Village Pump (technical) - Replacing A File

Replacing A File

I uploaded a new version of this file at 00:22 on 22 December 2012. It's used in one article. I've edited and reloaded the article, but I still see the old version there. Why? What can I do about it? Michael Hardy (talk) 00:31, 14 December 2012 (UTC)

Hard refresh, for a first try. If you've viewed that image on that page previously, your browser cache will still show you the old version. Steven Walling (WMF) • talk 00:41, 14 December 2012 (UTC)
Most likely this is the same problem as described at #No purging on newer version of images above. --Redrose64 (talk) 09:24, 14 December 2012 (UTC)

Nothing's working. I've purged the server cache, and emptied the cache on my machine from "the beginning of time", and the old image still appears in the article. But on this present page, I see the new one. Does anyone else see the new version in tangent half-angle formula? Michael Hardy (talk) 01:40, 15 December 2012 (UTC)

I see the old image on the article. When I remove the manually specified width limit (400px), the thumbnail shows the new version (given that my default thumbnail width is 220px). The 400px version of the image isn't updating for some reason. But yes, please read #No purging on newer version of images yellowtailshark (talk) 13:39, 15 December 2012 (UTC)

Famous quotes containing the words replacing and/or file:

    I do not mean to imply that the good old days were perfect. But the institutions and structure—the web—of society needed reform, not demolition. To have cut the institutional and community strands without replacing them with new ones proved to be a form of abuse to one generation and to the next. For so many Americans, the tragedy was not in dreaming that life could be better; the tragedy was that the dreaming ended.
    Richard Louv (20th century)

    While waiting to get married, several forms of employment were acceptable. Teaching kindergarten was for those girls who stayed in school four years. The rest were secretaries, typists, file clerks, or receptionists in insurance firms or banks, preferably those owned or run by the family, but respectable enough if the boss was an upstanding Christian member of the community.
    Barbara Howar (b. 1934)
