Improving templates
Since you brought it up here, I'll go ahead and share what I personally think is needed in the template space and what I haven't either had the time or the motivation to complete yet.

Firstly, getting a grasp on it is difficult because the automated Special Pages are filled with what is almost spam and stuff that just isn't helpful. The only coherent way to work with them I believe is categories. This is the starting area. There's three problems in the template space; incomplete imports (for example the user help templates with features in documentation or cases where there are module errors because those were incomplete), messy documentation which hasn't been fully adapted to Miraheze (we can look at examples if you/me/others find them) and incomplete categorization (templates just floating around in orphaned categories or none at all or done inconsistently, again usually because of messy import). It's all busywork, depends how much you'd be interested in. I think where possible templates should be simplified because we really don't need a lot of module gunk. Care should be taken not to change too aggressively to cause further mess and collateral but if you're interested in this we could collaborate. --Raidarr (talk) 17:20, 8 March 2023 (UTC)


 * Thanks, I am glad to help! Though, I am not exactly sure where to start, so it would be helpful if you could start out by giving me select templates to improve before doing a full clean up. :) Bbbtest (talk | contribs | e-mail | please vote on my adminship ) 17:32, 8 March 2023 (UTC)

Please do NOT edit war / cite offsite propaganda for users tidying noticeboards
Hello Bbbtest. You might like my header, because saying NOT in all caps is really cool. Your edit was reinstated because you were removing content with your summary implying you had the ability to do so purely because you made it. Because of this I reinstated it. Nothing had been revision deleted yet, at least not as far as I noticed.

In addition, please do not cite the "There's a reason you don't know" essay. That essay, apart from being nothing more than one person's opinion, is also completely horrid and used mainly for justifying fake actions. It was created relatively recently by a very controversial user and has been used as essentially the anti-ADMINACCT. In addition, I am someone who personally has issue with it, as someone who has been the victim of fishing checks, attacks/stalking by criminals using such permissions, and general non-trustworthiness of users with checkusers/oversighters. It is a bullshit essay and I don't want to hear about it ever. Especially not condescendingly "telling me to read it". I'm already familiar with it....unfortunately.
