De {{Capsa hominis Vicidata}}

Vicidatis semper semperque auctis, haec capsa sub rubricis inferioribus "Officium" et "Laurae" res plurimas praebere solet linguis barbaris scriptas, aegre utilibus. Ergo ad interim has rubricas celavi. (Talem rem et in aliis capsis informationis facere possumus.) Si haec mutatio tibi displiceat, s.t.p. placita tua hic inscribe!

Defaultsort vs. Lifetime

Why do contributors keep using the Defaultsort formula? The Lifetime formula is more efficient, saving bytes by compressing the dating and automatically specifying Mulieres or Viri as appropriate (without the need for coded categorization of the distinction)? Efficiency in coding is generally held to be a virtue. IacobusAmor (disputatio) 13:20, 14 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

"Mulieres" and "Viri" are added because of the interwiki link at Wikidata, not because of these magic words. But I quite agree with you that LIFETIME is briefer. Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 13:55, 16 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

In fact, {{Lifetime}} (like {{Capsa hominis Vicidata}} and a few more templates) automatically adds the page to Categoria:Viri or Categoria:Mulieres according to the person's gender specified at the Wikidata item. Where neither of these templates is used (and where just perhaps the magic word DEFAULTSORT is used), neither Categoria:Viri or Categoria:Mulieres will be added automatically. So, {{Lifetime}} may be preferable to DEFAULTSORT. Greetings, --UV (disputatio) 22:42, 16 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

Gratias ago: id non intellegi, quia semper, novam paginam biographicam creans, {{Capsa hominis Vicidata}} ad caput et {{Fontes biographici}} sub nexibus externis insero. {{Lifetime}} uti incipio. Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 10:00, 17 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

De nova categoria instituenda

Mea quidem sententia oportet novam categoriam instituere quae omnes paginas ad jus pertinentes colligat et hac de causa nominetur "ius". Placentinus (disputatio) 08:30, 16 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

Usque adhuc, si recte observavi, nostra Categoria:Iurisprudentia idem opus perficit quam aliorum en:Category:Law et fr:Catégorie:Droit [etc.]. Ergo quid facere oportet --

1. Movere Categoria:Iurisprudentia ad Categoria:Ius?
2. novam categoriam Categoria:Ius creare, quae loco categoriae hodiernae "Iurisprudentiae" ad categorias barbaras "Law" et "Droit" [etc.] adnectanda erit?
3. alia res?? Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 13:44, 16 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

Probum consilium movere Categoria:Iurisprudentia ad Categoria:Ius mihi videtur. Placetne? Placentinus (disputatio) 14:43, 16 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

In wikipaedia Anglica, "Jurisprudence" est subcategoria categoriae "Law," quae revera nos monet: "Pages in this category should be moved to subcategories where applicable." Ergo ut videtur, subcategoria "Iurisprudentia" non delenda est, et categoria "Ius" creanda est. IacobusAmor (disputatio) 00:24, 17 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

Recte quidem mones! Quomodo creantur categoriae? Quaeso ut mihi ignoscatis, nam numeror adhuc inter homines quos Angli vulgo vocitant "noobs" (Heri tantum inveni instrumentum "HotCat"...). Placentinus (disputatio) 06:54, 17 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

Сategoriae eodem modo creantur, quo omnes paginae; categoriae superiores in pagina categoriae scribendae sunt. — Sed Categoria:Iurisprudentia nostra per Vicidata cum en:Category:Law Anglica coniuncta est, non cum “Jurisprudence”. (Ipse nescio, an movenda sit.) Demetrius Talpa (disputatio) 09:17, 17 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

Si consentimus categoriam "Iurisprudentia" novo nomine "Ius" baptizare, deinde novam subcategoriam "Iurisprudentia" creare, deinde aliquas paginas in novam subcategoriam singultim movere, facile erit, hoc modo:

1. categoriam nostram "Iurisprudentia" e Vicidatis pro tempore delere;
2. postulare apud amicum @UV: (Vicipaedia:Automata/Petitiones de categoriis movendis hic) categoriam renominare omnesque paginas subcategoriasque, quae insunt, novo categoriae nomine munire;
3. categoriam renominatam iterum in Vicidata eodem loco inserere;
4. novam categoriam "Iurisprudentia" creare et cum linguis barbaris (Jurisprudence etc.) apud Vicidata coniungere;
5. paginas (et fortasse subcategorias) nostras idoneas in hanc novam categoriam singultim matriculare.

An consentimus omnes? Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 09:54, 17 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

Non sum sic peritus de his disciplinis ut sententiam meam habeam (tantummodo scio vocabulum “iuris” esse antiquius vocabulo “iurisprudentiae”), sed si categoriam creamus credo motiones esse gerendas quamque paginam ponderando, quia aliquae commentationes ambas categorias requirere possint. --Grufo (disputatio) 17:06, 17 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

Recte dicis, Grufo: vide iam meam rubricam #5 supra. Categoria mota, nova categoria creata, certe licet paginas aut una categoria, aut binis categoriis, munire.

Nemine contradicente, categoriam "Iurisprudentia" ad "Ius" ope UV et UVbot movendam suadebo. Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 14:49, 18 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

Categoriam movi. --UV (disputatio) 22:59, 18 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

Categoriam novam "Categoria:Iurisprudentia" creavi tamquam subcategoria categoriae Categoria:Ius". Denuo aliis licet ad pedem paginarum idonearum "Categoria:Iurisprudentia" inscribere. Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 14:29, 19 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

De "nexu linguarum"

Addere "nexum linguarum" nequeo paginae cui index est Danaë imbrem aureum accipit (Titianus), quia – pro dolor! – mihi non licet inceptum exsequi: «You do not have the permissions needed to carry out this action.»

