Welcome

While you've been on IRC for a bit, I'm glad to see you finally doing some learning projects. :) We should do a bit of scoping on the software that both wikio and wikicast will need, whether it be just docs/notes on existing stuff or actual new development.

I hope you enjoy your time here! Historybuff 20:47, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

technical question

"do we currently have the option with the current setup of transmission break in?" <-- I have that option in in the OSX version of version of MuSE (muse.dyne.org). I tried it on the old (slow processor) machine I am using and it was really horrible...either because I did not know what I was doing or it was beyond the capacity of my processor. For quality and reliability, I think it would be best to stream playlists directly from the icecast server. Under those conditions it might be possible do "transmission break in", but I'm not sure about that. Alternatively, someone could produce the audio stream from a more powerful PC or a different OS. The Macintosh version of MuSE is not really supported and seems to lack some of the documented features of the software. Also, as I recall, there was another type of software for making streams, but no Mac version. User:Moulton and User:Historybuff know much more about this stuff than I do. --JWSchmidt 22:30, 1 November 2008 (UTC)

"'break into' the transmission to make a suitable announcment, I will come up with some wording" <-- almost any content is welcome and I can add it to the audio stream on short notice. --JWSchmidt 18:45, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

Sure, a podcast would be fun. I assume you mean the recent work from Venter's group. What aspect of the story are you interested in? --JWSchmidt 04:32, 23 May 2010 (UTC)

virus

It might be useful to add a section on microbial disease to RNA interference/Medical. --JWSchmidt 17:56, 31 May 2010 (UTC)

Your messages

Thank you for your message. I do not own a copy of the Chronological Table of the Statutes. I had access to it through a library which I now unfortunately have to pay to visit. I am unable to give any commitment that I will be able to upload it. Regards. James500 (discuss • contribs) 13:16, 5 August 2013 (UTC)

I think that criminal trespass (ie to land) is probably a suitable topic for Wikipedia, and that a list could go there. This subject is discussed in the thirteenth edition of Smith and Hogan's Criminal Law at p 974 (at the end of a chapter on burglary and related offences under the heading of "other trespass offences"). That book suggests, as further reading on this subject, chapter 5 of The Law of Public Order and Protest, 2010, by P Thornton et al. The twelfth edition of Card, Cross and Jones: Criminal Law has sections on offences of "entering and remaining on property" and aggravated trespass from pages 349 to 356. So it is probably a notable topic. James500 (discuss • contribs) 21:01, 8 September 2013 (UTC)

Double Redirects

Thanks for your help on the double redirects. We do have a bot that cleans those up. But if you'd like to help with some of the other Category:Wikiversity maintenance items, it would be most appreciated! -- Dave Braunschweig (discuss • contribs) 12:52, 5 April 2016 (UTC)

Instructional Design

Instructional Design is a graduate course sequence at Indiana University. Students were required to use Wikiversity for their content development. They haven't participated here for several years now. You're not likely to get a response regarding Instructional design/Discussion Roles. At this point we can correct it however makes the most sense to us. -- Dave Braunschweig (discuss • contribs) 13:24, 19 August 2020 (UTC)

Curatorship

I'd like to nominate you for curatorship if you are interested. It gives you more content management tools. -- Dave Braunschweig (discuss • contribs) 20:33, 28 August 2020 (UTC)

@Dave Braunschweig: Thank you for the offer, but at present I will have to decline, as I don't have enough experience or policy knowledge, in addition I don't technically "need" the tools to continue with the Lint fixes.. ShakespeareFan00 (discuss • contribs) 22:18, 28 August 2020 (UTC)

Edit query

[1] - just checking re the intention of this edit? The student working on the page didn't understand why the hanging indent template was hidden? Sincerely, James -- Jtneill - Talk - c 13:00, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

Good catch... I'd commented it to find the LintError, and forget to de-comment it after the repair was completed... HTH. Repaired.ShakespeareFan00 (discuss • contribs) 13:02, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

Again: Please look at your edits, before saving them!

In this edit you have replaced small tags by {{smaller block}}, which does not exist. (What you meant was {{small block}}.) If you had bothered to look at your edit before saving it, you would have seen, that the whole paragraph was replaced by a red link. You have done this before, when you replaced working font tags by broken span tags. (See here.) Plase stop assuming that your edits should work, and instead use the show preview button. Watchduck (quack) 09:32, 17 October 2023 (UTC)

When you replaced <small> by {{Small block}}, have you made sure that the content did not contain equals signs or tags with attributes? See Template talk:Small block. --Watchduck (quack) 11:26, 22 April 2024 (UTC)

Please provide SPECFIC examples, I was not finding many pages with {{small block}} and an equals sign still present. ShakespeareFan00 (discuss • contribs) 11:30, 22 April 2024 (UTC)

Well, this template is almost unused. It's more complicated for {{X-smaller block}}. I would say that in {{Chapter navigation top}} you have a lot of trust, that all this stuff will never contain a forbidden character. (Equals signs are not forbidden in page names.) So especially there, I would rather have a styled div tag. But generally, I would not put pass large amounts of stuff as parameter into a template. Where templates really improve usability, it might be better to replace start and end tags separately (as I did with {{Collapsible START}}). --Watchduck (quack) 12:35, 22 April 2024 (UTC)

Ah, I realize you actually did that using {{X-smaller block/s}} and {{X-smaller block/e}}. --Watchduck (quack) 14:01, 22 April 2024 (UTC)

Query does Wikiversity implement Template Data? There's a tool I use over on Wikisource to look for 'mangled' parameters included unescaped = signs? ShakespeareFan00 (discuss • contribs) 14:04, 22 April 2024 (UTC)

I assume he has a pattern-matching script that traverses the site and makes these minor adjustments. Kind of neat. Care to share the code? AP295 (discuss • contribs) 12:06, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
