Template:Archives/testcases
 | This is the template test cases page for the sandbox of Template:Archives. to update the examples. If there are many examples of a complicated template, later ones may break due to limits in MediaWiki; see the HTML comment "NewPP limit report" in the rendered page. You can also use Special:ExpandTemplates to examine the results of template uses. You can test how this page looks in the different skins and parsers with these links: |
The testcases have been split into 2 pages due to the two main types of display option (Banner / Box) and to have them all on a single page would give that page long load times.
Test cases_1 – Box style
[edit]Template:Archives/testcases/box
Test cases_2 – Banner style
[edit]Template:Archives/testcases/banner
Test cases 3 – remote testing via ExpandTemplates
[edit]Talk pages having a MiszaBot/config
[edit]We can code tests in ExpandTemplates, and link them url-encoded here, which will provide a testcase embedded in the link and executed at ExpandTemplates, not here. Each one of these tests shows four results, namely a simple call to the live template or the sandbox for the given Talk page, and another pair that calls them with |banner=yes:
Test Template:Archives in the context of the following Talk pages which use MiszaBot/config:
- Test 1: Talk:France – expect 90 days, minthreads = 4
- Test 2: Talk:Muammar Gaddafi – expect 90 days, minthreads = 4
- Test 3: Talk:Physics – expect 60 days
- Test 4: Talk:Noam Chomsky – expect 45 days, minthreads = 3
- Test 5: Talk:Mustang – expect 61 days
- Test 6: User talk:Aaron Liu/sandbox – expect 418d; second config is ignored as Sigmabot ignores it
Talk pages having a Cluebot config
[edit]Errors in this bunch have to do somehow with the urlencoding; by pasting these tests into Special:ExpandTemplates they work fine. Instead, paste the following into ExpandTemplates:
===Live===
Live: {{Archives}}
{{clear}}
===Sandbox===
{{Archives/sandbox}}
{{clear}}
===Live +banner ===
{{Archives|banner=yes}}
{{clear}}
===Sandbox +banner ===
{{Archives/sandbox|banner=yes}}
and choose one of the Talk page names below for the Context title to generate a pair of results per TP name; compare the two to see the effects of the sandbox changes compared to live.
- Test 1: Talk:The Exorcist – expect 30 days/720hours, minthreads = 4
- Test 2: Talk:List of colors – expect 7.5d/183h, minthreads = 4
- Test 3: Talk:Toronto – expect 60d/1440h
- Test 4: Talk:Switzerland – expect 120d/2880h, minthreads = 5
- Test 5: Talk:Macedonia – expect 90d/2160 minthreads = 4
- Test 6: User talk:Aaron Liu – expect:
- test 6a: 30d/720h minthreads = 2
- test 6b: ~95d/2278h
