ઢાંચો:REVISIONUSER2/doc

The magic word {{REVISIONUSER}} gives poor formatting and fails in wikilinks if the username starts with an asterisk '*' or semicolon ';'. This template is a workaround. It is not needed if phab:T28781 is fixed.

Usage

Use {{REVISIONUSER2}} instead of {{REVISIONUSER}}

Use {{REVISIONUSER2|pagename}} instead of {{REVISIONUSER:pagename}}

Note the pipe instead of a colon.

Example

Suppose you want to link the last editor of User:*Treker/sandbox.

[[User:{{REVISIONUSER2|User:*Treker/sandbox}}]] produces:

[[User:]]

For comparison, [[User:{{REVISIONUSER:User:*Treker/sandbox}}]] produces:

[[User:]]

The latter fails if the last editor is *Treker and phab:T28781 is unfixed.

Usernames starting with * [૧] or ; [૨] are relatively rare. {{REVISIONUSER}} may work correctly if it is not in the output but only used in a test during processing.

Alternative approach

Wrapping {{REVISIONUSER}} with {{#invoke:String2|nowiki|...}} so it looks like {{#invoke:String2|nowiki|{{REVISIONUSER}}}} also works.
