's potentially playing who. Luckily the draw for the 2nd round up till the final are at the same time. The draw of the 3rd round will be, the winner of match X against the winner of match Y, where the winner in match X will be the home team in the 1st leg. Similaar like in a seeded tournament (e.g. Wimbledon). The only difference is that in a seeded tourmament there're no draws. The full bracket is known upfront based on the seeds. Have a look at {{tl|64TeamBracket}} where the seeds are filled in. Names are filled in, in the 1st round, based on the players seed, and you can tell exactly who might meet who in the 2nd, 3rd round etc. --[[User:Sb008|Sb008]] ([[User talk:Sb008|talk]]) 14:50, 5 March 2021 (UTC)

The orphan function doesn't appear to be working in [[Ice hockey at the 2022 Winter Olympics – Men's tournament#Bracket]]. The teams are reseeded between the quarterfinals and semifinals.

The node functions were something extra I threw on RoundN because I wanted to make the module more customizable but I never really finished implementing them because at the time nobody used them.

== Template editor granted ==
[[File:Wikipedia Template editor icon (1).svg|right|130px]]
Your account has been granted the "{{mono|templateeditor}}" user permission, allowing you to edit [[WP:TEMPLATE|templates]] and [[WP:MODULE|modules]] that have been protected with [[WP:TEMP-P|template protection]]. It also allows you to bypass the [[MediaWiki:Titleblacklist|title blacklist]], giving you the ability to create and edit [[WP:EDITNOTICE|editnotices]]. Before you use this user right, please read '''[[Wikipedia:Template editor]]''' and make sure you understand its contents. In particular, you should read the section on [[Wikipedia:Template editors#Wise template editing|wise template editing]] and the [[Wikipedia:Template editor#Criteria for revocation|criteria for revocation]].
You can use this user right to perform maintenance, answer edit requests, and make any other simple and generally uncontroversial edits to templates, modules, and edinotices. You can also use it to enact more complex or controversial edits, '''after''' those edits are first made to a test sandbox, and their technical reliability as well as their [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] among other informed editors has been established. If you are willing to process [[Wikipedia:Edit requests|edit requests]] on templates and modules, keep in mind that you are taking responsibility to ensure the edits have consensus and are technically sound.
This user right gives you access to some of Wikipedia's most important templates and modules; it is critical that you edit them wisely and that you only make edits that are backed up by consensus. It is also very important that no one else be allowed to access your account, so you should consider taking a few moments to [[Wikipedia:User account security|secure your password]].
If you do not want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time.
If you were granted the permission on a temporary basis you will need to re-apply for the permission a few days before it expires including in your request a permalink to the discussion where it was granted and a {{tl|ping}} for the administrator who granted the permission. You can find the permalink in your [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log/rights&page=User:Codehydro rights log].
