Some types of information are difficult to encode in statements, or simply has not been encoded on Wikidata yet. In such cases, it might be useful to go through the references attached to claims of the entity, for additional information. To simplify this process, this user script lists all unique references based on stated in (P248) and reference URL (P854). The references are listed in a collapsible list below the table of labels and descriptions, collapsed by default to not be obtrusive." To enable it, include the following line in your common.js: mw.loader.load('//www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=User:Lagewi/references.js&oldid=2039248554&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript');

年度服务器切换即将开始

本年度的服务器切换测试将在2024年9月25日 15:00 UTC (23:00 UTC+8)开始，大约耗时一小时。这项举措能够确保维基百科以及其他的维基媒体项目可以在灾害冲击时依然维持线上运作（即灾难恢复）

在切换期间您可能会遭遇以下情况：

• 可以阅读但暂时无法编辑所有的维基，届时编辑条目或保存更改时将出现错误信息。如果您看到错误消息，请耐心等待一切恢复正常后再然后保存您的编辑。以防万一，还请在保存前请先另行复制一份您的修改。
• 后台作业变慢，有些可能被丢弃。红链可能无法像平时一样即时更新。如果您建立了一个新条目，而该条目的名称此前已经在其他页面显示为红色的内部链接，则该链接需要更长的时间才会被更新为蓝色。一些长时间运行的脚本将会停止服务。
• 部分项目代码可能因操作需要而继续处在只读模式。
• GitLab将暂停服务约90分钟。

请提前做好准备，全体维基媒体项目在切换前30分钟会进行公告。

您可以参见2024年第38期技术新闻、meta:Tech/Server_switch/zh、meta:Tech/Server_switch（英文）、在wikitech上的计划书（英文）来了解更多关于服务器切换的信息。--Hualin🎗️希望の星は青霄に昇る _Commons|Talk 2024年9月18日 (三) 15:13 (UTC)

真人傀儡？--MCC214（Sign | Contributions） 2024年9月19日 (四) 00:55 (UTC)

考虑到在当地回复得不到公平的状况，就如十多年前日语维基社群欺凌一位名为Aphaia的维基人，所以我不会回答任何回问题。

对，就像日本维基社群于接近20年前霸凌一位女性维基人Aphaia，并于维基媒体基金会的理事投票受到日本维基人的各种谩骂，换著是你，又是如何？

20年前日语维基社群怎样霸凌Aphaia，我铭铭记在心中。20年后就到我

取消文化受害者，让一个超过10万次编辑的维基人哑口无声

请把这个看过看光一遍再跟我说。

恭喜继Larry Sanger、Elon Musk之后，再多一位维基百科批评者。我这辈子要背着禁言的“无期徒刑”，做个活死人。

单看这些发言，对此人的封禁很不妥。--Akishima Yuka（留言） 2024年9月16日 (一) 09:12 (UTC)

2012年时，我就发现他会用傀儡、IP作些政治上的攻击，后来我在Liaon98帮忙下还建了CSD，并封他。但管理员Antigng不认同、与其他人选择再给他机会，见Wikipedia:页面存废讨论/记录/2018/03/05#Wikipedia:持续出没的破坏者/User:Flamelai。——Outlookxp（留言） 2024年9月17日 (二) 22:24 (UTC)
