Traffic Report question
Hi, MusikAnimal. Regarding Traffic Report, it seems if a page is moved then it is not possible to see its legacy traffic.
Ideally, the legacy traffic would be seen on a separate graph.
I looked at Sorcha Faal reports and there is no data.
I tried to look at its old name Sorcha Faal but the tool will not allow me to view that page name. Ping me back. Cheers! {{u|Checkingfax}} {Talk}

- Ditto with a couple others, and it appears not to be able to use the old names moved from. Anmccaff (talk) 20:37, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
- @Checkingfax and Anmccaff: Well for Sorcha Faal reports, you're not seeing any data because the Wikimedia API hasn't populated anything into the new location. This usually takes a full 24 hours. When it does get populated, you'll only see data for the new location, though. This is a known issue, and technically a limitation on the WMF-side. Adding a workaround is on the radar, but it may be a while. In the meantime you can just add the redirects to the list of articles to show, like this. Once data becomes available for the new location you will see it plotted alongside the old location.
Regarding why you couldn't find Sorcha Faal, you have to enable searching of redirects in Settings > "Autocompletion including redirects". However, it appears this still won't show redirects... I guess the opensearch functionality has changed. How frustrating. I can try to find out why this happened, and what I can do to allow searching of redirects. For your case I just manually put in
Sorcha_Faal
in the URL to get it to show that data. Hope this helps — MusikAnimal talk 22:05, 8 April 2016 (UTC)- Thanks. Anmccaff (talk) 22:22, 8 April 2016 (UTC)

Page view statistics seems to unable to handle "&"
The "Page view statistics" tool has a problem with pages like "Mead & Conway" it shows up as "Mead" and the graph seems to belong to the other page too. Having thought about this some more, this may also be a security issue. Bytesock (talk) 12:10, 9 April 2016 (UTC)
- @Bytesock: Should be fixed now. Thanks for the report — MusikAnimal talk 22:19, 9 April 2016 (UTC)

Thanks!
The vandalism levels are quite bad at the moment - probably because of school children returning from their Easter holidays. Thanks for helping out today, and for deleting that article - much appreciated! --Ches (talk) (contribs) 18:10, 11 April 2016 (UTC)

Do you want one Edit tab, or two? It's your choice
You can choose one or two edit tabs. If you chose one edit tab, then you can switch between the two editing environments by clicking the buttons in the toolbar (shown in the screenshots). See Help:VisualEditor/User guide#Switching between the visual and wikitext editors for more information and screenshots.
There is more information about this interface change at mw:VisualEditor/Single edit tab. If you have questions, suggestions, or problems to report, then please leave a note at Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback.

@Cyberpower678: In the edit counter (x-tools), clicking on a link below SUL Editcounter gives me an Error 301 (and makes wait a while) before it redirects. I remember pushing two commits to fix the 301 and that seems to have been left out. Could you fix it? --QEDK (T ☕ C) 07:54, 12 April 2016 (UTC)

Stats tool
I am not sure if you have been informed but the stats tool has been down for a week. Btw good work on maintaining the tool. --Makeandtoss (talk) 19:27, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
- @Makeandtoss: Sorry, not sure what tool you're referring to? — MusikAnimal talk 19:33, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
- Page view statistics.. Unless its not called a tool lol. --Makeandtoss (talk) 19:34, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
- @Makeandtoss: It is a tool, but it should be working. What browser/operating system are you using? Do you have cookies disbaled or are using an ad blocker? — MusikAnimal talk 19:48, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
- I am using an adblocker, buts its irrelevant because I can see the tool but I can't see data for the past 7 days. This is the same for all articles Makeandtoss (talk) 19:55, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
- @Makeandtoss: (Hope you don't mind the pings) Hmm you should be seeing data, I do at [10]. Is that on enwiki or a different project? Are you seeing any data for other articles? — MusikAnimal talk 20:01, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
- On enwiki yes, the same link you just put.. No same thing for other articles.Makeandtoss (talk) 20:13, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
- @Makeandtoss: Alright, I know this annoying, but would you mind following the steps at WP:JSERROR to tell me what errors you're getting (if any)? Also which browser/OS are you using? E.g. IE 10, Windows 7, etc? — MusikAnimal talk 20:16, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
- "Chrome: Page menu → Tools → JavaScript Console (Ctrl+⇧ Shift+J). For OSX, use ⌥ Option+⌘ Command+I then hit esc (escape) to open the JavaScript console. Errors will appear in red." Im using a chrome on a mac, im getting "more tools" instead of "tools" and no "Javascript Console" shows up. I tried pressing the keys but they don't work either.

(←) @Makeandtoss: Click on the "Developer tools" link, as seen in your screenshot. From there click on the "Console" tab, load the Pageviews app for Jordan, and see if there's anything in red — MusikAnimal talk 20:58, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
- Nope, nothing in red. Makeandtoss (talk) 21:07, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
Hello from Iamjustclay
Hello! I noticed my article has been deleted and i think that is unnecessary given that the info i uploaded was of my album just the same as any artists. Would've been nice for someone to explain to me what went wrong! My album is charting and i am a professional indie artist and a Grammy nominated songwriter if accolades are what you are looking for. I would really appreciate the help in putting my info here for the people who are searching for me and my music, if that isn't a problem. Cheers Iamjustclay (talk) 19:35, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
- @Iamjustclay: Hey! Sorry you're having trouble. On Wikipedia, when someone wants to communicate with you, they'll do so on your talk page. There a see several notices and a personal message explaining what was wrong with your articles. I'll stand by their position, which is first and foremost you really should not be writing about yourself. If your work is notable enough, rest assured an article will be created eventually. The ones you created seemed overly promotional, which is why autobiographies are so strongly discouraged. You also need to include proper sourcing to assert that the subject meets our notability guideline. If you wish to make another attempt at these articles please go through our Articles For Creation program, so that more experienced editors can help you with your articles. Use the article wizard to get this set up. Hope this helps — MusikAnimal talk 19:45, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
Brooklyn Chinatown image
Excellent visual image of the Manhattan Chinatown picture, with fantastic photography, MusikAnimal! Would it be possible for you to do the same justice for the Brooklyn Chinatown (the biggest one, in Sunset Park) and upload several images to Commons? Thank you! Best, Castncoot (talk) 21:53, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
- @Castncoot: Hey, thanks! I did actually make a trip to Sunset Park a while back, and have uploaded the few I have worth sharing. None are that great, but hopefully of some use. Cheers

Hi -- I was creating a stub article to satisfy a redlink, and noticed it had been deleted a couple of days ago. The reasons given were spam/copyvio, neither of which should be true for this version. Can you give it a look to make sure it's OK? Thanks, NapoliRoma (talk) 21:55, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
- Looks good! Thanks — MusikAnimal talk 22:12, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
