Stalktoy bug report

The following discussion is marked as answered (filed toolserver bug ticket). If you have a new comment, add it just below the box.

---

The pie charts on stalktoy are slightly misconfigured.

• For content projects such as Wikipedia and Wiktionary, the domain format is language-code.wikipedia.org.
• However, for chapter and community wikis, the format is country-code.wikimedia.org.

Hence:

• uk.wikimedia.org is actually Wikimedia United Kingdom (and should be classified as en or multilingual or other);
• Wikimedia Ukraine is ua.wikimedia.org instead.

See for example [1]. Deryck C. 10:02, 3 July 2012 (UTC)

Hi Deryck. Thanks for pointing that out; the errors are in the toolserver database, so I'll look into it and file a bug with the toolserver people this week. —Pathoschild 02:45, 04 July 2012 (UTC)

I looked into this and filed a toolserver bug ticket. —Pathoschild 19:44, 01 September 2012 (UTC)

Request for a script that allows locking accounts en masse

The following discussion is marked as answered (see feature tickets for HTTPS links, hard !gblocking, and updating the steward list). If you have a new comment, add it just below the box.

Hello Pathoschild. If you have time, interest, etc. it'd be good if a script like MediaWiki:Gadget-massblock.js / MediaWiki:Gadget-globalmassblock.js but for CentralAuth. We're getting flooded by spambots and the process of going to CA, write the name, select the box, the reason and click for sometimes more than 20 times is getting really tedious. If such a script could be created that'd be great. Regards, — MA (audiencia) 14:35, 19 July 2012 (UTC)

Hi Marco. You can do this with StewardBot by typing !lock username in IRC (it will automatically do the rest). If you have a list of accounts to lock, you can also do !withlist http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/List > lock. Optionally (using the !stab command), it can block them on every wiki and notify you of any edits that haven't been reverted. The bot has configurable permissions: by default only you (the bot operator) can lock an account, and you can whitelist users who can request locks (so you just do !commit request# to execute the requests, or even !commit #:# to commit a range of requests at once).

The bot is open-source and you can run it yourself if you have python, but it hasn't been maintained recently and may need to be updated. I'll look into it this weekend. —Pathoschild 15:42, 19 July 2012 (UTC)

Thank you. I knew about stewardbot which is indeed a very good tool. However it seems I need IRCLib instaled to run it and each time I've tried to install it results in a complete dissaster. I'll try again and see what happens. I thank you in advance for the updates. Best regards. — MA (audiencia) 18:10, 20 July 2012 (UTC)

Hello again. I finaly got it working but just partially because when I want to set myself on the ACCESS_OPERATOR in the DefaultSettings.py file, when I restart the bot and start __init__ again, it crashes and does not restart again. I just modified your cloak with mine, but it doesn't work anymore. I'm probably doing something bad. Regards. — MA (audiencia) 21:26, 20 July 2012 (UTC)

I spoke too soon it seems. It works for now and did tested a couple of actions with it. In the planned updates you are going to do, may I suggest to add support for https:// conection to the wiki? Also, a !gblock > address > reason > hard for global hardblocks and an update of the whitelist of users and stewards. Best regards and thank you for your help. — MA (audiencia) 21:51, 20 July 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for the suggestions. I'll look into adding those features next time I work on stewbot (I filed feature tickets for HTTPS links, hard !gblocking, and updating the steward list). —Pathoschild 19:53, 01 September 2012 (UTC)

Simple list of wikis per user, and maybe with local bureaucrat (y/n)

The following discussion is marked as answered (see feature ticket). If you have a new comment, add it just below the box.

---

Not sure whether it is something that may be applicable for stalktoy or not.

I am trying to generate a simple list of wikis where a user has accounts as they are asking for a rename, however, all lists, apart from mergeaccount, show other frippery. That got me to thinking whether stalktoy would be able to handle a column that could be turned on and off that showed local bureaucrats (per row) to manage moves, and otherwise stewards to undertake. From there we could point the respective users to the tool with the column turned on, and do those where we need to do so. Just thoughts. Hell, the ability to prepare two divided lists of Stewards vs Local 'crats would be helpful. — billinghurst sDrewth 14:52, 20 August 2012 (UTC)

Hi billinghurst. It's a good idea, but I don't know when I'll have time to add that feature. I created a feature ticket to track implementation in the meantime. (The tool is open-source if anyone else wants to work on it.) —Pathoschild 20:17, 01 September 2012 (UTC)

• Talk:Requests_for_comment/Global_bans#Wikimedia_community
• User talk:SJ#Editor wiki

Hi. Sj mentioned that you might be someone I should talk with concerning this idea.

