Red-linked categories
Is this template supposed to be adding red-linked categories? -- &oelig; &trade; 15:44, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Problem
This template can lead to conflicts with WP:BOLDTITLE. Toccata quarta (talk) 00:17, 15 January 2013 (UTC)
 * then change the wording? all the transclusions are of the for "List of state leaders in YEAR", so are you proposing we have it use that phrase in bold? Frietjes (talk) 00:45, 15 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Either the wording should be changed, the bolding removed, or the related pages moved. I don't know what most editors would prefer, but the first two options are more practical than the third one. Toccata quarta (talk) 12:17, 13 July 2013 (UTC)

List of sovereign states
Can someone help me modify this template to (as I did for another one here) so as to include the [List of sovereign states in XXXX] on these pages? (For example, List of sovereign states in 1950.) tahc chat 20:53, 2 February 2015 (UTC)
 * done? Frietjes (talk) 19:22, 8 February 2015 (UTC)
 * It would seem that you added the link here but not on the main template. It thus does not show up on lists-- such as the current year. tahc chat 00:16, 9 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Tahc, it won't show if List of sovereign states in 2015 doesn't exist (see List of state leaders in 2014 where it does appear). Frietjes (talk) 01:10, 18 February 2015 (UTC)

Removal of international relations
Would you be willing to remove the "international relations" category from the template, as been discussed here? Marcocapelle (talk) 09:42, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Marcocapelle, as far as I can tell, it only adds that category if the category exists. Frietjes (talk) 13:59, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Per discussion quoted, it shouldn't add the category at all, because articles about (lists of) rulers are not about international relations. Marcocapelle (talk) 14:02, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Marcocapelle, okay, done. Frietjes (talk) 14:07, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

Removing automatically-added categories to transcluded pages
Hi. Just to note, I have previously queried my following concern at WP:HD and WP:THQ—with the latter referring me to bring my case here to this page. I am enquiring as to whether or not it would/could be possible to optionally remove categories that have been automatically added to a user-created article that transcludes the SLBY template. For some backstory, I have recently created a userpage within my own userspace and I am currently struggling to manually delete these categories that have been implemented by default. Thank-you.--Neve–selbert 22:00, 9 July 2016 (UTC)
 * I have added code [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:SLBY/box&diff=729172452&oldid=712334103] to only add the categories in mainspace. PrimeHunter (talk) 12:24, 10 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Many thanks, PrimeHunter.--Neve–selbert 16:52, 10 July 2016 (UTC)

Change: This is -> The following is Reason: Sounds more professional. Geardona (talk to me?) 05:59, 15 March 2024 (UTC)


 * I'm coming across this template from the edit request, and both the current and proposed texts go against MOS:THISISALIST. Maybe the introductions should be bespoke? And why is this template-protected? SWinxy (talk) 01:31, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Full-protection-unlocked.svg Not done: The page's protection level has changed since this request was placed. You should now be able to edit the page yourself. If you still seem to be unable to, please reopen the request with further details. Discussion may continue below, this just deactivates the open request since a template editor is no longer needed.
