[edit] Comment by Lvr

{{editprotected}} I'm not an expert in template-making. After a quick attempt, I'm turning to specialists: is it possible to add an optional label in this template, in order to produce "See: [[real page|label]]". It could be interssing if, in the real page is a section of article like [[real page#section|real page]]. It'd be nicer. Lvr 14:22, 14 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] One parameter is all that's needed

This template should be in this format:

{{seealso|[[SomePage]] & [[SomeOtherPage]]}}

<div class="notice">''Further information: {{{1}}}''</div>

It should take one single parameter, and so either one page, a section link, or a string of pages can be given. -- Netoholic @ 16:06, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

We have a template, ({{further}}) that does it that way. I'd suggest either humanly or robotically changing articles to use further instead, that way no article using the template gets broken for any period of time. In the meantime, I'm just trying to reduce dependency on qif, while keeping similar semantics. — FREAK OF NUR_xTURE (TALK) 23:49, Jan. 8, 2006

please add {{Further}} as a See Also via noinclude tag. -- Zondor 00:45, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

• Done. howcheng {chat} 17:34, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Redirect

If obsoleted by {{further}}, all instances should be updated and this should be redirected there. — Omegatron 02:31, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Deprecation of tdeprecated

The format currently used for {{tdeprecated}} is out of date. Can I please get a sysop to change this:

{{tdeprecated|Further}}

To this:

{{tdeprecated|See|Further}}

Thanks in advance. ^demon^{[omg plz]} 23:04, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

Change made per your request. -- Renesis (talk) 00:30, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

This page has been nominated for deletion by 100110100 (talk • contribs • count). It needs a TFD tag. Night Gyr (talk/Oy) 23:06, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

This template may be deprecated, but it is still transcluded into over 1,000 pages. I closed the deletion discussion. —Doug Bell ^talk 07:18, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Why

Why has this template deprecated?100110100 07:11, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

Why has this template deprecated in favor of {{further}}?100110100 07:15, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

Sadly, the person who added a "deprecated" note did not reference the relevant discussion, but I was able to find somebody who knows why: It offers no benefit beyond {{further}} and adds the complication that users need to use multiple parameters, plus processing of the existence checks. That is why it was deprecated.

If you still want to un-deprecate this, add an {{editprotected}} here and ask for it to be undeprecated until the relevant discussion has been properly linked to. --GunnarRene 21:38, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Can

Can we change this template so it can have infinite arguments?100110100 07:17, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

{{further}} can link to an infinite number of articles. Just write "Article 1, Article 2, .... and Article N". --GunnarRene 21:40, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Spacing

I know this template is deprecated, but there is a problem for the many pages that still use it: there is a space between the first link and the first comma if more than 3 parameters are used. –Pomte 04:04, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

Done fixed. —Quarl ^(talk) 2007-03-11 12:20Z
