Template talk:Europe topic

Template-protected edit request on 9 November 2022

Please fix the following.

For 2020 in Ireland, navbox {{Europe topic|2020 in}}

Reason: Ireland is not hilighted. For 2019, 2021, etc. it's correct.

Way beyond my skills, so thanks for helping. JoeNMLC (talk) 16:36, 9 November 2022 (UTC)

ADDITIONAL Year

For 2015 in Ireland, navbox {{Europe topic|2015 in}}

Reason: Ireland is not hilighted.

Also see several Red Links, so may need further updating. JoeNMLC (talk) 16:50, 9 November 2022 (UTC)

 Not done:. {{Europe topic}} is used on thousands of articles about various topics. It automatically makes links with systematic names. For Ireland the link says "the Republic of Ireland" by default. If this gives a red link or redirect then you can add the parameter |IE={{subst:PAGENAME}} on articles about Ireland to make a bold selflink to the actual title of the article.

In this case you can also try whether {{Year in Europe|2020}} gives a better result in general. That's what 2019 in Ireland and 2021 in Ireland does. PrimeHunter (talk) 18:03, 9 November 2022 (UTC)

 Done - Thanks. Yes that Year in Europe|yyyy navbox works correctly. I updated both 2020 and 2015 for Ireland. Regards, JoeNMLC (talk) 18:57, 9 November 2022 (UTC)

Reintroduce opt-in former countries

For context, Czechoslovakia, East Germany, Soviet Union and Yugoslavia were supported by the template in January and February 2016 (Special:Diff/798443716) according to this talk section: Template talk:Europe topic/Archive 4#Former states. I sometimes stumble upon Soviet Union and Yugoslavia-related "<topic> in <country>" articles randomly, through search results, never knowing they existed as they are unlinked from any navboxes. For example I was only able to find articles for Terrorism in Yugoslavia, Scouting in Yugoslavia, Telephone numbers in Yugoslavia and Swimming in Yugoslavia through special search for page titles containing "in Yugoslavia". Non-automated navboxes like Template:Postal history of Europe and Template:Tallest buildings and structures contain links to past countries when articles for them exist (obviously, only few will always exist, mostly for states that don't have a single successor, so there's little concern for overpopulating these navboxes). -Vipz (talk) 09:08, 17 November 2022 (UTC)

Hi, the links to Propaganda in Germany, Italy and United Kingdom are currently directed to disambiguation pages. I understand the reason for this is due to the different the content in the topic covering different eras in history. Is it possible to include the word 'disambiguation' in the link? I am asking this request because I try to clean up Wiki pages that have incorrect or vague disambiguation links and this template appears in the 'list of pages to edit'. Thank you!

I will deal with it by creating {{Propaganda in Europe}} with customized links for some countries. PrimeHunter (talk) 08:44, 26 November 2022 (UTC)

@ColRad85: I have created the template and added it to the articles. PrimeHunter (talk) 09:09, 26 November 2022 (UTC)

Change "List of mammals of the Republic of Ireland" to "List of mammals of Ireland" Heh0002 (talk) 22:58, 30 November 2022 (UTC)

 Not done: This is a generic template, so often redirects are needed for some articles. CMD (talk) 01:49, 1 December 2022 (UTC)

@Heh0002: List of mammals of the Republic of Ireland already redirects to List of mammals of Ireland. I have added |IE=List of mammals of Ireland to the call in that article to produce a bold selflink.[1] PrimeHunter (talk) 11:34, 1 December 2022 (UTC)
