[edit] Old discussion

How do you use it?

Possible alternatives? Template:Edittemplate, Template:Edt, Template:Edit?

If used from other templates, this sometimes formats badly, with the closing square bracket landing on the next line. I used non-breaking spaces to no avail. Can we not get rid of the brackets altogether? JFW | T@lk 14:38, 19 Dec 2004 (UTC)

When getting a printable view, the 'edit' links don't appear on each section. Is there a way to do that with this, so that the 'edit' link won't appear on the printable view? There's a CSS tag for it, set up in the stylesheets, I'd think---like the tag that makes external URLs print on paper but not on the screen. grendel|khan 04:51, 2004 Dec 28 (UTC)

[edit] PAGENAME

Couldn't it be simplified with "PAGENAME" that template:otheruses use?--Jerryseinfeld 18:17, 3 Jan 2005 (UTC)

No. — Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason 18:31, 2005 Jan 3 (UTC)
Okay, I see it just reads the variables fromt he current page.--Jerryseinfeld 21:05, 3 Jan 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Look

Perhaps it can be changed to this to look like the style sheet for the "regular" "sections".--Jerryseinfeld 20:30, 3 Jan 2005 (UTC)

<font class="noprint" style="white-space: nowrap; font-size:smaller; "><small>[[{{SERVER}}{{localurl:{{{1}}}|action=edit}} edit]]</font>

The brackets were readded pending further discussion.--213.238.212.98 15:07, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)

To Jerry: What is wrong with the small tag? —Cantus…☎ 05:01, Jan 8, 2005 (UTC)

It doesn't resize, (shortcut ctrl+mousewheel), the segments/headlines use font-size:smaller; from class="editsection" from main.css.--Jerryseinfeld 05:18, 8 Jan 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Font tag is obsolete, isn't it?

Why is it still in use then? Wouldn't span be enough?

[edit] Please add category sort key

This template is protected. It needs a sort key added to the category link, so

[[Category:Wikipedia maintenance templates]]

needs to change to

[[Category:Wikipedia maintenance templates|{{PAGENAME}}]]

{{edit protected}} Can the category Category:Internal link templates be added to the <noinclude></noinclude> bit of this template? Netscott 15:00, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Add new template

Can you add {{Ed right2}} to the "See also" section? I created this template to remove the namespace parameter from {{Ed right}}. — Super-Magician (talk • contribs • count) ★ 23:30, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Eu InterWiki

Please, add the next interwiki if it is possible: eu:Txantiloi:Aldatu. Thanks.--Berria 21:22, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

Done.--Commander Keane 00:01, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] External link icon

It seems a bit strange that the edit link has the same icon as external links (image:external.png). It could be removed by adding style="background-image:none; padding-right:0" to the link code (which consequently would have to be an old-fashioned, non-wiki-styled <a> tag). --Fred Bradstadt 21:25, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

Or you could just use <span class="plainlinks">. --ais523 13:12, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Article editing templates

In addition to listing the related templates, there should be mention of the templates which are used to mark articles which are undergoing extensive revision. I'd mention them if I knew them. (SEWilco 18:10, 2 May 2007 (UTC))
