Template-protected edit request on 18 November 2020 edit

The AfC submission catcheck doesn't work after a page move, and the changes @Primefac: made didn't fix anything. –Piranha249 18:58, 18 November 2020 (UTC) –Piranha249 18:58, 18 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

Show date of tagging next to message edit

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 Wikipedia:So you made a userspace draft. ({{{date}}})

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

Error in wrong namespaces edit

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)Reply
Editors being confused. — The Earwig (talk) 00:42, 16 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
Ruslik0, 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)Reply
But you removed it? Ruslik_Zero 20:40, 15 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
And by the way my comment should be in the section above. :) Ruslik_Zero 20:43, 15 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
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)Reply

Edit request 26 July 2023 edit

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.

Diff:

{{find sources}}
+
{{find sources|{{{page|}}}}}

  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)Reply
@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)Reply
  Done 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)Reply
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)Reply
  Done For real. * Pppery * it has begun... 13:43, 30 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
Vipz, 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 Pppery for covering for me. – Jonesey95 (talk) 12:11, 7 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
