Hi Njt! I noticed the following suggestion of yours in the Dev queue of MEpedia:Suggested_tasks: "Create custom Special page for tracking pages using NeedsImage template requested by User:Notjusttired" I was under the impression that this page accomplishes this: Category:Articles_that_need_an_image_or_photo Am I wrong or missing something? Thanks. Pyrrhus (talk) 19:22, 28 March 2019 (EDT)
 * Have done that now. I originally hoped to add or as a Tracking category in special pages so it's easy to find, but there's no simple way to do this. Would rather focus on other dev tasks.
 * Have you got any thoughts on different skins? I added some to the Dev queue including a dark one. notjusttired (talk) 17:18, 30 March 2019 (EDT)
 * BTW, I recently created a page to collate all those weird special pages together: MEpedia:Pages in need
 * The idea is that there would be a link in the lefthand sidebar to this "Pages in need" page so that contributors would have quick access to all these weird special pages. I'm pretty clueless on skins, so no opinion here, but I'll try to take a look.  Thanks for all your help, Njt!

 * okay, I’ve finally taken a look at skins. It looks like you are recommending TimelessDarkCSS as a light-sensitive option and Pivot as the Mobile option.  Is this correct?
 * Also, i note that your user page mentions “collapsible lists”. Do you know of any way to do that?  That would be ideal for the Contents page...
 * Pyrrhus (talk) 18:59, 10 April 2019 (EDT)


 * Hi Pyrrhus. Yes to the Timeless-DarkCSS for those with photophobia or preferring a dark background.
 * The Pivot skin is brilliant for mobile devices and tablets but actually looks excellent on a Desktop (in my view) - Timeless without the dark CSS is a serif font I seem to remember and also looks good on mobiles, tablets and desktops. The norm is to default to Vector for wikis but Vector is really hard work on small screens because you can't hide the side menu - either you zoom and scroll a lot or need the most amazing vision.
 * Assuming these get installed and work as well as expected it should be nice to have a button to flip to the dark skin for those not logged in . I haven't seen the code to do this yet though. notjusttired (talk) 16:44, 11 April 2019 (EDT)
 * okay, here’s what it looks like we should do:
 * Install Timeless-DarkCSS and Pivot skins
 * Put two links in the lefthand/top sidebar: “Light-sensitive interface” and “Mobile-friendly interface”. These links will bring up instructions for how to switch skins in the user’s Preferences.  When we find the code for a not-logged-in-user button, we’ll replace the links with buttons.
 * If the Pivot interface turns out to be as good as you say, we should talk about making Pivot the default interface for all devices.
 * Does that look right?
 * Pyrrhus (talk) 17:25, 11 April 2019 (EDT)


 * Yes, that's right, although I think calling it "dark view" or "dark version" would be better. Dark timeless is simply a skin called Timeless with extra CSS, Timeless has almost the same features as Pivot so it might be a case of seeing whether Timeless in white is more popular than Pivot - I prefer Pivot myself. There's 2 different ways to automatically switch skins for mobile users Method 1 and Mobile Frontend method which would allow desktop users to stay on Vector automatically. If you want to checkout hope they look on different screen sizes then Screenfly is pretty good notjusttired (talk) 18:50, 11 April 2019 (EDT)

Renaming?
I renamed this page to use the US spelling, as per the Manual of Style. User:kmdenmark But should the category be renamed to British Organizations? This would be easier to browse from because the country make would be first and the name is shorter. The same issue is there for Universities. This would also fit with the Standard MEpedia country categories eg Category:British research initiatives. I've created a temporary MEpedia Page Outlines for both Universities and Organizations but would welcome input / Ch changes from others. notjusttired (talk) 18:14, 20 February 2019 (EST)


 * The changes are fine with me. I have no attachment to either way. I think "Organizations based in the United Kingdom" is a bit long and awkward but it's the category title that Wikipedia uses.

Categories for UK politicians

Hi. Can you avoid removing politicians from the categories for political parties? This is crucial information for advocacy and not held elsewhere. Labour/Co-op members are considered members of both parties so need to be in more than one category. Keeping them as categories allows someone to look for UK adbocates, then use the subcategories to find just politicians for political parties or fod which committee they are on - one committee is investigating the PACE trial Parties cover both MPs and the unelected House of Lords.


 * Thank you for explaining the need for categories for politicians. I see your point and will not delete them anymore. Kmdenmark (talk) 14:29, 11 February 2019 (EST)


 * Thanks notjusttired (talk) 19:01, 11 February 2019 (EST)

Also please don't mark redirects for deletion - they are there to help from the correctly spelled page - searching the incorrect name means MEpedia then find the correct page name too. notjusttired (talk) 13:06, 7 February 2019 (EST)


 * Re: misspellings - I don't think misspellings should be honored with redirects. It is impossible to conceive of every misspelling that someone could use. I think the misspellings clutter the drop down menu in our search engine and make articles harder to find rather than easier. I support using redirects for alternative spellings, but not misspellings. If you can give me an example of one of the redirects you want to stay, it would help me understand your reasoning. I, also, eliminated some redirects where pages were not medically the same and to keep them as such would be inaccurate. A better way to link similar but different pages would be with links in the 'See also' section. (I don't know if you were the author of those redirects, but I wanted to explain why I eliminated those redirects, also.) My best, Kmdenmark (talk) 14:29, 11 February 2019 (EST)


 * It depends on the reason for the mispelling and how common it is. Eg if you delete the redirect for Intestinal permiability and type of into a search the correct page name won't come up - there's no results. Delete redirects for different spacing in page names and that search phrase may not work any more (eg The M.E. Society vs The ME Society). There's also a few unexpected UK vs US spellings  (diarrhoea), and a few researchers with names that are commonly mispelled or have very similar spellings, which sometimes means their research is under several different names (AT Anbu vs Theo Anbu). When it comes to linking redirects have a link icon next to the page name, so it's easy to pick the right one - although perhaps there is a hidden property that can be used.


