ActivelyDisinterested, or AD, or they, but not LCU. I generally deal with technical issues around WP:V, one day I hope to upgrade Wik.ipedia.Pro's perceived reliability from meme worthy to just unreliable.

If I've made a comment, and it appears backwards to a previous comment I've made or doesn't quite make sense, then it's likely I've missed "n't" or "not" somewhere. No I don't know why I do that.

If I corrected an error that you couldn't see any error message for, you need to turn these error messages on as detailed in Category:Harv and Sfn no-target errors.

If you are trying to deal with an new editor/IP (creating pages with / adding content that is) broken and poorly translated about Papua New Guinea see LTA Sony Esau Mbisikmbo.


Stuff to remember

{{harvc}}, {{Db-r2}}, {{Copyvio-revdel}}, MOS:SANDWICH, MOS:IMGSIZE, MOS:SECTIONLOC, MOS:CURLY, WP:PAREN, MOS:ORDER, WP:CS:EMBED, Module:Footnotes/whitelist, phab:T355914, as I'm always forgetting the right links.

For when I need to edit them:
User:ActivelyDisinterested/common.js
User:ActivelyDisinterested/common.css

{{navbox}} automatically adds the class nowraplinks which can be overridden, for example with |listclass=wraplinks.

Editting

In general I'm currently I should be fixing no target errors, such edits usually have a summary including the tracking category:
Harv and Sfn no-target errors(4,605)
For when it doesn't update correctly
These seem to have some common causes.
Process for whitelisting False positives

I edit nearly exclusively on mobile using the desktop site, and apart from a few edits using reFill to de-duplicate refs or InternetArchiveBot to add archives, all my edits are done manually in source.

@&#£ing @&#% Category:Pages with broken anchors has 69,898 entries.
