User Namespace template problem
How about adding a parameter that tells the template which namespace to use? For instance, I adopted a User Box. That user box was listed on a page with {{tl|Tlrow}}. I updated the line listing the user box -- only to find that Tlrow doesn't work with templates in the User namespace. The new template would default such that the existing behaviour would be the default. Will (Talk - contribs) 04:48, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
Adding-current-page-to-category problem
Wikipedia:Userboxes/WikiProjects, etc., adds themselves to every category for which a category-adding userbox is listed, as a result of this template. Isn't there some way to short-circuit that? I don't know enough about the "esoterics" of WP templating to be sure. It kinda lame to have Wikipedia:Userboxes/WikiProjects show up in
Problems with default values for parameters (<nowiki>{{inappropriate person}}</nowiki>)
It seems this template has a problem with the
Parameters
Neither this template nor {{t|Tlrow2}} really worked for this use case, where I wanted to show a template that should always have a parameter specified. It'd be nice if the functionality of this could be expanded (perhaps merging in Tlrow2}} so that parameters could be specified (without resulting in multiple versions transcluded). Invoking {{t|Tlx}} rather than {{t|Tl}} would seem to be the way to do it. Or maybe my use case is just niche and substing out was the right move. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 01:07, 3 January 2024 (UTC)
