It's a pretty serious issue, and I seem to recall regulatory agencies throwing their hands up in the air and saying there wasn't much they could do. ] (]) 23:55, 9 January 2016 (UTC) | |||

That, and if you considered what I said "uncivil", you must really have a low threshold for what you consider "uncivil".

== Image usage Laugh Track == | |||
Hi - I noticed some of the images that were removed from the ] article and I want to understand the logic behind it. I see the reference to WP:NFCC#8 - Non-free content is used only if its presence would significantly increase readers' understanding of the article topic, and its omission would be detrimental to that understanding. Please help me understand why including these images (which are already used elsewhere) does not help increase a reader's understanding of this article's topic. It strikes me as a matter of opinion, meaning the inclusion of a title card could act as a point of reference for one reading while not making a difference to another. In particular is the removal of the image of Charles Douglass, the inventor of the laugh track. There is no logical reason (in the alternate world of Misplaced Pages or otherwise) why one would not include a picture of the inventor in his own invention. Please advise. ] (]) 17:20, 22 January 2016 (UTC) | |||
*{{Ping|66.161.120.11}} For ] ... the images of the shows' title cards fail ] since they do not illustrate any ''usage'' of a laugh track whatsoever, and the image of Charles Douglass fails ] since the article is not ] and it doesn't illustrate any usage of the laugh track itself that assists readers with understanding anything that cannot be replaced with a free alternative. ] (]) 17:28, 22 January 2016 (UTC) | |||

:{{Ping|Redrose64}} Considering that I already made the previous 5–7 edits on the template (I've already been tweaking it some, so might as well tweak it as much as possible), in templates, I try to avoid namespace shortcuts in case for some technical reason, the namespace shortcut either becomes disabled or stops working.

I think a disambiguation page will end up being unnecessary, to say nothing of the fact that the current situation of having a redirect ''and'' a disambiguation is piss-poor. If present trends continue, ] will be merged with ], meaning it will be a two-pronged disambiguation...and that's assuming there's any kind of consensus to disambiguate. Again, present trends favor just redirecting Donald Drumpf to Donald J Drumpf, or to Donald Trump (Last Week Tonight) if they are merged.

Hi, I'm the user that uploaded the emixustat file, now up for discussion.

In a nutshell, if it is not too unique, we probably have some sort of ] tag/template that can be used for it that I just don't know of; however, if this is eligible for copyright (which, it may be since you didn't create it yourself as shown in the file description,) it would need to meet all of the ].

Yeah, thanks! I see... Emixustat is emerging as a new wiki topic with references to it from other editors in two newer articles (see RPE65). I was sort of interested in this molecule a couple of years ago, but just picked up the topic again and thought I'd see it through this time. I have an "Emixustat hydrochloride" draft in my personal space, and was hoping to add an image. As a licensing novice, I checked out other molecules already on Misplaced Pages and found the rationale to be that chemical formula are not subject to copyright, and thus .gov models are not, either. But that's all I know, and I will definitely appreciate the wisdom of others in this case. I might even be able to produce an original image with software of my own...but if originality is an issue, too...then I really have problems.

{{tq|if anything, it should be the other way around}} - Why? The code is easier to read if we transclude the entire template. If you want to do it the other way around so that {{tl|ffd2a}} is a wrapper of {{tl|ffd2}}, the code of {{tl|ffd2a}} becomes a lot more complex since headers and stuff in {{tl|ffd2}} need to be removed by {{tl|ffd2a}}. Also, the code of {{tl|ffd2a}} currently seems to be better than the code of {{tl|ffd2}} (e.g. "safesubst" is used consistently so that the transclusion in the documentation looks correct). | |||

*{{Ping|Stefan2}} If that is the case, then the code in {{Tl|Ffd2a}} should be merged into {{Tl|Ffd2}} and then instead of creating a wrapper, completely converting {{Tl|Ffd2a}} into a redirect to {{Tl|Ffd2}}. For one, the base code really should be in the base title and not the title with a "used for all entries after the first" designation per other noticeboards' templates for consistency. But also, in the past, I made similar edits which I am suggesting with merging {{No redirect|Template:Rfd2m}} into {{Tl|Rfd2}}. (I did that a while back, so I'd have to review what I did before I could apply similar changes to {{Tl|Ffd2}} and {{Tl|Ffd2a}}.) ] (]) 01:22, 19 April 2016 (UTC) | |||
** {{tl|Ffd2a}} is used if the header doesn't match the file name. For mass nominations, it's usually a good idea to ensure that the header doesn't contain the name of any of the files as the bot closes the entire discussion if someone deletes the first file, even if the other files still need to be discussed. Therefore, {{tl|ffd2a}} will typically be used for all files in mass nominations (and it needs to stay that way unless the bot starts acting differently) as {{tl|ffd2}} is unusable. Unfortunately, {{tl|ffd2a}} always tells the admin to use the wrong deletion rationale. --] (]) 01:35, 19 April 2016 (UTC) | |||
***{{Ping|Stefan2}} See . This is essentially merging the edits of {{Tl|Rfd2}} into {{Tl|Ffd2}}. The <code>header</code> parameter allows the header to be customized, and <code>multi</code> allows the header to be completely hidden (even if <code>header</code> is present as a fail-safe of sorts.) ] (]) 02:30, 19 April 2016 (UTC) | |||
