Ping vedr. User:Egelund
[rediger kildetekst]Hej Palnatoke. Jeg har lagt en besked på Brugerdiskussion:Egelund. Det lader til at personen selv har forfattet WP siden om ham selv. Jeg ville have ping'et dig med Skabelon:Reply eller @Palnatoke:, men ingen af disse skabeloner fungerer tilsyneladende på den danske Wikipedia! Så som bonus spørgsmål vil jeg høre om du ved hvorfor de ikke gør det? Og findes der andre skabeloner der så kan bruges i stedet for?
PS. Det vil nok være en fordel at vælge "Redigér wikikode" for at se hvad det er for en kode jeg skriver om.
RhinoMind (diskussion) 11. aug 2014, 18:11 (CEST)
- Svaret på dit bonusspørgsmål er det ganske simple, at der ikke er oprettet nogen dansk udgave af en:Template:Reply to. Skabeloner oprettes normalt lokalt på de enkelte sprog, men det er bare ikke altid det sker. Det kan f.eks. være fordi, folk ikke har hørt om den, ikke kan se behovet for den eller ikke forstår hvad den skal bruges til. --Dannebrog Spy (diskussion) 11. aug 2014, 18:45 (CEST)
- Det kan meget vel være at Egelund (diskussion • bidrag • e-mail) er Niels Egelund. Vedkommendes redigeringer ligger imidlertid fire og seks år tilbage, så der er en væsentlig sandsynlighed for at det alene har akademisk interesse at afklare sammenhængen. --Palnatoke (diskussion) 11. aug 2014, 19:32 (CEST)
- Tak for det begge to. Pal: Ja, jeg burde nok have bemærket årstallene, men nu er der da en besked at forholde sig til på brugerens side i det mindste. Niels Egelund er et "hot" navn lige for tiden i forbindelse med Folkeskolereformen, så det kunne meget vel være der sker noget på siden i nærmeste fremtid. Jeg har sat den på min overvågningsliste.
