Suggestions welcome on exact wording though. To be honest: it doesn't really matter what enwiki does with the message. Do other communities like it? If the general agreement is in favor, I fail to see how one wiki's actions should cause so much backpedaling. > Here's a patch that will place footnotes at the bottom of pages which don't > have <reference/> tags while silently reporting Eww eww eww. <references /> is almost never at the bottom, and this will just encourage lazy editing/formatting of pages. I would hope the wiki never outputs markup you didn't add, only warn you when something's wrong. On semi-related note: if there's issues with how Cite outputs errors, that's for a different bug. Not within the scope of this one. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
