User:Amire80/Requests for template support

From mediawiki.org

On this page, I try to document the instances in which people asked me for help with templates on wikis in their languages. All of them could be resolved by having a repository of Global templates. I am starting it on September 4, 2021. It happened dozens of times earlier, and I should have documented it, but it's better late than never. Even after I started documenting, there are many more that I didn't have time to document. So this list is just a tiny sample.

2024[edit]

2023[edit]

  • September: Request to editing a protected global module in Tajik and Lezgi Wikipedias. (The module was copied from the Russian Wikipedia, and should have the same functionality in all the languages.)
  • June: Betawi Incubator, "a lot of missing templates" (asked on translatewiki).
  • May: Kanuri Incubator, databox.
  • May: Wollayta Incubator, Infobox settlement.
  • April: Swazi Wikipedia, infoboxes.
  • March: Kinyarwanda Wikipedia: Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Women in Red#Improvement of kinyarwanda wikipedia.
  • February: Multiple questions about templates in the Punjabi Wikipedia.

2022[edit]

  • November 1: Northern Sotho Wikipedia, references.
  • October 22: Igbo Wikipedia, flags templates (in infoboxes).
  • October 18: Haiti Wikipedia, infobox module.
  • July 1: Swahili Wikipedia, infoboxes.
  • May 10: Obolo incubator.
  • April 29: Pannonian Rusyn Incubator.
  • April 2: Runyankore Incubator.
  • January 22: Twi Wikipedia, navigation box styling.

2021[edit]

  • September 10: Nyanja (Chewa) Wikipedia, Infobox issues in general.
  • September 4: Lingala Wikipedia, Infobox settlement. The template was imported from the English Wikipedia in 2015. In 2021, someone tried updating the underlying Module:Infobox, but without updating the dependencies in the templates.
