Forum:Color template oops

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.
Forums: Index Wiki Talk

So when I made markup, I accidentally grabbed only one character, and lost the rest. Oops.

I'm starting to formulate a plan for how to bot said problem -- hopefully not too many will be on pages that have been moved. All um.. 1563 of them. Dammit.

  1. Reverse lookup to find my local copy of the original file
  2. Reconvert all 1563 of them to mediawiki format locally, with the color fix.
  3. Replace color markup one-to-one on current online version via bot

Anyway, try not to rename things with {{color}} markup for a while. Vorticity (talk) 22:49, 9 December 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads up. GethN7 (talk) 23:07, 9 December 2013 (UTC)


While it looks like the recent botting fixed almost all the color template problems, I just came across something that looks like it wasn't taken care of: A Complete Waste of Time/Quotes. Looney Toons (talk) 14:16, 3 January 2014 (UTC)
