Protected edit request on 6 May 2019

Four issues should be addressed.

1. Two of the templates should not be bulleted because bulleting them causes Multiline table in list lint errors: {{rangeblock}} and {{Tor}}.
2. Many of the templates should not be bulleted because bullets causes part of the content to display outside the box.
3. The user of this page needs to see the template name together with the template display.
4. One of the templates is listed twice.

I have solved these four issues in User:Anomalocaris/sandbox/Lint Test. Please take the contents of that template as replacement markup for MediaWiki:Ipbreason-dropdown/sandbox. — Anomalocaris (talk) 06:51, 6 May 2019 (UTC)

 Not done for now: @Anomalocaris: Isn't this the same as MediaWiki_talk:Ipbreason-dropdown#Protected_edit_request_on_14_February_2018? That conversation still holds. This is a sandbox, so, okay, but the content you've created in your sandbox can't be used on the actual page so it's not helpful here. That being said, I think we can just blank the sandbox if it's causing linter headaches, since it was part of a redesign from four years ago and wasn't ever challenged or used since. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 14:07, 6 May 2019 (UTC)

Amorymeltzer: Thank you for your attention to this. I had forgotten about my edit request on 14 February 2018 of another "template". If this design is no longer on the table, I would favor blanking the page. —Anomalocaris (talk) 19:53, 6 May 2019 (UTC)

Well, it's definitely "on the table" since it was what got used in the actual dropdown, but I'll blank it with a note here, especially since subpages aren't enabled here. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 19:58, 6 May 2019 (UTC)

Thanks! —Anomalocaris (talk) 20:21, 6 May 2019 (UTC)
