Template talk:MW file

Moving this box to the right?
Could we move this box to the right side of the screen? What do you all think? Adamtheclown 06:36, 22 November 2010 (UTC) Example:

Instead of this:

it would be like this:

translation tags broken
It seems, that one of the last changes to this template breaks the usage, e.g. see Manual:GlobalFunctions.php (you can see the closing translate tags, that shouldn't be). Please fix it :) --Florianschmidtwelzow (talk) 19:42, 23 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Fixed. Thanks. --Shirayuki (talk) 00:39, 24 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Great, thanks :)

Links to non-existent code in older releases
Look at Manual:HTML_templates. TemplateParser.php is a brand-new file in 1.25, so the links to
 * 1.24.2 • 1.23.9

are broken. Is there a way to hint to the template "Don't bother providing links to MW stable release number and MW legacy release number, the code wasn't available? Ideally it would do the right thing when the stable and release versions advance and the file becomes available in those releases. Easier said than done :)

 * The last resort is adding a "added in" parameter as for some other templates. --Nemo 05:31, 3 April 2015 (UTC)

link to doxygen doc?
I stumbled across Manual:Code/Entry, which fabricates links to doxygen docs for entry points. I wonder if we could add something similar to this template. E.g. includes/actions/Action.php is at https://doc.wikimedia.org/mediawiki-core/master/php/Action_8php.html. This file documentation rarely has anything interesting, but it usually lists the class(es) in the file, and their doxygen is sometimes good, e.g. class. -- SPage (WMF) (talk) 06:36, 5 August 2015 (UTC)
