Nice work on your speedy tagging this morning

I should call it redirect repair, which is important work. Wikipedia's eyes are everywhere! Thanks for your efforts! BusterD (talk) 12:57, 8 February 2025 (UTC)

You're welcome! I plan to keep going since I'm guessing that my earlier run barely put a dent in the number of X3 redirects but it's always good to see that my efforts are appreciated. Nickps (talk) 14:22, 8 February 2025 (UTC)

G4 of redirects.

It comes up every month or two. See Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2025 April 7 although I should have actually said 'categories' so this needed to be reverted anyways. But yes, people G4 things that cannot be changed regularly, and it's been a problem for some months now. Jclemens (talk) 00:08, 9 April 2025 (UTC)

Well, your wording wouldn't change anything about that even if it said "categories" because, again, category pages are pages. I'm honestly not sure I understand what the bug in G4 you're talking about even is. G4 says that if the deletion rationale no longer applies then it can't be used. So any page that is correctly deleted per G4 would never survive XfD in the first place. If people are deleting categories even when the CFD rationale does not apply then that's not a bug in G4, that's just misuse of G4 and should be overturned on DRV. If such misuse is happening then you should probably raise the issue on WT:SD. Warudo (talk) 01:49, 9 April 2025 (UTC)

It's coming up in DRV, and a lot of contributors there don't see it the way you (and I, for that matter) do. You're probably right on next steps. Jclemens (talk) 06:38, 9 April 2025 (UTC)

Unichar

If you are feeling generous, would you modify the template so that it is possible to make dotted circle the default for cwith if no argument is given, since this is by far the most common use of it. For example {{unichar|0303|cwith=|nlink=}}

(I don't think there is an obvious default for suffix= yet.) 𝕁𝕄𝔽 (talk) 22:40, 13 May 2025 (UTC)

I changed the default from the non-breaking space to the dotted circle as you asked. I hope that doesn't break anything. As for |suffix=, there really isn't an obvious default because it's not really in use yet other than 42355 Typhon and a few instances of |cwith=◌◌ that I've corrected. I'm assuming that its use will remain so rare that we might not even need a default. Warudo (talk) 23:04, 13 May 2025 (UTC)
