accessdate errors edit
@EdwardUK: I just fixed 25 articles that were in Category:CS1 errors: redundant parameter, such as Knockfarrel:
- Before:
{{canmore |num=12782 |desc=Knock Farril |accessdate=October 11, 2020}}generates Historic Environment Scotland. "Knock Farril (12782)". Canmore. Retrieved October 11, 2020. - After:
{{canmore |num=12782 |desc=Knock Farril |access-date=October 11, 2020}}generates Historic Environment Scotland. "Knock Farril (12782)". Canmore. Retrieved October 11, 2020.
Since {{canmore}} was added to Knockfarrel last year, I'm wondering if this new error is somehow related to your recent edit to this template. GoingBatty (talk) 19:58, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- yes - just spotted this myself and am working on fixing it EdwardUK (talk) 19:59, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- I think this was due to "accessdate" being missing from the exclude section at the top of the code, something I missed when testing - hopefully it is corrected now. EdwardUK (talk) 20:06, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- The problem was the result of changing this template into a wrapper template, which meant it tried to use the one from Cite web in addition to the parameter that was already being used for it here - I have removed the accessdate parameter from the code for it is no longer needed here.
