Hi there. Would you please be so kind as to participate in the discussion on Talk:Bernie Sanders about the political positions article? I've proposed converting the main article to summary style and copying the current information from the main article (which is more up to date) to the political positions article. Unfortunately, nobody has participated in the discussion, and I feel that I require consensus to make such a major change to the article. In the meantime, I believe that the political positions article ought to be a redirect to ensure consistency and that new edits are not lost in the shuffle.

Your GA nomination of Utica, New York
Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Utica, New York you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. 
This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of Jsayre64 -- Jsayre64 (talk) 17:00, 18 August 2015 (UTC)
You forgot to add your DYK nomination to the list of current nominations, so remember that for next time, I already did it for you. Also, I think I have a good idea for a new hook: "... that a city in New York might have gotten its name after being picked from a hat?" If you think this is good let me know and I will add it.

Reference errors on 18 September
Hello, I'm ReferenceBot. I have automatically detected that an edit performed by you may have introduced errors in referencing. It is as follows:
- On the Buffalo, New York page, your edit caused a broken reference name (help). (Fix | Ask for help)
Please check this page and fix the errors highlighted. If you think this is a false positive, you can report it to my operator. Thanks, ReferenceBot (talk) 00:21, 19 September 2015 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for September 23
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Buffalo, New York, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Interstate 290. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Utica New York climate
Hi I am ssbbplayer and I normally edit the weather boxes in the climate sections of various cities in USA. When I came across on this one, there quite a lot of errors in it and I have fixed it. I realized that you have edited the page a lot so it would be good to contact the editor who edits the page quite a lot. In the weatherbox, you stated that you need to get full extremes. If someone can interpret or find the full extremes from the NCDC website please do. I can help you with that as I have decent experience in editing weather boxes for a while.
For the extremes information, it is available on the NWS site (first NOAA link) under the section NOWdata (which shows climate data). The station used in the weather box (Griffiss AFB, not Rome-Griffiss, NY, even though these 2 stations are right next to each other) is not in the station menu so you click on "View Map" and then "Show more stations" then select "Griffiss AFB". Once you selected your station, go to "monthly summarized data", and for record highs, change your variable to "max temp", change the year range with "por" for data from the beginning and the summary section should stay as "daily maximum". You should see a table that says "Monthly highest max temperature". This table is indicating the highest temperature ever recorded in each month during that year. If you go to the bottom, the max refers to the highest temperature ever recorded in that month since the beginning of weather observations at this station. This is the data you need to fill in the extremes for record high. For record low, you still go to "monthly summarized data" and instead of choosing max temp as your variable, you choose "min temp" and ensure that the "daily minimum" is under the summary field. Similar to the one for record highs, you will see a table that says "Monthly lowest min temperature", which indicates the lowest temperature ever recorded in each month during that year. For the record lows, use the values under the min part in the bottom of the table as this corresponds to the lowest temperature ever recorded in that month, which is your record low.
I added a second source from NCDC which is the 1981–2010 normals data for the same station in ASCII format, which appears difficult to read but is necessary for showing info related to avg. precipitation days and average snowy days (the first NOAA source doesn't show info on this anymore after the website was updated a year ago). To interpret the data, see the Readme file. Furthermore, I have removed rainy days as NOAA does not calculate any information related to days with rainfall. Any further issues with the weatherbox are mentioned on the talk page. I hope this helps and clarifies your understanding of my edits. Thanks. Ssbbplayer (talk) 04:46, 5 October 2015 (UTC)
- SSbbplayer Thank you for the detailed instructions on how I can fix the waetherbox. I had asked the Help Desk in the past but nobody really understood where to find everything. When I get a chance later on this week I will update the table. Once again I thank you for bringing all of this to my attention and fixing the data. Buffaboy talk 21:04, 5 October 2015 (UTC)
VisualEditor update
- This note is only delivered to English Wikipedia subscribers of the visual editor's newsletter.
The location of the visual editor's preference has been changed from the "Beta" tab to the "Editing" section of your preferences on this wiki. The setting now says Temporarily disable the visual editor while it is in beta. This aligns en.wiki with almost all the other WMF wikis; it doesn’t mean the visual editor is complete, or that it is no longer “in beta phase” though.
This action has not changed anything else for editors: it still honours editors’ previous choices about having it on or off; logged-out users continue to only have access to wikitext; the “Edit” tab is still after the “Edit source” one. You can learn more at the visual editor’s talk page.
We don’t expect this to cause any glitches, but in case your account no longer has the settings that you want, please accept our apologies and correct it in the Editing tab of Special:Preferences. Thank you for your attention, Elitre (WMF) -16:32, 7 October 2015 (UTC)
VisualEditor News #5—2015
Read this in another language • Subscription list for this multilingual newsletter
Click the pencil icon to open the editor for a page. Inside that, use the gear menu in the upper right corner to "Switch to visual editing".
The editing button will remember which editing environment you used last time, and give you the same one next time. The desktop site will be switching to a system similar to this one in the coming months.
You can read and help translate the user guide, which has more information about how to use the visual editor.
Since the last newsletter, the VisualEditor Team has fixed many bugs, added new features, and made some small design changes. They post weekly status reports on mediawiki.org. Their workboard is available in Phabricator. Their current priorities are improving support for languages like Japanese and Arabic, making it easier to edit on mobile devices, and providing rich-media tools for formulæ, charts, galleries and uploading.
Recent improvements
Educational features: The first time you use the visual editor, it now draws your attention to the Link and ⧼visualeditor-toolbar-cite-label⧽ tools. When you click on the tools, it explains why you should use them. (T108620) Alongside this, the welcome message for new users has been simplified to make editing more welcoming. (T112354) More in-software educational features are planned.
Links: It is now easier to understand when you are adding text to a link and when you are typing plain text next to it. (T74108, T91285) The editor now fully supports ISBN, PMID or RFC numbers. (T109498, T110347, T63558) These "magic links" use a custom link editing tool.
Uploads: Registered editors can now upload images and other media to Commons while editing. Click the new tab in the "Insert Images and media" tool. You will be guided through the process without having to leave your edit. At the end, the image will be inserted. This tool is limited to one file at a time, owned by the user, and licensed under Commons's standard license. For more complex situations, the tool links to more advanced upload tools. You can also drag the image into the editor. This will be available in the wikitext editor later.
Mobile: Previously, the visual editor was available on the mobile Wikipedia site only on tablets. Now, editors can use the visual editor on any size of device. (T85630) Edit conflicts were previously broken on the mobile website. Edit conflicts can now be resolved in both wikitext and visual editors. (T111894) Sometimes templates and similar items could not be deleted on the mobile website. Selecting them caused the on-screen keyboard to hide with some browsers. Now there is a new "Delete" button, so that these things can be removed if the keyboard hides. (T62110) You can also edit table cells in mobile now.
Rich editing tools: You can now add and edit sheet music in the visual editor. (T112925) There are separate tabs for advanced options, such as MIDI and Ogg audio files. (T114227 and T113354) When editing formulæ and other blocks, errors are shown as you edit. It is also possible to edit some types of graphs; adding new ones, and support for new types, will be coming.
On the English Wikipedia, the visual editor is now automatically available to anyone who creates an account. The preference switch was moved to the normal location, under Special:Preferences.
Future changes
You will soon be able to switch from the wikitext to the visual editor after you start editing. (T49779) Previously, you could only switch from the visual editor to the wikitext editor. Bi-directional switching will make possible a single edit tab. (T102398) This project will combine the "Edit" and "Edit source" tabs into a single "Edit" tab, similar to the system already used on the mobile website. The "Edit" tab will open whichever editing environment you used last time.
Let's work together
- Share your ideas and ask questions at mw:VisualEditor/Feedback. This feedback page uses Flow for discussions.
- Can you read and type in Korean or Japanese? Language engineer David Chan needs people who know which tools people use to type in some languages. If you speak Japanese or Korean, you can help him test support for these languages. Please see the instructions at mw:VisualEditor/IME Testing#What to test if you can help, and report it on Phabricator (Korean - Japanese) or on Wikipedia (Korean - Japanese).
- Local admins can set up the Citoid automatic reference feature for your wiki. If you need help, then please post a request in the Citoid project on Phabricator. Include links to the TemplateData for the most important citation templates on your wiki.
- The weekly task triage meetings are open to volunteers. Learn how to join the meetings and how to nominate bugs at mw:VisualEditor/Weekly triage meetings. You do not need to attend the meeting to nominate a bug for consideration, though. Instead, go to Phabricator and "associate" the main VisualEditor project with the bug.

