@Evad37: Hi. Thanks for creating that template. I transferred it to arabic wikipedia but it doesn't work properly and always give me "no recent news". Any ideas about the reason?. Kind regards--مصعب (talk) 14:29, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
- @مصعب: I think it's to do with the date format on line 84 of the module. The date code
j F Y
(with lang codear
) produces output like "25 مايو 2018", but the actual current event pages on arwiki are named like ar:بوابة:أحداث_جارية/23_مايو_2018. I'm not sure what date code should be used, but the codes are the same as for the{{#time:}}
parser function, so the documentation at mw:Help:Extension:ParserFunctions##time might be able to help you. - Evad37 [talk] 15:24, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
