== Broken ref: language support ==
Line 114:
:And it breaks when used without {{tag|ref|o}} tags:
 
{ {markup
|<nowiki>{{singlechart|UKrandb|1|artist=Rihanna|song=Russian Roulette|date=December 12, 2009|accessdate=March 27, 2013}}</nowiki>
|{{singlechart|UKrandb|1|artist=Rihanna|song=Russian Roulette|date=December 12, 2009|accessdate=March 27, 2013}}
Line 120:
{{reflist-talk|close=1}}
:{{tl|Singlechart}} is not intended for this purpose. It creates a table row, so it needs to be included in a table. It also creates a reference, so you are essentially nesting {{tag|ref|o}} tags, which does not work. Please read the {{tl|Singlechart}} documentation or use another method to include these references. --<span style="color:Turquoise">''''' &nbsp;[[User:Gadget850|Gadget850]]'''''<sup>[[User talk:Gadget850|&nbsp;''talk'']]</sup></span> 15:07, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
*A note that I've grabbed the standard links and used them as standard references. If you work out how to do it in the more conventional single charts manner, then feel free to redo it. :) [[User:Lukeno94|<fontspan colorstyle="color:Navy">Luke</fontspan><fontspan colorstyle="color:FireBrick">no</fontspan><fontspan colorstyle="color:Green">94</fontspan>]] [[User talk:Lukeno94#top|<i>(tell Luke off here)</i>]] 11:54, 17 May 2013 (UTC)

== Monitoring backlog categories ==
A good idea of [[User:TheJJJunk]]: He monitors certain backlog categories using <code><nowiki>{{User:TheJJJunk/Backlog}}</nowiki></code>, a template he made: <center>
{| class="wikitable" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border: none;"
|+Backlog status ({{purge}})
!Category
Line 154:
|{{Clickable button|[[:Category:Pages with URL errors|Pages with URL errors]]}}
|{{#ifeq:{{PAGESINCAT:Pages with URL errors}}|0|{{done}}|{{notdone}}}}
|}</center> which determines if the category is empty or not. He also uses [[User:TheJJJunk/ARA|ARA]], a script that he developed, to help fix citation errors. He hasn't used WikiBlame before. <s>— <small>[[User:TheJJJunk|<b><fontspan facestyle="font-family:Courier New"; font-size="3px:medium"><fontspan colorstyle="color:blue">J</fontspan><fontspan colorstyle="color:black">J</fontspan><fontspan colorstyle="color:red">J</fontspan></fontspan></b>]] <sup>([[User talk:TheJJJunk|<fontspan colorstyle="color:blue">say hello</fontspan>]])</sup> 16:01, 10 October 2013 (UTC)</small></s> Copied from my talk page --[[User:Frze|<ttsamp>Frze</ttsamp>]] <sup><small> [[User talk:Frze|<ttsamp>> talk </ttsamp>]] </small></sup> 17:38, 11 October 2013 (UTC)

I wanted to cite a blog post titled "Commandant's Column: Envisioning USAWC 2020" [http://www.carlisle.army.mil/banner/article.cfm?id=2465] ([http://www.webcitation.org/query?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.carlisle.army.mil%2Fbanner%2Farticle.cfm%3Fid%3D2465&date=2013-11-27 archive]) for which "2020" seemed like a reasonable name...denied! &mdash;[[User_talk:Rybec|<fontspan colorstyle="color:black"><span style="background:#ccccff">rybec</span></fontspan>]] 21:58, 27 November 2013 (UTC)
:In the construct {{tag|ref|params=name="''identifier''"|content=''text of ref''}}, ''identifier'' cannot be a pure integer. You could use {{tag|ref|o|params=name="USAWC2020"}} but please note that [[WP:SPS|blogs are not considered reliable sources]]. --[[User:Redrose64|<span style="color:#a80000; background:#ffeeee; text-decoration:inherit">Red</span>rose64]] ([[User talk:Redrose64|talk]]) 23:26, 27 November 2013 (UTC)
