Merge discussion for National Institute of Technology, Srinagar

An article that you have been involved in editing, National Institute of Technology, Srinagar, has been proposed for a merge with another article. If you are interested in the merge discussion, please participate by going here, and adding your comments on the discussion page. Thank you. Muhandes (talk) 08:14, 7 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah sure, I'm all for the merging, you have my vote for the same. The article would be more informative in that way and neither is it too long already to oppose this merging. So for the present the merging is totally advisable. Just one thing though Muhandes, could you tell me how do you merge articles and who all can do it. Rockin291 (talk) 03:12, 9 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The place to make the !vote is here. Add the line

* '''Support''' <your reason> ~~~~

to do that. There is a process for merging, see Help:Merge, and anyone can do it after discussion. In this case I will take care of it once the required two weeks of notice have passed. --Muhandes (talk) 07:05, 9 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Support The article would be more informative, and for now it's length(after merging) is not a matter of concern. Rockin291 (talk) 23:05, 11 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

And again, the place to make the !vote is in the discussion page.--Muhandes (talk) 20:11, 13 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Wikilinks

Thank you for your advice. given that I have been an editor here for over five years, an admin for over four, and to date have never transwikied anything, why did you think I needed it?--Anthony Bradbury^"talk" 17:03, 16 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I was not intending to impress you, although thank you for your comment. I am wholly in favour of adding transwiki links when an article is transwikified; but as I do not recollect ever doing so I am still unclear as to why you have selected me to have this conversation with?--Anthony Bradbury^"talk" 12:24, 18 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Template:F1 Drivers Standings

Hi Rockin291. You may have noticed that I have reverted your edits to {{F1 Drivers Standings}} - if we use {{F1R2021}} in that template, it breaks the 2021 Formula One World Championship article due to exceeding the template transclusion limit. I've added a note to that effect into the template. Regards. DH85868993 (talk) 04:55, 19 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@DH85868993: good catch and thanks for the fix. It is unfortunate though that we cannot re-use the template in this way, is there any way to increase the template transclusion limit? Amit Dash (talk) 05:46, 19 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it is unfortunate that we can't use {{F1R2021}} in {{F1 Drivers Standings}} (that was one of the main drivers behind creating {{F1R2020}} last year in the first place). Someone (I can't remember who) is working on converting {{F1R2021}} to a Lua module, which should avoid the problem. There's a discussion somewhere about all this, but I haven't been able to find it (it's been archived). DH85868993 (talk) 06:04, 19 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Okay understood, thanks for the context. Amit Dash (talk) 06:16, 19 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
