Template talk:Cleanup taskforce notice

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

You have new messages (last change).

Usage of this template has changed - please enter the following on the Talk page of articles that the Cleanup Taskforce is working on: {{cleanup taskforce notice|Taskforce subpage title}}

i.e. add the title of the relevant sub-page on Cleanup Taskforce (not the title of the page you are working on) e.g. the subpage Wikipedia:Cleanup Taskforce/Doctor Alexander Manette refers to the article Alexander Manette so the message on Talk:Alexander Manette is: {{cleanup taskforce notice|Doctor Alexander Manette}}

This means more to type, but links are no longer broken when the subpage has a different title to the article itself, for example in the following cases:

  • The subpage title is "Chocoholic needs copyedit" or similar
  • The subpage refers to multiple articles
  • The article referred to on the subpage has been:
    • moved as part of the cleanup
    • merged as part of the cleanup

SteveW: Thanks for your improvement. My original way worked okay, but got messed up on some pages when the listing on the Cleanup Taskforce wasn't the same as the article title. This will clear up any problems. --Randy 02:53, 1 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Dyson vacuum

I'm inspired by the old Template:Sucks template idea that's on BJAODN (I forgot which number, I replicated it on my userpage). I think the Cleanup Taskforce should use the Dyson vacuum (right) as its symbol. Because nothing cleans better than a Dyson.

Just an idea. At least I posted it here first instead of unilaterally implementing it in the template and on the taskforce page. --Kitch 20:04, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
