Auto-grey redirects via Lua?[edit]

@Rfassbind: I saw this and thought I could write a small helper template, like {{Meanings of minor planet names/Grey}}, that will check the page for a redirect and return the necessary table wikitext to grey it out, and otherwise return normal table wikitext. What do you think?   ~ Tom.Reding (talkdgaf)  11:55, 6 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Tom.Reding:. Sure, go for it! Rfassbind – talk 12:53, 6 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Also consider to reuse some of your new code for the templates {{TOC001}} and {{Meanings of minor planet names}}, where automatic #R-detection and greying-out links could be applied as well, I think. Rfassbind – talk 13:08, 6 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, between the helper template & {{LinkCatIfExists2}}, I believe I can cover all cases.   ~ Tom.Reding (talkdgaf)  13:53, 6 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Totally forgot about this, but finally got around to it, via {{MoMP index element}}...   ~ Tom.Reding (talkdgaf)  22:01, 18 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

External links in lists[edit]

Hi, would it be possible to turn all the references on the subpages (the lists) to proper references with <ref></ref>. I find it confusing that these pages have a different system and use other symbols. Including other information about the url such as name and archive url also helps the verifiability long term.

I agree. These should be turned into proper citations. Rublamb (talk) 14:42, 22 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
