OrphanReferenceFixer: Help on reversion

Hi there! I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. Recently, you reverted my fix to Comparison of smartphones.

If you did this because the references should be removed from the article, you have misunderstood the situation. Most likely, the article originally contained both <ref name="foo">...</ref> and one or more <ref name="foo"/> referring to it. Someone then removed the <ref name="foo">...</ref> but left the <ref name="foo"/>, which results in a big red error in the article. I replaced one of the remaining <ref name="foo"/> with a copy of the <ref name="foo">...</ref>; I did not re-insert the reference to where it was deleted, I just replaced one of the remaining instances. What you need to do to fix it is to make sure you remove all instances of the named reference so as to not leave any big red error.

If you reverted because I made an actual mistake, please be sure to also correct any reference errors in the page so I won't come back and make the same mistake again. Also, please post an error report at User talk:AnomieBOT so my operator can fix me! If the error is so urgent that I need to be stopped, also post a message at User:AnomieBOT/shutoff/OrphanReferenceFixer. Thanks!

Please explain your actions. Sincerely, USS New Jersey (talk) 11:43, 4 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Already done. It wouldn't stand a chance in a deletion debate. — billinghurst sDrewth 11:44, 4 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I think you are wrong. There is a bot which places the Template:Author assumed at old uploads. Why should the image not be from User:Motorhead?--USS New Jersey (talk) 11:49, 4 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Why is my filemove different to previous ones (File:2spark plug viewers.jpg, File:Lysholm screw rotors.jpg)?--USS New Jersey (talk) 11:51, 4 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
(ec) From my observations of DRs. If in a period of time it does survive, we can delete it then. Play it conservatively at this time. — billinghurst sDrewth 11:52, 4 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I'm regularly moving files to Commons with throwaway accounts during my worktime. Nobody ever had any objections, so I'm a little bit astonished now.--USS New Jersey (talk) 12:23, 4 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion of HDClone

Hello Billinghurst,

someone proposed the deletion of my newly added article, while I prematurely removed the deletion tag. Appearently reverting it to the state with that tag didn't prevent the sudden deletion of my article and didn't restore the 7 day deadline. Therefore I would like to ask you to restore the article and the 7 day deadline or limit its visibily to my user accout until the content fulfills the standard requirements. Regarding the notablility I would like you to consider the following references to the subject of my article over the last 13 years (of course this bare list won't be the missing content of my article).

Hardoy Butterfly Chair; Tripolina Chair

RaykN (talk) 15:10, 14 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Bilinghurst,

WEINBAUM has been greatly contributing to the transition of both the Butterfly and the Tripolina Chair into the 21st century. My controbutions are no promo stuff; without this company both pieces would have been forgotten. If you don't let me add content then please delete at least this link on the French company Airborne.

Thanks

RaykN

ipblock-exempt

Hi, Billinghurst.

I added some established angolan users from Portuguese projects to the global-ipblock-exempt group some days ago, due to the global blocks related to the Angola-Facebook case.

However, as you may know, this permission does not allow users to bypass local range blocks, and it seems there are some of these blocks implemented locally over here. They are complaining that they are usually caught up in an autoblock not intended for them, from time to time (example) RadiX∞ 12:12, 17 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

So could you kindly add the above mentioned users to the local ipblock-exempt group?

Thanks. RadiX∞ 12:12, 17 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
