“ Throw on top of that the nuances involved when it comes to the transclusion of content to begin with and its even easier to see why something like this rather straight-forward PDF generation can consistently fail (if heading level rank detection and accounting doesn't begin completely after transclusion is "done", are we likely to get false "re-starts" in the accounting as one Page: to the next is tallied as individual works instead of the pieces of a single work? - sounds plausible to me) . ”

“ Gadgetizing something just means all of that raw-code type of nonsense has already been whittled down for you and all that is required is selecting or deselecting a checkbox more often than not.Go to your User: Preferences HERE, scroll down until you see section dealing with tools for the Page namespace and un-select the entry for Easy LST: Enable the easy section labeling syntax in the Page: namespace. ”

“ Every user who is really interested has long since found out what LST stands for (and probably at least some of the easyLST controversy) ; and those who were not interested... on the whole remain uninterested as of right now.Give praise for good work where it is due, and stop punishing a wholehearted attempt to publicise a legitimate change. Lets be honest, how many people would have noticed if it were not for the banner notice and this very discussion? ”

“ Now that Easy LST is a gadget itself rather than a choice to opt-out-of after the fact, nobody is forced to accept the resource "hit" unless they want to use it. More choice is always better and that is what we get with this change.
Recap for those technically retarded like myself:
BEFORE - Tick (enable) the user preference to turn off Easy LST AFTER - unTick (disable) the user preference to turn off Easy LST Everything else to be said (or already said) in this matter are just semantics. ”

“ This is a good project and we should not sabotage it by fighting amongst ourselves. There is so much to do here, you know, everyone can do or find something to do here without colliding with others. Let us work peacefully and in harmony. ”

“ I'm just a little frustrated not seeing a clear path forward. But I do want to sort through this and hopefully make it a little easier for the next 'pedian (or PDFian) ... I see you did a little experimenting of your own, did you learn anything useful? I did try your code, but it didn't seem to help. I'm stuck right now on two things: I haven't used phabricator yet, and need to learn it (you don't need to worry about that part) , and I'm not sure I yet have a clear enough understanding of what's going on to write a useful bug. ”

“ The earlier content refinements & PDF generation testing afterwards seem to soundly support that theory.
Its not all great of a leap to see how any operation depending upon the presence of a "minimum standard" in heading-level rank -to- outlining document structure can get befuddled by all that default 'auto-crap' being imposed on headings by the wiki mark-up or how that can "choke-off" bits & pieces at any given critical processing moment to ultimately produce failure in the end. ”

“ Ironically this is also how I felt when "easy LST" was first foisted upon us. That too was done without discussion; and we had no recourse, as no amount of community opinion can force an extension developer to roll back a code patch. Very frustrating. Hesperian 12:24, 22 December 2014 (UTC) Merry Christmas? Consider this the roll-back 5 years in the making (I not all that smart; just persistent) . The only thing that has changed is attention has been drawn to something that's been in effect for ~5 years and in the manner in which it now loads. ”

“ Please read his email in the mailing list January archives and please consider adding any broader achievements to the report in preparation at m:Wikisource Community User Group/2014 Report. We are a community of significant size in the Wikisource space, and we have led in many ways by the sheer fact of our number of contributors. There are many learnings that we can share with our interlanguage cousins, and there is more that we can do to advocate the value and benefit of the Wikisource community. ”

“ Apparently George was Bold but he has that right -- by the rule to "be bold". I don't know the politics behind it and for that I am glad just from reading the attacks and arguments here. The world is getting crazy and dangerous enough with killings and protests. ”

“ The new version shows lead images, better galleries and content from Wikidata. It also has many other new features. Programs and bots still can't read information about images on many wikis. You can see the list of wikis with the most files to fix. Wikipedia in Italian, Indonesian and Japanese language have the most files to fix. On the biggest wikis you should use bots. Bots can add information templates to groups of files. You can ask other tech users to help you. Problems
All JavaScript on Commons was broken for a few minutes on Tuesday. It was because of old code in the HotCat tool. ”

“ That blog post on 'why everything good-for-Wikipedia is not necessarily good (or even useful) for Wikisource et al.' is a message that really needs to get out there... and soon! All the current development crack (Media Viewer, Flow, Visual Editor to name a few) that folks are getting high on today on are completely useless for our purposes. -- George Orwell III (talk) 18:07, 22 January 2015 (UTC)

“ Thank you for your concern, could probably get away with a link to Adding Section Labels This should help clear confusion. --Rochefoucauld (talk) 13:13, 8 January 2015 (UTC) you can get away with wasting a lot of people’s time. show where you have a consensus for this banner; show where it is dismissable; show how it meets usage guidelines ; show where it is on the meta central notice schedule . you need to provide links on your banner that land on specific landing pages or sections, that do not astonish the user; have you read about the SciencesPo fiasco. ”

“ Announcements Proposals Switch header template foundation from table-based to division-based The proposal entails the replacement of the current Header template familiar to most with a structurally redesigned new Header template. Replacement is a needed first step in series of steps needed to properly address the long time deficiencies behind several issues as well as enhance our mobile device presence. ”

“ Example: The Army and Navy Hymnal/Catholic is the best I have come up with for these types of pages. Does anyone have a system that they find works for this? Is there a better way that people use? Should I just link to the subsections that immediately preceed and follow in the source? —Beleg Tâl (talk) 15:26, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
FWIW I had a similar, though simpler, situation here which another editor recommended that I follow the page order in the book for subsections, rather than the table of contents. ”

“ It is past time you reviewed the way you interact with people here. You are regularly dragging the tone of discussion down to the level of personal attack and it is bad for the project. Hesperian 01:03, 24 December 2014 (UTC) To corroborate: I am a reasonably new user, and I use this Easy LST all the time, but I didn't know it was called that, and had to do quite a bit of searching to figure out what this announcement and discussion were about. ”

“ No reason at all that I should be listed as a contributor. So...I am feeling satisfied to make some progress...but also, I am starting to despair that PDF generation might be practical on Wikisource, which seems like a pretty major shortcoming. Your thoughts, as always, would be most welcome. -Pete (talk) 06:00, 22 January 2015 (UTC)

“ Just to sum up (for the benefit of others who read this) : people should avoid working on works with sidenotes, especially complicated ones, because there are known issues in the ProofreadPage extension and the dynamic layouts (and probably WikiMedia's parser too) which will break whatever workarounds you come up with when they get fixed. —Beleg Tâl (talk) 12:32, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
facebook.com/Wikisource Any of you guys knows who's the person behind facebook.com/Wikisource? Somebody did a good faith share of Time (Shelley) , but at that time the mentioned text unit wasn't with originals. ”
