Line 301: Small inconsistency: in the [[Template:WikiProject Oceania#Deprecated parameters\|#Deprecated parameters]] section, both listas & class bullets' 2nd sentence should start with either "Please see ..." or "See ..." and not both. This is the only instance of "Please see ..." I see, so preference goes to "See ...".   <b>~</b> <span style="font-family:Monotype Corsiva; font-size:16px;">[[User:Tom.Reding\|Tom.Reding]] ([[User talk:Tom.Reding\|talk]] ⋅[[WP:DGAF\|dgaf]])</span>  12:00, 8 February 2025 (UTC) == Eliminating the remaining uses of [[Template:WPBannerMeta/hooks]] and its subpages == ===Low hanging fruit=== * {{tfd links\|WPBannerMeta/hooks}} * {{tfd links\|WPBannerMeta/hooks/collapsed}} * {{tfd links\|WPBannerMeta/hooks/notecounter}} * {{tfd links\|WPBannerMeta/hooks/notes}} * {{tfd links\|WPBannerMeta/hooks/taskforces}} * {{tfd links\|WPBannerMeta/hooks/taskforces/core}} * {{tfd links\|WPBannerMeta/hooks/tfnested}} From what I can tell, I think we are all set to delete (under [[WP:T5]]) the templates listed above, but I am asking here before actually pushing the button. <b>[[User:HouseBlaster\|House]][[Special:Contributions/HouseBlaster\|<span style="color:#7D066B;">Blaster</span>]]</b> ([[User talk:HouseBlaster\|talk]] • he/they) 02:48, 11 February 2025 (UTC) :[[Template:WPBannerMeta/hooks/notecounter]] is mentioned at [[Module:WikiProject banner/templatepage#L-24]].

I can see of several possible solutions, in order of increasing complexity: #Leave it be. #Pros: Very easy #Cons: Feels like we are inviting further use of a deprecated template #Move it to [[Template:WikiProject U.S. Roads/cats/core]] (or some other subpage) #Pros: Easy, prevents use of the template in other locations #Cons: Still leaves around some technical debt #Merge its functionality with [[Template:WikiProject U.S. Roads/cats]] #Pros: Marginally decreases technical debt; impossible to continue to use any of the hooks #Cons: More challenging; [[Template:WikiProject U.S. Roads/cats]] still exists I lean towards option 2.

[[User:HouseBlaster\|House]][[Special:Contributions/HouseBlaster\|'''Blaster''']] ([[User talk:HouseBlaster\|talk]] • he/they) 23:32, 27 February 2025 (UTC) == NA class category warnings == While processing a move request for [[Template:WikiProject Song Contests]], and then updating the categories (for the first time), I was caught unaware of the changes to the NA-related categories, [[Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2024_December_7#Category:Category-Class_articles]]. This led to an eventual deletion of [[:Category:NA-importance Song Contests articles]] and [[:Category:NA-Class Song Contests articles]] as these became redirects to the now non-existent Eurovision categories. Then in the [[Template:WikiProject Song Contests]] page, warnings came up, requesting to create the 'articles' categories, leading to me recreating the redirects to suppress the warnings (cc: @[[User:Liz\|Liz]]). Can these warnings be suppressed outright in the module codes since the articles are being automatically set to the 'pages' categories already? [[User:Robertsky\|– robertsky]] ([[User talk:Robertsky\|talk]]) 23:09, 13 February 2025 (UTC) :Yes I will update those, thanks for the reminder — Martin <small>([[User:MSGJ\|MSGJ]] · [[User talk:MSGJ\|talk]])</small> 10:41, 14 February 2025 (UTC) :{{done}}, finally got round to this — Martin <small>([[User:MSGJ\|MSGJ]] · [[User talk:MSGJ\|talk]])</small> 16:09, 22 March 2025 (UTC) == Pre-load templates == We are still using the following templates: * [[Template:WPBannerMeta/templatepage/preloadqual]] * [[Template:WPBannerMeta/templatepage/preloadimp]] * [[Template:WPBannerMeta/templatepage/preloadmeta]] * [[Template:WPBannerMeta/templatepage/editintro]] and these are also using: * [[Template:WPBannerMeta/templatepage/deduceclass]] * [[Template:WPBannerMeta/templatepage/deduceimportance]] * [[Template:WPBannerMeta/templatepage/impheader]] * [[Template:WPBannerMeta/templatepage/qualheader]] I would firstly like to move these to a more suitable ___location (as [[Template:WPBannerMeta]] is no longer in use) and also to update and simplify this whole family of templates, because things can be done a lot more easily these days — Martin <small>([[User:MSGJ\|MSGJ]] · [[User talk:MSGJ\|talk]])</small> 16:16, 22 March 2025 (UTC) :{{done}}. I have moved the three preload templates to [[Template:WikiProject banner preload template]] and deleted all the rest which are no longer needed — Martin <small>([[User:MSGJ\|MSGJ]] · [[User talk:MSGJ\|talk]])</small> 18:14, 26 March 2025 (UTC) == To do adjustments == I have [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Module%3AWikiProject_banner%2Fauxiliary%2Fsandbox&diff=1274014600&oldid=1268570995 made a few adjustments] to the to do related code in /auxiliary/sandbox. # Converted the presentational table to a more appropriate div. # Use a dark