Happy Holidays! 😊

...and a Happy New Year 2024!

Hi Ladsgroup, I think I'll be at Wikimania 2024 in Poland! Not entirely sure about WikiCon yet, as the location hasn't been decided on yet and I'm probably happy with one Wikipedia convention per year. But Wikimania likely won't be as close to me as in 2024 in the next years, so I'll probably take that opportunity. I guess in a hundred years or so, it will come back to Frankfurt where it once started... Ceterum censeo T341626 esse delendam ~ ToBeFree (talk) 13:58, 24 December 2023 (UTC)

Hi! Thank you and happy holidays to you too. I hope you have a great year ahead full of joy and happiness. I'm not sure about wikicon either but I will be in Wikimania and looking forward to meeting you too! (note that 2026 will be in Paris and it's not that far, there are direct trains from Koln and Frankfurt)

I'm planning to work on that and support for regex and bypass during the holidays. Fingers crossed. Ladsgroup^overleg 21:29, 24 December 2023 (UTC)

mediawiki.cookie

You should probably go back through all the replacements you made recently, it looks like you made a lot of errors. For one, mw.cookie by default applies a prefix to all cookies while jquery.cookie does not, leading to whatever was saved in the cookies being "forgotten" due to the name change. For another, passing a number for expires to jquery.cookie sets the time in days, while for mw.cookie it sets the time in seconds, leading cookies to expire far sooner than intended. Also in spot checking I saw one case where you used mw.cookie.get rather than mw.cookie.set. Anomie⚔ 22:53, 12 January 2024 (UTC)

Thanks, I'll go through them. For the first issue, that's okay IMO. The prefix is how it should be and there is no expectation of persistence in cookies (browsers flush them all the time). For the rest, I check and fix them Ladsgroup^overleg 12:47, 13 January 2024 (UTC)

IMO it was annoying when my script suddenly reset to defaults after years of keeping the settings it stores in a cookie. People using scripts that set long-lived cookies likely do not expect browsers to randomly delete them. Anomie⚔ 13:17, 13 January 2024 (UTC)

Years? Chrome actively doesn't have cookie max age more than 400 days [1] and firefox basically clears them every couple of weeks ([2] and [3]) Ladsgroup^overleg 13:21, 13 January 2024 (UTC)

Yes, years. None of your links seem relevant. Anomie⚔ 20:20, 13 January 2024 (UTC)

My scripts don't work any more

Hi, you've edited my vector space recently. In the past week none of the maintenance script buttons have appeared at the right margin when I hit "edit". So my WP activity has stopped. I've reverted back to a bit over a week ago, but it still doesn't work.

I'm not technically minded.

I'm also contacting User_talk:Amorymeltzer, who has also been editing there, and User:Ohconfucius, who wrote most of the composite script. Tony (talk) 07:58, 26 May 2024 (UTC)

@Tony1 Hi, what you did is not going to fix your issue and if anything, it's going to make things worse. Maybe use mw:Help:Locating_broken_scripts to figure out what's broken? Ladsgroup^overleg 12:31, 27 May 2024 (UTC)

HI! I'm Nicholas and I'm an Italian user! I would like to ask you for information, if you can: I haven't been able to access my edicounter for a couple of days, and it refers me to this... is it under maintenance by any chance? I thank you in advance! Nicholas Gemini (talk) 16:08, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

@Nicholas Gemini Hi, I don't even remember why I'm mentioned there as a maintainer, I don't maintain that tool and have no idea how it works or how it can be fixed. You need to talk to Cyberpower. Sorry. Ladsgroup^overleg 12:48, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

@Ladsgroup I'm sorry for the trouble! Thanks anyway! Nicholas Gemini (talk) 15:22, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
