thread_title: Template Current-section deprecated

message: Per the comments at WT:TC#Standardisation of template styling, I've made some tweaks to this template in the new sandbox for better consistency with other article message boxes. Just needs synced. Chris Cunningham (not at work) - talk 11:32, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: . I'm a bit confused about the purpose of the second unnamed parameter in this template. Can you explain please? Martinmsgj 15:36, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text:  From the look of the code, it look like like one can specify exactly which current event the template relates to. I didn't actually touch that part of the code, though. Chris Cunningham (not at work) - talk 15:49, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: But if it was specified, it would be right next to the word "event" without even a space! Doesn't make sense to me. Martinmsgj 15:57, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text:  Probably wasn't a well-thought-out as all that in the first place. Fancy lowering to semi-protection? Chris Cunningham (not at work) - talk 16:17, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: With <50 transclusions it's not really "high risk". I'd prefer if you made the request to  though. Martinmsgj 17:04, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I would give that <50 figure a grain of salt. The amount of current transclusions is going to fluctuate, and it depends on the current world events. It may be less than 50 now, but it could peek significantly if a whole lot of significant world events happen tomorrow. You could make the same sort of arguments with  too. Both, IMO, have been historically high-visible templates. Cheers. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 18:01, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm a bit frustraded to find out, I can't tweak the template I donated ;) to wikipedia originally. Semi-protection would be nice so I can fix the small mistakes time has merged into this template. Kirils (talk) 16:04, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Style tweaks 

message: Alright, just so no one freaks out over my edits.  I've changed the template to be more grammatically-precise with relation to the use of the colon (:).  Furthermore, as having an article name sometimes wraps it to two lines, I've made the "Information may change rapidly as the event progresses" text wrap go to a second line on its own, in small font, should the article text be included.  Hope no one minds. Mnmazur (talk) 23:02, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: The section above originally removed the small text and line breaks. I'd rather they weren't re-added without discussion. Chris Cunningham (not at work) - talk 09:58, 28 May 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Further tweaks 

message:  lead the template to read: "This person may be affected by the following current event: Petraeus sex scandal. Information in this person may change rapidly as the event progresses." The phrase "Information in this person" seems odd and I changed the template so that it comes out as "information about this person topic." Still reads a little odd, but technically is correct. In general, trouble seems to come with allowing any text (e.g., "person") in the second parameter. Hopefully, someone has a better fix. -- Uzma Gamal (talk) 14:07, 14 November 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: According to the documentation, an appropriate entry for the first parameter would be "section", so that the box would read "Information in this article may change", or "Information in this section may change". 117Avenue (talk) 03:33, 15 November 2012 (UTC)
thread_title: The second parameter (unnamed parameter)

message: I think it is possible that the word "may" could potentially confuse some non-native English speakers that scan the text fast, as may is also a month.
Wouldn't it be better if we used "might" or "could" instead? 193.92.123.5 (talk) 07:59, 30 July 2015 (UTC)
