Request[edit]

{{Editprotected}} Please add the above code. It adds a "category history earliest page" link, helping to find the category creator. Teofilo (talk) 10:30, 11 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Done, although I didn't use your code exactly, but took the liberty of using &limit=1 to link directly to the first edit. Anyway, thanks for the idea! —Ilmari Karonen (talk) 00:16, 12 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The template produces some nonsenses like the example below. --ŠJů (talk) 00:56, 18 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Add ?UNIQ1366b6405d7ee732-nowiki-00000004-QINU? on the category page
  • Notify the creator of the category with ?UNIQ1366b6405d7ee732-nowiki-00000005-QINU?preload?UNIQ1366b6405d7ee732-nowiki-00000006-QINU?
  • On the log, add:
    ?UNIQ1366b6405d7ee732-nowiki-00000007-QINU?Commons talk:Categories for discussion/preload?UNIQ1366b6405d7ee732-nowiki-00000008-QINU?

It seems that < nowiki > is no longer interpreted correctly by the Mediawiki software. This is a problem too difficult for me to solve. I am asking for help at the village pump. Teofilo (talk) 02:35, 18 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

probably a duplicate bug of Bug 27467 - preload can leave UNIQ
I noticed it does not work with the gallery tag. See de:Wikipedia:Fotowerkstatt/preload for a workaround. I wrapped the gallery tags in templates.. works but is not nice ;) Cheers --Saibo (Δ) 03:33, 18 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I created User:Saibo/Sandbox/nowiki and User:Saibo/Sandbox/preload. Works - doesn't it? (see the preview) So just the content of the /preload page here must be done similar to my preload page and the /nowiki page must be created here. Cheers --Saibo (Δ) 03:52, 18 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If you use the tool by DieBuche, this is no longer needed. --  Docu  at 05:01, 18 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

"the tool by DieBuche" ? What is this ? Do you have a link ? Teofilo (talk) 10:55, 18 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
It's the "Nominate category for discussion" link on every category description page (requires js). --  Docu  at 12:19, 18 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

{{Editprotected}}I have implemented Saibo's workaround on Commons:Categories_for_discussion/preload2 and linked that new template from Template:Category for discussion (diff). All we need now is that an admin edits the present protected page and removes the extra "Reasons for discussion request+signature" line. Thanks Saibo. Teofilo (talk) 11:14, 18 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I have modified it, so we do not need to edit the protected page. Better since I do not know if it is preloaded also e.g. from the quickdelete script. The button in second step at Commons:Categories_for_discussion works now. But the preload link in Template:Category_for_discussion seem not to work. Did it before? It is not related to the preload stuff. See: this link from the template and this modified link: {{{year}}} and {{{month}}} seems not to get resolved. I've changed it to the hardcoded month and year now.. Cheers --Saibo (Δ) 18:41, 18 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The template is not supposed to be used directly. It is supposed to be used by {{subst:Cfd}}. Year and month are filled by Template:Cfd. Teofilo (talk) 11:45, 20 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, I see. However - the UNIQ bug is fixed and gets live soon and then we can revert to the original preload. Cheers --Saibo (Δ) 15:32, 20 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I have reverted the changes from 2011-02-18. https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27467 Fix is live since today. Cheers --Saibo (Δ) 21:24, 23 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Checkmark This section is resolved and can be archived. If you disagree, replace this template with your comment. Saibo (Δ) 21:24, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
