[edit] Category

I'm removing the category from this template. There is no compelling reason to include non-content, non-maintenance categories in articles; in the unlikely event that something needs to be done to these articles, the template's list of inclusions can be used. See also Wikipedia:Categories_for_deletion/Log/2006 August 4#Category:Pages_containing_IPA, where a similar template was deleted, and Wikipedia:Categories_for_deletion/Log/2006 August 20#Category:Article_titles_with_lowercase_initial_letters for a currently ongoing discussion of a similar template.

[edit] Javascript hack

I've updated MediaWiki:Common.js to add a javascript hack that updates the title for subscripted/superscripted titles. The overriding goal for this hack is to make sure that if users copy-and-paste the title into a wikilink, that it's a valid wikilink. As such, the script only does this when the <sup> / <sub> tags are used, but doesn't replace the text up top when unicode super/subscript characters are used.

On the other hand, the script also replaces the title at the very top of the browser window. However, this title can't accept HTML, but it can accept Unicode characters. So there may not be a "best solution" for this, unless the javascript were to automatically convert the unicode character to <sup>6</sup> so it could display one version in the <h1> title and another in the <html><title> (though it's a global script that I'm trying my hardest to keep simple and maintainable). --Interiot 02:19, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
