Shortcut

[edit]

Could a shortcut parameter be please added for use for large site-wide RfCs that have a dedicated shortcut? I have provided the necessary code in the sandbox. 207.161.86.162 (talk) 04:10, 9 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Whilst you have indeed sandboxed your proposal, you have not demonstrated it at the testcases page. However, it's a fair suggestion on the face of it, but  Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{edit template-protected}} template. Sorry. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 14:44, 9 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
(Speaking without my admin hat) I see two problems with this. First, the shortcut anchor will exist only for as long as the RfC remains open; when the {{rfc}} tag is removed the anchor will vanish as well. We have a number of closed RfCs which have shortcuts that are effectively permanent (see for example WP:ENDPORTALS, WP:MOSNUM/RFC, WP:UP/RFC2016) and these use a normal shortcut box without problem. Second, Legobot (talk · contribs) (which maintains the lists of open RfCs) is known to choke if it encounters parameters in the {{rfc}} tag that it is not expecting, so please ensure that Legoktm (talk · contribs) is willing to amend the bot before implementing any additional parameters. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 14:57, 9 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Redrose's first point seems to be a major pitfall of this proposal. Shortcuts are probably better done separately using the shortcut template. ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 17:54, 9 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 13 February 2022

[edit]
The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: to be moved to Template:Request for comment. To be moved once necessary code change is done. (closed by non-admin page mover) Vpab15 (talk) 21:41, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]


Template:RfcTemplate:RfC – According to Wikipedia:Requests for comment, this is the correct capitalization. A redirect should be left, and the old title can be used as usual by bots, scripts, humans, etc. 🐶 EpicPupper (he/him | talk) 01:33, 13 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Note to closer

Since this request hasn't been closed yet, I wish to ask the closer that if they close this discussion as consensus to move. They please don't move this right away but wait until the bot's code is changed accordingly. Those two actions will probably need to be coordinated for a flawless transition. ---CX Zoom(he/him) (let's talk|contribs) 15:36, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The discussion above is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

[edit]

Please sync with Template:rfc/sandbox per MOS:BLANKALT. I also removed redundant code preventing Template:Rfc itself from being categorized because the code in question is already in <includeonly>...</includeonly> tags. Thanks! HouseBlastertalk 22:36, 30 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Updated icons in sandbox

[edit]

I updated the sandbox to use the OOUI/Codex icons, as well as tweaked the wording. If this looks good then maybe I will open an edit request to get the icons changed. Awesome Aasim 17:26, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
