Due to an increased workload of my university course, I will not be reviewing drafts or edit requests until September. I'm happy to quickly look at articles and provide some basic feedback, but I'm unable to provide full reviews and it may take a few days to get a response. I recommend contacting other editors for draft reviews or edit requests. If you have an urgent request please send me an email.
This is Encoded's talk page, where you can send him messages and comments.
Hello Encoded. Hope you are well and your studies are successful. Your recent (this June) and previous (October 2024) help on the Energy Capital Partners article is greatly appreciated. Recently, a different editor deleted some of the content you had added, and I'd be grateful if you took the time to review and consider reinserting it. Specifically, it was several portions of the Acquisitions section which had reliable sourcing to support inclusion. Thank you for your time and help, Californiabri19 (talk) 23:24, 22 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @Californiabri19, thank you for your kind message! I'm currently taking a break from most tasks on Wikipedia as my workload at university has increased drastically. I had a quick look at the diffs in question and I understand why they were removed but personally I'm not sure if I would have done so myself since I think it's fine to remain. I'd recommend gaining consensus on the issue by asking some uninvolved editors to review it. You can contact another editor from this list may also help as many of them also do COI edit reviews. Sorry I'm not able to help more I haven't much time nowadays unfortunately! Hope this helps, EncodedTalk 💬23:13, 25 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hi! Thanks for all your work on the edit request queue as of late. Just flagging I replied to some of your feedback on Talk:Kathy Warden. I see you're busy these days, so you'd probably prefer I open a new request, but wanted to give you a heads up just in case. Wishing you well with your studies!

Hello everyone, and welcome to the 27th issue of the Wikipedia Scripts++ Newsletter, covering all our favorite new and updated user scripts since 2025! Boy, does it feel good to kick off the year with an issue. Yep, it's been a year since we cleared out the 2022-2024 backlog with issues 23 and 24! Good times. Though in this case "a year" just means... 6 months? 😯 The salience of whatever joke I was planning to make here has vanished speedily. Aaron Liu (talk) 21:00, 31 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

WikiTextExpander by Polygnotus, is this edition's featured script. At the click of a configurable hotkey, this script will find and replace or link a configurable list of phrases within the selected text in all source editors (even in the comment/reply field!). Besides allowing the quick insertion of templated messages, this script greatly mitigates the WP:WTF? problem by providing both the legibility of familiar words and the convenience of shortcuts. And to those asking, the capitalization of "Wikitext" as "WikiText" was a necessary sacrifice for far-more-memorable acronymy.
CanonNi: AlertAssistant has been fixed and rewritten using OOUI instead of Twinkle's Morebits. Such modern, very tool. (Do note that the maintainer has since become inactive.)
NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh/AjaxLoader has been updated to use modern JS APIs that replace the browser's URL bar with the link you clicked on to load in place. The "back" (and "forward") buttons also work now. Cool, innit?
andrybak: Unsigned helper no longer shows an error when the message to sign was added in the earliest 50 revisions of a page's history. This is especially relevant to pages with short histories.
BilledMammal/Move+ needs updating to order list of pages handle lists of pages to move correctly regardless of the discussion's page, so that we may avoid repeating fiasco history.
In breaking m:Tech/News, Gadgets can now include .vue files. This makes it easier to develop modern user interfaces using Vue.js, in particular using Codex, the official design system of Wikimedia. Codex icons are now also available. The documentation has examples.
Appo/Globstory integrates OpenHistoryMap, updating the map whenever hovering/clicking on a location or year, the latter of which changes the map to be (hopefully) accurate to the year selected. It's pretty interesting.
linkinfo Somewhat similar to WP:NavPops, Awesome Aasim/linkinfo(pictured) provides a collection of links to replace the right-click context menu, presented beautifully.
PreviousDiscussions provides a link to search for your username on subpages of another user's userpage and talkpage conveniently.
Twineeea/noRedLinks brings you to the "read" instead of the "create" tab when you visit a red link. Contemplate life's mysteries as you stare into the blank! Deeply.
No, this is not going to be the enduring tradition of S++ for the future. This was meant to be a joke for the special occasion on the first day of the fourth month but was delayed by four months because I'm lazy.
