Archive box

Please note that some articles have additional information in their "manual" archive boxes, such as date ranges, issues addressed within the archive and so on. I have reverted your change in the archive style at Talk:Albert Einstein (I hope you don't mind). Anyway, I trust you will use sound judgement on whether an automatic archive box works for a particular talk page or not. Cheers, Silly rabbit (talk) 04:28, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

I updated Talk:Albert Einstein to use the "archive banner" template again. I think you'll like the improvements I made. Thanks for your suggestion. Timneu22 (talk) 14:35, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

Thanks! Silly rabbit (talk) 14:51, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

I completely agree with your comment to this. Please see my comment, and then based off of that - shall we ask for a reassessment? - Milk's Favorite Cookie 18:59, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

I added more notes to it. I think they should just add the {{fact}} tags and then we'd have a starting point. Otherwise, it is just vague -- you need more references, but I won't tell you where. How is that helpful? ;-) Timneu22 (talk) 11:29, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

Copyvio

Regarding your assertion that copyvio tags aren't necessary... copyright infringement is a very serious issue and must be dealt with swiftly and properly. I'm sure you didn't insert copyrighted material in the article, however I find it worrisome that you object to copyvio tags being placed on articles that clearly are in violation of legal copyrights. Please review our policies regarding copyrights. Thanks. /Blaxthos ( t / c ) 20:17, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

My reply; you missed the whole point. Timneu22 (talk) 10:59, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

After section edit, return to section

{{helpme}}

I have asked this question all over the place... surely someone must know the answer... http://www.mwusers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=6987

I'm not sure. I administer my own Wiki, and I return to the edited section, or at least the first section with the same header text. What version are you running? Have you customized the URL at all? Bovlb (talk) 23:19, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

The primary wiki is on 1.9.3. (I have another wiki on 1.7 or something; same behavior.) There is some customization, but nothing related to this. Where do I even look in the PHP files? I'd just like a place to start! Timneu22 (talk) 03:04, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Hmm. Let's start with the URL. Do you end up with a URL with an anchor fragment in it? Bovlb (talk) 04:01, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

No. It shows:

• http://wiki.mysite.com/index.php?title=Some_page, not:
• http://wiki.mysite.com/index.php?title=Some_page#Prev_section. Timneu22 (talk) 15:43, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

It could be a technical problem.--Sunny910910 05:38, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

This happens without customization, for two installs. I'm sure there's some php setting that differs, but I don't know where. Timneu22 (talk) 13:10, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

I have removed the {{helpme}} template, as this is not a question regarding using Misplaced Pages. Greeves 18:36, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Sorry to take so long to follow up. Is it possible that you're creating sections with <Hn> tags instead of the wiki === headers? I think that that might cause this effect as they don't behave quite like normal sections. Bovlb (talk) 23:56, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

No. Always using wiki syntax "==". Timneu22 (talk) 16:01, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

When you go into section edit, and view the source, is there a line like:

 <input type='hidden' value="4" name="wpSection" />

with some value? Bovlb (talk) 17:31, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

Indeed, sir.. <input type='hidden' value="2" name="wpSection" /> Timneu22 (talk) 17:54, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

This seems to be the relevant code from includes/EditPage.php:

        } elseif( $this->section != '' ) {
            # Try to get a section anchor from the section source, redirect to edited section if header found
            # XXX: might be better to integrate this into Article::replaceSection
            # for duplicate heading checking and maybe parsing
            $hasmatch = preg_match( "/^ *({1,6})(.*?)(\\1) *\\n/i", $this->textbox1, $matches );
            # we can't deal with anchors, includes, html etc in the header for now,
            # headline would need to be parsed to improve this
            if($hasmatch and strlen($matches) > 0) {
                $sectionanchor = $this->sectionAnchor( $matches );
            }
        }
        wfProfileOut( "$fname-sectionanchor" );

I can't really see why this would fail. I suggest that you check this code in your installation. Does this fail uniformly with every possible section content? Bovlb (talk) 18:35, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

This code appears in my EditPage.php verbatim. :( Timneu22 (talk) 22:59, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
