It's.....not "Fun". It's.....a turnoff. --Occono (talk) 14:38, 5 July 2009 (UTC)

Can we have a Parser Function and a Custom mask?

Hi, I was thinking of adding this code and creating an importance scale so we can have a bot count all of our articles? Other than Namespaces, everything would either be a Stub or Bottom importance.

<!--Standard for this project: Bottom importance-->
|impoartance={{#switch: {{lc:{{{importance}}}}}
|TOP|Top|top|HIGH|High|high|MID|Mid|mid|LOW|Low|low|BOTTOM|Bottom|bottom|NO|No|no = Bottom
|NA|Na|nA|na = NA
 |#default={{#switch:{{NAMESPACE}}
   |User talk
   |Mediawiki talk
   |Help talk      = NA
   |File talk      = NA
   |Category talk  = NA
   |Portal talk    = NA
   |Template talk  = NA
   |Wikipedia talk = NA
<!--Reason for this Parser Function: This project holds all articles of Utmost Bottom importance!-->
 |#default={{#switch:{{lc:{{{importance}}}}}
  |                  = Bottom
 }}
}}
}}

and a custom mask for class?

{{#switch: {{lc:{{{class}}}}}
<!--Standard for this project: Stub-->
<!--NA, Image, Category, Disambig, Portal, Template, Project also used as needed.-->
|FA|Fa|fA|fa|FL|Fl|fL|fl|a|A|GA|Ga|gA|ga|b|B|c|C|list|List|START|Start|start|STUB|stub|Stub = Stub
 |disambig|disamb|dab|Disambig|Disamb|Dab|DAB = Disambig
 |#default={{#switch:{{NAMESPACE}}
   |User talk
   |Mediawiki talk
   |Help talk      = NA
   |File talk      = Image
   |Category talk  = Category
   |Portal talk    = Portal
   |Template talk  = Template
   |Wikipedia talk = Project
<!--Reason for this custom mask: This project will limit class to Stub-->
 |#default={{#switch:{{lc:{{{class}}}}}
  |                  = Stub
 }}
}}
}}

Of course, can always be undone! Prapsnot (talk) 22:44, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

You'll all be happy to know that NONE of the above worked Fixed. However, there is now a Custom mask that makes all articles stub class, (namespaces are still namespaces) Done. There is also a custom hook that results in "Bottom" for ALL pages.

@Tollens, it looks like this was a troll request. The IP made the change to the project page shortly before requesting this. The project is still fairly active by WP standards. I will revert accordingly. {{u|Sdkb}} ^talk 00:56, 30 November 2023 (UTC)

@Sdkb: It appears to be a completely different IP to me – the IP who made the change at WP:FUN was 2601:244:4e00:4b60:a5af:6832:7f2e:f888 more than a week ago. WT:FUN also shows no signs of activity. Tollens (talk) 00:59, 30 November 2023 (UTC)

No objection to the revert though – if people believe it is active then by definition it is. Tollens (talk) 01:01, 30 November 2023 (UTC)