Placentinus (disputatio) 19:49, 17 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

@Grufo: nonne tu eandem obstructionem passus es? An solutionem repperisti?

@Placentinus: ad interim potes nexum ad pedem singulae paginae barbarae subscribere (e.g. Anglicae aut Francogallicae aut Italianae), sic:

[[la:Danaë imbrem aureum accipit (Titianus)]]

Una pagina ita adnectata, automata (bots) nexum Vicidata inserere solent. Tempta! Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 20:17, 17 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

Gratias ago Demetrio Talpae qui quaestionem solvit. Placentinus (disputatio) 21:07, 17 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

Gaudeo! Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 21:53, 17 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

@Andrew Oportet 50 recensiones apud Vicidata habere ad nulli obstructioni occurrendum, at usores sine 50 recensionibus concessionem specialem petere possunt. Ego concessionem specialem petivi quae recusata est, quia ipsa petitio fuit mea quinquagensima recensio. --Grufo (disputatio) 23:05, 17 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

Novae formulae de lemmate principi

Novas formulas {{Res}}, {{Res typis italicis}} (compendio: {{ires}}), {{Subres}} et {{Res tacita}} (compendio: {{tres}}) habemus ad lemma princeps commentationum scribendum. E.g.

• {{res|Ars coquinaria}} est... (in loco scriptionis '''Ars coquinaria''' est...)
• {{ires|In vino veritas}} est... (in loco scriptionis '''''In vino veritas''''' est...)
• {{subres|Apparatus computatralis}} est... (in loco scriptionis ''Apparatus computatralis'' est...)
• vel {{tres|(instrumentum) '''computatorium'''}}... (in loco scriptionis vel (instrumentum) '''computatorium'''...)

Duae sunt commoditates his formulis utendi:

1. Cum paginam recenseamus lemma princeps e vicitextu melius eminet
2. Hae formulae notam HTML <dfn>...</dfn> adhibent (de hac vide hic), quam robota interretialia et “screen readers” melius intellegere possunt

Nota bene: Hae formulae non sunt in locum '''...''', '''''...''''' et ''...'' in aliis casibus substituendae, sed sunt adhibendae in casu lemmatis principis tantum.

Hoc dicto, usus harum formularum est voluntarius et semper formam veterem scribere possumus. --Grufo (disputatio) 18:11, 20 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

Gratias ago propter explicationem, @Grufo:. Ratio creationis {{Subres}} nescio. Nonne lemmata semper litteris fortibus scribimus? Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 18:45, 20 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

@Andrew: Vide hanc recensionem meam, ubi pluribus harum formularum utor. --Grufo (disputatio) 19:27, 20 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

P.S. Formulam {{Res tacita}} quoque nunc creavi. --Grufo (disputatio) 19:28, 20 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

Hmm, hoc in exemplo neque qua lege Apparatus computatorius litteris italicis scribatur scio, neque ad quem usum "(instrumentum) computatorium" in formulam includatur! Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 19:47, 20 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

Fortasse exemplum non est clarum. {{Subres}} est cum lemmate principi cuiusdam partis vel capituli paginae adhibenda (nonne est nostra norma typis italicis haec lemmata scribere?). E.g.

{{res|Lemma}} est bla bla bla ...

== De sublemmate 1 ==
{{subres|Sublemma 1}} est bla bla bla bla...

== De sublemmate 2 ==
{{subres|Sublemma 2}} est bla bla bla bla...

Ergo rare adhibebitur…

De {{Res tacita}}: Formulam “screen readers” et robota tantum credo adiuvare (at rare quoque adhibebamus). --Grufo (disputatio) 19:59, 20 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

Gratias: intellego. Dicis: "nonne est nostra norma typis italicis haec lemmata scribere?" Nescio an regulam habuimus. Incertus sum, an tales locutiones re vera "lemmata" sunt eadem lege qua tituli paginae Vicipaedicae ... sed de occasione rara loquimur et de re minoris momenti :) Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 20:58, 20 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

Neque ego scio. At quadam formula pro his casibus uti ({{Subres}}) nos sinit typos ubiqui mutare cum regulam Vicipaedianam de “sublemmatibus” inveniamus. --Grufo (disputatio) 21:06, 20 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

Recte dicis! Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 21:37, 20 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

@Andrew: Nunc formula {{Subres}} in nova pagina “Sagittarius A” usus sum. Quomodo tibi videtur? --Grufo (disputatio) 22:44, 20 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

Optime. Exemplum perutile. Experimentum temptavi, quod tibi aut mutare aut revertere licet, formulis {{qc}} et {{ec}} utens. Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 10:00, 21 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

Rem similem feci in pagina iam a me incepta Sazerac. An melius est, sicut hoc casu feci, non vocabula in textu sed rubricas respectivas internectare? Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 10:15, 21 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

At nonne est hic usus enormis formularum {{qc}} et {{ec}}, quae ad membra bibliographiae nectenda sunt adhibendae? Typis ignoratis (si typos graves praeferimus formulam mutare possumus), haec recensio ostendit quemadmodum formula {{Subres}} adhiberi possit ad nexus per argumentum |ancora= creandos (talis recensio corrigenda est, quia et “Sagittarius A orientalis” et “Sagittarius A occidentalis” iam sunt nomina capitum et ergo iam nomina quoque ancorarum). «An melius est, sicut hoc casu feci, non vocabula in textu sed rubricas respectivas internectare?»: Ita, melius est capita et non lemmata nectere! (disputatio) 11:09, 21 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

De sublemmatibus. Vicipaedia Anglica sublemmatibus typos graves adsignat:

Terms which redirect to an article or section are commonly bolded when they appear in the first couple of paragraphs of the lead section, or at the beginning of another section (for example, subtopics treated in their own sections or alternative names for the main topic – see § Article title terms, above).

– Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Text formatting § Other uses

Idcirco apud paginam “Sagittarius A” formulam {{Res}} in locum formulae {{Subres}} substitui, quia et Sagittarius A orientalis et Sagittarius A occidentalis sua capitula habent. Sed in pagina “Computatrum” credo Apparatum computatralem typis italicis scribendum esse (per formulam {{Subres}}), quia capitulo suo caret. Sed revera hoc ad rem minoris momenti attinet. --Grufo (disputatio) 00:29, 22 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

"Reference Tooltips" vs. "Reference Previews"

Here on la.wikipedia, we are currently using a gadget that is called "Reference Tooltips". This gadget is useful in that it adds visual tooltips and highlights to footnotes and references. For details please see Vicipaedia:Taberna/Tabularium 33#De nexibus intra paginam ad bibliographiam iunctis.

The kind programmers that constantly work on improving the MediaWiki software and the Wikimedia wikis are thinking about generally replacing "Reference Tooltips" with a similar product, "Reference Previews", see Vicipaedia:Nuntii Technici#A new feature for previewing references on your wiki. The advantage in doing this is that "Reference Previews" would be managed centrally for all Wikimedia wikis, while our "Reference Tooltips" currently needs to be maintained by ourselves. There is, however a disadvantage, because "Reference Previews" currently does not yet feature all the capabilities of "Reference Previews". I have voiced my concern at meta:Talk:WMDE Technical Wishes/ReferencePreviews#Reference Previews to become the default for previewing references on more wikis. Let us see how the kind programmers will react … Greetings, --UV (disputatio) 00:09, 24 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

Hi UV. I do not know all the details, all I can say is that I appreciate the current change of background color during mouse hover. I even imitated the effect in the {{Ancora tacita}} template, but only after click.

On that note I have a question. Here are four different ways of creating anchors,

# <span id="foobar1">Lorem ipsum</span> {{an|foobar1}}
# <span id="CITEREFfoobar1">Lorem ipsum</span> {{an|CITEREFfoobar1}}
# {{Ancora|foobar2|Lorem ipsum}} {{an|foobar2}}
# {{Ancora|CITEREFfoobar2|Lorem ipsum}} {{an|CITEREFfoobar2}}

which produce:

1. Lorem ipsum foobar1
2. Lorem ipsum CITEREFfoobar1
3. Lorem ipsum foobar2
4. Lorem ipsum CITEREFfoobar2

As you can see, when you hover above “foobar1” and “foobar2” nothing happens. Instead, when you hover above “CITEREFfoobar1” and “CITEREFfoobar2” the background color changes. Furthermore, if you click on “foobar1” and “CITEREFfoobar1” nothing else happens (besides the page reaching the anchor), but when you click on “foobar2” and “CITEREFfoobar2” instead the background color of the nearby “Lorem ipsum” changes for some seconds. So my question is: How can I make the behavior of “CITEREFfoobar2” the standard behavior of {{Ancora tacita}} and other similar templates? Can it be done? --Grufo (disputatio) 00:43, 24 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

The background color change on click for some seconds, as you know, is the result of Formula:Ancora tacita/style.css. The background color change on hover is the result of "Reference Tooltips", which might be about to be replaced with "Reference Previews". I do not think that there is an easy way to add this behaviour to {{Ancora tacita}}. --UV (disputatio) 23:44, 24 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

I thought so… Well, nothing too tragic after all! --Grufo (disputatio) 03:11, 25 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

This is interesting news, @UV:. It was very kind of you to create the templates we currently have for linking references displaying tooltips, and in theory it will be still better if the display capability can be centrally maintained for the future. We'll have to see how the programmers respond to your concerns. Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 09:16, 24 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

I see that the response was not promising, @UV: it's nice that one of them is a Latin lover, but they are interested in their new tasks, not in our problem. Do you have an opinion about what we should do?

My own quick reaction is, let's not change to Reference previews just yet, but only change later if needed to ensure central maintenance. (a) Is this choice possible, (b) is it advisable, (c) would we already be losing some advantages from Reference Previews? You probably understand the constraints better than I do, UV.

