Bolding

edit

I think that "conflict of interest" should be bolded, rather than "publicly declared". I'll make the change shortly if there are no objections. {{u|Sdkb}}talk 07:10, 27 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

I'd actually like to make some changes to the wording, too. It's currently This user has made a public declaration indicating that they have a conflict of interest with regard to the following Wikipedia article: X. I think it can be simplified to This user has publicly declared that they have a conflict of interest with the Wikipedia article X or, for multiple articles, This user has publicly declared that they have a conflict of interest with these Wikipedia articles: X Y Z. {{u|Sdkb}}talk 07:20, 27 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

Regarding pronouns in the userbox

edit

Hi, I wanted to ask about this use of pronouns on this userbox template. I don’t see anything in the source code that replaces “they” with “he” or “she”, (e.g. this user is declaring he has a COI), but I’ve seen the change in action when I placed the userbox on my page. Is the ubx on the documentation page simply transcluded and outdated, or does the template replace g/n pronouns where possible? I don’t have much knowledge in regards to template editing, so I’d appreciate the clarification. Nordberg21205 (talk) 03:00, 28 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Nordberg21205, in the source code, there's Template:They have, which dynamically changes the text based on a user's gender, as indicated in their preferences. I hope that helps; feel free to lmk if you have any further questions! {{u|Sdkb}}talk 08:06, 30 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
