Did the move operation just break this template across wikipedia?

Latest comment: 3 years ago3 comments3 people in discussion

I'm seeing usages across various project pages being interrupted by massive redirect banners suddenly. BlackholeWA (talk) 22:24, 12 February 2021 (UTC)

@BlackholeWA: This is because Anthony Appleyard (talk · contribs) renamed the template but didn't fix consequent double redirects. I've fixed them now. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 22:44, 12 February 2021 (UTC)

@Redrose64 and BlackholeWA: Thanks, sorry. I will remember what to do next time. Sorry. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 00:57, 13 February 2021 (UTC)

Template:Template link has been listed at Templates for discussion (nomination), but was protected so could not be tagged. Please add:

{{subst:tfm|help=off|1=Tlu}}

to the top of the page to complete the nomination. Thank you. JsfasdF252 (talk) 17:03, 18 March 2021 (UTC)

I find the TfM link extremely distracting. This template is used in more than 6 million pages while {{Tlu}} in 11K. (See?) Please change |type=tiny to |type=disabled. Nardog (talk) 19:59, 18 March 2021 (UTC)

This is so ridiculous it cracks me up:

@Primefac: This is extremely distracting. Mind removing the TfM template and acting in consequence, maybe suggesting an RfC instead? RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 22:57, 18 March 2021 (UTC)

Done RandomCanadian, that's not how this works. Disabling the notice, sure. Why the heck would we ignore every procedure we have and have a month-long discussion (i.e. RFC) when TFD works perfectly fine? That is a rhetorical question and does not need answering, but I would please ask that you strike your pointless opposition at the TFD itself. Primefac (talk) 23:03, 18 March 2021 (UTC)

I was just echoing the suggestion of somebody else at that discussion. Anyway now resolved. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 23:09, 18 March 2021 (UTC)

@Primefac: Thanks! Can you also remove the space between |text=yes}}}} and {{? It puts the line in <pre>...</pre> if used at the beginning of a line. Nardog (talk) 23:08, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
