:::@[[User:Redrose64|Redrose64]] I added a new fix to the sandbox.

== The [[Template:Coord]] template intersects articles' infoboxes/main text on [[Wikipedia:Vector_2022|Vector 2022]] (default skin) ==
 
{{Admin help|answered=yes}}
It appears as though the position of the template, when used under the <code>display=title</code> parameter, is '''absolute''' and cares little about neighboring [[Template:Infobox|infoboxes]], images, or suspected article text. This issue has far reaching implications, as seen in articles such as [[Andaman_Islands]], [[Operation Rheinübung]], [[Aegadian Islands]], [[Arabian Sea]], or even the [[United States]] articles, '''particularly''' when page width is at its slim default. The issue is mitigated when other minimal templates such as [[Template:Main]] are used, but this may be more rare than common. I request administrator help as the Module in question is [[WP:FULL|Fully Protected]], in addition to my inability to suggest a concrete improvement/<code>Template:Edit fully-protected</code> to solve this objective issue. I already have slight troubles editing Templates, but a Module is out of my expertise. I suspect it has to do with adding margin/changing the CSS display type somewhere but I'll leave the details to whomever picks this up.

::Oh, my bad. Sorry for the inapproproiate use of that template. [[User:ZaptorZap|<span style="color:orangered;">Zaptor</span><span style="color:red;">''Zap''</span>]] ([[User_talk:ZaptorZap|<code style="color:purple">talk</code>]]) 10:16, 28 April 2023 (UTC)
 
I've noticed this a lot in the last two days. Coincidence, or has something changed lately? Any solution that avoids the overlapping would be an improvement. {{ping|izno|TheDJ}} the list of [[Module_talk:Coordinates#Outstanding_problems_for_indicators|steps to fix indicators]] seems reasonable, are these waiting on new people to jump in or is there pushback elsewhere? <span style="color:#666">&ndash;&nbsp;[[User:Sj|SJ]][[User Talk:Sj|<span style="color:#f90;">&nbsp;+</span>]]</span> 14:03, 29 April 2023 (UTC)
 
:No coincidence. The sitesub header (with From wikipedia the free encyclopedia) has accidentally disappeared in last weeks' release, further aggravating this problem. —[[User:TheDJ|Th<span style="color: green">e</span>DJ]] ([[User talk:TheDJ|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/TheDJ|contribs]]) 14:27, 29 April 2023 (UTC)
:: I see, didn't notice that at first. Thanks to [[user:Izno|Izno]] for the [[phab:T335625|hackaround]]. We can pray for better release testing + reversion for regressions... but this seems another mark in favor of the indicator switch. <span style="color:#666">&ndash;&nbsp;[[User:Sj|SJ]][[User Talk:Sj|<span style="color:#f90;">&nbsp;+</span>]]</span> 14:40, 29 April 2023 (UTC), 02:47, 30 April 2023 (UTC)
