Distracting message on Wikipedia:Cascade-protected items

[edit]

@Kephir and Mr. Stradivarius: Is it possible to alter the module so that it doesn't throw up a "Warning: this page (Wikipedia:Cascade-protected items) is not cascade-protected." message while on Wikipedia:Cascade-protected items? The actual content that is cascade protected is on Wikipedia:Cascade-protected items/content, which is transcluded on the previous page so that that page can be edited freely.

@Jo-Jo Eumerus: Done in this edit. Everything appears to be working, but let me know if you notice anything strange. — Mr. Stradivarius ♪ talk ♪ 03:42, 17 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Expensive function count

[edit]

FYI, it looks like the expensive function count thing described in the comment as an "outrageous abuse of Scribunto API" was fixed in December 2014 with gerrit:178698. Anomie 13:02, 26 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Scribunto API and cascading protection

[edit]

@Mr. Stradivarius: According to 770715327, your (most recent) 2017 edit:

	-- XXX: there seems to be no way to check for cascading protection using a
	-- Scribunto API, so we have to use frame:preprocess with the
	-- CASCADINGSOURCES parser function.

This is not true and was not true in 2017 when the edit was made. In fact, mw.title objects have had a field named cascadingProtection since gerrit:132730 by Jackmcbarn (talk · contribs) was merged on 2014-08-13 and released as part of MediaWiki 1.24 on 2014-11-26, only a few months after {{CASCADINGSOURCES}} was introduced in MediaWiki 1.23 on 2014-06-05.

Sadly, I only just recently added this to the English documentation: mw:Special:Diff/3921942/prev.

Also I believe "extaneous" is misspelled earlier in the same comment block. —Uzume (talk) 07:00, 22 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Uzume: If it wasn't in the Scribunto documentation, then that's probably why I missed it. If you want to switch to the Scribunto API (or just to fix the comment), you're more than welcome to submit an edit request. Best — Mr. Stradivarius ♪ talk ♪ 10:10, 22 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
