How do Citation Style 1 templates Work?
[edit]I've been attempting to understand how the citations system on wikipedia works, any why it is so complicated. Specifically...
- what does the general architecture look like?
- how does LUA interact with the templates?
If you could give me a general overview or some links to resources, that'd be great!

random (incorrect?) illustration in Wikidata page
[edit]I have not been able to find out why a Claude Monet painting is present as illustration in the Wikidata box on
Category:19th-century physicians from Germany
I have visited the Wikidata authority file (Q6281401) and find no reference to any illustration. (I only know/believe that the only connection between 19th Century Physicians and this painting is that they were both in the 19th Century.) Please help. Seauton (talk) 18:49, 2 December 2024 (UTC)
- It's the image on d:Q6955, not sure if it's relevant enough to fully cover the topic. Sjoerd de Bruin (talk) 19:06, 2 December 2024 (UTC)
Adjusting Anchor Link Scrolling in MediaWiki
[edit]I am working on customizing our MediaWiki installation. We are using the Medik skin and have encountered an issue: when an anchor link is clicked, it does not position itself correctly on the page. I would like to know the best way to resolve this issue and implement smooth and precise scrolling behavior. Is there a way to implement this functionality globally? Any guidance, including code examples or documentation references, would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time and support! S-farfab (talk) 10:37, 5 December 2024 (UTC)
