This site shows five automated high-level metrics where you can see the overall health and performance of our wikis' technical environment. It also contains manually-written updates for widespread incidents, which are written as quickly as the engineers are able to do so while also fixing the actual problem. The site is separated from our production infrastructure and hosted by an external service, so that it can be accessed even if the wikis are briefly unavailable. You can read more about this project.

Templat:FlagIOC/FlagIOC2

Hello! Can you do something about the Template:FlagIOC/FlagIOC2 regarding the historical flags in that template. Because I see that many of the historical flags don't match with the country alias module. E.g. Hong Kong, Canada, Vietnam, India and Malaya. The Hong Kong flag should match with what they used during the 1954 Asian Games and the Canadian flag should match with what they used during the 1924 Winter Olympics. India's flag should match with what they used in 1934, the Vietnamese flag should match with what they used in 1973 and the Malaysian flag should match with the one they used in 1961. Yours sincerely, Sondre 88.88.4.178 21:11, 11 Jun 2022 (UTC)

Municipalities of Spain

Hi! I'm sorry I don't speak Malay. We have a project here in Spain we call "No Municipality in Spain without a Picture". For some six or seven years, we have been taking pictures of places in Spain. We are less than 40 municipalities short of our target. Right now, you can find pictures in Wikimedia Commons for all municipalities in Spain except for Vegaviana (Cáceres) and a couple of places in Huelva province, all of which will have pictures soon, as thay have already been taken; and twenty-odd places in Salamanca province that we expect to do next autumn.

Paymogo was one of the really difficult ones, as it is far away from all major cities and routes.

So you can put pictures to all articles about Spanish municipalities! B25es (bincang) 06:49, 12 Jun 2022 (UTC)

Templat:FlagIOC/FlagIOC2

Hello! Can you take a look in to the Template:FlagIOC/FlagIOC2 concerning the historical flags that are in the template?. Because I see that they're not in line with the years that the competition was held. For example the flag of Hong Kong at the 1954 Asian Games and the Flag of Canada at the 1924 Winter Olympics. The flags should match with the years that the competition was held. And also the historical flags of India, Vietnam and Malaya are not in line with the years they should be in. See what you can do about that. Yours sincerely, Sondre 88.88.4.178 09:48, 12 Jun 2022 (UTC)

Templat:FlagIOC/FlagIOC2

Hello! Can you please take a look into the Template:FlagIOC/FlagIOC2. Because I see that the historical flags of Hong Kong and Canada needs to be synchronise in contrary with the year that competition was held for example Hong Kong's flag at the 1954 Asian Games and the Canadian flag at the 1924 Winter Olympics. To clarify this the flags needs to be synchronised with the country alias module. Yours sincerely, Sondre 88.88.4.178 15:39, 16 Jun 2022 (UTC)

Templat:FlagIOC/FlagIOC2

Hello! If you should synchronise the template FlagIOC/FlagIOC2 template correctly for the historical flags then you should look how words are arranged I think you use event name, year and format instead of year, event name and format as on English pages. I give you more time to look at it comprehensively. Malaysian words are arranged different I think the main problem lays there. There is nothing wrong with the Template:Country flag IOC alias or something in that order. Yours sincerely, Sondre 88.88.4.178 18:41, 16 Jun 2022 (UTC)

Templat:FlagIOC/FlagIOC2

Hello! Can you take a look into the Templat:FlagIOC/FlagIOC2 and try to synchronise the historical flags there correctly. I think the main problem is how the words are arranged in your language you use <Event name> and <year> format opposed to the English <year> and <event name> format. I'll give you the time to take a more comprehensive look in to it. Yours sincerely, Sondre 88.88.4.178 16:14, 17 Jun 2022 (UTC)

Templat:Infobox Country Olympics

Hello! Can you do something regarding the Infobox Country Olympics template so it can be put in the Infobox Country at games template. I think it is only enough with one template for countries at championships and as such. Yours sincerely, Sondre 88.88.4.178 11:30, 18 Jun 2022 (UTC)

FlagIOC template

Hello! Is it possible for you to synchronise the FlagIOC/FlagIOC2 template. The historical flags needs to much the years which the competitions was held including the flag of Hong Kong at the 1954 Asian Games and the Flag of Canada at the 1924 Winter Olympics and also the historical flags of Vietnam in 1973 and Malaya in 1961. I think the problem here lies on the way Malay words are arranged i think you use the <event name> and <year> formats opposed to <year> and <event name> format as they have on the English pages. I will give you all the time that you want. I don't think the problem lie in the country alias module and or Country flag IOC alias templates they are functioning properly. Yours sincerely, Sondre 88.88.4.178 21:01, 18 Jun 2022 (UTC)

FlagIOC2team template

Hello! Can you do something the FlagIOC2team template. So the historical flags can be synchronised correctly so the years and event name can come in the right order. Yours sincerely, Sondre 88.88.4.178 13:25, 19 Jun 2022 (UTC)

Wikipedia translation of the week: 2022-25

The winner this Translation of the week is en:Statehood Day (Slovenia) (sl:Dan državnosti) Please be bold and help translate this article! Statehood Day (Slovene: Dan državnosti) is a holiday that occurs on every 25 June in Slovenia to commemorate the country's declaration of independence from Yugoslavia in 1991. Although the formal declaration of independence did not come until 26 June 1991, Statehood Day is considered to be 25 June since that was the date on which the initial acts regarding independence were passed and Slovenia became independent (Please update the interwiki links on Wikidata of your language version of the article after each week's translation is finished so that all languages are linked to each other.)

FlagIOC Template

Hello! Is it possible for you to do something regarding the historical flags in the FlagIOC/FlagIOC2 templates and how they are synchronized?. I think the main reason for the problem is how Malaysian words are arranged you use <event name> and <year> opposed to <year> and <event name> as on English pages. I will give you all that time you need to sort out these errors and when you have access to the laptop then it is much easier to solve. Yours sincerely, Sondre 193.161.216.9 20:23, 20 Jun 2022 (UTC)

Modul:Country alias

Hello! Can you correYct the Country alias module again. You must use your own language according to the competitions and not English notes. You use <event name> and <year> which is appropiate to your language terms. It should be di Sukan Olimpik Musim Panas and so forth. And year should be Sukan Olimpik Musim Panas 2004. Template:FlagIOC should be synchronized properly with the years of the competitions and not be mixed up with the wrong language. Yours sincerely, Sondre 193.161.216.9 20:18, 23 Jun 2022 (UTC)

FlagIOC template

Hello! Can you do something regarding the Country alias module?. The wording creates more confusion Malay words are arranged differently. But I think when you use old templates then things functions badly. The historical flags must be synchronized correctly. The main problem is that the Country flag IOC alias templates are old. See what you can do regarding the module and the historical flags in a whole. Yours sincerely, Sondre 193.161.216.9 09:30, 24 Jun 2022 (UTC)

FlagIOC template

Hello! I think tUhe FlagIOC template needs a change to be more compliant with your language. The usage fields needs to be set up in your language and correctly translated. You can't have things in English when it is your language that will only create confusions and misunderstandings. See what you can do regarding the country alias module and also the historical flags in the example section. Yours sincerely, Sondre 09:41, 24 Jun 2022 (UTC) 193.161.216.9 09:41, 24 Jun 2022 (UTC)

Sandbox for the Module Country alias and Module:Country alias/data

Hello! Can you create a sandbox regarding the country alias and country alias/data. That tell you how you should use the module more fluently. Also about the fields and parameters and as such. Yours sincerely, Sondre 193.161.216.9 20:16, 24 Jun 2022 (UTC)