First, what do you think about it, second, what implementation pitfalls do you think we will we need to look at, and also, as someone who deals with notifications of various projects what do you think of this from that perspective as well (and of course any other things you can think of : ) - Jc37 (talk) 19:23, 23 November 2012 (UTC)

Hi Jc37. It's a very interesting idea and there are precedents on other sites (e.g., meta.stackoverflow.com). However, I think closing the local namespaces would be a significant enough change that there would be a lot of resistance. As an intermediate solution, I would suggest an approach similar to Commons files: when viewing a user page you would see the local user page if it exists, else you would see the global page. For example, File:Example.png currently shows the content of commons:File:Example.png (including templates). There don't seem to be many technical hurdles, since this is already working for file pages. —Pathoschild 20:42, 02 December 2012 (UTC)

Standard bot policy on ru.wikivoyage

Hi Jesse. On Russian Wikivoyage we completed the two-week vote on the standard bot policy (four users voted, which is the our standard active population interested in the maintenance), the vote is here. I created a redirect from Wikivoyage:Bot policy, added a line on our community portal (where provisionally the requests will be handled), and updated this table. However, I can not do the rest: the Wikivoyage template shows up as red, presumably because we are the first Wikivoyage project to implement any bot policy, and also I can not add us to Global bots wikiset. Would you please complete the request. Thanks.--Ymblanter (talk) 12:26, 25 November 2012 (UTC)

Stewardbot problem

Hello Pathoschild. I've downloaded the files to run your bot recently in order to simplify some things (deletions, blocks etc.), however, it doesn't work properly and I didn't figure out the problem, although I'm quite sure I've set __config__.py rightly. Whenever I run __init__.py from the prompt command of Windows, it seems as if it's going to start, but then, if I try to type from an IRC channel for example this string !delete hello@xwiki > No longer needed, the bot just gives me back "No" (that's I'm not allowed to perform these kind of actions). Do you have any idea about it? --Frigotoni ...i'm here; 16:14, 14 December 2012 (UTC)

The cause is bound to be a configuration error in the wiki_names_by_level field. Snowolf ^{How can I help?} 19:31, 14 December 2012 (UTC)

I'm quite sure though that the __config__.py I compiled is alike as this one. Where's the mistake then? Or maybe have I to change something else? --Frigotoni ...i'm here; 13:30, 16 December 2012 (UTC)

Hi Frigotoni. This is a known issue with the user configuration. For now you must also update the config.irc.users_by_level setting, possibly by copying the code from the "Generated configuration" section of DefaultConfig.py. (It's autogenerated before your __config__.py settings.) —Pathoschild 03:39, 17 December 2012 (UTC)

gusersearch - possible to limit the regression

The following discussion is marked as answered (hidden feature added). If you have a new comment, add it just below the box.

---

Gday P/child. With gusersearch might it be possible to have an option so that it only regresses through accounts for a shorter time period? eg. a month. Many of the spambots we can see the regex patterns appear with a week or two, and anyway, if it is more than a month old, it is less likely to need to be locked anyway. I am looking to have something that is not going to time out toolserver, which is happening far too regularly. Thanks if that is possible. — billinghurst sDrewth 13:26, 25 December 2012 (UTC)

BTW I am trying to run a regex like [a-z]{4}[0-9][a-z]{3}[0-9]{2} and it becomes a dummy spit exercise for poor TS. — billinghurst sDrewth 13:29, 25 December 2012 (UTC)

Or could we run the regex for a maximum time that exits gracefully before we get "Exception: SQLSTATE[70100]: <<Unknown error>>: 1317 Query execution was interrupted" — billinghurst sDrewth 13:44, 25 December 2012 (UTC)

Hi Billinghurst. I think the date ranges are a good idea. I don't have toolserver access during the holidays, but I created a tracking ticket you can watch for updates. —Pathoschild 04:18, 28 December 2012 (UTC)

We are having another burst of weird and wonderfuls (6u3nznt3s8y2) that could do well with a limited period regex. Is there any progress? The github link doesn't showing any change. Thanks. — billinghurst sDrewth 02:09, 17 April 2013 (UTC)

Hello billinghurst. I'll take a look this week. —Pathoschild 04:18, 25 April 2013 (UTC)

You can now pass a lower date limit to the script (see example), but I've hidden the feature since it's a pretty major tradeoff so far. It can significantly speed up queries that would take a long time, but also slow down queries that would take little time. I'll need to look into more optimal ways to do it before adding it to the UI. —Pathoschild 01:27, 01 May 2013 (UTC)

Stalktoy bug?

