Custom tags[editar código]
When searching for tags, the user-defined ones are listed under the last regular section instead of under the "Custom tags" section, as they are without search. 𝟙𝟤𝟯𝟺𝐪𝑤𝒆𝓇𝟷𝟮𝟥𝟜𝓺𝔴𝕖𝖗𝟰 (𝗍𝗮𝘭𝙠) 16:28, 24 January 2021 (UTC)

Pipes in RfD nominations[editar código]
When I RfD'd a page via Twinkle, instances of pipes were replaced by {{subst:!}}
, which breaks any templates with parameters in the nominator's rationale. I was able to confirm that this is specific to Twinkle; the preview function parses pipes correctly. It is possible that other queries in Twinkle are affected. Example diff. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 01:05, 26 January 2021 (UTC)
- The issue is specific to templates used inside
ref
tags as substitution doesn't work in them. – SD0001 (talk) 10:29, 26 January 2021 (UTC)
PROD: Prevent creation of discussion pages[editar código]
Hi, I very often propose files for deletion and then it always creates {{Old prod}} on the talk page. Is there any way to add an option that prevents this/that you can turn this off? I have already created over 400 unnecessary talkpages, and for the few files that are not deleted, you can also read in the page history that the file was once suggested for deletion. --TheImaCow (talk) 06:20, 26 January 2021 (UTC)
- Not to ask the impertinent question, but who cares? If the page is deleted, the talk is deleted along with it, and if the page isn't deleted, the {{old prod}} has successfully been added to the talk page to inform users of the existence of an old prod. I see no downside. Primefac (talk) 11:18, 26 January 2021 (UTC)
- I care. When I want to move files to Commons, I go to Category:Unused Files and always middle-click a row of files to open them (i.e., in a new tab). The files, with which you can do nothing, or are not free, are proposed for deletion ... and if there is then in addition to the 3 other edits (notification, the actual tag, log entry) also the creation of a talk page, then it simply takes too long for me. But not only would it take too long for me, I find these "Old Prod" tags on files talks quite unnecessary in themselves. For articles with many revisions it might be helpful, but for files that only very rarely have more than 10 edits? You click once on the "History" tab and see that immediately. On the other hand, is there anyone who also looks at the file disscusion pages, if there are any? I think not. And also, I don't want to spam my edit count higher with such unnecessary edits.
- Long story short: Takes too long, is unnecessary, and spams up the edits. --TheImaCow (talk) 05:21, 27 January 2021 (UTC)
- But I thought the points was that Twinkle was doing it automatically - if you do nothing, it does it for you (from a "clicks" perspective, turning off a checkbox actually increases the number of clicks you make). If you're doing it manually, then I'm not sure why you're posting here. Primefac (talk) 11:56, 27 January 2021 (UTC)
- Opting out of old prod tagging (if there had been such an option) won't actually reduce the total time taken. This is because Twinkle schedules things such that old prod tagging takes place at the same time as notifying the creator. Making the entry to your userspace log takes place after the creator is notified. Hence the latter two are the sort of like the rate-determining steps. – SD0001 (talk) 13:41, 27 January 2021 (UTC)
Annoying error message[editar código]
Every time I load a new page on Wikipedia, I get a pink warning that says "Could not parse your twinkle preferences." Is there anything I can do to make this go away. It is getting annoying. Thanks. Scorpions13256 (talk) 20:10, 26 January 2021 (UTC)

- Scorpions13256, it's likely because you're importing User:Scorpions13256/twinkleoptions.js directly in your personal script page, User:Scorpions13256/common.js. The twinkleoptions.js file is for Twinkle to use itself, you shouldn't ever import it directly.

refunds to "your user page"[editar código]
I wrote about this issue here. I haven't surveyed other Twinkle templates, but the language in {{Welcomeauto}}
has been there a very long time. I was proposing that we write that the restoration of a deleted page would be placed in "your user space" rather than "your user page". It's a pretty small thing, but used often enough that I wanted to get some consensus before making it all by myself. — jmcgnh(talk) (contribs) 08:50, 27 January 2021 (UTC)
- That makes sense from my perspective. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 17:34, 27 January 2021 (UTC)

