How does Module:Wikiproject banner inherit the class parameter from WPBS? I'm trying to troubleshoot an issue I'm having on another wiki. If the WPBS has a class, the project banner comes up unassessed. Yesterday, I exported the latest diffs of each module, and 99% of it works out of the box, but it's not inheriting...it's coming up as Unassessed-Class. –[[User:Fredddie|Fredddie]][[User talk:Fredddie|™]] 04:50, 13 June 2024 (UTC) |

Could use some help debugging, the WPBS isn't translating the NA-class through to the various projects, and I'm losing my damn mind over it. I can set the class to Start, C, etc, but "Redirect" and "NA" don't seem to do anything. Primefac (talk) 18:07, 2 May 2024 (UTC)
- That is the intentional behaviour :) All NA-classes should be detected automatically. I'll take a look ... — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 06:42, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
- As soon as a redirect is proposed for deletion is stops being a redirect, and so is not automatically detected by the template. I have posted at Module talk:Pagetype to see if we can fix that — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 11:57, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
- Cool, thanks for that. I still think setting
|class=NA
(or redir) should actually do what it says... I wouldn't be surprised if there are pages that a project didn't want to classify. Primefac (talk) 12:10, 3 May 2024 (UTC)- Redirects under discussion should now be detected as redirects — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 08:54, 9 May 2024 (UTC)
- That's great (legitimately, thanks for following up with that), but it still doesn't change the fact that if a page should (for whatever reason) manually be marked as NA, it cannot be. Primefac (talk) 10:01, 9 May 2024 (UTC)
- There was a lot of discussion about this when we started implementing PIQA. See Template talk:WikiProject banner shell/Archive 10#Ignore class on non-article pages? for some background. This was mainly about ignoring
|class=redirect
on pages which were not redirects, but it had the consequence that all non-article classes defined in|class=
are now ignored, as they can be detected automatically — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 11:26, 9 May 2024 (UTC)

Question from Lookinsidecoach (06:07, 15 May 2024)
hey martin, I'm new here and want create an article.can you help me? --Lookinsidecoach (talk) 06:07, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
- Hi, you could read Help:Your first article for information. What topic would you like to write about? You can write a draft article and only submit it when you think it is ready — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 08:04, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
Query
Hello, MSGJ,
I noticed that you tagged Category:Articles using WikiProject banner shell with empty class parameter for CSD C1 speedy deletion. Would it also be suitable to remove the empty cat tag from parent category Category:Pages using WikiProject banner shell without a project-independent quality rating and tag it as an empty category? Just thought I'd check in about it. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 18:51, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
- No thank you, we are still using that one. Cheers — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 08:38, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

Question from Fauji Enthusiast (17:27, 19 May 2024)
Hi, let me tell you a scenario. I want to create a battle but I'm not sure how to add references in the battle infobox. Could you please tell me? I want to use a reference i got for the infobox, and for something else. Basically, I'm going to reuse the reference i put in the battle on other paragraphs as well. Thanks. Also, what is the difference between footnotes, references and sources? Thanks so much and have a good day! :) --Fauji Enthusiast (talk) 17:27, 19 May 2024 (UTC)

Note on Arb Enforcement blocks
Your unblock here was out of process, as only a clear consensus at WP:AE or WP:AN can overturn an arbitration enforcement block. In this circumstance I don't have any issue with the unblock, but you should reach out about such unblocks since it's one of those things with Any administrator who revokes or changes a contentious topic restriction out of process (i.e. without the above conditions being met) may, at the discretion of the Arbitration Committee, be desysopped.
1 attached to it, like wheel-warring.
Again, to be perfectly clear, I'm not complaining about the unblock and I am fine with it, I just wanted to make sure you were aware. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 15:18, 31 May 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for the note. I didn't spot that and thought it was just a regular block. Will look out for that next time! — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 09:08, 10 June 2024 (UTC)

Question from Siralex1973 (19:40, 4 June 2024)
hi martin, i want to public this page: Draft:One for the Mockingbird I don't undestand why it hasn't be accepted.
Can you help me please? --Siralex1973 (talk) 19:40, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- Hi there. The reasons for non-acceptance can be seen on the page: This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of music-related topics). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.
- Most songs will not meet Wikipedia's requirements of notability, so you need to provide several in-depth references to prove this — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 19:49, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
hi Martin, i don't understand why this page One for the Mockingbird was a redirect to this page Broadcast (Cutting Crew album). --Siralex1973 (talk) 19:56, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- Because it was a song from that album? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 11:31, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
Template:WikiProject Korea has positional parameters
I just noticed that Template:WikiProject Korea has positional parameters but isn't yet tracked in Category:Pages using WikiProject banner templates with positional parameters. Gonnym (talk) 22:18, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- I don't think they were actually used for anything, so have just removed from the template — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 11:29, 5 June 2024 (UTC)

Template:Counter-Vandalism Unit/fpage
I noticed Template:Counter-Vandalism Unit/fpage has escaped detection of Category:Custom class masks of WikiProject banners. Not sure if needed. Gonnym (talk) 08:54, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
- It's not a custom mask - seems to be more like {{pagetype}}. I've replaced with _PAGETYPE_ which should do the job better — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 09:00, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
