			*::I agree that there should be guidance set in place, however given other stewards fall into the range of anywhere between 0-30% of their checks not having reasons, and you have 90% of your checks without reasons, I would expect a detailed explanation of your checks given how they are almost all unreasoned or with vague reasons, and I will add some below that I'd want reasoning shared for based on a vague skim of the log:
			:: 15 checks on Gasgas11 spread between March 29th and April 1st
			:: Checks on ThatRobloxianuser2K6 and Ineedhelp in January for which I can find no context within the CheckUser log for why these would have at all been performed, the only context I can find is some new user esque messages they left on talk pages on Meta. I personally see it as misconduct, regardless of whether or not there are established requirements to be checking people simply because they are confused about why their wiki request was declined or other things about how the site works.
			:: Spacetrain31 in February — checking someone who was setting up a competitor farm is again an interesting thing to do
			:: Lvst7070 in April — they appeared not to be doing anything aside from asking a few things on Steward requests
			*::If you are unable to publicly share reasoning for the above, I'd prefer you to paraphrase it vaguely and then email stewards@wikioasis.org the full reasoning for the sake of keeping all informed on the matter.
			*::Your comment at the end of your request appears to me as an attempt to divert attention from your usage of CU to instead establish a policy that would get you off the hook for your past checks. --'''[[User:Zippy\|zippy]]'''[[User talk:Zippy\|bonzo]]''' ([[Special:Contributions/Zippy\|c]] • [[Special:CentralAuth/Zippy\|ca]]) 12:20, 24 May 2026 (UTC)

Created page with "{{Documentation subpage}} {{Lua|Module:Fallback}} == Usage == Returns a value depending on a given language, using reasonable fallbacks if the contents of the switch does not directly map a value for that language. The given language to test, if it's not specified, is the user interface language of the viewing user. The language of the mapped value to return when there's no match in the switch for the given language (or one of its fallbacks), is English (<span style="..."

New page

{{Documentation subpage}}
{{Lua|Module:Fallback}}

== Usage ==
Returns a value depending on a given language, using reasonable fallbacks if the contents of the switch does not directly map a value for that language.

The given language to test, if it's not specified, is the user interface language of the viewing user.

The language of the mapped value to return when there's no match in the switch for the given language (or one of its fallbacks), is English (en) unless another default language is specified (which will be tried after standard fallbacks but before English).

== Parameters ==
* lang=<code>''language-code''</code> (optional) — the switch by default will return a value according to the viewing user, this parameter allows changing this behavior.
* <code>''language-code''</code>=''“Mapped value in <code>language-code</code>”'' — maps the language to a value.
*: Defining this parameter for a language that is used as a reasonable fallback for one or several other languages means that you won't need to define additional parameters to map these other languages, when that value is already accurate for these other languages.
*: Commonly used languages that are used as reasonable fallbacks include major languages of the world: English (<code>en</code>), Chinese (<code>zh</code>), French (<code>fr</code>), Spanish (<code>es</code>), Arabic (<code>ar</code>), Russian (<code>ru</code>), and Indonesian (<code>id</code>); and to a lower scale, mostly as a fallback for regional languages: Hindi (<code>hi</code>), German (<code>de</code>), Portuguese (<code>pt</code>), and Dutch (<code>nl</code>).
*: But this also includes any national language which may be a reasonable fallback for a minority/regional-only language, unless the later is used across borders, such as Catalan (<code>ca</code>) or Kurdish (<code>ku</code>) which should be defined separately.
*: Usually, you don't need to provide a specific value for language variants in a different script, that are handled now by MediaWiki using builtin transliterators. This includes the two major variants of Chinese: simplified <code>zh-hans</code> and traditional <code>zh-hant</code>, the simplified variant being implied in the form used by the simpler recommended code <code>zh</code>); the traditional variant needs to be specified only if the default transliterator does not reliably convert some characters.
* default=<code>''language-code''</code> (optional) — allows to specify which language to use when reasonable fallbacks have failed. If its value matches a given item defined in the switch, the value mapped to this item will be returned when no other languages in the switch match; if the default is not specified, or does not match any item in the switch, the value mapped to English (the default language of this wiki) will be returned.
*: So the switch does not necessarily have to define an English message, but it should contain at least:
*:* <code>language-code</code>=''“Mapped value in <code>language-code</code>”'', if default=<code>''language-code''</code> is present,
*:* or en=''“Mapped value in English”'', when there's no specified default.
*: Specifying another default language (and mapping a value specifically for it) does not prohibit mapping an additional specific value for English, but English will no longer be the last fallback.
*: Note that the <code>''language-code''</code> indicated here may be arbitrary and can be a pseudo-language to specify a different value, even if it displays a message in English (or in any language).

== Supported language codes ==
Language codes do not necessarily have to one of those used in a separate edition of a Wikimedia project (such as Wikipedia or Wiktionary), it could be a language supported only on a multilingual site in a single edition, such as Incubator, Commons, MediaWiki or Meta.

But in all cases, the language codes used must be one of the language codes supported by MediaWiki for its localisation (otherwise they could be ignored in parameters of LangSwitch).

Language codes are normally insensitive to letter case, but this template will not recognize language codes specified using any uppercase letter.

Ideally those languages codes should be those recommended by the BCP 47 standard (essentially based on ISO 639, but with some restrictions, and many additions for supporting variants in different scripts, regions, orthographies, or locale conventions). So don't use the longer 3-letter language codes os ISO 639-3 if there's a 2-letter code from ISO-639-1. And don't use the 3-letter language family codes (from ISO 639-5).

The template also supports (for compatibility and to allow smooth migrations) some legacy codes used in Wikimedia projects, but that are no longer recommended (and may be blocked now for new translations in the [[Special:Translate]] page), such as the two major Chinese variants, or the old code for the ''Taraskeviza'' orthographic variant of Belarusian.

	* I don't think this is entirely a personal spat, ultimately it stems from the fact that short of me entirely leaving the project which I don't see as a feasible option without it dying a very slow and quite painful death, there is no other way to stop the constant arguments that happen internally, that are almost entirely between me and Globe. I will admit I instigate just as many arguments between us, but ultimately it's a conflict that I don't see any other way really to end.

	Hi, I am DarkMatterMan4500 from Miraheze, and I want to apply for the [[Global Patrollers]] permission here on WikiOasis, based on my experiences from Miraheze, since I have been working hard on clearing away vandalism all across the wikifarm for the [[mh:m:CVT\|counter-vandalism team]] from said wikifarm. Now, I understand that some of you may have questions and concerns for me, and I'll do my best to answer them in the best way I can, so feel free to give your [[mh:allthetropes:Brutal Honesty\|honest opinions]] without sugarcoating anything.
