Belépés újból és újból
Azon tűnődöm, miért van odaírva a Wikidata bejelentkezési oldalára ez:
"Keep me logged in"?
Bizonyára csak viccből írták oda, mivel hatástalan a dolog. Minden egyes alkalommal újból be kell jelentkeznem, hiába van kipipálva a fenti sor.
A Wikidata fejlesztőinek (ha vannak ilyenek) elsősorban az ilyen alapvető funkciók hibáinak javításával kellene foglalkozniuk, nem pedig a szoftver további bonyolításával olyan funkciókkal, amikre a felhasználók 0,1%-ának van igénye. misibacsi*üzenet 2018. február 10., 08:01 (CET)
- A böngésződ beállításainak adatvédelem és biztonság fülénél mire vannak állítva a sütikkel kapcsolatos mezők? Bencemac A Holtak Szószólója 2018. február 10., 09:27 (CET)
"Sütik elfogadása: mind". Jelenleg kb. 3000 sütit tárol a böngészőm. misibacsi*üzenet 2018. február 10., 18:47 (CET)
- Lehet, hogy épp a sok süti a probléma. Próbáld meg törölni az összes wikivel kapcsolatos sütit (Beállítások → Adatvédelem és biztonság → Sütik megtekintése… vagy eltávolítani az egyes sütiket → keresőmezőbe „wiki” → Összes látható eltávolítása). Ezután természetesen újra be kell jelentkezned, de ha minden jól megy, akkor csak egyszer. – Tacsipacsi vita 2018. február 10., 21:56 (CET)
Töröltem az összes sütit, majd bejelentkeztem a WP-ba. Természetesen be volt jelölve, hogy "Maradjak bejelentkezve". Most azt a hibaüzenetet adja időnként, hogy a "WP-ba nem vagy bejelentkezve". Ilyenkor újból bejelentkezek és bejelölöm, hogy "Maradjak bejelentkezve". Jelenleg 339 süti aktív, sok közülük WP, vagy wiki* tartományban van.
Ugyanaz a böngészőm, és közben még a verziója sem frissült. Pár napja csinálja ezt és csak a WP-val, pedig más oldalakat is rendszeresen használok, ahol kell név/jelszó a belépéshez, de ha ott nem lépek ki, nem felejt el. misibacsi*üzenet 2018. február 12., 05:00 (CET)
Nem értem. Van egy korlátozás, hogy egy weboldalon hány süti lehet összesen (itt a wikipedia.org számít, nem a hu.wiki.x.io) – ez emlékeim szerint néhány ezer, vagyis az első esetben okozhatta a problémát (bár pont nem a Wikidatánál kellett volna kibuknia), 3-400 sütinél nem szabadna. Nekem hasonló problémáim voltak néhány napja a Wikikönyvekkel, de az összes süti törlésével megoldódtak. (Igaz, én tényleg az összes sütit töröltem, nem csak a wikihez kapcsolódóakat, de ennek nem kéne számítania. Ennek ellenére megpróbálhatod, ha felméred a következményeit – minden weboldalról ki leszel jelentkezve, és az összes sütiben tárolt beállítás elveszik.) Esetleg próbálkozz a vírusirtóval is, bár nem tűnik nagyon vírus következményének. – Tacsipacsi vita 2018. február 12., 22:18 (CET)
- Leggyakrabban a hu.wiki.x.io-ra lépek be, így most a probléma itt jelentkezik minden nap. Van vírusirtóm (Avast), amit rendszeresen frissítek és futtatok, de miért pont a bejelentkezés romlana el és hogyan, ha a sütik ott vannak? febr. 11-én az összes sütit töröltem a böngészőmben. A probléma még mindig fennáll. misibacsi*üzenet 2018. február 13., 17:59 (CET)
- Fogalmam sincs. Ez csak egy utolsó utáni lehetőségként jutott eszembe, minthogy nincs semmilyen más ötletem. Illetve egy még most eszembe jutott: próbálj meg kijelentkezni és visszajelentkezni: ez nem egyenértékű a sütik törlésével – valami történik a szerveren is, ugyanis ettől az összes eszközön ki leszel jelentkezve. (Éppen ezért érdemes lehet biztonsági okokból „békeidőben” is néha megejteni ezt, ha nem csak és kizárólag egyetlen gépről szerkesztesz – előfordulhat, hogy valahol valamiért véletlenül elfelejtesz kijelentkezni.) – Tacsipacsi vita 2018. február 13., 21:31 (CET)

Wikidata weekly summary #300
- Welcome to the 300th Weekly Summary!
The weekly newsletter was started by Lydia at the very beginning of the Wikidata project, even before the first deployment, to keep the community informed about the developments, the new projects and tools. More than five years later, the newsletter is still there, its content powered by the community, and sent every week all along the years. I wanted to say a warm "thank you!" to each person who helped filling the Weekly Summary <3
Over the past years, as you know, Wikidata has grown a lot. More data, more tools, more editors and reusers, more exciting projects led by the community. The Weekly Summary has evolved with us, and the 300th edition seems a good moment to ask you all your suggestions about the newsletter, how it could continue evolving, and how you would like to improve it.
On that purpose, you can find a feedback page to express all your ideas about the Weekly Summary. We're very interested to know more about your reading habits, the parts you're more or less interested in, the new topics you would like to share with the community. Thanks in advance for filling it.
I stay available anytime to discuss with you, feel free to contact me if you have any question or concern! Cheers, Léa
