Moving of match results edit
Hi TheMightyPeanut! I don't think this was a good move by you. It kills the interwiki link to Afrikaans that I used to directly update results to. Any thoughts? --Aliwal2012 (talk) 16:22, 25 February 2017 (UTC)
- Hi @Aliwal2012:, what do you mean "it kills the interwiki link"? TheMightyPeanut (talk) 17:06, 25 February 2017 (UTC)
- Hi TheMightyPeanut! The original 2017 Super Rugby season is already interwiki linked to af:2017 Superrugbyseisoen and fr:Saison 2017 de Super Rugby, etc. Your follow-up exercise by splitting off List of 2017 Super Rugby matches makes it impossible now to navigate between these languages' articles, since you can not wikilink 2 different English pages to one foreign language page (eg. Afrikaans)! This creates unneccesary stress to any editor, needing to look up the source page elsewhere on en:wiki. --Aliwal2012 (talk) 17:19, 25 February 2017 (UTC)
- It's hardly impossible. Right at the top and right at the bottom of the article are links to the main page. The main article has become too big; last season, there were issues with including all the templates, etc. It's now similar to a page like the 2015 Rugby World Cup, which has a summarised version of results on the main page, and further details elsewhere.

- O gaats! Directly translated: "O shit!"
- I'm adding the other languages manually to this page --Aliwal2012 (talk) 17:41, 25 February 2017 (UTC)

- Yeah I'm a bit interested in what the advantage of having this on a separate page is, all previous years have just been listed on the main "[year] Super Rugby Season" page. Why change this now, especially with people pointing out that it makes things difficult with interwiki. El Dubs (talk) 07:57, 22 May 2017 (UTC)
