Unsigned templates
Please add the following: Signature templates should never be transcluded, and they cause problems with archive bots. Many of these have way more than 100 transclusions, so they need to be listed to get this bot to work. Oiyarbepsy (talk) 00:53, 4 February 2015 (UTC)

 * Red information icon with gradient background.svg Not done: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the template. First, consensus should be gained before requesting an edit be made on your behalf.  Secondly I object on the surface to this request for two reasons. Not only is this task what I believe falls under WP:COSMETICBOT, but more importantly I feel that substituting unsigned templates assumes bad faith on behalf of the OP and should be avoided or at very least delayed 30 days before carrying out the substitution if at all. —   03:14, 4 February 2015 (UTC)

Please add Unicode to this list as per this discussion, where the bot operator recommended it, and this TfD.

While I'm here, also add About3, as per this TfD. It's a wrapper that can be substituted to complete the merge.

Please add RMnac, RMpmc, Nac to the list.  Anarchyte  ( work  &#124;  talk )   06:41, 5 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Endorsed for rmnac and nac . This looks like a good idea — Andy W.  ( talk  · ctb) 06:44, 5 June 2016 (UTC) A bit of context if it helps: RMnac has 2400+ transclusions, RMpmc has 0, Nac has 3060+. These templates are simple enough, and one could cite the same reason for substitution as that determined for EP and ESp. This was a bold move by the requester above, and I thought it made sense (minus RMpmc at this point). — Andy W.  ( talk  · ctb) 01:09, 6 June 2016 (UTC)

Template:EP and Template:ESp are on the list. Please add Template:EEp and Template:ETp to the list as well. (An edit request above included ETp, but somehow wasn't added)

— Andy W.  ( talk  · ctb) 06:49, 5 June 2016 (UTC)
 * I note that Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:EEp shows no transclusions at all, and WhatLinksHere/Template:ETp only shows two pages that are using "demo" links. So adding them here would have no effect unless someone were to suddenly put the template on over 100 pages within about an hour. Is there any particular reason to add them?

Category:Wikipedia templates to be automatically substituted
I must have missed the memo... but is there some other bot handling the pages listed Category:Wikipedia templates to be automatically substituted, but NOT listed on this page? — Andy W.  ( talk  · ctb) 06:51, 5 June 2016 (UTC)
 * I don't know of one, and that includes that I don't remember seeing another bot approved to do it at WP:BRFA. Why do you ask? Anomie⚔ 11:29, 5 June 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure if the bots listed at Substitution work on the pages listed in the category. There are about 30 pages listed here, and 640+ in the category, so I currently believe the category is mostly inaccurate. I was thinking that removing yes on their doc pages might be a housekeeping task if we know for sure that most of the templates in the category have no bots working on them. — Andy W.  ( talk  · ctb) 15:40, 5 June 2016 (UTC)
 * You seem to misunderstand how the category works. It's not advisory, AnomieBOT substitutes every template listed in that category specifically because it is in that category, subject to certain safeguards. This page only serves to override the safeguards when a human determines that that is acceptable. Anomie⚔ 20:37, 5 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Ahh... well thanks for the clarification. My bad. That does clear up 1 or 2 other minor questions I had but didn't mention earlier too. Added: Perhaps it's clear upon second reading of this page, but I'm tempted to put in a request to mention the category so others may not be confused. — Andy W.  ( talk  · ctb) 23:04, 5 June 2016 (UTC) 23:08, 5 June 2016 (UTC)

Please add Scite as per Templates_for_discussion/Log/2016_May_25. The relevant edits have been made to Ussc and I converted Scite to a substitutable wrapper. Testcases were checked before converting to a wrapper, and the output is identical.

Edit request pt 2

 * 1) Substitutions for Scite are done, so the "Scite" entry can be removed. The 1 transclusion is on a testcase page.
 * 2) Would Anomie be able to close this discussion? I wouldn't mind any result at this point (with any final decision by Anomie, as agreed upon by folks at VPT). Thanks — Andy W.  ( talk  · ctb) 17:05, 7 June 2016 (UTC)

New Template Addition
I'd like Template:single-purpose account to be added to this page. According to the template's documentation, it should be substed every time it is used, and yet it has thousands of usages that were not so done (Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Single-purpose_account).--216.12.10.118 (talk) 18:51, 8 April 2017 (UTC)

Please add Template:NOTOC to the list, see the "substitution only" template itself which still is in the Category:Wikipedia transclusionless templates despite being protected now because of those unwanted many transclusions. This has to be changed. See also Templates_for_deletion/Log/2007_January_27, where the template had been deleted at all and recreated only a few years ago without discussion. It should never have any transclusions just for the magic word, see also Template talk:NOTOC. 2A02:908:D83:E460:216:CBFF:FEAD:FF9 (talk) 23:52, 9 August 2019 (UTC)

Template:RFPP
Hi, yes, it is. It became one when a proper archive was implemented at WP:Requests for page protection/Archive yesterday, a long time after the discussion at WT:RFPP and Template talk:RFPP that led to it. The template is already substituted by Cyberbot I as well. For convenience of administrators who manually type the template syntax, I have intentionally not updated the documentation to request users to manually substitute the template. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 13:10, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Fair enough, didn't see anything that indicated it was. <100 transclusions now anyway, so it's not the end of the world. Primefac (talk) 17:32, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Yeah. I thought these are caused by the transclusion of WP:RFPP on various dashboards, but that's not the case. Helpful substitutions such as Special:Diff/1033970363 have happened and the entry is not longer needed. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 15:19, 18 July 2021 (UTC)

Please add. This barnstar was awarded via mass-message list without including a subst:, as noted at the sender's talk page. >100 (139) transclusions, so AnomieBOT will only subst: them if forced. The template's documentation has long indicated subst only, as with other user talk page messages. SilverLocust 💬 19:36, 11 January 2024 (UTC)
