[edit] Overriding checktalk?
Is there a way to override check talk if the template is included on a particular page as an example? --TheFarix (Talk) 13:05, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
- only with subst:Check talk and removing categories, I suppose ;-) --katpatuka 08:56, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
- I've created {{check talk wp}}. --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 03:26, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] #switch with namespaces variables
To avoid possible localization issues one could use the following namespaces variables for #switch:
|{{ns:0}}
|{{ns:Project}}
|{{ns:User}}
|{{ns:Image}}
|{{ns:Category}}
|{{ns:MediaWiki}}
|{{ns:100}}
and a bit more down {{ns:template}}. --katpatuka 08:55, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Make more readable
Could someone change the warning to read more prominently like so: This template is misplaced. It belongs on the talk page: Template talk:Check talk.? Thanks. (→Netscott) 10:15, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
- {{editprotected}} done. CMummert · talk 12:30, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Broken?
I noticed a while ago that this template doesn't seem to be working. Nothing seems to have been changed, so I'm wondering if this is a MediaWiki thing? If someone could fix this, it would be much appreciated. Dancter 06:25, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Add protected page template
{{Editprotected}} This template needs a protected page template on it (even the little lock icon version would do). — SMcCandlish [talk] [cont] ‹(-¿-)› 11:13, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
Done Added the {{protected template}} notice. Adambro 14:07, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] working
It isn't working guys. --Andersmusician $ 17:16, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

- ALso, check talk only works with Template:Infoboxrequested, see Category:Main pages with misplaced talk page templates, only shows articles with infobox requested. --Andersmusician $ 17:22, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
- I think it will work if the talk namespace check is changed to
{{#ifeq: {{NAMESPACE}}|{{SUBJECTSPACE}}|<font color="red">'''''This [[Wikipedia:template|template]] is misplaced. It belongs on the [[Wikipedia:talk page|talk page]]:'' [[{{TALKPAGENAME}}]].'''</font>}}

[edit] Confusing and misleading on some category pages
It obviously makes sense that a "talk page style" template shouldn't also be used on article space categories, but I've noticed this message appearing on things like stub categories (for example, Cat:California County Route stubs), where things like Wikiproject notices are completely appropriate. Since there's no way to distinguish in wikicode between project-space and article-space categories (wouldn't be a bad idea if this were possible, but that's one for the devs), I think it might be better to exclude the message from that namespace. Failing which, I'd suggest an 'override' parameter, or at the very least, a caveat about the use of this in templates that might be transcluded in such a way. Alai 02:01, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Add category
{{editprotected}} Please add the following to the bottom of the template page:
<noinclude>[[Category:User warning templates|Check]]</noinclude> Thanks. GregManninLB (talk) 17:01, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
- I don't think this is a user warning template... --- RockMFR 17:20, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
- Agree that doesn't seem to fit, but at the same time this template should go into a category. Unless there's something more specific, Category:Wikipedia utility templates or Category:Wikipedia metatemplates work for me. – Luna Santin (talk) 22:26, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
