November 10[edit]

Revert page move request[edit]

Can someone please revert the page move from Chalfont Viaduct to The Chalfont Viaduct for me please? There is no case for having the definite article in the title (cf. (the) Golden Gate Bridge, (the) Forth Bridge) and as per WP:NCTHE it should not be included. I can't face working out how to do it without breaking some procedural rule. Thanks.

The article is currently at Chalfont_Viaduct. The other page is a redirect. If you think the redirect is not appropriate, you can discuss at WP:RFD. RudolfRed (talk) 00:22, 10 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

In fact the page move was the other way around. The article used to be at The Chalfont Viaduct but was moved, leaving behind a redirect which is normal. RudolfRed (talk) 00:24, 10 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

No, the original article was at Chalfont_Viaduct. It was moved to The Chalfont Viaduct, which is not appropriate. Now it's been moved and moved back again and I don't really know what is going on. Can we just not have a The in the title please? Thanks. Cnbrb (talk) 00:36, 10 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

OK, it's been re-re-reverted now, now without the 'The', thank you. Cnbrb (talk) 00:48, 10 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Line breaks[edit]

What is the difference between " " and " "? Please {{ping}} me when you respond. --Jax 0677 (talk) 16:12, 10 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

There is rarely or never any effective difference. Pedants prefer to , but they believe is the only correct version. Maproom (talk) 17:27, 10 November 2018 (UTC) Pinging Jax 0677. Maproom (talk) 17:27, 10 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Jax 0677: There is currently no difference in the rendered page because MediaWiki automatically converts to . Some source code tools work better with which is valid XHTML while is not. See more at Help:Line-break handling# which recommends . PrimeHunter (talk) 18:49, 10 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Boulder Community Health[edit]

The article for Boulder Community Health includes an (auto-generated?) map, but the map points to the wrong place. I corrected the coordinates in the article on October 16, but the correction has not "floated up" to the map, and I don't see a way to edit the map. How can I correct this? The map puts the hospital in Aurora, Colorado, but it's really located in Boulder. Jeffrey Beall (talk) 17:33, 10 November 2018 (UTC).[reply]

@Denverjeffrey: That particular sort of map is based on the coordinates in Wikidata, which were incorrect in this case. (You can see what information Wikidata has by clicking on "Wikidata item" under "tools" in the left-hand sidebar.) I've emended them in Wikidata and also revised the coordinates you added in the article, which were overprecise. Deor (talk) 18:15, 10 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, thanks.Jeffrey Beall (talk) 18:23, 10 November 2018 (UTC).[reply]
