Template talk:Userspace draft

Template-protected edit request on 18 November 2020
The AfC submission catcheck doesn't work after a page move, and the changes made didn't fix anything. –Piranha249 18:58, 18 November 2020 (UTC) –Piranha249 18:58, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

Show date of tagging next to message
The template should show the date of tagging next to the draft message, like this:

This is not a Wikipedia article: It is an individual user's work-in-progress page, and may be incomplete and/or unreliable. For guidance on developing this draft, see So you made a userspace draft. (   )

It would make it easier for maintenance and categorization along with adding the category "Userspace drafts made in ". Tali64^2, always top quality. (talk) 20:35, 16 January 2021 (UTC)

Error in wrong namespaces
The template is supposed to add Category:Misplaced userspace drafts in most namespaces, e.g. at Draft:Track (moving medium), but it appears it never does after this edit by Headbomb. Since then the switch on the namespace has ended earlier, the #default with the category has belonged to something else, and the template adds a userspace draft category without displaying anything.

 * I think that I fixed this problem. Ruslik_ Zero 18:11, 11 April 2021 (UTC)


 * , your comment here (which I've split into its own section) has absolutely nothing to do with the template in question, which is why I removed it. It isn't "editing someone else's message", it's removing completely unnecessary posts, which is perfectly acceptable. Primefac (talk) 13:12, 15 April 2021 (UTC)
 * But you removed it? Ruslik_ Zero 20:40, 15 April 2021 (UTC)
 * And by the way my comment should be in the section above. :) Ruslik_ Zero 20:43, 15 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Please explain, because I am completely lost, how a random statement about some random school pertains to a namespace detection issue, and that it "fixed this problem". Primefac (talk) 23:52, 15 April 2021 (UTC)

Edit request 26 July 2023
Description of suggested change: If page is filled out with future article title, find sources as used within this template when help is set to 'yes' should use page parameter's value. Not all drafts are placed in conveniently named subpages, and this Userspace draft template is as likely to appear in /sandbox user subpages.

 * Red information icon with gradient background.svg Not done: please make your requested changes to the template's sandbox first; see WP:TESTCASES. I think this will work, but if you are up for modifying the /sandbox page to show on the testcases page how it would work, please do so. – Jonesey95 (talk) 04:39, 27 July 2023 (UTC)
 * @Jonesey95: thank you for informing me to test these changes in the sandbox and testcases. I did so in Special:Diff/1167339408 and Special:Diff/1167340050 where I also pinged you. –Vipz (talk) 05:05, 27 July 2023 (UTC)
 * ✅ after correcting the new testcase and adding another one. The new and old testcases appeared to be working properly. Another template editor is welcome to revert or discuss this change if it broke anything. – Jonesey95 (talk) 13:54, 27 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Hey @Jonesey95, it appears to me you did not implement the proposed change to the main template. Cheers for correcting it and thank you for assistance. –Vipz (talk) 02:32, 30 July 2023 (UTC)
 * ✅ For real. * Pppery * it has begun... 13:43, 30 July 2023 (UTC)
 * , sorry about that; I've been gone for a week, so I can't reconstruct or remember exactly what happened here. I blew it, obviously. Thanks for the friendly ping, and thanks to for covering for me.  – Jonesey95 (talk) 12:11, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
