Can we just put {{#useliquidthreads:1}} in this template so it doesn't have to be beside the template? --Thunderhead 23:35, 24 March 2010 (UTC)

Collaboration vs Talk [edit]

This template refers to the article's talk page... but the tab says collaboration. I wonder if it makes sense to change the reference to the article's "collaboration" page? Philippe (WMF) (talk) 01:21, 7 November 2011 (UTC)

Makes sense to me. Done. --Pi zero (talk) 02:46, 7 November 2011 (UTC)

Link broken [edit]

Comments:No surprises for sport in 2012/2013 Australian federal budget links to Talk:No surprises for sport in 2012 instead of Talk:No surprises for sport in 2012/2013 Australian federal budget. --John Vandenberg (talk) 03:23, 19 August 2012 (UTC)

The problem clearly comes from the template's use of {{BASEPAGENAME}} for the back and collaboration links. Given that LQT is an insane kludge, however, I wouldn't care to bet on what would happen if one replaced those uses with {{PAGENAME}}. Hm. --Pi zero (talk) 03:59, 19 August 2012 (UTC)
Progress. The template already uses {{PAGENAME}} as sort key when putting the comments pages in Category:Wikinews:Commentary pages on news events, which appears to settle how the magic word behaves on those pages. --Pi zero (talk) 04:17, 19 August 2012 (UTC)
I've now actually made the change to the template. Initially it appeared to have had no effect whatsoever. At this moment it looks as if it might have worked after all. Maybe in another few minutes or hours it'll break something. --Pi zero (talk) 04:34, 19 August 2012 (UTC)
Note: it appeared not to have had no effect because I was looking at an old page that used {{Commentary}} instead of {{Commentary/LQT}}. --Pi zero (talk) 04:40, 19 August 2012 (UTC)
