Thanks for the More or Less reference about Mercury being the nearest planet on average to Earth. I was very surprised by the program and even more so when I asked my Google assistant this morning "what is the nearest planet to earth?" and it responded "According to Wikipedia Mercury ..." and quoted your entry. Well done and thank you! PeterGrecian (talk) 14:07, 18 January 2019 (UTC) |

EB1911 citations
Thank you for your recent contributions to the
AutoWikiBrowser
Thanks again for your contributions to the 1911 verification project. I don't know if you are familiar with AutoWikiBrowser (AWB); I use it exclusively for edits in this project because of the patterns that keep repeating.
For example, for your most recent edits you can load up AWB's article list from the links in the "S" page, step through the articles, use a hotkey to insert * {{cite EB1911|wstitle=%%key%%|volume=23|page=}}\n
and fix that up (the title will fairly often need an edit), select one of your own custom comments, and save with a single click. AWB has a list of common, safe fixes that can be applied automatically and you can add your own. You use a config file to keep your settings and your place. AWB does have a learning curve, but can repay the time fairly quickly if you intend to do a lot of these edits. I also use an
If you want I can share a starter config file for the "S" page; let me know. If you want to go it alone, here's one hint that always trips me up when starting a new config: on the "Skip" tab, uncheck "Only genfixes", or it will silently skip articles you want to edit. Hope this is useful. David Brooks (talk) 15:30, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