 * I'm fine with trying it your way. Let's watch how the redirects work and see if we get other feedback from users.
 * A couple specific points: Sometimes the search engine is extra slow or temporary not working; that may explain why the correct spelling for Intestinal permeability didn't come up when you originally searched. I tested it and it came up every time I searched this morning.
 * Re: British spelling. I wholeheartedly agree that redirects for British spellings should have redirects. The main title is to be in American spelling as per MEpedia manual of style. My best, Kmdenmark (talk) 12:01, 12 February 2019 (EST)


 * Thanks User:Kmdenmark - I've noticed performance problems but that has been loading pages rather than on searches. Maybe there's something else going on.


 * With making redirects for deletion, they need any pages using them to be updated first. The Contents page (which I can't edit) has a non-standard List of Quotes link, so deleting to use the correct capitalization breaks the link on the Contents page.

RE: Csn the Mike Beadsworth page be the main one, with Michael Beadsworth the redirect? Professionally he uses the name Mike far more. Njt notjusttired (talk) 13:58, 23 January 2019 (EST)

Sure, sounds good. Kmdenmark (talk) 17:19, 23 January 2019 (EST)

Just FYI: On the Pathogen page, you have left the following typo: "_Chia_201dorferi_paper.png"

I can't fix the typo since I'm not sure what it was meant to say...

Best, Pyrrhus

Notjustired: Severe and very severe ME Chronological order goes from earliest to latest. Citations are not placed under the study and instead, they are cited. If details like pages are necessary, they can be entered into the citation. --MEcfsFMS (talk) 09:51, 20 October 2018 (EDT)

Hi. Is that somewhere in the editorial standards? I don't remember reading it. I think it's important to add doi to citations of they aren't already in there. I will look at adding author links to the citations too. I created a talk page for the Severe ME image to discuss ideas. notjusttired (talk) 10:15, 20 October 2018 (EDT)


 * I put doi in and the PMID? But PMC causes an error and I don't think they have figured out why yet. Authors links don't get created and I thought they were in the "Reference" area.--MEcfsFMS (talk) 10:39, 20 October 2018 (EDT)


 * I see, if the citation automatically creates the citation, authors internal links are created. If they have to be manually input then it does not seem to create them.


 * That makes sense. I thought people had been spending ages manually adding them or copying and pasting the code for the most common ones. I normally automatically generate a citation, if it doesn't work I use another link or the doi, then replace the finished link with a full text link if necessary. Links from investinme and researchgate normally don't generate automatically so I use a PubMed link and overwrite the link only after the citation is generated.

Could you update the Manual of style with anything else that isn't in there? I'll go back sort the citations I changed. notjusttired (talk) 10:53, 20 October 2018 (EDT)

MOS - Dates
Hi Notjusttired:

Somewhere at some point early on, I remember the date format was to be US, Jun 10, 2016, and not 10 Jun 2016. I can't remember where or when I read this but a few of us started changing dates in UK format and going forward we used US format. I think Jen had posted about it but I'm not sure. Also, we were to change any UK spellings to the US spelling unless it was a quote.--MEcfsFMS (talk) 14:26, 31 October 2018 (EDT)

ty for letting me know, can you fix what I wrote on MOS - does the same apply to date in citations? Sometimes they cause an error so I presume I put them in as Jun, 28 2018 now?


 * Yes, that is how I write in the citations, but move the comma so it is Jun 28, 2018 or Jun 2018. I will change MOS.--MEcfsFMS (talk) 14:43, 31 October 2018 (EDT)

- Will do, do you know about fixing the citation template error at all? Dates generated in the form 2018-06 always give an error when you generate a citation from a link - I presume it's possible to fix this? notjusttired (talk) 14:49, 31 October 2018 (EDT)

Fibromyaliga Page
Please be careful where information is added on the Fibromyalgia page. The blood test information you added should go on the Fibromyalgia notable studies page as it is not an accepted blood test yet. I moved the EpicGenetics blood test under the subheading "Blood tests" under "United States" and put the study you had added on the Fibromyalgia discussion page. You can post this research on the Fibromyalgia notable studies page.

I created and edited most of these pages starting with the username DxCFS. I lost my PW when FF crashed and could not get it back using the PW retrieval as there is something wrong with MEpedia carrying out this task. I have had many usernames because I am really bad with remembering my usernames and usually just use a VPN now.--77.111.245.10 12:07, 25 March 2019 (EDT)


 * Also, the Fibromyalgia page became too long to use the "Edit" tab and the "Edit source" tab is not an option due to citations and that is why I broke Notable studies off. There is an area at the bottom of the Fibromyalgia page to post news articles about research as people usually want to read about research by media and bloggers and not the hard research.--77.111.245.10 12:13, 25 March 2019 (EDT)


 * Thanks for the input - I've never edited that page before. I will update the redirects for blood test info - when I searched before adding it the Fibro Notable studies page wasn't near the top of the results (I don't recall seeing it at all). notjusttired (talk) 16:49, 25 March 2019 (EDT)
