CSDH edit summary

For your CSDH script, could you change the edit summary for the declination of a G10? Currently it reads "Not blatantly an attack page or negative BLP"; could you change it to "unsourced negative BLP", per WP:CSD#G10? BLPs that are about bad people but that are well sourced should not be deleted necessarily. Jujutacular ^talk 04:18, 7 March 2011 (UTC)

Done. Ale_Jrb ^talk 13:21, 7 March 2011 (UTC)

Igloo error

igloo error: an unrecoverable XML parsing error occured on the page you attempted to view. This is most commonly caused by a faulty, recent change to the Wikipedia page layout. If you are receiving this error frequently, you should stop using igloo and report the problem to User:Ale_jrb. Details:XML Parsing Error: undefined entity Location: http://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=User:Ale_jrb/Scripts/igloo/run&sessionkey=7oTSPpXFa8PeSBJ0FSpFTociWRhhhiPPhXgBhcEBWDeRDBgPWjRiWiXI:::: Line Number 273, Column 10:

I am running Twinkle at the same time, on my monobook.js while Igloo is running of vector.js

Are you encountering this error frequently, or was it one off? If it only occurs occasionally, on what pages? Ale_Jrb ^talk 21:37, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

Scratch that, I see it. Someone must have messed up an edit to MediaWiki. Ale_Jrb ^talk 21:38, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

MediaWiki changes have currently broken it. I'm looking into it. Thanks for reporting. Ale_Jrb ^talk 22:54, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for fixing it up. :) Spitfire19 ^T/_C 19:45, 10 March 2011 (UTC)

Igloo

When I try to connect to Igloo, it pauses for about 30 seconds on "Attempting to connect to the server, requesting token..." and then stops with the message "Warning: igloo could not connect to the remote server. Loading stopped." It was doing this last night too, for a while, but later I was able to connect. Any idea what the problem could be? --E♴ (talk) 14:58, 8 March 2011 (UTC)

Server problems I guess. I think they were having some problems. Ale_Jrb ^talk 20:13, 9 March 2011 (UTC)

All right. I am able to get on right now... so thats good. --E♴(talk) 00:06, 10 March 2011 (UTC)

Question

Will I be able to use Igloo with Internet Explorer 9? I currently use a school-commissioned laptop and a recall is due next month, where the software will be upgraded to the latest versions (IE9, MSOffice 2010 etc), so I was wondering if Igloo would be compatible with IE9, I remember when I last asked you a similar question you said it had something to do with IE's HTML5 or CSS capabilities. Regards, —Ancient Apparition • Champagne? • 1:14pm • 02:14, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

igloo is not currently compatible with any versions of IE, as far as I'm aware. I am currently rewriting large parts of the igloo code based on this test, and will release this at some point in the future - but not soon. It's possible that I will be able to get it to work with IE then. Ale_Jrb ^talk 02:30, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

Oh ok, I greatly anticipate the day where IE users can use this tool :) from what I've seen it's mighty impressive. —Ancient Apparition • Champagne? • 4:42pm • 05:42, 19 March 2011 (UTC)