The following discussion is marked as answered (issue fixed). If you have a new comment, add it just below the box.

---

Hi there,

I noticed that stalktoy is guessing that my oldest account is eswiki, even though both my ptwiki and my eswiki accounts have been registered pre-2005, and among those:

1. ptwiki is my home wiki
2. ptwiki the one where I have the most edits
3. ptwiki is the one where the first edit is the oldest: http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Waldir?dir=prev&limit=1 vs http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Waldir?dir=prev&limit=1

I undestand that per the code at lines 548-551, #1 should suffice to set ptwiki as the oldest wiki (even though I believe #3 should be used instead for this estimation). However, that's not the case. Why is that happening, and can it be fixed?

Thanks, Waldir (talk) 05:39, 7 February 2013 (UTC)

Maybe stalktoy could do a better guesswork, but the real problem here is that the database field containing the registation date was populated by WMF only on the English Wikipedia: you should file a bug or (more probably) nag people around about the existing bug. --Nemo 07:30, 7 February 2013 (UTC)

Wait—so there are logs? Why didn't they populate the database of the other wikis? Where's the existing bug? Are there relevant discussion pages/mailing list threads that people interested in this should consult? --Waldir (talk) 21:28, 8 February 2013 (UTC)

Stalktoy should correctly choose your home wiki now; the error was caused by a minor comparison bug. —Pathoschild 03:48, 09 February 2013 (UTC)

I'm afraid not. It now says "Oldest account on en.wikipedia.org (2005-02-02 03:02)". Btw, would it be feasible to use criterion #3 above to disambiguate between two (or more) wikis without user creation logs, if none of them is the home wiki? Or is that query too resource-consuming? --Waldir (talk) 18:22, 11 February 2013 (UTC)

I think checking the latest oldest edit would be too resource-consuming, but I'll look at tweaking the guess method this weekend. The best long-term solution would be to add the edit-based registration dates to the user tables, as Nemo mentioned; see bug #18638 and bug #22097. —Pathoschild 02:42, 14 February 2013 (UTC)

Fixed. Checking the latest oldest edit is too resource-consuming, but I improved the guess method. —Pathoschild 18:06, 17 February 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for the fix and for the pointer to the relevant bugs. I also edited your messages above to reflect the fact that "latest" usually means the most recent, not the most ancient (assuming that's what you meant). --Waldir (talk) 22:17, 2 May 2013 (UTC)

Polish Wikivoyage user js files

Hi

You have created files in Wikipedysta namespace that doesn't exist in the Polish Wikivoyage. The corresponding namespace is Użytkownik. So I assume it doesn't work as intended.

Kpjas (talk) 08:50, 19 February 2013 (UTC)

Thanks Kpjas. I'll look into it tonight and correct any pages in the wrong namespace. —Pathoschild 13:51, 19 February 2013 (UTC)

Bonjour,

Je me permets de t'écrire afin de te signaler un bug dans ton bot en ce qui concerne l'espace utilisateur de Wikinews en Portugais. Ton script crée les fichiers common.js des utilisateurs dans « Usuário(a):[nom_utilisateur] » au lieu de «Utilizador:[nom_utilisateur] ». Ceci concerne les journées des 18 et 19 février 2013. Veux-tu que j'efface les pages créées par erreur et que tu relances ton bot ?-- Bertrand GRONDIN  → ^(Talk) 21:09, 19 February 2013 (UTC)

Bonjour Bertrand. Merci de me rapporter l'erreur. J'ai corrigé les pages, et j'ai mis le bot en pause pendant que je cherche une manière de garantir que ça ne se reproduise plus. —Pathoschild 03:53, 20 February 2013 (UTC)

Request: Global Bots for English Wikivoyage

The following discussion is marked as answered (done). If you have a new comment, add it just below the box.

