This is true. Except, critically, for the use case of templates in talk page headers. For your average talk page post, templates are substituted. Or, to put it another way, it's not the worst thing in the world if changes to the templates aren't immediately reflected. This is not the case for talk page headers; templates are frequently used in headers on busy pages (such as Wikiprojects), and users expect changes to the header template to be immediately reflected in the header itself. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
