Template:ttbc-top

 * note this is a redirect to Template:checktrans-top as people have used both names

I thought this was nice at first, but seems to be causing things to fall through the cracks. Orphan and delete. --Connel MacKenzie 14:10, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Weak keep; before, the TTBC section was the only one visiable, so anon users would add new translations to that section exclusively. If we go back to that system, without fixing the problems with collapsible Translations boxes, then we are merely bringing that problem back.  I'd rather tsee some solution implemented that solves both problems, rather than just favoring one problem over another. --EncycloPetey 18:10, 11 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep. How exactly does it cause things to fall through the cracks? — [ ric ] opiaterein — 21:28, 14 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep (either/both names) with the L5 header and uncollapsed ttbc list, anyone who doesn't understand the collapsing will add to the ttbc section. There is another related problem in that some users think they should add new translations to the ttbc section, thinking they must be checked by someone else before going in the "real" section(s). For now at least, this does away with the extra L5 header we don't really need. Robert Ullmann 14:27, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

By the way, does Autoformat check that everything listed in these tables are marked with ? DAVilla 21:53, 20 February 2008 (UTC)


 * AutoFormat does not touch these at all. I generate User:Connel MacKenzie/checktrans with each XML dump and use JS to get the individual lines 'd.  The template  fucks up the list generation, while confounding the JS at the same time.  (Nevermind the fact that a couple "well meaning" contributors have completely destroyed my ability to keep up with that list, by adding completely bogus secondary meanings that fail RFV or RFD every time and deciding that the translations - that rightfully belong only to the original definitions - should be TTBC'd across their new bogus definitions.)  What started as an operose task when people complied (due to the inherent automation-resistant variance) has essentially become impossible.  This particular template is a confounding factor.  --Connel MacKenzie 07:08, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

This has been changed to use and, AF will convert ttbc-* to checktranss-*. AF also removes the L5 header if followed by {checktrans}. Robert Ullmann 12:20, 25 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Kept per consensus. Harmless redirect. --Jackofclubs 09:39, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