You are welcome. ThePersistentAddition (talk) 17:12, 27 January 2021 (UTC)

Feature request[editar código]
Hey you hard-working volunteers, thanks for Twinkle!
Had a feature request: Is it possible when using the Twinkle > Warn > search field, for the search feature to look through all templates by default and find the one you need? Currently, if you're looking for the COI template (random example), you have to either know to search through the single-issue notices page, or scroll all the way to All warning templates and run the search on that. Seems to me that a search tool should search everything. Thanks for your hard work! Cyphoidbomb (talk) 17:33, 27 January 2021 (UTC)
- A workaround would be to configure "all templates" as the default group at Wikipedia:Twinkle/Preferences#warn. 𝟙𝟤𝟯𝟺𝐪𝑤𝒆𝓇𝟷𝟮𝟥𝟜𝓺𝔴𝕖𝖗𝟰 (𝗍𝗮𝘭𝙠) 17:43, 27 January 2021 (UTC)
- Just tried it. The downside there is that the layout of templates that I've become accustomed to over the years has changed, and the neat headings have disappeared as well. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 17:53, 27 January 2021 (UTC)
- Cyphoidbomb, this should now be live, thanks to TheTVExpert! ~ Amory (u • t • c) 16:15, 31 January 2021 (UTC)
- Cool, thanks TheTVExpert! Is this something I have to turn on? It doesn't seem to work for me just yet. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 17:05, 31 January 2021 (UTC)
- Sorry, Cyphoidbomb, I meant that the group of "All templates" should now show the headers in the order expected. If you set that to your default, you can search for any template but still also see the headings you wanted. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 17:58, 31 January 2021 (UTC)
- Amory I now see the change, although I was getting used to having L4 be my default warning. Curses! I appreciate the adjustment. That said, I still think the search field should encompass all standard warnings/notices, but perhaps an argument for another time. Regards to all, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 02:22, 2 February 2021 (UTC)
- I hear ya, but counterpoint: someone who wants to give a level 3 warning and doesn't want their search results polluted with other options outside the level they've already selected. That's why the menu option with every template was created, for the broad search. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 12:22, 2 February 2021 (UTC)

Notifying deceased users[editar código]
As per this, could it be implemented that users with {{deceased}} on their talk page don't get notified of a nomination? 𝟙𝟤𝟯𝟺𝐪𝑤𝒆𝓇𝟷𝟮𝟥𝟜𝓺𝔴𝕖𝖗𝟰 (𝗍𝗮𝘭𝙠) 13:06, 28 January 2021 (UTC)
- It would probably be better for Twinkle to obey some kind of Category:Wikipedians who opt out of message delivery or similar, and deceased editors to have that placed on their page (or {{deceased}} to include it), rather than Twinkle accounting for particular templates directly. ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 13:09, 28 January 2021 (UTC)
- @ProcrastinatingReader: So, should we create a separate category like Category:Wikipedians who opt out of Twinkle notifications? 𝟙𝟤𝟯𝟺𝐪𝑤𝒆𝓇𝟷𝟮𝟥𝟜𝓺𝔴𝕖𝖗𝟰 (𝗍𝗮𝘭𝙠) 16:45, 9 February 2021 (UTC)
- Category:Wikipedians who opt out of message delivery has 3,954 pages built up over years. It might be better to just use that. ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 16:48, 9 February 2021 (UTC)
- I thought about that, but Twinkle notifications are quite different, as they concern a specific user (the page creator) rather than all users at once. I am thinking about opting out of message delivery, but would rather not opt out of XfD notifications. 𝟙𝟤𝟯𝟺𝐪𝑤𝒆𝓇𝟷𝟮𝟥𝟜𝓺𝔴𝕖𝖗𝟰 (𝗍𝗮𝘭𝙠) 16:51, 9 February 2021 (UTC)
- I've got something in the works that will allow for this, and was planning on using categories rather than templates. Things like
{{deceased}}
and{{retired}}
put/can put folks into Category:Wikipedians who opt out of message delivery, so that'd be a reasonable thing to piggy-back on/two-birds-one-stone kinda thing. I'd be inclined to say a separate category wouldn't be ideal. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 15:53, 10 February 2021 (UTC)- Twinkle messages are directed to a single user whereas that category is for mass messages (not targeted to a specific user). Quite different. Plus, we should support the ability to turn off messages from specific modules only. This is a better done via a template using hidden external links (similar to {{no talkback}}), so that they can be efficiently queried without needing to have multiple templates or categories. – SD0001 (talk) 16:45, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
- Except of course for the examples I just gave. I'm fine with using a dedicated template (I've got both written atm) but it won't avoid having multiples. It would enable limiting specific modules, so that'd be a cool feature; hadn't thought of that. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 17:07, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
- Not sure what you mean. The template could be included in those other templates. If we're fine with having multiples, then it deosn't matter if they're temlpates or categories. But the beauty of the external link trick is that we could aim for a single template:
{{no twinkle}}
(disable all) --> givesnotwinkle.com?modules=csd|prod|xfd
,{{no twinkle|csd}}
(disable just csd) -->notwinkle.com?modules=csd
. Then query prop=extlinks for notwinkle.com and parse the module list. – SD0001 (talk) 20:10, 10 February 2021 (UTC)

