Curious as to how come template documentation is going to auto doc, which can only be edited by admins and TEs? Now there are two open edit requests to edit the documentation. Shouldn't the documentation continue to be editable by non-TEs? P.I. Ellsworth , ed. put'er there 06:13, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
|DOC=auto
parameter and argument makes it so that the documentation cannot be edited by any user and must be edited by TEs and admins. That seems to go counter to one of the main reasons for having a separate /doc page, doesn't it? I think it makes sense for these project banner templates to be protected, but what exactly is achieved by taking the ability to edit documentation away from all users?|importance=
parameters (there are a total of five redundant (six total) instances of that parameter in the Full usage section of the {{
WikiProject Hinduism}} project banner's documentation). My grasp of Lua is very basic and I don't have a clue how to do it. That takes us back to why on Earth would we make it so that all users cannot edit the documentation? and then leave it to only editors who have a good grasp of Lua?

parameter. I still hope it says something to you about how difficult it would be for other editors who, unlike you, are not well-versed in Lua and who wouldn't dream of tackling such a problem no matter how much nor how little protection the module has. Sorry Martin, so sorry, but I still think that it should at least be made easier for editors, not more difficult, to get to where an edit needs to be made, and that should come with explicit instructions in each and every instance of auto-documentation. And the removal of redundant instances of a parameter should be a whole lot easier, in my humble and sorry opinion. Best to you!

I realize, MSGJ, that the long list of previous events on the WIR Events page is intended to facilitate searching. But as this page is transcluded on the main WIR page, it makes it difficult to see the sections which follow. I suggest you introduce a show/hide option, defaulting to hide. (It might also be useful to introduce a columns display to save horizontal space.) I would have edited the page myself but am not sufficiently familiar with the approach you have developed. If there is an easy way to undertake edits along these lines, it would be good to know how they can be made. Happy editing!-- Ipigott ( talk) 08:32, 5 April 2024 (UTC)

Hey, I was looking at Template:WikiProject Television and was wondering if the module can be updated to handle the code with less boilerplate code being written. So for example, a standard task force there is written like this:
|TF_3_LINK = Wikipedia:WikiProject Television/The Amazing Race task force
|TF_3_NAME = the Amazing Race task force
|TF_3_NESTED = The Amazing Race
I wonder if we can do something like this
|TF_style = task force
|TF_1 = The Amazing Race
|TF_2 = The Apprentice UK
and the LINK and NAME will be handled by the module automatically as it knows the style "task force" and it knows the NESTED name. If a specific task force needs to have a different value, then they can override TF_style with the same current style. This could also potentially work with ASSESSMENT_CAT and MAIN_CAT values.
Another item that can have the same treatment is the image size. Most of the images in this template use "x20px", so instead of repeatedly adding this value, we can use TF_SIZE = x20px and for any image that needs to override it they can specify a different value.
What do you think? Gonnym ( talk) 07:14, 23 April 2024 (UTC)
|TF_SIZE=
(which is documented) and |TF_TEXT=
(which is not yet documented!) which is possibly along the same lines you were thinking and recognises _NAME_, _LINK_ and _IMPORTANCE_. For example, you can define |TF_TEXT=This _PAGETYPE_ is supported by the [[_LINK_|_NAME_]] task force and assessed as _IMPORTANCE_-importance

Hi Martin.
After editing a page, on the relevant source, it shows "Cited by user Wenyunlu on 25 Apr 2024" - how I remove this user information?
Thank you

I’ve just had a note about vandalising wiki!!! How exactly have I vandalised anything? I would say the ‘editors’ that objected to the factual info I put up yesterday didn’t in fact edit they just removed my edit completely - which seems more like vandalism to me. I was accused of being paid which I wasn’t. This gallery is a non commercial space that needs help and doesn’t have big marketing teams behind it as most galleries do. I am amazed wiki allows for those publicity rife spaces which do have paid marketing teams etc etc and is going after someone trying to do good instead… It’s a bit depressing, frankly, as I was trying to flesh out the wiki site with people and places that are much more ethical environments -- BeacHal1 ( talk) 09:35, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
is there an ur document, source of where and how the whole banner shell thing came about? As a long term talk page tagger I find it hard to explain to people why and how the enthusiasm rose. I have been a rater user since it started (I think) and along with a few other issues with talk pages and the very weird array of projects that wikipedia has to offer, I think I might have missed the point where this industry came from. Any clues or links would be appreciated, thanks. JarrahTree 04:34, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
