--- Comment #2 from TMg <[email protected]> 2012-10-29 19:05:18 UTC --- Don't make this to complicated. A simple category or special page "ContainsDeprecatedFeature" is enough. Use a generic name so it can be used for everything including deprecated parser functions and such. Add a possibility to filter the special page by namespace if you can. Done. Start with an empty list of deprecated features. Add one feature at a time. I suggest the <font> tag. Let the Wikipedia community know when that specific HTML tag or attribute will be dropped. I suggest something between 3 and 12 months. The community will do the work. If the special page is almost empty in most Wikipedia languages add the next feature to the list. I suggest the <center> tag. Then <stroke>. Then <big>. Then <tt>. The last one will be align="..." and valign="..." because it's most used and therefor requires a lot of work to replace. (Note: As explained in bug 40329 it is *NOT* possible to simply replace all align="..." with text-align: ... Replacing such stuff always requires a user to look at the code and to understand what it does. Some replacements can be done with a semi-automatic bot or user scripts. But it never should be done by the MediaWiki software.) We are currently trying to collect possible replacements: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProjekt_HTML5 We would like to start but we need a possibility to search for "<font", for example. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