mode token for the background. # Removed support for setting custom styles. [[Template:WikiProject Freemasonry]] is the only project which uses them ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=insource:/TODO_STYLE/%20-intitle:/(\/sandbox\|\/doc)/&title=Special:Search&profile=advanced&fulltext=1&ns10=1&ns828=1 TODO_STYLE] [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=insource:/TODO_TITLE_STYLE/%20-intitle:/(\/sandbox\|\/doc)/&title=Special:Search&profile=advanced&fulltext=1&ns10=1&ns828=1 TODO_TITLE_STYLE]), and the way in which they are used is not friendly for dark mode, though the particular color flavor happens to be readable. [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template%3AWikiProject_NASCAR&diff=1274014111&oldid=1175978317 I removed another] which was using the default in light mode. It looks like [[Module:WikiProject banner/templatepage]] needs removal of the parameters of interest. [[User:Izno\|Izno]] ([[User talk:Izno\|talk]]) 02:10, 5 February 2025 (UTC) :Great, thanks for the info. I can deal with /templatepage — Martin <small>([[User:MSGJ\|MSGJ]] · [[User talk:MSGJ\|talk]])</small> 18:15, 5 February 2025 (UTC) :@[[User:Izno\|Izno]] there is a slight spacing inconsistency with the new divs, which you can observe on [[Template:WikiProject Japan/sandbox]]. Are you able to line up the text on the left and the [show] links on the right? — Martin <small>([[User:MSGJ\|MSGJ]] · [[User talk:MSGJ\|talk]])</small> 16:43, 22 March 2025 (UTC) ::Playing around with the left/right padding on the container seems to do it. Adding 2px on the left and another 2px on the right I think got it. Basically what's happening is that tables have a natural border-spacing (not coincidentally it's 2px) which is padding like but applied slightly differently. [[User:Izno\|Izno]] ([[User talk:Izno\|talk]]) 16:53, 22 March 2025 (UTC) :::Padding is always inside the border. The spacing outside the border is the margin. See [https://www.w3.org/TR/css-box-3/#box-model The CSS Box Model]. --[[User:Redrose64\|<span style="color:#a80000; background:#ffeeee; text-decoration:inherit">Red</span>rose64]] 🌹 ([[User talk:Redrose64\|talk]]) 23:27, 22 March 2025 (UTC) ::::Tables are special in that they have the border-spacing property. The point I was making is that in fact there is more to the box model than just padding and margin. [[User:Izno\|Izno]] ([[User talk:Izno\|talk]]) 00:58, 23 March 2025 (UTC) :::::I don't see any changes to the sandbox and the example is still looking the same? If you can fix the spacing in the sandbox, I suggest we change all of the collapsible boxes in the module to use div boxes, to keep things consistent — Martin <small>([[User:MSGJ\|MSGJ]] · [[User talk:MSGJ\|talk]])</small> 08:46, 24 March 2025 (UTC) :::::@[[User:Izno\|Izno]] are you still interested in this? — Martin <small>([[User:MSGJ\|MSGJ]] · [[User talk:MSGJ\|talk]])</small> 20:48, 28 March 2025 (UTC) ::::::I didn't make any adjustments, which is why you do not see any changes. ::::::I didn't change the other collapsible boxes because they're more or less fairly marked up as tables, from memory (and memory may be wrong of course). [[User:Izno\|Izno]] ([[User talk:Izno\|talk]]) 21:30, 28 March 2025 (UTC) :::::::In that case I can't really see a benefit to converting the table to a div, as it will introduce an inconsistency. I have removed the style parameters from /templatepage, so these will now be treated as unknown parameters — Martin <small>([[User:MSGJ\|MSGJ]] · [[User talk:MSGJ\|talk]])</small> 18:53, 30 March 2025 (UTC) == Tidy up intersecting categories == I am looking at tidying up the intersecting quality/importance categories and there seem to be 3 types: * [[:Category:Draft-Class Ireland articles of Low-importance]] - this is a valid category but should be renamed to [[:Category:Draft-Class Ireland pages of Low-importance]] in line with the move of [[:Category:Draft-Class pages]]. This is under discussion [[Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2025 March 28#Category:Redirect-Class 20th Century Studios articles of Low-importance\|here]] - please comment if you can. * [[:Category:FM-Class Palaeontology articles of NA-importance]] seems entirely redundant because all FM-class pages are rated as NA-class, so it will be an exact copy of [[:Category:FM-Class Palaeontology pages]]. I have nominated for deletion [[Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2025 March 28#Category:Category-Class 20th Century Studios articles of NA-importance\|here]] - please comment if you can. * [[:Category:NA-Class glass articles of Unknown-importance]] is invalid because it will never be used (NA-class will always default to NA-importance not Unknown-importance), so I will tag it for speedy deletion under {{tl\|db-c1}}. — Martin <small>([[User:MSGJ\|MSGJ]] · [[User talk:MSGJ\|talk]])</small> 07:52, 2 April 2025 (UTC)
