User talk:TripleU/Random Propaganda

Nifty

This looks really neat. Are these all going to be redirects? One thing you could do is to make three templates, one for Groups, one for images, and one for other things, which would use the time templates like you are doing now to call the image/page you want. You can then have another template that uses the Currenthour or Vapor's minute one to call either the Group, Image, or Other template depending on the current hour or minute. If you have an idea of which Groups / Images / etc you want to use, I can with some of the coding. -MHSstaff 17:31, 9 January 2011 (UTC)

You should reconsider if you really want to link to Extinction. These habitual alt-abusers have been banned from Barhah.com and many legitimate hordes for a reason. -- Spiderzed▋ 17:47, 9 January 2011 (UTC)

You also may find this useful:{{Purge}}. Vapor wrote it. It loads the most recent version of the link to help get around caching problems with the time magic words. -MHSstaff 19:11, 9 January 2011 (UTC)

It doesn't appear that {{Purge}} would work in this case. It would take you to the original page (i.e. User:TripleU/Random Propaganda) instead of the intended redirect. See here. ~ 20:02, 9 January 2011 (UTC)

Inclusion problems?

Trips, I'm not sure if you read my edit comments last night or if they made sense if they did (it was late). Something odd was happening last night but seems to be fixed now. But what I found is that redirects and inclusions weren't playing nice. So for example #Redirect[[Image:Rrfposter00.jpg]] was working but #Redirect[[:Image:Rrfposter00.jpg]] did not. Notice the colon in front of "Image". This seemed to have broken the redirect. I played around with it and the same thing happened when I placed a colon in front of a normal wiki page. It mysteriously reverted to whichever version of the page was previously saved. Whatever was happening, it seems to be alright now. I'm not seeing the same problem, but its not to say it won't happen again. ~ 20:02, 9 January 2011 (UTC)
