Template talk:Archive/Archive 1

Fixed Talk page.
Talk page was talk page I changed it to talk page And I tested it and on the template page it takes me here. --Actown 06:47, 5 November 2005 (UTC)

Category.Archived ?
I think this template as well as Template:Talkarchive should be placed into a category such as Archive, Archived, or Archives, thereby allowing a quick check using Recentchangeslinked of any clueless edits or vandalism done to any archived pages (barring template removal/blanking). Example: Uncyclopedia:Special:Recentchangeslinked/Category:Archives Splarka (rant) 05:07, 23 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Ah, there we go. Check out the newly created subcategories in Category:Wikipedia history. They're organized by (for Archive) or  (for Talkarchive). ~MDD4696 04:29, 20 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Very groovy. Splarka (rant) 07:06, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

Subpages
When the template is used on a subpage, the talk page is attached to the. Should  not be used instead? --Caorongjin (talk) 21:35, 11 June 2019 (UTC)

Text changes
The merged template currently has the following texts:
 * For talk spaces: This page is an archive of past discussions. Do not edit the contents of this page. If you wish to start a new discussion or revive an old one, please do so on the |current talk page.
 * For talk spaces: This page is an archive. Do not edit the contents of this page. Please direct any additional comments to the |current talk page.

I would propose changing this to
 * For talk spaces: This page is an archive of past discussions. Do not edit the contents of this page. If you wish to start a new discussion or revive an old one, please do so on the |current talk page.
 * For talk spaces: This page is an archive of past discussions. Do not edit the contents of this page. If you wish to start a new discussion or revive an old one, please do so on the |current discussion page.

The only difference between the namespaces are then that we don't refer to talk pages at all when it's not on a talk page. and that instead of linking to the talk page it links to the parent page (non-subpage or whatever you would call it). This also adds a period parameter for non-talk archives. --Trialpears (talk) 22:10, 29 July 2020 (UTC)
 * and  don't lead to the same target. Is that on purpose? --Gonnym (talk) 07:16, 30 July 2020 (UTC)
 * It is on purpose. If you are at say Village pump (technical)/Archive 1 you should not be directed to Wikipedia talk:Village pump (technical) but Village pump (technical). --Trialpears (talk) 10:09, 30 July 2020 (UTC)
