Hi Headbomb. You deleted 3 links to LibriVox. Although currently LibriVox doesn't have a huge selection of audio books with the word "Physics" or "Chemistry" or "Biology" in the title over time that library will grow. These books are old and may appear irrelevant to modern research but they still have value. It would be nice to have access to free audio books with the most current information but copyright prevents this. The goal of this Wikipedia page is to enable people to learn about Physics. Many people have jobs and don't want to spend their whole lives sitting still looking at screens or printed text. Audio books allow people to learn about Physics while working, cleaning their homes, driving, walking outside, caring for children, etc. Almost all of the links on this Wikipedia page are to other pages with text or video. If you could create a link to LibriVox that selected all the audio books in the Physics category that would be ideal instead of just searching for books with the word "Physics" in the title. Thanks. |

Thank you Headbomb for fixing the citations (here there and everywhere). I've been using Wiki Text editor and it just does not handle the citations well (unless of course I'm the erroneous human)...So have abandoned that mode and hopefully shall lessen your workload. Many thanks --[[User:Iztwoz|Iztwoz]] ([[User talk:Iztwoz|talk]]) 15:27, 25 September 2019 (UTC) |

:Not really sure where exactly I fixed something (I fix a lot), but you might want to make use of the [[WP:Citation expander]] instead of the text editor. It lets you do cleanup pretty easily (see [[User:Headbomb/Tips and Tricks]].)  <span style="font-variant:small-caps; whitespace:nowrap;">[[User:Headbomb|Headbomb]] {[[User talk:Headbomb|t]] · [[Special:Contributions/Headbomb|c]] · [[WP:PHYS|p]] · [[WP:WBOOKS|b]]}</span> 19:36, 25 September 2019 (UTC) |

Reference organizer script
Awesome job on 2I/Borisov, thanks! I was just thinking of doing it manually. Turns out, there's a script for that. Sometimes it pays off to be a procrastinator One thing I would like the script to do, though, is to align the "=" characters, like so:
<ref name="CBAT4670"> {{cite web |title = IAU Electronic Telegram No. 4670 |publisher = Central Bureau for Astronomical Telegrams |url = https://pdssbn.astro.umd.edu/cbet/2019/4670.html |url-status = live |accessdate = 2019-09-25 }}</ref>
I think it's much easier to spot an occasional typo this way. What do you think? — UnladenSwallow (talk) 14:01, 27 September 2019 (UTC)

Update your UCB script for hashtags
https://github.com/ms609/citation-bot/pull/2173 You have your own, if you change your via= AManWithNoPlan (talk) 22:37, 30 September 2019 (UTC)
- @AManWithNoPlan: what do I need to change it to?
via=User%3AHeadbomb%2Fcitations.js?

Change via=toolbar to via=Headbomb — Preceding unsigned comment added by AManWithNoPlan (talk • contribs)
- Done, although having a mask is a very sub-optimal/semantically awful way of doing things, since I'm not doing this via 'Headbomb', but rather via 'User:Headbomb/citations.js' and you can't declare things like
via=Category:CS1 errors: DOI
,via={{cite arXiv}}
, etc... Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 13:13, 3 October 2019 (UTC)
HEALPix
hi Headbomb - I put a COI warning in my recent edit at HEALPix - so feel free to switch the discussion to Talk:HEALPix if you think my ref edits are a problem. Boud (talk) 15:59, 2 October 2019 (UTC)
to talk
1. It is a title, not a sentence 2. it is typographically sound 3. you could have gone to talk too 4. once disputed, one should not discuss through editsummary

all OK?
Boy, Sir, everything fine? You're so verbally/editingly aggressive. Anything wrong, I can do for you? DePiep (talk) 00:35, 10 October 2019 (UTC)
