Replace:
{{fmbox | type = editnotice | image = [[File:Ambox warning yellow.svg|40px|link=]] | text = '''You appear to be trying to create a category for [[User:{{PAGENAME}}]]'''. * If you're looking for a way to mark all pages [[User:{{PAGENAME}}]] has edited, please use the "User contributions" link at the side for their user page; you can also filter this by namespace. * If you're looking for all of [[{{PAGENAME}}]]'s subpages, please use [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3APrefixIndex&prefix={{urlencode:{{PAGENAME}}/}}&namespace=2 the page listing all user pages with the prefix "{{PAGENAME}}/"]. * If this is the page you want to create, please make a request at [[Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard]]. }}
With:
{{fmbox | type = editnotice | image = [[File:Ambox warning yellow.svg|40px|link=]] | text = '''You appear to be trying to create a category for [[{{PAGENAME}}]]'''. * If you're looking for a way to mark all pages [[{{PAGENAME}}]] has edited, please use the "User contributions" link at the side for their user page; you can also filter this by namespace. * If you're looking for all of [[{{PAGENAME}}]]'s subpages, please use [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3APrefixIndex&prefix={{urlencode:{{PAGENAME}}/}}&namespace=2 the page listing all user pages with the prefix "{{PAGENAME}}/"]. * If this is the page you want to create, please make a request at [[Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard]]. }}
The current editnotice mentions: "[[User:{{PAGENAME}}]]".
The User: here is redundant, as it is already covered in the Title Blacklist:
Category:User:.* <errmsg=titleblacklist-personal-category>
If you just put [[{{PAGENAME}}]], the links will work fine. Otherwise, the page says:
- You appear to be trying to create a category for User:User:Example. (with a redlink, most likely)
instead of:
- You appear to be trying to create a category for User:Example.
Plus, the actual "double namespace" trips another Title Blacklist entry. –ToxiBoi! (contribs) 22:38, 27 January 2020 (UTC)
