Trial complete. I started with these then switched to these to preserve spacing. Hazard-SJ ✈ 00:23, 19 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
What is the behavior if a template has both |slogan=
and |caption=
? — Earwig talk 01:13, 1 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- If there's such a case it will skip. Hazard-SJ ✈ 02:51, 25 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Can you not remove whitespace around the parameter name and leave it as in the original "| slogan =" -> "| caption =" not "|caption=" [1]. Should be trivial with some whitespace Regex. — HELLKNOWZ ▎TALK 22:27, 25 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I'll be using mwparserfromhell which should attempt to preserve whitespace. Hazard-SJ ✈ 05:17, 28 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Well, actually, it depends on how you use it. Also, as I mentioned above, I fixed the issue for the last set of edits.
Approved for extended trial (50 edits). Please provide a link to the relevant contributions and/or diffs when the trial is complete. — HELLKNOWZ ▎TALK 07:50, 28 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Trial complete. I made 52 more edits. The script is also now available (see above). Hazard SJ 08:15, 29 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Approved. Sorry for delay. All looks good, quite a simple one. I'm okay to extend this from one-time task to running when requested in the future if requested by someone else following a consensus to do so. — HELLKNOWZ ▎TALK 21:42, 12 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
