Template talk:Height
Given your previous involvement in the discussion at Template_talk:Height#Centimetres, I just thought I'd bring a closely related Request for Comment to your attention (as per Wikipedia:Canvassing).--Gibson Flying V (talk) 03:52, 23 January 2014 (UTC)
Consistent Access Dates per MOSNUM
Hi JimWae. Recently you made an edit to Metrication in the United States changing citation access dates to a format like 2014-01-27. While I don't really have a problem with that, I'm confused with this change because I generated a few of the citations using the Wikipedia citation templates within the source editor. For the access dates, I clicked the "today" button and for one of the citations that had a date, I filled out the "month", "day", and "year" fields, which you condensed into a single "date" field. Thus I find it odd that the citations generated by the template were wrong and needed to be fixed.
It seems to me that either the citation templates aren't up to the current manual of style or the templates are right and you are misinterpreting the manual of style. Could you please look into this? -Thunderforge (talk) 16:33, 28 January 2014 (UTC)
- I think pointing you to Template:Cite_web#Deprecated will best answer your question. Regards, --JimWae (talk) 17:18, 28 January 2014 (UTC)
Greetings
Hello Jim. The article Agnosticism has been promoted to GA Status. Now I have nominated the article for DYK too. I was a bit confused about the selection of hook, as the scope of the article is very wide. Anyway I have posted two hooks. I shall be grateful if you review the hooks, and if necessary propose an alternate hook. Faizan 14:24, 11 February 2014 (UTC)
DYK for Agnosticism
| On 16 February 2014, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Agnosticism, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that the word "agnosticism" was coined by biologist Thomas Henry Huxley? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Agnosticism. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |
