Template talk:Infobox UK disused station

message: Could we have some documentation on the parameters to the template? Keith D 21:41, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I've added some documentation to the article via Template:Infobox UK disused station/doc based on the documentation of Template:Infobox UK station/doc, but altered to fit this template. Could probably use some work but hope its adaquate for the time being! --Dreamer84 22:22, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks. Makes it much easier than looking through the code to find the parameters. Keith D 08:36, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

message: In a recent edit to this template, the documented  parameter has been replaced by an undocumented  parameter. Whether intentional or not, this needs to be addressed to ensure backwards compatibility with the previous version. --Dr Greg (talk) 17:20, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  "original" parameter has been lost 

message: I have changed the 'Local Authority' heading in the infobox back to the original 'Area' title, which is what it always had been before the recent changes. My reasons for not having LA originally is because for most of these disused stations the current local authorities did not exist at the time of closure. I realise 'Area' may be a bit vague, but I was trying to avoid a word that is relevant only to a specific period of time. Anyone have any better suggestions? --- Dreamer 84 16:53, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Date display

message: It would be useful if an entry could be added to the template allowing for usage figures to be entered (where available), e.g. for  which closed in 2005. Lamberhurst (talk) 22:44, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

message: Hi all; thanks for this template which I've copied to wiki-cy (Welsh language) and used here. However, it's calling a module, using Luna, but doesn't tell me which one to copy. Why has templates become much more complicated for smaller wikis? Hypothetical question! Thanks for any help. Llywelyn2000 (talk) 18:34, 8 October 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Wicipedia Cymraeg does have portals, their pages are in Porth: namespace; but this is not the problem here. Judging by the red error message at :cy:Nodyn:Infobox UK disused station, the missing Lua file is :cy:Modiwl:Portal/images/r - there are already several in that group, see this list. It might simply be a case of making a straight copy from :en:Module:Portal/images/r. --Redrose64 (talk) 19:09, 8 October 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Many thanks. Refreshed the page this morning, and your suggestion was not there; it is now! Many thanks. I've copied the suggested Module:Portal/images/r from en to cy, with no luck. IMHO the copying over of ALL templates could be done automatically, if a language opts for that. Some templates I've done have had over a hundred subtemplates, which means wasting a whole afternoon, just for one template. Things (with Lua) are getting more complicated, and not less. There, I feel better now; nice clear chest! Coming back to this one. The same error is still there (Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module `Module:Portal/images/r' not found.) even though the module has been copied. Thanks RedRose, once again!

replies: text: I did a WP:PURGE of :cy:Gorsaf Reilffordd Rhuthun and it's now complaining about Module:Portal/images/aliases. That would of course be copied to :cy:Modiwl:Portal/images/aliases. --Redrose64 (talk) 10:22, 9 October 2014 (UTC)
replies: text:   The template being called was cy:Nodyn:Portal-inline which invokes the Lua module cy:Modiwl:Portal. Just in case the internal Lua calls don't play nicely with namespace aliases (although they should), I replaced occurrences of 'Module:' with 'Moodiwl'. It seems to also need cy:Modiwl:Portal/images/aliases and cy:Modiwl:Portal/images which I've created from the corresponding en-wp modules. I checked cy:Gorsaf Reilffordd Rhuthun which seems ok now, but perhaps someone could check more pages on cy-wp? P.S. the cy:Nodyn:Infobox UK disused station still shows an error, but that's because the code doesn't catch the error when it's invoked on a page in the template namespace. That could be fixed later as it's merely cosmetic - as long as the infobox works in mainspace. Cheers --RexxS (talk) 12:52, 9 October 2014 (UTC)

thread_title:  Lua calling 

message: Surprised that this doesn't support embedded infobox sections – e.g. a designation section – as permitted by :Template:Infobox building. This would be useful for the many stations that are Listed Buildings (for example Bakewell railway station). Dave.Dunford (talk) 13:37, 26 March 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: The way that  is wrong in several respects. If you look at the documentation for  you'll see that the  parameter is not mentioned at all; if you had WP:PREVIEWed your edit before saving it, you would have seen the error message Warning: Page using Template:Infobox UK disused station with unknown parameter "embedded" (this message is shown only in preview). Also, if you look at the documentation for , you also misused that template as well. It is far easier to stick with documented parameters, and for Infobox UK disused station there are six that are designed specifically for the information that you are attempting to squeeze in by other means. . --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 23:21, 26 March 2019 (UTC)
replies: text:  Thanks for that. I overlooked the listing parameters (I searched the template page for "grade" and "listed" but not "listing"). I saw the preview error when I attempted to use an embedded template but left it in place while I sought advice here. Thanks for putting me straight. Dave.Dunford (talk) 12:49, 27 March 2019 (UTC)
