message: So how did we end up with eight templates saying the exact thing?  It's misleading to say that any one of them redirects to another when this is the case, and couldn't we establish redirects without causing recursion issues?  --Stratadrake 22:27, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Don't know about then, now this may be it.  There are about 20 redirects to this template currently (r alt caps; R from alternate caps; R from alternative caps; etc.) -MornMore (talk) 10:01, 20 November 2009 (UTC)

message: Hello! As you can tell if you browse through , they've been thinned out into a bunch of subcategories for a while. In keeping with this, whenever someone can get around to it, I'd like for this template to be placed in the following categories:
 (with a sort key like "Capitalisation") and  (with no sort key whatsoever). It should also be removed from . Thanks! \sim Lenoxus " * " 02:05, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

message: Maybe someday, but for now Wikipedia remains a work in progress, and we still have many pages under non-standard titles, including cases where the title in accordance with the Wikipedia naming conventions for capitalisation unfortunately redirects to an incorrect title.  Until we believe that we have completed the task of fixing these, I would prefer that the template text not give undue legitimacy to the status quo.

message: I've compressed the code a lot, at .  Compare it before and after.  Big enough change it's worth sandboxing this and seeing if anyone detects an error in it.  Seems to work fine for me.  — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼  05:28, 24 August 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: The only "error" I detected was that there were two category links.  This was easily fixed by a parser function in the name= parameter.  Pretty impressive!  Things to consider might be that the sandbox code also subdues the text that follows the first sentence whenever of= or reason= is filled.  That text would still apply even if not subdued and, in my humble opinion, is needed.  I would also want to include a second unnamed parameter to coincide with the of= and reason= named parameters.  That would make this functionality work when this rcat is called by the  template by use of its n#= parameter.  The only other thing I can think of right now is that  was designed to be used twice in each rcat, and while this interesting method of using only the one instance of the template with "embeds" strategically inserted where needed may be functional, it might be something we would want to consider very carefully before implementation. – Paine Ellsworth CLIMAX! 08:50, 15 October 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Code cleanup 

message: The code has been repaired – there were two primary problems and one secondary one:
* The code left a superfluous "(space)to(space)" at the end of the first sentence when either the "of=" or "reason=" parameter was used,
* the code subdued critical text when either the "of=" or "reason=" parameter was used, and the secondary issue that
* this "of/reason" functionality was not able to be deployed when this rcat used the  template to tag redirects.
All fixed. – Paine Ellsworth CLIMAX! 06:24, 15 October 2014 (UTC)

replies: text: Forgive me for my lack of clarity – this describes what I did to the live template.  The only thing I fixed in the sandbox was the double link to the category.  It all works fine except for the considerations I noted above. – Paine  18:35, 15 October 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Code fix 

message: See specifically  and previous discussion at User talk:Senator2029#PubMed Identifier redirect. Senator2029's response suggests that any relevant template documentation needs to make our decision explicit.
(I disagree somewhat with the redirect being unprintworthy, because all the links coming from  would make the impression that we don't care about cleaning up unprintworthy redirects. Also, I don't see where the capitalized "Identifier" is declared officially incorrect; on the other hand, this section of PubMed's official FAQ does capitalize "Identifier." But I digress.) --SoledadKabocha (talk) 18:36, 19 November 2014 (UTC)