I think Spanish and English wikis are currently on Reference tooltips, as we are, and it seems to work well. I think German and French wikis are on Reference previews. On fr:Winston Churchill (for an example) Reference previews does not adapt fully to the complex and inconsistent footnoting): worse, if I go to "preferences - gadgets" and choose Reference tooltips instead, I then get no tooltips at all. On de:Winston Churchill the footnotes are well suited to Reference previews: it works OK, although the footnotes have to be long and repetitive because they do not refer on to the bibliography. On de:wiki I see no way to choose Reference tooltips instead. I think some other wikis may decide not to move immediately to Reference previews, or, if they move, will find it less helpful. Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 15:22, 30 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

Given the unfavorable response at meta, I support your proposal not to change to "Reference Previews" just yet. We can stick with "Reference Tooltips" as long as the "Reference Tooltips" gadget works. Since "Reference Tooltips" is a "default gadget" on enwiki, it will probably continue to work for quite a long time. So my answer to your questions is (a) yes, (b) in my view yes, and (c) anyone who prefers "Reference Previews" over "Reference Tooltips" can easily go to Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-gadgets and disable the "Reference Tooltips" gadget, which will automatically enable "Reference Previews" for this user. Greetings, --UV (disputatio) 23:52, 3 Februarii 2024 (UTC)

Debemus lingua nostra consensum indicare. Date veniam, o amici Latinistae, quia usque adhuc UV egoque Anglice de hac re disputavimus (nam Reference tooltips i.e. fenestrellae notarum subiunctarum adiutoriae, apud nos me postulante, UV agente, instauratae sunt). An nobis permittitis in hoc consilio pergere? Si dissonantiam videre vultis, videte en:Winston Churchill et fr:Winston Churchill et supra indices notarum subiunctarum (e.g.^{10, 16}etc.) cursorem tuum movete. Systema nostrum, quod cum systemate Anglico correspondet, hoc tempore retinere suademus. Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 10:03, 4 Februarii 2024 (UTC)

Negligence in fighting against cross wiki vandals

There was NO edit warring but tagging for deletion only. These w:pl:WP:CHICAGO = w:en:WP:LTA/GRP nonsense vandalisms are permitted to stay here indefinitely for days, and are even wrongfully protected here instead of being deleted locally on sight, so stewards are constantly forced to intervene here. 83.30.174.241 10:39, 24 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

You are, I think, talking about one discussion page on which a message, not obviously vandalistic, not obscene, remained peacefully for a few days. Evidently you are not fully informed of the scale of the recent attacks here: if you knew more, you would possibly reconsider the term "negligence".

This is a small wiki, and it has been difficult, but we do our best. Several stewards have been very helpful and, as one of the admins concerned, I'd be happy to discuss this further with them. They can easily get in touch with me on my talk page, or continue the discussion here. Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 13:28, 24 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

Your talk page is protected from IPs, so we talk here. I repeatedly reverted this above LTA in other wikis especially. Links which once were at NOW deleted "Disputatio:Pugilatio (moderna)" talk page are nothing but GARBLED spam links from already ISP-deleted hate site by GRP named:

ƃɹo˙ǝɯǝɹdnsɐıpǝdoꞁɔʎɔuǝ˙ʍʍʍ

If you see something with it, delete it immediately, please.

83.30.184.119 15:25, 24 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

I understand, of course. I know who added the information, I know that it is useless. I (like you, no doubt, and many others) was getting multiple obscene threats from the same person. I am also hearing once again from "Wikinger", a pen-friend of "Chicago boys". How nice! The WMF has "banned and blocked" both persons, but the WMF legal department has refused any help to me.

So, left alone by the WMF legal department, I tried an experiment. If I allowed this anonymous, useless, but not vandalistic, message to remain on a talk page (talk pages, after all, contain many other relatively useless and irrelevant messages) would I be named in fewer obscene semi-literate summaries? Would Vicipaedia get less vandalism for a few days? Yes, in fact, for those few days, it worked.

I have no sympathy for the WMF, its bans and its lawyers, since they have no sympathy for me. But I have lots of sympathy for the stewards and cross-wiki patrollers, who deal with far more of this stuff than I do. So, since you ask me not to run such an experiment again, I won't. Just keep on watching us, please! Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 16:25, 24 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

So now all is good! Failed experiment is HOPEFULLY dead, it only would permit to trash latin wiki pages with spam. I use dynamic IP, and for example, I reverted "w:sl:WP:PZAP/GRP" once here: Specialis:Conlationes/83.30.168.216. If I will notice something then I will tag it for deletion, in other case revert. That's all. 83.30.187.141 16:50, 24 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

Yes, fairly good :) Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 17:01, 24 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

Discussion about verbs derived from dare on Wiktionary

For those interested, there is a discussion I am participating to on Wiktionary concerning the derived verbs of dare. It started after I added a few verbs to the list of the “derived terms” of that verb (like abdere, addere, indere, perdere, etc.). Whatever your opinion is, if you are interested in the topic you are invited to participate. --Grufo (disputatio) 09:23, 27 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

@Grufo: I'm sorry, this will seem very unhelpful, but my inclination, when a wiki argument has become so heated that you can't stir it with a spoon (metaphor based on en:Porridge), is to walk away from it for about two years. Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 09:43, 27 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

Andrew, probably I will. But whether for two years or one day will depend on the fact that I am the only one discussing or not. If I remain the only one, it will probably be two years. --Grufo (disputatio) 09:48, 27 Ianuarii 2024 (UTC)

Quomodo invenire paginas autotranslatas?

Succurrite mihi! Non scio quomodo paginas formula "paginae autotranslatae" ornatas inveniam ut videam num interim rescriptae/emendatae sint. Itaque apud Kamo no Chōmei addidi formulam de latinitate.

Optime vir! Scio paginas autotranslatas apud "Categoria:Latinitas -7 (non latine)" inveniri. Tamquam FORMULA. Sed nullo loco est elenchus singularum paginarum istarum!

