Template talk:Delete

I am not very happy whit this version. It it looks nice but do not contain basic information about why it should be deleted. The old one contains more relevant information.

The reason to include more text is that if you only put the notice "This page should be deleted." and display it like a system message some admin could deleted the page like the where a automotom whitout realy looking at it. The old one is better.

I have made from those to a new one see here. I think it has the best of the both --Walter 15:08, 28 December 2005 (UTC) Reply

Looks neat! Good job. The whole "remove then comment on talk page" part I don't really like, but then I can't think of a viable alternative at the moment either... WhiteNight ^{T | @ | C} 00:28, 29 December 2005 (UTC) Reply

I made the "old version" (actually not that old) because I thought {{delete}} was the only way of nominating things for deletion (being a English Wikipedian), then I saw RfD, and realized that this served the Speedy Delete function, so I hastily imported the text from en.wikipedia. I guess a trimmed down version is best. Ambush Commander 01:56, 29 December 2005 (UTC) Reply

{{editprotected}} The link [http://toolserver.org/~quentinv57/sulinfo/{{urlencode:{{REVISIONUSER}}}} sulutil] doesn't work, and I couldn't find a replacement for it on Tool Labs. Suggest replacing it with [[Special:CentralAuth/{{REVISIONUSER}}|sulutil]]. Ekips39 (talk) 17:14, 20 February 2015 (UTC) Reply

https://tools.wmflabs.org/quentinv57-tools/tools/sulinfo.php exists but not sure if it's worth it in this case. –Krinkle ^talk 17:16, 20 February 2015 (UTC) Reply

Done We've been changing these sulutil links to Special:CentralAuth because it provides almost the same details. Interwiki link sulutil: was also recently changed to link to Special:CentralAuth. -Glaisher (talk) 04:32, 24 February 2015 (UTC) Reply

Using this template on Translations:Template:Privacy policy talk header/8/fa shows

Expression error: Unrecognized punctuation character "�".

Replace

{{#time: U | {{LOCALTIMESTAMP}} }} - {{#time: U | {{REVISIONTIMESTAMP}} }}

by

{{#time: U | {{LOCALTIMESTAMP}} |en}} - {{#time: U | {{REVISIONTIMESTAMP}} |en}}

Please replace the content of this template with the sandbox version. I improved code readability and fixed some HTML lints. NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh 19:56, 18 May 2022 (UTC) Reply
