Articles using [[Template:inflation]] with CURRENTYEAR
It's recently come to my attention that many articles use {{tl|inflation}} but, rather than letting the inflation template figure out the year of the inflation data or using {{tl|inflation/year}}, they use the magic word
- Primarily, the inflation data is updated manuallly and the latest year in the inflation template for each country is not necessarily the current year (for example Template:Inflation/UK/dataset only goes up to 2023; also see the "end_year maximum" column of the "supported countries" table in the documentation for the {{tl|inflation}} template). Therefore, listing the current year causes inaccuracies.
- It may well make reuse of our content more difficult unnecessarily.
In general, a replacement string that should catch most of these expressed in plain English would be
Change name of infobox parameter on articles
Change articles containing the parameter "long" on :Category:Pages using infobox artifact with unknown parameters to "length". Thanks. RajanD100 (talk) 02:54, 17 June 2025 (UTC)

Tag articles for merge
Tag LUGSTUBS2 talk pages
The WP:LUGSTUBS2 mess is winding up. Every article in [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Lugstubs_2_list&oldid=1212279109 the original list] (1,106 articles) needs to have an {{tl|old prod}} added to it. The template should say:
Regardless of whether the article is still in the mainspace or has been moved to draftspace, the talk page should be tagged. The possibly tricky part is:
- Aamer Ishaq now redirects to List of Pakistan National Shipping Corporation cricketers. The old prod tag needs to go in Talk:Aamer Ishaq, and not on Talk:List of Pakistan National Shipping Corporation cricketers.
I'd estimate that as much as two-thirds of the original list could be redirects now.
There's no special rush to get this done; any time in the next month or so is probably fine. WhatamIdoing (talk) 04:11, 21 June 2025 (UTC)

Change every [[List of extrasolar planets]] to [[Lists of planets]]
List of extrasolar planets has [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:WhatLinksHere/List_of_extrasolar_planets tons of links] in many see also lists, but the issue is that this list does not exist; we do not have a single list with all the exoplanets, so this name is misleading.
Therefore, i suggest changing every single link from List of extrasolar planets to Lists of planets. 21 Andromedae (talk) 15:08, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
:It might not be appropriate to make this change if the link is in prose for example, so I'm not sure about doing this change. GalStar (talk) 19:51, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
:This was originally brought up at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2025 June 23#List of extrasolar planets where I mentioned that an AWB fix might be possible, however I also stated that there would need to be a consensus that the change is desirable first. {{ping|21.Andromedae}} if you (or someone else) has sought this consensus please could you link to it.