Note to see steps for multiple/bundled XFD discussions[editar código]
Twinkle doesn't seem support creating bundled XFD discussions, but doesn't indicate that on the XFD interface, would it be worth adding a notice like ("If nominating multiple Xs for the same discussion see WP:MULTIAFD/WP:TFDHOWTO/WP:RFDHOWTO/etc.") At User_talk:GenQuest#Lanka_Premier_League_AfDs the nominator evidently thought that this was possible, which led to duplication, busywork, and breaking the XFDCloser script. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 17:43, 28 January 2021 (UTC)
- I really appreciate many of Twinkle's wonderful features, but multi-XfD (and multi-RM) is the enhancement I'd most like to see. I know it wouldn't be easy. Certes (talk) 19:04, 28 January 2021 (UTC)

Don't display [rollback (AGF)] || [rollback] || [vandalism] buttons on the latest version of the diff page if there is only one contributor to the page[editar código]
- Go to special:diff/1001178118.
- Click [Rollback] button.
- When the Twinkle rollback, it will display the following text:
Grabbing data of earlier revisions: No previous revision found. Perhaps IN is the only contributor, or that the user has made more than 50 edits in a row.
I think that isn't necessary. That can be done by controlling the source - that is, do not show [rollback (AGF)] || [rollback] || [vandalism]
button. By the way, did you know? Alcremie's 1000th edit was made very close to the 20th anniversary day of Wikipedia. 15:33, 30 January 2021 (UTC)

TfD problem[editar código]
This has been on my mind for some time, but can Twinkle stop inserting an extra line when nominating a template for TfD? See e.g. this, this, or this for what I'm talking about.
That is, rather than
{{Tfm/dated|...}} ORIGINAL TEMPLATE CONTENT
can it be
{{Tfm/dated|...}}ORIGINAL TEMPLATE CONTENT
or perhaps
{{Tfm/dated|...}}<!-- -->ORIGINAL TEMPLATE CONTENT
(provided the bot or script used to remove the banner could correctly remove <!-- -->
as well)?
The line break could be particularly disruptive e.g. when the template is used inside <ol>...</ol>
made by #
. I assume the same applies to other types of banners such as SD, in which case </noinclude>
should be immediately followed by the first character of the template content without a line break. Nardog (talk) 12:35, 2 February 2021 (UTC)
- Many templates start with
{|
which must be at the start of a line. Otherwise the whole table code is displayed instead of rendering the table. There is also other code which must be at the start of a line. In some cases it is produced by transcluding another template so it may be hard to detect for Twinkle. Always omitting a newline would do more damage than always including it. Wikipedia:Templates for discussion#Listing a template says: "If the template nominated is inline, do not add a newline between the Tfd notice and the code of the template." The newline is the default recommendation. PrimeHunter (talk) 12:57, 2 February 2021 (UTC)- Twinkle tries to be smart: if it detects
p .Inline-Template
it defaults to inline (and likewise.infobox'
for infobox). Perhaps some additional clarification on the meaning of the menu options would be helpful? ~ Amory (u • t • c) 13:10, 2 February 2021 (UTC)- Ah, that's true. Clarification sure could help, but I think a separate checkbox would be even better (e.g. "Suppress line break after tag (recommended for inline)"). I also wonder why
|type=disabled
isn't available in the dropdown; I submit that it should be. Nardog (talk) 13:31, 2 February 2021 (UTC)
- Ah, that's true. Clarification sure could help, but I think a separate checkbox would be even better (e.g. "Suppress line break after tag (recommended for inline)"). I also wonder why
- @Nardog and PrimeHunter: For TfDs twinkle offers a "deletion tag display style" option. If set to "standard" or "sidebar/infobox", a newline is added. If set to "inline template" or "tiny inline", no newline is added. This option usually has to be selected by nominator, but is auto-set in cases mentioned by Amorymeltzer. – SD0001 (talk) 13:30, 2 February 2021 (UTC)

