MediaWiki talk:Missingarticle

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Suggestion: In case the reader thinks it's a bug direct him/her to MediaZilla: instead of requesting him/her to report to an administrator. (Or at least list both options in case it is expected not many would be interested in reporting bugs.) -- Paddu 07:23, 19 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Requests for sysop attention explicitly forbids contacting sysops about bugs, so that text must be removed from this message. -- Paddu 20:27, 26 Mar 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Link to deletion log

Please add

<span class="plainlinks">([{{fullurl:Special:Log/delete|page={{FULLPAGENAMEE}}}} view $1's deletion log])</span>

to the end of the third paragraph (it renders as (view $1's deletion log)), just before the full stop; this will make it easier to check if the page has been deleted. --ais523 15:59, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

Done. --Ligulem 22:26, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Some grammar changes

1. In paragraph 4, please remove the comma between "permission" and "may".
2. In paragraph 5, "If this is not the case, you may have... " should be changed to "If none of the above is the case, you may have..." since several cases are suggested. Kavadi carrier 09:03, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

Both changed seem uncontroversial to me, so I have done both. Tizio 16:32, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] id attribute

{{sudo}}

Enclose this message in a <div> with an id attribute, thus:

<div id="mw-missingarticle"> ... [message content] ... </div>

so that it may be referred to using CSS. Thanks – Gurch 19:48, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