Chang'an (nomen Anglicum); vide "Siganum"

Scripsit Andreas: "optime, sed fontem nominis Latini Changanum frustra (usque adhuc) quaesivi." Here too, and apparently, the tempting Latin term Sianganum designates a city, "Siangyang," said to be on the Ham River in Huquan Province at longitude 129.16, that may be Xiangyang, on the Han River in Hubei Province, at longitude 112°07′19″E. Chang'an is on the Wei River. Confusing evidence, but let's register it here, in case it helps. IacobusAmor (disputatio) 13:44, 14 Aprilis 2024 (UTC)

Interesting. Was this comment intended for Disputatio:Siganum? It seems more relevant there: anyway, I have copied it there and have added a comment there. Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 15:19, 14 Aprilis 2024 (UTC)

Fair enough. We never know where interest may be piqued. IacobusAmor (disputatio) 17:02, 14 Aprilis 2024 (UTC)

Correzione

Ciao Wikipedia Latino,

sono un correttore di Wikipedia Italia e sto testando la versione "beta" della piattaforma. Essa include un traduttore per l'agevolazione della traslazione di una voce da una Wikipedia ad un'altra. Ho provato a portare qua, una voce scritta da me (Filippo Biagioli). Mi è stato fatto notare che la traduzione era tutta sbagliata. Quindi, visto che ormai l'avevo "tradotta" ho rifatto fare la correzione ad un traduttore professionista. Qualcuno può per favore vedere se adesso la voce va bene? Grazie Autunno2022 (disputatio) 16:59, 16 Aprilis 2024 (UTC)

De nominibus

Does Vicipaedia need articles on the hundreds of thousands of surnames that have served as forenames? Innumerable people have been named for figures familial and otherwise, especially political (see "Jefferson Davis" and "Washington Irving"). An early nineteenth-century ancestor of mine bore the first name Wilkins—a puzzlement until genealogical research showed that it was the (maiden) surname of his great-grandmother. Should Vicipaedia therefore have an article on the name Wilkins? Why not? Where do we draw the line? IacobusAmor (disputatio) 15:26, 9 Maii 2024 (UTC)

Of course not. But how else should we deal with that if not on a case-by-case basis (e.g. by adding {{Gravitas dubia}} when needed)? --Grufo (disputatio) 20:34, 9 Maii 2024 (UTC)

Encyclopaedias are not about names, they are about things. If it's names you want, you go to a dictionary of proper names, or various other kinds of dictionary, but not to an encyclopaedia. If Iacobus's ancestor is notable, the information can go in his biography; if not, it's not for us!

The anonymous user who makes articles about forenames has been told that they are out of scope. They do serve as discretiva pages if they link to at least two existing pages. On that basis, I have not so far deleted pages about forenames that are also discretiva pages. Their big fault is that they give dubious information on origins from dubious sources or none.

Articles about surnames should surely be deleted. Anyone who fancies making templates (!) could make one saying encyclopedia articles should be about things, not names; or such articles could be marked "delenda" with an explanation in the summarium. Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 19:03, 13 Maii 2024 (UTC)

I could make a template along the lines of what Wikipedia is not (not a dictionary, not a telephone directory, etc.). Something like “Haec pagina putatur non esse enciyclopaedica. Vicipaedia non est ... et cetera”. The problem is that I don't know how to say “telephone directory” in Latin :) Morgan suggests only index, album (but then I guess telephonicus/-um? – see under “.phon directory”) --Grufo (disputatio) 19:30, 13 Maii 2024 (UTC)

Maybe "repertorium telephonicum" would work?

You were quick to respond to that anonymized hint! It could be useful I think.

If we wonder whether cognomina belong to the future of Vicipaedia, it would be a good idea to look at Categoria:Cognomina (which are in fact Latin ones) and subcategories (all other languages) to see how they are used. If the pages have nothing much in common except that they are discretivae, then a basic question is, do we want eventual big discretiva pages like e.g. en:Bailey or do we consider them useless/out of scope? Could we realistically maintain them, or would they forever be incomplete? Would anyone come to Vicipaedia to look for that (unless, possibly, for Latin cognomina)? Would they ever be useful? In my view, if a user was looking for a certain "Bailey" having forgotten the forenames, a clever Google search would work better than trawling though a long list like the one on en:wiki.

For myself, I am in favour of ruling this subject area out of scope. Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 19:56, 13 Maii 2024 (UTC)

Before creating it I will just write here a draft of the template. Feel free to edit the text below as you prefer.

Haec commentatio putatur non esse encyclopaedica Vicipaedia non est: Dictionarium Tabularium telephonicum Domus editoria notionum originalium Diarium [QUID?]

The name of the template could be {{Non Vicipaedia}}. --Grufo (disputatio) 17:19, 14 Maii 2024 (UTC)

Addition. Furthermore we would need to clarify when to use this template and when to use instead {{Gravitas dubia}}. I think that a criterion could be this: if the topic falls among the points listed in {{Non Vicipaedia}}, use {{Non Vicipaedia}}, otherwise use {{Gravitas dubia}} (e.g. a poet – poets are certainly an encyclopedic topic! – whom only I know, because they happen to be my neighbour).

Last but not least. What category should we use? Still Categoria:Gravitas dubia or should we create a new category instead (e.g. Categoria:Non Vicipaedia)?: --Grufo (disputatio) 22:25, 14 Maii 2024 (UTC)

Greetings, fellow Wikipaedians.

