 Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{edit template-protected}} template. I made this change, thinking that it made sense, but as I was responding here, I realized that {{unsigned}} uses the same syntax, and this template has looked the same for a while (Since 2007, apparently.). I am in favor of this change, but it should be discussed, and any change should be applied to {{unsigned}} at the same time, so that talk page should be notified of this discussion. – Jonesey95 (talk) 02:55, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Template-protected edit request on 18 September 2022

[edit]

I would like to replace the <small> tags with <span> tags, to match that of {{subst:Unsigned}} (see Special:Diff/989618168):

<small class="autosigned"><span class="autosigned" style="font-size:85%;">

</small></span>

 Not done: This template's code is simpler. I have reverted a convoluted edit to {{Unsigned}} by a controversial editor (which was followed by a good-faith edit to clean it up instead of a revert) so that these two templates are matched again. Thanks for noticing this inconsistency. – Jonesey95 (talk) 14:29, 19 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Edit request 25 October 2024

[edit]

Description of suggested change: This is a duplicate request to another for {{unsigned}}. That request was declined, after (correctly) noting that prepended space chars for usernames are ignored by both [[User:<user>]] and [[Special:Contributions/<user>]].

However for some reason, the automatic removal of a prepended space char does not seem to apply to IP addresses in [[Special:Contributions/<IP user>]] links. Compare (the corrected unsigned IP links at) newer edit with (my not working unsigned IP links in) older edit for a wide swath of examples.

To pick out an example, see the signature for the comment "I am sure Accenture would be bigger than SAP." User:_144.36.234.188 works as expected, while Special:Contributions/_144.36.234.188 does not (observe the correct Special:Contributions/144.36.234.188 has entries). Because copying and pasting Wikipedia link text tends to include a leading space, this certainly has affected a few of my previous manual signing edits, and I worry it may affect other pages as well; since this is a subst template, I'm not sure CX Zoom's fix will address older errors.

Diff:

From:

{{{1<noinclude>|Example</noinclude>}}}

To:

{{{{{|safesubst:}}}trim|{{{1<noinclude>|Example</noinclude>}}}}}}}

Unless there is a developer use-case for the leading space in IP addresses, maybe this belongs at phab:? Tule-hog (talk) 20:35, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I submitted T378357, but bugs sometimes take years to get fixed. Unless there are any objections, I recommend adding {{trim}} to this template. – Jonesey95 (talk) 14:59, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Done I took a look at the code to see how easy it would be to trim the IP address in Special:Contribs, and it looked like it wasn't a quick fix, so let's go! * Pppery * it has begun... 02:45, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
