Hey man, saw your recent edits on Portal: Still Alive. First, never add {{tl2|Software page [[User:Equalizer5118|Equalizer5118]] ([[User talk:(Equalizer5118)|talk]]) 18:22, 6 Nov 2023 to a page unless it has a [[:File:Software Cover - Counter-Strike Source.jpg|Software cover]] and screenshots. Second, spamming [[Special:RecentChanges]] with edits is not cool. Next to the Save Changes button is a Show Preview button which will show the page with the edits you make, without actually publishing it. Not only does constantly saving changes make it incredibly annoying for anyone else wanting to edit the page, but it is also incredibly slow and inefficient, so please use the show preview button. | |||
Also, its a bad practice to copy paste a software page template from one page to another in progress page, as you get artifacts like [https://developer.valvesoftware.com/w/index.php?title=Portal:_Still_Alive&diff=prev&oldid=354475 this] | Also, its a bad practice to copy paste a software page template from one page to another in progress page, as you get artifacts like [https://developer.valvesoftware.com/w/index.php?title=Portal:_Still_Alive&diff=prev&oldid=354475 this] | ||

Hey man, saw your recent edits on Portal: Still Alive. First, never add {{[[:Template:{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]]}}
Do not do that again
Usually when doing experimental changes to a template, just make them to the actual template and revert them if they break something. Do NOT create an entire new template for small changes like that! If we did that normally, then this entire wiki would be filled with a thousand more useless candidates for deletion.
(using Template:Message) Equalizer, I see what you are writing here, I would also write to him about this. But it seems that no changes are coming; the endless bout of garbage edits is still repeated.