Since the English language is full of proper names derived from surnames (for exemple, Wayne is a surname in Ioannes Wayne and a forename in Wayne Gretzky and Wayne Rooney), I began creating some of these pages, like Grant or Scott. However, these pages are all about surnames and names, not surnames-only, without names. So, answering to IacobusAmor's question, Vicipaedia does not need articles on all the hundreds of thousands of surnames in the English language, only those that are used also as forenames and (possibly) middle names. 2.39.112.203 13:44, 18 Maii 2024 (UTC)

As mentioned, Wilkins has served as a forename, so you evidently think Vicipaedia needs an article on it, but the example in your next sentence seems to say it doesn't, on the grounds that Vicipaedia has no article on somebody whose forename is Wilkins, right? IacobusAmor (disputatio) 17:41, 18 Maii 2024 (UTC)

You are right. As for now, Vicipaedia only has two articles on personalities who bore Wilkins as their surname, not as a forename. 2.39.112.203 07:46, 19 Maii 2024 (UTC)

For example, Kennedy is the surname of eleven personalities with their own pages on the Latin Vicipaedia, but since there is not a single page in which it is used as a proper name, its page cannot be created. On the other hand, Ryan is used six times as a forename and at least four times as a surname, so it could have its page.

As a disambiguation with only one page is useless, several name pages simply cannot be created on Vicipaedia (at least for now), like Scarlett (only 1 page) or Athenodorus (0 pages). At the same time, a name page cannot be too short, or it would be a stub, so I think more than two existing pages is better. Regarding the sources for the etymology, I use Behind the name, sometimes the Online Etymology Dictionary and old books on Google Books. I think adding a source is always better than having none. If there are better sources you can suggest to all the Vicipaedian community, then we are happily waiting for your feedback.

Thank you all and have a nice day. 2.39.112.203 13:44, 18 Maii 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for joining in the discussion. I fully agree that adding a source is better than having no source. I have no magic guide to reliable sources for the origin of forenames or surnames: it is a subject area in which truly reliable sources are hard to find.

It is questionable whether the "meaning" of a forename or a surname can be stated at all, and whether that meaning is relevant to its use in the names of individuals. In my case (I may as well use my case as example) Google tells me without hesitation that my forename means “strong” or “manly.” But that's not relevant to me, and it wasn't relevant to my mother or father. In general, the etymology of individual names is not necessarily relevant to the individuals who have those names. Even if the etymology and "meaning" of personal names can be cited to a reliable source, how is it relevant to an encyclopedia? Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 14:43, 18 Maii 2024 (UTC)

Macronizer

Can Latin Wikipedia integrate an automatic Latin macronizer feature please? Beginners like me's pronunciation would benefit. It would be as convenient as how on Chinese Wikipedia you have the option to convert between traditional and simplified. 174.92.25.207 23:40, 7 Iulii 2024 (UTC)

The short answer is no. It can be done easily code-wise, in theory, but would require editors always to write the “macronized” version in the wikitext, and that will never happen. E.g., imagine a template named {{Bifrons}} that displays “Gallia est omnis divisa in partes tres” by default, but can display “Găllĭă ĕst ŏmnĭs dīvīsă ĭn părtēs trēs” if you click on some option; to implement that, editors will have to write in the wikitext {{Bifrons|Găllĭă ĕst ŏmnĭs dīvīsă ĭn părtēs trēs}} (with the default result of “Gallia est omnis divisa in partes tres”). The other way around – i.e. automatically reconstructing the vowel length starting from simple vowels – is simply not possible. --Grufo (disputatio) 01:41, 8 Iulii 2024 (UTC)

zhwiki doesn't always write traditional, but the simplified (like lawiki unmacronized) to traditional (like lawiki macronzied) still works. This inverse is not a function, but I think they use a word/phrase list to fix the wrong reconstructions.

Though now I see the challenge. Whereas the converter for zhwiki could near 99% accuracy, the one for lawiki might only reach an unacceptable 70% accuracy. This is based on seeing around 3 out of 7 words of Littera marked with warnings after pasting the lede and the first heading into https://alatius.com/macronizer/ .

I suppose the Latin macronization would be more computationally expensive to get right because of the difficulties in recovering context from the free word order. Perhaps I need to ask elsewhere for a browser extension that uses AI for this. 174.92.25.207 06:19, 8 Iulii 2024 (UTC)

Nova formula: {{Capsa tabellaria}}

Our standard (and correct) way to insert infoboxes is normally that of relying on preformatted templates that allow to display a finite set of properties for a given item. However sometimes it can happen that we want to display a non-standard infobox that will be unique for a particular case, and there is where the new {{Capsa tabellaria}} template – which allows to list open sets of properties – can come in handy.

To give an example, the same infobox that is created by the {{Particula}} template can easily be created by {{Capsa tabellaria}} with a comparable level of low verbosity. But, of course, as in this case we have the {{Particula}} template we should not replace it with {{Capsa tabellaria}} in our pages: the latter is for non-standard infoboxes only.

Using {{Particula}} – our standard way:

{{Particula

	| onus_electricum = {{val|-1.602176634|e=-19|u=[[coulomb (unitas)|C]]}}

De paginis discretivis et de paginis discretivis nominum

Nostrae paginae de nominibus sunt paginae discretive – i.e. non ipsa nomina tractant, sed homines talibus nominibus appellatos colligunt. Si sub quodam lemmate homines collecti numero res superant, formulam {{Pagina discretiva nominis}} ordinariae formulae {{Pagina discretiva}} praeferre possumus. Immo, cum tales paginae discretivae nexūs ad homines praebeant, etiam nonnullas notitias breves de nomine ipso narrare possunt.

