Specify name list style for new entries for the Citations Bot
@Boghog, can you please comment on a discussion with the authors of the Citations Bot on configurable format of the name list style based on the template.

- @Boghog The citations bot is developed in such a way that where issues require consensus on Wikipedia policy, they are discussed on the [Citation Bot Talk Page](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Citation_bot). According to the discussion here, there was a consensus that the bot should use existing template {{cs1 config|name-list-style=vanc}} that was introduced in August 2023 to avoid creating any new template. I modified the pull request to support this template, and the maintainers of the citation bot on Github accepted the change. If you take the citations bot from Github, it will insert "vauthors" rather than "first1/last1" for the pages where it sees the "name-list-style=vanc" parameter for the "cs1 config" template. JFYI. Please consider updating your citation tool to always insert {{cs1 config|name-list-style=vanc}} if a page does not contain it. If you get the bot from github, you will see what regexp can be easily used to detect such template. Therefore, with that template the bot will insert vauthors and you will no longer need to patrol pages to replace first/last to vauthors, it will be done by the citations bot.

- @Boghog: - since the bot should already support {{cs1 config|name-list-style=vanc}}, I'm running a custom version of the bot to add this template to all the pages which have "vauthors" in at least one citation. Therefore, in such pages, the bot in the future should add this kind of list of authors. Maxim Masiutin (talk) 20:54, 27 December 2023 (UTC)
Requested move at Talk:3"-deamino-3"-oxonicotianamine reductase
The question posed in the RM at
Talk:3"-deamino-3"-oxonicotianamine reductase is what symbol should be used in similar titles. Currently, that article and several other articles are using a quote mark after the numeral. I suspect this should be a double prime or two single primes or two apostrophes instead. You are invited to participate in that discussion, which should take place there, not here. — BarrelProof (talk

Cell regulation
Seems like we ought to have a topic for
) 02:29, 2 January 2024 (UTC)- It probably needs a disambiguation page for the journal and for the concept. One possible redirect for the concept would be to Cell_cycle#Regulation_of_eukaryotic_cell_cycle, as cell regulation is often discussed in the context of the cell cycle. --
{{u|Mark viking}} {Talk}04:19, 2 January 2024 (UTC)- OK, I stubbed that in at Cell regulation. Dicklyon (talk) 19:21, 2 January 2024 (UTC)
