Spurious reversion
[edit]I recently edited this article making four improvements:
- align table cells with HTML5-compliant markup (mandated by Wikipedia:HTML 5)
{{use mdy dates}}
: "do not remove the template without valid reason, such as a determination the article uses or should use a different date format"{{unreferenced}}
: "You should only add this template to articles that contain no citations or references of any kind." True of Wudaokou station.- categories before stubs (mandated by Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Layout
Each of these changes is by the book, but Eti15TrSf repeatedly reverts my edits on this and other Beijing subway articles, either without explanation or with a bogus explanation that makes assertions contrary to the directives in Wikipedia noted above. If this user has a problem my correct editing, they can explain it here. —Anomalocaris (talk) 20:17, 20 July 2020 (UTC)
- Anomalocaris, there is no need for text align center in the station layouts.
<small><center>
uses less space and is 100% fine. This is used in all 340 beijing subway articles. For consistency's sake, if you want to use text align center, do it for all 340 articles. Also, every station has stubs before catagories by default. So putting stubs after categories is pointless. Eti15TrSf (talk) 23:51, 20 July 2020 (UTC)- To make you happy, I am adding refs to the line 13 stations. Eti15TrSf (talk) 23:56, 20 July 2020 (UTC)
- Eti15TrSf In Wikipedia, non-compliance with Wikipedia standards by one or more articles does not make it OK for for any given article to be non-complaint. It is well-known that HTML5-compliant markup is often longer than markup that was acceptable in HTML4, but that doesn't make the old HTML4-compliant markup OK. Every article should use only HTML5-compliant markup. Every article should have references. Every stub article should have categories listed before stubs. There are no exceptions.

- Anomalocaris, yes, sources are needed, but stub templates can be under categories, because categories are always at the bottom by default, as shown in Shangdi station. Nobody except you has a problem with html4. Nobody cares about non compliant because no one besides you ever has a problem, and html4 still functions well. Why don't you add content, instead of trying to "fix" syntax that doesn't need fixing? Eti15TrSf (talk) 03:57, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
Eti15TrSf: Right now, the display at the bottom of this article (Wudaokou station) is
Non-stub categories are supposed to appear before stub categories, and they would under my markup.
Please see Wikipedia:Linter. There are many Wikipedia editors working to remove lint from Wikipedia. The then-impending upgrade to HTML5 brought attention to the need to track and clean up lint. Unfortunately, the Linter does not detect non-HTML5-compliance regarding markup such as "align". This is a known Linter bug, phab:T173944. However, like other obsolete markup, such as <strike>...</strike>
, we're working to get rid of it. Thank you for your cooperation. Cheers! —Anomalocaris (talk) 04:48, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
