Could a templatey administrator change this

<includeonly>{{subst:</includeonly><includeonly>empty template|<strong class="error">You forgot to subst this template. Replace {{nsdnld}} with {{subst:nsdnld}}</strong>}}{</includeonly><noinclude>{</noinclude>{<noinclude>[[Template:</noinclude>di-no source no license<noinclude>|di-no source no license]]</noinclude>|month={{<includeonly>subst:</includeonly>CURRENTMONTHNAME}}|day={{<includeonly>subst:</includeonly>CURRENTDAY}}|year={{<includeonly>subst:</includeonly>CURRENTYEAR}}}}<noinclude>{{pp-template|small=yes}}{{documentation}}</noinclude>

to this

<includeonly>{{{{{|safesubst:}}}substchecktop|Nsdnld|subst={{{subst|}}}}}</includeonly>{{<noinclude>tlp|</noinclude>di-no source no license|<noinclude>2=</noinclude>day={{{{{|safesubst:}}}CURRENTDAY}}|<noinclude>3=</noinclude>month={{{{{|safesubst:}}}CURRENTMONTHNAME}}|<noinclude>4=</noinclude>year={{{{{|safesubst:}}}CURRENTYEAR}}}}<includeonly>{{{{{|safesubst:}}}substcheckbottom|subst={{{subst|}}}}}</includeonly><noinclude>{{Documentation}}</noinclude>

  Not done at present. Has this been tested in a sandbox? Also, what does the change do? If it merely simplifies the code, my inclination is "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." —  Tivedshambo  (t/c) 21:50, 21 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

A copy of this code can now be found in the sandbox and its effects can be seen at testcases. The template updates include the following changes:

  1. Updating the substitution check code to a more efficient version.
  2. Updating the date parameters to use existing date templates rather than variables, simplifying the code.
  3. Optimising the demo display on the Template:Nsdnld page to use Template:Tlp, simplifying the code.
  4. Removing the redundant page protection template, which is already included as part of the documentation.
  5. Moving categories to the documentation subpage.

Code Update 2 edit

{{editprotected}} Could a templatey administrator copy over the code at Template:Nsdnld/sandbox to Template:Nsdnld? This will update the date parameters to use existing date templates rather than variables. Thanks. Set Sail For The Seven Seas 203° 31' 30" NET 13:34, 23 September 2010 (UTC)Reply