Casūs igitur illos non intellego in quibus sive paginam discretivam nominis sive paginam discretivam simplicem habemus (exempli gratia: Paris (nomen) et Paris). Nonne suppeditat tantummodo pagina Paris? Nomina tractare tantummodo ad nomina colligenda mihi videtur esse labor ad dictionarium, haud ad encyclopaediam, idoneus. Nihilominus, si statuimus quasdam paginas de quibusdam nominibus commendabiles esse, tametsi similes paginas discretivas iam habeamus, credo in his casibus formulam {{Pagina discretiva nominis}} e paginis de nominibus removendam esse: plures paginae discretivae de eadem re utilitati ipsi paginas discretivas habendi obstant.

Our pages about forenames are disambiguation pages – that is, they are not about the names, they simply collect the people called with such names. And so, if under a certain lemma the number of people surpasses the number of things, we can favour the {{Pagina discretiva nominis}} template to the more ordinary {{Pagina discretiva}} template. Of course, while these pages provide links to people, they can also provide short notions about the name itself.

With this in mind, I don't understand those cases in which we have both a “name disambiguation page” and an ordinary disambiguation page (e.g., Paris (nomen) and Paris)). Is Paris not enough? Dealing with names just for the sake of collecting names looks to me better suited to a dictionary than an encyclopedia. Nevertheless, if we do decide that certain pages about certain names are acceptable, even when we already have similar disambiguation pages, then I think that in these cases we have to remove the {{Pagina discretiva nominis}} template from the pages about the names: having more disambiguiation pages for the same thing goes against the very utility of having disambiguation pages.

Casus genitivus an nominativus argumento omisso?

Formulam {{PetrucciCat}}, {{en:IMSLP}} similem, creavi, sub titulo nexuum externorum scribendam – vide, exempli gratia:

• Aetas Classica (musica) § Nexus externi
• Ioannes Adolphus Hasse § Nexus externi
• Reinhardus Keiser § Nexus externi
• Nicolaus Antonius Manfroce § Nexus externi

Secundum argumentum formulae casum genitivum requirit (e.g. Ioannis Adolphi Hasse in {{PetrucciCat|Hasse, Johann Adolph|Ioannis Adolphi Hasse}}, quod gignit Partiturae liberae Ioannis Adolphi Hasse apud Bibliothecam Musicam Petrucci.). Nihilominus sententiam sic mutare possum ut casum nominativum requirat (e.g. Ioannes Adolphus Hasse partituras liberas apud Bibliothecam Musicam Petrucci habet.). Hoc quidem faciendo secundum argumentum omitti potest, quia nostra formula responsum {{PAGENAME}} legere potest. Attamen credo formam secundae sententiae esse inferiorem. Quid dicitis? --Grufo (disputatio) 17:53, 18 Septembris 2024 (UTC)

Nunciam Ioannes Adolphus Hasse nihil habet; bibliotheca vero partituras habet vel adservat. --Frognall (disputatio) 22:10, 18 Septembris 2024 (UTC)

Ad litteram, verum est. Praeferimusne igitur casum genitivum manu scribere? --Grufo (disputatio) 17:31, 19 Septembris 2024 (UTC)

Vicipaedia antiqua

Paginam Vicipaedia:Vicipaedia antiqua creavi ad veteres paginas spatii nominalis Vicipaedia: stipandas (similis pagina apud Vicipaediam Anglicam appellatur en:Wikipedia:Historical archive – vide etiam subpaginas eius). De nomine tamen certus non sum, quia duplicatio vocabuli “Vicipaediae” in “Vicipaedia:Vicipaedia antiqua” non mihi placet. --Grufo (disputatio) 07:57, 21 Septembris 2024 (UTC)

Deployment of Dark mode in Latin Wikipedia

Hello Latin Wikipedians,

We are happy to announce that the Wikimedia Foundation Web team have deployed dark mode here on Latin Wikipedia! This was possible because pages on your wiki have passed our checks for accessibility and other quality checks. Congratulations!

This was only possible due to the diligent work of editors and other technical contributors in your community who have made sure that templates, gadgets, and other parts of pages can be accessible in dark mode. Thank you all for making dark mode available for everybody!

For context, we would like to add that the Web team's work on dark mode has concluded. If on some wikis, the option is not yet available for logged-out users, this is likely because many pages do not yet display well in dark mode. As communities make progress on this work, we enable this feature on additional wikis once per month.

If you notice any issues after enabling dark mode, please create this page: Reading/Web/Accessibility for reading/Reporting/la.wikipedia.org in MediaWiki (like these pages), and report the issue in the created page.

Thank you!

