| == Bot tagging disambiguation articles as uncategorized == | |||
| BetacommandBot has been marking articles as uncategorized when they have a category. Disambiguation articles such as ] and ] were tagged with <nowiki>{{uncategorized}}</nowiki>, but they were already in a category. When articles are tagged with <nowiki>{{disambig}}</nowiki>, it automatically puts them in ]. This is an appropriate way to categorize disambiguation pages. Please modify BetacommandBot to ignore disambiguation pages when checking for a category. Thank you. --] <sup>]</sup> 13:18, 27 December 2007 (UTC) | |||

If I don't see a good reason for an edit I don't understand, and I don't get one from the editor, I revert it—that's not a threat, it's letting you know where I'm coming from. However, I'd appreciate it if you could clarify your explanation a bit.

| :I the other templates you are talking about dont use external links. I am attempting to clean up the mainspace and remove external links to wikipedia that should be internal, or be removed. the use of external links in templates is not a good practice and is normally avoided along with the fact that when ever you use one of these templates with external links it just makes it all that harder to work with improper links. ] 20:52, 28 December 2007 (UTC) | |||

| Why remove links in stub templates to "edit this page"? ] seems to say this is acceptable. ] (] 23:07, 28 December 2007 (UTC) | |||
| :It creates a lot of un-needed external links that make it very very difficult to work with the real links that are on wikipedia. Ive seen a lot of pages that use external links, but should be using internal, and others that are reference problems. with the mass addition of these links in templates it makes it extremely difficult if not impossible to address the serious issue of improper use of those links. ] 23:14, 28 December 2007 (UTC) | |||
| ::I don't think it is uncontroversial as the ease of maintenance reasoning does not apply to avoid self-references in article space so I don't see a consensus to not have them in stub templates.
