Template talk:Logo requested

Template-protected edit request on 20 September 2019

Please replace:

[[Category:Wikipedia requested logos|{{PAGENAME}}]]

with:

[[Category:Wikipedia requested logos {{#ifeq:{{lc:{{{1|}}}}}|school|of schools and universities|}}|{{PAGENAME}}]]

So that articles for schools and universities can be sub-categorized. Thanks! —swpb^{T • go beyond • bad idea} 14:46, 20 September 2019 (UTC)

 Not done: There are many ways to put the talk page into the appropriate subcat. For example, Talk:Adventist Girls High School uses {{image requested|schools|in=Ghana|date=May 2016}}, which categorizes it into Category:Wikipedia requested images of schools. If you wanted that school placed into Category:Wikipedia requested logos of schools and universities then either change schools to schools and universities or add a second parameter with that value. In other words, the template doesn't need to be updated to include what you want. Primefac (talk) 17:23, 22 September 2019 (UTC)

To editor Primefac:. I'm not trying to put articles in Category:Wikipedia requested images of schools and universities. I know the template can do that. I'm trying to put them in Category:Wikipedia requested logos of schools and universities. The template isn't set up for that. —swpb^{T • go beyond • bad idea} 13:12, 23 September 2019 (UTC)

I can see your point, but other than that one line of code the template puts everything into "requested images" cats or subcats. I think a discussion about how this template sorts the page in question is in order - is there a reason why it goes into a generic "requested logo" supercat but then subcats into "requested images"? I guess it just seems like a "requested logo" is a type of "requested image". Happy to go with whatever consensus emerges, but with only 3 page watchers you might want to try having the discussion somewhere else. Primefac (talk) 13:47, 23 September 2019 (UTC)

To editor Primefac: Where? Wouldn't the talk page of the template to be changed be the right place, and the fact it has only three watchers indicate that not many people are interested? The "image of" sub-catting comes from the template that was used to make this one. The change doesn't break it. Obviously, an image of a school is not the same as an image of a logo of a school, and doesn't belong in the same directory. —swpb^{T • go beyond • bad idea} 19:24, 23 September 2019 (UTC)

Fair enough. I didn't realize that (as near as I can tell) you are pretty much the only one involved with this (either here or at the category). I've turned the request back on since I'm walking out the door, but I'll take a look at it when I get time; I feel like there's a more clever solution that would allow for expansion to other potential subcats.

To editor Primefac: Any movement on this? —swpb^{T • go beyond • bad idea} 13:39, 1 October 2019 (UTC)

 Done: implementing for now, seems like it would be easy enough to change if a different solution is found. WMSR (talk) 17:07, 1 October 2019 (UTC)

September 2020

Please replace:

[[Category:Wikipedia requested logos {{#ifeq:{{lc:{{{1|}}}}}|school|of schools and universities|}}|{{PAGENAME}}]]

with:

[[Category:Wikipedia requested logos {{#ifeq:{{lc:{{{1|}}}}}|school|of schools and universities|{{#ifeq:{{lc:{{{1|}}}}}|schools|of schools and universities|}}}}|{{PAGENAME}}]]

Hundreds of calls to this template use the argument "schools" rather than "school" (likely from familiarity with {{image requested}}); this causes the template to fail to place these articles in Category:Wikipedia requested logos of schools and universities as intended. This edit will allow the template to recognize both "school" and "schools" for the purpose of putting articles in Category:Wikipedia requested logos of schools and universities. Thank you! —swpb^{T • go beyond • bad idea} 16:33, 1 September 2020 (UTC)

 Done using slightly simpler markup than requested here. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 17:28, 1 September 2020 (UTC)

Thanks! Did not know the conditional worked that way. —swpb^{T • go beyond • bad idea} 18:53, 1 September 2020 (UTC)

This change is causing the category redirect Category:Wikipedia requested images of school to fill up. Please can this be fixed - I don't know the code to do it myself beyond simply reverting. Timrollpickering (talk) 09:17, 2 September 2020 (UTC)

Fixed. – Jonesey95 (talk) 13:58, 2 September 2020 (UTC)

Where do you actually ask for the logo?

Unless I am missing something obvious, this places the page in question into the category. But I know there is also a page where one actually requests new images, Wikipedia:Graphics Lab/Illustration workshop. I think this should be mentioned at the top of this page?
