NULLs edit

These script errors should probably be corrected. (@Jalexander-WMF:). Ruslik (talk) 08:43, 6 June 2015 (UTC)Reply

@Ruslik0: They're not actually script errors on my part at least, I was confused by them too, and so looked and they're actually eligible users who either have "NULL" listed as their homewiki (158) or a blank home wiki db (2). I had typed in NULL for the blank users but on 2nd thought that's just more confusing since there is another NULL further up the list so I've moved it back to 'blank' which is what it is in the database. I'm not honestly sure if they are expected in the database or not, pinging random people I trust to maybe know the answer to that: @Legoktm: @Krenair:Jalexander--WMF 08:09, 7 June 2015 (UTC)Reply
I'm not sure either. It does appear that some users still get created without a home DB, we've had a huge number this year alone. Perhaps @Reedy: (who wrote populateHomeDB.php) or @CSteipp (WMF): know. Also I noticed that you have cut off the 'ary' at the end of 'wiktionary' in these entries. --Krenair (talkcontribs) 13:18, 7 June 2015 (UTC)Reply
Ahh, that was almost certainly a screw up during my search/replace work (which is how I added all of the formatnum wrappings) I'll clean it up :) Jalexander--WMF 20:48, 7 June 2015 (UTC)Reply
