Scratchin' my head here... Maybe you can point me in the right direction...
I've been using your unreliable.js script for quite some time. However, I've slowly begun to realize that - sometime a few months ago (at the very least) - this script has stopped functioning for me. I'm running the legacy 2010 vector skin, but it looks like your documentation page states that you can import the script onto your common.js page, or your skin.js page - which translates to me that skin is not the issue. I even commented out all of my other running scripts on both my common.js page as well as my vector.js page and with no luck. I also don't see any big errors in my developer source console in Firefox. Have you had this reported to you at all lately? Is there a direction you can point me to that has helped others with the same issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated. :-) Cheers - ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 04:58, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
- Once you ran my script solo, if it didn't work... I got no idea why. Try other skins to see if it works, or try putting it on vector.js directly? If not, you'll likely have to ask for help at WP:VPT or WP:SCRIPTREQ. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 06:54, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
Redirects
Hi Headbomb, I know you created some redirects to Swiss Journal of Economics and Statistics which I created and I'm wondering where you got them from and under what policy they're created, as I've found some more at Wikipedia:WikiProject Academic Journals/Journals cited by Wikipedia/Publisher2 that could possibly be created. Nobody (talk) 08:37, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
- I'm not sure I understand, the redirects I made were are all former names of the journal? What's the issue here? Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 13:38, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
- If you mean there are closely related redlinks, make sure they're not typos/misabbreviations (e.g. Swiss J Economics Statistics should be either the fully abbreviated Swiss J Econ Stat or the fully unabbreviated Swiss Journal of Economics Statistics). Fixing the articles with those is the better solution than creating other redirects. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 13:43, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
- I had 3 in mind. 2 (La Revue suisse d'économie politique et de statistique and Revue suisse d'Économie politique et de Statistique) are similar similar to one that you created (Revue Suisse d'Économie Politique et de Statistique) and the other one was Swiss J Economics Statistics. They aren't realy important, but they were used as the publications name in the past. Nobody (talk) 14:01, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
- You can either normalize the capitalization, or tag those with {{R from alternate capitalisation}}. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 14:02, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks. Also a heads-up that I might soon create a article for Alpine Entomology a redirect which you created. Nobody (talk) 14:07, 6 August 2024 (UTC)

Sticky table problems
Can you tell us if you see other problems than the ones already mentioned here:
So we can fix, or improve it. Please comment there. --Timeshifter (talk) 04:21, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
- Amongst other things, it also got rid of the color-coding. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 04:23, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks. Can you please comment there if you saw any other problems. I am not the editor of {{sticky table start}}, and I don't want to have to try to explain what you are seeing to the template editor: Jroberson108.
- Any other observations there would be appreciated. It is a new version of a popular template, {{sticky header}}, and the problems are still being worked out.
- I updated the link to the talk page section. --Timeshifter (talk) 04:55, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
