categories

Hi Sam,
I saw that you - seemingly - tried to add categories to the see-also section within the wiki page (on 19/11 and 22/19). This is not possible this way. It is possible to add links to categories by prefix the word category by a colon (for example, [[:category:Interseptimal]] gives category:Interseptimal), but most category pages are not really informative ...

I don't remember adding anything to the see-also section? The only things I remember doing on those pages are adding the colour name for 19/11 and adding a hyperlink to the Godzilla page on 22/19. If I had done that and I don't remember, then I'm sorry and I'll make sure to remember that. || --CritDeathX (talk) 21:39, 18 April 2020 (UTC) ||

You are welcome. Here is one of the changes "you" made. To me it seems likely being an issue in the visual editor. --Xenwolf (talk) 07:37, 27 May 2020 (UTC)

Message ID

How did you find the message here? I tried the same yesterday for another article with no success. I was wondering if the original message IDs were present in the archive data and could be automatically provided through the view? --Xenwolf (talk) 06:35, 29 May 2020 (UTC)

PS: and of course, a big thanks for this kind of work. 😊 --Xenwolf (talk) 06:36, 29 May 2020 (UTC)

As I saw, the original message IDs are available. In the case I mentioned, you obviously did some archeology to correct the original references which seem indeed incorrect. --Xenwolf (talk) 11:58, 29 May 2020 (UTC)

I'd like to mention that the original message IDs seem to not correlate with the archive's IDs. For example, the original message on there was ...message/38721, while the one from the archive is ...topicId_105200.html#105202<code><nowiki>. Pain in the butt, but with a bit of patience, you can find the originals on the archive. I should maybe ask the person who made it to add a search function. <br> :: Also, thank you for the compliment. I have a gripe when it comes to dead links, so I try my best to edit the links when possible. My highest goal is to fix at least most of the links on [https://en.xen.wiki/w/Mailing_list_articles_by_Carl_Lumma the selected Yahoo posts by Carl Lumma]. It'll probably take forever. <br> :: --~~~~ == Notation terminology == Hi CritDeathX, <br> Some time ago, I made [[template:monzo]] for preventing people from typing <code style="white-space:nowrap"><nowiki><nowiki>|</nowiki>0 0 -1 1&gt; over and over again and to better show the intent. Now I remember that there is also the (seemingly) opposite notation <12 19 28 34| that could benefit from some support. But to make such a template, we I need the name of this notation. Do you know it?

Thanks in advance for your help.
