Edit requests[]
Hi! I'm Linus Tucker, AKA Mr. Starfleet Command; you can call me Linus. I'd like to request two minor edits in the MediaWiki namespace (I would edit them myself, but these particular pages are protected even against admin edits). First, could you replace the contents of MediaWiki:Protectedpagewarning with:
<div class="warning">WARNING: This page has been locked so that only users with sysop privileges can edit it. Be sure you are following the {{ma|protection policy}}.</div>
Second, could you remove the invisible unicode control character from the end of MediaWiki:Scribunto-common-error-category? Thanks :) 🖖 Mr. Starfleet Command (talk • contribs) 21:03, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
Another edit request[]
Hey! Here to make another edit request, this time to save MediaWiki:Searchmenu-new with the following text:
'''Create the page "[[Special:EditPage/$1]]" on Memory Alpha!''' {{PLURAL:$2|0=|See also the page found with your search.|See also the search results found.}}
Thanks, 🖖 Mr. Starfleet Command (talk • contribs) 16:53, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- Hey, I made the edit, but it appears broken when I search for an uncreated page: Create the page "Special:EditPage/$1" on Memory Alpha! is how it appears. What change should be made to fix that please? --Spongebob456 talk 09:11, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
Oops, sorry! Use the following:
'''Create the page "[[Special:EditPage/$1|$1]]" on Memory Alpha!''' {{PLURAL:$2|0=|See also the page found with your search.|See also the search results found.}}
That should fix it. 🖖 Mr. Starfleet Command (talk • contribs) 13:48, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
- Done! How does that look? --Spongebob456 talk 10:42, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
Perfect. Thanks :) 🖖 Mr. Starfleet Command (talk • contribs) 13:28, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
