Template talk:Spaces

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Template:Spaces is permanently protected from editing, as it is a heavily used or visible template.

Substantial changes should be proposed here, and made by administrators if the proposal is uncontroversial, or has been discussed and is supported by consensus. Use {{editprotected}} to attract the attention of an administrator in such cases.
Any contributor may edit the template's documentation to add usage notes, categories or interwiki links.

[edit] (Redirection)

David Kernow, please forgive my saying so but it is not very polite to go counter to GFDL and not merely "move" Template:Nbsp here. Where is my work? (→Netscott) 12:17, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

Just spotted your post. Apologies in advance if I'm missing something, but I'm not sure what I've done "to go counter to GDFL" or lose some work...?  From here, the template seems to be functioning correctly...?  Puzzled, David Kernow (talk) 13:37, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
Well realizing that I don't own the Template:Nbsp, it still is my creation which now that you've redirected it has been essentially usurped. (→Netscott) 13:44, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
Why not just move it to this name rather than this redirection? (→Netscott) 13:46, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
Reading the above again, I've suddenly realized what I think you mean; I've been busy cutting and pasting material to create template /doc pages and mistakenly did the same for {{nbsp}} and {{spaces}}, compromising the history. (At least not totally, given the edit summary.)  Unless this is not what you mean, I'll happily revert and move the template as you suggest, with apologies for my error.

Yes you've got it... I think that'd be the most sensible thing to do... looking at your work it seems a bit C&Pish. :-) (→Netscott) 14:04, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

Ok, I appreciate your cooperation. Sorry if I wasn't particularly clear intially. Cheers. (→Netscott) 14:11, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for your understanding and for prodding me. I think all this means it's time for me to take a short break!...
One other thing, the {{loop}} mod is very cool, well done. :-) (→Netscott) 14:11, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
User:Polonium is the person deserving the praise; I only happened to find the template and immediately knew one place where it should be very useful. Thanks again, David (talk) 14:18, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
Yes I saw that, he's created an awesome template but I was referring to your mod of adding it here... that was very cool. :-) (→Netscott) 14:20, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
