Template talk:WikiProject Women's sport

Request
Would you mind taking a look at my recent changes to the sandbox? I can't figure out why it's not displaying MMA -> WNBA in the banner. Any input is appreciated. Thanks! Hmlarson (talk) 22:13, 29 April 2017 (UTC)
 * If you look at the documentation for (and ) you will see that the numbers go up to 10; it does state "the value of   is an integer between 1 and 10". However, both templates may be used multiple times without theoretical limit (the record is held, I believe, by  which has eleven sets of up to ten). -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 19:17, 30 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Thank you . Good to know for future use + appreciate you updating the sandbox. I believe the sandbox is ready to be pushed live if everything looks ok. Hmlarson (talk) 21:14, 30 April 2017 (UTC)

WP Women category
can you demonstrate where the Category:WikiProject Women articles should be added here? Hmlarson (talk) 03:27, 14 September 2017 (UTC)
 * I added:
 * Please confirm if anything else needed or if this code needs to be changed. Thank you. Hmlarson (talk) 05:13, 14 September 2017 (UTC)
 * I don't think that will work 100% of the time. Apart from using the entity   instead of a straight apostrophe, you've placed the  template into the HOOK_NESTED parameter, so it won't trigger when  is not being used. Also, there is no need to drop code blobs into the talk page if the sandbox is being used properly. -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 08:14, 14 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks Are you saying to change the   to a straight apostrophe? I included  at the end after {{WPBannerMeta/hooks/taskforces ... where should it be moved to? Good thing the sandbox is for testing. Hmlarson (talk) 14:17, 14 September 2017 (UTC)
 * You didn't put it after the {{tlx|WPBannerMeta/hooks/taskforces}}, i.e. in the {{para|HOOK_TF}} parameter; you put it after the {{tlx|WPBannerMeta/hooks/tfnested}}, in the HOOK_NESTED parameter. -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 22:32, 14 September 2017 (UTC)
 * {{reply|Redrose64}} I've made the change + tested. Can you take a look? Hmlarson (talk) 05:57, 5 October 2017 (UTC)

{{ping|koavf}} - I see you have template editing rights. Is this something you might assist with for this template as well as Template: WikiProject Women writers/sandbox? I have added the Category:WikiProject Women articles category so that articles tagged with these projects will appear in the article alerts for WP:WOMEN. Thank you.

 * The code looks fine; but are WikiProject Women happy for {{cl|WikiProject Women articles}} to suddenly receive hundreds of extra pages? Is there a discussion somewhere that shows that they are at least aware of this proposal? IIRC there were recent disagreements about the addition of the main WikiProject Women template to talk pages that were already bearing the women's sports/writers/etc. templates. -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 19:09, 13 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Yes, it's here: Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Women/Archive 10. See also Template talk:WikiProject Women writers. Hmlarson (talk) 19:16, 13 October 2017 (UTC)
 * OK, {{done}} -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 20:21, 13 October 2017 (UTC)

Add importance categories for task forces?
Currently, the quality categories are set up for the task forces, but not the importance categories (e.g. there is "Category:Women's tennis articles by quality", but not "Category:Women's tennis articles by importance"). Is it possible to add the importance categories as well? Thank you! Sportsfan77777 (talk) 19:25, 3 November 2019 (UTC)


 * I think I know how to add it based on other WikiProjects with task forces that have done this. (You just need to add e.g. this commented out line ) However, I don't have template-editing privileges. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 19:43, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
 * The thing to do is to make your changes at Template:WikiProject Women's sport/sandbox, which is (at present) an exact copy of Template:WikiProject Women's sport. -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 23:29, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the help, ! I added it (for tennis only) to that sandbox, and it appears to work (as tested in my own sandbox). What is the next step towards adding it to the real template? Sportsfan77777 (talk) 02:22, 4 November 2019 (UTC)
 * I notice that you did it in a way that reuses the existing importance parameter, which means that the tennis importance rating is tied to the women's sport importance rating - they can't be set independently. Consider Talk:Conchita Martínez - this page has High-importance for WikiProject Tennis, but Low-importance for WikiProject Women's sport. I would imagine that the Women's tennis task force would want to rate that page either Mid- or High-importance, but your code won't allow that. -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 15:53, 4 November 2019 (UTC)
 * , thanks for pointing that out! I changed it so that the article only inherits the Women's sport importance if the tennis-importance parameter is not specified. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 02:25, 5 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Yes, but what is priority doing in there? -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 09:25, 5 November 2019 (UTC)
 * I removed it. I think that should be it? Sportsfan77777 (talk) 17:12, 5 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Yes, ✅. -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 20:47, 5 November 2019 (UTC)

Request - Redirect Link

 * ''Request: Change link from the inactive page WikiProject National Basketball Association/WNBA task force link to the active page WikiProject Basketball/Women's basketball/WNBA

For the women's basketball task force, the link currently leads here, which is an out of date task force link. A few editors and I have been using this task force page as a more up to date list of things needing doing related to WNBA articles. Would it be beneficial to re-direct the link in this banner shell to the latter page? Swimmer33 (talk) 20:03, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Support (responding from my talk; add edit request template) The history of WP:WikiProject National Basketball Association/WNBA task force (created 2009) shows that it has never been continually active, while WP:WikiProject Basketball/Women's basketball/WNBA has been in consistent use since its creation in 2013. Better link to the active page: though the former is a few years older, the active one is still more than a decade old. There is also likely to be support for merging the old page into the new one, but that's a separate discussion. Hameltion (talk &#124; contribs) 16:18, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
