Articles clean-up reports (New forum)

No, I've already edited the page. I'm just asking you to review the changes and confirm if they're correct, since you two were the most recent contributors. Please refer to the link I sent.

I don't believe either of you caused the issues.
nope i definetly caused the issues, but everything seems fine to me ill have to ask castorice though. theres one reference thats still broken but thats my fault
 
@Demon_Lord18

There is an error with the ":24" reference identifier. Please correct it when you're available.

Thank you in advance.
Thank you for letting me know. I was sleepy and hadn’t noticed it.

I corrected and added some more scans and references to the page. There are still some missing, but I will add them as soon as I get back from work, if that’s not inconvenient.
 
I tried, and I'm sorry, that seems impossible for your specific request. There is also no need to make a template as there is a common magic word {{DISPLAYTITLE:}} that serves the same purpose. And this is entirely different from a template; the magic word would be used like this for example: {{DISPLAYTITLE:replacementtitle}}, as opposed to a template that just uses separators.

However, the "|" symbol, or commonly referred to as a pipe character, is often used as a separator for templates, parser functions, and magic words, which is present in the name ●●|●●●●●|●●|●. This is also why I just recently learned that the symbol is considered a "forbidden character" when it comes to naming conventions. A concrete example of this is the page named "MARRS" for something that is actually stylized as "M|A|R|R|S" from Wikipedia.
Regarding this old request, I discovered you can include the "|" symbol in the {{DISPLAYTITLE:}} magic word by substituting it with the {{!}} magic word, which causes the markup to not interpret it as a separator for that instance. As such, I have adjusted the ●●|●●●●●|●●|● page name accordingly.
I'm making this post to clarify a few things about this long-resolved situation. For your information, Wikipedia wouldn't allow a DISPLAYTITLE containing the "|" character even with the {{!}} workaround, as it enforces a server-side setting called $wgRestrictDisplayTitle that causes DISPLAYTITLE magic words to only work if the title that they're given resolves to the same canonical pagename as the actual page title. As "|" can't be in a page name, it can't be in a DISPLAYTITLE there either, even if you escape it using the {{!}} magic word. As a formal encyclopedia, Wikipedia enables that setting to keep with the wiki convention that a page's title is its name, and thus can be used for linking to it; however, Fandom, which is somewhat less formal, has that server setting disabled, meaning that the {{!}} workaround works on Fandom wikis, as seen here.

Okay, that's interesting. It's interesting to know there's a small difference between FANDOM and Wikipedia settings in MediaWiki. I'm not sure how often I'll need this information again though, since Wikipedia is outside our current scope and there are little to no notable characters that use the separator character in their name. I don't think there will ever be one aside from ●●|●●●●●|●●|●. And since, as you have stated, that we can use title displays that are actually different from the page name, unlike Wikipedia's.

Yae's page reference were made by garrixian (Now banned/retired) i didnt touch previous references
Anyways should be fixed as of rn (Idk how but another reference has broken when it wasn't)
Yes, you didn't touch the existing references, I pinged you for the references caused by the new ones.

As for the currently existing reference. It's the ":0" that you inserted here:

And then a different ":0" reference content that you applied here:

These two are causing a conflict.
 
Kinda messed up some of the reference format here


*'''Improved [[Forcefield Creation|Barrier Creation]]''' ([imgur.com/rADWytH Can shrink the volume his Domain's barrier encompasses to the point that it's smaller than a basketball].<ref name="JJK228 /"> It would be normally impossible for a barrier user to imagine shutting themselves and their opponent in a barrier with an exterior looks to small to fit a person but Gojo's experience of being sealed inside the Prison Realm, an object small enough to fit on someone's palm, [imgur.com/EhmwO1C allowed him to bypass this limitation].<ref name="JJK228 /"> The result is a Domain that is extremely durable to attacks on its outer shell)

Reiner fixed this.

 
So, I heard that this is the right place to fix some problem on a page? Maybe like references problem too? Since that's why i'm here anyway.

I just added references to the names and titles on this page, also added some Note on a specifict ability, but after that, the references kinda messed up after I added the references. So, if I did something wrong, I'm sorry. I didn't mean any harm towards the page, I just want to add some references and a Note.

Since I don't know how to fix the references besides just removing them, I wonder if I can ask help to the staff to fix it. Or, they can tell me how to fix it by my own then I can learn from them. Like I think I know the problem, I just have to change the ref's number. But, I don't know which number I should change to. So, that's the problem on me.