Bot automation at Wikipedia:Today's articles for improvement
Greetings WikiProject TAFI members!
Over the past two weeks, there has been extensive discussion on introducing bot automation to assist with maintenance of the Today's Articles for Improvement project. A bot has now been approved for trial and will carry out the weekly duties. The bots first run will occur around 00:00, 22 November 2015 (UTC) (midnight on Sunday).
If you have been assisting any of the weekly maintenance tasks, please refrain from doing so this week. The bot needs to be tested and proven it can do the job, and it only gets one chance per week. The tasks will include:
- Adding the new scheduled article to Wikipedia talk:Today's articles for improvement and removing the entry from Wikipedia:Articles for improvement
- Set up the schedule pages for the new TAFI, except the adding of an image and caption
- Adding {{TAFI}} to the new article for improvement, remove {{TAFI}} from last week's article and add {{Former TAFI}} to the talk page
- Notify relevant WikiProjects that the new TAFI is within their scope
- Send a mass message to everyone on the notification list of the new TAFI selection
Updating the accomplishments and archiving selections is still done manually, along with daily tasks such as adding approved entries to the articles for improvement page. These will become automated in the near future.
We hope the bot proves to serve well, and by carrying out the routine housekeeping tasks we can boost the overall efficiency and effectiveness of the project. MusikBot thanks you for your service in helping with the weekly tasks in the past, and for your cooperation during this trial period :)

