I was surprised to see "CK's audio creator [1.0] Publisher: Commander Keane" at Special:OAuthManageMyGrants. I have never worked with OAuth and never heard of this tool. Maybe it is related to six years ago when I did many audio recordings with code at en:wikt:User:Commander Keane/Audio workflow. Perhaps I was messing around with OAuth at some stage. The naming "CK's audio creator" sounds too sophisticated for something I would come up with though. Is there a way to track down why or how this was added? Other items on the special page include "Wikimedia Commons Query Service [1.0]" and "Earwig's Copyvio Detector [1.0]", which make sense. Commander Keane (talk) 09:01, 11 March 2025 (UTC)

@Commander Keane Each item on the list at that page has the option to revoke your approval. My list doesn't mention CK's audio creator, so it can't be vital. I suggest you revoke the permission: the worst that can happen is that you will have to re-authorise it again if you needed it in future. If you want to delve further into that particular tool, you'll need to ask on the talk page of Help:OAuth at mediawiki. Mike Turnbull (talk) 12:19, 11 March 2025 (UTC)

I just reverted a page move for I believe the first time. Will someone please check if I forgot anything or messed it up? It was the article and the talk page: [1] Thank you in advance. Rockfang (talk) 10:12, 11 March 2025 (UTC)

Hi all, I'm working on a new draft, and am attempting to use Template:Infobox ship class overview for the lead. The template, for some reason, does not want to work. It displays it in a weird form as if it is text, and continues to try and kidnap (for lack of a better term) the lead text below it. I've done some poking around and am unable to find a solution, hence why I am asking here. Thank you in advance. -Emily (PhoenixCaelestis) (talk) 12:38, 11 March 2025 (UTC)

@PhoenixCaelestis: it seems {{Infobox ship class overview}} should be part of {{Infobox ship}} so I have added the latter and it seems to work. Some of what I have added is probably redundant. TSventon (talk) 12:51, 11 March 2025 (UTC)

{{Infobox ship}} is not supported by the WP:SHIPS community. What you added to OP's sandbox is the supported infobox form. Yeah, that form is peculiar, but is inherently flexible. There was a TfD to replace the wikitable/subtemplates with a single template that uses Module:Infobox. The result is that the templates languish in the TfD holding cell.

Thank you both, @TSventon and @Trappist the monk. I will update the parameters from here. Thanks for solving my issue! -Emily (PhoenixCaelestis) (talk) 14:16, 11 March 2025 (UTC)

Dear Helpdesk -

Some recent change (last few days) broke map overlays in Infoboxes. In 2020 I wrote an article that uses an overlay on a map in an Infobox to outline an area. As of a few days ago, the outline is rendered but is shifted to N of where it should be on the Infobox map. The same outline's position is correct on other maps in the article that aren't in an infobox. Who should I alert to report the problem? (There have been no changes to the map data since 2020.)

Hello, @Osoraku. In the first instance, bring it up at WP:VPT. ColinFine (talk) 18:40, 11 March 2025 (UTC)

I need help here. SergeWoodzing (talk) 19:26, 11 March 2025 (UTC)

Hi SergeWoodzing. I fixed it with {{Stack}}.[2] PrimeHunter (talk) 19:47, 11 March 2025 (UTC)

If it was mooted to rename a sub wikiproject, what effect would this have on articles that carry the former project name in the box at the head of their talk pages? I can't find any advice on this. Tony Holkham (Talk) 21:44, 11 March 2025 (UTC)

@Tony Holkham: The box is probably made by a WikiProject template which can be edited to display the new name on all the talk pages. We can say more if you name the sub project. It's best to be specifc in questions. PrimeHunter (talk) 22:38, 11 March 2025 (UTC)

@PrimeHunter - Thanks for that. I didn't name the sub project because it is only a suggestion so far, but it is the RNLI Task Force subProject of the Water Sports Project - see here Tony Holkham (Talk) 22:42, 11 March 2025 (UTC)

@Tony Holkham: {{WikiProject Water sports}} would be edited to produce something else. A new parameter name might be added instead of {{WikiProject Water sports|RNLI=yes}} but RNLI would probably be kept as an alias so talk pages which use it wouldn't have to be edited. PrimeHunter (talk) 23:17, 11 March 2025 (UTC)

@PrimeHunter - OK, thanks. One of us will come back to this query if there is support for the change. Cheers, Tony Holkham (Talk) 23:23, 11 March 2025 (UTC)

Not much activity, nominations open for multiple years. Anyone here noticed? RanDom 404 (talk) 22:14, 11 March 2025 (UTC)

If I had ever heard of Wikipedia:Articles for improvement, RanDom 404, then I later forgot about it. Now that I do notice it, I'm not at all surprised to learn that it's moribund. -- Hoary (talk) 01:32, 12 March 2025 (UTC)

Wouldn't this be basically all articles that are worth keeping anyway? It's hard to imagine there being articles that are perfect, articles for keeping mediocre, or articles for making worse. Musiconeologist (talk) 03:02, 12 March 2025 (UTC)

@RanDom 404 The basic idea is still being promoted by The Signpost, for example if you look at the latest edition (search for "improvement"), you'll find that they mention Jewish deli, followed by Kerosene. Mike Turnbull (talk) 12:21, 13 March 2025 (UTC)