Hello - your name was listed as the contact for Bot_policy/Implementation#Implementation. I am a bureaucrat on English Wikivoyage, which has gone through the required steps for allowing global bots:

• voy:Wikivoyage_talk:Script_policy#Allowing_global_bots - live for over two weeks, approval from two bureaucrats and two other admins with no objection. The discussion was prominently listed on voy:Wikivoyage:Requests_for_comment#Policy to solicit feedback.
• voy:Project:Bot policy redirects to voy:Wikivoyage:Script_nominations.
• voy:Wikivoyage:Script_nominations has the required text at the top.

I did not complete the following two steps, the first because I wasn't sure what the "maintenance" column meant, and the second because I'm not a steward - I'm hopeful you can help me out with these:

• Update the list below, as well as Template:Bot_policy.
• As a steward, add the wiki to the Global bots wikiset.

Please let me know if there is anything else that needs to be done to enable global bots on English Wikivoyage. Thanks! -- Ryan • (talk) • 05:51, 22 February 2013 (UTC)

Hello. My name is Randall Livingstone, and I am an en.wikipedian and have spent the last two years researching bots on WP/WM projects (primarily en.wikipedia). I'm wondering if you might be available to chat with me (IRC or IM, Skype, Gchat, phone...whatever works best for you) about your experiences and knowledge of the Meta Bot Policy and Global Bots, as I am beginning to learn about bots beyond my home project. I'd greatly appreciate your time and expertise, as it looks like you were involved in the formation of these policies and guidelines.

You can learn more about me and download my dissertation here, and please let me know if you have any questions. Feel free to leave a response here, on my en.wp Talk page, or email me here if you have some time to chat, and thank you in advance for your consideration.

This research has been approved by the Institutional Review Boards at both the University of Oregon and Endicott College. (Feel free to request a copy of those protocols). UOJComm (talk) 00:58, 25 February 2013 (UTC)

Hello Randall. You can find me in Wikimedia-related IRC channels like #wikimedia^connect and #wikimedia-stewards^connect. I'm available most evenings (19h–00h EST); feel free to contact me on IRC, or let me know a convenient time and I'll make sure I'm online then. —Pathoschild 00:26, 04 March 2013 (UTC)

Hello and thank you for the reply. I appreciate your time and input. Could we plan on this Thursday (3/7) at 20:00EST on IRC? UOJComm (talk) 14:33, 5 March 2013 (UTC)

Would Friday at the same time be okay? —Pathoschild 06:59, 07 March 2013 (UTC)

Friday evening would be a maybe for me. Would you be on IRC regardless? If so, I can find you if I am home at that time and it will work for me. Otherwise, we could definitely reschedule for next week at that time (I'm free any night except Tuesday...I'm interviewing another bot op that night). Thanks again! UOJComm (talk) 17:44, 7 March 2013 (UTC)

I should be. Friday or next week is fine with me, or you can just poke me when you see me online. —Pathoschild 03:18, 08 March 2013 (UTC)

Yep, that time should be fine. —Pathoschild 04:11, 11 March 2013 (UTC)

Greetings Steward.

User:DerHexer said that you're the one to see with regards to questions about restrictions for voting in Steward Elections. [2] Long story short I wanted to find out the reasons for the rule that there must have been 600 edits before November 2012. I've been to Snowolf who pointed me towards DerHexer who now says you'll have an idea, Can you shed any light on my question please? Thank you. MIVP - (Can I Help?) - (HeadQuarters) 12:48, 3 March 2013 (UTC)

Hello MIVP. The edit requirements for voters were first introduced in the 2009 elections following a discussion about suffrage. Derived from the 2008 Board elections rules, the tightened requirements were intended to make it harder to manipulate the elections by creating multiple accounts. —Pathoschild 02:01, 04 March 2013 (UTC)

That makes sense to me. I already have over 600 edits on en wikipedia plus my Meta page so i'm all set I think. Next year MI, next year, heh. Thank you kindly. MIVP - (Can I Help?) - (HeadQuarters) 09:42, 4 March 2013 (UTC)

Hey Pathoschild,

I wanted to ask for your help. As you may be aware we have been running banners on many language wikis. We have a lot of new content this year and I really want to conduct a thorough review of our translations. This is a combination of feedback from the community, readers, donors as well as those with professional translator experience. This will help us ensure the highest quality of translations used in our messaging.

