Hey Frietjes, could you update the tracking? I think the parameter list is out of sync. Also, the logic for the image captions seems strange. Thanks! Plastikspork ―Œ(talk) 18:57, 12 July 2020 (UTC)
|formed=

|{agencyname=
". I recently added TemplateData and using the monthly parameter usage report I see that |imagesize=
is still used in several articles. Originally, the code included both |imagesize=
and |image_size=
with |imagesize=
removed in Rehman's re-write in April 2018. |imagesize=
will need to be replaced with underscore |image_size=
in the articles. I want to see what articles are using "Local civilian agency" for the "General nature" label. It is tricky as the parameter |local=
has two uses in the code for the "General nature" label. Firstly, it changes |police=
from "Civilian police" to "Local civilian police" when used together. Secondly, |local=
can also be used in isolation to display "Local civilian agency". Frietjes explains in the section above, {{Infobox law enforcement agency|military=|provost=|gendarmerie=|local=y}}. Is there a way to generate a list of all articles that use |local=
for "Local civilian agency" in isolation without |police=
? As I am considering removing it or renaming etc.. Usage report shows |local=
is used 689 times.--

. You can find the entries in
Category:Pages using law enforcement agency with local civilian agency general nature and
Category:Pages using law enforcement agency with local civilian police general nature. I also added
Category:Pages using law enforcement agency with civilian police general nature, but I don't think you were interested in that one :) Let me know if need more tracking. Thanks!

|police=
was blank. I have changed (4) so that it now checks that |police=
is blank which means now only local civilian police displays. I think this was the intention of the infobox code author Pee Tern (now Aoziwe), I discussed this a few weeks ago
User talk:Aoziwe on their talk trying to understand |local=
. An agency that didn't use the word police was termed a local civilian agency.--

to |speciality6=
to perhaps revise the wording and add new ones. From the monthly parameter usage report I can see the unique values for |speciality2=
to |speciality5=
but not |speciality1=
which has over > 50 unique values. Is there another way to see the unique values of |speciality1=
? Otherwise, I need to check each of the 216 articles that use |speciality1=
. thanks --

The header for vehicles, boats, aircraft and animals parameters is "Facilities". I propose separating these with a new header "Equipment". This leaves stations, airbases and lockups parameters which are buildings with the Facilities header. I created a
test case. Some definitions of facilities do include equipment. I prefer a precise heading. The documentation advises editors they can use the buildings parameters for equipment as well. The usage report shows that |lockuptype=
does not have any equipment values so separating shouldn't affect any articles.--

Hi @
Procrastinater: I reverted your edit to the infobox as you removed the |Dissolved=
parameter. What is the purpose of the new parameter you wish to add |Colours=
? In the future instead of changing the live infobox you can use the infobox sandbox
Template:Infobox law enforcement agency/sandbox for testing and view your changes at
Template:Infobox law enforcement agency/testcases. Regards,

Should read “overseen by” or “supervised by”. An overview is a summary. Kaihsu ( talk) 22:33, 8 March 2024 (UTC)

Plastikspork: Hi, you helped me with tracking a few years ago. I was hoping you might be able to help again. I need a tracking category for |overviewbody=
. I am replacing |overviewbody=
with |oversightbody=
. I have been using the TemplateData monthly parameter usage report to find articles using |overviewbody=
. Thanks
