Bug ID: 49743
Summary: TemplateData doesn't distinguish between explicit and
implicit positional parameters
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: TemplateData
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected], [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
Templates behave differently depending on whether positional parameters are
explicitly declared or not. For example, for [[Template:User]] on the English
Wikipedia, {{user|1=foo=bar}} will return user links for the user "foo=bar",
but {{user|foo=bar}} will generate an error, as there is no "foo" parameter.
However, there does not seem to be any way of distinguishing explicit
positional parameters from implicit positional parameters using TemplateData. I
am guessing that this ability will be needed for the Visual Editor to properly
handle existing templates - see also bug 49739.