To help us out with this I wonder if you would be willing to give us feedback in french using This Link

Simply follow the simple instructions on that page and if you have any questions feel free to contact me on my talk page.

Many Thanks

re: Synchbot service blocked by filter

Hello Mahitgar. It looks like you maintain the "भला मोठ्ठा अमराठी मजकूर (सदस्य नामविश्व)" abuse filter. It currently blocks the Synchbot service, which creates user pages for global users who have an account on this wiki (and on other wikis). This seems to be deliberate. Would you like me to disable the Synchbot service on this wiki? —Pathoschild १८:४८:२५, ०२ जून २०१३ (UTC)

Hi,

Just took note of your message on my talk page on mr-wiki.And looking in to it, and will keep you posted apropriatelly.

Mahitgar (He who knows ,wants to know and and loves to keep others informed) (talk) 03:19, 3 June 2013 (UTC)

1) Your filtered edits have been studied. Your edits are largely got filtered by edit filter that monitors for local language usage policy.

2) The local language policy expects Marathi language people to use marathi language in Devnagari Script, and provides for apropriate exceptions for non-Marathi people. The relevant exceptions to you are as follows:

• User pages of (only) Non-Marathi Wikipedians; (Gadgets and js script codes within wiki policy)

To avail this exception, Your content need to include either of following : javascript/bot/mr-0/(R/r)edirect/soft redirect.

Please see if you can include mr-0 in concerned babel template.Being automated bot if you find it defficult then you may consider an option to subst {{CONTENTLANG}}-0 in babel template.

If that also is defficult then, you may give thought to include {{CONTENTLANG}}-0 or local language-0 atleast in your edit summary.

Actually from 2nd june to 3rd july 2012 your edits had managed through this filter very well,May be before 3rd July 2012 your were doing the edits manually or there was a change in your script.In any case based on your previous edits, we have updated this filter time to time with apropriate and usefull exceptions.

This time, we look forward to your kind co-operation, as requested above, by opting for babel mr-0 or {{CONTENTLANG}}-0 in your content or summary.If not this we can discuss any other suggessions from your side, what we are interested in getting our purpose served.

If we do not get technical solution through this discussion then next option would be our Marathi language bots will pick up non-mr user page babel cases from meta directly and you can put off your script for babel part on mr in that case.

3)There is a small backlog of your filtered edits from 3rd july to 19 feb. With apropriate exceptions you can repost those or alternatively give me a go ahead and my bot will do the work for you.

• News letters for registered user talk pages from Sister projects (Summary in that respect mandatory)

This exception is also available

4)Just for your info Marathi Wikipedia local policy does not expect edits from SWMTs and global sysops but this has no co-relation with above discussion.

Regrets for any inconvinience.

Thanks and Regards

Mahitgar (He who knows ,wants to know and and loves to keep others informed) (talk) 05:39, 3 June 2013 (UTC)

Your reply is awaited .Thanks and Regards - Mahitgar (He who knows ,wants to know and and loves to keep others informed) (talk) 23:02, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

Hello Mahitgar. Thanks for your reply. I would prefer not to change the user's text without telling them. Adding something to the edit summary would work very well for me. Let me know what text you would prefer and I'll make the necessary changes to the bot. —Pathoschild 00:12, 07 June 2013 (UTC)

Thanks, I have understood your point of view. I will add more exception options on summary side very soon and update you.

Mahitgar (He who knows ,wants to know and and loves to keep others informed) (talk) 17:32, 7 June 2013 (UTC)

• For the said filter, on summary side we have added following exceptions "mr-0","en-0","CONTENTLANG-0","Presumed CONTENTLANG-0","P.C.L.-0"
  • summary side exceptions "mr-0","en-0","CONTENTLANG-0" will continue whether you use it or not ; for mr-wiki's own benefit.
  • In summaries en will not have its 'magic word' value so CONTENTLANG-0 without bracket may be a good option among the two, but take is yours.
  • "P.C.L.-0" is an option provided to you as short form of "Presumed CONTENTLANG-0" to manage summary length limits
  • (summary) exceptions "Presumed CONTENTLANG-0" and/or "P.C.L.-0" are created only for your bot usage purpose .If you do not want to use either of those, please communicate to us so we can drop them to maitain server usage to its optimum.

