Template talk:Archive box

Interaction with WantedPages

Because #ifexist puts its targets on WhatLinksHere, they will also appear on WantedPages. Case in point: The tier list archives, which are currently clogging the top part of WantedPages despite having no reason to be there. I'm looking for alternatives.

We can make everyone go back to the old archive storage system (which is used on my talk page). It's not as simple as the archive box, but as long as a user knows how to copy and paste, they'll be able to get it to work fine. Omega Tyrant 11:13, 12 September 2012 (EDT)

I don't think you'd even need copy-paste to just insert a number from 1 to 20 and get back a series of links to archives with those numbers. Seems to me it's a minor setback for a useful benefit. Toomai Glittershine The Pan-Galactic 23:55, 24 September 2012 (EDT)

So then, shall we implement this? Omega Tyrant 00:03, 25 September 2012 (EDT)

I'll sit on it a bit to see if any unforseen things pop up that might make it less of a good idea, but yeah. Toomai Glittershine The Bold 00:05, 25 September 2012 (EDT)
