Can you fix up [[Template:Unsigned2]] like you did with [[Template:Unsigned]]? :> --- [[User:Fowl|Fowl]] 19:22, 22 February 2012 (EST) | |||
:Sure... but I guess we should document what the difference is between the two, and why each one should be used. So, uh... what's the difference, and what's this new one for? | |||
:...*reads about safesubst* Hrm. So it looks like a safesubst wrapper around template:unsigned. Why not just put safesubst into template:unsigned? I don't understand! --[[User:Catwheezle|Catwheezle]] 20:06, 22 February 2012 (EST) | |||
::Unsigned template goes username|date, which if you're copy & pasting from a history you have to switch them around, with unsigned2 you just have to put a pipe inbetween the date and name and you're good. Also I just noticed the description on unsigned is more true for unsigned2: "You can copy the username and date right out of the edit history, to get something like" | |||

::: Yeah, I just wasn't understanding safesubst, I think. So what this actually does, it just flips the args, then puts in an unsigned template, with the properties the right way round: it's an invisible shim. Nice! I'm wondering if there's an even nicer way though, that lets us get away with making Template:Unsigned autodetect which way round they are, without needing another template helper. *rummages* --[[User:Catwheezle|Catwheezle]] 21:38, 22 February 2012 (EST) | |||
::::I looked into this, I think it will require a lot of [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:StringFunctions#.23explode: string exploding] so its probably not a great idea D: we could just switch them now and fix them as we see them --- [[User:Fowl|Fowl]] 21:51, 22 February 2012 (EST) | |||
::::Oh, ye of little faith. | |||
::::: OK, I've moved this discussion to the [[:Creation Kit:Community Portal/Organization#Template:Unsigned|community portal]], because it got interesting and deserved more to read it. --[[User:Catwheezle|Catwheezle]] 03:13, 23 February 2012 (EST) | |||

Works... but there seems to be some kind of sophisticated cacheing so that if it doesn't work at some point, you can't always see. Maybe. | |||
