Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Single/2025-01-15 is nearly empty, and Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Single shows the list of stories (slightly broken) but not the stories itself. @JPxG: can you take a look? FunIsOptional (talk) (please use ping!) 08:07, 15 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

In bed but I think it is https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2025-01-15/Op-ed -- throwing a ref error is what the single page says. Try

intitle:"Signpost/2025-01-15" insource:/\<ref/

to find ref tags in articles ? I would appreciatr someone helping eith this. jp×g🗯️ 08:20, 15 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, God knows what is actually wrong -- I am severely in need of going back to bed -- but I have gotten some grotesque trailer-park hack to work so that people can, at least, read a working single-page edition for these first few hours. This should be diagnosed and fixed when I wake up. Thanks to @Tamzin: for figuring out that just transclusing the articles directly worked... jp×g🗯️ 08:50, 15 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! FunIsOptional (talk) (please use ping!) 09:04, 15 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like the original version of the single page edition works now, but Post‐expand include size: 2003573/2097152 bytes is really close to the limit. You are probably right that the calculator examples take up quite a bit of that limit (The calculator article is 892980 / 2097152 bytes which is 43% of that limit).

Possibly unrelated to the above, I cleaned up some mismatched block and article start/end tags that were causing some of the articles to be too narrow in the single-page edition. A check for matching start/end templates could go on the publication checklist. – Jonesey95 (talk) 18:01, 16 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I've tried to write a sequel to my "How to make friends" guide here. Input is welcome. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 21:48, 25 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I can see three red links instead of the relevant sections. --2A04:4A43:909F:F990:D0:B7A6:F407:709A (talk) 02:22, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Appears to be caused by that emergency hack by JPxG above. I've reverted to the older "unhacked" version which appears to be working. FunIsOptional (talk) (please use ping!) 06:39, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed that the Signpost currently posts on Twitter, Facebook, and Mastodon. I would like to suggest potentially branching out to Bluesky. It is a very popular Twitter alternative, with over 30 million accounts, and a lot of former Twitter users have moved over. QuicoleJR (talk) 20:13, 17 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
