Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion ↗). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was <code>true</code>. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to <code>false</code> in the next few days. This does ''not'' require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer have them marked as minor by default.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you are familiar with the contents of WP:MINOR ↗, and believe that it is still beneficial to the encyclopedia to have all your edits marked as such by default, then this discussion ↗ will give you the details you need to continue with this functionality indefinitely. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 22:30, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for April 30

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Marcelo H. del Pilar ↗, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Quiapo ↗ (check to confirm ↗ | fix with Dab solver ↗). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. <small>Read the FAQ{{*}} Join us at the DPL WikiProject ↗.</small>

Marcelo H. del Pilar ↗

Hi MartyWilliams, I think you should be aware that the above article keeps getting vandalised, and it has been so for a long, long time dating back to ancient history. Perhaps, you want to correct the vandalised info/revert to the last clean version (which is years ago)? It's gonna be very tedious, as those bunch of IPs (I believe is the same person) have been vandalsiing it for years. Cheers. <span style="color:blue; font-family:Comic Sans MS">'''Arctic'''</span> <span style="color:brown; font-family:Comic Sans MS">'''Kangaroo'''</span> 02:37, 4 May 2013 (UTC)

Problem with your custom signature

You have a custom signature set in your account preferences. A change to Wikipedia's software ↗ has made your current custom signature incompatible with the software.

'''The problem:''' Your preferences are set to interpret your custom signature as wikitext ↗. However, your current custom signature does not contain any wikitext.

'''The solutions:''' You can reset your signature to the default, or you can fix your signature.

:'''Solution 1: Reset your signature to the default:'''
:# Find the signature section in the first tab of Special:Preferences ↗.
:# Uncheck the box (☑︎→☐) that says "'''Treat the above as wiki markup.'''"
:# Remove anything in the {{int:yournick}} text box. (It might already be empty.)
:# Click the blue "{{int:Saveprefs}}" button at the bottom of the page. (The red "{{int:Restoreprefs}}" button will reset all of your preference settings, not just the signature.)
:'''Solution 2: Fix your custom signature:'''
:# Find the signature section in the first tab of Special:Preferences ↗.
:# Uncheck the box (☑︎→☐) that says "'''Treat the above as wiki markup.'''"
:# Click the blue "{{int:Saveprefs}}" button at the bottom of the page.

More information about custom signatures is available at Wikipedia:Signatures#Customizing how everyone sees your signature ↗. If you have followed these instructions and still want help, please leave a message at Wikipedia talk:Signatures ↗. Thank you. 18:03, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

Image size?

Why? Doesn't the software normally determine the best size automatically, and you shouldn't need to hard code a specific image size which might look best on your screen and not others. -- <span style="color: #006A4E;">'''Green'''</span><span style="color: #093;">'''C'''</span> 15:27, 3 May 2025 (UTC)

:User:MartyWilliams: According to WP:IMAGESIZE ↗ and MOS:IMAGESIZE ↗:
::"Except with very good reason, a fixed width in pixels (e.g. 17px) should not be specified, because it ignores the user's base width setting."
:Hard-coding image size is not needed in most causes, it overrides custom settings made by users.
