message: I have added an error message and tracking category for invalid ISBNs. – Jonesey95 (talk) 04:03, 11 March 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: problem with that is, it also registers an error when the field is left blank, such as when the English release date/ISBN for a manga volume has yet to be announced; see List of Yamada-kun and the Seven Witches volumes for example.  Can you do something to fix that?  Because it looks really ugly as it is.  G S Palmer (talk • contribs) 21:39, 14 March 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: I noticed this also, and then I noticed that the template appears to automatically insert a dash for an empty ISBN. I adjusted the documentation accordingly. It currently reads: "If both LicensedRelDate and LicensedISBN are empty, the template will yield output appropriate for one-language view. Manually insert an em-dash (—) in LicensedRelDate (but leave LicensedISBN empty) to overcome this, if a two-language view is desired." I have fixed the article in question and a few like it. – Jonesey95 (talk) 21:45, 14 March 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Many thanks.  I didn't notice that someone had put dashes in the LicensedISBN parameters.  My bad.  :)  G S Palmer (talk • contribs) 13:19, 17 March 2016 (UTC)

message: There seems to be a change in format that is making the width and columns of the template compact to the text. Using the width parameter seems to fix the former, but the columns remain off-center. Here's how it looks without the width parameter:

replies: text: The table above looks fine to me. What are you expecting? Do you have examples in actual articles? – Jonesey95 (talk) 18:30, 21 August 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: From where I'm looking, the break in the columns are no longer split down the middle of the box; instead, the breaks depend on the length of the displayed text, and the box should automatically fit to 100% size without the width parameter filled. And when bullet points are used, the text in the left column overlaps with the bullets on the right, which are black in color. Examples: List of One Piece chapters (1–186), List of The Seven Deadly Sins chapters. User:SubZeroSilver (talk) 19:39, 21 August 2018 (UTC)

text: The header template was changed to remove the width parameter. I have reverted that change just now. That should fix it. – Jonesey95 (talk) 04:31, 22 August 2018 (UTC)

text: If you want the columns to have similar widths, just make them relatively the same instead of the entire thing 100%. There's no reason for it to extend across the entire screen. ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 04:35, 22 August 2018 (UTC)

text: This edit would also have to be reverted, as it's causing a conflict with bulleted chapters overlapping in the table. See List of The Seven Deadly Sins chapters.--十八 05:21, 22 August 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: You are correct. I have reverted that edit as well. Thanks for figuring it out. List of The Seven Deadly Sins chapters looks much better now. – Jonesey95 (talk) 08:04, 22 August 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Template change 

message: It's the age of responsive web design. So I think "ChapterListCol1" and "ChapterListCol2" should be abolished in favour of one "ChapterList" parameter, and instead, there should be a new parameter that defines minimum width of each column. Just look at how  does it with the "colwidth" parameter. JSH-alive/talk/cont/mail 14:12, 26 November 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Interesting idea. We could probably just use  to put chapters in a single multi-column list. It would be useful for someone to add TemplateData to this template in order to get the monthly report that shows which articles use each parameter. That way, we would know how much work it would take to merge the ChapterList parameters together. – Jonesey95 (talk) 17:22, 26 November 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: On a related issue, are you aware that the bullet format and spacing for "ChapterList" and "ChapterListCol2" is different? eg Master_Keaton#Volumes How hard would this be to fix? Ozflashman (talk) 02:47, 31 January 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: I think I have fixed the formatting of the bullets so that it is consistent across both columns. Does it look better to you? – Jonesey95 (talk) 07:43, 31 January 2019 (UTC)

since the template is not a sandbox and shows nothing. Furthermore, if this was left over from copying the /sandbox over, the notice can just be added to the /doc page, but it need not be hardcoded into the template itself. Thanks, --DannyS712 (talk) 03:22, 21 April 2019 (UTC)

thread_title:  Error in adding information 

message: Consensus: I have assumed a consensus due to WP:SILENT, I listed the proposal on this talk page, at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Anime and manga#Graphic novel list template update & Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Comics#Proposed change to Graphic novel list/header. With no response after over 7 days.
Change explanation: The changes here are
*1: add abbr tags to "No." so that if a cursor is over it displays "Number".
*2:That the </table> tag found in  be added to the  template as shown in these testcases using the sandbox I have made so that the list of  will go inside the  template making it simpler to add this template and its functionality would be more inline with .

thread_title:  Template error fix 

message: I'm working on Crimson Spell and the LicensedISBN parameter does not allow me to include more than one ISBN at the same time, whereas OriginalISBN allows me to do so using ISBN note.
On another note, is there a way to implement parameters like OriginalRelDate2, OriginalISBN2, LicensedRelDate2, etc. in the future? There are some series that have been reprinted under a different ISBN, such as volume 1 of Don't Be Cruel and The Cornered Mouse Dreams of Cheese, or have several different versions such as A Polar Bear in Love, Ao Haru Ride, etc. Moreover, just like in the issue mentioned above with Crimson Spell and Finder Series, there may be more than one English translation by different companies. lullabying (talk) 11:17, 15 December 2020 (UTC)

message: At Yo-kai Watch (manga) I found that the United States English ISBNs and release dates were already there. I wanted to add such dates for the Singapore English version, which has separate ISBNs and release dates. However the template seems to allow for only one English version to be listed.
