Before posting a message here please consider if this is the correct venue. If you wish to discuss me (SSSB), my edits (read the second paragragh if you have an issue with an edit request I implemented) or you wish to bring my attention to a certain matter, this is the correct venue (there are other cases where this is the correct venue).
However, this is not the correct venue to make edit requests. These requests should be made on the talk page of the page which you would like to be edited, if you request an edit on a page in which I have an interest it will appear on my watchlist, I will see it. If you have a problem with an edit request I implemented, please consider if it might not be better to respond where the edit request was made (you may use {{ping}} or {{u}} to attract my attention). Thank you, SSSB (talk)
I think you are being discriminate about which records you "choose" to see as trivia. For instance, most pitstops by a winning driver (for Verstappen) could be deemed trivia so why are you not removing that? I'm not going to revert your edit because i don't want to get banned re 3 revert rule, so i'll leave things as they are for now. Koppite1 (talk) 21:28, 7 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
To comment on your first sentence, I am covering that at the appropriate talk page. To answer your second sentence, because I didn't know that "stat" existed. To comment on your final sentence, you shouldn't revert my edit becuase the article is currently your prefered version without your "compromise". SSSB (talk) 21:33, 7 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Koppite1: my final point is really one you need to be aware of, because your comment suggests you missed the point of my last edit to the relevant page.21:40, 7 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Please look again at the Top 25 Report you just reverted. ThingsCanOnlyGetWetter made a list of his favourite UK political stories and replaced the real Top 25 with his list. Surely that isn't acceptable. 63.226.202.30 (talk) 07:48, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Island92: your reason makes sense now that youve actually mentioned that it is a sourcing issue. Next time, why don't you actually use the word "source" in your edit summary. Instead of leavong no summary at all (like the first time). Or a summary that doesn't make sense (because the FIA don't "rule" anything, the edit didn't make any claims about the Fia being the governing body, and your summary didn't mention the source or lack thereof). Honestly, your lack of a coherent edit summary is starting to become a Wikipedia:Competence is required issue. SSSB (talk) 13:45, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I was from mobile version and I wanted to make it quick. I'll take note of that next time, by explaining my edit summary much better. "Only part of FIA rule" meant to me under FIA scrutiny (and only to me obvious, as you did not get it), seeing that Stats F1.com counts only the editions under FIA scrutiny (2024 FIA Formula One World Championship Belgian Grand Prix, for example), that is running its 69th edition, not the "Belgian Grand Prix", who has reached the 80th edition of running. Regards. Island92 (talk) 15:38, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Island92: it's FIA governance, not rule or scrutiny. StatsF1 does not count events under FIa scrutiny, it counts Formula One Championship events. Stats F1 does this because its StatsF1, so it counts F1 events. If you look at the name of 2023 Belgian Grand Prix it is listed as the "Spa-Francorchamps". LXXIX Grand Prix de Belgique" LXXIX is roman numeral for 79. It lists it as the 79th Belgian Grand Prix. Likewise the Roman numerals at the StatsF1 page for the 2024 Hungarian Grand Prix identifies it as the 40th edition. SSSB (talk) 15:46, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

To a lesser extent, the same goes for PrimeHunter/Search sort. I wish someone would integrate the sorts into the sort menu instead of adding 11 portlet links.
An easily configurable script to add a link to the #p-vector-user-menu-overflow portlet with a name, target, and icon. This one should be a relatively easier one. I would do it myself, but I'm too busy rotting away on Celeste (video game).
After the ＲＩＩＪ update, Aaron Liu: Watchlyst Greybar Unsin has a dismiss button that allows you to mark an item as read in one click and cycle to the next Watchlist item.
Lordseriouspig/StatusChangerImproved is just like Enterprisey's script, except you select your status from a dropdown instead of cycling through them with a button. The WMF operates out of car-centric infrastructure anyway. Shame!
Aaron Liu has created Duplinks from Evad37/duplinks-alt; his fork adds a config variable to automatically highlight duplicate links on the loading of any page where the portlet link would've appeared.
Tired of staring at a bunch of filtering text and waiting for darn filter logs to load? Msz2001/AbuseFilter analyzer can parse abuse filters into a visual syntax tree and evaluate locally on-demand!
Polygnotus/DuplicateReferences finds references with the same link and displays the number of them along with a button to add the {{duplicated citations}} tag under the references section. Being lazy has never been easier!
fastest gun on the net Ponor/really-quick-block really quick add to contribution lists three buttons awesome
