Quick heads up: I removed $1 (which is the actual regex itself), since leaving it in is just asking for it to be circumvented :P --slakr\ talk / 23:56, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
- Someone should check the order of $2 and $3 variables, MediaWiki has changed and makes it fuzzy. Vinhtantran (talk) 02:49, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

Please change this to
The page "$2" cannot be renamed to "$3" because the title "$3" matches an entry $1 on the local or global blacklists. If you believe that this move is valid, please consider requesting the move first. |
Reasons:
- It mentions both local and global blacklists.
- There is no way to know which blacklist entry was tripped. This is problematic when there are errors on the local or global blacklists. The extendedconfirmed-show makes sure that well-established users can always see the entry that was tripped. Aasim 00:40, 8 September 2020 (UTC)

- I've done this but I'm not sure if it is wise to change the wording from "moved" to "renamed" because the interface uses the term "move". Shall I change this back? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 12:02, 11 September 2020 (UTC)
- They are essentially the same thing. And please implement https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki_talk:Titleblacklist-forbidden-move/sandbox&diff=prev&oldid=977886910 as it stops pipes that are in the $1 parameter from breaking the message. Aasim 15:58, 11 September 2020 (UTC)
- I don't like "renamed" here either, we should be consistent. The only thing we 'rename' are usernames. — xaosflux Talk 13:51, 17 September 2020 (UTC)
- +1 for move ~ Amory (u • t • c) 14:32, 20 September 2020 (UTC)
- I have changed it back to "moved", and started a thread at WP:VPT to get advice on the fmbox issue. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 08:06, 22 September 2020 (UTC)

I have disabled the request for now as the OP has so far declined to test his changes on the testwiki. Please see Wikipedia:Village pump (technical)#Escaping a pipe character in system messages for more. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 19:50, 5 October 2020 (UTC)
Escaping piped links edit request

Please implement the changes I did in the sandbox for both pages. There was concern that pipe characters would break the message if a template was used, and that still is the case. Unfortunately there is no real fix for this unless if the MediaWiki parser passed {{!}} instead of the pipe character into the message. It might be possible with a new module but this code is a quick and easy fix until such a module can be created.

Not done for now: I'd really rather prefer you/someone work on dealing with this correctly than adding two more additional workarounds of this nature. It will save me time and energy down the road. Izno (talk) 07:54, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
