Template talk:Tiw

Potential screw-up
Tough, lots of inclusions not only on help pages. If the original version from Meta breaks whatever you're doing with please replace it by.

used to be a redirection to for some months (?), and I hope that the updated "real"  from Meta is compatible with , but "hope" isn't "sure". Sorry for the confusion, IIRC it was my misguided attempt to make "consistent" with, but the "real" is a bit more sophisticated than, it works with templates in any Wikipedia, not only the English Wikipedia. --&#160;Omniplex 15:34, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

Please replace the current code with...

(code previously here now out-of-date)

... i.e. makes the parenthesis secondary and uses hlist to separate the links within. The changes are cosmetic.

 * Red information icon with gradient background.svg Not done: please make your requested changes to the template's sandbox first; see WP:TESTCASES. — &#123;&#123;U&#124;Technical 13&#125;&#125; (t • e • c) 19:28, 17 April 2014 (UTC)


 * This template doesn't have a sandbox or testcases. How about WP:BRD, especially as this isn't a particularly profound template..? Sardanaphalus (talk) 15:00, 24 April 2014 (UTC)


 * Red information icon with gradient background.svg Not done: please make your requested changes to the template's sandbox first; see WP:TESTCASES. Just because those pages don't currently exist doesn't mean you can't create them, and this change should be tested via sandbox before going live. Templates, due to their transclusion or substitution and the fact that every change is cascaded across every transclusion really should have all changes sandboxed to make sure they are right unless it is a simple punctuation or case fix. — &#123;&#123;U&#124;Technical 13&#125;&#125; (t • e • c) 22:15, 24 April 2014 (UTC)


 * Template:Tiw/sandbox and Template:Tiw/testcases just created. If all now acceptable, this is the sandbox version to use. Sardanaphalus (talk) 13:32, 15 May 2014 (UTC)
 * I've just dropped the protection level to semi-protection as the template only had 300 transclusions, and most of them are in the talk namespace. You should be able to edit this yourself now. — Mr. Stradivarius  ♪ talk ♪ 15:02, 15 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Also, I agree with Technical 13 - even if the template is now semi-protected, it's still a good idea to test changes in the sandbox before updating the main template. Learning how to do that will also help you if you want to get the template editor right in the future. Best — Mr. Stradivarius  ♪ talk ♪ 15:03, 15 May 2014 (UTC)


 * Understood. Thank you. Sardanaphalus (talk) 17:34, 15 May 2014 (UTC)
