WTF
I peeked at the template and noticed multiple duplications of this code: {{#ifeq: {{{game|{{#titleparts: {{FULLPAGENAME}}|1}}}}}|{{#titleparts: {{FULLPAGENAME}}|1}}|{{#titleparts: {{FULLPAGENAME}}|1}}|{{{game}}}}}
The same with better readability
{{#ifeq: {{{game|{{#titleparts: {{FULLPAGENAME}}|1}}}}}
| {{#titleparts: {{FULLPAGENAME}}|1}}
| {{#titleparts: {{FULLPAGENAME}}|1}}
| {{{game}}}
}}
So, it checks if the value of game is equal to the first part of fullpagename.
- if yes, it prints the first part of fullpagename
- if no, it prints the value of game
It prints a string equal to game in any case. I'm going to poke around the template a bit to get a better idea what's going on. - Loliturma (talk) 09:11, 24 March 2014 (UTC)
- The reason for that is to enable the template to guess it's game in a subpaged structure, so the game= parameter is no longer needed when using subpages - without breaking compatibility with the "classic" page structure of older games. The target is to reduce the number of parameters to the template and make the template more "smart". --hmoeller [ Talk - Contribs ] 10:33, 24 March 2014 (UTC)
- Ahhh, now I get the idea. However, the code did not do that: It doesn't work if the game parameter is unspecified. I guess the equal / not equal options were accidentally set backwards? Anyways, it could be simplified to
{{#if:{{{game|}}}|{{{game}}}|{{#titleparts:{{FULLPAGENAME}}|1}}}}
