Bug ID: 50512
Summary: Use a separate namespace for template data JSON
instead of requiring <templatedata> to be added to
/doc subpages
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: TemplateData
Assignee: [email protected]

Mobile Platform: ---
Consider the following links:
1) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:PagesWithProp/templatedata?limit=100
2) https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:PagesWithProp/templatedata?limit=100
As you can see, the same template data is being associated to more than one
template:
1) On enwiki, both "Template:Foo" and "Template:Foo/doc"
2) On ptwiki, both "Template:Foo", "Template:Foo/doc" and "Template:Foo/dados"
Using <includeonly><templatedata>...JSON...</templatedata></includeonly> on
"/doc" and "/dados" would make it impossible to preview the table in the same
page.
I think a better approach would be to have a specific namespace, say "JSON:"
(take this just as an example) such that "JSON:XYZ" would hold the JSON for
"Template:XYZ" (and no other template). So it could be transcluded to "/doc"
subpages IF the users want that table in the middle of the documentation (which
is not always desirable, since it seems a little technical for newbie users,
repetitive - because of the template name, its label and its description - and
will be too big for templates with a lot of parameters and aliases)
