== Moved – merger complete ==

{{moved from|Template talk:Module rating#Merge complete}}

Hi all, merger of [[Template:Template rating]] and [[Template:Module rating]] is {{done|complete}} '''at [[Template:Template rating/sandbox]]'''.

See [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template%3ATemplate_rating%2Fsandbox&diff=1308960053&oldid=1308952648 the diff of the merger]. See [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template%3ATemplate_rating%2Fsandbox&diff=1308962475&oldid=1308960053 the diff of the improvements] I made to the text to be a little clearer and make the error text friendlier.

I did check all use-cases, however I'd appreciate if someone could take another look. If you're happy, could someone merge the changes into [[Template:Template rating]] as I don't have the template editor right?

::It appears that the /sandbox adds some new parameters (e.g. {{para|2}} and {{para|3}}) that are not in the existing template. If so, those new parameters should be tested on the /testcases page, as I have [[User_talk:Waddie96#Please_edit_the_template_sandbox_and_the_testcases_page_before_filing_edit_requests|asked you to do multiple times]]. – [[User:Jonesey95|Jonesey95]] ([[User talk:Jonesey95|talk]]) 20:03, 2 September 2025 (UTC)
:::Hi. The parameters actually come from {{tl|Module rating}}. And I tested them on the /doc page using {{tl|\sandbox}} and live pages using the “Preview page with this template” feature on all use-cases. The doc page on the module version is actually incorrect, it appears it doesn’t have as detailed implementation of the {{tl|pp}} template as it describes in the docs, it basically is a ‘double tunnel’ actually bad template usage, that runs the module eventually for page protection and passes the parameter for protection level. Unless the module truly can get the 2nd and 3rd unnamed parameter ‘passed through’ another template (ie {{tl|pp}}) ‘to it’. But I didn’t find a use case that applied all three protection parameters… but must admit I didn’t look hard. It’s actually on my todo list I see. Right at the top.

== Protected rating gone ==

FYI {{u|waddie96}} your recent changes to {{tl|Template rating}} removed support for {{para|1|protected}}. For an example see [[Module:Check for deprecated parameters]] where an error message is being displayed. —'''[[User:Zackmann08|Zackmann]]''' ([[User_talk:Zackmann08|Talk to me]]/[[Special:Contributions/Zackmann08|What I been doing]]) 07:58, 9 September 2025 (UTC)

:I did search for this with a temp tracking category but clearly didn't wait long enough for it to populate. Lemme add parameters for it to show nothing instead of the error, can't we just give those templates/modules ratings?

:::::Hmmm @[[User:Zackmann08|Zackmann08]]: the unknown para is populated by [[Module:Check for unknown parameters]] and also if {{para|1}} doesn't match any, but it's quite a lot, 192. Now some are there because they do not contain any parameters. I can add protection back whereby it shows the notice it showed before or it just shows [[Tm:Template rating/protected]]?

::::::Sadly I’m no help when it comes to lint errors. I don’t understand them. Just not something I’ve ever taken the time to learn. Sorry. My advise would be to change the switch statements so that ''protected'' is treated just like ''release''. After all, if it is protected, it is because it is widely used. Otherwise you need to display a different message for protected. Something like “this module is protected but may not be ready for release. Please specify a better rating. Regardless make sure you update the documentation because it currently shows ''protected'' as still being a valid value. —'''[[User:Zackmann08|Zackmann]]''' ([[User_talk:Zackmann08|Talk to me]]/[[Special:Contributions/Zackmann08|What I been doing]]) 08:58, 9 September 2025 (UTC)

== [[:Category:Wikipedia pages with incorrect protection templates]] ==

{{ping|Waddie96}} The recent changes have caused a bunch of <code>/doc</code> pages and their transcluding page (e.g. [[Module:Excerpt/config/sandbox]]) to start emitting this tracking category. Not an urgent issue so the change doesn't need hard reverting, but this should preferably be fixed. [[User:Aidan9382|Aidan9382]] ([[User talk:Aidan9382|talk]]) 09:29, 11 September 2025 (UTC)

{{edit template-protected|Template:Template rating|answered=yes}}
Please implement my changes in the [[Template:Template rating/sandbox|sandbox]].

These changes unify the rating experience for templates and modules. It also allows for proper categorization of deprecated templates and modules (as well as templates for general use, which previously the category was soft deleted per CfD, but actually would be helpful for certain kinds of more complicated technical templates).

== Invalid rating value and nocat but still categorized ==

The documentation page is not showing an example where an invalid rating is given. When I add one (in preview) but also set {{para|nocat|true}}, the documentation page then gets added to [[:Category:Pages using template rating template with unknown parameters]], ignoring {{para|nocat|true}}. The template is not checking the {{para|nocat}} in the default value of the switch. I notice the testcases also are getting put into the category even though nocat=true is being used. Is this the intended behavior? If so, the documentation needs to be updated to reflect that. [[User:RedWolf|RedWolf]] ([[User talk:RedWolf|talk]]) 00:16, 1 January 2026 (UTC)
:The editor who made all of these changes without adequate testing is gone, but not before they made a big mess of many pages, including the template in question. I have edited the testcases page a bit and modified the template to output a new error category that does not misuse the unknown parameters category. More work may be needed. – [[User:Jonesey95|Jonesey95]] ([[User talk:Jonesey95|talk]]) 05:00, 25 June 2026 (UTC)
