Help:DiscussionTools/Why can't I reply to this comment?/sv

Diskussionssidor har ingen begränsning på tillgänglig formatering. Trots att diskussionsverktyget oftast kan känna igen kommentarer finns det situationer då det är svårt eller omöjligt att se om en del av sidan är en kommentar eller var kommentaren till den borde läggas. Om korrekt beteende inte är tydligt kommer verktyget inte låta dig svara och inte gissa och därmed potentiellt förstöra sidan.

Den här sidan dokumenterar några av den fel du kan stöta på, deras orsaker och lösningar.

Ingen "svara"-länk visas
Detta uppstår när signaturen för en kommentar inte kunde hittas.

Osignerade kommentarer
Detta kan förefalla uppenbart men bara för att vara genomgående. Om det finns en kommentar som inte har en signaturs så kommer inte den att upptäckas. Diskussionssidor kan innehålla andra saker än kommentarer (t.ex. olika rubrikmallar), vilka inte kan urskiljas på korrekt sätt från osignerade kommentarer, och att lägga till svarslänkar dit vore felaktigt.

Om någon redan manuellt svarat på kommentaren, kommer deras svar och den ursprungliga osignerade kommentaren behandlas som en enda kommentar som sträcker sig över flera rader, vilket kan leda till oönskat beteende.

Inget datum eller tid
Om en signatur saknar datum eller tid, kommer kommentaren inte heller att upptäckas. Sådana kommentarer kan inte urskiljas på korrekt sätt från användarnämnanden, och att lägga till svarslänkar dit vore felaktigt.

The most common cause of this is someone adding a signature to an unsigned comment, but not adding the date and time when doing it. Templates like  often have a separate parameter, where you can copy the date and time from the page history.

Unrecognized namespace
The Reply tool is available in most of the namespaces that are used for discussions, but not in all namespaces. When this is the problem, you will be looking at a page that does not have "talk" in its namespace (e.g., ), and you will not see the "reply" link anywhere on the page.

Usually, it follows your wiki's configuration for the Signature tool in the full-page editor. In particular, it may not be available in the  (also called  ) namespace. It can be enabled in any reasonable namespace. If you need it to work in a different namespace, then ask the Editing team for help.

Ambiguous "unsigned" templates
When a template is used to sign an unsigned comment, the template must output the following:


 * A link to a user's user page, talk page or contributions page
 * A date and time (a "timestamp"), in the same format as in signatures, including the timezone in parentheses
 * The user page, talk page or contributions page link must be before the date and time (like in normal signatures)

Non-standard date or time format
If someone signs their comments with a different date or time format than the default for the wiki, their comments won't be detected.

Sometimes editors may accidentally edit another signature when adding their comments manually, breaking the format.

Another common case is a signature added to an unsigned comment without the timezone indicator (e.g. "(UTC)"), or with a different timezone than the wiki uses.

No link to the user page
Signatures must include a link to the user page, talk page or contributions of a user.

The "reply" link cannot be used to reply to this comment
You'll see this error message when the comment appears to be transcluded from another page, but the tool can't determine from which page, and therefore can't determine where to add your reply. This can be caused by:

Accidental complex transclusion
Parsoid transclusions must be well-formed HTML fragments. When the wikitext of a transcluded page doesn't generate well-formed HTML (e.g. has unclosed tags, or it generates a table row without a table), the transclusion will be extended to cover wikitext belonging to the transcluding page (or other transcluded pages).

For example, if a subpage transcluded earlier on the page has an unclosed tag, all following transcluded subpages will be marked as part of the same transclusion, until the tag is closed (or until the end of the page).

DiscussionTools only supports following simple transclusions (which consist of exactly one transcluded page, and which don't leak to surrounding wikitext).

You can often debug this by opening the page for editing in visual editor (even if visual editor is disabled in that namespace, you can do it by adding  to the URL), clicking in the offending fragment of the page, and looking at the "sidebar" in the template dialog to see if it includes more than one page or "Content" transclusions.

Wrapper templates
When a fragment of a discussion is wrapped in templates like e.g. +, the wrapped comments can't be replied to. DiscussionTools relies on Parsoid to add replies into the HTML document, but contents of transclusions are only editable as wikitext.

Usually wrapper templates are used to archive or end a discussion, so it's rarely a problem that you can't reply to these comments. If someone adds a wrapper template to a comment while you are replying to that comment, you will see an error message and will not be able to post your reply with DiscussionTools.

Sometimes an entire page may be wrapped in a template to add a decorative frame or background. In these cases, plain HTML syntax may be used instead.

Comments in template arguments
Comment which appears in template arguments, for example, can not be replied to.

Nested transclusion or parser function syntax
When a discussion page has separate subpages for e.g. each month, dynamic transclusions depending on the current date are often used to only transclude the latest few subpages, without the need to manually archive them.

When the subpage transclusion is inside a parser function like, DiscussionTools can only see the parser function, and can't determine which page is transcluded within it.

You can fix it by putting the conditional parser functions inside the transclusion syntax instead. See example.

Could not find the comment you're replying to on the page
Usually this error message indicates that someone else removed the comment from the page while you were reading it. It might have been reverted, archived, moved to another discussion page, or the signature might have been changed (e.g. if someone commented while logged out and then corrected the username, or if they expanded their comment and signed it again).

If you can still see the comment after refreshing and purging the page, and you still receive this error, it might indicate a bug in Parsoid causing it to render the page differently from the PHP parser (DiscussionTools uses Parsoid internally to add new comments). Please file a task!

Comments on this page can't be replied to because of an error in the wikitext
You'll see this error message when there is a lint error on the page caused by fostered content. Editing these pages using tools that rely on Parsoid, such as DiscussionTools or VisualEditor, can cause the content to be corrupted (large fragments of the page become duplicated).

To resolve this, you can fix the lint error in the wikitext editor. The error message includes some links that hopefully are helpful.
