User talk:Aks: Difference between revisions

 

When you use the mylang template, the text you use to identify the language automatically puts your username as part of a MediaWiki category. Unfortunately, MediaWiki doesn't have a mechanism for aliasing categories, so I can't tell it "hey, PL/I and PL/1 are the same thing". As a result, if you have PL/I in the mylang template, you wind up in [[:Category:PL/I User]], whereas if you have PL/1 in the mylang template, you wind up in [[:Category:PL/1 User]]. It's a rather annoying software limitation that won't be fixed until someone has time to write a patch. I understand your frustrations. --[[User:Short Circuit|Michael Mol]] 20:19, 17 February 2010 (UTC)
