Is the suffix really neccessary since {{autolang}}
ekzists?
(using Template:Message) It seems to be quite redundant now that page translations use / to be the subpage. --Amicdict (talk) 5:34, 1 Apr 2023 (UTC)
(using Template:Message) {{{suf}}} should be removed from all templates and replaced with {{Autolang}}
, but not now. Now such deletion can cause mixing of languages, which not everyone may like. Actually, this is not such a problem, but in some templates it's better to leave {{{suf}}} until {{Lang}}
is completely replaced by {{MultiPage}}
.

Parameter nocat=1 should prevent any categories
I want to use it in the See also sections and along the text. Lxm6 (talk) 11:35, 9 April 2023 (PDT)
The text available in all games can be misleading
(using Template:Message) See ai_network for example.

Add an option to suppress all cats
(using Template:Message) See weapon_ak47 for example. --Lxm6 (talk) 8:18, 8 Jul 2023 (UTC)
3 extra categories out of nowhere with Weapon ak47
(using Template:Message) I don't see them in my sandbox2, which is what I expect. --Lxm6 (talk) 0:55, 9 Jul 2023 (UTC)
(using Template:Message) I seems like BasicCSseriesWeapon is to blame this time.

New template name is terrible
(using Template:Message) "Format" is too generic a template name, when literally everything on a wiki consists of formatting. --SirYodaJedi (talk) 19:18, 16 Aug 2023 (UTC)
(using Template:Message) I'm somewhat inclined to agree, I think something along the lines of "engine element" would fit better. Any other ideas?

(using Template:Message) How about {{this is a}}. In my utopia, I'm thinking of readable wikitext such as {{this is a|convar}}
, {{this is a|point ent}}
and so forth. This would require parameters to be swapped (but maybe this can be done when this page is moved once again):
- {{{1}}} → {{{name|
{{PAGENAME}}
}}} - {{{type}}} → {{{1|{{{type}}}}}}

(using Template:Message) I like that idea. I also am thinking of maybe something like {{introtext}} or similar, as that is more accurate to what it is. Its the introtext for entity, shader, convar, etc. articles
--Equalizer5118 (talk) 16:09, 17 Aug 2023 (UTC)
(using Template:Message) If we went that route, we should probably do {{intro text}}
as 2 words, and {{introtext}}
as a redirect to the 2 word template
