What is the proper course of action to take if you are bringing an issue up with an user about their edits and you suspect that they are using ChatGPT (or similar) to write their responses to you? (Not on ENWP. Just posting this here because it's the most likely place to get a response) Trade (talk) 00:05, 2 February 2025 (UTC)

"Not on ENWP": so, Trade, you're asking about how to behave on some unspecified website (but one that isn't en:WP)? When posting your question, you were shown a template that reads "This page is only for questions about using Wikipedia". In this context, this is shorthand for "This page is only for questions about using English-language (and not 'Simple English') Wikipedia". -- Hoary (talk) 02:26, 2 February 2025 (UTC)

I'm certain we already have our answer. 2601AC47 (talk·contribs·my rights) Isn't a IP anon 13:57, 2 February 2025 (UTC)

@Trade: Swot up on that website's dispute resolution processes. You coming here to ask is like going into a pizza parlour to lodge a formal complaint about a car dealership down the road. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v ^{threads critiques} 07:01, 2 February 2025 (UTC)

Posting the question on Wikipedia:Reference desk/Computing would be less wrong. —Tamfang (talk) 21:23, 4 February 2025 (UTC)

Previously, I wrote to request the coding for an inter-language link, i.e. to produce a broken link in an English article to a page that does not exist on the English server, but does exist in a foreign language Wikipedia server, which provides a superscript link to that foreign language article's page. Thank you for the help you all previously gave me. I now need to also know the coding for Inter-language links for the Italian and Spanish servers, and a URL to the help pages for those aforementioned inter-language links on those two language servers (Italian and Spanish). Can you assist me? Thanks in advance for your efforts. SMargan (talk) 03:20, 2 February 2025 (UTC)

SMargan I have checked and believe that is not possible. I will give links as urls as requested.

• https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Interlanguage_link en Wikipedia version
• https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q13606208 Wikidata item for Template:Interlanguage link, with a list of available language versions
• https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plantilla:Enlace_interling%C3%BC%C3%ADstico Spanish equivalent, which "allows you to place an internal link to a non-existent article (in red) and, only outside the main space, also a link to an equivalent article in another language version of Wikipedia (see Help:Interlanguage linking)" (via Google translate, bold in original)
• there is no equivalent in Italian it Wikipedia, probably because the community decided they did not want it

Thank you once again! You guys have been a great help. ... especially the page with a list of the other language's "Inter-language Link" articles. ;) SMargan (talk) 06:05, 2 February 2025 (UTC)

What happened to the "coauthors" parameter in "cite book"? what parameter to use to add a coauthors now? Thanks VihirLak007^hmu!/_duh. 17:03, 2 February 2025 (UTC

@VihirLak007: See the {{cite book}} documentation. For multiple authors, use first1= and last1=, then first2= and last2= and so on. -Arch dude (talk) 17:14, 2 February 2025 (UTC)

To answer the first question, |coauthors= was deprecated over a decade ago, and support removed for the parameter in 2017. Folly Mox (talk) 17:59, 2 February 2025 (UTC)

Apart from |first1=-|last1=, you can also use |author1=, |author2= an so on.––kemel49^{(connect)(contri)} 03:12, 3 February 2025 (UTC)
