Question on Prefixes Bug(?) on Lower Silesian Wikipedia main page

[edit source]

Hello, I am InNerdsWeTrust, an editor of Lower Silesian Test Wikipedia (Wp/sli). Recently, I have tried to edit the main page, but this, I thought, was not possible, as whenever I edited something in the source code (and also when I deleted it immediately), suddenly, all Templates and links on the main page would mysteriously disappear and be replaced by red links like this. I thought all hope in editing the main page was lost - until today.

Today I discovered a workaround, albeit a costly one. I proceeded to manually add the prefix Wp/sli/ to every link/template that became defunct due to the issue mentioned before. I then published my edit. When I came back to the incubator a few hours later, I expected to see the issue solved, but oh boy, my edit did not even appear in the version history! I immediately got back to work editing the main page and meticulously redid my edits from before and even changed a few minor words that were still in Standard German. Just as a safety precaution, I then clicked on "Edit Source" once again and to my surprise - the prefixes I added were gone, but the minor edits that I made for translation were still there! I was stunned. The Incubator seemingly has a weird system where it deletes the prefixes on the main page, but the links still work somehow. As I have virtually no idea how this issue can be resolved, I decided to ask in the Community Portal and alas, this is where we are.

If somebody could help fix this or kindly explain this to me that this is intended, that would be greatly appreciated! InNerdsWeTrust (talk) 16:12, 7 October 2025 (UTC)Reply

InNerdsWeTrust I’m not sure if I understood your problem correctly, but the source editor on the Incubator automatically hides all prefixes in its interface so that editors aren’t bothered by them while editing. However, these prefixes still exist in the actual source code of the page, which ensures that links to templates and pages continue to work properly. So, you can keep editing your source code without worrying about this. Hope that answers your question! --ZacharyB (talk) 02:48, 12 October 2025 (UTC)Reply
My concern was (and is) that when I edit the source code on the main page, there are no sections where you find prefixes. E.g.:
The main page does NOT have [[Wp/sli/example|example]], instead it directly writes [[example]], which is WITHOUT a prefix. Somehow this link works in the preview, but if I delete a single letter somewhere in the source code (which doesn’t have to be a link), the preview of the source code suddenly turns into a preview of the unprefixed links, i.e. [[example]]: The preview ends up having red links for everything. InNerdsWeTrust (talk) 07:19, 12 October 2025 (UTC)Reply
@InNerdsWeTrust: Hi! I'm the one who made the gadget that shows/hides the prefixes. I have tried to make it work across all browsers, editors (there are so many editors) and skins, but it's hard to safeguard against everything.
The top complaint about the Incubator over the years has been that it is so difficult to edit, because users had to constantly remember to add prefixes everywhere – to all links, templates, categories, you name it. So with the gadget, which is turned on for everyone by default, that should mostly be a thing of the past.
Now, for previews, there are at least five ways of previewing pages that I'm aware of (it's kinda ridiculous to be honest):
  • The most common one, I believe, is using what's called the 2010 wikitext editor, the one that looks like this. Within it, there are three ways to preview pages, depending on your settings:
    1. When you click the preview button next to the save button, and it reloads the page with your preview (this is the default setting)
    2. When you click the preview button, and the preview appears without a reload (if you activated the "Show preview without reloading the page" option in your settings)
    3. When you click use the realtime preview button, which appears next to the "search" button in the screenshot I linked above.
  • Another one is when you use the 2017 wikitext editor, a.k.a. wikitext within VisualEditor. To preview there, you need to press the "Publish" button first, then click the "Preview" button below the edit summary field.
  • The final one is the wikitext editor in the mobile version, where you make your edits, then click the right arrow in the top of the screen to preview.
So, the question is: Which one of this were you using when you encountered this problem? And which browser do you use? Jon Harald Søby (talk) 21:49, 24 October 2025 (UTC)Reply
I am talking about the 2010 Wikitext Editor, I think. Well, turns out that even though the preview does not work, as all the prefixes in the Wikitext on the left are hidden, when I click publish, the prefixes seem to be automatically added to the Wikitext and the result looks just like intended (just like the preview, if the prefixes were in the source code during the editing process) - but if you want an accurate preview, you have to manually add all the prefixes into the source code, which I do find quite annoying.
In other words: The problem kinda solved itself already, BUT you cannot get an accurate preview of whatever you are doing unless you (annoyingly) add all the prefixes into the Wikitext. If this could be fixed, so that the preview shows what the page would look like with the hidden prefixes during the editing process, that would be great.
Thank you in advance! InNerdsWeTrust (talk) 06:07, 25 October 2025 (UTC)Reply
@InNerdsWeTrust: All that is by design. The point is to try to make test wikis work as similarly to normal wikis within the context that we have.
Anyways: In the edit toolbar, there is a field with the test wiki's prefix, that should say Wp/sli. When you click that and then click the "eye" icon, you can see what will happen when the prefixes are added and removed. Jon Harald Søby (talk) 09:43, 25 October 2025 (UTC)Reply
Alright! Thank you so much! InNerdsWeTrust (talk) 07:00, 26 October 2025 (UTC)Reply

Devanagari Numerals issue on Magahi Wikipedia

[edit source]

Hello, many pages on Magahi Wikipedia (Wp/mag), like Wp/mag/श्रीगङ्गानगर (in the infobox), are throwing error, because of automatic conversion of numbers to Devanagari Numerals.

For example, {{CURRENTYEAR}} gives: २०२५ (Devanagari for 2025) on Wp/mag. This is causing error in expression, e.g., {{#ifexpr:{{CURRENTMONTH}}<2}} gives "Expression error: Unrecognized punctuation character "१"." as it doesn't accept Devanagari.

Is there any setting for choosing the numerals, as the same is happening on Wt/mag? Thank you for your attention! - ऐक्टिवेटेड् (talk) 19:48, 15 October 2025 (UTC)Reply

@ऐक्टिवेटेड्: When using such magic words on wikis that use other numbers than English, there are a few options, all documented in mw:Help:Magic words. For the ones pertaining to statistics, such as {{NUMBEROFPAGES}}, you can use a flag or parameter, like this: {{NUMBEROFPAGES:R}}. For the ones that take a parameter, like {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Category name}}, you use |R at the end instead: {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Category name|R}}.
For the date and time ones, however, that technique doesn't work. For those, you can instead use {{formatnum:{{CURRENTYEAR}}|R}}. For more advanced uses, you can also check out the #time parser function, where you can specify the year with an xn flag: {{#time:xnY}} should produce 2025 in the Magahi Wikipedia, while the "normal" {{#time:Y}} would produce २०२५.
Hope that helps! Let me know if you need any help. Jon Harald Søby (talk) 21:29, 24 October 2025 (UTC)Reply
@Jon Harald Søby Thank you so much. The error is fixed.
One more doubt: Why is Devanagari numerals set for this wiki? Is it because the project is using Devanagari script? I could not find any setting for this. - ऐक्टिवेटेड् (talk) 19:47, 28 October 2025 (UTC)Reply
