Re: Your closure of the PDFlink TfD

Hi Plastikspork. You closed the above TfD as merging the PDFLink template into the cite * family of templates. However, I'm not entirely clear what should happen in cases where the PDFLink template is being used for something other than citations (e.g. external links). The consensus at the TfD isn't entirely clear to me in that regard, I'm not sure if you considered that in your closure? I'm asking because of this bot request for approval, feel free to respond there. Thanks, - Kingpin13 (talk) 18:43, 8 May 2013‎ (UTC)[reply]

I think that consensus for deletion of this template (link to archived deletion discussion that you closed) was not respected and this template has been recreated without following appropriate procedure. Am I right? --Antidiskriminator (talk) 00:31, 6 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I think it should be moved to a List like article: it is not typical for templates to have references. --Perkohesisht ai i vjetri (talk) 00:34, 6 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

LDS Infobox

I was just reading the discussion for and against keeping the LDS infobox and I noticed that there was 3 Keeps and 3 Deletes, how does that equate to a delete? Not trying to be a squeaky wheel, just wanting to understand why! Thanks, speednat (talk) 17:29, 14 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

(tps) seems you forgot the nominator (Justin) and COGDEN, and in case anyone else is wondering, the discussion here. Frietjes (talk) 19:21, 14 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Infobox oil field

Hi, Plastikspork. I left this message originally at Jimp's talk page but maybe you could help. There seems to be a problem with {{Infobox oil field}} (field:est_oil_t). For some reasons this field has conversion error (e.g. see the infobox at Gunashli oilfield). I don't know how to fix it. Another issue is that this field uses for conversion only the standard API value of 33.4. However, some fields have a different API value. Is it possible to add the API field to the template and to use that value (if the API value is not defined, the value 33.4 should be used instead)? Thank you in advance.

Hi. You're receiving this message because you are a major contributor to {{Infobox dam}}. You opinion on this cleanup proposal is very much appreciated. Best regards, Rehman 14:36, 25 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Another dashes.js patch required please

Right now, the dashes script is causing problems such as this to things inside {{DNB cite}}. Could you possibly adjust the script so that it skips those too? Thanks, -- Ohc ¡digame! 16:25, 30 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