Nomination of SkyscraperCity for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article SkyscraperCity is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/SkyscraperCity (4th nomination) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Ricky81682 (talk) 21:52, 3 December 2015 (UTC)
Albany, New York
I saw your message on the talk page at Albany, New York. This seems to be a complex vandal. I reported it here. I've tried to make sense of a number of edits of this user and various socks, and the sources don't seem to support the edits. It's hard to imagine this complex edit and all the errors are just good faith. Magnolia677 (talk) 23:32, 5 December 2015 (UTC)
- Yes, this does appear to be strange behavior. From the number of IP's and accounts used to the actual information being added (JPMorgan with headquarters in Albany), it's a head-scratcher. Buffaboy talk 00:32, 6 December 2015 (UTC)

Utica NY Downtown Photo
Hey Buffaboy, I thought the downtown photo of utica was really cool. Would there be any way we can have it back? (It's no longer on the Utica Page)
Also, could we have the Utica Marsh photo be under the section "Climate", as the wetlands show the city's climate more so than they show the city's geography. It would be sweet if the Marsh photo was to the left side of the section on climate, just like it was before a couple months ago. It really adds to the character of climate.
Thank you Buffaboy!
- Hi RachelNichols2077, thanks for contacting me on my talk page. I will attempt to put these images back into the article, but per the discussion that occurred here, it may be a difficult task to accomplish. Buffaboy talk 20:40, 12 December 2015 (UTC)

VisualEditor News #6—2015
Read this in another language • Subscription list
A new, simpler system for editing will offer a single Edit button. Once the page has opened, you can switch back and forth between visual and wikitext editing.
The current plan is for the default setting to have the Edit button open the editing environment you used most recently.
You can read and help translate the user guide, which has more information about how to use the visual editor.
Since the last newsletter, the VisualEditor Team has fixed many bugs and expanded the mathematics formula tool. Their workboard is available in Phabricator. Their current priorities are improving support for languages such as Japanese and Arabic, and providing rich-media tools for formulæ, charts, galleries and uploading.
Recent improvements
You can switch from the wikitext editor to the visual editor after you start editing.
The LaTeX mathematics formula editor has been significantly expanded. (T118616) You can see the formula as you change the LaTeX code. You can click buttons to insert the correct LaTeX code for many symbols.
Future changes
The single edit tab project will combine the "Edit" and "Edit source" tabs into a single "Edit" tab, like the system already used on the mobile website. (T102398) Initially, the "Edit" tab will open whichever editing environment you used last time. Your last editing choice will be stored as a cookie for logged-out users and as an account preference for logged-in editors. Logged-in editors will be able to set a default editor in the Editing tab of Special:Preferences in the drop-down menu about "Editing mode:".
The visual editor will be offered to all editors at the following Wikipedias in early 2016: Amharic, Buginese, Min Dong, Cree, Manx, Hakka, Armenian, Georgian, Pontic, Serbo-Croatian, Tigrinya, Mingrelian, Zhuang, and Min Nan. (T116523) Please post your comments and the language(s) that you tested at the feedback thread on mediawiki.org. The developers would like to know how well it works. Please tell them what kind of computer, web browser, and keyboard you are using.
In 2016, the feedback pages for the visual editor on many Wikipedias will be redirected to mediawiki.org. (T92661)
Testing opportunities
- Please try the new system for the single edit tab on test2.wikipedia.org. You can edit while logged out to see how it works for logged-out editors, or you can create a separate account to be able to set your account's preferences. Please share your thoughts about the single edit tab system at the feedback topic on mediawiki.org or sign up for formal user research (type "single edit tab" in the question about other areas you're interested in). The new system has not been finalized, and your feedback can affect the outcome. The team particularly wants your thoughts about the options in Special:Preferences. The current choices in Special:Preferences are:
- Remember my last editor,
- Always give me the visual editor if possible,
- Always give me the source editor, and
- Show me both editor tabs. (This is the current state for people using the visual editor. None of these options will be visible if you have disabled the visual editor in your preferences at that wiki.)
- Can you read and type in Korean or Japanese? Language engineer David Chan needs people who know which tools people use to type in some languages. If you speak Japanese or Korean, you can help him test support for these languages. Please see the instructions at mw:VisualEditor/IME Testing#What to test if you can help, and report it on Phabricator (Korean - Japanese) or on Wikipedia (Korean - Japanese).
