Small formatting quibble[edit]

Small formatting quibble: can something be done to remove

Template: Split

Wikipedia: Template messages/All (and)

Wikipedia: Template messages/Disputes

off of the list of articles to be split? It's obvious that the software lists them because they do in fact all contain the "split" template, but on those three pages, the "split" template is only there for an example.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.88.233.11 (talk • contribs)

Unfortunetly that's a feature~~bug~~ of Mediawiki. You can't make an included template not add the page to any categories although that would be a nice thing to have. I assume there's a feature request for it in bugzilla... JesseW 1 July 2005 08:07 (UTC)

GFDL concern[edit]

Please take note of discussion at Wikipedia_talk:Summary_style#GFDL_concern.--Doug.^{(talk • contribs)} 13:57, 17 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Making a start. . .[edit]

May - June 2008: started with about 820 articles and now down to 792. It's gonna be a long haul!! -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 01:21, 4 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Progress templates[edit]

Once a date parameter is placed on the {{split}} templates it would be good to get a progress template. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 07:55, 8 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Merge[edit]

Instead of merging this cat with Category:All articles to be split that cat should be merged with this one and then deleted. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 22:10, 12 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Down to double figures[edit]

Well done mate. Arbitrarily0 ^(talk) 02:58, 19 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Backlog tag[edit]

Since the only articles in this category are either problematic or new, I believe the backlog tag can be removed and have done so. Op47 (talk) 12:47, 16 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Links to talk pages[edit]

I am marking the talk pages as G8 exempt so that any notes are not lost immediately the categories become empty. The following are links so that the pages will not become total orphans.

I'll add

Category talk:Articles to be split from September 2013. I put a question there, which I hope someone can answer. Snowsuit Wearer (talk|contribs) 20:27, 26 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Maintainace category[edit]

This is a maintenance category. It is preferable that template for this type of action appear on the talk pages, because it is talk pages that are designed for discussing editor actions not article pages. -- PBS (talk) 16:21, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