FFD notices[editar código]
Are there plans in the works for Twinkle to add optional FFD notices to either the talk pages where files are used or to captions (where applicable). This is the optional part of the WP:FFD Instructions, Step 3. Give due notice. The documentation suggests that there are no extra FFD options to handle this. -2pou (talk) 22:12, 8 February 2021 (UTC)

IP user notification[editar código]
When I realised I created an XfD notification at User talk:203.143.10.132 for a user whose last contributions were in 2005, I was quite amused; however, a regular Wikipedia reader might now be confused rather than amused. I think Twinkle should notify IPs whose last contributions were more than half a year ago. 𝟙𝟤𝟯𝟺𝐪𝑤𝒆𝓇𝟷𝟮𝟥𝟜𝓺𝔴𝕖𝖗𝟰 (𝗍𝗮𝘭𝙠) 16:53, 9 February 2021 (UTC)

This is for folks from other projects who maintain their local forks of Twinkle who may be bullets on their Vector menus today. Similar to last June, things were changed a bit. The fix (see PR and diff) is to simply add the mw-portlet

BLPPROD tagging should not add Old prod template to talk pages[editar código]
Twinkle currently appears to add the {{Old prod}} template to talk pages when an article is tagged as BLPPROD. However, this is incorrect behaviour, per WP:BLPPROD: "a prior declined BLPPROD nomination does not block an article from being nominated for standard PROD and vice versa." --Paul_012 (talk) 12:57, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
- I still think the template is valuable to have, for showing talkpage readers the history of the page. I don't think Twinkle should be changed. UnitedStatesian (talk) 13:13, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
- @UnitedStatesian: The solution would be a different template. I'm with Paul 012, it's confusing to have a template whose primary purpose is to remind users that a page is now PROD-ineligible when that is not the case. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 13:50, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
Change to wording of Template:Undisclosed_paid with language saying that the payer may not be the subject of the article[editar código]
Per the instructions at Template:Twinkle_standard_installation:
If you plan to make breaking changes to this template, move it, or nominate it for deletion, please notify Twinkle's users and maintainers at Wikipedia talk:Twinkle as a courtesy, as this template is used in the standard installation of Twinkle. Thank you!
The change to Template:Undisclosed_paid is the addition of the sentence:
The payer may have been the subject of the article, or a competitor, rival, associate, independent entity, etc.
So that it looks like:
This article may have been created or edited in return for undisclosed payments, a violation of Wikipedia's terms of use. The payer may have been the subject of the article, or a competitor, rival, associate, independent entity, etc. It may require cleanup to comply with Wikipedia's content policies. |
Further discussion could be at Template_talk:Undisclosed_paid#Proposal_to_add_language_to_the_template....

Twinkle XFD redirect template bug[editar código]
When nominating a redirect page for deletion, twinkle adds the Template:afd1 to the page the redirect page links to.Manabimasu (talk) 04:55, 14 February 2021 (UTC)
- @Manabimasu: I believe you're referring to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Regressive conservatism? From what I can tell, you selected the AfD option on the Regressive conservatism redirect, when you wanted to select Redirects for discussion. Is that right? I can clean up the AfD if you like, but I think that's what happened. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 16:05, 14 February 2021 (UTC)
- thanks for the info. You can clean it up.Manabimasu (talk) 22:09, 14 February 2021 (UTC)