Waiting for yor reply

Thanks and Regards

Mahitgar (He who knows ,wants to know and and loves to keep others informed) (talk) 19:44, 7 June 2013 (UTC)

I will add "[presumed mr-0]" to the edit summary. Thanks for your help. —Pathoschild 00:07, 08 June 2013 (UTC)

Requested edit summary excpetion "[presumed mr-0]" is now added to the said filter and tested from our side. We will track atleast next ten edits to see that you are able to work smoothly.Ofcource you are most welcome to aproach us back in case of any difficulty.You are most welcome.

Warm regards

Mahitgar (He who knows ,wants to know and and loves to keep others informed) (talk) 03:08, 8 June 2013 (UTC)

If I understand correctly, you can simplify your abuse filter by removing the exceptions for "[presumed mr-0]" and "presumed mr-0", because your existing exception for "mr-0" will match them too. In any case, thanks again. —Pathoschild 04:07, 08 June 2013 (UTC)

Yes, you are right.I have already tested for the same on a test filter.Still included temporarily so that I can drop unwanted ones after your 10 successfull edits,and you can work without any worries.

• There can be rare case, where in there is no other content change and only interwiki for user page so we have added exception in summarry for word "interwiki" too. This is just for your info and record.

Thanks for your kind support to another user's querry on my talk page.

Thanks again and Regards

Hi,

weve been tidying up cs.wv and we have found out that you have placed userscript at a subpage of nonexistent user or to ns 0. How we can handle it? Can we delete such pages? We dont have a complete list yet, but these are some examples:

• v:cs:Wikipedista:संतोष दहिवळ/common.js
• v:cs:Wikipedista:Techman224/common.js
• v:cs:Wikipedista:Sumone10154/common.js
• v:cs:Wikipedista:Meisam/common.js

--Juandev (talk) 23:27, 1 September 2013 (UTC)

More precise:

1. It seems to be the complete list.
2. There is no NS "Wikipedista:" at csWikiversity. The User-alias is "Uživatel:". So that those pages have landed into the main NS.

--Mmh (talk) 23:35, 1 September 2013 (UTC)

Now I understand it better Mmh. I think the problem was that Patchoschild deployed script import to wrong page. So we can move these pages to right position and delte this. All users mentioned above exist at cs.wv. I thought the problem is much complicated.--Juandev (talk) 23:42, 1 September 2013 (UTC)

Hello Juandev. Yes, you can delete or rename these pages. This is a script issue that has already been fixed, but I didn't spot those pages on csWikiversity. Sorry for the inconvenience. —Pathoschild 00:05, 02 September 2013 (UTC)

OK, thanks, we'll move them to their right places. --Mmh (talk) 11:31, 3 September 2013 (UTC)

Oh, we will NOT move them to their right places. As an ordinary custodian/admin I have not the rights for it, because of the JavaScript content. So that: Pathoschild, can you import them to their right destinations, please?

• v:cs:Uživatel:संतोष दहिवळ/common.js
• v:cs:Uživatel:Techman224/common.js
• v:cs:Uživatel:Sumone10154/common.js
• v:cs:Uživatel:Meisam/common.js

I will delete the wrong ones then. --Mmh (talk) 11:38, 3 September 2013 (UTC)

Could you please tell me what a chapter wiki is? Thank you very much in advance.--William915 (talk) 03:25, 22 September 2013 (UTC)

Hello William915. Some Wikimedia chapters have special wikis for their own use (like the Wikimedia Eesti chapter wiki); these are separate from the normal 'content wikis' like Wikipedia. (They may also be called fishbowl wikis when they're not publicly editable.) —Pathoschild 03:44, 22 September 2013 (UTC)

That's very clear. Thank you.--William915 (talk) 09:51, 22 September 2013 (UTC)

Sorry, before another edit (and loss of time), i can use {{#babel:it|en-2|{{#ifeq:{{CONTENTLANGUAGE}}|en||{{SUBST:CONTENTLANGUAGE}}-0}}}} in the request? It work, but make a another problems?--Wim b / [ t ] 13:39, 22 September 2013 (UTC)

Hi Wim b. I suggest {{#babel:it|en-2|{{subst:#switch:{{subst:CONTENTLANGUAGE}}|en|it=|{{subst:CONTENTLANGUAGE}}-0}}}}, which will work for Italian too. —Pathoschild 21:33, 22 September 2013 (UTC)

Ok, i follow your tip, thanks again--Wim b / [ t ] 22:06, 22 September 2013 (UTC)