On behalf of the Wikimedia Foundation Web team. UOzurumba (WMF) (disputatio) 02:24, 9 Octobris 2024 (UTC)

Help expanding articles

I have created a stub about Encanto, but I need help writing more content. Rugrats also might be deleted soon if not expanded from the looks of it. I personally think it's about time the protections of pages like Brother Bear and Charlotte's Web were removed. These pages have been protected for 15 years, and signs of disruption don't seem to be coming back. The IP ranges that vandalized the pages have not edited this Wikipedia (or any Wikipedia) since 2011, and they are currently globally blocked. If it's OK, may I request translating a few sentences on these articles? For Encanto, the film follows a multigenerational Colombian family, the Madrigals, led by a matriarch whose children and grandchildren—except for Mirabel Madrigal—receive magical gifts from a miracle, which they use to help the people in their rural community, called the Encanto. When Mirabel learns that the family is losing their magic, she sets out to find out why and save the family and house. For Rugrats, the series focuses on a group of toddlers, most prominently Tommy, Chuckie, Phil, and Lil, and their day-to-day lives, usually involving life experiences that become much greater adventures in the imaginations of the main characters. I'm not sure if Brother Bear and Charlotte's Web have enough content either, but I think they should be unprotected by now. Anyone want to help me on this?

@Andrew Dalby:, is it OK to remove protection from Charlotte's Web (pellicula 1973) and Charlotte's Web 2: Wilbur's Great Adventure? Also, more of these pages are tagged as short pages, can someone please add to them? The oldest one is Bambi. Brother Bear isn't really any better than Bambi, shouldn't it be tagged too? Shopping metaphor (disputatio) 16:33, 26 Octobris 2024 (UTC)

@Shopping metaphor: You should be able to edit them, why do you find it important to remove the semiprotection from these pages? I have removed the semiprotection from Charlotte's Web (pellicula 1973) and Charlotte's Web 2: Wilbur's Great Adventure, but it goes without saying that as soon as disruptive actions appear they will go under protection again. --Grufo (disputatio) 19:36, 26 Octobris 2024 (UTC)

I just think enough time has passed to remove protection. Hopefully more people can contribute to these pages now. Since 2014, only once did disruption briefly occur, in 2021. As long as they don't get disrupted, removing protection should be fine. However, I admit that the lack of content is a much bigger issue, can someone help me with that?

Lunae Dies, Martis Dies, et cetera

Tituli nostrarum paginarum de diebus hebdomadae structurae nominativi + genitivi favent (e.g. Dies Lunae, Dies Martis, etc.), at linguae Romanicae structuram genitivi + nominativi hereditaverunt (cf. nomina Francogallica Lundi, Mardi, etc.; vel nomina Italica Lunedì, Martedì, etc.). Hoc suggerit talem fuisse praelatissimum ordinem; nonne melius sit et apud nos eandem formam praeferre? --Grufo (disputatio) 12:57, 28 Octobris 2024 (UTC)

Linguae Romanicae non omnes talem ordinem servant, — Occitane oc:diluns, oc:dimars, Catalane ca:dilluns, ca:dimarts... Demetrius Talpa (disputatio)

Fortasse ambae formae sunt classicae. Maneant igitur nomina. --Grufo (disputatio) 01:24, 29 Octobris 2024 (UTC)

Index formarum Latinarum nominum Iaponicorum?

Greetings. Recently I created two pages for the Japanese names Akira and Hideki, and I could not find any Latin source for these names, nor a Latin declination for the first one, but in Vicipaedia there are some pages with Japanese names which have been adapted in Latin. Ieyasu, for example, is Latinized as Ieiasus, Shinzō as Scinzus and Nobunaga as Nobunanga (Oda is the surname). Would not be useful a page for listing these Latinizations of Japanese names, since we already have a page for the Arabic ones? Thank you and have a nice day. 2.42.133.135 14:31, 16 Novembris 2024 (UTC)

• Of course, that would be an interesting addition. Demetrius Talpa (disputatio) 18:08, 16 Novembris 2024 (UTC)

  As for now I have only found five Latinized Japanese names (not counting the honorific titles, such as Taicosama): the three already mentioned above, Akihitus and Michika. Well, there is a sixth name, but the only source for Hirohitus I could find is from the article Victoriane Mortua Est? written by Daniel Pipes in 2009. I am not sure if blogs can be used as a source for Latin names. Also, I could not find any source for "Hisahitus", so I think that page should be moved to Hisahito. 2.42.133.135 21:51, 18 Novembris 2024 (UTC)

  I meant searching in Latin books, for example, De rebus in Japoniae regno ... gestis epistolae duae, and not in Wikipedia itself. And Hisahito can be renamed. Demetrius Talpa (disputatio) 22:25, 18 Novembris 2024 (UTC)

  Well, I have found a Latin book that is a gold mine for these Latinized names, Litterae Annvae Iaponiae Anni M.DC.XXIV.. It was first written in Italian, and then translated in Latin, so I am also linking here (as a placeholder) the original Italian version. 2.42.133.135 10:28, 19 Novembris 2024 (UTC)

Category for Wikisource learner texts

Hi all, Could you help me with a category name for texts for learners of Latin, for use on Wikisource? I had wikisource:la:Categoria:Textus ad discendam linguam latinam but wanted to see if there was a better way of writing this. JimKillock (disputatio) 21:18, 18 Novembris 2024 (UTC)

Textus ad discendum linguae latinae maybe? JimKillock (disputatio) 21:19, 18 Novembris 2024 (UTC)

I would say definitely the gerundive instead of the gerund (i.e. “ad linguam' Latinam discendam”). It seems good to me. Maybe instead of “textus” you could use “libri” or “fontes”? As in “Libri ad linguam Latinam discendam”. My two cents. --Grufo (disputatio) 22:31, 18 Novembris 2024 (UTC)

I think it's okay, why not. Demetrius Talpa (disputatio) 22:28, 18 Novembris 2024 (UTC)
