Bot bug[edit]
Getting anywhere on that pywikibot problem? Maybe it's got too long a list of things to work on, and that fills up memory? It's hard to imagine logging so much that it fills up anything like the amount of memory that programs tend to be given these days. Dicklyon (talk) 06:36, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
@Dicklyon: I haven't had a chance to work on it, sorry (currently in the middle of moving to a new house). Bsoyka (t • c • g) 01:54, 11 July 2024 (UTC)This section is pinned and will not be automatically archived. - Have a good move! Dicklyon (talk) 02:19, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
Question from Balsamo Giulio (17:48, 7 July 2024)[edit]
Hi, i have a question about how to add a list of seasons/episodes on a TV show. I have re-written a arleady deleted and unaccepted draft and have reached a stubling point in my writing, a stumbling that has also been a question in my mind for a while now. My page has a section named eras, as the show i am writing about contains multiple eras in it's first eight seasons and i wanted to make a section explaining what the era is, what it is about and then make a sub-heading to list how many seasons that era lasted but i have no idea how to do it. I looked the code on multiple pages for this kind of stuff, but even if i copy the code from other pages and fix it for my own page, i can't get it to appear. I wonder if i'm supposed to firstly create a episode page for the show and then copy the data on the main page... or create a code for a new template. Like for example, list of Breaking Bad episodes.
Here's the link to show you what i'm meaning about, don't worry, i'm not done with the page yet, i wanna make it as good as i can. I think the information and the rules like online information from articles and websites are sufficient and good enough to give it a go. Although i'm not 100% sure this page can be made after all, it'll be my way to test how things work around here.

(Balsamo Giulio (talk) 20:22, 8 July 2024 (UTC))
- @Balsamo Giulio: Hey! Before you try too hard to get the formatting right, I don't think an "eras" section really fits here. Unless I'm missing something, no reliable sources describe the seasons in terms of eras, and we can't just make those up on Wikipedia. Are these already described somewhere else?

Horizons for Homeless Children draft[edit]
Hi Bsoyka! A few years ago you helped me with my draft for Breaktime (organization). I'm currently writing more Wikipedia pages for nonprofits in Boston doing impactful work. Could you please take a look at my draft for Horizons? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Horizons_for_Homeless_Children
Thanks so much! Let me know if there's anything else I need to add WikiSpitfire (talk) 18:10, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
@WikiSpitfire: Hey! Yes, I remember that! Your draft looks pretty good at a first glance. I'm somewhat busy in the real world right now but would be happy to come back and take a deeper look later.

Hi Ben, I'm Victor! I would like to ask why my previous edit was re-edited when everything (for me) was apparently correct?? --Vilhena02 (talk) 22:26, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Vilhena02: Hey! It looks like the other user mainly just moved your added content up in the table a little bit. You can see the exact changes. Also, keep in mind Wikipedia is and always will be continuously growing and changing, and that's okay. Hope this helps a bit! Bsoyka (t • c • g) 02:02, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
Question from TwentyTwo Jason (17:20, 10 July 2024)[edit]
I want to start writing articles here on Wikipedia as well. And also monetize while at it --TwentyTwo Jason (talk) 17:20, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
- @TwentyTwo Jason: In that case, you're absolutely in the wrong place. Wikipedia is not in any way a place to monetize your work. In fact, it's quite the opposite: all contributions to Wikipedia become freely licensed for anyone to use almost anywhere. However, if you'd like to try contributing without monetization, H:GS is a great getting-started guide to the encyclopedia. Hope this helps, and welcome to Wikipedia!

Question from Guidegoose2 (01:26, 12 July 2024)[edit]
How do I highlight in blue items (words) that refer back to articles that provide additional information about that topic of word that currently exists in wikipedia? --Guidegoose2 (talk) 01:26, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Guidegoose2: Hey there! You're talking about wikilinks—here's a quick tutorial on what they are and how to use them. Hope this helps! Bsoyka (t • c • g) 01:30, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
