User:Lupin/Pages with buggy previews
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is a list of pages with popup previews which are not as Nature intended. Please feel free to add more pages you find, and suggest fixes to my regexes if you're into that sort of thing.
[edit] Currently broken
- North America, Tennessee Williams - triple ] confuses Previewmaker
- Escherichia coli - ideally,
close brackets ortreat brackets as one sentence - Wikipedia:Browse - odd page, but just gives |}
- Great Googly Moogly - blockquotes are problematic (currently they're just deleted).
- User:Wiki_brah - I only get the first two words previewed while I'm set to receive the first 6 sentences. Maybe a problem with the exclamation marks?
- [Thanks for being the first person other than me to add to this page!] This is because we extract the first two pars only. Here, the second "sentence" doesn't end until the third par.
- Singular they - livepreview bug, methinks
- Whose Line Is It Anyway? - question marks give in main link
-
- Note: works in Opera, Konq and FF; ? ignored in IE
- Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2005-09-12/Anti-vandal_tools - very long thin image needs to be tamed!
- User_talk:MathKnight#Coastal_Road_Massacre_images Intra-wiki links (e.g., [[he:...]]) are ignored (missing) in the preview.
- When previewing reference markers, the preview should supply the relevant endnote text, just as it currently does for foo#bar - an anchor bug, methinks... altmany 10:22, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
- Krav_Maga#Haganah - When previewing a sub-section reference (foo#bar), then bar's section-top image (if present) should take precedent over foo's page-top image. altmany 10:22, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
- Ed Green: most of the time the popup content doesn't show up. Especially when accessed from my watchlist. I got an empty little square, or an empty rectangle (normal popup width, but no height). Lvr 09:59, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
- Carnegie Mellon University - the second paragraph is being previewed rather than the first. Thryduulf 08:53, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
- Union Jack - the first section is previewed, rather than the start of the article. -- Mithent 20:57, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
- Sky+ history page Sky+ history page II - When previewing the history page, the popup gives a list of changes of the article Sky (cf Sky history page), omitting the +. Also, trying to preview an individual edit of Sky+, the popup gives "Empty revision, maybe non-existent" for both before and after. AthlonBoy 13:52, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
- Section stuff broken Lupin|talk|popups 04:53, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
- Dixie (song), Alexander the Great - currently choking on <ref> tag and stopping preview at that point, rather than stripping. -- Mithent 02:33, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
- Probably (South Park) - cuts off the question mark at the end of the link to "Do the Handicapped Go to Hell?"
[edit] Should work now
- Dixie (song) (today's Main Page featured article) - reference markers should be stripped from the preview. e.g., "19th century,[1]" previews as: "19th century,Nathan 248.". altmany 17:32, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
- Carolina Kostner and Tugba Karademir- both (perhaps others as well) display only }} rather than intro text. Seems to be picking up on }} at end of infobox. Note: I'm using IE, so it's possible (likely?) it's just a bug with this browser. EWS23 | (Leave me a message!) 04:56, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
- Nope - also a problem in FF 1.5 altmany 06:33, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
- Live & Kicking, seems to choke on the ampresand. --AySz88^-^ 22:29, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
- I, D'oh-Bot - previews as: Error /**/ /**/
- Prolly just overloaded servers?
- Drooling (with template-killing off)
- Ulnar nerve - just shows a | instead of content
- Israel Defense Forces - the 1st & 2nd images are located in a table ( {{Template:IDFTable}} ) and are skipped - the image displayed is actually the third, which is less relevant. I assume this happens with all similar pages.
- Yes, the image shown in the popup is the first image in the raw wikitext, not the first image on the page. Changing that behaviour would be hard and make things slow, so I'm not going to do so. Lupin|talk|popups 19:11, 25 November 2005 (UTC)
Special:Log and all other Special: pages
- Japanese bobtail - redirect code doesn't like pipes
- Malaysia
- The Book of the Courtier
- University of Wisconsin-Madison
- Tamil language - removing ^| lines is a bad idea.
- Template:Opentask - has a link to itself with the words tasks you can do the popup displays unformatted wikitext. You can see this template in action on the Community_Portal Dalf | Talk 04:37, 22 November 2005 (UTC)
- Yes, templates are shown "raw". This was added to fulfill a feature request, so I don't consider it to be a bug. Lupin|talk|popups 19:11, 25 November 2005 (UTC)
- Aluminium - previews as simply "x" – ABCDe✉ 18:47, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
Francois I of France,Francis I of France- now works, for some reason. BTW, that was a funny edit :) Zocky 12:43, 16 December 2005 (UTC)- Procyonidae - don't break sentences on initials (with popupPreviewFirstParOnly=false)
User:PuckSmith- Skips over everything down to the section 2. I'm getting the same results with Firefox 1.5, Opera 8.5 and IE 6. I'm currently looking at the source code both on the Wiki side and how my browsers are seeing it.--◀Pucktalk▶ 13:53, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
- It was caused by way too many divs and tables at the start of the page. Works great now.--◀Pucktalk▶ 13:28, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
- Ichthys - what should we do with SVG images?
- Heroin now fixed - was caused by pairing {| with <table>
- Isis (h2/h3/par should get either all of that or h3/par; it just gets h3)
- Japan (italic intro text included)
- Now fixed in article source - the "—" was out of italics. Maybe paragraphs that include nothing but italicised text and/or interpunction should be excluded.
- Jelly fungi - taxobox detection needs refinement (ignore "taxobox begin/end placement" templates)
- User_talk:Lupin - my oh my. this is odd.
- Kingdom of Ireland - multiple italic indented paragraphs, which some non-italic and bold bits
- Singer (2 pars? why?)
- SGR - uses TLAdisambig, but not recognized as a disambig
- Transformer gives a table fragment
- England, Wales (table problems)
- Roe v. Wade small, problematic table
- User:Dbenbenn - image tag with square brackets
- American English - over-zealous pruning of italic pages
- Raja Yoga - doubtless another italics-induced calamity
- Osiris - maybe the italics hacks should come after html tag removal
- Politics
- Philosophy - looks like section headings needn't begin lines. or something
- 1968 in film - should kill divs
- Satan - i.e. is not a sentence ending. i.?e.|e.?g.|n.?b.|sic.|etc.| any more?
- United Kingdom
- Goat - taxobox :-( fix idea: delete blocks of lines
- that won't work - eg Deer. just do a special taxobox case (yuck)
- Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi
- Alexander the Great
(livepreview bug? not sure)'''{{template}}''' is a problem. hm. could replace templates with spaces instead of deleting? - Genetically modified food - blank. category tag gets in the way - delete not just images, but also category "links"
- Cult figure (linkus interruptus) - Dr., Mr. Mrs. Ms. don't usually end sentences
