== Two unrelated questions ==
#How long should it take for categories to be populated by a template? I've heard about this "one-month decaching time" but I admit I have no clue about this. Here's an example though. [[Template:Carnivorous Plants]] was converted on 20th December, but there are still 339 articles in [[:Category:Stub-class carnivorous plant articles]], compared with 190 in [[:Category:Stub-Class carnivorous plant articles]]. Why don't they move faster??
#Would a "collaboration" hook be useful, do you think? I come across lots of banners which have parameters for notes such as "This article was the XXX collaboration of the fortnight. For details on the improvements made to the article, see the history of past collaborations". It would probably be coded quite similarly to the peerreview hook.

:1, I'm pretty sure, depends on the job que. You can get such things to update quicker by null editing the pages that need updated. While useful for the task, bots should ''never'' be used for such a task[[User:ShepBot|.]] <tt>:D</tt> I don't have an opinion on the second item though. <font color="green" face="Comic Sans MS">[[User:Stepshep|§hep]]</font> • <font color="green" face="Comic Sans MS"><sup>[[User talk:Stepshep|Talk]]</sup></font> 01:35, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
:2, I created the [[Template:WPBannerMeta/hooks/collaboration|collaboration hook]], mainly by ripping the (excellent) code from the peer review hook :) [[User talk:Msgj|Martin]] 15:16, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
== Collapsed taskforces ==
Something is not working and I don't understand why. I thought that to put taskforces in the collapsed section I could just put the taskforce hook with HOOK_COLLAPSED. But it's not working on [[Template:WP Banksia]] ([http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:WP_Banksia&oldid=270833348 this version]). Also I was a bit surprised that when HOOK_COLLAPSED contains just text, it doesn't actually appear in the collapsed section, e.g.
[[User:Msgj/Sandbox4]]
Could this be to do with the [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:WPBannerMeta/core&diff=262398035&oldid=261867280 2->3] edit? [[User talk:Msgj|Martin]] 07:05, 15 February 2009 (UTC)
:The {{para|HOOK_COLLAPSED}} hook injects to the bottom of the collapsible table, outside any defined cell or even a defined row (otherwise putting some things in it would result in nested tables or other wierdness). I'm not sure why Tidy moves content that's defined inside a table but outside any cell to a position ''outside'' the table, but that's not its fault. I've made the 2→3 col switch on /taskforce, hopefully that will improve handling. <font color="forestgreen">[[User:Happy-melon|'''Happy''']]</font>‑<font color="darkorange">[[User talk:Happy-melon|'''melon''']]</font> 08:54, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
